RESUMEN

In the past decade, metal halide materials have been favored by many researchers because of their excellent physical and chemical properties under thermal, electrical, and light stimuli, such as ferroelectricity, dielectric, nonlinearity, fluorescence, and semiconductors, greatly promoting their application in optoelectronic devices. In this study, we successfully constructed an unleaded organic-inorganic hybrid perovskite crystal: [Cl-C6H4-(CH2)2NH3]3SbBr6 (1), which underwent a high-temperature reversible phase transition near Tp = 368 K. The phase transition behavior of 1 was characterized by differential scanning calorimetry, accompanied by a thermal hysteresis of 6 K. In addition, variable-temperature Raman spectroscopy analysis and PXRD further verified the sensitivity of 1 to temperature and the phase transition from low symmetry to high symmetry. Temperature-dependent dielectric testing shows that 1 can be a sensitive switching dielectric constant switching material. Remarkably, 1 exhibits strong photoluminescence emission with a wavelength of 478 nm and a narrow band gap of 2.7 eV in semiconductors. As the temperature increases and decreases, fluorescence undergoes significant changes, especially near Tc, which further confirms the reversible phase transition of 1. All of these findings provide new avenues for designing and assembling new phase change materials with high Tp and photoluminescence properties.

RESUMEN

BACKGROUND: Amid the COVID-19 pandemic, the significance of vaccination has been emphatically underscored. As the foremost and pivotal measure for preventing COVID-19 transmission, the COVID-19 pneumonia vaccine plays an instrumental role in the global response to this infectious respiratory disease. However, COVID-19 vaccination coverage remains challenging in low- and middle-income countries and regions. Studies have found that frequent seeking to health information is also associated with healthier behaviors, but these studies have not yet focused on the impact of Internet health information seeking on individual vaccination and the mechanism of this effect. METHODS: Data were obtained from the Chinese General Social Survey (CGSS) conducted in 2021, which included 7,218 individual samples. This study used COVID-19 vaccination as indicators for the health of interest, the key independent variable is Internet health information seeking. This study tried to analyze the impact of Internet health information seeking on COVID-19 vaccination using an OLS model and PSM method. RESULTS: The results show that Internet health information seeking has a significant positive impact on COVID-19 vaccination. This result passed a series of robustness tests. The mechanism analysis indicated that compared to non-Internet health information seeking individuals, Internet health information seeking individuals could know the superior advantages of vaccination and the potential for immunization through this method. And individuals who use Internet to seeking health information are more likely to acknowledge the constructive impact of online information on health behavior. This helps to explain why Internet health information seeking individuals have a higher rate of COVID-19 vaccination. CONCLUSIONS: This study delves into the influence of Internet health information seeking on individual COVID-19 vaccination within the digital era. The outcomes underscore that Internet-mediated seeking vaccine information holds the potential to bolster individuals' comprehension of vaccination benefits and foster increased acceptance of such information.

RESUMEN

Rodents and shrews are major reservoirs of various pathogens that are related to zoonotic infectious diseases. The purpose of this study was to investigate co-infections of zoonotic pathogens in rodents and shrews trapped in four provinces of China. We sampled different rodent and shrew communities within and around human settlements in four provinces of China and characterised several important zoonotic viral, bacterial, and parasitic pathogens by PCR methods and phylogenetic analysis. A total of 864 rodents and shrews belonging to 24 and 13 species from RODENTIA and EULIPOTYPHLA orders were captured, respectively. For viral pathogens, two species of hantavirus (Hantaan orthohantavirus and Caobang orthohantavirus) were identified in 3.47% of rodents and shrews. The overall prevalence of Bartonella spp., Anaplasmataceae, Babesia spp., Leptospira spp., Spotted fever group Rickettsiae, Borrelia spp., and Coxiella burnetii were 31.25%, 8.91%, 4.17%, 3.94%, 3.59%, 3.47%, and 0.58%, respectively. Furthermore, the highest co-infection status of three pathogens was observed among Bartonella spp., Leptospira spp., and Anaplasmataceae with a co-infection rate of 0.46%. Our results suggested that species distribution and co-infections of zoonotic pathogens were prevalent in rodents and shrews, highlighting the necessity of active surveillance for zoonotic pathogens in wild mammals in wider regions.

RESUMEN

Data sharing is very important for medical researchers to do research on certain diseases in cloud-assisted electronic medical systems. Nonetheless, there are large amounts of duplicate data in shared electronic medical records, which incurs redundant storage. In addition, data sharing of electronic medical records might expose the sensitive information of patients. In order to address above problems, we propose a secure data sharing scheme with data deduplication and sensitive information hiding in cloud-assisted electronic medical systems in this paper. In order to protect the sensitive information privacy and enhance the deduplication efficiency, we replace the patient's sensitive information of electronic medical records by wildcards before encrypting the whole electronic medical records. The authorized researcher can decrypt and obtain the electronic medical records under the condition that the sensitive information of shared electronic medical records is hidden. Moreover, we clarify the diagnose information of the electronic medical records into different types according to the duplicate ratio. The authorized researchers can selectively download data according to the duplicate ratio of diagnostic information. Our proposed scheme can resist brute-force attacks and single-point-of-failure attack. The experimental results show our proposed scheme is more efficient than the existing schemes.

RESUMEN

BACKGROUND: The differentiation between untypical intestinal tuberculosis (UITB) and untypical Crohn's disease (UCD) is a challenge. AIMS: To analyze phenotypic variables and propose a novel prediction model for differential diagnosis of two conditions. METHODS: A total of 192 patients were prospectively enrolled. The clinical, laboratory, endoscopic, and radiological features were investigated and subjected to univariable and multivariable analyses. The final prediction model for differentiation between UCD and UITB was developed by logistic regression analysis and Fisher discriminant analysis on the training set. The same discriminant function was tested on the validation set. RESULTS: Twenty-five candidates were selected from 52 phenotypic variables of typical Crohn's disease (TCD), UCD, and UITB patients. UCD's variables overlapped with both TCD and UITB. The percentages of tuberculosis history, positive PPD, and positive T-SPOT result in UCD were all significantly higher than that in TCD (11.6% vs. 0.0%, 27.9% vs. 0.0%, 25.6% vs. 4.5%, respectively, P < 0.05). The regression equations and Fisher discriminant function for discrimination between UCD and UITB were developed. In the training data, the area under the receiver operating characteristic of equations was 0.834, 0.69, and 0.648 in the clinical-laboratory, endoscopic, and radiological model, respectively. The accuracy of Fisher discriminant function for discrimination was 86% in UCD and 73% in UITB in the validation data. CONCLUSIONS: Phenotypes of UCD patients in TB-endemic countries may be associated with TB infection history. Fisher discriminant analysis is a good choice to differentiate UCD from UITB, which is worthy of verification in clinical practice.

RESUMEN

This study attempts to employ wood sawdust and rice husk as biorenewable conditioners to improve the efficiency and energy consumption of sewage sludge thermal drying, besides revealing the mechanism of drying. Response surface methodology (RSM) approach has been used to optimize the operational parameters (drying temperature and dose of conditioners). Investigations into the thermal performance, water distribution and morphological of sludge have been used to explain the improvements obtained in the properties of drying with the addition of biomass. The optimal conditions found out were: 10% rice husk and 10% wood sawdust at 120 °C, which resulted in drying time to reduce by 17.64% with the energy consumption savings by 46.37% for the conditioned sludge. Also, the mechanism on the roles of these additives has been found out as follows: (1) Addition of biomass enhances the thermal conductivity of the conditioned sludge, leading to improvements in its heat transfer capacity; (2) Bound water → free water and strongly bonding water → weakly bonding water, due to cationic osmotic effects; (3) Structures with rigidity and porosity provide sufficient passages for the vapors to escape.

RESUMEN

Genetic resources are important national strategic resources. Their preservation, protection and rational utilization form a solid foundation to guarantee national security and to build national competitiveness for the future. Due to a relatively late starting point, China is actively catching up with global peers in storing genetic samples and data. In view of this, in 2011 China approved a plan to build its first nation-level comprehensive gene bank, the China National GeneBank (CNGB), and entrusted BGI-Research to implement its construction and operation. It is China's first gene bank for "reading, writing and storing" bioresources. In this paper, we summarize the development of influential platforms at home and abroad, and focus on CNGB's position, mission, and its structure of "Three Banks and Two Platforms". CNGB launched its official operation in September 2016 and aims to develop a world-class, non-profit and strategic platform that supports science and technology development. It has built capacities to store tens of millions of traceable samples and to analyze handreds of thousanda of WGS each year. It has also set up China's first Pb-level digitalization platform and a high-efficient synthesis platform with a production rate of ten million bases per year. Based on such capacities, CNGB has established its open sharing mechanism for biological samples and data, provided public platform services for life science research, and achieved initial results in supporting innovation and development of the bio-industry.

RESUMEN

Water resources management is an important public concern. In this study, we examined the extent of sorption/desorption of trace pollutants to soil black carbon (BC) in the water level fluctuation zone (WLFZ) of the middle route of the South to North Water Transfer Project in China. In addition, we investigated the main management measures affecting these processes during the project. The results showed that the pseudo second-order model adequately describes the sorption/desorption of phenanthrene on the soil BC in the WLFZ. Water level fluctuation may indirectly influenced BC sorption/desorption by altering water chemistry. Water level residence time had negative effects on BC sorption in short-term experiments (days to months), but the impact gradually diminished with increased residence time. The results suggested that long-term field monitoring of water chemistry is urgent. During the initial period of water transfer, delaying the water supplies as drinking water source or directly irrigating crops could mitigate the adverse impacts. Future research should focus on the water-soluble products of BC degradation. The findings of this study should be useful in improving sustainable management of water resources for water transfer projects.

RESUMEN

Lithium-rich transition metal oxides, Li1+xTM1-xO2 (TM, transition metal), have attracted much attention as potential candidate cathode materials for next generation lithium ion batteries because their high theoretical capacity. Here we present the synthesis of Li[Li0.2Ni0.2Mn0.6]O2 using a facile one-pot resorcinol-formaldehyde method. Structural characterization indicates that the material adopts a hierarchical porous morphology consisting of uniformly distributed small pores and disordered large pore structures. The material exhibits excellent electrochemical cycling stability and a good retention of capacity at high rates. The material has been shown to be both advantageous in terms of gravimetric and volumetric capacities over state of the art commercial cathode materials.

RESUMEN

Conventional intercalation cathodes for lithium batteries store charge in redox reactions associated with the transition metal cations, e.g., Mn(3+/4+) in LiMn2O4, and this limits the energy storage of Li-ion batteries. Compounds such as Li[Li0.2Ni0.2Mn0.6]O2 exhibit a capacity to store charge in excess of the transition metal redox reactions. The additional capacity occurs at and above 4.5 V versus Li(+)/Li. The capacity at 4.5 V is dominated by oxidation of the O(2-) anions accounting for ∼0.43 e(-)/formula unit, with an additional 0.06 e(-)/formula unit being associated with O loss from the lattice. In contrast, the capacity above 4.5 V is mainly O loss, ∼0.08 e(-)/formula. The O redox reaction involves the formation of localized hole states on O during charge, which are located on O coordinated by (Mn(4+)/Li(+)). The results have been obtained by combining operando electrochemical mass spec on (18)O labeled Li[Li0.2Ni0.2Mn0.6]O2 with XANES, soft X-ray spectroscopy, resonant inelastic X-ray spectroscopy, and Raman spectroscopy. Finally the general features of O redox are described with discussion about the role of comparatively ionic (less covalent) 3d metal-oxygen interaction on anion redox in lithium rich cathode materials.

RESUMEN

Chlorogenic acid (CGA), the ester formed between caffeic acid and l-quinic acid, is a widespread phenolic compound. It is part of the human diet, found in foods such as coffee, apples, pears, etc. CGA is also was widely used in cosmetics, but the effects of CGA on melanogenesis are unknown. In this study, we analyzed the effects of CGA on cell proliferation, melanin content and tyrosinase of B16 murine melanoma cells. Additionally, the enzymatic reactions of CGA in B16 melanoma cells lytic solution were detected by UV spectrophotometry. Results showed CGA at 30 and 60 µM significantly suppresses cell proliferation. 8-MOP at 100 µM significantly promotes cell proliferation, but CGA can counter this. Incubated for 24 h, CGA (500 µM) improves melanogenesis while suppressing tyrosinase activity in B16 melanoma cells or 8-methoxypsoralen (8-MOP) co-incubated B16 melanoma cells. After 12 h, B16 melanoma cell treatment with CGA leads to an increase in melanin accumulation, however, after 48 h there is a decrease in melanin production which correlates broadly with a decrease in tyrosinase activity. CGA incubated with lytic solution 24 h turned brown at 37 °C. The formation of new products (with a maximum absorption at 295 nm) is associated with reduction of CGA (maximum absorption at 326 nm). Therefore, CGA has its two sidesroles in melanogenesis of B16 melanoma cells. CGA is a likely a substrate of melanin, but the metabolic product(s) of CGA may suppress melanogenesis in B16 melanoma cells by inhibiting tyrosinase activity.

RESUMEN

OBJECTIVE: To explore the values of magnetic resonance spectrum (MRS) in early diagnosis, quantization analysis and staging of hepatic fibrosis. METHODS: A rat model of hepatic fibrosis was established by the method of carbon tetra carbon (CCl4). A total of 47 SD rats were divided into model (n = 40) and control (n = 7) groups. 1H-MRS was performed. The model rats of hepatic fibrosis were grouped according to their pathological stages. The ratio of peak height and peak area of metabolites and lipid (Cho/Lip, Glx/Lip, Lac/Lip and Cr/Lip) were calculated and compared respectively. RESULTS: The ratios of peak height of metabolites and lipid were as follows: ratio of Cho and Lip: significant differences existed between control and grades 3 and 4 model groups (P < 0.05); ratio of Glx and Lip: significant differences existed between control and grades 2, 3 and 4 model groups (P < 0.05); ratio of Cr and Lip: significant differences existed between control and grade 3 model groups (P < 0.05). The peak area ratio of main metabolites and lipid of liver were as follows: ratio of Cho and Lip: significant differences existed between control and grade 4 model groups (P < 0.05); ratio of Glx and Lip: significant differences existed between control and other groups (P < 0.05); ratio of Cr and Lip: significant differences existed between control and grade 4 model groups (P < 0.05); ratio of Lac and Lip: no significant differences existed between these groups (P > 0.05). CONCLUSION: The ratios of peak height and peak area of Cho/Lip, Glx/Lip and Cr/Lip are important for the staging of hepatic fibrosis.

RESUMEN

OBJECTIVE: To explore the recurring patterns of migration and distribution of transplanted bone marrow stromal cells (BMSCs) in rat model with hepatic fibrosis and the feasibility of magnetic resonance (MR) tracing. METHODS: BMSCs labeled with 5-bromodeoxyuridine (Brdu) and super para-magnetic iron oxide (SPIO) were transplanted into rat model with hepatic fibrosis via portal vein. MR scan was performed at Hour 2, Day 3, Day 7 and Week 2 post-transplantation to analyze the hepatic features of MR signal intensity and pathohistology of BMSCs. RESULTS: Multiple hypo-intense lesions appeared in hepatic hilar region at Hour 2 and became smaller with the elapsing time. Hemosiderin and Brdu immunohistochemical stains showed that positive cells were found in portal vein of hepatic porta at Hour 2, small branches of portal vein, sinus hepaticus and around central veins of hepatic lobules at Day 3 and liver parenchyma (esp. in area of lesion) at Day 7 and Week 2. Some of transplanted BMSCs were tightly connected with liver cell to form liver cell cord. The signal intensity changes of MRI corresponded to histological findings at different timepoints. CONCLUSION: The transplanted BMSCs are gradually scattered in whole liver (esp. in lesion area) so that it may help to repair hepatic lesions. And the recurring patterns of MR signal intensity changes reflected the condition of distribution, immigration and differentiation of transplanted cells.

RESUMEN

Salt stress is one of the unfavorable environmental factors to affect plants. Salinity represses root growth, resulting in reduced biomass of agricultural plants. Little is known about how plants maintain root growth to counteract salt stress. The AP2-domain transcription factors PLETHORA1/2 (PLT1/2) act as master regulators in root meristem maintenance in Arabidopsis. In this study, we report that the salt overly sensitive (SOS) pathway component SOS2 regulates PLT1/2 at the post-transcriptional level. Salt-activated SOS2 interacts and phosphorylates PLT1/2 through their conserved C-terminal motifs to stabilize PLT1/2, critical for root apical meristem maintenance under salt stress. The phospho-mimetic version of PLT1/2 restored meristem and primary root length reduction of sos2-2 and plt1-4 plt2-2 mutants on salt treatment. Moreover, SOS2-mediated PLT1/2 phosphorylation improves root growth recovery after salt stress alleviation. We identify a SOS2-PLT1/2 core protein module that is required for protecting primary root growth and meristem maintenance from salt stress.

RESUMEN

With the increased construction of dam reservoirs and the demand for water security, terrestrial dissolved organic matter (DOM) has received attention because of its role in regulating water quality, ecological functions, and the fate and transport of pollutants in dam reservoirs. This study investigated the transformations of soil DOM and vegetation DOM of dam reservoirs following photodegradation and biodegradation before conservative mixing, as well as the resultant effects on phenanthrene binding. Based on the results, terrestrial DOM could undergo transformation via photodegradation and biodegradation before conservative mixing in dam reservoirs. Although both processes resulted in substantial decreases in DOM concentrations, the changes in chromophoric DOM and fluorescent DOM depended on the original DOM sources. Furthermore, the photodegradation of terrestrial DOM resulted in more pronounced photobleaching than photomineralization. In addition, photodegradation of terrestrial DOM resulted in the generation of DOM-derived by-products with low molecular weight and low aromaticity, whereas the biodegradation of terrestrial DOM resulted in DOM-derived by-products with low molecular weight and high aromaticity. Subsequently, the photodegradation and biodegradation of terrestrial DOM substantially enhanced the binding affinity of phenanthrene. Soil DOM is prior to vegetation DOM when predicting the ecological risk of HOCs. These results indicate that the terrestrial DOM in dam reservoirs should be reconsidered before conservative mixing. Further studies on the coupling effects of both biogeochemical processes, as well as on the relative contributions of soil DOM and vegetation DOM after transformation to the aquatic DOM in dam reservoirs, are required. This study provides information on the environmental effects of dam construction from the perspective of biogeochemical processes.

RESUMEN

Multiple pesticides are heavily applied in crops grown in China's tropics due to the prevalence of diseases and pests, thus posing potential risks to nontarget organisms (e.g., honeybees, lacewings, ladybugs, and humans). However, there is little information on this topic. This study is the first assessment of the occurrence, driving factors, and ecological/human health risks of 32 current-use pesticides (CUPs) in 10 frequently-planted crops collected from practicing rice-vegetable rotation systems in Hainan, China. Of the 132 whole crop samples, 44 (33.3 %) residues from ≥8 pesticides were detected in 9.09 % of crop samples with concentrations ≥0.5 mg kg-1. Six pesticide residues, namely carbendazim, pyraclostrobin, acetamiprid, thiophanate methyl, phoxim, and imidacloprid, were detected in 72.7 % of samples, with concentrations ranging from 0.0021 to 13.5 (median = 0.032) mg kg-1. Among them, carbendazim, pyraclostrobin, and acetamiprid were the most common, contributions from 10.2 to 25.5 % and a detection frequency ranging from 25.6 to 56.1 %. The order of total concentration of 32 CUPs (∑32 CUP) concentrations during the year was January > May > November > August and vegetables > rice, being highly related with pesticides usage pattern, crop type, plant accumulation/dissipation and plant lipid contents. The ecological risk quotients (RQs) to four beneficial terrestrial organisms showed that 9.6-39.1 % of samples posed a potential medium or high ecological risk, with 13.6-65.9 % of samples at ∑RQ > 1 being highly affected by the residues of neonicotinoids and emamectin benzoate. Emamectin benzoate (8.9 %) and acetamiprid (5.6 %) exceeded the individual Maximum Residue Levels based on Chinese legislation (GB2763-2021). Moreover, cumulative dietary exposure presented a higher risk to humans in 11.0 and 22.0 % of the cases for acute and chronic, mainly originating from the higher concentration contributors of systemic pesticides in edible crops. Therefore, the regulation and monitoring of CUP residues is imperative for rice-vegetable rotation systems in tropical China to avoid negative effects on nontarget organisms.

RESUMEN

Neuropathic pain since early diabetes swamps patients' lives, and diabetes mellitus has become an increasingly worldwide epidemic. No agent, so far, can terminate the ongoing diabetes. Therefore, strategies that delay the process and the further complications are preferred, such as diabetic neuropathic pain (DNP). Dysfunction of ion channels is generally accepted as the central mechanism of diabetic associated neuropathy, of which hyperpolarization-activated cyclic nucleotide-gated 2 (HCN2) ion channel has been verified the involvement of neuropathic pain in dorsal root ganglion (DRG) neurons. Riluzole is a benzothiazole compound with neuroprotective properties on intervention to various ion channels, including hyperpolarization-activated voltage-dependent channels. To investigate the effect of riluzole within lumbar (L3-5) DRG neurons from DNP models, streptozocin (STZ, 70 mg/kg) injection was recruited subcutaneously followed by paw withdrawal mechanical threshold (PWMT) and paw withdrawal thermal latency (PWTL), which both show significant reduction, whilst relieved by riluzole (4 mg/kg/d) administration, which was performed once daily for 7 consecutive days for 14 days. HCN2 expression was also decreased in line with alleviated behavioral tests. Our results indicate riluzole as the alleviator to STZ-induced DNP with involvement of downregulated HCN2 in lumbar DRG by continual systemic administration in rats.

RESUMEN

Stomatal closure-associated actin-binding protein 1 (SCAB1) regulates stomatal closure by mediating actin filament reorganization in Arabidopsis thaliana. Our previous study showed that phosphatidylinositol 3-phosphate (PI3P) binds to SCAB1 and inhibits its oligomerization, thereby inhibiting its activity on F-actin in guard cells during stomatal closure. In this study, we show that another phospholipid, phosphatidic acid (PA), also binds to SCAB1 and inhibits its actin-bundling activity but not its actin-binding activity. F-actin bundling was promoted in vivo by treating Col-0 seedlings with n-butanol, a suppressor of PA production, but this effect was absent in the scab1 mutant. These results indicate that the signaling molecule PA is involved in the modulation of SCAB1 activity in F-actin reorganization.

RESUMEN

Chronic myeloid leukemia (CML) is a malignant disease of the hematopoietic system with crucial pathogenic protein named BCR-ABL, which endangers the life of patients severely. As a milestone of targeted drug, Imatinib has achieved great success in the treatment of CML. Nevertheless, inevitable drug resistance of Imatinib has occurred frequently in clinical due to the several mutations in the BCR-ABL kinase. Subsequently, the second-generation of tyrosine kinase inhibitors (TKIs) against BCR-ABL was developed to address the mutants of Imatinib resistance, except T315I. To date, the third-generation of TKIs targeting T315I has been developed for improving the selectivity and safety. Notably, the first allosteric inhibitor has been in market which could overcome the mutations in ATP binding site effectively. Meanwhile, some advanced technology, such as proteolysis-targeting chimeras (PROTAC) based on different E3 ligand, are highly expected to overcome the drug resistance by selectively degrading the targeted proteins. In this review, we summarized the current research progress of inhibitors and degraders targeting BCR-ABL for the treatment of CML.
