Clinical efficacy of endovascular revascularization combined with vacuum-assisted closure for the treatment of diabetic foot.

BACKGROUND: The diabetic foot is a common cause of disability and death, and comorbid foot infections usually lead to prolonged hospitalization, high healthcare costs, and a significant increase in amputation rates. And most diabetic foot trauma is complicated by lower extremity arteriopathy, which becomes an independent risk factor for major amputation in diabetic foot patients. AIM: To establish the efficacy and safety of endovascular revascularization (ER) combined with vacuum-assisted closure (VAC) for the treatment of diabetic foot. METHODS: Clinical data were collected from 40 patients with diabetic foot admitted to the Second Affiliated Hospital of Soochow University from April 2018 to April 2022. Diabetic foot lesions were graded according to Wagner's classification, and blood flow to the lower extremity was evaluated using the ankle-brachial index test and computerized tomography angiography of the lower extremity arteries. Continuous subcutaneous insulin infusion pumps were used to achieve glycemic control. Lower limb revascularization was facilitated by percutaneous tran-sluminal balloon angioplasty (BA) or stenting. Wounds were cleaned by nibbling debridement. Wound granulation tissue growth was induced by VAC, and wound repair was performed by skin grafting or skin flap transplantation. RESULTS: Of the 35 cases treated with lower limb revascularization, 34 were successful with a revascularization success rate of 97%. Of these, 6 cases underwent stenting after BA of the superficial femoral artery, and 1 received popliteal artery stent implantation. In the 25 cases treated with infrapopliteal artery revascularization, 39 arteries were reconstructed, 7 of which were treated by drug-coated BA and the remaining 32 with plain old BA. VAC was performed in 32 wounds. Twenty-four cases of skin grafting and 2 cases of skin flap transplantation were performed. Two patients underwent major amputations, whereas 17 had minor amputations, accounting for a success limb salvage rate of 95%. CONCLUSION: ER in combination with VAC is a safe and effective treatment for diabetic foot that can significantly improve limb salvage rates. The use of VAC after ER simplifies and facilitates wound repair.

Giant Enhancement of Hole Mobility for 4H-Silicon Carbide through Suppressing Interband Electron-Phonon Scattering.

4H-silicon carbide (4H-SiC) possesses a high Baliga figure of merit, making it a promising material for power electronics. However, its applications are limited by low hole mobility. Herein, we found that the hole mobility of 4H-SiC is mainly limited by the strong interband electron-phonon scattering using mode-level first-principles calculations. Our research indicates that applying compressive strain can reverse the sign of crystal-field splitting and change the ordering of electron bands close to the valence band maximum. Therefore, the interband electron-phonon scattering is severely suppressed and the electron group velocity is significantly increased. The out-of-plane hole mobility of 4H-SiC can be greatly enhanced by ∼200% with 2% uniaxial compressive strain applied. This work provides new insights into the electron transport mechanisms in semiconductors and suggests a strategy to improve hole mobility that could be applied to other semiconductors with hexagonal crystalline geometries.

Generation of a human induced pluripotent stem cell (iPSC, DVSi001-A) with a heterozygous mutation in KRAS (A209T).

Human varicose veins are commonly claimed to be responsible for lower limb symptoms. Mutation in KRAS gene has been implicated in various diseases, including cancers and vascular diseases. While little known about the novel mutation in KRAS gene and its contribution to the development of varicose veins. Here, we have generated human induced pluripotent stem cell (iPSC) line, which harboured a novel mutation in KRAS (c.209A>T) gene. This cell line provided a novel tool for understanding the mechanism of KRAS mutation in the pathogenesis of varicose veins.

Chromosome-level genome assemblies of vulnerable male and female elongate loach (Leptobotia elongata).

Endemic to the upper and middle reaches of the Yangtze River in China, elongate loach (Leptobotia elongata) has become a vulnerable species mainly due to overfishing and habitat destruction. Thus far, no genome data of this species are reported. As a result, lacking of such genomic information has restricted practical conservation and utilization of this economic fish. Here, we constructed chromosome-level genome assemblies for both male and female elongate loach by integration of MGI, PacBio HiFi and Hi-C sequencing technologies. Two primary genome assemblies (586-Mb and 589-Mb) were obtained for female and male fishes, respectively. Indeed, 98.22% and 98.61% of the contig sequences were anchored onto 25 chromosomes, with identification of 26.22% and 25.92% repeat contents in both assembled genomes. Meanwhile, a total of 25,215 and 25,253 protein-coding genes were annotated, of which 97.41% and 98.8% could be predicted with functions. Taken together, our genome data presented here provide a valuable genomic resource for in-depth evolutionary and functional research, as well as molecular breeding and conservation of this economic fish species.

Discrete unified gas kinetic scheme for the solution of electron Boltzmann transport equation with Callaway approximation.

Electrons are the carriers of heat and electricity in materials and exhibit abundant transport phenomena such as ballistic, diffusive, and hydrodynamic behaviors in systems with different sizes. The electron Boltzmann transport equation (eBTE) is a reliable model for describing electron transport, but it is a challenging problem to efficiently obtain the numerical solutions of the eBTE within one unified scheme involving ballistic, hydrodynamics, and/or diffusive regimes. In this work, a discrete unified gas kinetic scheme (DUGKS) in the finite-volume framework is developed based on the eBTE with the Callaway relaxation model for electron transport. By reconstructing the distribution function at the cell interface, the processes of electron drift and scattering are coupled together within a single time step. Numerical tests demonstrate that the DUGKS can be adaptively applied to multiscale electron transport, across different regimes.

Infrared Lightwave Memory-Resident Manipulation and Absorption Based on Spatial Electromagnetic Wavefield Excitation and Resonant Accumulation by GdFe-Based Nanocavity-Shaped Metasurfaces.

An arrayed nanocavity-shaped architecture consisting of the key GdFe film and SiO2 dielectric layer is constructed, leading to an efficient infrared (IR) absorption metasurface. By carefully designing and optimizing the film system configuration and the surface layout with needed geometry, a desirable IR radiation absorption according to the spatial magnetic plasmon modes is realized experimentally. The simulations and measurements demonstrate that GdFe-based nanocavity-shaped metasurfaces can be used to achieve an average IR absorption of ~81% in a wide wavelength range of 3-14 µm. A type of the patterned GdFe-based nanocavity-shaped metasurface is further proposed for exciting relatively strong spatial electromagnetic wavefields confined by a patterned nanocavity array based on the joint action of the surface oscillated net charges over the charged metallic films and the surface conductive currents including equivalent eddy currents surrounding the layered GdFe and SiO2 materials. Intensive IR absorption can be attributed to a spatial electromagnetic wavefield excitation and resonant accumulation or memory residence according to the GdFe-based nanocavity-shaped array formed. Our research provides a potential clue for efficiently responding and manipulating and storing incident IR radiation mainly based on the excitation and resonant accumulation of spatial magnetic plasmons.

Effect of chondroitin sulfate modified polyethyleneimine on mediating oligodeoxynucleotide YW002 in the treatment of periodontitis.

PURPOSE: In a previous study, we found that oligodeoxynucleotide (ODN) YW002 could induce the activity of alkaline phosphatase of early osteogenesis in human periodontal membrane stem cells, and downregulate the synthesis of nitric oxide in RAW 264.7 cells in the late inflammatory stage, laying the experimental foundation for the subsequent application of ODN YW002 in periodontitis. However, free ODN does not easily adhere to cells and is easily hydrolyzed by nuclease, so the immune effect of ODN is greatly reduced. Therefore, the nano-drug delivery system provides a method for efficient delivery and uptake of ODN. METHODS: We synthesized a polyethyleneimine (PEI) modified chondroitin sulfate (CS) derivative (PEI-CS) via Michael addition to deliver ODN YW002. We aimed to evaluate whether PEI-CS could effectively deliver YW002 to RAW 264.7 cells and if it can regulate inflammation in vitro. PEI-CS/YW002 nanocomplexes were locally injected into a mouse periodontitis model, and the therapeutic effects were evaluated by microcomputed tomography (micro-CT) and hematoxylin-eosin (H&E) staining. RESULTS: The results indicated that PEI-CS had good biocompatibility and could form a stable nanocomplex with YW002 at a mass ratio of 4 : 1. Moreover, PEI-CS could deliver YW002 into RAW 246.7 cells and markedly decreased the expression levels of interleukin (IL)-1ß, IL-6 and tumor necrosis factor (TNF)-α. Histological evaluation and micro-CT scanning showed that PEI-CS/YW002 nanocomplexes effectively inhibited periodontitis and reduced alveolar bone resorption in mice. CONCLUSION: Our study has underscored the potential of PEI-CS/YW002 nanocomplexes as promising agents for the prevention and treatment of periodontitis due to their potent anti-inflammatory effects.

This article explores the asymmetric Michael addition reaction of 2-hydroxy-1,4-naphthoquinone and indole-3-ones catalyzed by cinchona alkaloids. This strategy utilizes 2-hydroxy-1,4-naphthoquinone and easily prepared indole-3-one as substrates, resulting in the synthesis of 23 unprecedented indolin-3-ones bearing a 1,4-naphthoquinone unit at the C2 position of indole under simple and mild reaction conditions, with up to 88% yield, 98% ee, and >20:1 dr.

Magnetic Switching of Second-Harmonic Generation from Single Cerium-Based Coordination Polymer Microcrystals.

Conventional access and modulation of second-harmonic generation (SHG) require precise control of crystal orientation, which faces great mechanical challenges in the case of micro/nanocrystals. Here, we demonstrate the magnetic-field-tunable SHG performance of lanthanide coordination polymer (Ce-BTC CP) microcrystals through field-aligned orientations. The coordination of Ce ions and organic ligands constructs a noncentrosymmetric structure, which not only contributes to a favorable powder SHG efficiency 3.2 times larger than that of the benchmark KH2PO4 (KDP) but also endows the microcrystals with strong magnetic anisotropy. The SHG efficiency (∼0 to 10 × KDP) depends on the orientation of the crystallographic c-axis, whereas magnetic anisotropy always aligns the c-axis with the magnetic field at a specific angle. Accordingly, the SHG can be magnetically switched by field-induced alignments. The adsorption of dyes by Ce-BTC CPs further facilitates the magnetic switching of multicolor fluorescence that can be excited by the SHG. Our work provides a new pathway for achieving SHG modulation at the microscopic level.

The total xanthones extracted from Gentianella acuta alleviates HFpEF by activating the IRE1α/Xbp1s pathway.

Heart failure with preserved ejection fraction (HFpEF) is a clinical syndrome characterized by pulmonary and systemic congestion resulting from left ventricular diastolic dysfunction and increased filling pressure. Currently, however, there is no evidence on effective pharmacotherapy for HFpEF. In this study, we aimed to investigate the therapeutic effect of total xanthones extracted from Gentianella acuta (TXG) on HFpEF by establishing an high-fat diet (HFD) + L-NAME-induced mouse model. Echocardiography was employed to assess the impact of TXG on the cardiac function in HFpEF mice. Haematoxylin and eosin staining, wheat germ agglutinin staining, and Masson's trichrome staining were utilized to observe the histopathological changes following TXG treatment. The results demonstrated that TXG alleviated HFpEF by reducing the expressions of genes associated with myocardial hypertrophy, fibrosis and apoptosis. Furthermore, TXG improved cardiomyocyte apoptosis by inhibiting the expression of apoptosis-related proteins. Mechanistic investigations revealed that TXG could activate the inositol-requiring enzyme 1α (IRE1α)/X-box-binding protein 1 (Xbp1s) signalling pathway, but the knockdown of IRE1α using the IRE1α inhibitor STF083010 or siRNA-IRE1α impaired the ability of TXG to ameliorate cardiac remodelling in HFpEF models. In conclusion, TXG alleviates myocardial hypertrophy, fibrosis and apoptosis through the activation of the IRE1α/Xbp1s signalling pathway, suggesting its potential beneficial effects on HFpEF patients.

Mitochondria-Targeted Natural Antioxidant Nanosystem for Diabetic Vascular Calcification Therapy.

The development of nanotherapy targeting mitochondria to alleviate oxidative stress is a critical therapeutic strategy for vascular calcification (VC) in diabetes. In this study, we engineered mitochondria-targeted nanodrugs (T4O@TPP/PEG-PLGA) utilizing terpinen-4-ol (T4O) as a natural antioxidant and mitochondrial protector, PEG-PLGA as the nanocarrier, and triphenylphosphine (TPP) as the mitochondrial targeting ligand. In vitro assessments demonstrated enhanced cellular uptake of T4O@TPP/PEG-PLGA, with effective mitochondrial targeting. This nanodrug successfully reduced oxidative stress induced by high glucose levels in vascular smooth muscle cells. In vivo studies showed prolonged retention of the nanomaterials in the thoracic aorta for up to 24 h. Importantly, experiments in diabetic VC models underscored the potent antioxidant properties of T4O@TPP/PEG-PLGA, as evidenced by its ability to mitigate VC and restore mitochondrial morphology. These results suggest that these nanodrugs could be a promising strategy for managing diabetic VC.

Magneto-electrochemical method for chiral recognition of amino acid enantiomers.

Chiral recognition of enantiomers with identical mirror-symmetric molecular structures is important for the analysis of biomolecules, and it conventionally relies on stereoselective interactions in chiral chemical environments. Here, we develop a magneto-electrochemical method for the enhanced detection of chiral amino acids (AAs), that combines the advantages of the high sensitivity of electrochemiluminescent (ECL) biosensors and chirality-induced effects under a magnetic field. The ECL difference between L- and D-enantiomers can be amplified over 35-fold under a field of 3.5 kG, and the chiral discrimination can be achieved in dilute AA solutions down to the nM level. The field-dependent ECL and chronocoulometry measurements suggest that chiral AAs can lock the spins on their radicals and thus enlarge the ECL change under applied magnetic fields (magneto-ECL, MECL), which explains the field-enhanced chiral discrimination of AA enantiomers. Finally, a detailed protocol is demonstrated for the identification of unknown AA solutions, in which the species, chirality and concentration of AAs can be determined simultaneously from the 2D plots of the ECL and MECL results. This work benefits the development of field-assisted detection methods and represents a promising and universal strategy for the comprehensive analysis of chiral biomolecules.

The effects of postoperative targeted immunotherapy on peripheral blood cytokines and immune cell profile in lung cancer patients.

Objective: Cytokines and cell subsets are important components of the tumor microenvironment. Previous research has revealed that there are differences in cytokines and cell subsets in the peripheral blood of lung cancer (LCA) patients before and after eradication. The purpose of this study is to explore the monitoring value of cytokines and cellular subpopulations as biomarkers in post-immunotherapy monitoring of patients with LCA after surgery. Methods: We conducted a case-control study using double-antibody sandwich magnetic microsphere flow cytometry with immunofluorescence technology and fluorescent monoclonal antibody multiparameter flow cytometry to detect differences in peripheral blood cytokines and cell subsets between LCA patients after immunotherapy and healthy controls. Results: Our research results show that there are differences in the levels of IL-4, IL-6, IL-10, IL-17, IFN-γ, TNF-α in the peripheral blood of LCA patients (n=70) after immunotherapy compared to the healthy controls (n=55) (P<0.05), and there are differences in 10 cell subgroups including DP T Cells, AT cells, and NLR in the peripheral blood compared to the healthy controls (n=35) (P<0.05). Further analysis revealed significant differences in the detection data of IL-6, IL-10, IFN-γ, CD56dim NK cells, Total B cells, Total NE cells, CD15+M cells, and NLR between LCA deceased patients (n=25) and LCA surviving patients (n=27) during the same period (P<0.05). The continuous monitoring of cytokines and cell subsets is far more valuable than a single-time test, as abnormal fluctuations in the data of cytokines and cell subsets are often associated with poor prognosis. In addition, IL-6 and NLR showed the strongest discriminative ability between postoperative immunotherapy-treated LCA patients and healthy controls, with AUC values of 0.840 and 0.822, respectively. There was a significant association between IFN-γ and distant metastasis in LCA (P<0.05), as well as between CD56dim NK cells and lymph node infiltration (P<0.05). Conclusion: This research results support peripheral blood cytokines and cell subsets as biomarkers for monitoring the postoperative immune status and predicting the prognosis of LCA patients after immunotherapy. The continuous monitoring of cytokines and cell subsets is far more valuable than a single-time detection.

Polymer Free Volume-Controlled Molecular Clock and Emitter for Multicolored Transient Data Display in Advanced Photonic Cryptography.

The booming demand on data security has aroused great interest for developing smart materials with temporal display feature and dynamic multicolor fluorescence. However, it remains challenging to implement both features on most responsive molecules. Herein, we construct a polymer free volume-controlled "molecular clock and emitter" via covalently embedding a multi-stimuli responsive molecular switch (i.e., spiropyran) into a polymer network (i.e., poly(pentafluorophenyl acrylate)) with programmable crosslink density and free volume. By the aminolysis of pentafluorophenyl ester with different amount of diamine crosslinkers, pPFPA-co-SP networks with controllable crosslink densities are generated, which have different confinement effects on the rate constant of SP/MC isomerization, thus leading to time-dependent photochromism. In addition, PTF1, a fluorescent probe that is sensitive to polymer rigidity, is introduced to further endow pPFPA-co-SP system with phototunable dynamic full-color emission. Therefore, relying on their synergistical responses to the rigidity of the polymer network, we have successfully developed a versatile molecular clock and emitter via an "one stone two birds" manner, which shows time-dependent data display along with dynamic multicolor fluorescence switching, providing great potential for advanced encryption and anticounterfeiting with a high security level.

Stepwise Charge/Energy Transfer in MR-TADF Molecule-Doped Exciplex for Ultralong Persistent Luminescence Activated with Visible Light.

Organic long-persistent luminescence (OLPL), which relies on energy storage for delayed light emission by the charge separation state, has attracted intense attention in various optical applications. However, charge separation (CS) is efficient only under ultraviolet excitation in most OLPL systems because it requires a driving force from the large energy difference between the local excited (LE) and charge transfer (CT) states. In this study, a multiresonance thermally activated delayed fluorescence (MR-TADF) molecule is incorporated into an exciplex system to achieve efficient OLPL in a composite material activated by visible light via a stepwise charge/energy transfer process. The enhanced absorption of the composite material facilitated a tenfold increase in the duration of the OLPL, which can last for several hours under visible light excitation. The excited state of the MR-TADF molecule tends to charge transfer to the acceptor, followed by energy transfer to the exciplex, which benefits from the small difference between the LE and CT states owing to the inherent CS characteristics of the opposing resonance effect. Afterglow displays of these composite materials are fabricated to demonstrate their considerable potential in encryption patterns and emergency lights, which take advantage of their excellent processability, visible light activation, and tunable luminescence properties.

Development of a Fluorescent Assay and Imidazole-Containing Inhibitors by Targeting SARS-CoV-2 Nsp13 Helicase.

Nsp13, a non-structural protein belonging to the coronavirus family 1B (SF1B) helicase, exhibits 5'-3' polarity-dependent DNA or RNA unwinding using NTPs. Crucially, it serves as a key component of the viral replication-transcription complex (RTC), playing an indispensable role in the coronavirus life cycle and thereby making it a promising target for broad-spectrum antiviral therapies. The imidazole scaffold, known for its antiviral potential, has been proposed as a potential scaffold. In this study, a fluorescence-based assay was designed by labeling dsDNA substrates with a commercial fluorophore and monitoring signal changes upon Nsp13 helicase activity. Optimization and high-throughput screening validated the feasibility of this approach. In accordance with the structural characteristics of ADP, we employed a structural-based design strategy to synthesize three classes of imidazole-based compounds through substitution reaction. Through in vitro activity research, pharmacokinetic parameter analysis, and molecular docking simulation, we identified compounds A16 (IC50 = 1.25 µM) and B3 (IC50 = 0.98 µM) as potential lead antiviral compounds for further targeted drug research.

Establishment and Verification of an Artificial Intelligence Prediction Model for Children With Sepsis.

BACKGROUND: Early identification of high-risk groups of children with sepsis is beneficial to reduce sepsis mortality. This article used artificial intelligence (AI) technology to predict the risk of death effectively and quickly in children with sepsis in the pediatric intensive care unit (PICU). STUDY DESIGN: This retrospective observational study was conducted in the PICUs of the First Affiliated Hospital of Sun Yat-sen University from December 2016 to June 2019 and Shenzhen Children's Hospital from January 2019 to July 2020. The children were divided into a death group and a survival group. Different machine language (ML) models were used to predict the risk of death in children with sepsis. RESULTS: A total of 671 children with sepsis were enrolled. The accuracy (ACC) of the artificial neural network model was better than that of support vector machine, logical regression analysis, Bayesian, K nearest neighbor method and decision tree models, with a training set ACC of 0.99 and a test set ACC of 0.96. CONCLUSIONS: The AI model can be used to predict the risk of death due to sepsis in children in the PICU, and the artificial neural network model is better than other AI models in predicting mortality risk.

Determination of mine fault activation degree and the division of tectonic stress hazard zones.

This article conducts a comprehensive study on the activation characteristics of faults in the mine and analyzes the distribution patterns of the original rock stress field. Through quantitative research and analysis, we determine the partitioning characteristics of tectonic stress in the mine field under the dual effects of fault activation and original rock stress. The study also reveals the significant impact of different fault activation characteristics and different tectonic stress partitions on the stability of roadway surrounding rock. Using the Mohr-Coulomb strength criterion as a foundation, we investigate the mechanisms of fault activation and establish a mathematical model for fuzzy comprehensive evaluation. This model enables us to determine the strength level of fault activation in coal seam 9 of the Limin coal mine and construct a geological structure model. It has realized the transformation of fault activation degree from qualitative evaluation to quantitative evaluation. The stress state analysis software is used to draw the division of tectonic stress dangerous areas under the synergistic effect of fault activation and original rock stress. We then analyze the impact on the stability of roadway surrounding rock in these different hazardous areas. Utilizing the fuzzy comprehensive evaluation method, we take into account the impact of faults on the distribution characteristics of stress fields and the stability of roadway surrounding rock. This approach enables us to more accurately and comprehensively determine the hazardous areas of tectonic stress in the mine field under the dual effects of faults and original rock stress.

Construction of functionalized In-based metal organic framework/BiOCl1-xIx Z-scheme heterojunction for efficient photocatalytic degradation of tetracycline: Performance and mechanism.

The environmental implications of antibiotics have drawn widespread attention. Numerous monomer-based bismuth oxide halide catalysts have been extensively studied to remove tetracycline (TC) from aquatic environments. Integrating bismuth oxide halide composites with In-based metal organic framework (NH2-MIL-68(In)) might potentially serve as a novel strategy. By meticulously adjusting Cl and I within the composite bismuth halide oxide (B-x), a suite of purpose built heterojunctions (NMB-x) were synthesized, which were engineered to facilitate the efficient photodegradation of TC in simulated and actual aquatic environments. The incorporation of Z-scheme heterojunctions yielded a significant enhancement in photocatalytic responsiveness and charge carrier separation. Notably, NMB-0.3 demonstrated remarkable TC removal efficiency of 88.52 ± 3.05%, which is 3.74 times of B-0.3 within 90 min. The apparent quantum yield was also increased from 8.97% (B-0.3) to 19.68% (NMB-0.3). The removal of TC from natural water bodies was also assessed. Moreover, the photocatalyst concentration, assessed using response surface method, was found to show influential factors on TC removal. In addition, density functional theory (DFT) simulations were employed to identify vulnerable sites within TC. Intermediates and pathways in the photodegradation of TC have also been inferred. Furthermore, a comprehensive environmental toxicity assessment of representative intermediates demonstrated that these intermediates exhibited significantly reduced environmental toxicity compared to TC. This study provides a new approach to the design strategy of efficient and environmentally friendly MOF-based photocatalysts.

Regulating Spin Density using TEMPOL Molecules for Enhanced CO2-to-Ethylene Conversion by HKUST-1 Framework Derived Electrocatalysts.

The selectivity of multicarbon products in the CO2 reduction reaction (CO2RR) depends on the spin alignment of neighboring active sites, which requires a spin catalyst that facilitates electron transfer with antiparallel spins for enhanced C-C coupling. Here, we design a radical-contained spin catalyst (TEMPOL@HKUST-1) to enhance CO2-to-ethylene conversion, in which spin-disordered (SDO) and spin-ordered (SO) phases co-exist to construct an asymmetric spin configuration of neighboring active sites. The replacement of axially coordinated H2O molecules with TEMPOL radicals introduces spin-spin interactions among the Cu(II) centers to form localized SO phases within the original H2O-mediated SDO phases. Therefore, TEMPOL@HKUST-1 derived catalyst exhibited an approximately two-fold enhancement in ethylene selectivity during the CO2RR at -1.8 V versus Ag/AgCl compared to pristine HKUST-1. In situ ATR-SEIRAS spectra indicate that the spin configuration at asymmetric SO/SDO sites significantly reduces the kinetic barrier for *CO intermediate dimerization toward the ethylene product. The performance of the spin catalyst is further improved by spin alignment under a magnetic field, resulting in a maximum ethylene selectivity of more than 50 %. The exploration of the spin-polarized kinetics of the CO2RR provides a promising path for the development of novel spin electrocatalysts with superior performance.
