Article Synopsis
- This study explored how the protein CD276 influences prognosis in clear cell renal carcinoma (ccRCC) and developed a nomogram to predict patient outcomes after surgery.
- Researchers analyzed data from The Cancer Genome Atlas and their hospital, confirming a significant negative relationship between CD276 expression levels and progression-free interval (PFI) in ccRCC patients.
- They identified several independent risk factors, particularly tumor diameter and CD276 levels, that affect PFI and validated their findings with statistical models showing that higher CD276 expression and larger tumor size correlate with shorter PFI.
Article Synopsis
- Researchers developed symmetrically branched AuCu alloy nanocrystals with adjustable shapes and sizes, leading to unique optical properties.
- By changing the ratio of gold (Au) to copper (Cu) in the synthesis process, they created Y-shaped tripods and star-shaped pentapods.
- The study also improved photocatalytic performance by attaching CdS nanocrystals to the tips of these structures and adding an AgS layer to enhance charge separation, achieving a high hydrogen evolution rate.
