Colour triad in rare-earth doped glass: a step toward volumetric displays.

Full-colour tuning in rare-earth doped monolithic tellurite glass is realised via excitation pulse modulation, enabling a novel platform for laser-based transparent displays. This advancement demonstrates the potential of upconversion emission for future display technologies.

Excitation-Dependent Anti-Thermal Quenching in Zero-Dimensional Manganese Bromides for Photoluminescence and X-Ray Scintillation.

One of the most significant challenges of luminescent materials is the thermal quenching (TQ) at high temperature. Understanding the correlation between crystal structure variation and photoluminescence (PL) quenching is significant to achieve anti-thermal quenching (anti-TQ) phosphors. Herein, we unveil a universal principle governing switchable TQ and anti-TQ behaviors in zero-dimensional (0D) organic-inorganic hybrid manganese bromides.

Adavosertib-encapsulated metal-organic frameworks for p53-mutated gallbladder cancer treatment via synthetic lethality.

Adavosertib (ADA) is a WEE1 inhibitor that exhibits a synthetic lethal effect on p53-mutated gallbladder cancer (GBC). However, drug resistance due to DNA damage response compensation pathways and high toxicity limits further applications. Herein, estrone-targeted ADA-encapsulated metal-organic frameworks (ADA@MOF-EPL) for GBC synthetic lethal treatment by inducing conditional factors are developed.

The effect of carbon nanoparticles vs. immune colloidal gold technique test strips on parathyroid protection in total thyroidectomy: A randomized clinical trial study.

Background: The long-term effect of intraoperative usage of carbon nanoparticles (CN) and parathyroid hormone (PTH) test strip using immune colloidal gold technique (ICGT) is unclear. This study aims to compare the effect of intraoperative usage of CN and ICGT test strips on PG function.

Methods: This randomized clinical study involved adult patients who underwent total thyroidectomy.

Organic Excitonic State Management by Surface Metallic Coupling of Inorganic Lanthanide Nanocrystals.

The ability to harness charges and spins for control of organic excitonic states is critical in developing high-performance organic luminophores and optoelectronic devices. Here we report a facile strategy to efficiently manipulate the electronic energy states of various organic phosphors by coupling them with inorganic lanthanide nanocrystals. We show that the metallic atoms exposed on the nanocrystal surface can introduce strong coupling effects to 9-(4-ethoxy-6-phenyl-1,3,5-triazin-2-yl)-9H-carbazole (OCzT) and some organic chromophores with carbazole functional groups when the organics are approaching the nanocrystals.

Tissue-like cultured fish fillets through a synthetic food pipeline.

Tissue-like cultured meats of some livestock have successfully been established by different approaches. However, the production of a structure similar to fish fillets is still challenging. Here, we develop tissue-like cultured fish fillets by assembly of large yellow croaker muscle fibers and adipocytes with 3D-printed gel.

Elemental-Migration-Assisted Full-Color-Tunable Upconversion Nanoparticles for Video-Rate Three-Dimensional Volumetric Displays.

Herein, we demonstrate video-rate color three-dimensional (3D) volumetric displays using elemental-migration-assisted full-color-tunable upconversion nanoparticles (UCNPs). In the heavily doped NaErF:Tm-based core@multishell UCNPs, erbium migration was observed. By tailoring this migration through adjustment of the intermediate shell thickness between the core and the sensitizer-doped second shell, red-green orthogonal upconversion luminescence (UCL) was achieved.

Relative efficacy of prophylactic strategies for postthyroidectomy hypocalcemia: a systematic review and network meta-analysis.

Background: Routine prophylaxis for at-risk patients may reduce the occurrence of postoperative hypocalcemia but is not widely adopted due to a lack of evidence on the efficacy of available prophylactic strategies. In this study, we compared the relative efficacy of prophylactic strategies for postthyroidectomy hypocalcemia with a systematic review and network meta-analysis.

Methods: PubMed, Embase, and Cochrane Library were searched, covering the period from 1980 to May 2022, for randomized controlled trials (RCTs) comparing calcium, vitamin D 3 , activated vitamin D 3 , teriparatide, steroids, and magnesium with placebo or each other in patients receiving total or completion thyroidectomy.

Diagnosis and Management of Occult Cervical Tuberculous Lymphadenopathy.

: Some cervical tuberculous lymphadenopathy (CTL) presents no evidence of tuberculosis (TB), even after thorough examination of a fine-needle aspiration (FNA) specimen. After the examination of excisional specimens, when the polymerase chain reaction (PCR) analysis identifies the nucleic acid of (Mtb) or the culture results are positive, then the diagnosis of CTL is established. We refer to this condition as occult CTL (OCTL).

Design and application of submental island flap to reconstruct non-circumferential defect after hypopharyngeal carcinoma resection: a prospective study of 27 cases.

Background: This study investigated the effects of reconstruction of hypopharyngeal non-circumferential defects with a submental island flap after ablation of hypopharyngeal carcinoma.

Objectives: The purpose of our study was to identify advantages and limitations of the submental flap for reconstruction of non-circumferential hypopharyngeal defects.

Methods: A total of 27 patients who had stage II-IV hypopharyngeal cancer and underwent pharyngeal reconstruction with a submental flap by the senior author in both Department of Otolaryngology Head Neck Surgery, Chinese PLA General Hospital and Department of Otolaryngology Head Neck Surgery, Beijing Friendship Hospital, Capital Medical University.

Giant Stability Enhancement of CsPbX Nanocrystal Films by Plasma-Induced Ligand Polymerization.

All-inorganic CsPbX (X = Cl, Br, and I) nanocrystals (NCs) are emerging as attractive semiconductor materials because of their outstanding optical properties. The low resistance of CsPbX NCs to light, heat, oxygen, and water has been recognized as a major obstacle to their practical applications. Here, we demonstrate that the stability of CsPbX NC films can be dramatically enhanced by Ar plasma treatment.

A novel missense mutation of the ATP2A2 gene in a Chinese family with Darier's disease.

Darier's disease (DD) is an autosomal dominant skin disorder that is characterized by multiple keratotic papules, focal loss of adhesion and abnormal keratinization. Mutations in the ATP2A2 gene encoding sarco/endoplasmic reticulum calcium pumping ATPase type 2 have been identified as the molecular basis of DD. We report here a three-generation family with DD, and examined ATP2A2 gene mutations in this family by direct sequencing.
