Ternary ZnS/ZnO/graphitic carbon nitride (gCN) photocatalysts were prepared by coupling gCN sheets with ZnO nanorods under solvothermal conditions followed by sulfurization using NaS. SEM and TEM analyses show that small-sized ZnS particles (ca. 7.

The diverse structural tunability of 2-dimensional π-stacked layered metal-organic frameworks (2D MOFs) enables the control of charge carrier mobility to achieve specific photoconductive characteristics. This study demonstrates the potential of various theoretical methodologies and frameworks in establishing a correlation between structure and functionality for such purposes. Through a focus on the archetypal Ni(HITP) 2D MOF, we examine the impact of quantum confinement and stacking fault defects on the absorption spectra using our recently-developed Frenkel-Holstein Hamiltonian.

: Our aim was to perform a retrospective analysis of the volume of cervical screening tests, the number of patients treated with an excision method, and the incidence of invasive and non-invasive cervical during a pandemic and pre-pandemic period of 24 months. : The study compared 404 patients who underwent cervical cone biopsy for cervical cancer. The study examined patients' specimens based on histopathological characteristics and categorized cervical lesions based on pap smear.

This systematic review evaluates the clinical outcomes and molecular predictors of response to pembrolizumab in patients with advanced and metastatic cervical cancer. We adhered to the PRISMA guidelines for systematic reviews, conducting a database search in PubMed, Scopus, and Embase. The eligibility criteria centered on clinical outcomes, including the overall survival (OS), progression-free survival (PFS), and immune-related biomarkers post-pembrolizumab therapy.
