Foaming ink for 3D-printing of ultralight and hyperelastic graphene architectures: Multiscale design and ultra-efficient electromagnetic interference shielding.

Extrusion-based printing of macroscopic architectures layer-by-layer offers new opportunities for constructing customized electromagnetic interference (EMI) shielding materials. However, current research primarily focuses on improving the printability of material inks by increasing contents and adding various modifiers, controllable construction of ultralight and robust macro-architectures with structural design at both macro- and micro-scales is still challenging. Herein, we develop a graphene oxide foaming ink enriched with air bubbles for direct-ink writing, enabling the creation of macroscopic graphene architectures with arbitrary geometries.

TTC7A Variants Results in Gastrointestinal Defects and Immunodeficiency Syndrome: Case Series and Literature Review.

Gastrointestinal Defects and Immunodeficiency Syndrome-1 (GIDID-1), caused by abnormalities in TTC7A, is an autosomal recessive disorder characterized by multiple gastrointestinal malformations and immune deficiencies, often accompanied by inflammatory bowel disease (IBD). This condition typically results in poor treatment outcomes and is usually fatal in early infancy. This paper examined the genetic abnormalities and clinical features of GIDID by analyzing data from three children and one fetus with gastrointestinal dysfunction and immune deficiency associated with TTC7A abnormalities at our hospital, and reviewed reported cases worldwide.

The association of visceral fat metabolism score with hyperuricemia-evidence from NHANES 1999-2018.

Objectives: Despite substantial evidence that visceral obesity is an epidemiological risk factor for hyperuricemia (HUA), studies on the connection between the Metabolic Score for Visceral Fat (METS-VF) and HUA remain insufficient. This research focused on METS-VF's potential role as a risk factor for HUA.

Methods: Notably, 8,659 participants from the National Health and Nutrition Examination Survey (NHANES) from 1999 to 2018 were enrolled in this study.

Plant secondary metabolites against biotic stresses for sustainable crop protection.

Sustainable agriculture practices are indispensable for achieving a hunger-free world, especially as the global population continues to expand. Biotic stresses, such as pathogens, insects, and pests, severely threaten global food security and crop productivity. Traditional chemical pesticides, while effective, can lead to environmental degradation and increase pest resistance over time.

Mesoporous Silica Nanoparticle Rigid Anchor Attached Pt Complex for Catalytic H/D Exchange of Aromatic Substrates.

A Pt(II) aqua complex supported by mesoporous silica nanoparticle (MSN)-immobilized sulfonated CNN pincer ligand featuring a rigid SiO tether was prepared. This hybrid material was tested as a catalyst in H/D exchange reactions of C(sp)-H bonds of selected aromatic substrates and DO-2,2,2-trifluoroethanol- (TFE-) mixtures or CDCOD acting as a source of exchangeable deuterium. The catalyst immobilization served as a means to not only enable the catalyst's recyclability but also minimize the coordination of sulfonate groups and the metal centers originating from different catalyst's moieties that would preserve reactive Pt(OH) fragments needed for catalytic C-H bond activation.
