Global, regional, and national burden of breast, cervical, uterine, and ovarian cancer and their risk factors among women from 1990 to 2021, and projections to 2050: findings from the global burden of disease study 2021.

Background: Female breast cancer, cervical cancer, uterine cancer, and ovarian cancer (FBCUO) pose a significant threat to global public health. Data from the Global Burden of Disease, Injuries, and Risk Factors Study (GBD) 2021 provide critical insights that can guide the understanding and management of these cancers. Our study aims to offer comprehensive global, regional, and national estimates of the FBCUO cancer burden and its attributable risk factors from 1990 to 2021, as well as project future incidence trends up to 2050.

Systematic druggable genome-wide Mendelian randomization identifies therapeutic targets for lung cancer.

Background: Drug repurposing provides a cost-effective approach to address the need for lung cancer prevention and therapeutics. We aimed to identify actionable druggable targets using Mendelian randomization (MR).

Methods: Summary-level data of gene expression quantitative trait loci (eQTLs) were sourced from the eQTLGen resource.

Deep-red Emitting Ir(III) Complexes as Type-I Photosensitizers for Lipid Droplets Targeted Photodynamic Therapy.

Photodynamic therapy (PDT) relying on photosensitizer-induced production of reactive oxygen species (ROS) for killing cancer cells has emerged as a non-invasive anti-cancer strategy. Compared with oxygen-dependent type-II photosensitizers (PSs) for PDT, the development of intrinsic oxygen-independent type-I ones is highly desired but remains a challenge. In this work, two netural Ir(III) complexes that can produce type-I reactive oxygen species, namely MPhBI-Ir-BIQ (Ir-1) and NPhBI-Ir-BIQ (Ir-2), were synthesized.

Thickness measurements of graphene oxide flakes using atomic force microscopy: results of an international interlaboratory comparison.

Flake thickness is one of the defining properties of graphene-related 2D materials (GR2Ms), and therefore requires reliable, accurate, and reproducible measurements with well-understood uncertainties. This is needed regardless of the production method or manufacturer because it is important for all GR2M products to be globally comparable. An international interlaboratory comparison on thickness measurements of graphene oxide flakes using atomic force microscopy has been completed in technical working area 41 of versailles project on advanced materials and standards.

[Calibration Procedure of Laser Confocal Micro-Raman Spectrometer].

As a common spectral characterization technique, Raman spectroscopy is widely used and has a specified calibration procedure. Based on laser confocal micro-Raman spectrometer, in this paper, we briefly introduced the principle, configuration and main components of Raman spectrometer. In addition, the calibration procedures were also presented, with an emphasis on the calibration of spectrometer (spectrograph) and that of excitation laser wavelength.
