Revealing exchange bias in spin compensated systems for spintronics applications.

Antiferromagnetic materials offer potential for spintronic applications due to their resilience to magnetic field perturbations and lack of stray fields. Achieving exchange bias in these materials is crucial for certain applications; however, discovering such materials remains challenging due to their compensated spin structure. The quest for antiferromagnetic materials with exchange bias became a reality through our experimental study and theoretical simulation on and .

One-Pot Synthesis of Tumor-Targeted Gold-Doped CuS Plasmonic Nanodots for Enhanced NIR-Triggered, pH-Responsive PTT/PDT/CDT.

Copper-based sulfides are attractive candidates for NIR I and II responsive photothermal therapy but often suffer from high hydrophobicity, suboptimal photothermal conversion, and poor biostability and biocompatibility. In the present work, a rapid, one-pot synthesis method was developed to obtain Au-doped CuS (ACSH NDs) dual plasmonic nanodots. ACSH NDs exhibit excellent peroxidase-like catalytic activity for pH-responsive OH radical generation along with efficient glutathione depletion under tumor microenvironment mimicking conditions.

Impact of psychological fear and media on infectious diseases induced by carriers.

To manage risks and mitigate the transmission of infectious diseases, individuals often adopt strategies aimed at reducing interpersonal contact by implementing precautionary measures within their daily routines. These behavioral adjustments reduce the disease transmission rates. In this study, we present a novel mathematical model delineating diseases induced by carriers, incorporating multifaceted factors, such as psychological fear, media impact, and sanitation interventions.

Screening for Percutaneous Lung Cryoablation Adverse Event Risk: A Single Center Comparative Analysis to Surgical Risk Estimates.

Objective: To evaluate the relevance of established surgical risk calculators (SRCs) for predicting complications in patients undergoing percutaneous lung cryoablation (PLC).

Methods: The institution's database was queried for PLC procedures from March 2015 to May 2024, excluding those patients with concomitant local therapies or five or more lesions treated in a single setting. Demographics, frailty metrics as defined by the surgical literature, and procedural variables were collected.

Rapid and scalable ruthenium catalyzed meta-C-H alkylation enabled by resonant acoustic mixing.

Synthetic chemistry approaches for direct C-H bond alkylation offers a promising alternative to traditional functional-group-centered strategies which often involve multi-step procedures and may suffer from a variety of challenges including scalability. Here, we introduce resonant mixing as an efficient method for meta-C-H alkylation of arenes using a Ru-catalyst, avoiding the need for bulk solvents, external temperature, or light. The described methodology is highly rapid, enabling multigram-scale synthesis of meta-alkylation products within a short reaction time and achieving a very high turnover frequency.
