Pure Mg Cathode for Highly Efficient Single-Layer Organic Light-Emitting Diodes.

Highly efficient single-layer organic light-emitting diodes (OLEDs) are demonstrated by using a pure Mg cathode that is seeded with a small amount of Ag nucleation sites. Bis(4-phenylthieno[3,2-]pyridinato-,C2')(acetylacetonate)iridium(III) (PO-01)-doped devices with three-, two-, and one-region doping configurations exhibit maximum external quantum efficiency (EQE) values of 22.8%, 21.

MicroRNA-204-5p Ameliorates Neurological Injury via the EphA4/PI3K/AKT Signaling Pathway in Ischemic Stroke.

Ischemic stroke has extremely high mortality and disability rates worldwide. miR-204-5p has been reported to be associated with neurological diseases. However, the relationship linking miR-204-5p to ischemic stroke and its molecular mechanism remain unclear.

Predicting Outcome in Combination Treatment of TACE and Camrelizumab for Advanced Hepatocellular carcinoma: Tumor Hypervascularity and Reactive Cutaneous Capillary Endothelial Proliferation.

Objective: To validate the robust predictive values of tumor vascularity and reactive cutaneous capillary endothelial proliferation (RCCEP) in combination treatment of transarterial chemoembolization (TACE) and camrelizumab for patients with advanced hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) and then select the potential candidates who would survive best from such treatment.

Methods: The clinical data of 113 patients with advanced HCC treated with TACE and camrelizumab from January 2019 to December 2021 were analyzed retrospectively. Mann Whitney -test was used to evaluate the correlation between vascular distribution and RCCEP and tumor response; Kaplan Meier technique was used to evaluate time to progress (TTP) and overall survival (OS), and log rank test was used for comparison; multivariate Cox regression analysis was used to evaluate the related influencing factors.

Transarterial Chemoembolization Combined with Sorafenib in Patients with BCLC Stage C Hepatocellular Carcinoma.

Purpose: Transcatheter arterial chemoembolization (TACE) and targeted therapy have become common methods in the treatment of advanced hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC). The purpose of this study was to evaluate the safety and efficacy of TACE combined with sorafenib (TACE-sorafenib) and TACE alone for the treatment of Barcelona clinical stage C HCC.

Methods: The clinical data of 75 patients with BCLC stage C HCC who received TACE-sorafenib or TACE as the initial treatment were retrospectively analyzed.

Optical design of connecting electrodes for tandem organic light-emitting diodes.

Connecting electrodes play a crucial role to assist charge injection into the adjacent electroluminescent units in tandem organic light-emitting diodes (OLEDs). In this study, we demonstrate that Mg:Ag alloy is an effective connecting electrode for bottom- and top-emitting tandem OLEDs. Optical cavity design and simulation are also conducted to predict the luminance of tandem OLEDs.

[Analysis of risk factors for spontaneous rupture of hepatocellular carcinoma].

Objective: To assess the risk factors for spontaneous rupture of hepatocellular carcinoma (SRHC).

Methods: A retrospective analysis of 34 consecutive patients with SRHC treated by emergency interventional embolization in our hospital from July 2003 to July 2011 was conducted. General condition, laboratory examination and imaging data were analyzed, and compared with the data of 34 patients with primary hepatocellular carcinoma but without rupture, randomly selected from 215 concurrent patients.
