Gas sensing by long-wavelength and long-afterglow pectin/melamine-formaldehyde aerogel via resonance energy transfer.

The exploration of pure organic ultra-long room temperature phosphorescence (RTP) materials has emerged as a research hotspot in recent years. Herein, a simple strategy for fabricating long-afterglow polymer aerogels with three-dimensional ordered structures and environmental monitoring capabilities is proposed. Based on the non-covalent interactions between pectin (PC) and melamine formaldehyde (MF), a composite aerogel (PCMF@phenanthrene) (PCMF@PA) doped with phosphorescent organic small molecules was constructed.

Recent advances in nutraceutical delivery systems constructed by protein-polysaccharide complexes: A systematic review.

Most nutraceuticals have low stability and solubility, making it difficult to achieve ideal bioavailability by directly incorporating into food. Therefore, constructing delivery systems to protect nutraceuticals is an essential strategy. Proteins and polysaccharides have become ideal materials for encapsulating nutraceuticals due to their superior nutritional value, edible safety, and physicochemical properties.

Postoperative delirium after cardiac surgery associated with perioperative gut microbiota dysbiosis: Evidence from human and antibiotic-treated mouse model.

Background: Research links gut microbiota to postoperative delirium (POD) through the gut-brain axis. However, changes in gut microbiota and fecal short-chain fatty acids (SCFAs) in POD patients during the perioperative period and their association with POD are unclear.

Methods: We conducted a nested case-control study among patients undergoing off-pump coronary artery bypass grafting, focusing on POD as the main outcome.

Computed tomography-based nomogram for estimating progression-free survival probability in bladder cancer patients undergoing partial cystectomy.

Purpose: To establish a prognostic model to estimate progression-free survival (PFS) probability in bladder cancer (BCa) patients undergoing partial cystectomy.

Material And Methods: Consecutive patients who underwent partial cystectomy between August 2012 and April 2021 were enrolled. The primary endpoint was PFS during the follow-up.

Anti-Neuroinflammatory Effects of Prenylated Indole Alkaloids from the Antarctic Fungus sp. Strain SF-7367.

Inflammation has always been considered a trigger or consequence of neurodegenerative diseases, and the inhibition of inflammation in the central nervous system can effectively protect nerve cells. Several studies have indicated that various natural products inhibit neuroinflammation. Among these, Antarctic fungal metabolites have pharmacological activities and a developmental value.
