Purpose: We present our own antiglaucoma procedure using glassy carbon fibre.

Material And Methods: Our procedure belongs to filtration type of antyglaucoma operations, so we call it carbofiltratio. 32 carbofiltratio procedures were performed. All our patients had neovascular glaucoma. Each patient complained of intensive pain, because of increasing intraocular pressure.

Results: The follow-up time was 3 month to 2 years. All patients were periodically tested for intraocular pressure, pain and condition of surgery spot. In most of our cases we achieved to reduce pain and intraocular pressure without hypotensive drugs. 34.4% of our procedure was insufficient. We had to make enucleation or reoperate. All these procedures were performed before 60 days after first operation.

Objective: To develop and validate a nomogram model for predicting central venous catheter-related infections (CRI) in patients with maintenance hemodialysis (MHD).

Methods: MHD patients with central venous catheters (CVCs) visiting the outpatient hemodialysis (HD) center of Xuzhou Medical University Affiliated Hospital from January 2020 to December 2023 were retrospectively selected through a HD monitoring system. Patient data were collected, and the patients were divided into training and validation sets in a 7:3 ratio.

Hierarchical Selenium-Doped Nickel-Cobalt Hybrids on Carbon Paper for the Overall Water-Splitting Electrocatalytic System.

ACS Appl Mater Interfaces

January 2025

Department of Battery and Chemical Engineering, Hanyang University, Ansan, Gyeonggi-do 15588, Republic of Korea.

Designing and constructing hierarchically structured materials with heterogeneous compositions is the key to developing an effective catalyst for overall water-splitting applications. Herein, we report the fabrication of hollow-structured selenium-doped nickel-cobalt hybrids on carbon paper as a self-supported electrode (denoted as Se-Ni|Co/CP, where Ni|Co hybrids consist of nickel-cobalt alloy-incorporated nickel-cobalt oxide). The procedure involves direct growth of zeolitic imidazolate framework-67 (ZIF-67) on bimetal-based nickel-cobalt hydroxide (NiCoOH) electrodeposited on CP, followed by selenous etching and pyrolysis to obtain the final Se-Ni|Co/CP electrocatalytic system.

White Matter Fiber Bundle Alterations Correlate with Gait and Cognitive Impairments in Parkinson's Disease based on HARDI Data.

Curr Med Imaging

January 2025

Department of Radiology, Beijing Friendship Hospital, Capital Medical University, No. 95, Yong An Road, Xicheng District, Beijing 100050, China.

Background: The neuroanatomical basis of white matter fiber tracts in gait impairments in individuals suffering from Parkinson's Disease (PD) is unclear.

Methods: Twenty-four individuals living with PD and 29 Healthy Controls (HCs) were included. For each participant, two-shell High Angular Resolution Diffusion Imaging (HARDI) and high-resolution 3D structural images were acquired using the 3T MRI.
