Electrochemical conversion of CO to hydrocarbons is a promising approach to carbon neutrality and energy storage. The formation of reaction intermediates involves crucial steps of proton transfer, making it essential to understand the role of protons in the electrochemical process to control the product selectivity and elucidate the underlying catalytic reaction mechanism of the CO electrochemical reduction (CORR). In this work, we proposed a strategy to regulate product selectivities by tuning local proton transport rates through a surface resin layer over cuprous oxides.

Article Synopsis
  • The study focuses on intrahepatic cholestasis of pregnancy (ICP), a liver disorder common during pregnancy, and explores its genetic causes specifically in East Asian populations compared to Europeans.
  • Researchers conducted a large genome-wide association study on serum bile acids and ICP in over 98,000 Chinese pregnancies, identifying new genetic loci linked to the disorder and its risk.
  • The findings suggest a unique genetic link to ICP in East Asians tied to historical hepatitis B epidemics, which could lead to improved detection and treatment strategies for the condition.

Neuroblastoma (NB) stands as a common and formidable malignant tumor among children, characterized by marked tumor heterogeneity and resistance to conventional treatments. Central to the regulation of protein stability, localization, and function is the process of ubiquitination-a critical protein modification. The therapeutic potential of drugs that target deubiquitination, demonstrated in the treatment of refractory multiple myeloma, warrants investigation in the context of NB.

Article Synopsis
  • * In a study of 196 neonates, researchers used machine learning and causal inference to explore relationships between gut bacteria, bile acids, and NJ, finding that certain gut bacteria were linked to abnormal bile acid metabolism affecting bilirubin levels.
  • * The findings suggest that specific intestinal bile acid metabolites could potentially be used as biomarkers for NJ, with proposed predictive models demonstrating some effectiveness in assessing disease risk.

Article Synopsis
  • The study investigates the impact of early antibiotic exposure on the development of bronchopulmonary dysplasia (BPD) in very preterm infants (VPIs) at low risk for early-onset sepsis (EOS).
  • It uses data from a national cohort in China, focusing on VPIs born between January 2019 and December 2021, and categorizes them based on the duration of antibiotic exposure during their first week of life.
  • The results reveal that among the 6510 VPIs at low risk for EOS, the majority received antibiotics for 5 to 7 days, highlighting a need to explore the relationship between such exposure and the incidence of BPD or mortality as they age.

Background: The occurrence of severe intraventricular hemorrhage (sIVH) was high in the very preterm infants (VPIs) in China. The management strategies significantly contributed to the occurrence of sIVH in VPIs. However, the status of the perinatal strategies associated with sIVH for VPIs was rarely described across the multiple neonatal intensive care units (NICUs) in China.

This review aims to explore the current application of Cranial Ultrasound Screening (CUS) in the diagnosis and treatment of brain diseases in extremely preterm infants. It also discusses the potential role of emerging ultrasound-derived technologies such as Super Microvascular Structure Imaging (SMI), Shear Wave Elastography (SWE), Ultrafast Doppler Ultrasound (UfD), and 3D ventricular volume assessment and automated segmentation techniques in clinical practice. A systematic search of medical databases was conducted using the keywords "(preterm OR extremely preterm OR extremely low birth weight) AND (ultrasound OR ultrasound imaging) AND (neurodevelopment OR brain development OR brain diseases OR brain injury OR neuro*)" to identify relevant literature.

Timely and accurately seizure detection is of great importance for the diagnosis and treatment of epilepsy patients. Existing seizure detection models are often complex and time-consuming, highlighting the urgent need for lightweight seizure detection. Additionally, existing methods often neglect the key characteristic channels and spatial regions of electroencephalography (EEG) signals.

Hexagonal boron nitride possesses a unique layered structure, high specific surface area and similar electronic properties as graphene, which makes it not only a promising catalyst support, but also a highly effective metal-free catalyst in the booming field of green chemistry. Reactions involving small molecules (, oxygen, low carbon alkanes, nitrogen and carbon dioxide) have always been a hot topic in catalytic research, especially associated with the adsorption and activation regime of different forms of small molecules on catalysts. In this review, we have investigated the adsorption of different small molecules and the relevant activation mechanisms of four typical chemical bonds (OO, C-H, NN, CO) on hexagonal boron nitride.

Article Synopsis
  • The study focused on identifying clinical and genetic risk factors for severe unconjugated hyperbilirubinemia in neonates, involving 614 participants from a large database.
  • Key clinical factors linked to increased risk included ABO/Rh incompatibility hemolysis, extravascular hemorrhage, weight loss, and exclusive breastfeeding.
  • The findings emphasize that while genetic factors like the UGT1A1 211G>A mutation play a role, clinical factors are more significant and highlight the need for improved screening and preconception care to prevent instances of this condition.

Background: Extracorporeal membrane oxygenation (ECMO) not only significantly improves survival rates in severely ill neonates but also is associated with long-term neurodevelopmental issues. To systematically review the available literature on the neurodevelopmental outcomes of neonates and infants who have undergone ECMO treatment, with a focus on motor deficits, cognitive impairments, sensory impairments, and developmental delays. This review aims to understand the incidence, prevalence, and risk factors for these problems and to explore current nursing care and management strategies.

Renewable electricity driven electrocatalytic CO reduction reaction (CO RR) is a promising solution to carbon neutralization, which mainly generate simple carbon products. It is of great importance to produce more valuable C-N chemicals from CO and nitrogen species. However, it is challenging to co-reduce CO and NO /NO to generate aldoxime an important intermediate in the electrocatalytic C-N coupling process.

The construction of an all-in-one catalyst, in which the photosensitizer and the transition metal site are close to each other, is important for improving the efficiency of metallaphotoredox catalysis. However, the development of convenient synthetic strategies for the precise construction of an all-in-one catalyst remains a challenging task due to the requirement of precise installation of the catalytic sites. Herein, we have successfully established a facile bottom-up strategy for the direct synthesis of Ni(II)-incorporated covalent organic framework (COF), named LZU-713@Ni, as a versatile all-in-one metallaphotoredox catalyst.

Automatic seizure detection from electroencephalography (EEG) based on deep learning has been significantly improved. However, existing works have not adequately excavate the spatial-temporal information between EEG channels. Besides, most works mainly focus on patient-specific scenarios while cross-patient seizure detection is more challenging and meaningful.
