Background: Previous studies evaluating antiangiogenic agents plus immune checkpoint inhibitors for unresectable hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) have shown encouraging results. This study was conducted to investigate the efficacy and safety of donafenib combined with sintilimab (Don-Sin) for advanced HCC.

Methods: This was a single-center, single-arm phase II trial recruiting patients with BCLC stage C HCC.

Sulfur-containing small molecules, mainly including cysteine (Cys), homocysteine (Hcy), glutathione (GSH), and hydrogen sulfide (HS), are crucial biomarkers, and their levels in different body locations (living cells, tissues, blood, urine, saliva, ) are inconsistent and constantly changing. Therefore, it is highly meaningful and challenging to synchronously and accurately detect them in complex multi-component samples without mutual interference. In this work, we propose a steric hindrance-regulated probe, NBD-2FDCI, with single excitation dual emissions to achieve self-adaptive detection of four analytes.

Article Synopsis
  • The study focuses on the creation of a metal-organic framework (MOF), ZJU-Bao-302a, optimized for the efficient separation of xenon (Xe) and krypton (Kr) gases, which are challenging to separate due to their similar characteristics.
  • ZJU-Bao-302a has ultramicroporous channels specifically designed to favor Xe adsorption, showcasing a significant Xe uptake capacity and impressive selectivity over Kr.
  • The research emphasizes the role of tailored pore structures and polar functional groups within the MOF, which enhance its ability to distinguish and separate Xe from mixtures effectively.

Hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) is characterized by frequent intrahepatic and distant metastases, resulting in a poor prognosis for patients. Epithelial-mesenchymal transition (EMT) plays a pivotal role in this process. However, the expression of NOP2/Sun RNA methyltransferase 5 (NSUN5) in HCC and its role in mediating EMT remain poorly understood.

Lung cancer is emerging as one of the most frequently encountered malignancies around the world that carries high morbidity and mortality. Lung adenocarcinoma (LUAD) has become the most common subtype of lung cancer. MLLT3 or named AF9 was first characterized in acute myeloid leukemia and can downregulate the expression of several critical genes.

Purpose: This study aimed to investigate the real-world use and clinical outcomes of tixagevimab/cilgavimab in China during the Omicron outbreak in late 2022.

Methods: This observational, real-world study included patients who received tixagevimab/cilgavimab from July 9 to December 30, 2022, in Hainan, China. Here, we report the baseline and characteristics and interim analysis results of the clinical outcomes in those receiving at least one dose of tixagevimab/cilgavimab (300 mg) for pre-exposure prophylaxis.

Cefiderocol (FDC) is an effective antibiotic that is used to treat severe infections caused by carbapenem-resistant (CRKP). The mechanisms underlying FDC resistance and molecular epidemiology in China remain unclear. We collected 477 non-duplicate CRKP clinical isolates in central China and characterized their susceptibility to FDC, virulence genes, and sequence typing.

Unlabelled: The aquatic plant , a model genus of the early flowering plant lineage Nymphaeales and family Nymphaeaceae, has been extensively studied. However, the availability of chloroplast genome data for this genus is incomplete, and phylogenetic relationships within the order Nymphaeales remain controversial. In this study, 12 chloroplast genomes of were assembled and analyzed for the first time.

Background: Finding a simple, effective and rapid diagnostic method to improve the diagnosis of gastroesophageal reflux-induced chronic cough (GERC) is indicated. Our objective was to determine the diagnostic value of the pepsin concentration in saliva and induced sputum for GERC.

Methods: 171 patients with chronic cough were enrolled.

Stress granules (SGs) are membrane-less cellular compartments which are dynamically assembled via biomolecular condensation mechanism when eukaryotic cells encounter environmental stresses. SGs are important for gene expression and cell fate regulation. Dysregulation of SG homeostasis has been linked to human neurodegenerative disorders, including amyotrophic lateral sclerosis (ALS) and frontotemporal dementia (FTD).

Introduction: Post-reflux swallow-induced peristaltic wave index (PSPWI) and mean nocturnal baseline impedance (MNBI) are novel parameters reflect esophageal clearance capacity and mucosal integrity. They hold potential in aiding the recognition of gastroesophageal reflux-induced chronic cough (GERC). Our study aims to investigate their diagnostic value in GERC.

Background And Objective: To explore the efficacy of deep diaphragmatic breathing training (DEP) in patients with gastroesophageal reflux-induced chronic cough (GERC).

Methods: A randomized controlled study was conducted involving 60 GERC patients who were divided into the intervention group and the control group (each with 30 patients). Both groups received routine medication treatment for GERC, while the intervention group received DEP training additionally.

Non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC) is one of the malignant tumors with high morbidity and mortality worldwide. Ferroptosis is a new type of programmed cell death caused by abnormal accumulation of iron-dependent reactive oxygen species (ROS) leading to lipid peroxidation. It involves the balance between iron metabolism, lipid metabolism, oxygen free radical reaction and lipid peroxidation.

Presently, the traditional methods employed for detecting livestock and poultry meat predominantly involve sensory evaluation conducted by humans, chemical index detection, and microbial detection. While these methods demonstrate commendable accuracy in detection, their application becomes more challenging when applied to large-scale production by enterprises. Compared with traditional detection methods, machine vision and hyperspectral technology can realize real-time online detection of large throughput because of their advantages of high efficiency, accuracy, and non-contact measurement, so they have been widely concerned by researchers.

Article Synopsis
  • - The study investigates the diagnostic effectiveness of the post-reflux swallow-induced peristaltic wave index (PSPWI) for diagnosing non-acid gastroesophageal reflux-related chronic cough (GERC) due to limitations in current diagnostic criteria.
  • - A retrospective analysis of 223 patients highlighted that while PSPWI alone had a moderate diagnostic value for GERC (AUC 0.760), its effectiveness for non-acid GERC was lower (AUC 0.569), yet improved when combined with other indicators.
  • - The results indicate that specific PSPWI thresholds, when combined with acid exposure time and non-acid reflux ratios, can enhance diagnostic accuracy for non-acid GERC, surpassing traditional symptom indexes

Background: Empiric therapy with multichannel intraluminal impedance-pH monitoring (MII-pH) has been used for the initial treatment of gastroesophageal reflux-induced chronic cough (GERC). However, an algorithm based on the gastroesophageal reflux disease questionnaire (GerdQ) has the potential to achieve a simple, structured, and effective treatment approach for patients with GERC.

Objectives: This study compared the efficacy of anti-reflux therapy based on GerdQ (new structured pathway, NSP) with medical treatment after MII-pH examination (ordinary clinical pathway, OCP) in the management of GERC.

In recent years, the application of microbially induced calcite precipitation (MICP) and enzyme-induced carbonate precipitation (EICP) techniques have been extensively studied to mitigate soil erosion, yielding substantial achievements in this regard. This paper presents a comprehensive review of the recent progress in erosion control by MICP and EICP techniques. To further discuss the effectiveness of erosion mitigation in-depth, the estimation methods and characterization of erosion resistance were initially compiled.

The sorting and processing of food raw materials is an important step in the food production process, and the quality of the sorting operation can directly or indirectly affect the quality of the product. In order to improve production efficiency and reduce damage to food raw materials, some food production enterprises currently use robots for sorting operations of food raw materials. In the process of robot grasping, some food raw materials such as fruits, vegetables and meat have a soft appearance, complex and changeable shape, and are easily damaged by the robot gripper.
