A novel phosphonate assisted fabrication dendritic fibrous nanosilica (DFNS)-based adsorbing material was successfully synthesis via organic modification with 3-aminopropyltriethoxysilane (KH550), epichlorohydrin (ECH) and phytic acid (PA) on the grounds of hard-soft-acid-base theory, in which organic phosphorous can be applied for efficient chelating uranium(VI) (U(VI)). The adsorption properties can be evaluated by setting a series parameters (pH, adsorbent dose, contact time, initial U(VI) concentration). It is clear that uranium as a "hard" lewis acid can easily form chelating bond with "hard" donor-ligands so that as-papered PA-DFNS has an excellent adsorption capacity (q = 1106 mg g, 298.15 K), which exhibits a 163% increment compared with that of original DNFS under the same condition. In the meantime, the adsorption equilibrium time of PA-DNFS (t = 60 min) was shortened by 33% compared with that of pristine DNFS. Besides, the PA-DFNS exhibited good removal efficiency and stability under the 0.1 M HNO after 6 cycles, extending the application of PA-DFNS in the field of adsorption.

The conversion of diluted CO₂ into high-energy fuels is increasingly central to renewable energy research. This study investigates the efficacy of a Gd₂NiMnO₆ dendritic nanofibrous (DNF) photocatalyst in transforming carbon dioxide to methane through photoreduction. Gd₂NiMnO₆ DNF was found to provide active adsorption sites and control the strand dimensions for metal groups, facilitating the chemical absorption of CO₂.

Solitary fibrous tumors (SFTs) are classified as fibroblastic/myofibroblastic tumors that originate from CD34-positive dendritic cells and usually occur in the pleura. In this paper, we describe a case of SFT within the joint cavity of the left knee. A 60-year-old man was admitted to hospital due to swelling in the left knee for the past 8 months without relevant trauma history.

Purpose: To study cellular and neural changes around the donor and recipient areas after pterygium excision combined with autologous conjunctival transplantation using corneal confocal microscopy, we evaluated the postoperative impact of this surgical procedure.
Methods: Patients with primary pterygium located on the nasal side who visited the Department of Ophthalmology of Wuxi Second People's Hospital between April and August 2023 were enrolled. Age-matched healthy eyes were included as the control group.

Canine cutaneous histiocytoma (CCH) is a tumor that originates from dermal Langerhans cells and affects particularly young dogs. The common spontaneous regression of CCH makes it an interesting model in comparative oncology research. Previous studies have indicated that anti-tumor immune responses may be involved, but details remain speculative to date.
