Aim: To assess the performance of a prospective adverse event (AE) reporting system.

Materials And Methods: Four hundred and seventy-one consecutive arterial procedures were performed in 465 patients (median age, 65 years; interquartile range, 54-77; 276 men) over 2 years by four interventional radiologists at a single centre where clinical follow-up was not performed routinely by interventional radiology (IR). AEs were reported prospectively using a radiology information system or in interventional radiologists' electronic records and combined in a departmental listing of adverse events (DLAE). A retrospective medical record review was performed to identify a reference standard list of AEs for this observational cohort study. AEs were graded according to the Society of Interventional Radiology AE classification system. Descriptive statistics were calculated for the performance of the DLAE. A model comparing the rate of reporting of AEs with and without integration of clinical follow-up was tested for significance.

Results: Thirty-eight of the 471 (8%) IR procedures had an AE according to the reference standard. The DLAE identified 20/38 (53%) of AEs (K=0.67 [good agreement], 95% confidence interval [CI] agreement=0.53-0.81; p=0.0001; sensitivity 52.6% [95% CI, 36-69%], specificity 100% [95% CI, 99-100%], positive predictive value [PPV] 100%, negative predictive value [NPV] 96 [95% CI, 94.5-97%], accuracy 96% [95% CI, 94-97%]). The performance of the AE reporting system will improve with integration of clinical follow-up (p=0.0015).

Conclusion: A prospective AE reporting system without clinical integration will not detect all procedure complications.

Hierarchical Selenium-Doped Nickel-Cobalt Hybrids on Carbon Paper for the Overall Water-Splitting Electrocatalytic System.

Designing and constructing hierarchically structured materials with heterogeneous compositions is the key to developing an effective catalyst for overall water-splitting applications. Herein, we report the fabrication of hollow-structured selenium-doped nickel-cobalt hybrids on carbon paper as a self-supported electrode (denoted as Se-Ni|Co/CP, where Ni|Co hybrids consist of nickel-cobalt alloy-incorporated nickel-cobalt oxide). The procedure involves direct growth of zeolitic imidazolate framework-67 (ZIF-67) on bimetal-based nickel-cobalt hydroxide (NiCoOH) electrodeposited on CP, followed by selenous etching and pyrolysis to obtain the final Se-Ni|Co/CP electrocatalytic system.

Noncovalent interactions are present in numerous synthetic and biological systems, playing an essential role in vital processes for life such as stabilization of proteins' structures or reversible binding in substrate-receptor complexes. Their study is relevant, but it presents challenges due to its inherent weak nature. In this context, molecular balances (MBs) are one of the most efficient physical organic chemistry tools to quantify noncovalent interactions, bringing beneficial knowledge regarding their nature and strength.

Diabetes mellitus (DM) is a debilitating disorder that impacts all systems of the body and has been increasing in prevalence throughout the globe. DM represents a significant clinical challenge to care for individuals and prevent the onset of chronic disability and ultimately death. Underlying cellular mechanisms for the onset and development of DM are multi-factorial in origin and involve pathways associated with the production of reactive oxygen species and the generation of oxidative stress as well as the dysfunction of mitochondrial cellular organelles, programmed cell death, and circadian rhythm impairments.

Ma recently reported in the that ferroptosis occurs in osteoblasts under high glucose conditions, reflecting diabetes pathology. This condition could be protected by the upregulation of the gene encoding polycytosine RNA-binding protein 1 (PCBP1). Additionally, Ma used a lentivirus infection system to express PCBP1.
