Insight into the Specific Adsorption of Cu(II) by a Zinc-Based Metal-Organic Framework Mediated via a Proton-Exchange Mechanism.

In the context of scarce metal resources, the one-step separation and recovery of high-value copper metal ions from secondary resources is of significant importance and presents substantial challenges. This study identified a Zn-based triazole MOF (Zn(tr)(OAc)) with accessible and noncoordinated terminal hydroxyl groups within its framework. The Zn(tr)(OAc) surpasses most currently reported Cu-specific MOF adsorbents regarding adsorption capacity and Cu selectivity.

Evolving paradigms in prostate cancer screening: a decade of bibliometric insights and technological advancements.

Objective: Prostate cancer is a major threat to global male health. This study uses bibliometric methods to analyze the dynamics and trends in prostate cancer screening research, with the aim of optimizing screening strategies and informing policy decisions.

Methods: Utilizing the Web of Science Core Collection database, this study retrieved prostate cancer screening-related literature published between 2014 and 2024, totaling 5,409 articles.

Identification of lipid metabolism related immune markers in atherosclerosis through machine learning and experimental analysis.

Background: Atherosclerosis is a significant contributor to cardiovascular disease, and conventional diagnostic methods frequently fall short in the timely and accurate detection of early-stage atherosclerosis. Abnormal lipid metabolism plays a critical role in the development of atherosclerosis. Consequently, the identification of new diagnostic markers is essential for the precise diagnosis of this condition.

Association of the atherogenic index of plasma with frailty in U.S. adults: a cross-sectional study based on NHANES.

Background: Frailty is a multifactorial syndrome associated with adverse health outcomes. The metabolic underpinnings of frailty, particularly lipid metabolism, are not fully understood. Unlike isolated lipid fractions or inflammatory markers, atherogenic index of plasma (AIP) integrates atherogenic lipid profiles and systemic inflammation.

Validity of using a semi-automated screening tool in a systematic review assessing non-specific effects of respiratory vaccines.

Background: The abstract screening process of systematic reviews can take thousands of hours by two researchers. We aim to determine the reliability and validity of Research Screener, a semi-automated abstract screening tool within a systematic review on non-specific and broader effects of respiratory vaccines on acute lower respiratory infection hospitalisations and antimicrobial prescribing patterns in young children.

Methods: We searched online databases for Medline, Embase, CINAHL, Scopus and ClinicalTrials.
