A new family of Y(4)/M(2) and Y(5)/M heterobimetallic rare-earth-metal/d-block-transition-metal-polyhydride complexes has been synthesized. The reactions of the tetranuclear yttrium-octahydride complex [{Cp''Y(μ-H)(2)}(4)(thf)(4)] (Cp'' = C(5)Me(4)H, 1-C(5)Me(4)H) with one equivalent of Group-6-metal-pentahydride complexes [Cp*M(PMe(3))H(5)] (M = Mo, W; Cp* = C(5)Me(5)) afforded pentanuclear heterobimetallic Y(4)/M-polyhydride complexes [{(Cp''Y)(4)(μ-H)(7)}(μ-H)(4)MCp*(PMe(3))] (M = Mo (2 a), W (2 b)). UV irradiation of compounds 2 a,b in THF gave PMe(3)-free complexes [{(Cp''Y)(4)(μ-H)(6)(thf)(2)}(μ-H)(5)MCp*] (M = Mo (3 a), W (3 b)). Compounds 3 a,b reacted with one equivalent of [Cp*M(PMe(3))H(5)] to afford hexanuclear Y(4)/M(2) complexes [{Cp*M(μ-H)(5)}{(Cp''Y)(4)(μ-H)(5)}{(μ-H)(4)MCp*(PMe(3))}] (M = Mo (4 a), W (4 b)). UV irradiation of compounds 4 a,b provided the PMe(3)-free complexes [(Cp''Y)(4)(μ-H)(4){(μ-H)(5)MCp*}(2)] (M = Mo (5 a), W (5 b)). C(5)Me(4)Et-ligated analogue [(Cp''Y)(4)(μ-H)(4){(μ-H)(5)Mo(C(5)Me(4)Et)}(2)] (5 a') was obtained from the reaction of 1-C(5)Me(4)H with [(C(5)Me(4)Et)Mo(PMe(3))H(5)]. On the other hand, the reaction of pentanuclear yttrium-decahydride complex [{(C(5)Me(4)R)Y(μ-H)(2)}(5)(thf)(2)] (1-C(5)Me(5): R = Me; 1-C(5)Me(4)Et: R = Et) with [Cp*M(PMe(3))H(5)] gave the hexanuclear heterobimetallic Y(5)/M-polyhydride complexes [({(C(5)Me(4)R)Y}(5)(μ-H)(8))(μ-H)(5)MCp*] (6 a: M = Mo, R = Me; 6 a': M = Mo, R = Et; 6 b: M = W, R = Me). Compound 5 a released two molecules of H(2) under vacuum to give [(Cp''Y)(4)(μ-H)(2){(μ-H)(4)MoCp*}(2)] (7). In contrast, compound 6 a lost one molecule of H(2) under vacuum to yield [{(Cp*Y)(5)(μ-H)(7)}(μ-H)(4)MoCp*] (8). Both compounds 7 and 8 readily reacted with H(2) to regenerate compounds 5 a and 6 a, respectively. The structures of compounds 4 a, 5 a', 6 a', 7, and 8 were determined by single-crystal X-ray diffraction.

Bioprinting approaches in cardiac tissue engineering to reproduce blood-pumping heart function.

The heart, with its complex structural and functional characteristics, plays a critical role in sustaining life by pumping blood throughout the entire body to supply nutrients and oxygen. Engineered heart tissues have been introduced to reproduce heart functions to understand the pathophysiological properties of the heart and to test and develop potential therapeutics. Although numerous studies have been conducted in various fields to increase the functionality of heart tissue to be similar to reality, there are still many difficulties in reproducing the blood-pumping function of the heart.

The implantation of the mouse blastocyst initiates a complex sequence of tissue remodeling and cell differentiation events required for morphogenesis, during which the extraembryonic primitive endoderm transitions into the visceral endoderm. Through single-cell RNA sequencing of embryos at embryonic day 5.0, shortly after implantation, we reveal that this transition is driven by dynamic signaling activities, notably the upregulation of BMP signaling and a transient increase in Sox7 expression.

This case report presents the use of intravascular lithotripsy (IVL) in a 68-year-old woman with disabling bilateral claudication owing to a heavily calcified subocclusive stenosis of the infrarenal aorta. The patient had a history of tobacco use, dyslipidemia, and chronic obstructive pulmonary disease, with absent femoral pulses and severe arterial calcification. A 12-mm Shockwave L6 lithotripsy catheter was employed to treat the aortic lesion, resulting in a significant decrease in the aortic pressure gradient without the need for stenting.

When seeking to release public use files for confidential data, statistical agencies can generate fully synthetic data. We propose an approach for making fully synthetic data from surveys collected with complex sampling designs. Our approach adheres to the general strategy proposed by Rubin (1993).

Background: Little is known about the practices and resources employed by general practitioners (GPs) in Singapore to manage late-life depression. As the country is stepping up its efforts to promote collaborative care across community mental health and geriatric care, understanding GPs' current practices when managing late-life depression appears timely.
Methods: This qualitative descriptive study explored the perspectives on late-life depression of 28 private GPs practicing in Singapore through online semi-structured group and individual interviews.
