Article Synopsis
  • The formation of carbon-carbon (C-C) bonds is crucial for converting CO into high-energy carbon products, with ongoing debates about the best methods to achieve this.
  • Recent computational studies suggest that the OC-COH coupling pathway may be more efficient than the traditional CO dimerization pathway under certain conditions, though experimental validation has been limited.
  • Using novel low-coordinated copper catalysts, researchers achieved a 77.8% efficiency in producing carbon products, and experimental techniques confirmed the presence of a key intermediate, supporting the OC-COH pathway for CO reduction.

Introduction: Successful ST-segment elevation myocardial infarction (STEMI) management is time-sensitive and is based on prompt reperfusion mainly to reduce patient mortality. It has evolved from a single hospital care to an integrated regional network approach over the last decades. This prospective study, named the China STEMI Care Project (CSCAP), aims to show how implementation of different types of integrated regional STEMI care networks can improve the reperfusion treatment rate, shorten the total duration of myocardial ischaemia and lead to mortality reduction step by step.

Invasive fungal infection is one of the major complication of severe burns which can induce local or systemic inflammatory response and cause serious substantial damage to the patient. The incidence of fungal infection for burn victims is increasing dramatically during recent years. This guideline, organized by Chinese Society of Burn Surgeons, aims to standardize the diagnosis, prevention and treatment of burn invasive fungal infection.

Objective: To investigate apoptosis in the thyroid of Graves disease (GD) induced by thyroid arterial embolization.

Materials And Methods: Forty one patients with clinically and laboratorily ascertained GD were treated with thyroid arterial embolization and followed up for 3-54 months following embolization. Prior to embolization and at 1, 3, 6, 12 and 36 months following embolization, thyroid autoimmunue antibodies were tested respectively, including thyroid stimulating antibody (TSAb), thyroglobulin antibody (TGAb) and thyroid microsomal antibody (TMAb).

Objective: To study the antitumor effect of saponin extracted from Tupistra chinensis Baker (STCB) against mouse sarcoma S-180 cell proliferation in vitro and in vivo and explore the primary mechanism of this effect.

Methods: Cytotoxic effect of STCB on S-180 cells in vitro was evaluated by MTT colorimetry, and its effect against in vitro tumor growth was tested in Kunmin mice bearing S-180 implanted tumor. The morphological and ultrastructural changes of S-180 cells after saponin treatment in vitro were examined with light and transmission electron microscope.
