Construction of Antibacterial MoS-ACF Phenotype Switcher for Bidirectionally Regulating Inflammation-Proliferation Transition in Wound Healing.

The transition between the inflammatory phase and the proliferative phase is critical for wound healing. However, the development of proper switchers that can regulate this transition is facing great challenges. Macrophages play versatile roles in all wound healing phases because they can readily switch from pro-inflammatory M1 phenotypes to anti-inflammatory M2 phenotypes in response to different microenvironment stimuli.

The validation and cross-cultural adaptation of the PainDETECT questionnaire in osteoarthritis-related pain.

Background: Patients with knee osteoarthritis (KOA) often experience persistent pain and functional impairment after total knee arthroplasty (TKA), which presents challenges for pain management. Accurate preoperative assessment of pain characteristics is crucial for tailoring individualized treatment plans. The PainDETECT Questionnaire has been widely used to identify neuropathic components in chronic pain and has been validated for its reliability and validity across various cultural contexts.

Voltage-dependent anion channel 1 oligomerization regulates PANoptosis in retinal ischemia-reperfusion injury.

Ischemia-reperfusion injury is a common pathophysiological mechanism in retinal degeneration. PANoptosis is a newly defined integral form of regulated cell death that combines the key features of pyroptosis, apoptosis, and necroptosis. Oligomerization of mitochondrial voltage-dependent anion channel 1 is an important pathological event in regulating cell death in retinal ischemia-reperfusion injury.

Novel Electrochemiluminescence Sensor for Dopamine Detection Based on Perylene Diimide/CuO Nanomaterials.

Dopamine (DA) is an important catecholamine neurotransmitter and its abnormal concentration is closely related to diseases such as hypertension, Parkinson's disease and schizophrenia. Due to the advantages of high sensitivity and fast response for electrochemiluminescence (ECL), developing ECL sensors for detecting DA was very critical in clinical diagnosis. ECL resonance energy transfer (ECL-RET) was an effective signaling mechanism.

Development and preliminary validation of the Dietary Self-management Behavior Questionnaire (DSMBQ) for breast cancer patients during chemotherapy: three rounds of survey.

Background: Adverse effects during chemotherapy severely impact the daily diet of breast cancer (BC) patients. Engaging in dietary self-management is crucial for healthy lifestyle and recovery. This study aims to create the Dietary Self-management Behavior Questionnaire (DSMBQ) and preliminarily validate its reliability, validity, and discriminative ability for BC patients undergoing chemotherapy.

A Rare Case of NK Large Granular Lymphocytic Proliferative Disorder.

Background: Chronic NK-cell lymphoproliferative disease (CLPD-NK) is a very rare lymphoproliferative disorder in which patients often have an elevated lymphocyte population without clinical symptoms.

Methods: In this particular case, a middle-aged woman presented with a consistent elevation in her lymphocyte proportion over a span of four consecutive years during physical examinations, without manifesting any other notable clinical symptoms. The underlying cause of this phenomenon was ultimately identified through a comprehensive evaluation that encompassed peripheral blood cell morphology analysis, lymphocyte subset profiling, and peripheral blood immunophenotyping.

Ellagic acid-based non-isocyanate polyurethane water-soluble sizing agents for enhancing the interfacial properties of carbon fiber/epoxy composites.

The preparation of environmentally friendly and efficient waterborne polyurethane sizing agents for carbon fiber (CF) is difficult, especially to avoid the use of isocyanates. Herein, ellagic acid and CO were used to prepare a five-membered cyclic carbonate compound (EARBO). The polymerization between EARBO and diamines enabled the preparation of highly efficient and green aqueous non-isocyanate polyurethane (WNIPU) sizing agents.

Self-Powered Photoelectrochemistry Biosensor for Ascorbic Acid Determination in Beverage Samples Based on Perylene Material.

Ascorbic acid plays an important role in the synthesis and metabolism of the human body. However, it cannot be synthesized by the human body and needs to be supplemented from exogenous food intake. Ascorbic acid is easily degraded during storage and heating, often causing its content in food to change.
