Introduction: Acute liver injury (ALI) is a common complication of sepsis and is associated with adverse clinical outcomes. We aimed to develop a model to predict the risk of ALI in patients with sepsis after hospitalization.
Methods: Medical records of 3196 septic patients treated at the Lishui Central Hospital in Zhejiang Province from January 2015 to May 2023 were selected.
The research and development of aerogel-based microwave absorbing materials with strong electromagnetic (EM) wave response is an emerging research topic in the EM wave absorption field. In order to implement light microwave absorbers with a broad bandwidth, freeze drying assisted with thermally structure-directing techniques was applied to fabricate composite aerogels with orientation design. Thanks to the integration of pore structure regulation and conductive network construction, the as-prepared aerogel absorbers exhibit a tunable EM response covering a broad frequency range.

Although satisfactory results can be achieved to a certain extent, there are still many performance limitations. For overcoming the above limitations, this paper proposes a rapid metamaterials design method based on the generation of random topological patterns.
View Article and Find Full Text PDFA series of manganese(I) carbonyl complexes bearing structurally related - and -chelating ligands have been synthesized and assessed as catalysts for transfer hydrogenation (TH). Notably, the -systems based on -R functionalized 5,6,7,8-tetrahydroquinoline-8-amines, proved the most effective in the manganese-promoted conversion of acetophenone to 1-phenylethanol. In particular, the -isopropyl derivative, Mn1, when conducted in combination with -BuONa, was the standout performer mediating not only the reduction of acetophenone but also a range of carbonyl substrates including (hetero)aromatic-, aliphatic- and cycloalkyl-containing ketones and aldehydes with especially high values of TON (up to 17 200; TOF of 3550 h).
