Abstract
Developing an efficient photocatalytic system for hydrogen peroxide (H2O2) activation in Fenton-like processes holds significant promise for advancing water purification technologies. However, challenges such as high carrier recombination rates, limited active sites, and suboptimal H2O2 activation efficiency impede optimal performance. Here we show that single-iron-atom dispersed Bi2WO6 monolayers (SIAD-BWOM), designed through a facile hydrothermal approach, can offer abundant active sites for H2O2 activation. The SIAD-BWOM catalyst demonstrates superior photo-Fenton degradation capabilities, particularly for the persistent pesticide dinotefuran (DNF), showcasing its potential in addressing recalcitrant organic pollutants. We reveal that the incorporation of iron atoms in place of tungsten within the electron-rich [WO4]2- layers significantly facilitates electron transfer processes and boosts the Fe(II)/Fe(III) cycle efficiency. Complementary experimental investigations and theoretical analyses further elucidate how the atomically dispersed iron induces lattice strain in the Bi2WO6 monolayer, thereby modulating the d-band center of iron to improve H2O2 adsorption and activation. Our research provides a practical framework for developing advanced photo-Fenton catalysts, which can be used to treat emerging and refractory organic pollutants more effectively.

Abstract
Piezo-self-Fenton system (PESF) has been emerging as a promising water treatment technology but suffering from unsatisfied H2 O2 production efficiency. Herein, we rationally design a Bi12 O17 Cl2 piezo-catalyst with multiple [Bi-O]n interlayers towards highly efficient H2 O2 production. The introduction of [Bi3 O4.25 ] layers initiates dual two-electron pathway for H2 O2 generation by altering the interlayer properties. It is found that the additional [Bi3 O4.25 ] layers not only enhance the polarization electric field but also serve as active sites for triggering dual pathways of two-electron O2 reduction and H2 O oxidation reaction for H2 O2 production. Therefore, the Bi12 O17 Cl2 exhibits an ultrahigh rate of H2 O2 generation (7.76 mM h-1 g-1 ) in pure water. Based on the adequate H2 O2 yield, a PESF was constructed for acetaminophen (ACE) degradation with an apparent rate constant of 0.023 min-1 . This work not only presents a potential strategy of tuning the activity of bismuth based piezo-catalysts but also provides a good example on the construction of highly efficient PESF for environmental remediation by using natural mechanical energy.

Abstract
Solar-driven interfacial evaporation for water purification is limited by the structural design of the solar evaporator and, more importantly, by the inability to separate the water from volatile organic compounds (VOCs) present in the water source. Here, we report a three-dimensional (3D) bifunctional evaporator based on N-doped carbon (CoNC/CF), which enables the separation of fresh water from VOCs by activating PMS during the evaporation process with a VOC removal rate of 99%. There is abundant van der Waals interaction between peroxymonosulfate (PMS) and CoNC/CF, and pyrrolic N is confirmed as the active site for binding phenol, thus contributing to the separation of phenol from water. With the advantageous features of sufficient light absorption, adequate water storage capacity, and spontaneous internal convection flow on its top surface, the 3D evaporator achieves a high evaporation rate under one sun (1 kW/m2) at 3.16 kg/m2/h. More notably, through careful structural design, additional energy from the environment and water can be utilized. With such a high evaporation rate and satisfactory purification performance, this work is expected to provide a promising platform for wastewater treatment.

Abstract
Stimulating electron transitions and promoting exciton dissociation are crucial for improving the photocatalytic performance of polymeric carbon nitride (CN) yet still challenging. Herein, a novel CN with C dopant and asymmetric structure (CC-UCN2 ) is ingeniously synthesized. The obtained CC-UCN2 not only reinforces the intrinsic π→π* electron transitions, but also successfully awakens additional n→π* electron transitions. Besides, charge centers dislocation caused by symmetry breaking induces a spontaneous polarized electric field, effectively breaking the constraints of Coulomb electrostatic interaction between electrons and holes and driving their directional migration. Along with the spatial separation of reduction and oxidation sites, CC-UCN2 shows exceptional O2 activation and holes oxidation efficiency, thus exhibits a high degradation rate constant (0.201 min-1 ) and mineralization rate (80.1%) for bisphenol A (BPA)(far outperforming pristine and other modified CNs). This work proposes a novel perspective for developing high-efficiency photocatalysts and comprehending the underlying mechanism of O2 activation and holes oxidation for pollutant degradation.

Abstract
Simultaneously realizing the efficient generation of H2O2 and degradation of pollutants is of great significance for environmental remediation. However, most polymeric semiconductors only show moderate performance in molecular oxygen (O2) activation due to the sluggish electron-hole pair dissociation and charge transfer dynamics. Herein, we develop a simple thermal shrinkage strategy to construct multi-heteroatom-doped polymeric carbon nitride (K, P, O-CNx). The resultant K, P, O-CNx not only improves the separation efficiency of charge carriers, but also improves the adsorption/activation capacity of O2. K, P, O-CNx significantly increases the production of H2O2 and the degradation activity of oxcarbazepine (OXC) under visible light. K, P, O-CN5 shows a high H2O2 production rate (1858 μM h-1 g-1) in water under visible light, far surpassing that of pure PCN. The apparent rate constant for OXC degradation by K, P, O-CN5 increases to 0.0491 min-1, which is 8.47 times that of PCN. Density functional theory (DFT) calculations show that the adsorption energy of O2 near phosphorus atoms in K, P, O-CNx is the highest. This work provides a new idea for the efficient degradation of pollutants and generation of H2O2 at the same time.

Abstract
Piezo-catalytic self-Fenton (PSF) system has been emerging as a promising technique for wastewater treatment, while the competing O2 reductive hydrogen peroxide (H2O2) production and Fe(III) reduction seriously limited the reaction kinetics. Here, we develop a two-electron water oxidative H2O2 production (WOR-H2O2) coupled with Fe(III) reduction over a Fe(III)/BiOIO3 piezo-catalyst for highly efficient PSF. It is found that the presence of Fe(III) can simultaneously initiate the WOR-H2O2 and reduction of Fe(III) to Fe(II), thereby enabling a rapid reaction kinetics towards subsequent Fenton reaction of H2O2/Fe(II). The Fe(III) initiating PSF system offers exceptional self-recyclable degradation of pollutants with a degradation rate constant for sulfamethoxazole (SMZ) over 3.5 times as that of the classic Fe(II)-PSF system. This study offers a new perspective for constructing efficient PSF systems and shatters the preconceived notion of Fe(III) in the Fenton reaction.

Abstract
Simultaneously realizing efficient intramolecular charge transfer and mass transport in metal-free polymer photocatalysts is critical but challenging for environmental remediation. Herein, we develop a simple strategy to construct holey polymeric carbon nitride (PCN)-based donor-π-acceptor organic conjugated polymers via copolymerizing urea with 5-bromo-2-thiophenecarboxaldehyde (PCN-5B2T D-π-A OCPs). The resultant PCN-5B2T D-π-A OCPs extended the π-conjugate structure and introduced abundant micro-, meso-, and macro-pores, which greatly promoted intramolecular charge transfer, light absorption, and mass transport and thus significantly enhanced the photocatalytic performance in pollutant degradation. The apparent rate constant of the optimized PCN-5B2T D-π-A OCP for 2-mercaptobenzothiazole (2-MBT) removal is ∼10 times higher than that of the pure PCN. Density functional theory calculations reveal that the photogenerated electrons in PCN-5B2T D-π-A OCPs are much easier to transfer from the donor tertiary amine group to the benzene π-bridge and then to the acceptor imine group, while 2-MBT is more easily adsorbed on π-bridge and reacts with the photogenerated holes. A Fukui function calculation on the intermediates of 2-MBT predicted the real-time changing of actual reaction sites during the entire degradation process. Additionally, computational fluid dynamics further verified the rapid mass transport in holey PCN-5B2T D-π-A OCPs. These results demonstrate a novel concept toward highly efficient photocatalysis for environmental remediation by improving both intramolecular charge transfer and mass transport.

Abstract
A novel carbon nitride based self-cleaning hydrogel photocatalyst (KI-PCN gel, potassium and iodine co-doped carbon nitride confined in alginate) has been successfully constructed by a facile method. Fabricated photocatalyst showed enhanced synergistic adsorption-photocatalytic degradation property on a high concentration of methylene blue (HMB) because of enhanced carrier separation efficiency and improved light adsorption capacity of KI-PCN. As expected, the KI-PCN gel showed the highest apparent rate constant value (Kapp =0.0310 min-1), which was about 38.8 and 5.8 times as that of blank hydrogel (Kapp=0.0008 min-1) and PCN gel (Kapp=0.0053 min-1), respectively. Meanwhile, KI-PCN gel can continuously adsorb low concentration of MB (LMB), and the MB-adsorbed KI-PCN gel can self-clean under light irradiation. The bench-scale experiments simulating real river showed that KI-PCN gel can effectively and continuously remove LMB (0.1-20 ppm), indicating the possibility for the removal of contaminants in natural rivers. Furthermore, the possible degradation pathways were proposed by combining the density functional calculations (DFT) and intermediates identified by liquid chromatography-mass spectrometry (LC-MS). This work proposed a new perspective to acquire a novel self-cleaning and easily recyclable photocatalyst for treatment of wide concentration range organic wastewater as well as remediation of natural waterbody.

Abstract
Graphite carbon nitride (g-C3N5) has been widely used in various photocatalytic reactions due to its higher thermodynamic stability and better electronic properties compared to g-C3N4. However, it is still challenging to endow g-C3N5 with high performance on photocatalytic hydrogen peroxide (H2O2) production. Herein, potassium and iodine are co-doped into g-C3N5 (g-C3N5-K, I) for photocatalytic production of H2O2 with high efficiency. As expected, the photocatalytic H2O2 production rate over the g-C3N5-K, I (2933.4 μM h-1) reaches to 84.22 times as that of g-C3N5. The excellent photocatalytic H2O2 production activity is mainly ascribed to the co-doping of K and I, which significantly improves the capacity of oxygen (O2) adsorption, selectivity of two-electrons oxygen reduction reaction (2e- ORR) and separation efficiency of charge carriers. The density functional theory (DFT) calculations reveal that O2 molecules are more conducive to being adsorbed on g-C3N5-K, I. Besides, the result of excited states further indicates that photo-generated electrons can be directionally driven to the adsorbed O2 molecules, which are effectively activated to form H2O2. The findings will contribute to new insights in designing and synthesizing g-C3N5 based photocatalysts for the H2O2 production.

Abstract
Uncovering the interaction between photocatalyst and reaction substrate as well as subsequent electron transfer process is critical to achieve high-performance photodegradation of pollutants. Herein, based on the reduced density gradient (RDG) method, we visualize the simulation of the π-π interactions between photocatalyst (g-C3N4) and pollutant molecule (flumequine, FLU). Results revealed that π-π interactions between g-C3N4 and FLU favor electrons delivery, resulting in enhanced charge separation efficiency and direct hole oxidation of FLU. Moreover, it is found that the charge transfer rate is determined by the valence band (VB) level of g-C3N4 and EHOMO of FLU, of which the deeper VB position of g-C3N4 favors faster charge transfer, leading to further enhancement in photocatalytic degradation rate of FLU. Additionally, the possible degradation pathways of FLU were proposed by theoretical calculation and the determined intermediates. Our work afforded a new insight into pollutants degradation and the rational design of highly efficient photocatalysts.

Abstract
The obtained TCN/NaI possesses Na+ and –OH co-modification, which shows the highest H2O2 generation rate. DFT calculations further reveal that the electron of β spin-orbital in TCN/NaI can transfer to the π* orbital of O2 more facile than BCN.

Abstract
Polymeric carbon nitride (PCN) as a class of two-electron oxygen reduction reaction (2 e- ORR) photocatalyst has attracted much attention for H2 O2 production. However, the low activity and inferior selectivity of 2 e- ORR greatly restrict the H2 O2 production efficiency. Herein, we develop a new strategy to synthesize hydrophilic, fragmented PCN photocatalyst by the terminating polymerization (TP-PCN) effect of iodide ions. The obtained TP-PCN with abundant edge active sites (AEASs), which can form quasi-homogeneous photocatalytic system, exhibits superior H2 O2 generation rate (3265.4 μM h-1 ), far surpassing PCN and other PCN-based photocatalysts. DFT calculations further indicate that TP-PCN is more favorable for electron transiting from β spin-orbital to the π* orbitals of O2 , which optimizes O2 activation and reduces the energy barrier of H2 O2 formation. This work provides a new concept for designing functional photocatalysts and understanding the mechanism of O2 activation in ORR for H2 O2 production.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE To investigate the correlation of baseline serum 25(OH) D level with the risk of type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM) and blood glucose control in diabetic patients among the middle-aged and elderly individuals in Chengguan District of Lanzhou, Gansu Province. OBJECTIVE Residents aged 40 to 75 years in Lanzhou were selected from the "REACTION" study conducted in 2011 and had been followed up since 2014. A total of 5044 subjects with complete data from the two surveys were analyzed. Participants were divided into Q1, Q2, Q3, and Q4 subgroups based on quartiles of serum 25(OH)D level for comparison of the incidence of T2DM and blood glucose control. OBJECTIVE Baseline 25(OH)D level was not found to correlate with FPG, 2h-PG or HbA1c levels among the residents (P>0.05). The participants were followed up for a mean of 3.4±0.6 years, and compared with those in Q1 group, the participants in Q2, Q3 and Q4 groups did not show significantly lowered risk of prediabetes or diabetes regardless of glucose tolerance status. Among the patients with T2DM, the compliance rate of glycemic control after the follow-up was significantly higher than that before the follow-up (63.4% vs 60.6%), and the levels of HbA1c, FPG, and 2h-PG decreased obviously after the follow-up. But compared with Q1 group, Q2, Q3 and Q4 groups showed no significant changes in glycemic control compliance rate or levels of HbA1c, FPG and 2h-PG after the follow-up (P>0.05). OBJECTIVE There is no evidence that baseline 25(OH)D levels are associated with the risk of diabetes and blood glucose control in patients with T2DM.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE To study the effect of ulinastatin (UTI) on myocardial ischemia-reperfusion injury (MIRI) through the extracellular signal-regulated kinase (ERK) signaling pathway. MATERIALS AND METHODS A total of 24 Sprague-Dawley rats were randomly divided into sham group (n=8), I/R group (n=8), and UTI group (n=8), and the rat model of MIRI was established. The changes in the content of serum biochemical indexes, including superoxide dismutase (SOD) and malondialdehyde (MDA), were detected using the kits, and the changes in the expressions of serum inflammatory factors, including interleukin-6 (IL-6) and tumor necrosis factor-α (TNF-α), were detected using the quantitative Reverse Transcription-Polymerase Chain Reaction (qRT-PCR) and enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay (ELISA) kits. Moreover, the ERK phosphorylation level in myocardial tissues was detected using the immunofluorescence method, and the ERK phosphorylation level and cleaved caspase-3 expression were detected via qRT-PCR and Western blotting. RESULTS Compared with those in sham group, the serum SOD content significantly declined, while the MDA content was significantly increased in I/R group, and they were significantly improved in UTI group (p<0.01). The results of detection using qRT-PCR and ELISA kits revealed that the inflammatory factors (IL-6 and TNF-α) in UTI group were significantly improved (p<0.01). The immunofluorescence results showed that the ERK phosphorylation level in myocardial tissues was significantly increased in UTI group. The results of qRT-PCR and Western blotting manifested that both ERK phosphorylation level and cleaved caspase-3 expression were significantly improved in UTI group (p<0.01). CONCLUSIONS UTI can play a protective role in MIRI through up-regulating the ERK signaling pathway.

Abstract
Over the past three decades, the number of obese people has risen steadily. The chronic low-grade inflammatory state and the non-specific activation of the immune system have contributed greatly to the development of obesity-related immunology. Food allergy as a kind of inflammatory disease with abnormal immune response may be associated with obesity. This review begins with the pro-inflammatory immunological effects of adipose tissue in obesity, and explains the possible effects of obesity on food allergy. In short, obesity not only directly causes imbalance of allergic-related immune cells in adipose tissue, but also indirectly causes this consequence through affecting expression of adipocytokines and peroxisome proliferator-activated receptor gamma (PPARγ) in adipose tissue. As a result, circulating levels of pro-inflammatory factors which are partly derived from adipose tissue increase, which might cause intestinal barrier injury. Therefore, obesity may increase the risk of food allergy.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE Osteosarcoma (OS) is the most common primary malignancy, mainly arising from the metaphysic of the long bones of adolescents and young adults. Although osteosarcoma has been studied widely, the underlying molecular mechanism remains unclear. Increasing evidence shows that abnormal long non-coding RNAs (LncRNAs) expression is involved in tumorigenesis. The aim of this study was to identify the detailed role of LncRNA LINC00628 in osteosarcoma. MATERIALS AND METHODS The relative mRNA expression level of LINC00628 in adjacent tissues, osteosarcoma tissues with or without metastasis and osteosarcoma cell lines were detected by qRT-PCR. Overall survival curves for two groups defined by high and low expression level of LINC00628 in osteosarcoma patients. The cell proliferation, invasion and migration in osteosarcoma cells after transfection with lncRNA- NC or lncRNA-LINC00628 were detected. The cell cycle distribution and apoptosis rate in osteosarcoma cells after transfection with lncRNA- NC or lncRNA-LINC00628 were measured using the Flow cytometry analysis. The relative protein expression level of p-PI3K, p-Akt, P53 and Bcl-2 in osteosarcoma cells after transfection with lncRNA- NC or lncRNA-LINC00628 were detected by Western blot. RESULTS LINC00628 expression was significantly decreased in osteosarcoma tissues compared with adjacent tissues. Meanwhile, osteosarcoma tissues with metastasis were significantly associated with a low expression level of LINC00628 and the low expression level of LINC00628 has a lower overall survival rate. LINC00628 expression was increased in osteosarcoma cell lines after transfection with lncRNA-LINC00628 and the cell proliferation, invasion and migration in osteosarcoma cells after transfection with lncRNA-LINC00628 were significantly inhibited. Moreover, the cell cycle was arrested in G0/G1 phase and the apoptosis rate was increased in osteosarcoma cells after transfection with lncRNA-LINC00628. Mechanistically, the relative protein expression level of p-PI3K, p-Akt and Bcl-2 were significantly increased and the relative expression of P53 was significantly decreased in osteosarcoma cells after transfection with lncRNA-LINC00628. CONCLUSIONS LINC00628 expression was decreased in osteosarcoma. The overexpression of LINC00628 inhibited the proliferation, invasion and migration and promoted cell apoptosis in osteosarcoma cells through the inactivation of PI3K/Akt signaling pathway. This lncRNA may be involved in the development and progression of osteosarcoma.

Abstract
Hypersensitivity occurs when the body is stimulated by an antigen, resulting in an immune response, and leads to a physiological disorder or abnormal tissue trauma. Various immune cells, cytokines, and inflammatory mediators are involved in the immune responses related to allergic diseases, which are the core of anaphylaxis. Estrogen receptors are widely distributed in immune cells, which combine with estrogen and participate in allergic responses by affecting immune cells, cytokines, and inflammatory factors. We aimed to summarize the association between estrogen and allergic reactions to provide a scientific basis for understanding and studying the mechanisms of allergic diseases.

Abstract
UNLABELLED We performed a study to identify potential causes and risk factors of vertebral fracture cascade. Vertebral fracture cascade is a severe clinical event in patients with bone fragility. Only half of patients have an identified cause of secondary osteoporosis. INTRODUCTION Vertebral fracture (VF) is the most common osteoporotic fracture, and a strong risk factor of subsequent VFs leading to VF cascade (VFC). We prompted a study to identify potential causes and risk factors of VFC. METHODS VFC observations were collected retrospectively between January 2016 and April 2017. VFC was defined as an occurrence of at least three VFs within 1 year. RESULTS We included in 10 centers a total of 113 patients with VFC (79.6% of women, median age 73, median number of VFs in the cascade, 5). We observed 40.5% and 30.9% of patients with previous major fractures and a previous VF, respectively, and 68.6% with densitometric osteoporosis; 18.9% of patients were currently receiving oral glucocorticoids and 37.1% in the past. VFC was attributed by the physician to postmenopausal osteoporosis in 54% of patients. A secondary osteoporosis associated with the VFC was diagnosed in 52 patients: glucocorticoid-induced osteoporosis (25.7%), non-malignant hemopathies (6.2%), alcoholism (4.4%), use of aromatase inhibitors (3.6%), primary hyperparathyroidism (2.7%), hypercorticism (2.7%), anorexia nervosa (2.7%), and pregnancy and lactation-associated osteoporosis (1.8%). A total of 11.8% of cases were reported following a vertebroplasty procedure. A total of 31.5% patients previously received an anti-osteoporotic treatment. In six patients, VFC occurred early after discontinuation of an anti-osteoporotic treatment, in the year after the last dose effect was depleted: five after denosumab and one after odanacatib. CONCLUSION The results of this retrospective study showed that only half of VFC occurred in patients with a secondary cause of osteoporosis. Prospective studies are needed to further explore the determinants of this severe complication of osteoporosis.

Abstract
Inflammatory bowel diseases (IBDs) are associated with a decreased bone mineral density, but the impact on fractures is unknown. In our study, global risk of fracture is increased for patients with IBDs versus controls. This result will help to determine the appropriate assessment with early screening and management of osteoporosis. Inflammatory bowel diseases (IBDs), such as Crohn's disease (CD) and ulcerative colitis (UC), are associated with a decreased bone mineral density (BMD). However, the impact on fracture risk is unknown and data are contradictory across studies. In this systematic review and meta-analysis, we aimed to assess the risk of fracture and presence of low BMD in patients with IBDs compared to healthy controls. A systematic search of literature was conducted of MEDLINE, EMBASE, the Cochrane library and abstracts from appropriate scientific congresses. Studies were selected if they compared the incidence of fractures and/or BMD measurement by dual-energy X-ray absorptiometry in patients with IBDs and healthy sex- and age-matched controls. Data were extracted by two independent investigators. Meta-analysis was performed with the inverse variance approach to estimate pooled odds ratios (ORs) and risk ratios (RRs) with their 95% confidence intervals (CIs). Twenty-four studies met the inclusion criteria. On the basis of nine studies, global risk of fracture was increased for patients with IBDs versus controls (RR = 1.38, 95% CI 1.11-1.73; p = 0.005). Fracture risk with IBDs was significantly increased for vertebral fractures (OR = 2.26, 95% CI 1.04-4.90; p < 0.001), but not for any other site. The analysis of 16 studies evaluating BMD showed a significant decrease in mean BMD and Z-scores for IBD patients versus controls at all sites. In our meta-analysis, patients with IBDs have an increased risk of fractures, especially in the spine, and significant decreased BMD at all sites, which suggests the need for identifying high-risk individuals among this population.

Abstract
The sun-photometer data from 2011 to 2013 at Panyu site (Panyu) and from 2007 to 2013 at Dongguan site (Dg) in the Pearl River Delta region, were used for the retrieving of the aerosol optical depth (AOD), single scattering albedo (SSA), Ångström exponent (AE) and volume size distribution of coarse- and fine-mode particles. The coarse-mode particles presented low AOD (ranging from 0.05±0.03 to 0.08±0.05) but a strong absorption property (SSA ranged from 0.70±0.03 to 0.90±0.02) for the wavelengths between 440 and 1020nm. However, these coarse particles accounted for <10% of the total particles. The AOD of fine particles (AODf) was over 3 times as large as that of coarse particles (AODc). The fine particles SSA (SSAf) generally decreased as a function of wavelength, and the relatively lower SSAf value in summer was likely to be due to the stronger solar radiation and higher temperature. More than 70% of the aerosols at Panyu site were dominated by fine-mode absorbing particles, whereas about 70% of the particles at Dg site were attributed to fine-mode scattering particles. The differences of the aerosol optical properties between the two sites are likely associated with local emissions of the light-absorbing carbonaceous aerosols and the scattering aerosols (e.g., sulfate and nitrate particles) caused by the gas-phase oxidation of gaseous precursors (e.g., SO2 and NO2). The size distribution exhibited bimodal structures in which the accumulation mode was predominant. The fine-mode volume showed positive dependence on AOD (500nm), and the growth of peak value of the fine-mode volume was higher than that of the coarse volume. Both the AOD and SSA increased with increasing relative humidity (RH), while the AE decreased with increasing RH. These correlations imply that the aerosol properties are greatly modified by condensation growth.

Abstract
In space plasma, various effects of magnetic reconnection and turbulence cause the electron motion to significantly deviate from their Larmor orbits. Collectively these orbits affect the electron velocity distribution function and lead to the appearance of the "non-gyrotropic" elements in the pressure tensor. Quantification of this effect has important applications in space and laboratory plasma, one of which is tracing the electron diffusion region (EDR) of magnetic reconnection in space observations. Three different measures of agyrotropy of pressure tensor have previously been proposed, namely, A∅ e , Dng and Q. The multitude of contradictory measures has caused confusion within the community. We revisit the problem by considering the basic properties an agyrotropy measure should have. We show that A∅ e , Dng and Q are all defined based on the sum of the principle minors (i.e. the rotation invariant I 2) of the pressure tensor. We discuss in detail the problems of I 2-based measures and explain why they may produce ambiguous and biased results. We introduce a new measure AG constructed based on the determinant of the pressure tensor (i.e. the rotation invariant I 3) which does not suffer from the problems of I 2-based measures. We compare AG with other measures in 2 and 3-dimension particle-in-cell magnetic reconnection simulations, and show that AG can effectively trace the EDR of reconnection in both Harris and force-free current sheets. On the other hand, A∅ e does not show prominent peaks in the EDR and part of the separatrix in the force-free reconnection simulations, demonstrating that A∅ e does not measure all the non-gyrotropic effects in this case, and is not suitable for studying magnetic reconnection in more general situations other than Harris sheet reconnection.

Abstract
In this study, a novel Ag/Bi3O4Cl photocatalyst has been synthesized by a facile photodeposition process. Its photocatalytic performance was evaluated from the degradation of tetracycline (TC) under visible light irradiation (λ > 420 nm). The 1.0 wt% Ag/Bi3O4Cl photocatalyst could significantly enhance the degradation of TC compared with pure Bi3O4Cl, with the degradation level reaching 94.2% in 120 minutes. The enhancement of photocatalytic activity could be attributed to the synergetic effect of the photogenerated electrons (e−) of Bi3O4Cl and the surface plasmon resonance (SPR) caused by Ag nanoparticles, which could improve the absorption capacity of visible light and facilitate the separation of photogenerated electron–hole pairs. In addition, electron spin resonance (ESR) analysis and trapping experiments demonstrated that the superoxide radicals (˙O2−), hydroxyl radicals (˙OH) and holes (h+) played crucial roles in the photocatalytic process of TC degradation. The present work provides a promising approach for the development of highly efficient photocatalysts to address current environmental pollution, energy issues and other related areas. A novel Ag/Bi3O4Cl photocatalyst has been synthesized by a facile photodeposition process. The Ag/Bi3O4Cl photocatalyst exhibited excellent photocatalytic activity for the degradation of tetracycline.![]()

Abstract
This study analyzes the performance of SBA-15 mesoporous particles carrying oxytocin (OT) in promoting osteogenesis in vitro and in vivo. The SBA-15 particles synthesized in the previous studies (about 30 μm in diameter and containing 10 nm deep pores) were loaded with the drug oxytocin and cultured with human osteosarcoma MG-63 cell line in vitro. The influence of particles on cell proliferation was studied. The level of the osteogenic marker (alkaline phosphatase and type I collagen) was measured. For in vivo studies, the connectivity defects of rabbit skull were prepared, and SBA-15 suspensions were regularly injected at the defect sites. The changes in the defect site calcium salt deposition were measured, and morphological changes were observed by microscopy. The material had to promote effect on osteogenesis-related indicators such as alkaline phosphatase and collagen I in bone sarcoma cell line MG-63. In vivo, the calcium salt deposition in OT/SBA-15 group was significantly higher than in the blank group. SBA-15 carriers appeared to persist in the region of the defect after the injection and release the drugs slowly, thus playing a more distinct role in promoting bone repair of local bone defects. The results showed that SBA-15 particles with OT could slow the release drugs and could help in promoting osteogenesis.

Abstract
The vascular smooth muscle cell (VSMC) phenotypic switch is a key pathophysiological change in various cardiovascular diseases, such as aortic dissection (AD), with a high morbidity. Polycystin-1 (PC1) is significantly downregulated in the VSMCs of AD patients. PC1 is an integral membrane glycoprotein and kinase that regulates different biological processes, including cell proliferation, apoptosis, and cell polarity. However, the role of PC1 in intracellular signaling pathways remains poorly understood. In this study, PC1 downregulation in VSMCs promoted the expression of SM22α, ACTA2 and calponin 1 (CNN1) proteins. Furthermore, PC1 downregulation in VSMCs upregulated phospho-MEK, phospho-ERK and myc, but did not change phospho-JNK and phospho-p38. These findings suggest that the MEK/ERK/myc signaling pathway is involved in PC1-mediated human VSMC phenotypic switch. Opposite results were observed when an ERK inhibitor was used in VSMCs downregulated by PC1. When the C-terminal domain of PC1 (PC1 C-tail) was overexpressed in VSMCs, the expression levels of phosphor-ERK, myc, SM22α, ACTA2 and CNN1 proteins were downregulated. The group with the overexpressed mutant protein (S4166A) in the PC1 C-tail showed similar results to the group with the downregulated PC1 in VSMCs. These results suggest that the Ser at the 4166 site in PC1 is crucial in the PC1 mediated MEK/ERK/myc signaling pathway, which might be the key pathophysiological cause of AD.

Abstract
Anthelmintic resistance in veterinary nematodes, including Haemonchus contortus, has become a limitation to maintaining high standards of animal health. Resistance in this parasite, to all drug families including the macrocyclic lactones (MLs) is a serious issue worldwide. Mechanisms of resistance to the MLs appear to be complex and to include the elimination of these compounds by ABC transporter-like proteins present in nematodes. In order to investigate the potential involvement of ABC transporters in ML resistance in H. contortus, we have characterized the functionality of the ABC transporter H. contortus P-glycoprotein-16 (Hco-PGP-16) expressed in mammalian cells. This has included a study of its interaction with different MLs, including the avermectins, abamectin (ABA) and ivermectin (IVM), and the milbemycin, moxidectin (MOX). Hco-PGP-16 transport activity was studied using the fluorophore Rhodamine 123 (Rho 123). Transfected cells expressing Hco-PGP-16 accumulated less than 50% of Rho 123 than control cells, suggesting an active transport of this tracer dye by Hco-PGP-16. The influence of the MLs on the Rho123 transport by Hco-PGP-16 was then investigated. A marked inhibition of Rho123 transport by ABA and IVM was observed. In contrast, MOX showed less effect on inhibition of Rho123 transport by Hco-PGP-16, and the inhibition was not saturable. The difference in the interaction of the avermectins and MOX with Hco-PGP-16 may help explain the slower rate of development of resistance to MOX compared with the avermectins in H. contortus.

Abstract
OBJECTIVES Nowadays, the recommended measures for optimal monitoring of axial Spondyloarthritis (ax-SpA) disease activity are either BASDAI and CRP, or ASDAS-CRP. However, there could be a gap between recommendations and daily practice. We aimed to determine the measures collected by rheumatologists in an ax-SpA follow-up visit, and to determine the impact of a meeting (where rheumatologists reached a consensus on the measures to be collected) on the collection of such measures. METHODS A consensual meeting of a local network of 32 rheumatologists proposed, four months later, to report at least the BASDAI score in the medical file of every ax-SpA patient at every follow-up visit. An independent investigator reviewed the medical files of 10 consecutive patients per rheumatologist, seen twice during the year (e.g. before and after the meeting). The most frequently collected measures were assessed, and then, the frequency of collection before and after the meeting was compared. RESULTS A total of 456 medical files from 228 patients were reviewed. Treatment (>60%), CRP (51.3%) and total BASDAI (28.5%) were the most reported measures in medical files. Before/After the meeting, the frequencies of collected measures in medical files were 28.5%/51.7%, 51.3%/52.2%, 16.7%/31.6% and 0.9%/6.1% for BASDAI, CRP, BASDAI + CRP and ASDAS, respectively reaching a statistically significance for BASDAI, ASDAS and BASDAI+CRP (p<0.05). CONCLUSIONS This study revealed a low rate of systematic report of the recommended outcome measures in ax-SpA. However, it suggests that a consensual meeting involving practicing rheumatologists might be relevant to improve the implementation of such recommendations.

Abstract
The observed steep kinetic scale turbulence spectrum in the solar wind raises the question of how that turbulence originates. Observations of keV energetic electrons during solar quiet time suggest them as a possible source of free energy to drive kinetic turbulence. Using particle-in-cell simulations, we explore how the free energy released by an electron two-stream instability drives Weibel-like electromagnetic waves that excite wave-wave interactions. Consequently, both kinetic Alfvénic and whistler turbulence are excited that evolve through inverse and forward magnetic energy cascades.

Abstract
The effects of Mg concentration and annealing temperature on the characteristics of nanocrystalline Mg(x)Zn(1 - x)O thin films (where x = 0-0.4) were studied using electron microscopy and photoluminescence. The films were prepared by a sol-gel method. The solid solubility limit of MgO in ZnO for the sol-gel-derived Mg(x)Zn(1 - x)O films in the present study was determined to be ∼ 20 at.%. Microstructural characterization of the films showed that the wurtzite crystallites decrease in size with increase in Mg concentration up to the solubility limit. Increasing Mg concentration beyond the solubility limit resulted in a decrease in crystallinity of the films. The bandgap energy was found to increase with Mg concentration whereas the linewidth first increased and then decreased when the Mg concentration was increased beyond the solubility limit. Photoluminescence properties have been correlated to the microstructure of the films. A growth mechanism for Mg(x)Zn(1 - x)O nanocrystalline films under the present processing conditions has also been proposed.
