One of the original biomechanical principles of reverse total shoulder arthroplasty (RTSA) is medialization of the center of rotation (COR) relative to the native level of the glenoid. Several authors have proposed the lateralized center of rotation, which is characterized by a lateralized (L) glenoid and medialized (M) humeral component. The aim of this review is to compare the clinical and functional outcomes of COR in medialized (M-RTSA) and lateralized (L-RTSA) RTSA in patients with uniform indications and treatment through a meta-analysis. A PRISMA-guided literature search of PubMed, Medline, Embase, Scopus, Cochrane Central Register of Controlled Trials, Cochrane Database of Systematic Reviews and Cochrane Clinical Answers was conducted from April to May 2021. Twenty-four studies were included in the qualitative synthesis, and 19 studies were included in the meta-analysis. Treatment with RTSA resulted in positive post-operative outcomes and low complication rates for both groups. Statistically relevant differences between L-RTSA group and M-RTSA group were found in post-operative improvement in external rotation with arm-at-side (20.4° and 8.3°, respectively), scapular notching rates (6.6% and 47.7%) and post-operative infection rates (1% and 7.7%). Both lateralized and medialized designs were shown to improve the postoperative outcomes. Nevertheless, a lateralized COR resulted in greater post-operative external rotation.

Crown-ether coordination compounds of europium(II/III) and the crown ether (CHO) (24-crown-8, 24c8) are prepared, aiming at novel compounds, structures, and coordination modes as well as potential luminescence properties. By reacting EuCl, EuI, or EuCl with 24c8 or its derivatives in ionic liquids, the novel compounds [BuMeN][Eu(II)(NTf)] (), [BMIm][EuI] (), [EuCl(dibenzo-18c6)] (), [EuI(dibenzo-24c8)] (), [(Eu(III)Cl)(CHO)](24c8) (), and [Eu(III)Cl(24c8)]I () are obtained (BMIm: 1-butyl-3-methylimidazolium; EMIm: 1-ethyl-3-methylimidazolium). Based on different reaction conditions, different coordinative modes including the absence of the crown ether in the product (, ), splitting of the crown ether (), and coordination of 24c8 via six of eight oxygen atoms () and, finally, via all oxygen atoms () are observed.

The corona virus disease-19 (COVID-19) epidemic, the whole globe is suffering from a medical condition catastrophe that is unprecedented in scale. As the coronavirus spreads, scientists are worried about offering or helping in the supply of remedies to preserve lives and end the epidemic. Artificial intelligence (AI), for example, has occurred altered to deal with the difficulties raised by pandemics.

An accurate assessment of the electrodeposition mechanism is essential for evaluating the electrochemical stability and reversibility of the metal anodes. Multiple strategies aimed at uniform Zn deposition have been extensively reported, yet it is challenging to clarify the Zn crystal growth regularity and activity due to the obscured physicochemical properties of as-deposited Zn. Herein, we present a protocol for elucidating the controlled epitaxial growth process of Zn crystals and quantifying their surface electrochemical activity using scanning electrochemical microscopy.

Lysosomes are acidic membrane-bound organelles that aid digestion, excretion, and cell renewal. The lysosomal membranes are essential for maintaining lysosomal functions and cellular homeostasis. In this work, we developed a molecular "NOR" logic gate, , by introducing malachite green into the spirocyclic rhodamine.
