Theoretical and kinetic study of the H-atom abstraction reactions by Ḣ atom from alkyl cyclohexanes.

Reaction kinetics of hydrogen atom abstraction from six alkyl cyclohexanes, methyl cyclohexane (MCH), ethyl cyclohexane (ECH), -propyl cyclohexane (PCH), iso-propyl cyclohexane (iPCH), -butyl cyclohexane (BCH) and iso-butyl cyclohexane (iBCH), by the Ḣ atom are systematically studied in this work. The M06-2X method combined with the 6-311++G(d,p) basis set is used to perform geometry optimization, frequency analysis and zero-point energy calculations for all species. The intrinsic reaction coordinate (IRC) calculations are performed to confirm the transition states connecting the reactants and products correctly.

Transcatheter aortic valve replacement for aortic regurgitation: a systematic review and meta-analysis.

The efficacy and safety of new-generation devices (NGDs) for severe aortic regurgitation (AR) have mostly been based on single-arm studies with limited sample sizes. Our goal was to summarize the current evidence on NGDs and compare the safety and efficacy of 'off-label' and 'on-label' devices in NGDs. We searched MEDLINE, Embase, Cochrane Library, and Scopus for articles on transcatheter aortic valve replacement in patients with AR.

Synergistic effects of the bimetallic Ni-Fe systems and their application in the reductive amination of polyether polyols.

We report the synthesis of Ni-Fe/γ-AlO catalysts which were applied to the reductive amination of polypropylene glycol (PPG) for the preparation of polyether amine (PEA). The catalysts were characterized by N-sorption, X-ray diffraction, H-temperature programmed reduction, energy-dispersive X-ray spectroscopy, and X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy to reveal the synergistic effect of the bimetallic Ni-Fe-loaded catalysts. It was found that in the reductive amination of PPG to PEA, the conversion and product selectivity of the reaction were closely related to the types of active centers of the catalyst.

Differential expression profiles and functional analysis of long non-coding RNAs in calcific aortic valve disease.

Aim: To evaluate the expression profile of long non-coding RNAs (lncRNAs) in calcific aortic valve disease (CAVD) and explore their potential mechanism of action.

Methods: The gene expression profiles (GSE153555, GSE148219, GSE199718) were downloaded from the Gene Expression Omnibus (GEO) database and FastQC was run for quality control checks. After filtering and classifying candidate lncRNAs by differentially expressed genes (DEGs) and weighted co-expression networks (WGCNA) in GSE153555, we predicted the potential cis- or trans-regulatory target genes of differentially expressed lncRNAs (DELs) by using FEELnc and established the competitive endogenous RNA (ceRNA) network by miRanda, more over functional enrichment was analyzed using the ClusterProfiler package in R Bioconductor.

Outcomes after endovascular thrombectomy for acute ischemic stroke patients with active cancer: A systematic review and meta-analysis.

Background: Active cancer (AC) is a known risk factor for stroke and a common comorbidity among patients being considered for treatment with endovascular thrombectomy (EVT). This systematic review and meta-analysis aimed to evaluate the current evidence for the feasibility, efficacy, and safety of EVT for patients with AC.

Methods: MEDLINE, EMBASE, and the Cochrane Library were searched for relevant randomized controlled trials (RCTs) and observational studies which met the inclusion criteria for EVT in patients with AC.

Postoperative neutrophil-lymphocyte ratio predicts unfavorable outcome of acute ischemic stroke patients who achieve complete reperfusion after thrombectomy.

Purpose: Only approximately half of anterior circulation large vessel occlusion (LVO) patients receiving endovascular treatment (EVT) have a favorable outcome. The aim of this study was to explore the association of dynamic inflammatory markers (i.e.

Clinical evidence comparing bridging and direct endovascular thrombectomy: progress and controversies.

Clinical evidence comparing bridging endovascular thrombectomy (bEVT) with intravenous thrombolysis and direct endovascular thrombectomy (dEVT) without thrombolysis for patients with acute ischemic stroke (AIS) presented directly to an EVT-capable center is overwhelming but inconsistent. This study aimed to analyze the progress and controversies in clinical evidence based on current meta-analyses. Three databases, including MEDLINE, EMBASE, and the Cochrane Library, were searched.

[Development of bio-jet fuel production technology: a review].

Due to the large amount of greenhouse gas emissions and the high dependence on fossil fuels, the sustainable development of aviation industry has attracted worldwide attention. Bio-jet fuel is considered to be a promising alternative to traditional aviation fuel. This article summarizes the representative technological route, development status, opportunities and challenges faced by the development of bio-jet fuel industry.

Clinical Significance and Influencing Factors of Microvascular Tissue Reperfusion After Macrovascular Recanalization.

The relevance of impaired microvascular tissue reperfusion despite successful macrovascular angiographic reperfusion (no-reflow) in acute ischemic stroke (AIS) remains controversial. In this study, we aimed to investigate the impact of tissue optimal reperfusion (TOR) and its influencing factors. From December 1, 2020 to December 1, 2021, AIS patients with successful recanalization (modified Thrombolysis in Cerebral Infarction score [mTICI] ≥ 2b) after mechanical thrombectomy (MT) were retrospectively reviewed.

Thrombosis origin identification of cardioembolism and large artery atherosclerosis by distinct metabolites.

Background: The diagnosis of cerebral thrombosis origin is challenging and remains unclear. This study aims to identify thrombosis due to cardioembolism (CE) and large artery atherosclerosis (LAA) from a new perspective of distinct metabolites.

Methods: Distinct metabolites between 26 CE and 22 LAA origin thrombi, which were extracted after successful mechanical thrombectomy in patients with acute ischemic stroke in the anterior circulation, were analyzed with a ultra performance liquid chromatography coupled with quadrupole time-of-flight mass spectrometry (UPLC-QTOF-MS) system.

Highly Efficient Hydroisomerization of -Tetrahydrodicyclopentadiene to -Tetrahydrodicyclopentadiene over Pt/HY.

The fast deactivation caused by serious formation of coke is a major challenge in catalytic isomerization of -tetrahydrodicyclopentadiene (-THDCPD) into -tetrahydrodicyclopentadiene (-THDCPD) over the HY zeolite. In order to suppress the coke formation for the isomerization process, the conventional HY zeolite was modified with Pt at 0.3 wt %.
