Introduction: Despite the acknowledged interconnection between socioeconomic environment and economic crime, research on the relationship between Goods and Services Tax (GST) and economic crime is scarce because of their complicated relationship. This study examines the impact of the GST increase on the illicit tobacco trade.

Methods: Based on China's tobacco excise tax shock in 2015, this study employs a difference-in-difference (DID) method to analyze the impact of the GST increase on economic crime.

Machine learning-based radiomics for guiding lymph node dissection in clinical stage I lung adenocarcinoma: a multicenter retrospective study.

Transl Lung Cancer Res

December 2024

Department of Thoracic Surgery, National Cancer Center/National Clinical Research Center for Cancer/Cancer Hospital, Chinese Academy of Medical Sciences and Peking Union Medical College, Beijing, China.

Background: Preoperative assessment of lymph node status is critical in managing lung cancer, as it directly impacts the surgical approach and treatment planning. However, in clinical stage I lung adenocarcinoma (LUAD), determining lymph node metastasis (LNM) is often challenging due to the limited sensitivity of conventional imaging modalities, such as computed tomography (CT) and positron emission tomography/CT (PET/CT). This study aimed to establish an effective radiomics prediction model using multicenter data for early assessment of LNM risk in patients with clinical stage I LUAD.

Background: The deep inferior epigastric perforator (DIEP) flap is universally considered the gold standard technique for breast reconstruction (BR), though it cannot always be proposed to patients with insufficient donor-site volume. We explore the efficacy of autologous fat transfer (AFT) of the Holm abdomen zone IV in the retropectoral plane during DIEP flap reconstruction (lipo-DIEP flap), to enhance the volume provided by the abdominal donor site in patients with low body mass index (BMI).

Methods: We prospectively enrolled patients with BMI less than 25 kg/m and candidates for lipo-DIEP flap BR (group A) comparing them with a control group (group B) undergoing traditional DIEP flap BR with the same characteristics of the first group (BMI < 25 kg/m).

Objective: This study was to employ 18F-flurodeoxyglucose (FDG-PET) to evaluate the resting-state brain glucose metabolism in a sample of 46 patients diagnosed with disorders of consciousness (DoC). The aim was to identify objective quantitative metabolic indicators and predictors that could potentially indicate the level of awareness in these patients.

Methods: A cohort of 46 patients underwent Coma Recovery Scale-Revised (CRS-R) assessments in order to distinguish between the minimally conscious state (MCS) and the unresponsive wakefulness syndrome (UWS).

Existing studies have established a linear relationship between urban environments and adolescent health, but the combined impacts of subjective and objective environments on multi-dimensional health status (including physical and mental health) have not been fully explored. Furthermore, while some studies have examined the non-linear relationship between urban environments and adult health, research specifically focusing on adolescents is sparse. Using Kunming, China, as a case study, we employ Random Forest model to examine the non-linear relationship between subjective/objective neighborhood environments and adolescent physical/mental health.

Enterprise innovation investment is influenced by the actions of innovation subjects, whereas regulating shareholders' equity pledge behavior facilitates innovation investment and finance but also carries dangers and affects enterprise innovation investment. Methods:This paper builds an unbalanced panel model to empirically analyze the impact of controlling shareholders' equity pledges on corporate innovation and its heterogeneous characteristics. It also looks at the moderating role of corporate financing constraints and the mediating role of equity incentives, using data from A-share listed companies in China's pharmaceutical manufacturing industry from 2015 to 2022.

Rural/urban disparities in cocaine use treatment are commonly attributed to variations in social epidemiological constructs, such as socioeconomic status and well-being, social capital and support, and discrimination, as well as health care attitudes and health beliefs. This study examined whether these factors mediate rural vs. urban disparities in perceived need for cocaine use treatment, a concept closely linked to treatment utilization.

Steric and Electronic Effects of Zirconocenealkyl-Borate Ion Pairs on Catalyst Activation: A Theoretical Study.

ACS Omega

January 2025

Unit of Excellence in Computational Molecular Science and Catalysis, and Division of Chemistry, School of Science, University of Phayao, Phayao 56000, Thailand.

The effectiveness of metallocene catalysts in the cationic ring-opening polymerization (cationic ROP) of ε-caprolactone (CL) is influenced by the choice of metallocene/borate systems, particularly their bulkiness. Recent research examines this effect on the initiation and propagation stages of cationic ROP. We conducted a density functional theory study on the precatalyst activation of cationic CL ROP by zirconocene/borate catalysts, where four models of zirconocene precatalysts (CpZrMe (), (MeCp)CpZrMe (), (MeCp)ZrMe (), and IndZrMe ()) were combined with boron cocatalysts B(CF) and [X][B(CF) ] (X = PhC or PhMeNH).

Chitosan is generally considered to be a procoagulant effect, which may cause adverse phenomena such as blood clotting when used in small-diameter vascular grafts. However, it also shows good biocompatibility and anti-inflammatory properties, which can facilitate vascular reconstruction. Therefore, it is significant to transition the effect of chitosan from coagulation promotion to antiplatelet while still harnessing its bioactivity.

We propose a modular addition strategy-regulated polymerization-induced self-assembly (PISA) system to effectively control the reaction kinetics and self-assembly morphologies. We validated this strategy by performing experiments on a well-established PISA system. Two categories of modular addition strategies, , the multistep addition strategy and the constant rate addition strategy, were investigated.

Bedaquiline fumarate tablets are a novel oral antimycobacterial drug. This study assessed the bioequivalence of a generic bedaquiline fumarate tablet compared to a reference tablet under fasting (n = 44) and fed (n = 24) conditions. Conducted as a single-center, randomized, open-label, 2-sequence, crossover trial, 68 participants were randomly assigned to receive a 100-mg dose of either the test or reference tablet, with a 42-day washout period between doses.
