Metal-organic frameworks (MOFs) have become a hot spot in the area of functional materials and have undergone rapid development in a wide range of fields in the 21st century. However, the scalable application of MOFs is still constrained by high production cost at the front end. Additionally, systematic discussion of the reuse of spent MOFs is lacking.

Article Synopsis
  • This study investigates how variations in the CYP2D6 gene affect the response to angiotensin receptor blocker (ARB) treatment in hypertensive patients of the Chinese Bai ethnicity.
  • Seventy-two patients were genotyped for single nucleotide polymorphisms in CYP2D6, revealing nine significant variations that correlated with treatment effectiveness, particularly a mutation at rs111564371, which was linked to better blood pressure control.
  • Findings indicate that certain CYP2D6 polymorphisms can enhance ARB treatment outcomes by about 20%, contributing to a more personalized approach to healthcare in managing hypertension.

Background: Acute basilar artery occlusion (BAO) is the most potentially disastrous outcome and has a high risk of recurrence stroke in posterior circulation infarction (PCI). However, the rate of futile recanalization remains high despite successful recanalization. The objective of this study was to investigate 90 days functional outcomes among patients with BAO who underwent endovascular thrombectomy (EVT) and to identify the risk factors associated with futile recanalization.

Neuropeptides and peptide hormones play central roles in the regulation of various types of insect physiology and behavior. Artificial light at night, a form of environmental stress, has recently been regarded as a source of light stress on nocturnal insects. Because related genomic information is not available, molecular biological studies on the response of neuropeptides in nocturnal insects to light stress are limited.
