During the depletion and pressure reduction process in condensate gas reservoirs, the precipitation of condensate oil transforms the single-phase gas flow into a two-phase gas-liquid flow, significantly reducing the permeability. Currently, microscopic studies of the phase behavior of condensate gas in porous media mainly focus on observing and describing the occurrence of condensate oil, lacking quantitative calculations and direct observations of condensate oil throughout the entire depletion cycle. This paper uses a microvisualization method to simulate the depletion process of condensate gas reservoirs.

Individuals with diabetes frequently face serious challenges, including delayed wound healing and increased risk of infection. Notably, the regeneration of hair follicles plays a crucial role in accelerating diabetic skin damage repair, reducing the risk of infection, and enhancing overall skin health. Research has predominantly emphasized the re-epithelialization of diabetic wounds, with a paucity of in-depth studies on hair follicle regeneration.

The long-term trends in maternal and child health (MCH) in China and the national-level factors that may be associated with these changes have been poorly explored. This study aimed to assess trends in MCH indicators nationally and separately in urban and rural areas and the impact of public policies over a 30‒year period. An ecological study was conducted using data on neonatal mortality rate (NMR), infant mortality rate (IMR), under-five mortality rate (U5MR), and maternal mortality ratio (MMR) nationally and separately in urban and rural areas in China from 1991 to 2020.

Purpose: Exosomes are membrane vesicles secreted by various cells and play a crucial role in intercellular communication. They can be excellent delivery vehicles for oligonucleotide drugs, such as microRNAs, due to their high biocompatibility. MicroRNAs have been shown to be more stable when incorporated into exosomes; however, the lack of targeting and immune evasion is still the obstacle to the use of these microRNA-containing nanocarriers in clinical settings.

We report the decomposition of the PtAg(SPhCl) nanocluster into a crown-like PtAg(SR) (SR = 2,4-SPhCl and 4-SPhBr) complex. UV-vis spectra and single crystal X-ray diffraction were used to track the structure-conversion process. Based on the total structure, the differences in ligand exchange rates at different sites and the effects on the stability were mapped out.

China faces challenges in meeting the World Health Organization (WHO)'s target of reducing hepatitis B virus (HBV) infections by 95% using 2015 as the baseline. Using Global Burden of Disease (GBD) 2019 data, joinpoint regression models were used to analyse the temporal trends in the crude incidence rates (CIRs) and age-standardized incidence rates (ASIRs) of acute HBV (AHBV) infections in China from 1990 to 2019. The age-period-cohort model was used to estimate the effects of age, period, and birth cohort on AHBV infection risk, while the Bayesian age-period-cohort (BAPC) model was applied to predict the annual number and ASIRs of AHBV infections in China through 2030.

Current treatment for chronic infectious wounds is limited due to severe drug resistance in certain bacteria. Therefore, the development of new composite hydrogels with nonantibiotic antibacterial and pro-wound repair is important. Here, we present a photothermal antibacterial composite hydrogel fabricated with a coating of Fe cross-linked carboxymethyl chitosan (FeCMCS) following the incorporation of melanin nanoparticles (MNPs) and the Cy peptide.

The nonphotodriven electrochemiluminescence (ECL) imageology necessitates concentrated coreacting additives plus longtime exposures. Seeking biosafe and streamlined ensembles can help lower the bar for quality ECL bioimaging to which call the crystallized endo-coreaction in nanoreticula might provide a potent solution. Herein, an exo-coreactant-free ECL visualizer was fabricated out in one-pot, which densified the dyad triethylamine analogue: 1,4-diazabicyclo-[2.

Pulmonary fibrosis is the result of dysfunctional repair after lung tissue injury, characterized by fibroblast proliferation and massive extracellular matrix aggregation. Once fibrotic lesions develop, effective treatment is difficult, with few drugs currently available. Here, we identified a short cyclic decapeptide RL-RF10 derived from frog skin secretions as a potential novel lead molecule for the amelioration of pulmonary fibrosis.

This ecological study examined the individual and joint impacts of natural-human factors on the spatial patterns of maternal and child health status in China at the provincial scale in 2020. We considered natural factors (forest coverage, average temperature, and total sulfur dioxide and particulate matter emissions) and human factors (economic development, urbanization, healthcare access, and education level). We combined maternal, infant, and under-five mortality rates into a composite maternal and child health index using the entropy method.

Background: Occupational carcinogens, smoking, and obesity are believed to be the main causing agents of kidney cancer. China is undergoing rapid industrialization, and hence the people's lifestyles have witnessed tremendous changes. However, the trend of kidney cancer incidence during the late 20 and early 21 centuries remains unexplored in China.

Background: Active peptides play a vital role in the development of new drugs and the identification and discovery of drug targets. As the first reported native peptide homodimer with pro-regenerative potency, OA-GP11d could potentially be used as a novel molecular probe to help elucidate the molecular mechanism of skin wound repair and provide new drug targets.

Methods: Bioinformatics analysis and luciferase assay were adopted to determine microRNAs (miRNAs) and its target.

Recent studies have shown that enzymes undergo chemotaxis up substrate gradients during catalysis. One important avenue to identify the molecular level origins of this phenomenon is the ligand-protein binding that occurs even in the absence of catalytic turnover. Here, the chemotaxis of zinc porphyrin as a cofactor mimic was observed by imposing a concentration gradient of organic amines in the microfluidic device.

Being synthetic supplements to natural lipids, lipoids now play an increasingly significant role in nanopore sequencing, olfactory sensing, and nanoimpact electrochemistry. Yet, systematic comparisons to sort and screen qualified lipoids are lacking for specific scenario applications. Here, taking the merits of electrochemiluminescence (ECL) in probing biointerfacial events, a new metric was proposed for the evaluation of substrate candidacy in the pool of hyamine bromides (ABs), that are used to cohere with electron-rich porphyrins for deep eutectics-like ECL matrices.

Background: Recent data have shown divergent trends in gastric cancer (GC) incidence between China and Japan; however, the cause for has not been explored.

Methods: We retrieved GC incidence data from 1990 to 2019 from the Global Burden of Disease study, stratified by sex for both countries. We analyzed annual average percentage change (AAPC) via a joinpoint regression model and estimated the effects of age, period, and cohort via the age-period-cohort model.

Recent upgrades in the electrochemiluminescence (ECL) technique showcased its brilliant knack in probing microscopic biointerfacial events, many of which were actually underlain by the ionotropic membrane processes, yet not being ostensive. Here, by modeling an artificial lipoid-supported porin ensemble, we explore and establish the ECL potency in profiling ion-channel activities. A lipophilic hollowed construct dubbed ZnPC was made out of the dynamic covalent chemistry, and its unique geometry was characterized that configured stoichiometric ECL-emissive units in a cubic stance; while the aliphatic vertices of ZnPC helped it safely snorkel and steadily irradiate in a biofilm fusion.

Oceans play a key role in the global mercury (Hg) cycle, but studies on Hg isotopes in seawater are rare due to the extremely low Hg concentration and the lack of a good preconcentration method. Here, we introduce a new coprecipitation method for separating and preconcentrating Hg from seawater for accurate isotope measurement. The coprecipitation was achieved by sequential addition of 0.
