Enhanced Efficiency and Stability of Planar Perovskite Solar Cells Using a Dual Electron Transport Layer of Gold Nanoparticles Embedded in Anatase TiO Films.

Incorporating plasmonic nanostructures is a promising strategy to enhance both the optical and electrical characteristics of photovoltaic devices via more efficient harvesting of incident light. Herein, we report a facile fabrication scheme at low temperature for producing gold nanoparticles embedded in anatase TiO films, which can simultaneously improve the efficiency and stability of n-i-p planar heterojunction perovskite solar cells (PSCs). The PSCs based on rigid and flexible substrates with 0.

[Establishment of a nomogram model to predict systemic inflammatory response syndrome after transrectal ultrasound-guided prostate biopsy].

Objective: To access the risk factors of systemic inflammatory response syndrome (SIRS) after transrectal ultrasound-guided biopsy of the prostate (TRUS-Bp) and establish a model and a nomogram for the prediction of SIRS after TRUS-Bp.

Methods: We retrospectively analyzed the clinical data on 752 cases of TRUS-Bp in our hospital from January 2010 to January 2017 and included 570 of the cases in this study. We investigated the independent risk factors for SIRS after TRUS-Bp by univariate and logistic regression analyses, constructed a prediction model and nomogram with the R-Statistics software, evaluated the discrimination of the model with the ROC curve, and measured the conformity by SPSS25.

Enhancing Performance and Uniformity of Perovskite Solar Cells via a Solution-Processed C Interlayer for Interface Engineering.

Although some kinds of semiconductor metal oxides (SMOs) have been applied as electron selective layers (ESLs) for planar perovskite solar cells (PSCs), electron transfer is still limited by low electron mobility and defect film formation of SMO ESLs fabricated via low-temperature solution process. Herein, the C interlayer between TiO and (HC(NH)PbI)(CHNHPbCl) is prepared by spin-coating and low-temperature annealing for planar n-i-p PSCs. The resultant TiO/C ESL shows good surface morphology, efficient electron extraction, and facilitation of high-quality perovskite film formation, which can be attributed to the suitable nanosize and the superior electronic property of C molecules.

Anesthetic constituents of Zanthoxylum bungeanum Maxim.: A pharmacokinetic study.

A sensitive and selective ultra high performance liquid chromatography with tandem mass spectrometry method was established and validated for the simultaneous determination of hydroxy-α-sanshool, hydroxy-β-sanshool, and hydroxy-γ-sanshool in rat plasma after the subcutaneous and intravenous administration of an extract of the pericarp of Zanthoxylum bungeanum Maxim. Piperine was used as the internal standard. The analytes were extracted from rat plasma by liquid-liquid extraction with ethyl acetate and separated on a Thermo Hypersil GOLD C18 column (2.

[Dynamics of expression of Toll-like receptor 4 early after renal transplantation: a clinical research].

Objective: To investigate the dynamics of expression of Toll-like receptor 4 (TLR4), an innate immune molecule, in patients early after renal transplantation and the role thereof in the renal transplantation immunity.

Methods: Eighteen patients early after renal transplantation were divided into rejection group (n = 3) and non-rejection group (n = 15) according to the rejection episode record within two weeks. 1, 4, and 7 days after transplantation peripheral blood samples were collected.

[Clinical observation on long-term surviving patients after combined abdominal organ transplantation].

Objective: To summarize the treatment experience of long-term surviving patients after combined abdominal organ transplantation.

Methods: From October 2001 to January 2005, 19 patients received combined abdominal organ transplantation in Nanfang Hospital, including 6 with simultaneous kidney-pancreas transplantation (SKPT), 12 with combined liver-kidney transplantation (CLKT), and 1 with simultaneous liver-pancreas transplantation (SLPT). The periods of follow up were from 6 months to 3 years and 8 months.

[Three- and two-color flow cytometry for immunologic surveillance of toll-like receptor 4 after renal transplantation].

Objective: To compare the characteristics of three- and two-color flow cytometry for immunologic surveillance of toll-like receptor 4 (TLR-4) after renal transplantation.

Method: The expressions of CD14, TLR4 and CD80 in peripheral blood monocytes were measured in 10 patients after renal transplantation by three- and two-color fluorescent staining flow cytometry, respectively. The percentages of TLR4 and CD80 in CD14-positive monocytes were calculated, and the characteristics of two methods of flow cytometry were compared.
