Photocatalytic Dehalogenation of Aryl Halides Mediated by the Flexible Metal-Organic Framework MIL-53(Cr).

The catalytic potential of flexible metal-organic frameworks (MOFs) remains underexplored, particularly in solution-phase reactions. This study employs MIL-53(Cr), a prototypical "breathing" MOF capable of structural adaptation via pore size modulation, as a photocatalyst for the dehalogenation of aryl halides. Powder X-ray diffraction and pair distribution function analyses reveal that organic solvents influence pore opening, while substrates and products dynamically adjust the framework configuration during catalysis.

The Effect of Corticotomy-Assisted Orthodontic Therapy (CAOT) or Periodontally Accelerated Osteogenic Orthodontics (PAOO) on Bone Remodeling and the Health of Periodontium: A Systematic Review of Systematic Reviews.

Orthodontic treatment involves moving teeth within the alveolar ridge. Bone remodeling is associated with the activity of osteoblasts and osteoclasts. Procedures such as corticotomy-assisted orthodontic therapy (CAOT) or periodontally accelerated osteogenic orthodontics (PAOO) are intended to reduce bone density and negative stress on the grip side and therefore limit bone resorption during orthodontic movement or add bone substitute material so that the tooth does not cross the vestibular plate.

Four intestinal ultrasound scores and bowel wall thickness alone correlated well with pediatric ulcerative colitis disease activity.

Objectives: Intestinal ultrasound (IUS) is a noninvasive tool in ulcerative colitis (UC), but scoring systems have mostly been developed for adults, Crohn's disease, and flaring UC. Our aim was to evaluate the performance of bowel wall thickness (BWT) and four IUS scores in pediatric patients with newly diagnosed UC.

Methods: Patients <18 years old with suspected UC were prospectively enrolled.

Narrow Bandgap 1D Lead Iodide Perovskite with Aminophenyl Viologen.

One-dimensional (1D) perovskites (perovskitoids) occupy an important place among modern semiconducting materials, offering design flexibility together with a wide range of properties. However, most such materials have a large bandgap, which limits their application in photovoltaics. Here, we present a new 1D hybrid perovskite containing the functional cation aminophenyl viologen (APhV).

Outcomes of Out-of-Hospital Cardiac Arrest Patients Who Received Naloxone in an Emergency Medical Services System With a High Prevalence Of Opioid Overdose.

Background: Opioid-associated out-of-hospital cardiac arrest (OA-OHCA) is a subset of cardiac arrests that could benefit from measures outside of standard Advanced Cardiac Life Support (ACLS), such as naloxone.

Study Objectives: In this study, we sought to examine whether OHCA patients chosen for naloxone therapy by emergency medical services (EMS) clinicians in a system with high rates of opioid overdose would have increased rates of return of spontaneous circulation (ROSC) and survival to hospital discharge.

Methods: The study took place in an urban EMS system with a high prevalence of opioid overdose.

Adjunctive electroconvulsive therapy in the treatment of a patient with comorbid major depressive disorder, posttraumatic stress disorder, and anorexia nervosa - a case report.

Purpose: Posttraumatic stress disorder (PTSD) is still-underdiagnosed and often accompanied by other psychiatric disorders affecting treatment and outcomes.

Case Description: Here we present a case report of a 28-year-old female patient with comorbid PTSD, major depressive disorder (MDD), and anorexia nervosa (AN). The patient had been treated with various medications and attended trauma-focused psychotherapy.

The Hydrostatic Pressure Distribution in the Periodontal Ligament and the Risk of Root Resorption-A Finite Element Method (FEM) Study on the Nonlinear Innovative Model.

Excessive orthodontic force can induce inflammatory tooth root resorption due to sustained high stresses within the periodontal ligament (PDL). This study aimed to analyze the PDL pressures during upper incisor retraction using the en masse method with TISAD. The finite element method (FEM) ensured consistent conditions across cases.

Bone Remodeling of Maxilla after Retraction of Incisors during Orthodontic Treatment with Extraction of Premolars Based on CBCT Study: A Systematic Review.

Incisor retraction is often a crucial phase in ongoing orthodontic treatment, with significant implications for alveolar remodeling mechanisms. There are two prevailing theories which seek to explain this. According to the first, teeth move with the bone, while according to the second, teeth move within the bone.

Adverse Effects After Prehospital Administration of Naloxone by Bystanders: A Preliminary Study.

Objective: Opioid use disorder is a cause of significant morbidity and mortality. In order to reverse opioid overdose as quickly as possible, many institutions and municipalities have encouraged people with no professional medical training to carry and administer naloxone. This study sought to provide preliminary data for research into the rates of adverse effects of naloxone when administered by bystanders compared to Emergency Medical Services (EMS) personnel, since this question has not been studied previously.

Breast Paraffinoma: A Case Report of 20-Year-Old Mineral Oil Injection in a Male Patient.

Background: Mineral oil injection represents a dated practice of rapid and inexpensive breast augmentation. After a latency period, surrounding tissue becomes inflamed and fibrotic. Breast paraffinoma is well-documented in women; however, only 3 cases of such masses in male patients exist in the literature.

Donor-Acceptor Conjugated Acetylenic Polymers for High-Performance Bifunctional Photoelectrodes.

Due to the drastic required thermodynamical requirements, a photoelectrode material that can function as both a photocathode and a photoanode remains elusive. In this work, we demonstrate for the first time that, under simulated solar light and without co-catalysts, donor-acceptor conjugated acetylenic polymers (CAPs) exhibit both impressive oxygen evolution (OER) and hydrogen evolution (HER) photocurrents in alkaline and neutral medium, respectively. In particular, poly(2,4,6-tris(4-ethynylphenyl)-1,3,5-triazine) (pTET) provides a benchmark OER photocurrent density of ~200 μA cm at 1.

Oscillatory Responses to Tactile Stimuli of Different Intensity.

Tactile perception encompasses several submodalities that are realized with distinct sensory subsystems. The processing of those submodalities and their interactions remains understudied. We developed a paradigm consisting of three types of touch tuned in terms of their force and velocity for different submodalities: discriminative touch (haptics), affective touch (C-tactile touch), and knismesis (alerting tickle).

Delay in hospital presentation is the main reason large vessel occlusion stroke patients do not receive intravenous thrombolysi.

Objectives: Intravenous thrombolysis (IVT) and endovascular therapy (EVT) are the mainstays of treatment for large vessel occlusion stroke (LVOS). Prior studies have examined why patients have not received IVT, the most cited reasons being last-known-well (LKW) to hospital arrival of >4.5 hours and minor/resolving stroke symptoms.

Comparison of Diagnostic Validity of Cephalometric Analyses of the ANB Angle and Tau Angle for Assessment of the Sagittal Relationship of Jaw and Mandible.

Background: Cephalometric analysis is an essential tool used in orthodontic diagnosis and treatment planning. The aim of this study was to evaluate the reliability and repeatability of new cephalometric points introduced in Tau angle analysis, in contrast to the gold standard, which is the analysis of the ANB angle. For this purpose, an attempt was made to assess the repeatability and reliability of the introduction of anthropometric points by evaluating both inter- and intraobserver parameters, as well as the agreement among the orthodontists participating in the study.

Studying perceptual bias in favor of the from-above Necker cube perspective in a goal-directed behavior.

When viewing a completely ambiguous image, different interpretations can switch involuntarily due to internal top-down processing. In the case of the Necker cube, an entirely ambiguous stimulus, observers often display a bias in perceptual switching between two interpretations based on their perspectives: one with a from-above perspective (FA) and the other with a from-below perspective (FB). Typically, observers exhibit a priori top-down bias in favor of the FA interpretation, which may stem from a statistical tendency in everyday life where we more frequently observe objects from above.

A Shorter Door-In-Door-Out Time Is Associated with Improved Outcome in Large Vessel Occlusion Stroke.

Endovascular thrombectomy (EVT) significantly improves outcomes in large vessel occlusion stroke (LVOS). When a patient with a LVOS arrives at a hospital that does not perform EVT, emergent transfer to an endovascular stroke center (ESC) is required. Our objective was to determine the association between door-in-door-out time (DIDO) and 90-day outcomes in patients undergoing EVT.

Endocrine Effect of Some Mycotoxins on Humans: A Clinical Review of the Ways to Mitigate the Action of Mycotoxins.

Fungi such as spp. and spp., which are commonly found in the environment, pose a serious global health problem.

Female patients delay seeking medical care with alcohol-associated acute pancreatitis.

Background/objective: Alcohol consumption is increasing in women, who more frequently report abdominal symptoms compared to men. We aimed to examine differences in presentation of acute pancreatitis [AP] in male and female patients hospitalized with alcohol-associated AP.

Methods: We analyzed 138 patients enrolled in an ongoing case-crossover study of alcohol-associated AP conducted across 5 medical centers in the U.

Abnormal spectral and scale-free properties of resting-state EEG in girls with Rett syndrome.

Spontaneous EEG contains important information about neuronal network properties that is valuable for understanding different neurological and psychiatric conditions. Rett syndrome (RTT) is a rare neurodevelopmental disorder, caused by mutation in the MECP2 gene. RTT is characterized by severe motor impairments that prevent adequate assessment of cognitive functions.

Strong Dipolar Repulsion of One-Dimensional Interfacial Excitons in Monolayer Lateral Heterojunctions.

Repulsive and long-range exciton-exciton interactions are crucial for the exploration of one-dimensional (1D) correlated quantum phases in the solid state. However, the experimental realization of nanoscale confinement of a 1D dipolar exciton has thus far been limited. Here, we demonstrate atomically precise lateral heterojunctions based at transitional-metal dichalcogenides (TMDCs) as a platform for 1D dipolar excitons.

PACAP and VIP Neuropeptides' and Receptors' Effects on Appetite, Satiety and Metabolism.

The overwhelming increase in the prevalence of obesity and related disorders in recent years is one of the greatest threats to the global healthcare system since it generates immense healthcare costs. As the prevalence of obesity approaches epidemic proportions, the importance of elucidating the mechanisms regulating appetite, satiety, body metabolism, energy balance and adiposity has garnered significant attention. Currently, gastrointestinal (GI) bariatric surgery remains the only approach capable of achieving successful weight loss.

Bottom-Up Synthesis of Crystalline Covalent Organic Framework Nanosheets, Nanotubes, and Kippah Vesicles: An Odd-Even Effect Induction.

Few-layer organic nanosheets are becoming increasingly attractive as two-dimensional (2D) materials due to their precise atomic connectivity and tailor-made pores. However, most strategies for synthesizing nanosheets rely on surface-assisted methods or top-down exfoliation of stacked materials. A bottom-up approach with well-designed building blocks would be the convenient pathway to achieve the bulk-scale synthesis of 2D nanosheets with uniform size and crystallinity.

Background: Root resorption is one of the complications of orthodontic treatment, and has a varied and unclear aetiology.

Objective: To evaluate the relationship between upper incisor resorption and contact with the incisive canal and the risk of resorption during orthodontic treatment associated with upper incisor retraction and torque control.

Search Methods: According to PRISMA guidelines, the main research question was defined in PICO.

Factors associated with door-in-door-out times in large vessel occlusion stroke patients undergoing endovascular therapy.

Introduction: In the management of large vessel occlusion stroke (LVOS), patients are frequently evaluated first at a non-endovascular stroke center and later transferred to an endovascular stroke center (ESC) for endovascular treatment (EVT). The door-in-door-out time (DIDO) is frequently used as a benchmark for transferring hospitals though there is no universally accepted nor evidenced-based DIDO time. The goal of this study was to identify factors affecting DIDO times in LVOS patients who ultimately underwent EVT.
