Recurrent ocular syphilis in a patient living with HIV.

A 26-year-old male living with human immunodeficiency virus (HIV) and who had previously been treated for ocular syphilis presented to the Emergency Department with progressive vision loss and uveitis. The efficacy of standard management for neurosyphilis in HIV and recurrence was examined.

Low-Temperature Adsorption and Diffusion of Methanol in ZIF-8 Nanoparticle Films.

The adsorption of methanol by a zeolitic imidazolate framework-8 (ZIF-8) nanoparticle thin film was studied in situ using temperature-programmed desorption and X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy under low-temperature, low-pressure conditions. Partial pore penetration was observed at 90 K, but upon increasing the exposure temperature of the film to 130 K pore penetration was significantly enhanced. Although many studies exist involving bulk powders, this is the first work to our knowledge that demonstrates the ability to control and monitor the entry of a molecule into a metal organic framework (MOF) film in situ using temperature.
