RESUMO

The design and synthesis of stable porous materials capable of removing both hard and soft metal ions pose a significant challenge. In this study, a novel metal-organic framework (MOF) adsorbent named CdK-m-COTTTB was developed. This MOF material was constructed using sulfur-rich m-cyclooctatetrathiophene-tetrabenzoate (m-H4COTTTB) as the organic ligand and oxygen-rich bimetallic clusters as the inorganic nodes. The incorporation of both soft and hard base units within the MOF structure enables effective removal of various heavy metal ions, including both soft and hard acid species. In single-component experiments, the adsorption capacity of CdK-m-COTTTB for Pb2+, Tb3+, and Zr4+ ions reached levels of 636.94, 432.90, and 357.14 mg·g-1, respectively, which is comparable to specific MOF absorbents. The rapid adsorption process was found to be chemisorption. Furthermore, CdK-m-COTTTB exhibited the capability to remove at least 12 different metal ions in both separate and multicomponent solutions. The material demonstrated excellent acid-base stability and renewability, which are advantageous for practical applications. CdK-m-COTTTB represents the first reported pristine MOF material for the removal of both hard and soft acid metal ions. This work serves as inspiration for the design and synthesis of porous crystalline materials that can efficiently remove diverse heavy metal pollutants.

RESUMO

Background: Metastatic burden of sentinel lymph node (SLN) in breast cancer patient is the basis for the decision to choose SLN biopsy or axillary lymph node dissection (ALND). However, the diagnostic performance of the previous percutaneous contrast-enhanced ultrasound (P-CEUS) and intravenous contrast-enhanced ultrasound (IV-CEUS) pattern were not satisfied. This study aimed to establish new classification based on structural characteristics for P-CEUS and IV-CEUS of SLN in breast cancer and evaluate the diagnostic efficacy. Methods: This retrospective study included consecutive breast cancer patients who had not received neoadjuvant therapy in the First Affiliated Hospital of Sun Yat-sen University between June 2019 and December 2021. Conventional ultrasound, P-CEUS and IV-CEUS were performed. The new classification methods for P-CEUS and IV-CEUS of SLN were established based on structural characteristics of SLN. Pathology was considered as the gold standard, the diagnostic efficacy of P-CEUS, IV-CEUS and combined contrast-enhanced ultrasound in SLNs was analyzed. Results: The detection rate of SLN by P-CEUS in 368 patients was 95.42%. The P-CEUS pattern of SLNs was divided into six types. The IV-CEUS sequence was divided into three types. The IV-CEUS mode was divided into four types. Among the 438 SLNs detected by P-CEUS, 105 (23.97%) were malignant and 333 (76.03%) were benign. Among the previously classified P-CEUS, P-CEUS, IV-CEUS and combined contrast-enhanced ultrasound, the latter had the highest diagnostic efficacy (P<0.05), with sensitivity, specificity, positive predictive value, negative predictive value, accuracy and area under curve (AUC) of 81.90% (86/105), 97.30% (324/333), 90.53% (86/95), 94.46% (324/343), 93.61% (410/438) and 0.896 (0.864-0.923), respectively. Conclusions: The new classification of the P-CEUS and IV-CEUS features of SLNs was performed based on structural characteristics of lymph nodes. Compared with the previously classified P-CEUS, the new classification method has higher diagnostic performance. The combination of new classified P-CEUS and IV-CEUS is helpful to further improve the diagnostic performance of SLNs.

RESUMO

Electrically conductive metal-organic frameworks (cMOFs) have garnered significant attention in materials science due to their potential applications in modern electrical devices. However, achieving effective modulation of their conductivity has proven to be a major challenge. In this study, we have successfully prepared cMOFs with high conductivity by incorporating electron-donating fused thiophen rings in the frameworks and extending their π-conjugated systems through ring-closing reactions. The conductivity of cMOFs can be precisely modulated ranging from 10-3 to 102 S m-1 by regulating their dimensions and topologies. Furthermore, leveraging the inherent tunable electrical properties based on topology, we successfully demonstrated the potential of these materials as chemiresistive gas sensors with an outstanding response toward 100 ppm NH3 at room temperature. This work not only provides valuable insights into the design of functional cMOFs with different topologies but also enriches the cMOF family with exceptional conductivity properties.

RESUMO

Background: Chemo-endocrine therapy is the standard adjuvant treatment strategy for hormone receptor-positive (HR+) early breast cancer. Our research aimed to compare the efficacy of adjuvant chemo-endocrine therapies, regarding different endocrinal regimens and integration sequences (sequential or concomitant), for HR+ early breast cancer. Methods: PubMed, Embase, the Cochrane Library and web of science were searched for articles published before October 2018 with Clinicaltrials.gov (https://clinicaltrials.gov) for registered clinical trials and ASCO, AACR, ESCO, SABCS meeting abstracts for addition. Randomized clinical trials (RCTs) comparing chemotherapy and/or endocrine therapy in the adjuvant treatment of primary breast cancer patients were included. Hazard ratios (HRs) of disease-free survival (DFS) and overall survival (OS) were extracted and analyzed in Bayesian analysis. Patients were stratified by menopause status. Results: Thirty-three trials with 28,515 patients and 19 treatments were enrolled. Comparisons between regimens has seen better efficacy of ovarian function suppressor (OFS) + aromatase inhibitors (AI) than OFS + tamoxifen, either used concurrently [HR =0.69, 95% credible intervals (CrI): 0.47-1.02] or sequentially with chemotherapy (HR =0.72, 95% CrI: 0.49-1.06) in premenopausal patients. Adding OFS to tamoxifen was marginally better than tamoxifen used alone (DFS: HR =0.85, 95% CrI: 0.65-1.09; OS: HR =0.77, 95% CrI: 0.52-1.08). Comparisons between different sequences of chemo-endocrine therapy proved equal efficacy in premenopausal and postmenopausal patients. Recommendation was given based on ranking of treatments. Sequential and concurrent use of chemotherapy and OFS + AI ranked equally in premenopausal patients and were recommended as the best option. However, tamoxifen ranked higher when used concurrently with chemotherapy in both premenopausal and postmenopausal HR+ early breast cancer. Conclusions: In the adjuvant chemo-endocrine therapy for premenopausal HR+ early breast cancer, concurrent and sequential adjuvant chemo-endocrine therapy was demonstrated of equal efficacy in both postmenopausal and premenopausal HR+ early breast cancer.
