A detailed study of the stepwise substitution of the chloride ligands in the [Re3(mu-Cl)3Cl9](3-) (1) anion by water molecules is presented using theoretical methods. Ligand lability as well as the structure and relative stability of the various mono-[Re3(mu-Cl)3Cl8(H2O)](2-) (2a,b) and dihydro-[Re3(mu-Cl)3Cl7(H2O)2](-) (3a-f) conformers is examined. Clear preferences for the positions of the incoming water ligands are proposed based on calculated energy and vibrational data, which fully agree with the experimental results.

To develop and evaluate a predictive model for intensive care unit (ICU) admission among patients with acute sedative-hypnotic overdose. We conducted a retrospective analysis of patients admitted to the emergency department of West China Hospital, Sichuan University, between October 11, 2009, and December 31, 2023. Patients were divided into ICU and non-ICU groups based on admission criteria including the need for blood purification therapy, organ support therapy (ventilatory support, vasoactive drugs, renal replacement therapy, artificial liver), or post-cardiopulmonary resuscitation.

To investigate the effects of long non-coding RNA KLHL7-AS1 (LncRNA KLHL7-AS1) on the proliferation and apoptosis of nucleus pulposus cells under oxidative stress and its mechanisms. Human nucleus pulposus cells (HUM-iCell-s012) were divided into 4 groups, and unoxidized nucleus pulposus cells were transfected with an empty pcDNA vector (pcDNA-control) to serve as the blank control group. Based on previous studies on oxidative stress-induced nucleus pulposus cell senescence and preliminary experiments, oxidative stress was induced by treating nucleus pulposus cells with 400 μmol/L HO.

To date, it has been regarded as one of the most challenging issues to construct novel adsorbents possessing excellent adsorption performance toward heavy metals including copper ions (Cu(II)). Especially, it is controversy about the structural characteristics of chitosan-based adsorbents adsorbed with Cu(II) ions, which could function as new adsorbents. In this study, we adopt a freeze-drying process to synthesize honeycomb-like chitosan hydrogel beads crosslinked with citric acid (cCHBs), further characterize the microstructures of cCHBs and eventually reveal the thermodynamics equations for the removal of target Cu(II).

Layered double hydroxides (LDHs) can effectively stabilize Se oxyanions, yet the thermal stability of Se oxyanions incorporated into LDHs remains unclear. In this study, calcination products of three types of LDHs loaded with SeO2- 3 or SeO2-4 were analyzed using X-ray diffraction (XRD), Fourier-transform infrared spectroscopy (FTIR), X-ray absorption fine structure spectroscopy (XAFS) and leaching tests. It has been found that SeO2-4 can be reduced to SeO2- 3 in the Fe-containing LDHs after calcination at temperatures above 450 °C.

ConspectusLithium-ion batteries (LIBs) based on graphite anodes are a widely used state-of-the-art battery technology, but their energy density is approaching theoretical limits, prompting interest in lithium-metal batteries (LMBs) that can achieve higher energy density. In addition, the limited availability of lithium reserves raises supply concerns; therefore, research on postlithium metal batteries is underway. A major issue with these metal anodes, including lithium, is dendritic formation and insufficient reversibility, which leads to safety risks due to short circuits and the use of flammable electrolytes.
