Purpose: This study aimed to assess the prognostic and predictive value of a circulating hematological signature (CHS) and to develop a CHS-based nomogram for predicting prognosis and guiding individualized chemotherapy in non-metastatic nasopharyngeal carcinoma (NPC) patients.
Patients And Methods: NPC patients were recruited between January 2014 and December 2017 at the Jiangxi Cancer Hospital. The CHS was constructed based on a series of hematological indicators.
The extensive use of sulfasalazine (SSZ) antibiotics has brought potential threats to aquatic ecosystems and human health. Thus, necessary measures for the removal of SSZ must be taken to prevent arbitrary antibiotic exposure to the aquatic environment. However, not all the recent photocatalysts that have been used for the degradation of SSZ could not achieve the controlled release of SSZ and hence are losing their medicinal values.

It exhibits strong fluorescence in an aqueous dispersion and can be applied as a luminescent probe for Cr(VI) (CrO and CrO) with high selectivity and sensitivity (LOD for CrO and CrO were below 0.35 μM and 0.

In this study, a novel porous metal-organic framework (MOF) functionalized with amino and triazole moieties has been synthesized. Attributed to the high affinity to CO and unsaturated zinc centers, the MOF exhibits high catalytic activity for the CO to epoxide cycloaddition reaction, with a turnover number value of up to 10 000 per cycle, and can be reused at least for 20 cycles.

Xanthene dyes are eco-friendly organic dyes used in photocatalysis.

One new pyridine-3,4-dicarboxylhydrazidate-coordinated compound [Zn(pdh)] 1 (pdh = pyridine-3,4-dicarboxylhydrazidate) was obtained under the hydrothermal conditions. Noteworthily, the pdh molecules in the title compound originated from the ligand in situ reaction between organic pyridine-3,4-dicarboxylic acid (pdca) and NH·HO. X-ray single-crystal diffraction analysis revealed that the pdh ligands exhibit a special μ-bridging mode in compound 1, which link Zn(II) centers into a 2D layered structure.

Linkage analysis revealed that the disease gene of the Chinese BDB1 family was linked to ROR2 locus. Mutational hot spot of ROR2 gene was amplified by polymerase chain reaction (PCR) and sequenced directly.
