Endocrine therapies targeting the estrogen receptor (ER/ESR1) are the cornerstone to treat ER-positive breast cancers patients, but resistance often limits their effectiveness. Notable progress has been made although the fragmented way data is reported has reduced their potential impact. Here, we introduce EstroGene2.

Herein, the ensemble effect of binary types of Rh single atoms (Rh-N and Rh-O) on TiO-embedded carbon nanofiber (Rh-TiO/CNF) is reported, which serves as potent active sites for high-performance HER in anion exchange membrane water electrolyzer (AEMWE). Density functional theory (DFT) analyses support the experimental observations, highlighting the critical role of binary types of Rh single atoms facilitated by the TiO sites.

We have devised a novel drainage technique that combines the advantages of both aggressive and symptom-guided drainage.
Method: This was a prospective intervention trial in which patients with malignant pleural effusion, drained with IPC, were initially given one week of 'high-intensity' drainage on an outpatient basis using a low-pressure suction pump, followed by symptom-based home drainage using vacuum bottles.
