At present, the modification of palladium (Pd) catalysts is an important topic due to its potential to enhance catalytic performance and reduce catalyst costs. In this work, boron (B) and carbon (C) are interstitially doped into the subsurface of Pd to construct PdB and PdC catalysts. The adsorption properties of acetylene and ethylene, the mechanism of acetylene hydrogenation, and ethylene selectivity are studied based on density functional theory (DFT) calculations.

Using the Global Burden of Disease Study 2019 (GBD 2019) database, the Joinpoint regression model was used to analyze the trend of rheumatoid arthritis (RA) incidence and the standardized disability-adjusted life years (DALY) rate in China. The age, period, and cohort effects were discussed based on the age-period-cohort model. The grey prediction model GM (1, 1) was used to fit the trend of incidence and the standardized DALY rate of RA and predict the incidence and standardized DALY rate of RA in China from 2020 to 2034.
