Purpose: The landiolol and organ failure in patients with septic shock (STRESS-L study) included a pre-planned sub-study to assess the effect of landiolol treatment on inflammatory and metabolomic markers.
Methods: Samples collected from 91 patients randomised to STRESS-L were profiled for immune and metabolomic markers. A panel of pro- and anti-inflammatory cytokines were measured through commercially acquired multiplex Luminex assays and statistically analysed by individual and cluster-level analysis (patient).

Bacterial adaptive immunity, driven by CRISPR-Cas systems, protects against foreign nucleic acids from mobile genetic elements (MGEs), like bacteriophages. The type I-E CRISPR-Cas system employs the Cascade (CRISPR-associated complex for antiviral defense) complex for target DNA cleavage, guided by crRNA. Anti-CRISPR (Acr) proteins, such as AcrIE7, counteract this defense by inhibiting Cascade activity.

Reasonable design of hydrogen evolution reaction (HER) electrocatalysts with low Pt loading and excellent catalytic performance is a key challenge in finding efficient and cost attractive catalysts. Pt with its unique d-electrons provides new opportunities for the development of HER catalysts when it forms compounds with highly earth-abundant C. Herein, we focused on designing highly efficient catalysts composed of Pt and C elements using first-principles structure search simulations, identifying four stability PtC monolayers.

Lead azide (LA) is a widely utilized primary explosive, serving as the initiating charge in blasting caps or detonators to start the detonation process of secondary explosives. The toxicity and environmental concerns associated with LA have led to regulatory restrictions and increased scrutiny, prompting the search for lead-free alternatives. LA is highly sensitive toward heat, shock, or friction, which poses safety challenges during manufacturing, handling, and storage.

Context: This study aims to reveal the reaction mechanisms of H and O on the NiO(100) and Ce-doped NiO(100) surfaces using the density functional theory (DFT) combined with the on-site Coulomb correction (DFT + U) method. It was found that H and O react favorably on the reduced surfaces of both materials. However, after the oxygen vacancy is filled, the activation energy for the reaction between H₂ and lattice oxygen increases.
