Bilateral Mediastinal Lymphadenectomy Is Associated With Potential Survival Advantages in Patients With Stage I Non-Small Cell Lung Cancer Who Undergo Lung Resection.

Purpose: The optimal lymphadenectomy approach for solid-dominant stage I non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC) is controversial. We compared postlobectomy survival outcomes to elucidate.

Materials And Methods: Patients diagnosed with solid-dominant stage I NSCLC between 2008 and 2015 were included and grouped according to the mode of lymphadenectomy.

High-Rate Lithium-Ion Capacitor Diode towards Multifrequency Ion/Electron-Coupling Logic Operations.

Ion/electron-coupling logic operation is recognized as the most promising approach to achieving in-depth brain-inspired computing, but the lack of high-performance ion/electron-coupling devices with high operating frequencies much restricts the fast development of this field. Accordingly, we herein report an orthorhombic niobium pentoxide (T-Nb2O5) based lithium-ion capacitor diode (CAPode) that possesses thoroughly improved performances to achieve multifrequency ion/electron-coupling logic operations. Specifically, benefiting from the unique crystal structure and fast ion-transport topology of T-Nb2O5, the constructed CAPode exhibits a high response frequency of up to 122 Hz, over three orders of magnitude higher than those of the state-of-the-art CAPodes.

Data analysis protocol for early autonomic dysfunction characterization after severe traumatic brain injury.

Background: Traumatic brain injury (TBI) disrupts normal brain tissue and functions, leading to high mortality and disability. Severe TBI (sTBI) causes prolonged cognitive, functional, and multi-organ dysfunction. Dysfunction of the autonomic nervous system (ANS) after sTBI can induce abnormalities in multiple organ systems, contributing to cardiovascular dysregulation and increased mortality.

Floatable artificial leaf to couple oxygen-tolerant CO conversion with water purification.

To enable open environment application of artificial photosynthesis, the direct utilization of environmental CO via an oxygen-tolerant reductive procedure is necessary. Herein, we introduce an in situ growth strategy for fabricating two-dimensional heterojunctions between indium porphyrin metal-organic framework (In-MOF) and single-layer graphene oxide (GO). Upon illumination, the In-MOF/GO heterostructure facilitates a tandem CO capture and photocatalytic reduction on its hydroxylated In-node, prioritizing the reduction of dilute CO even in the presence of air-level O.

Nucleus-translocated GCLM promotes chemoresistance in colorectal cancer through a moonlighting function.

Metabolic enzymes perform moonlighting functions during tumor progression, including the modulation of chemoresistance. However, the underlying mechanisms of these functions remain elusive. Here, utilizing a metabolic clustered regularly interspaced short palindromic repeats (CRISPR)-Cas9 knockout library screen, we observe that the loss of glutamate-cysteine ligase modifier subunit (GCLM), a rate-limiting enzyme in glutathione biosynthesis, noticeably increases the sensitivity of colorectal cancer (CRC) cells to platinum-based chemotherapy.
