Constructing Bridge Hydroxyl Groups on the Ru/MO/HZSM-5 (M = W, Mo) Catalysts to Promote the Hydrolysis Oxidation of Multicomponent VOCs.

Chlorinated and oxygenated volatile organic compounds (CVOCs and OVOCs) pose a significant threat to human health. Catalytic oxidation effectively removes these pollutants, but catalyst deactivation is a challenge. Our study focused on the hydrolysis oxidation of chlorobenzene (CB) and ethyl acetate (EA) over Ru/MO/HZSM-5 (M = W, Mo).

lncRNA-NEF regulates hepatic stellate cells proliferation, cell cycle, apoptosis and ECM synthesis through the ERK1/2/c-Fos axis.

In this study, we investigated the role of lncRNA-NEF in modulating hepatic stellate cell (HSC) activation, a key process in liver fibrosis. Using the GSE78160 dataset, we identified lncRNA-NEF as downregulated in liver cirrhosis patients. Gene Ontology and KEGG analyses implicated it in transcriptional regulation and cell cycle control.

Density-wave-like gap evolution in LaNiO under high pressure revealed by ultrafast optical spectroscopy.

Density wave (DW) order is believed to be correlated with superconductivity in the recently discovered high-temperature superconductor LaNiO. However, experimental investigations of its evolution under high pressure are still lacking. Here, we explore the quasiparticle dynamics in bilayer nickelate LaNiO single crystals using ultrafast optical pump-probe spectroscopy under high pressures up to 34.

Record High Uranium Photoassisted Capture Performance from Fluorine-Containing Wastewater by Ag/WO with Surface Defect and Heterostructure.

The uranium recovery from high concentration fluorine-containing uranium wastewater is a desired research target in the field of environmental radiochemistry but is very challenging due to the formation of stable uranium fluoride complexes that are quite difficult to extract. By employing surface defect engineering and interfacial heterostructure design, we present here the rational design of an efficient photocatalyst (Ag/WO) for U(VI) uptake from fluorine-containing uranium wastewater without any sacrificial agents. The defect-rich surface of Ag/WO facilitates confined adsorption of uranium, while the introduction of Ag nanoparticles enables both efficient electron-hole separation and a plasmon effect upon light irradiation.

Prolonged elevated heart rate is association with adverse outcome in severe pulmonary embolism: A retrospective study.

Background: Pulmonary embolism (PE) is a critical condition characterized by the obstruction of pulmonary arteries by thrombi, which significantly contributes to morbidity and mortality globally. Although prolonged elevated heart rate (peHR) is recognized as a risk factor for adverse outcomes in critically ill patients, its specific impact on severe PE has remained unexplored.

Methods: This retrospective cohort study analyzed data from the Medical Information Mart for Intensive Care (MIMIC)-IV database.

Efficacy and safety of fentanyl inhalant for the treatment of breakthrough cancer pain: a multicenter, randomized, double-blind, placebo-controlled trial.

Background: Breakthrough cancer pain (BTcP) has a negative impact on patients' quality of life, general activities, and is related to worse clinical outcomes. Fentanyl inhalant is a hand-held combination drug-device delivery system providing rapid, multi-dose (25μg/dose) administration of fentanyl via inhalation of a thermally generated aerosol. This multicenter, randomized, placebo-controlled, multiple-crossover, double-blind study evaluated the efficacy, safety, and tolerability of fentanyl inhalant in treating BTcP in opioid-tolerant patients.

Hydrate Technologies for CO Capture and Sequestration: Status and Perspectives.

CO capture and sequestration based on hydrate technology are considered supplementary approaches for reducing carbon emissions and mitigating the greenhouse effect. Direct CO hydrate formation and CH gas substitution in natural gas hydrates are two of the main methods used for the sequestration of CO in hydrates. In this Review, we introduce the crystal structures of CO hydrates and CO-mixed gas hydrates and summarize the interactions between the CO molecules and clathrate hydrate/HO frames.

Pressure-Sensitive Multiple Superconducting Phases and Their Structural Origin in Van der Waals HfS_{2} Up to 160 GPa.

Establishment and application of quadruple fluorescence quantitative RT-PCR method for the identification of waterfowl astrovirus.

Avian astrovirus can infect a variety of poultry species and cause viral diarrhea, with a wide epidemic range strong pathogenicity and a high incidence. Among them, Duck astrovirus 3(DAstV-3), Duck astrovirus 4(DAstV-4), Goose astrovirus 1(GoAstV-1) and Goose astrovirus 2(GoAstV-2) are four types of astroviruses newly discovered in waterfowl in recent years. In order to realize the rapid detection of these four kinds of waterfowl stellate viruses, specific primers and probes were engineered to target a highly conserved region of ORF1b gene of DAstV-3, GoAstV-1 and GoAstV-2 and the ORF2 gene of DAstV-4, and a quadruple fluorescence quantitative RT-PCR method was developed.

Wide-Band Unambiguous Quantum Sensing via Geodesic Evolution.

We present a quantum sensing technique that utilizes a sequence of π pulses to cyclically drive the qubit dynamics along a geodesic path of adiabatic evolution. This approach effectively suppresses the effects of both decoherence noise and control errors while simultaneously removing unwanted resonance terms, such as higher harmonics and spurious responses commonly encountered in dynamical decoupling control. As a result, our technique offers robust, wide-band, unambiguous, and high-resolution quantum sensing capabilities for signal detection and individual addressing of quantum systems, including spins.
