Background: Endovascular recanalization with venous stenting is the preferred treatment for iliofemoral venous obstruction. We reviewed our institutional experience and mid-term outcomes with endovascular therapy for iliofemoral venous obstruction using the Venovo Self-expanding Venous Stent (BARD Peripheral Vascular, Inc., Tempe, AZ, USA).

To experimentally investigate the impact of macrocyclic structures on the nonradiative decay rate constants () of thermally activated delayed fluorescence (TADF), a macrocyclic molecule L-ring and its analogue NL-ring were designed and synthesized. The photophysical measurements reveal their TADF characteristics, and the of the L-ring (4.19 × 10 s) is slower than that of the NL-ring (1.

The STK11 gene mutation is a common genetic alteration in non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC) and is significantly associated with poor responses to current immunotherapy regimens. Despite its prevalence, there is currently no established standard for front-line treatment in this subtype of NSCLC, underscoring the increasing need for personalized therapeutic strategies. In this report, we present a case of a patient with STK11-mutant NSCLC who was treated with first-line cadonilimab (10mg/kg) in combination with pemetrexed (500mg/m^2) plus carboplatin (AUC=5), resulting in a notable extension of progression-free survival (PFS).

Gouty arthritis is characterized by an acute inflammatory response triggered by monosodium urate (MSU) crystals deposited in the joints and periarticular tissues. Current treatments bring little effects owing to serious side effects, necessitating the exploration of new and safer therapeutic options. Macrophages play a critical role in the initiation, progression, and resolution of acute gout, with the cellular profiles closely linked to their activation and polarization.

The use of sunlight to convert CO into multi-carbon fuels, particularly propylene, is considered a sustainable carbon cycle pathway, but propylene requires a multi-electron-coupled proton reaction process that has not been reported. Herein, two covalent organic frameworks (DA-COF and DP-COF) are prepared by varying the bridging positions of anthraquinone conjugated units. The experimental results show that the neighbouring bridge in DA-COF forms a unique cleavage structure like an enzyme catalyst, which can provide an efficient microenvironment for the reduction reaction to trap protons.
