Abstract
Fixation of CO2 into dihydroisobenzofuran derivatives has enormous applications in both production of natural products and antidepressant drugs, and reducing the green-house effect. However, the relatively complicated multi-step processes limit the further expansion of such a valuable CO2 conversion strategy. Herein, we hierarchically modify the surface of Cu nanoparticles (NPs) with Ag NPs and the robust metal-organic framework (MOF), ZIF-8, and report the presence of the Cu-Ag yolk-shell nanoalloy based heterogeneous catalysts, Cu@Ag and Cu@Ag@ZIF-8. The latter exhibits a crystalline "raisin bread" structure and specific synergic activity for catalyzing the tandem reactions of intra-molecular H-transfer, C-C and C-O coupling, cyclization, and carboxylation from CO2, leading to the first non-homogeneous preparation of dihydroisobenzofuran derivatives in high yield, selectivity, and recyclability under mild conditions. Theoretical calculations elucidate the tandem reaction pathway synergically catalyzed by Cu@Ag@ZIF-8, which offers insights for designing multiphase catalysts towards both organic synthesis and CO2 fixation through tandem processes in one pot.

Abstract
Lamellar metal-organic frameworks (MOFs) have attracted significant attention in the field of electrochemical sensing due to their abundant open active sites and specific electron conductivity. Herein, by employing a bottom-up synthesis strategy, rhombic lamellar heterometallic CoNi-MOFs with varying thicknesses are constructed. This is achieved by using 4-methylpyridine as a capping agent based on the (4,6)-linked Co2(azpy)2(bptc) (azpy = 4,4'-azopyridine, bptc = 3,3',5,5'-biphenyltetracarboxylic acid) structure with a fsc topology and by introducing Ni species simultaneously. To mitigate sulfur deposition on electrodes, the triple pulse amperometry (TPA) method is employed. Among the synthesized lamellar CoNi-MOFs, lamellar CoNi-MOF-3 with the minimum thickness exhibits an optimal electrochemical sensing performance toward hydrogen sulfide, with a sensitivity of 119.3 μA·mM-1·cm-2 in the linear range of 2-2000 μM. This study pioneers a new approach to the controlled construction and electrochemical activity modification of lamellar MOF materials.

3-O-Methyl-D-Glucose Blunts Cold Ischemia Damage in Kidney via Inhibiting Ferroptosis. Biomed Pharmacother 2024; 173:116262. [PMID: 38394845 DOI: 10.1016/j.biopha.2024.116262] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 10/24/2023] [Revised: 01/20/2024] [Accepted: 02/06/2024] [Indexed: 02/25/2024] Open
Abstract
BACKGROUND The glucose derivative 3-O-methyl-D-glucose (OMG) is used as a cryoprotectant in freezing cells. However, its protective role and the related mechanism in static cold storage (CS) of organs are unknown. The present study aimed to investigate the effect of OMG on cod ischemia damage in cold preservation of donor kidney. METHODS Pretreatment of OMG on kidney was performed in an isolated renal cold storage model in rats. LDH activity in renal efflux was used to evaluate the cellular damage. Indicators including iron levels, mitochondrial damage, MDA level, and cellular apoptosis were measured. Kidney quality was assessed via a kidney transplantation (KTx) model in rats. The grafted animals were followed up for 7 days. Ischemia reperfusion (I/R) injury and inflammatory response were assessed by biochemical and histological analyses. RESULTS OMG pretreatment alleviated prolonged CS-induced renal damage as evidenced by reduced LDH activities and tubular apoptosis. Kidney with pCS has significantly increased iron, MDA, and TUNEL+ cells, implying the increased ferroptosis, which has been partly inhibited by OMG. OMG pretreatment has improved the renal function (p <0.05) and prolonged the 7-day survival of the grafting recipients after KTx, as compared to the control group. OMG has significantly decreased inflammation and tubular damage after KTx, as evidenced by CD3-positive cells and TUNEL-positive cells. CONCLUSION Our study demonstrated that OMG protected kidney against the prolonged cold ischemia-caused injuries through inhibiting ferroptosis. Our results suggested that OMG might have potential clinical application in cold preservation of donor kidney.

Abstract
Chiral metal-organic materials (CMOMs), can offer molecular binding sites that mimic the enantioselectivity exhibited by biomolecules and are amenable to systematic fine-tuning of structure and properties. Herein, we report that the reaction of Ni(NO3)2, S-indoline-2-carboxylic acid (S-IDECH), and 4,4'-bipyridine (bipy) afforded a homochiral cationic diamondoid, dia, network, [Ni(S-IDEC)(bipy)(H2O)][NO3], CMOM-5. Composed of rod building blocks (RBBs) cross-linked by bipy linkers, the activated form of CMOM-5 adapted its pore structure to bind four guest molecules, 1-phenyl-1-butanol (1P1B), 4-phenyl-2-butanol (4P2B), 1-(4-methoxyphenyl)ethanol (MPE), and methyl mandelate (MM), making it an example of a chiral crystalline sponge (CCS). Chiral resolution experiments revealed enantiomeric excess, ee, values of 36.2-93.5%. The structural adaptability of CMOM-5 enabled eight enantiomer@CMOM-5 crystal structures to be determined. The five ordered crystal structures revealed that host-guest hydrogen-bonding interactions are behind the observed enantioselectivity, three of which represent the first crystal structures determined of the ambient liquids R-4P2B, S-4P2B, and R-MPE.

Abstract
The widespread use of chemicals has brought serious water pollution threatening human health and environment, which requires green, fast, and low-cost purification urgently. Here, we build up a novel material family of sky-parking-like 3D structured graphene oxides (SP-GOs) with adjustable interlayer-space of 0.8-1.7 nm via the insertion of different sized diamine compounds as support pillars between GO layers. The assembled 3D SP-GOs exhibit superior adsorption capacity and short removal time for various aromatic organic compounds in water, achieving record-breaking maximum adsorption capacity of 535.79 mg g-1 toward the most common water-pollutant bisphenol A (BPA) at ambient conditions as well as significantly improved removal of other organic pollutants including sulfapyridine, carbamazepine, ketoprofen and 2-naphthol. The construction of SP-GO provides a simple approach for evolving the GO material from 2D to 3D and a new avenue for the decontamination of pollutants in environmental remediation.

Abstract
Two C2 H6 -selective metal-organic framework (MOF) adsorbents with ultrahigh stability, high surface areas, and suitable pore size have been designed and synthesized for one-step separation of ethane/ethylene (C2 H6 /C2 H4 ) under humid conditions to produce polymer-grade pure C2 H4 . Experimental results reveal that these two MOFs not only adsorb a high amount of C2 H6 but also display good C2 H6 /C2 H4 selectivity verified by fixed bed column breakthrough experiments. Most importantly, the good water stability and hydrophobic pore environments make these two MOFs capable of efficiently separating C2 H6 /C2 H4 under humid conditions, exhibiting the benchmark performance among all reported adsorbents for separation of C2 H6 /C2 H4 under humid conditions. Moreover, the affinity sites and their static adsorption energies were successfully revealed by single crystal data and computation studies. Adsorbents described in this work can be used to address major chemical industrial challenges.

Abstract
The morphology of nano-Cu2O profoundly determines its catalytic performance. Here, we provide two universal and reliable techniques to modify the surface of nano-Cu2O. First, we detail steps for the systematic tuning of the exposed facets of nano-Cu2O ranging from low index to high index using reductant-controlled technique in the presence of sodium dodecyl sulfate. Second, we describe steps for facet-directed precipitation in which the morphology-dependent ZIF-8 (a type of zeolitic imidazolate frameworks) shells on different nano-Cu2O are well introduced. For complete details on the use and execution of this protocol, please refer to Luo et al. (2022).

Abstract
Environmental problem caused by carbon emission is of widespread concern. Involving CO2 as C1 resource into chemical synthesis is one of the most attractive ways for carbon recycling. Herein, the first example of host-guest composites featuring metal-organic framework (MOF)-encapsulated binuclear N-heterocyclic carbene (NHC) complex, Co2 @MIL101, was developed with the molecularly dispersed [Co(IPr)Br]2 (μ-Br)2 (Co2 ) loading in the cage of MIL-101(Cr) via a "ligand-in-dimer-trap" strategy, which was comprehensively investigated through various techniques including synchrotron X-ray absorption, electron microscopy, X-ray diffraction, solid-state nuclear magnetic resonance spectroscopy, and others. The noble-metal-free double-sites catalyst Co2 @MIL101 exhibited promising stability, activity, efficiency, reusability, and substrate adaptability for converting CO2 into various formamides with amines and hydrosilanes and achieved the best performance for one of the most useful formamides, N-methyl-N-phenylformamide (MFA), among the recyclable catalysts at ambient conditions, providing a reliable approach to successfully unify the advantages of both homo- and heterogeneous catalysts. Density functional theory calculations were applied to illustrate the superior activity of the binuclear NHC complex center as double-sites catalyst toward the activation of CO2 .

Abstract
The current study aimed to investigate the clinical feasibility of microscopic resection of hemilateral tuberculum sellae meningiomas (TSM) via the contralateral eye brow arch approach. The clinical data of 34 patients with TSM who underwent microsurgery from January 2016 to June 2021 in the Neurosurgery Department of Ruijin Hospital Affiliated to Shanghai Jiaotong University School of Medicine and the First Affiliated Hospital of Henan University were collected and reviewed. The postoperative visual acuity improvement rate was 88.5% (23/26), and the total tumor resection rate was 88.2% (30/34); the postoperative visual acuity improvement in patients with total tumor resection was better than that of patients with partial resection [90.9% (20/22) vs 3/4]. Meanwhile, the postoperative visual acuity improvement in patients with the superior optic nerve and laterl-superior optic nerve was better than that of patients with the lateral optic nerve type (12/14, 8/8 vs 3/4). Supraorbital skin numbness occurred in 3 cases after operation, and the symptoms disappeared during follow-up; 2 cases had mild disturbance of hormone level, and urine output of 2 cases increased after operation, which returned to normal level after symptomatic treatment; 1 case had subcutaneous effusion which was absorbed after treatment. There were no complications such as olfactory disturbance and intracranial infection. During follow-up for 3-60 (33±6) months, recurrence occurred in 2 cases and reoperation was performed. For the hemilateral TSM, according to the preoperative evaluation of the origin of the TSM and the side with visual impairment, the contralateral eyebrow approach is selected to fully expose the tumor base below the optic nerve. It is beneficial to fully resect the tumor under direct vision, and the symptoms of postoperative visual impairment are significantly improved, indicating that the current surgical method can be used in the clinical setting.

Abstract
The photocatalytic production of syngas from CO2 and water is an attractive and straightforward way for both solar energy storage and sustainable development. Here, we combined the hybrid shell of a bimetallic metal-organic framework (MOF) Zn/Co-zeolitic imidazolate framework (ZIF) and the hybrid photoactive center of Ni-doped CdS nanoparticles (Ni@CdS) to construct a new "2 + 2" photocatalysis system Ni@CdS⊂Zn/Co-ZIF through a facile self-assembly process, which exhibited a double-synergic effect for visible light harvesting and CO2 conversion, leading to one of the highest photocatalytic syngas production rates and excellent recyclability. The H2/CO of syngas ratios can be readily adjusted by controlling the ratio of Zn/Co in the hybrid MOF shell.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Acute kidney injury (AKI) is the main reason for the bad outcome of the donation of circulatory death (DCD) kidney after transplantation. Prolonged cold storage (CS) is a risk factor for the occurrence of the delayed graft function in DCD kidney. The protein NLR-domain containing receptor 3 (NLRP3) plays a crucial role in renal ischemia reperfusion injury by triggering inflammasome formation. Herein, we investigated whether the NLRP3 signal participate in the CS-induced damage of DCD kidney in rat kidney transplantation models. MATERIALS AND METHODS DCD kidney and living donor (LD) kidney of SD rats were preserved in UW solution at 4 °C for 2 h or 18 h, and then transplanted into syngeneic recipient. Thus, the animals were randomly divided into 4 groups: 2-h LD group, 2-h DCD group, 18-h LD group and 18-h DCD group. The renal function and pathological changes were determined. The expressions of NLRP3 and inflammatory factor IL-1β were assessed. The concentration of ferrous iron (Fe2+) was analyzed both in kidneys and in the preservation solution. The renal morphological changes were examined by hematoxylin eosin staining. RESULTS Our results showed that the levels of Cr and BUN were higher in 18-h LD group as compared to the 2-h LD group, which were remarkably increased in 18-h DCD group. The expression levels of NLRP3 and IL-1β were increased by 18-h CS compared to 2-h CS in both LD kidney and DCD kidney. In addition, the Fe2+ concentration has significantly increased in 18-h LD group than that in 2-h LD group, and the elevation of Fe2+ was more remarkable in DCD kidneys. CONCLUSION In conclusion, our study demonstrated that prolonged hypothermic storage of DCD kidney deteriorated the graft function via the increased Fe2+ concentration, which was associated with the upregulation of NLRP3 expression.

Abstract
In the surroundings of carbon neutrality, nano-Cu2 O is considered a promising catalyst for the electrochemical CO2 reduction reaction (ECO2 RR), whose improvements in product selectivity still require considerable efforts. Here, we present an efficient strategy for controlling the ECO2 RR product by modifying the surface of nano-Cu2 O, i.e., by controlling the exposed facets via a reductant-controlled method to achieve the highest C2 H4 selectivity (Faradic efficiency=74.1 %) for Cu2 O-based catalysts in neutral electrolytes, and introducing a well-suited metal-organic framework (MOF) coating on the surface of nano-Cu2 O to obtain syngas completely with an appropriate H2 :CO ratio. Detailed mechanism and key intermediate have been illustrated by DFT calculations. Our systematic strategy is expected to control the ECO2 RR product, improve the selectivity, and provide a reliable method for CO2 management and the green production of important carbon resources.

Abstract
Metal-organic frameworks (MOFs) represent an ideal platform for the construction of highly active composite catalysts. However, loading metastable and/or multicomponent metal compounds into MOFs remains a synthetic bottleneck due to the great challenge of keeping the guest and matrix intact during the preparation of a composite. In this work, we develop a new impregnation reduction surface modification (IRSM) strategy to give a new composite catalyst CuCl@MIL-101(Cr), which is successfully postmodified by in situ construction of CuII defects on the surface of loaded CuCl inside MOF pores, leading to the new composite material CuII/CuI@MIL-101(Cr). The new dual-component composite catalyst exhibits a hierarchical structure and superior catalytic activity in C-C homocoupling of arylboronic acids under green conditions. This study presents a facile strategy for improving the catalytic activity by constructing defects on the surface of MOF-based catalysts as well as for forming multiple-component composite materials.

Abstract
It is of profound significance with regard to the global energy crisis to develop new techniques and materials that can convert the chemical potential of water into other forms of energy, especially electricity. To address this challenge, we built a new type of energy transduction pathway (humidity gradients → mechanical work → electrical power) using moisture-responsive crystalline materials as the media for energy transduction. Single-crystal data revealed that a flexible zeolitic pyrimidine framework material, ZPF-2-Co, could undergo a reversible structural transformation (β to α phase) with a large unit cell change upon moisture stimulus. Dynamic water vapor sorption analysis showed a gate-opening effect with a steep uptake at as low as 10% relative humidity (RH). The scalable green synthesis approach and the fast water vapor adsorption-desorption kinetics made ZPF-2-Co an excellent sorbent to harvest water from arid air, as verified by real water-harvesting experiments. Furthermore, we created a gradient distribution strategy to fabricate polymer-hybridized mechanical actuators based on ZPF-2-Co that could perform reversible bending deformation upon a variation of the humidity gradient. This mechanical actuator showed remarkable durability and reusability. Finally, coupling the moisture-responsive actuator with a piezoelectric transducer further converted the mechanical work into electrical power. This work offers a new type of moisture-responsive smart material for energy transduction and provides an in-depth understanding of the responsive mechanism at the molecular level.

Abstract
Metal-organic framework (MOF)-supported metal/metal compound nanoparticles (NPs) have emerged as a new class of composite catalysts. However, huge challenges prevail in placing such NPs in the MOF pores because of the poor solubility of metal/metal oxides, limited availability of suitable precursors, metastable attribute of given metal ions, and lower thermal stability of MOFs compared to conventional porous materials. Based on the difference between the thermal stability of the precursor and MOFs, we successfully developed a controlled thermal conversion (CTC) method to load cobalt(II) oxide (CoO) NPs into the framework of MOF (MIL-101) to conveniently obtain a composite catalyst, CoO@MIL-101, which is a very rare example of pure CoO NP-loaded composite catalyst that shows excellent catalytic activity in the selective oxidation of benzyl alcohol. This CTC strategy opens up a pathway for impregnating MOF supports with specific NPs, which is further confirmed by preparing the first CuBr@MOF-type composite catalyst.

Abstract
The conversion of CO2 into high value-added chemical products is the focus of current scientific research. We make use of the specific porous structure of nanosized metal-organic frameworks (MOFs) loading the highly active yet metastable nano Cu2O to catalyze the conversion of CO2 into a series of high value-added bioactive pyridone/pyrone-3-carboxylic acid products via heterocyclic 4-hydroxy-2-pyridones/pyrones, which exhibit high activity, selectivity, and reusability. Nano MOF sponge-covered metastable nanoparticles (NPs) converting CO2 into high value-added bioproducts provide a facile "dual-side surfactant" strategy, a highly efficient composite catalyst, and a practicable pathway not only for the sustainable use of CO2 but also for environment-friendly production of bioproducts.

Abstract
Dissolution-recrystallization structural transformation (DRST) is a powerful tool to unravel unequivocally the mechanism of dynamic conversion processes, based on the structures of the initial reactants, final products and sometimes intermediates isolated from the reaction mixture. Herein, we illustrate the details of the conversion processes of (CuIpz)3 into [CuII(OH)pz]6 (pzH = 4-chloro-3,5-diphenylpyrazole) through DRSTs. Based on crystal structure determination and spectroscopic methods, the most encountered species, (CuIpz)3, is in equilibrium with (CuIpz)4 in solution with the tetramer becoming dominant at low temperature, indicating an entropy-controlled conversion between these two structural isomers. The CuI trimer/tetramer in solution further experiences an oxidation if exposed to the open air, resulting in the formation of a pentanuclear mixed-valence intermediate CuI3CuII2(OMe)2pz5 which can be isolated as single crystals at -20 °C and has been structurally characterized for the first time. The final product isolated from the solution is the fully oxidized hexanuclear [CuII(OMe)pz]6, which is easily transformed into [CuII(OH)pz]6 in the presence of humidity.

Abstract
Xylitol is one of the most famous chemicals known to people as the essential ingredient of chewing gum and as the sugar alternative for diabetics. Catalytic hydrogenation of biomass-derived xylose with H2 to produce high-value xylitol has been carried out under harsh reaction conditions. Herein, we exhibit the combination of Ru NPs with an environmentally benign MOF (ZIF-67) to afford a heterogeneous composite catalyst. Complete conversion of xylose with 100% selectivity to xylitol was achieved at 50°C and 1 atm H2. This is the first successful attempt to produce xylitol with ambient pressure H2 as well as the first time to achieve a 100% selectivity of xylitol for applicable catalysts. We also proved the universality of the Ru@ZIF-67 towards other hydrogenation processes. Under 1 atm H2, we achieved 100% conversion and >99% selectivity of 1-phenylethanol at 50°C for the hydrogenation of acetophenone. This is also the first report of hydrogenating acetophenone to 1-phenylethanol under 1 atm H2, which confirms that our result not only contributes to enhance the industrial yields of xylitol and reduces both the economical and energy costs but also provides new perspectives on the other hydrogenation process with H2.

Abstract
Metal-organic frameworks (MOFs) are constructed by periodically alternate metal ions with organic ligands, which offer structural diversity and a wide range of interesting properties as an attractive classification of crystalline porous materials. Integration of MOFs with other size-limited functional centers can supply new multifunctional composites, which exhibit both the properties of the components and new characteristics due to the combination of MOFs with the selected loadings. In recent years, integration of metal/metal oxide nanoparticles (MNPs) into MOFs to form the composite catalysts has attracted considerable attention due to the superior performance. In this review, the latest studies and up-to-date developments on the design and synthetic strategy of new MNP@MOF composite catalysts are specifically highlighted. Both the achievements and problems are evaluated and proposed, and the opportunities and challenges of MNP@MOF composite catalysts are discussed.

Abstract
A 3D nanocage architecture with two types of connectivity was successfully assembled from discrete supramolecular nanocages.
The rapid development of supramolecular chemistry provides a powerful bottom-up approach to construct various well-defined nano-architectures with increasing complexity and functionality. Compared to that of small and simple nanometric objects, the self-assembly of larger and more complex nanometric objects, such as nanocages, remains a significant challenge. Herein, we used a discrete nanocage as the monomer to successfully construct a novel three-dimensional (3D) supramolecular architecture, which comprises two types of nanocage building units with different connectivity, using the solvent-assisted coordination-driven assembly approach. The mechanism of this supramolecular assembly process was investigated by electrospray ionization mass spectrometry (ESI-MS) studies, which identified for the first time the formation of a nanocage dimer intermediate during the assembly process. The assembly of discrete nanocages into a 3D supramolecular architecture led to remarkable enhancement of stability and gas adsorption properties.

Abstract
Objective: To investigate the effect of perioperative fluid therapy on early postoperative pulmonary complication (PPC) after orthotopic liver transplantation (OLT). Methods: The clinical data of 132 patients who underwent OLT in the First Affiliated Hospital of Xi'an Jiaotong University from April 2016 to December 2017 were analyzed retrospectively. These patients included 96 males and 36 females, aged (47.3±9.6) years (range: 24-69 years). Based on the clinical manifestations, laboratory and imaging findings of patients in ICU and PPC occurrence within 7 days after OLT surgery, the patients were divided into 2 groups: non-PPC group and PPC group. Univariate and multivariate logistic regression analyses were used to evaluate the association between perioperative variables and PPC. The Kaplan-Meier method was used to estimate cumulative survival of recipients with or without PPC within 2-years. Results: During the follow-up, 11 patients (8.3%) died and 72 patients (54.5%) developed PPC after operation. There were 34 cases, 6 cases, 3 cases, 4 cases, 15 cases, 6 cases and 4 cases of only pleural effusion, only pulmonary edema, only pneumonia, pleural effusion with pneumonia, pleural effusion with pulmonary edema, pleural effusion with atelectasis, and pleural effusion with pneumonia and pneumonia in PPC, respectively. Univariate analysis showed that the preoperative factors (model for end-stage liver disease score), the intra-operative factors (duration of surgery, total infusion volume, total blood products) and the postoperative cumulative fluid balance within the first 24 h, 48 h, and 72 h were the prognosis factors of PPC (P<0.05). At least two out of the first three postoperative days with a fluid balance of ≤-500 ml was a protective factor. Using multivariate analysis by Logistic regression, only the red blood units >10 U (OR=3.55, 95% CI: 1.35-9.26, P=0.010) and the cumulative fluid intake >12 L (OR=2.98, 95% CI: 1.14-7.80, P=0.026) within the first 72 h after operation were independent prognosis factors of PPC after OLT. Kaplan-Meier analysis showed that the cumulative survival rate was lower in PPC group than that in non-PPC group (χ(2)=6.590, P=0.01). Conclusion: Massive red blood cell transfusion and the cumulative fluid volume >12 L during perioperative 72 hours are independent prognosis factors of PPC after OLT.

[The evaluation of severity and treatment for OSAHS by acoustic pharyngometry which in different postures]. LIN CHUANG ER BI YAN HOU TOU JING WAI KE ZA ZHI = JOURNAL OF CLINICAL OTORHINOLARYNGOLOGY, HEAD, AND NECK SURGERY 2019; 33:118-122.

Abstract
Objective: To investigate the optimal position in application of acoustic pharyngometry to detect the pharyngeal condition and to assess its therapeutic effect on obstructive sleep apnea hypopnea syndrome(OSAHS). Method: Eight adult males were assigned to the normal group, and 57 male patients with OSAHS diagnosed by polysomnograhy(PSG) were assigned to the snoring group. Of the snoring group, 11 patients who were diagnosed severe OSAHS underwent low-temperature plasma uvulopaltopharyngoplasty(UPPP) and coblationchanneling of the tongue(CCT), were assigned to the operation subgroup; 8 patients underwent continuous positive airway pressure(CPAP), which was assigned to the CPAP subgroup. And remainders underwent conservative treatment, including weight loss and position change. Acoustic pharyngometry (three positions including sitting position, supine position and lateral position) and PSG exam were performed in all participants. Additionally, acoustic pharyngometry under three positions was conducted again in patients in the operation and CPAP subgroups three months after treatment. Result: The minimum cross-sectional area was negatively associated with both AHI and the percentage of time with oxygen saturation below 90%(SIT90)( P<0.01). The correlation coefficient of the minimum crosssectional area insupine position with AHI and SIT90 were r=-0.569,r=-0.478, respectively. Under supine position, the minimum crosssectional area was negatively correlated with body mass index(BMI)(r=-0.265, P=0.033), and the minimum crosssectional area was negatively associated with neck circumference(r=-0.309, P=0.012). The minimum cross-sectional area was significantly increased after treatment of OSAHS(both operation and CPAP), which was statistically different before and after treatment compared to the control group(P<0.01). Conclusion: ①The minimum cross-sectional area is significantly correlated with AHI and SIT90, respectively. The acoustic pharyngometry can be used to screen OSAHS patients. ②In this study, the minimum cross-sectional area under supine position is significantly smaller than that under sitting position. In addition, the minimum cross-sectional area under supine position harbored a better correlation with AHI and SIT90, which could better reflect the narrowness of pharyngeal cavity during sleep. ③Acoustic pharyngometry could be a simple, rapid and non-invasive technique that can objectively evaluate the efficacy of surgical and CPAP methods, and provided a more favorable basis for future clinical work..

Abstract
Objective:The purpose of this study was to investigate the expression level of kidney injury molecule l (KIM-1), cystatin C (Cys C) and β2-microglobulin (β2-MG) in patients with obstructive sleep apnea and hypopnea syndrome (OSAHS) disease, and to assess the clinical significance among these factors in OSAHS patients with early renal injury.Method:Total 80 OSAHS patients diagnosed by polysomnogram (PSG) in the sleep disorder lab were selected as experimental group and 15 healthy adults who were normal in PSG examinations were selected as control group. Measure the levels of Cys C, β2-MG in fasting venous blood in the morning and detecte the level of KIM-1 in midpiece urine after centrifugation by enzyme-linked immunolsorbent assay (ELISA). All data were analyzed by the SPSS13.0 statistical software.Result:①According to AHI grouping: the average levels of uric KIM-1 in the moderate and severe patients were higher than healthy control group (P< 0.01). The serum levels of Cys C and β2-MG in severe OSAHS patients were higher than healthy control group (P< 0.01). Besides, the difference of the average levels of uric KIM-1 among the mild, moderate and severe OSAHS patients was statistically significant (P< 0.01) and the serum level of Cys C and β2-MG only in severe OSAHS patients were higher than mild and moderate OSAHS patients (P< 0.01). ②According to LSaO₂ grouping: the average level of KIM-1, Cys C and β2-MG in the severe group were higher than normal control group (P< 0.01). Besides, the average level of KIM-1, Cys C and β2-MG in severe group were higher than mild and moderate groups (P< 0.01). ③KIM-1, Cys C and β2-MG were positive correlated with each other and AHI (P< 0.01). ④KIM-1, Cys C and β2-MG were negative correlated with LSaO₂ (P< 0.01). Conclusion:The urine level of KIM-1 might be a sensitive indicator in OSAHS patients with early renal damage. It was better to evaluate renal injury by AHI grouping than LSaO₂ in OSAHS patients.

Abstract
Localized surface plasmon (LSP)-enhanced ultraviolet light-emitting diodes (LEDs) based on a Au/MgO/ZnO metal/insulator/semi- conductor heterostructure were fabricated by embedding Ag nanoparticles (Ag-NPs) into MgO dielectric layer. A ~6-fold electroluminescence (EL) enhancement was achieved from the Ag-NPs decorated device. Time-resolved spectroscopy studies, as well as analogue simulation and theoretical estimation based on experimental data, reveal that the internal quantum efficiency and light extraction efficiency of the heterojunction LED are increased ~3-fold and ~2-fold, respectively, as a result of the introduction of Ag LSPs. This result indicates that the observed EL enhancement originates from a combined effect of both exciton-LSP coupling and photon-LSP coupling.

Abstract
Direct fabrication of light emitting devices on metal substrates is highly desirable due to their advantages of high thermal conductivity and light reflection. In this work, we demonstrated a feasibility of directly fabricating ZnO-based ultraviolet laser diodes on metal substrates. By introducing an anti-oxidation buffer layer, Au/MgO/ZnO metal-insulator-semiconductor heterojunction devices are successfully fabricated on the copper substrate. Electrically pumped ultraviolet random lasing was achieved from ZnO active layer. The use of copper substrate offers some merits, including lower thermal effect and higher stability of emission wavelength.

Abstract
By introducing Ag nanoclusters (NCs), ZnO-based resistive switching memory devices offer improved performance, including improved uniformity of switching parameters, and increased switching speed with excellent reliability. These Ag NCs are formed between the top-electrode (cathode) and the switching layer by an electromigration process in the initial several switching cycles. The electric field can be enhanced around Ag NCs due to their high surface curvature. The enhanced local-electric-field (LEF) results in (1) the localization of the switching site near Ag NCs, where oxygen-vacancy-based conducting filaments have a simple structure, and tend to connect Ag NCs along the LEF direction; (2) an increase in migration and recombination rates of oxygen ions and oxygen vacancies. These factors are responsible for the improvement in device performance.
