The reaction of Pd with a molten mixture of A(2)Q(x)()/P(2)Q(5)/Q (A = K, Q = S, x = 3; A = Cs, Q = Se, x = 1) produced the molecular compounds K(4)Pd(PS(4))(2) (I), Cs(4)Pd(PSe(4))(2) (II), and Cs(10)Pd(PSe(4))(4) (III) and the solid-state KPdPS(4) (IV), K(2)PdP(2)S(6) (V), and Cs(2)PdP(2)Se(6) (VI). Compounds I-III are air and water sensitive, while IV-VI are air and water stable. All crystals are red or dark red except those of VI, which are black. All of them exhibit a rodlike shape. Compound I crystallizes in the triclinic space group P&onemacr; (No. 2) with a = 6.380(1) Å, b = 6.897(1) Å, c = 8.999(1) Å, alpha = 87.777(8) degrees, beta = 81.581(8) degrees, gamma = 84.429(9) degrees, and Z = 1. Compound II crystallizes in the monoclinic space group P2(1)/c (No. 14) with a = 7.491(2) Å, b = 13.340(2) Å, c = 10.030(3) Å, beta = 92.21(2) degrees, and Z = 2. Compound III crystallizes in the tetragonal space group P&fourmacr;2c (No. 112) with a = b = 13.949(2) Å, c = 11.527(2) Å, and Z = 4. Compound IV crystallizes in the tetragonal space group P4(2)/mnm (No. 136) with a = b = 8.5337(2) Å, c = 10.5595(5) Å, and Z = 4. Compound V crystallizes in the orthorombic space group Pnma (No. 62) with a = 15.612(2) Å, b = 7.0724(7) Å, c = 10.080(1) Å, and Z = 4. Compound VI crystallizes in the monoclinic space group C2/c (No. 15) with a = 12.9750(4) Å, b = 8.3282(2) Å, c = 13.0568(1) Å, beta = 102.940(2) degrees, and Z = 4. Compounds I-III contain the discrete complexes [Pd(PQ(4))(2)](4)(-) (Q = S, Se). The mixed salt III contains additional noncoordinating [PSe(4)](3)(-) units. The structure of IV consists of Pd(II) in square planar sulfur coordination linked by edge-sharing [PS(4)](3)(-) tetrahedral groups to produce one-dimensional chains. The structures of V andVI feature the [P(2)Q(6)](4)(-) (Q = S, Se) group coordinated to the square planar Pd(2+) atoms, yielding [PdP(2)Q(6)](n)()(2)(n)()(-) chains. Physical characterization was performed with DTA, far-IR spectroscopy, solid-state UV/vis diffuse reflectance spectroscopy, and single-crystal optical transmission.

Background: Complications due to dysphagia are increasingly prevalent among older adults; however, the tediousness and complexity of conventional tongue rehabilitation treatments affect their willingness to rehabilitate. It is unclear whether integrating gameplay into a tongue training app is a feasible approach to rehabilitation.
Objective: Tongue training has been proven helpful for dysphagia treatment.

The human brain connectome is characterized by the duality of highly modular structure and efficient integration, supporting information processing. Newborns with congenital heart disease (CHD), prematurity, or spina bifida aperta (SBA) constitute a population at risk for altered brain development and developmental delay (DD). We hypothesize that, independent of etiology, alterations of connectomic organization reflect neural circuitry impairments in cognitive DD.

The tightly-regulated spatial and temporal distribution of zinc ion concentrations within cellular compartments is controlled by two groups of Zn transporters: the 14-member ZIP/SLC39 family, facilitating Zn influx into the cytoplasm from the extracellular space or intracellular organelles; and the 10-member ZnT/SLC30 family, mobilizing Zn in the opposite direction. Genetic aberrations in most zinc transporters cause human syndromes. Notably, previous studies demonstrated osteopenia and male-specific cardiac death in mice lacking the ZnT5/ zinc transporter, and suggested association of two homozygous frameshift variants with perinatal mortality in humans, due to hydrops fetalis and hypertrophic cardiomyopathy.

Background: Pulmonary space-occupying lesions are typical chronic pulmonary diseases that contribute significantly to healthcare resource use and impose a large disease burden in China. A time-series ecological trend study was conducted to investigate the associations between environmental factors and hospitalizations for pulmonary space-occupying lesions in North of China from 2014 to 2022.
Methods: The DLNM was used to quantify the association of environmental factors with lung cancer admissions.

Background: LINC00312 has shown to play a suppressive role in the development and progression of non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC). However, the expression pattern and diagnostic role of circulating LINC00312 in NSCLC remain to be confused.
Methods: A total of 319 patients diagnosed with NSCLC and 180 healthy volunteers were enrolled from the First Affiliated Hospital of Huzhou University between January, 2022 and December, 2023.
