Background: Stable water dynamics during endoscopic spine surgery improves the surgeon's comfort and patient's outcomes. We aimed to measure the water dynamics during spinal surgery and identify the factors that facilitate stable water dynamics.
Methods: This open-label, prospective, proficiency-matched, in vivo study included patients with single-level degenerative spinal disease. After assessing their heights and balancing the matched instrument, we measured the irrigation fluid pressure in various situations. We performed multiple regression analysis based on odds ratio (OR), confidence interval (CI), and relationships (proficiency-matched) with possible instrumental and physical characteristics. The instrumental factors were the presence and length of a rigid cannulation, and the physical characteristics were body mass index (body mass index [BMI]), skin-to-dura depth, height (interaction with BMI), and body weight (interaction with BMI).
Results: Of the 36 patients, 29 were included. The mean pressure of the operation cavity was 16.66 ± 9.12 cm HO (12.25 ± 6.71 mm Hg). Water pressure with the rigid cannulation (9.41 ± 2.94 cm HO [6.92 ± 2.16 mm Hg]) was significantly lower than that without cannulation (23.43 ± 7.57 cm HO [17.26 ± 5.57 mm Hg], P < 0.01). Water pressure correlated with cannular length (OR = -1.08, CI = -1.79, -0.37, P < 0.01) and BMI (OR = 0.56, CI = 0.12, 0.99, P < 0.01). BMI showed a proportional relationship (r = 0.84, P < 0.01).
Conclusions: During biportal endoscopy, we suggest maintaining water pressure between 4.41 cm HO (2.41 mm Hg) and 31.00 cm HO (22.83 mm Hg). Compared to physical characteristics, placement of the cannula and appropriate cannula length are important factors that affect water dynamics.

A major uncertainty in predicting the behaviour of marine-terminating glaciers is ice dynamics driven by non-linear calving front retreat, which is poorly understood and modelled. Using 124919 calving front positions for 149 marine-terminating glaciers in Svalbard from 1985 to 2023, generated with deep learning, we identify pervasive calving front retreats for non-surging glaciers over the past 38 years. We observe widespread seasonal cycles in calving front position for over half of the glaciers.

Developing sensitive and reliable methods for detecting antibiotics in water solutions is essential for protecting public health and the environment. Here, we report a novel fluorescent film with superior mechanical properties and detection response to ciprofloxacin (CIP), achieved through the in-situ growth of europium-based metal-organic frameworks on TEMPO-oxidized cellulose nanofibrils (TOCNF). Firstly, Eu(III) and 2,6-pyridinedicarboxylic acid (DPA) served as precursors, and a simple self-assembly strategy was employed to grow the composite film material (Eu-DPA@TOCNF) in situ on TOCNF, which exhibited characteristic emission peaks.

ConspectusFor chemical reactions with complex pathways, it is extremely difficult to adjust the catalytic performance. The previous strategies on this issue mainly focused on modifying the fine structures of the catalysts, including optimization of the geometric/electronic structure of the metal nanoparticles (NPs), regulation of the chemical composition/morphology of the supports, and/or adjustment of the metal-support interactions to modulate the reaction kinetics on the catalyst surface. Although significant advances have been achieved, the catalytic performance is still unsatisfactory.

Oxygen evolution reaction (OER) is a cornerstone of various electrochemical energy conversion and storage systems, including water splitting, CO/N reduction, reversible fuel cells, and rechargeable metal-air batteries. OER typically proceeds through three primary mechanisms: adsorbate evolution mechanism (AEM), lattice oxygen oxidation mechanism (LOM), and oxide path mechanism (OPM). Unlike AEM and LOM, the OPM proceeds via direct oxygen-oxygen radical coupling that can bypass linear scaling relationships of reaction intermediates in AEM and avoid catalyst structural collapse in LOM, thereby enabling enhanced catalytic activity and stability.
