What about electrochemical behaviors for aurivillius-phase bismuth tungstate? Capacitive or pseudocapacitive.

Researchers mainly explore the mechanism of pseudocapacitance through studying electrode materials with Faraday pseudocapacitive behavior. Here, we found that BiWO, a typical Aurivillius phase material with pseudo-perovskite structure, showed nearly ideal pseudocapacitive behavior. The cyclic voltammetry curve is approximately rectangular in shape, with no redox peaks, which is similar to that of carbon materials.

Electrode Materials of Cobaltous Fluoride for Supercapacitor and Electrocatalysis Applications.

Herein, CoF was synthesized by a solvothermal method. The characterization results of the phase and morphology of the sample show that it was successfully synthesized and its morphology is composed of micron particles with uneven size and shape. The electrochemical test results of SCs in different electrolytes show that CoF has electrochemical activity only in alkaline electrolytes.

Enhancing the Kinetic Process in Biphasic Crystalline NiWO /Amorphous Co-B Electrode Materials toward Energy Storage with Ultrahigh Rate Performance.

Here, we report a two-phase crystalline NiWO /amorphous Co-B nanocomposite as an electrode material for supercapacitors, which is effectively synthesized via a simple hydrothermal method and chemical precipitation method. The obtained NiWO /Co-B exhibits crystal-amorphous contact, which makes it have more active sites than other crystalline-crystalline phase boundaries, thereby enhancing electron transport. The NiWO /Co-B electrode with the best mass ratio of crystalline and amorphous exhibits a great specific capacitance and excellent cycle durability.

Realizing high-performance and low-cost lithium-ion capacitor by regulating kinetic matching between ternary nickel cobalt phosphate microspheres anode with ultralong-life and super-rate performance and watermelon peel biomass-derived carbon cathode.

Lithium-ion capacitors (LICs) are emerging as one of the most advanced energy storage devices by combining the virtues of both supercapacitors (SCs) and lithium-ion batteries (LIBs). However, the kinetic and capacity mismatch between anode and cathode is the main obstacle to wide applications of LICs. Therefore, the effective strategy of constructing a high-performance LIC is to improve the rate and cycle performance of the anode and the specific capacity of the cathode.

Crystal Phase-Controlled Synthesis of the CoP@CoP Heterostructure with 3D Nanowire Networks for High-Performance Li-Ion Capacitor Applications.

The paramount focus in the construction of lithium-ion capacitors (LICs) is the development of anode materials with high reversible capacity and fast kinetics to overcome the mismatch of kinetics and capacity between the anode and cathode. Herein, a strategy is presented for the controllable synthesis of cobalt-based phosphides with various morphologies by adjusting the time of the phosphidation process, including 3D hierarchical needle-stacked diabolo-shaped CoP nanorods, 3D hierarchical stick-stacked diabolo-shaped CoP nanorods, and 3D hierarchical heterostructure CoP@CoP nanorods. 3D hierarchical nanostructures and a highly conductive project to accommodate volume changes are rational designs to achieve a robust construction, effective electron-ion transportation, and rapid kinetics characteristics, thus leading to excellent cycling stability and rate performance.

Boosting the performance of cobalt molybdate nanorods by introducing nanoflake-like cobalt boride to form a heterostructure for aqueous hybrid supercapacitors.

Binary transition metal oxides have received extensive attention because of their multiple oxidation states. However, due to the inherent vices of poor electronic/ionic conductivities, their practical performance as supercapacitor material is limited. Herein, a cobalt molybdate/cobalt boride (CoMoO/Co-B) composite is constructed with cobalt boride nanoflake-like as a conductive additive in CoMoO nanorods using a facile water bath deposition process and liquid-phase reduction method.

Intravenous flurbiprofen axetil enhances analgesic effect of opioids in patients with refractory cancer pain by increasing plasma β-endorphin.

Background: The study aimed to investigate the analgesic effect of a combination of intravenous flurbiprofen axetil and opioids, and evaluate the relationship between refractory pain relief and plasma β-endorphin levels in cancer patients.

Materials And Methods: A total of 120 cancer patients was randomly divided into two groups, 60 patients took orally morphine sulfate sustained-release tablets in group A, and another 60 patients receiving the combination treatment of intravenous flurbiprofen axetil and opioid drugs in group B. After 7 days, pain relief, quality of life improvement and side effects were evaluated.

Co-transduction of ribosomal protein L23 enhances the therapeutic efficacy of adenoviral-mediated p53 gene transfer in human gastric cancer.

Induction of murine double minute 2 (MDM2) expression is thought to be a determinant of resistance to p53 gene therapy for cancer. Previous studies have revealed that ribosomal protein L23 (RPL23) inhibits MDM2-mediated p53 degradation through direct binding to MDM2. In addition, ectopically expressed RPL23 was reported to interact with MDM2 in both the nucleus and cytoplasm, by which RPL23 indirectly inhibited MDM2-p53 binding.

MiR-26a regulates cell cycle and anoikis of human esophageal adenocarcinoma cells through Rb1-E2F1 signaling pathway.

Resistance to anoikis, the subtype of apoptosis induced by lack of matrix adhesion, contributes to malignant transformation and development of metastasis. MicroRNAs play key regulatory roles in tumorigenesis and metastasis. In this study, we described that miR-26a, which is usually downregulated in tumor cells, is involved in the acquisition of anoikis-resistance of human esophageal adenocarcinoma (EA) cells.

Peritumoral lymphatic microvessel density is related to poor prognosis in lung adenocarcinoma: A retrospective study of 65 cases.

Although recent investigations have identified that lymphangiogenesis is associated with regional lymph node metastasis and tumor prognosis in non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC), peritumoral lymphatic microvessel density (LMVD) and its prognostic significance in lung adenocarcinoma remain unknown. In the present study, we assessed peritumoral LMVD in lung adenocarcinoma and investigated its correlation with patient prognosis. Using immunohistochemistry (SP method), the D2-40-positive peritumoral LMVD count in lung adenocarcinoma was found to be 11.

Giant adenocarcinoma of unknown origin penetrating from the pelvic cavity to subcutaneous tissue: A case report and review of the literature.

In this study, we present a case of a 43-year-old female patient who was admitted to our hospital due to a giant mass on the left buttock. Imaging tests revealed that the mass was a solid-cystic tumor with a large size of 143×430×180 mm, penetrating from the pelvic cavity to the subcutaneous tissue. Pathology tests indicated a metastatic mucinous adenocarcinoma which was most likely of gastrointestinal origin.

Tumor-associated macrophages infiltration is associated with peritumoral lymphangiogenesis and poor prognosis in lung adenocarcinoma.

Tumor-associated macrophages (TAMs) have been implicated in promoting tumor progression. Nowadays, adenocarcinoma has surpassed squamous cell carcinoma as the most frequent type of lung cancer, but in lung adenocarcinoma, the correlation of TAMs with lymphangiogenesis patients remains unclear. The aim of this study was to examine the relationship between TAMs and lymphangiogenesis and the lung adenocarcinoma patients' prognosis.

Induction of apoptosis and inhibition of cell migration and tube-like formation by dihydroartemisinin in murine lymphatic endothelial cells.

Dihydroartemisinin (DHA) is a semisynthesized agent from the artemisinin first extracted from the Chinese plant Artemisia annua. Previous studies have shown that artemisinin derivates, apart from their antimalarial activity, possess antitumor, antiangiogenic, and anti-inflammatory effects. In the present investigation, DHA was found to have a potent ability in influencing lymphatic endothelial cells (LECs) behavior.
