Background: Automated insulin delivery (AID) systems studies are upsurging, half of which were published in the last 5 years. We aimed to evaluate the efficacy and safety of AID systems in patients with type 1 diabetes mellitus (T1DM).

Methods: We searched PubMed, Embase, Cochrane Library, Web of Science, and ClinicalTrials.

Insufficiently managed incisional (INC) pain severely affects patients' life quality and rehabilitation after a major operation. However, mechanisms underlying INC pain still remain poorly understood. A mouse model of INC pain was established by skin plus deep muscle incision.

Objectives: Abnormal programmed cell death in immune cells is associated with autoimmune diseases, but the patterns of programmed cell death in systemic lupus erythematosus (SLE) and especially lupus nephritis (LN) remain unclear. This study aims to explore the association between SLE, LN, and immune cell death patterns.

Methods: Bulk RNA sequencing (bulk RNA-seq) and single-cell RNA sequencing (scRNA-seq) data were downloaded from the Gene Expression Omnibus (GEO) database.

Allergic contact dermatitis (ACD) is a common skin disease featured with skin inflammation and a mixed itch/pain sensation. The itch/pain causes the desire to scratch, affecting both physical and psychological aspects of patients. Nevertheless, the mechanisms underlying itch/pain sensation of ACD still remain elusive.

CsPbI perovskite quantum dots (QDs) have attracted much attention in the field of solar cells because of their excellent photovoltaic properties. Conventional modification of long-chain insulating ligands can ensure good dispersion and film-forming stability of QDs, but the limitations of their low defect passivation ability and poor charge transport ability will make them fail to achieve high efficiency in the corresponding solar cell devices. In this study, by introducing "Benzylphosphonic acid" short-chain ligands to the surface of CsPbI QDs, the ligands were re-administered on the surface during the preparation of the CsPbI QDs as well as during the film-forming process.

Excessive deposition of monosodium urate (MSU) crystal in the joint results in gout arthritis, which triggers severe pain and affects life quality. Oxidative stress is a pivotal mechanism that contributes to etiology of gout pain and inflammation. Here we investigated whether activating Nrf2, which plays important roles in regulating endogenous antioxidant response, would attenuate gout arthritis via promoting antioxidant signaling in joint tissues.

Article Synopsis
  • - The buried interface of the perovskite layer crucially impacts film morphology, defect formation, and aging resistance, affecting the quality and performance of perovskite solar cells, especially with FAPbI that tends to degrade from this interface early on.
  • - Introducing proline hydrochloride (PF), which has a structured design, serves as a medium at the buried interface, creating a stable α-phase FAPbI template and preventing degradation from phase transitions.
  • - This approach leads to a remarkable solar cell efficiency of 24.61% (with a certified 23.51%), setting a record for flexible perovskite solar cells, while also demonstrating excellent stability in both shelf-life and mechanical tests. *

Calcium phosphate cement (CPC) has attracted extensive interest from surgeons and materials scientists. However, the collapsibility of calcium phosphate cement limits its clinical application. In this work, a gel network of SA-CA formed by the reaction of citric acid (CA) and sodium alginate (SA) was introduced into the α-TCP/α-CSH composite.

Background: Complex regional pain syndrome type-I (CRPS-I) causes excruciating pain that affect patients' life quality. However, the mechanisms underlying CRPS-I are incompletely understood, which hampers the development of target specific therapeutics.

Methods: The mouse chronic post-ischemic pain (CPIP) model was established to mimic CRPS-I.

Background: Lupus nephritis (LN) is among the most common complication of systemic lupus erythematosus (SLE) with high mortality and morbidity. The analysis of LN kidney's local immune response through single-cell and spatial transcriptome enables the study of potential therapeutic targets.

Methods: By single cell sequencing and spatial transcriptome, we profile cells from LN kidney and normal kidney tissues to characterize cellular composition and elucidate the potential upstream monocyte/macrophage (Mono/MΦ) initiating the auto-immune response.

Background: Epstein-Barr virus (EBV) is considered a carcinogenic virus, which is associated with high risk for poor prognosis in lymphoma patients, and there has been especially no satisfying and effective treatment for EBV+ lymphoma. We aimed to identify the immunological microenvironment molecular signatures which lead to the poor prognosis of EBV+ lymphoma patients.

Methods: Differential genes were screened with microarray data from the GEO database (GSE38885, GSE34143 and GSE13996).

Sn-based perovskite solar cells (PSCs) have received extensive attention for photovoltaic applications. Nevertheless, the low crystallization quality of the film due to rapid crystallization results in high trap density of states, which is one of the main reasons for poor performance of Sn-based PSC devices. In this work, we developed a strategy for the formation of FASnI perovskites by introducing the addition of formamidine acetate (FAAc).
