Background: Fruquintinib, a VEGFR1-3 tyrosine kinase inhibitor, is approved for treating refractory metastatic colorectal cancer. Recent clinical practice has shown that combining fruquintinib with programmed cell death protein 1 (PD-1) inhibitors can achieve better efficacy.The objective of this study is to assess the efficacy and safety of combining PD-1inhibitors with fruquintinib.

Background: Acute kidney injury after CRS + HIPEC is a serious postoperative complication, but only a few studies have reported its postoperative risk factors. In addition, there are large discrepancies in the results of available observational studies.

Methods: We searched The Cochrane Library, Embase, Web of Science,and PubMed to identify observational studies reporting risk factors for AKI after CRS + HIPEC.

Purpose: This study investigated the relationship between Geriatric Nutritional Risk Index (GNRI), and all-cause, cardiovascular (CVD) mortality, in individuals with osteopenia and osteoporosis.

Methods: Using NHANES data from 2005 to 2019, 6,824 participants diagnosed with osteopenia and osteoporosis were analyzed. Participants were categorized based on GNRI tertiles, and statistical methods like the fitted curves, Kaplan-Meier curves, cox regression, and subgroup analyses were employed.

The practical application of Li-S batteries, which hold great potential as energy storage devices, is impeded by various challenges, such as capacity degradation caused volume change, polysulfide shuttling, poor electrode kinetics, and safety concerns. Binder plays a crucial role in suppressing volume change of cathode side, thereby enhancing the electrochemical performance of Li-S batteries. In this research, a novel network binder (SA-Co-PEDOT) composed of sodium alginate is presented, Co ions as cross-linking agent and PEDOT as an electronic conductor.

To satisfy the demand for high safety and energy density in energy storage devices, all-solid-state lithium metal batteries with solid polymer electrolytes (SPE) replacing traditional liquid electrolytes and separators have been proposed and are increasingly regarded as one of the most promising candidates as next-generation energy storage systems. In this study, poly(vinylidene fluoride)-hexafluoropropylene/lignosulfonic acid (PVDF-HFP/LSA) composite polymer electrolyte (CPE) membranes with a micro area interface wetting structure were successfully prepared by incorporating LSA into the PVDF-HFP polymer matrix. The enhanced interaction between the polar functional group in LSA and the C═O in -methylpyrrolidone (NMP) hinders the evaporation of solvent NMP, thus creating a micro area wetting structure, which offers a flexible region for the chain segment movement and enlarging the area of the amorphous zone in PVDF-HFP.

Article Synopsis
  • Solid-state lithium batteries (SSLBs) are promising due to their thermal stability and energy density, but face challenges like low electrolyte conductivity and interfacial issues.
  • A new composite solid electrolyte, HMOF-DNSE, integrates a dual selective confinement interface structure that improves lithium ion transfer by restricting the movement of larger anions.
  • Laboratory results show that this material achieves a high ionic conductivity, excellent electrochemical performance with lasting capacity retention, suggesting a potential breakthrough in the development of efficient SSLBs.

High dielectric constants in organic semiconductors have been identified as a central challenge for the improvement in not only piezoelectric, pyroelectric, and ferroelectric effects but also photoelectric conversion efficiency in OPVs, carrier mobility in OFETs, and charge density in charge-trapping memories. Herein, we report an ultralong persistence length ( ≈ 41 nm) effect of spiro-fused organic nanopolymers on dielectric properties, together with excitonic and charge carrier behaviors. The state-of-the-art nanopolymers, namely, nanopolyspirogrids (NPSGs), are synthesized via the simple cross-scale Friedel-Crafts polygridization of AB-type nanomonomers.

Nanocomposite hydrogels with interpenetrating polymer network (IPN) structure based on poly(ethylene glycol) methyl ether methacrylate modified ZnO (ZnO-PEGMA) and 4-azidobenzoic agarose (AG-N3) were prepared by a one-pot strategy under UV irradiation. The hydrogels exhibited a highly macroporous spongelike structure, and the pore size decreased with the increase of the ZnO-PEGMA content. Due to the entanglement and favorable interactions between the two crosslinked networks, the IPN hydrogels exhibited excellent mechanical strength and light transmittance.
