Diagnostic Value of Nutritional Risk Index and Other Indices for Predicting Sarcopenia in the Middle-Aged and Elderly Population of China Without Cancer: A ROC Curve Analysis.

Background: Emerging evidence suggests that systemic inflammatory and nutritional biomarkers, along with derived indices, could serve as predictors for sarcopenia in cancer population. This study aimed to compare these predictors, focusing on the nutritional risk index (NRI) and evaluate its diagnostic value, for sarcopenic patients without cancer.

Methods: This cross-sectional retrospective study included 1674 participants.

Hybrid Transition Metal Dichalcogenide/Graphene Microspheres for Hydrogen Evolution Reaction.

A peculiar 3D graphene-based architecture, i.e., partial reduced-Graphene Oxide Aerogel Microspheres (prGOAM), having a dandelion-like morphology with divergent microchannels to implement innovative electrocatalysts for the hydrogen evolution reaction (HER) is investigated in this paper.
