Predictive value of soluble CD59 for poor 28-day neurological prognosis and all-cause mortality in patients after cardiopulmonary resuscitation: a prospective observatory study.

Background: sCD59, as a soluble form of CD59, is observed in multiple types of body fluids and correlated with the cell damage after ischemia/reperfusion injury. This study aims to observe the dynamic changes of serum sCD59 in patients after restoration of spontaneous circulation (ROSC) and explore the association of serum sCD59 with neurological prognosis and all-cause mortality in patients after ROSC.

Methods: A total of 68 patients after ROSC were prospectively recruited and divided into survivors (n = 23) and non-survivors (n = 45) groups on the basis of 28-day survival.

The Value of Extracellular Cold-Inducible RNA-Binding Protein (eCIRP) in Predicting the Severity and Prognosis of Patients After Cardiac Arrest: A Preliminary Observational Study.

Background: Extracellular cold-inducible RNA-binding protein (eCIRP) acting as a novel damage-associated molecular pattern molecule promotes systemic inflammatory responses, including neuroinflammation in cerebral ischemia. We aimed to observe the changes of serum eCIRP and evaluate whether the increased serum eCIRP was associated with the severity and prognosis in patients with restoration of spontaneous circulation (ROSC).

Methods: A total of 73 patients after ROSC were divided into non-survivor (n = 48) and survivor (n = 25) groups based on 28-day survival.

Unusual Flexibility of Microporous Sulfides during Ion Exchange.

Open-framework chalcogenides with ion-exchange capacity are promising materials for removing hazardous heavy-metal ions and for capturing radioactive Cs. However, research on the exchange mechanism is limited, especially for the framework chalcogenides that have multiple bridging anions. Generally, open-framework chalcogenides that have multiple bridging anions at the window or wall of the channels are rigid during the ion-exchange process.
