Generating Beta Zeolite Nanosheets of Intergrown Polymorph B and C Using Polycationic Structure-Directing Agent.

Zeolitic nanosheets possess great potential in catalysis due to their enhanced transport property and accessibility toward bulky molecules compared to conventional micron- meter scale crystals. However, the generation of Beta zeolite nanosheets, which are crucial for industrial catalysis, is still challenging for its intergrowth nature. In this work, aluminosilicate Beta nanosheets of ca.

Metatranscriptomic time series insight into antibiotic resistance genes and mobile genetic elements in wastewater systems under antibiotic selective pressure.

Background: Wastewater systems are usually considered antibiotic resistance hubs connecting human society and the natural environment. Antibiotic usage can increase the abundance of both ARGs (antibiotic resistance genes) and MGEs (mobile gene elements). Understanding the transcriptomic profiles of ARGs and MGEs remains a major research goal.

Rescue RM/CS-AKI by blocking strategy with one-dose anti-myoglobin RabMAb.

Rhabdomyolysis or Crush syndrome-related AKI (RM/CS-AKI) has high mortality, and there is no effective early on-site treatment method. The critical pathogenic factor of RM/CS-AKI is the excessive free myoglobin (Mb) in blood circulation. Here, based on the concept of creating a "mobile barrier", we develop an anti-Mb rabbit monoclonal antibody (RabMAb) with high specificity, affinity, stability, and broad species reactivity.

Associations between metabolic syndrome and depression, and the mediating role of inflammation: Based on the NHANES database.

Background: Individuals with metabolic syndrome (MetS) are at a higher risk of developing depressive symptoms, with inflammation hypothesized to mediate this association. This study used data from the National Health and Nutrition Examination Survey (NHANES) (2015-2020) to investigate the relationship between MetS and depression and assess the mediating role of inflammatory markers.

Methods: This cross-sectional study included 20,520 participants.

Association of willingness to use hormonal contraception with knowledge: a national survey.

Objective: To determine if willingness to use and concern with using hormonal contraception (HC) is associated with knowledge about HC.

Study Design: We conducted an online cross-sectional survey of self-identified women, US residents 18 and older using Amazon Mechanical Turk and ResearchMatch.org.
