Background: Obesity is associated with an increased risk of aortic diseases and operative risks. Currently, there are no effective drugs available to prevent the occurrence and progression of aortic aneurysms or dissections. We investigated potential biomarkers and therapeutic targets using a multi-omics approach.

In addition, it is also challenging to selectively convert inert C(sp)-H bonds into value-added chemicals. Herein, robust 3D COFs, USTB-28-M (M=Co, Ni, Cu), have been polymerized from the nucleophilic aromatic substitution reaction of -symmetric 2,3,6,7,14,15-hexahydroxyltriptycene with -symmetric hexadecafluorophthalocyanine (MPcF) under solvothermal conditions.

Background: Lung adenocarcinoma (LUAD) is the most common subtype of non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC) and accounts for about 40% of all lung cancer cases. This research aims to investigate the effects of miR-9-3p on ferroptosis in LUAD cells and to elucidate its regulatory mechanisms. Studies have shown that LUAD is related to ferroptosis, and specific microRNAs (miRNA) are also related to ferroptosis.

Given the limited research on the OP of complex combustion aerosols, the effects of aging processes on their OP remain underexplored. We used online instruments to track the evolution of OP [via dithiothreitol (DTT) assays] during the aging of wood burning and coal combustion emissions by hydroxyl-radical-driven photooxidation and dark ozonolysis.

Objective: The objective is to investigate the situation and risk factors of depression in aged, hospitalized patients with chronic heart failure (CHF).
Methods: A total of 196 aged CHF patients admitted to Xuanwu Hospital from May 2022 to March 2024 were consecutively selected. Information such as demographics, comorbidities, old-age hospitalization assessment results, and admission test results was collected.
