In an attempt to find safe and effective methods of treating giant intracranial aneurysms, we have developed a one-step construction of giant experimental aneurysms in dogs with a yield of 100% patency of the parent artery and the experimental aneurysm without intraaneurysmal thrombus. Giant aneurysms were produced in the right thrombus. Giant aneurysms were produced in the right common carotid artery of nine mongrel dogs. Key features concerning the procedure were: (1) proximal placement of the aneurysmal neck, (2) 1 cm length as the aneurysmal ostea, and (3) postoperative aspirin therapy. This one-step construction of giant experimental aneurysms in dogs should prove helpful in evaluating a wide variety of treatment modalities of giant aneurysms in the laboratory. It also may be of additional value in investigative studies relative to catheters, balloons, and other similar techniques.

Unusual violation of the Wiedemann-Franz law at ultralow temperatures in topological compensated semimetals.

Nat Commun

Thermal conductivity and electrical resistivity at ultralow temperatures and high magnetic fields are studied in the topological compensated semimetals TaAs, NbAs, and NdSb. A striking phenomenon is observed where the thermal conductivity shows a T scaling at very low temperatures, while the resistivity shows a T-independent residual term. This indicates a strong violation of the Wiedemann-Franz (WF) law, since the field dependence of κ shows that the low-temperature thermal conductivity is dominated by electronic transport.

Quantitative investigation of the relationship between endosomal translation reactions and phospholipid membrane composition is crucial for enhancing protein translation efficiency in artificial cells. In this study, we quantitatively compared the translation reactions within liposomes containing negatively and positively charged lipids using green fluorescent protein fluorescence as an indicator to investigate whether lipid membrane charge affects translation reaction efficiency in artificial cells. Thus, translation efficiency reduced in liposomes containing both negatively and positively charged lipids.

Cyclic compounds are appealing owing to their intrinsic porous structures and facile accessibility as building blocks (BBs) for fabricating high-order assemblies. Nevertheless, the modular synthesis of such molecular entities and their subsequent controlled assembly are still very challenging. Herein, we report the synthesis of a gigantic molybdenum blue (MB) wheel {Mo} (), featuring a skirt-shaped structure dimerized from {Mo}.

Rare earth giant magnetostrictive ultrasonic transducers (GMUTs) hold significant potential for advancement in ultrasonic machining due to their superior properties. Building on the study of a modular multi-field coupled circuit simulation model of the transducer using LTspice, this work further proposes an improved circuit simulation model. By segmenting the transducer components, a segmented equivalent circuit model (SECM) is constructed to reflect the vibration characteristics at different positions within the components.

Evolution rom [Zn] to a record-high [Zn] subblock and engineering a hierarchical supramolecular framework for enhanced iodine uptake.

Hierarchical supramolecular frameworks are being designed and constructed for various applications, yet the controlled assembly and process understanding incorporating giant building blocks remains a great challenge. Here, we report a strategy of "rivet" substitution and "hinge" linkage for the controlled assembly of the hierarchical supramolecular framework. The replacement of two "rivet" ethylene glycol (EG) molecules for triangular prism [Zn] (a small block in 1) with a 1,3-propanediol (PDO) provides space for a "hinge" linkage from adjacent ligands, thus providing a hierarchical (from micro- to mesopores, from the internal cavity to external surface) supramolecular framework (2) based on a coordinative subblock with the record number of zinc ions ([Zn]).
