Published: December 2009

High pressure Raman spectroscopy of NH(3)BH(3)-H(2) mixtures up to 60 GPa reveals unusual pressure-induced complexation and intermolecular interactions. Stretching modes of H(2) in the complex arise at 6.7 and 10 GPa, increasing in frequency with pressure of up to 60 GPa with different pressure coefficients, and at approximately 40 GPa, the lower frequency mode approaches vibron frequency of bulk H(2). Pressure-induced transformations in pure NH(3)BH(3) studied up to 60 GPa reveal a disorder-order transition at 1 GPa (phase II) and further transitions at 5 (phase III) and 10 GPa (phase IV). The spectra of both pure NH(3)BH(3) and the NH(3)BH(3)-H(2) complex provide evidence for strengthened of the N-H(delta+)...H(delta-)-B dihydrogen bonding linkages up to 50 GPa, beyond which they weaken. The dihydrogen bonding breaks down due to interactions with H(2) between 15 and 20 GPa in the NH(3)BH(3)-H(2) complex. The behavior of the nu(NH(3)) modes in the NH(3)BH(3)-H(2) complex indicates a dominant role of the NH(3) functional group in the observed interactions.

Pediatric Immuno-Rheumatology Unit, Fondazione IRCCS Ca' Granda Ospedale Maggiore Policlinico, Milan, Italy.

Background: Atraumatic avascular necrosis (AVN) is a severe condition that may complicate the course of rheumatic diseases and contribute to long-term damage. However, there is a lack of evidence on this rare event in pediatric rheumatology. The aim of our study was to evaluate the occurrence of avascular necrosis in the context of rheumatologic diseases in Italy and to describe the main demographic and clinical features of AVN patients, with a particular focus on treatment background.

Background: Hepatic glycogen storage diseases (GSD) are inborn errors of metabolism with abnormal storage or utilization of glycogen, a complex disease with significant genetic heterogeneity and similar clinical manifestations. This study aimed to describe the gastrointestinal symptoms and endoscopic features of hepatic GSD, including types Ia, Ib, III, VI, and IX, to provide evidence for etiology and treatment.

Methods: A national cohort survey questionnaire was distributed to patients diagnosed with GSD type Ia, Ib, III, VI, and IX through genetic testing or their parents in mainland China in May 2022.

Background: CDK4/6 inhibitors have significantly improved the survival of patients with HR-positive/HER2-negative breast cancer, becoming a first-line treatment option. However, the development of resistance to these inhibitors is inevitable. To address this challenge, novel strategies are required to overcome resistance, necessitating a deeper understanding of its mechanisms.

Purpose: This study aimed to evaluate and compare the fracture resistance of long-span fixed provisional restorations fabricated using milling, three-dimensional (3D) printing, and conventional methods.

Materials And Methods: Sixty specimens were prepared, divided into four groups of 15 each, corresponding to four fabrication methods: computer-aided design and computer-aided manufacturing (CAD-CAM) milled provisional resins, 3D-printed provisional resins, 3D-printed permanent resins, and conventional bis-acryl restorations reinforced with wire. The specimens underwent a three-point bending test using a universal testing machine to measure fracture resistance, quantified as maximum force (in Newtons).
