Abstract
The dosing interval for effective recombinant adeno-associated virus (rAAV)-mediated gene therapy of cystic fibrosis lung disease remains unknown. Here, we assessed the durability of rAAV2.5T-fCFTRΔR-mediated transgene expression and neutralizing antibody (NAb) responses in lungs of adult wild-type ferrets. Within the first 3 months following rAAV2.5T-fCFTRΔR delivery to the lung, CFTRΔR transgene expression declined ∼5.6-fold and then remained stable to 5 months at ∼26% the level of endogenous CFTR. rAAV NAbs in the plasma and bronchoalveolar lavage fluid (BALF) peaked at 21 days, coinciding with peak ELISpot T cell responses to AAV capsid peptides, after which both responses declined and remained stable at 4-5 months post dosing. Administration of reporter vector rAAV2.5T-gLuc (gaussia luciferase) at 5 months following rAAV2.5T-fCFTRΔR dosing gave rise to similar levels of gLuc expression in the BALF as observed in age-matched reporter-only controls, demonstrating that residual BALF NAbs were functionally insignificant. Notably, the second vector administration led to a 2.6-fold greater ELISpot T cell response and ∼2.3-fold decline in fCFTRΔR mRNA and vector genomes derived from the initial rAAV2.5T-fCFTRΔR administration, suggesting selective destruction of transduced cells from the first vector dose. These findings provide insights into humoral and cellular immune response to rAAV that may be useful for optimizing gene therapy to the cystic fibrosis lung.

Abstract
The fundamental interest in actinide chemistry, particularly for the development of thorium-based materials, is experiencing a renaissance owing to the recent and rapidly growing attention to fuel cycle reactors, radiological daughters for nuclear medicine, and efficient nuclear stockpile development. Herein, we uncover fundamental principles of thorium chemistry on the example of Th-based extended structures such as metal-organic frameworks in comparison with the discrete systems and zirconium extended analogs, demonstrating remarkable over two-and-half-year chemical stability of Th-based frameworks as a function of metal node connectivity, amount of defects, and conformational linker rigidity through comprehensive spectroscopic and crystallographic analysis as well as theoretical modeling. Despite exceptional chemical stability, we report the first example of studies focusing on the reactivity of the most chemically stable Th-based frameworks in comparison with the discrete Th-based systems such as metal-organic complexes and a cage, contrasting multicycle recyclability and selectivity (>97%) of the extended structures in comparison with the molecular compounds. Overall, the presented work not only establishes the conceptual foundation for evaluating the capabilities of Th-based materials but also represents a milestone for their multifaceted future and foreshadows their potential to shape the next era of actinide chemistry.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE There is a lack of strong evidence for use of expensive bone substitutes. This study compares perioperative data and patient reported quality-of-life outcomes across the varied types of bone graft extenders. The study analyzes the existing Quality and Outcomes Database and evaluates patient reported outcomes for 1-3 level lumbar fusion procedures comparing across different types of biologics bone graft. METHODS We retrospectively analyzed a prospectively collected data registry. Bone graft implant data were collected and grouped into the following categories: (1) Autograft with basic allograft (2) Enhanced, synthetic, or cellular allograft (3) Use of BMP. Preoperative and 1 year patient reported outcomes and perioperative data from the prospective collected registry were analyzed. RESULTS There were 384 patients included in this study. There were 168 (43.8%) patients in group 1, 133 (34.6%) patients in group 2, and 83 (21.6%) in group 3. There were no group differences in baseline or 1 year back pain, leg pain, ODI, or EQ-5D. The GLM Repeated Measures results indicate a significant difference within each of the three groups between the preoperative and postoperative measures for back pain, leg pain, ODI, and EQ-5D. The change over time was not significantly different between the groups. CONCLUSIONS Bone graft extenders are a significant contributor to the cost of lumbar fusion. This study demonstrates no difference in preoperative, and 1 year patient reported outcomes between the three groups. There was no significant difference in rate of reoperations across the three groups.

Abstract
The synthesis and structural characterization of the first sulfur-containing derivatives of the C,C-biscarborane {ortho-C2B10}2 cluster - thiol, thioether, and disulfide - are reported. The biscarboranyl dithiol (1-HS-C2B10H10)2 exhibits an exceedingly long intracluster carbon-carbon bond length of 1.858(3) Å, which is attributed to the extensive interaction between the lone pairs of the thiol groups and the unoccupied molecular orbital of the carborane cluster. The structures of the doubly deprotonated biscarboranyl dithiolate anion (1-S-C2B10H10)22- with various counter cations feature an even longer carbon-carbon bond length of 2.062(10) Å within the cluster along with a short carbon-sulfur bond of 1.660(7) Å, both indicative of significant delocalization of electron density from the sulfur atoms into the cluster.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE Cervical microendoscopic laminoforaminotomy (MELF) has been proven to be an effective, motion preserving procedure for the surgical treatment of cervical radiculopathy. Cervical 4 (C4) radiculopathies are often unrecognized by the initial evaluating physician and may be misdiagnosed as axial neck pain. In this study, we compare MELF to anterior cervical disk fusion (ACDF) for C4 radiculopathy in the largest series of minimally invasive foraminotomy for C4 radiculopathy to date. METHODS This is a single-institution retrospective chart review of 42 cases for C4 radiculopathy, 21 MELF and 21 ACDF. Primary outcome measures were length of surgery, length of hospital stay, and time to return to work. Secondary outcome measures were visual analog scale (VAS) neck pain and reoperation rate. RESULTS All patients were diagnosed with a unilateral C4 radiculopathy using magnetic resonance imaging or steroid injections. The length of surgery and length of hospital stay were significantly decreased in the MELF group compared with ACDF. VAS neck pain significantly decreased for patients in both groups, but the difference between MELF and ACDF was not statistically significant. There were no major complications. No patient underwent revision at the index level or adjacent levels in the MELF group. CONCLUSIONS We demonstrate that C4 radiculopathy can be identified with appropriate history, physical examination, and targeted nerve root injections. When identified, these radiculopathies that fail conservative therapy can be effectively treated with cervical microendoscopic laminoforaminotomy, with comparable outcomes to ACDF. The length of surgery and length of stay are reduced when compared with ACDF.

Abstract
The forthcoming generation of materials, including artificial muscles, recyclable and healable systems, photochromic heterogeneous catalysts, or tailorable supercapacitors, relies on the fundamental concept of rapid switching between two or more discrete forms in the solid state. Herein, we report a breakthrough in the "speed limit" of photochromic molecules on the example of sterically-demanding spiropyran derivatives through their integration within solvent-free confined space, allowing for engineering of the photoresponsive moiety environment and tailoring their photoisomerization rates. The presented conceptual approach realized through construction of the spiropyran environment results in ~1000 times switching enhancement even in the solid state compared to its behavior in solution, setting a record in the field of photochromic compounds. Moreover, integration of two distinct photochromic moieties in the same framework provided access to a dynamic range of rates as well as complementary switching in the material's optical profile, uncovering a previously inaccessible pathway for interstate rapid photoisomerization.

Abstract
We report on a dendronized bis-urea macrocycle 1 self-assembling via a cooperative mechanism into two-dimensional (2D) nanosheets formed solely by alternated urea-urea hydrogen bonding interactions. The pure macrocycle self-assembles in bulk into one-dimensional liquid-crystalline columnar phases. In contrast, its self-assembly mode drastically changes in CHCl3 or tetrachloroethane, leading to 2D hydrogen-bonded networks. Theoretical calculations, complemented by previously reported crystalline structures, indicate that the 2D assembly is formed by a brick-like hydrogen bonding pattern between bis-urea macrocycles. This assembly is promoted by the swelling of the trisdodecyloxyphenyl groups upon solvation, which frustrates, due to steric effects, the formation of the thermodynamically more stable columnar macrocycle stacks. This work proposes a new design strategy to access 2D supramolecular polymers by means of a single non-covalent interaction motif, which is of great interest for materials development.

Abstract
A series of transition-metal-containing rare earth thiosilicates, RE3TM0.5SiS7 (RE = Gd-Yb; TM = Fe, Co, Ni), was obtained via flux crystal growth utilizing the boron chalcogen mixture (BCM) method. The series includes the first reported ytterbium-containing thiosilicates crystallizing in this structure type. The thiosilicates crystallize in the hexagonal crystal system in space group P63. The use of the BCM method to synthesize phase-pure samples of the title compounds for magnetic measurements is discussed, highlighting how the approach avoids some of the difficulties that plague typical chalcogenide syntheses. Magnetic measurements demonstrate that some of the compounds order antiferromagnetically and exhibit transition temperatures below 15 K.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Ambulatory surgery centers (ASCs) have emerged as an alternative setting for surgical care as part of the national effort to lower health care costs. The literature regarding the safety of minimally invasive transforaminal lumbar interbody fusion (MIS TLIF) in the ASC setting is limited to few small case series. OBJECTIVE To assess the safety and efficacy of MIS TLIF performed in the ASC vs inpatient hospital setting. METHODS A total of 775 patients prospectively enrolled in the Quality Outcomes Database undergoing single-level MIS TLIF at a single ASC (100) or the inpatient hospital setting (675) were compared. Propensity matching generated 200 patients for analysis (100 per cohort). Demographic data, resource utilization, patient-reported outcome measures (PROMs), and patient satisfaction were assessed. RESULTS There were no significant differences regarding baseline demographic data, clinical history, or comorbidities after propensity matching. Only 1 patient required inpatient transfer from the ASC because of intractable pain. All other patients were discharged home within 23 hours of surgery. The rates of 90-day readmission (2.0%) and reoperation (0%) were equivalent between groups. Both groups experienced significant improvements in all PROMs (Oswestry Disability Index, EuroQol-5D, back pain, and leg pain) at 3 months that were maintained at 1 year. PROMs did not differ between groups at any time point. Patient satisfaction was similar between groups at 3 and 12 months after surgery. CONCLUSION In carefully selected patients, MIS TLIF may be performed safely in the ASC setting with no statistically significant difference in safety or efficacy in comparison with the inpatient setting.

Abstract
Cooperative behavior and orthogonal responses of two classes of coordinatively integrated photochromic molecules towards distinct external stimuli were demonstrated on the first example of a photo-thermo-responsive hierarchical platform. Synergetic and orthogonal responses to temperature and excitation wavelength are achieved by confining the stimuli-responsive moieties within a metal-organic framework (MOF), leading to the preparation of a novel photo-thermo-responsive spiropyran-diarylethene based material. Synergistic behavior of two photoswitches enables the study of stimuli-responsive resonance energy transfer as well as control of the photoinduced charge transfer processes, milestones required to advance optoelectronics development. Spectroscopic studies in combination with theoretical modeling revealed a nonlinear effect on the material electronic structure arising from the coordinative integration of photoresponsive molecules with distinct photoisomerization mechanisms. Thus, the reported work covers multivariable facets of not only fundamental aspects of photoswitch cooperativity, but also provides a pathway to modulate photophysics and electronics of multidimensional functional materials exhibiting thermo-photochromism.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Anterior cervical discectomy and fusion (ACDF) and posterior cervical foraminotomy (PCF) are the most common surgical approaches for medically refractory cervical radiculopathy. Rigorous cost-effectiveness studies comparing ACDF and PCF are lacking. OBJECTIVE To assess the cost-utility of ACDF vs PCF performed in the ambulatory surgery center setting for Medicare and privately insured patients at 1-year follow-up. METHODS A total of 323 patients who underwent 1-level ACDF (201) or PCF (122) at a single ambulatory surgery center were compared. Propensity matching generated 110 pairs (220 patients) for analysis. Demographic data, resource utilization, patient-reported outcome measures, and quality-adjusted life-years were assessed. Direct costs (1-year resource use × unit costs based on Medicare national allowable payment amounts) and indirect costs (missed workdays × average US daily wage) were recorded. Incremental cost-effectiveness ratios were calculated. RESULTS Perioperative safety, 90-day readmission, and 1-year reoperation rates were similar between groups. Both groups experienced significant improvements in all patient-reported outcome measures at 3 months that was maintained at 12 months. The ACDF cohort had a significantly higher preoperative Neck Disability Index and a significantly greater improvement in health-state utility (ie, quality-adjusted life-years gained) at 12 months. ACDF was associated with significantly higher total costs at 1 year for both Medicare ($11 744) and privately insured ($21 228) patients. The incremental cost-effectiveness ratio for ACDF was $184 654 and $333 774 for Medicare and privately insured patients, respectively, reflecting poor cost-utility. CONCLUSION Single-level ACDF may not be cost-effective in comparison with PCF for surgical management of unilateral cervical radiculopathy.

Abstract
Geometric magnetic frustration arises when the geometry of a structure prevents the simultaneous fulfillment of nearest-neighbor antiferromagnetic interactions and is commonly observed in lattices that exhibit a triangular topology, such as those found in the pyrochlore structure. Via a mild hydrothermal route, we have synthesized seven quaternary β-pyrochlore-related fluorides AxM2+xM3+(2-x)F6 (A = Cs and Rb; M2+ = Co2+, Ni2+, and Zn2+; and M3+ = V3+ and Fe3+). Crystal structures and compositions were determined using a combination of single-crystal X-ray diffraction and energy-dispersive spectroscopy. After adjusting the reaction conditions, phase-pure products of AxM2+xM3+(2-x)F6 were obtained. The magnetic susceptibility and isothermal magnetization data for all seven compounds were collected to interpret the magnetic behavior, which ranged from paramagnetic to antiferromagnetic with and without a ferromagnetic component. We found that the magnetic behavior of the AxM2+xV3+(2-x)F6 pyrochlore structures strongly depends on the presence or absence of unpaired electrons on the M2+ position. The titled pyrochlore compounds, with the exception of the Zn-analogue, can be considered frustrated materials, with frustration indices in the range of 6-13.

Abstract
Mild hydrothermal synthesis was employed to grow high-quality single crystals of ternary fluoridohafnates at low temperatures. The series of new materials was characterized using single-crystal X-ray diffraction, and the crystal structures of AHfF6 (A = Mg and Sr), A2HfF8 (A = Ba and Pb), Ca5Hf3F22, and Cd2HfF8(H2O)6 are discussed herein. Although some material compositions have similar stoichiometries, all of the compositions adopt different structural motifs. A comparison of the crystal structures and synthesis techniques of ternary fluoridohafnates and ternary fluoridozirconates is also reported, and the impact of the subtle changes of synthesis conditions on overall structures is discussed.

Abstract
Single crystals of A3MF6 (A = Rb, Cs; M = Al, Ga) were grown from mixed alkali chloride/fluoride fluxes in sealed silver tubes. For Cs3AlF6 and Cs3GaF6, two polymorphs were observed at room temperature: m-Cs3MF6 and o-Cs3MF6. For the two Rb containing compositions, only one room temperature polymorph was observed: o-Rb3AlF6 and t-Rb3GaF6, respectively. Simultaneous TGA/DSC and high temperature SCXRD/PXRD were used to study the high temperature behavior of A3MF6. The compounds of all four compositions were found to undergo structure transitions upon heating to the same cubic structure type, c-A3MF6.

Abstract
Stabilizing nitrogen pnictogen bond interactions were measured using molecular rotors. Intramolecular C=O•••N interactions were formed in the bond rotation transition states which lowered the rotational barriers and increased the rates of rotation, as measured by EXSY NMR. The pnictogen interaction energies show a very strong correlation with the positive electrostatic potential on nitrogen, which was consistent with a strong electrostatic component. In contrast, the NBO and pyramidalization analyses show no correlation, suggesting that the orbital-orbital components is minor. The strongest C=O•••N pnictogen interactions were comparable to n to π (C=O•••C=O) interactions and were stronger than C=O•••Ph interactions, when measured using the same N-phenylimide rotor system. The ability of the nitrogen pnictogen interactions to stabilize transition states and enhance kinetic processes demonstrates their potential in catalysis and reaction design.

Abstract
Nine new rare earth magnesium-containing thiosilicates of the formula RE3Mg0.5SiS7 (Ln = Ce, Pr, Nd, Sm, Gd, Tb, Dy, Ho, Er) were synthesized in an alkali halide flux using the boron chalcogen mixture (BCM) method. Crystals of high quality were produced, and their structures were determined by single-crystal X-ray diffraction. The compounds crystallize in the hexagonal crystal system in the P63 space group. Phase pure powders of the compounds were used for magnetic susceptibility measurements and for second-harmonic generation (SHG) measurements. Magnetic measurements indicate that Ce3Mg0.5SiS7, Sm3Mg0.5SiS7, and Dy3Mg0.5SiS7 exhibit paramagnetic behavior with a negative Weiss temperature over the 2-300 K temperature range. SHG measurements of La3Mg0.5SiS7 demonstrated SHG activity with an efficiency of 0.16 times the standard potassium dihydrogen phosphate (KDP).

Abstract
As part of our exploration of plutonium-containing materials as potential nuclear waste forms, we report the first extended structure Pu(V) material and the first Pu(V) borate. Crystals of Na2(PuO2)(BO3) were grown out of mixed hydroxide/boric acid flux and found to crystallize in the orthorhombic space group Cmcm with lattice parameters of a = 9.9067(4) Å, b = 6.5909(2) Å, and c = 6.9724(2) Å. Na2(PuO2)(BO3) adopts a layered structure in which layers of PuO2(BO3)2- are separated by sodium cations. Plutonium is found in a pentagonal bipyramidal coordination environment, with axial Pu(V)-O plutonyl bond lengths of 1.876(3) Å and equatorial Pu-O bond lengths ranging from 2.325(5) to 2.467(3) Å. We find that the Pu(V)-O plutonyl bond lengths are approximately 0.1 Å longer than the reported Pu(VI)-O plutonyl bond lengths and shorter by approximately 0.033 Å than the corresponding U(V) uranyl bond lengths. Raman spectroscopy on single crystals was used to determine the PuO2+ plutonyl stretching and the equatorial breathing mode frequencies of the pentagonal bipyramidal coordination environment around plutonium. Density functional theory calculations were used to calculate the Raman spectrum to help identify the Raman bands at 690 and 630 cm-1 as corresponding to the plutonyl(V) ν1 stretch and the equatorial PuO5 breathing mode, respectively. UV-vis measurements on single crystals indicate semiconducting behavior with a band gap of ∼2.60 eV.

Abstract
Herein, we probe the hydrogen bond-driven self-assembly of a triphenylamine (TPA) bis-urea macrocycle in the presence and absence of guests. Comprised of methylene urea-bridged TPAs with exterior tridodecyloxy benzene solubilizing groups, the macrocycle exhibits concentration-dependent aggregate formation in THF and H2O/THF mixtures as characterized by 1H NMR and DOSY experiments. Its assembly processes were further probed by temperature-dependent UV/Vis and fluorescence spectroscopy. Upon heating, UV/Vis spectra exhibit a hypsochromic shift in the λmax, while fluorescence spectra show an increase in emission intensity. Conversely, the protected macrocycle that lacks hydrogen bond donors demonstrates no significant change. Thermodynamic analysis indicates a cooperative self-assembly pathway with distinct nucleation and elongation regimes. The morphology and structure of the aggregate were elucidated by dynamic light scattering, atomic force microscopy, scanning and transmission electron microscopy. Variable temperature emission spectra were utilized to monitor the impact of guests, such as diphenylacetylene, that can be bound in the columnar channels. The findings suggest that the elongation of assemblies is influenced by the presence of these guests. In comparison, diphenyl sulfoxide, likely functioning as a chain stopper, limited the assembly size. These studies suggest that judicious selection of (co)monomers may modulate the function and utility of these supramolecular systems.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE Enhanced Recovery After Surgery (ERAS) is a multidisciplinary approach to surgical care that aims to improve outcomes and reduce costs. Its application to spine surgery has been increasing in recent years, with a notable focus on lumbar fusion. This study describes the development, implementation, and outcomes of the first ERAS pathway for ambulatory spine surgery and the largest ambulatory minimally invasive transforaminal lumbar interbody fusion (MIS TLIF) series to date. METHODS A comprehensive protocol for ambulatory lumbar fusion is described, including patient selection criteria, a multimodal analgesia regimen, and discharge assessment. Consecutive patients undergoing 1- or 2-level MIS TLIF using the described protocol at a single ambulatory surgery center (ASC) over a five-year period were queried. RESULTS A total of 215 patients underwent ambulatory MIS TLIF over the study period. There were no intraoperative or immediate postoperative complications. All but one patient (99.5%) were discharged home from the ASC. Almost three-quarters (71.2%) were discharged on the day of surgery. Thirty- and 90-day readmission rates were 1.4% and 2.8%, respectively. Only one readmission (0.5%) was for intractable back pain. There were no reoperations or mortalities within 90 days of surgery. CONCLUSIONS MIS TLIF can be performed safely in a freestanding ambulatory surgery center with minimal perioperative and short-term morbidity. The addition of comprehensive ERAS protocols to the ambulatory setting can promote the transition of fusion procedures to this lower cost environment in an effort to provide higher value care.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE Ambulatory surgery centers (ASCs) have become an increasingly attractive setting for spine surgery in recent decades. Although posterior cervical foraminotomy (PCF) is widely performed in ASCs, there are no studies supporting the safety of this practice. We aimed to demonstrate the feasibility and safety of microendoscopic (MED)-PCF in a large cohort of patients at a freestanding ASC. METHODS Consecutive patients undergoing MED-PCF for unilateral cervical radiculopathy at a single freestanding ASC from January 2013 to December 2020 were queried. Standard demographic and perioperative data were collected. Outcomes included need for inpatient transfer, perioperative complications, 30-day readmission, 30-day reoperation, and clinical improvement according to the Odom criteria. RESULTS A total of 1106 patients underwent MED-PCF during the study period. Mean age was 53.3 ± 10.3 years. Most patients underwent decompression at C5-6 (31.4%) or C6-7 (51.9%). Approximately 10% underwent surgery at multiple levels. Mean operative time was 40.0 ± 16.4 minutes. There were no intraoperative or immediate postoperative complications. All patients were discharged home within a few hours of surgery. The rates of 30-day readmission (0.81%) and reoperation (0.36%) were exceedingly low. Nearly 3 quarters of patients (73.7%) achieved a good or excellent clinical outcome (73.7%) according to the Odom criteria. CONCLUSIONS MED-PCF can be performed in a freestanding ASC with exceedingly low rates of perioperative complications and short-term readmission or reoperation. Our findings support the ongoing migration of PCF from the hospital to the ambulatory setting. Future studies assessing patient-reported outcomes and long-term reoperation rates are necessary.

Abstract
A novel series of heterometallic f-block-frameworks including the first examples of transuranic heterometallic 238 U/239 Pu-metal-organic frameworks (MOFs) and a novel monometallic 239 Pu-analog are reported. In combination with theoretical calculations, we probed the kinetics and thermodynamics of heterometallic actinide(An)-MOF formation and reported the first value of a U-to-Th transmetallation rate. We concluded that formation of uranyl species could be a driving force for solid-state metathesis. Density of states near the Fermi edge, enthalpy of formation, band gap, proton affinity, and thermal/chemical stability were probed as a function of metal ratios. Furthermore, we achieved 97 % of the theoretical maximum capacity for An-integration. These studies shed light on fundamental aspects of actinide chemistry and also foreshadow avenues for the development of emerging classes of An-containing materials, including radioisotope thermoelectric generators or metalloradiopharmaceuticals.

Abstract
Abstract
Introduction
Many people with parkinsonism require care as the disease progresses with much provided unpaid by family and friends. Caring for someone can have a negative impact on physical and psychosocial wellbeing. Caregiver burden can impact ability to continue this role, which can precipitate hospitalisation or institutionalisation of the recipient.
Methods
In this single-site study, primary, informal caregivers, defined as those providing any care or support, were enrolled alongside the person with parkinsonism or individually. Self-reported questionnaires included the 22-item Zarit Burden Interview (ZBI), which can range from 0-88, with higher scores representing greater burden. Linear regression was used to explore the association between recipient characteristics/need and caregiver burden.
Results
Of 1,032 eligible patients approached, 813 participants indicated whether they had an informal caregiver (708) or not (105). 376 caregivers consented (53.1%), of whom 321 have returned questionnaires, with patient data available for 296. The median age of caregivers was 73.0 (range 27.0- 91.1 years), 237 (73.8%) female. 274 (85.4%) were the spouse/partner of the patient. 215 (67.0%) were the sole caregiver. The median time per week spent caring was 21 hours (interquartile range 7, 41 hours). 18 (5.6%) of caregivers provided 24-hour care daily and 113 (35.2%) had provided support for over 5 years. Median ZBI score was 17, (interquartile range 7-29). The care recipient’s duration of parkinsonism was associated with higher burden score (0.38 increase per year of parkinsonism; 95% CI 0.07, 0.69; p value 0.015), as was the time per week spent caring (0.16 increase for each additional hour; 95% CI 0.11, 0.20; p value <0.0001).
Conclusions
Many informal caregivers in this study were the sole caregiver and many were themselves older adults. Burden increased with increasing duration of parkinsonism and as time spent caring increased. This highlights the ongoing need to improve support for this group.

Abstract
Confinement-imposed photophysics was probed for novel stimuli-responsive hydrazone-based compounds demonstrating a conceptual difference in their behavior within 2D versus 3D porous matrices for the first time. The challenges associated with photoswitch isomerization arising from host interactions with photochromic compounds in 2D scaffolds could be overcome in 3D materials. Solution-like photoisomerization rate constants were realized for sterically demanding hydrazone derivatives in the solid state through their coordinative immobilization in 3D scaffolds. According to steady-state and time-resolved photophysical measurements and theoretical modeling, this approach provides access to hydrazone-based materials with fast photoisomerization kinetics in the solid state. Fast isomerization of integrated hydrazone derivatives allows for probing and tailoring resonance energy transfer (ET) processes as a function of excitation wavelength, providing a novel pathway for ET modulation.

Abstract
Comparison of defect-controlled leaching-kinetics modulation of metal-organic frameworks (MOFs) and porous functionalized silica-based materials was performed on the example of a radionuclide and radionuclide surrogate for the first time, revealing an unprecedented readsorption phenomenon. On a series of zirconium-based MOFs as model systems, we demonstrated the ability to capture and retain >99% of the transuranic 241Am radionuclide after 1 week of storage. We report the possibility of tailoring radionuclide release kinetics in MOFs through framework defects as a function of postsynthetically installed organic ligands including cation-chelating crown ether-based linkers. Based on comprehensive analysis using spectroscopy (EXAFS, UV-vis, FTIR, and NMR), X-ray crystallography (single crystal and powder), and theoretical calculations (nine kinetics models and structure simulations), we demonstrated the synergy of radionuclide integration methods, topological restrictions, postsynthetic scaffold modification, and defect engineering. This combination is inaccessible in any other material and highlights the advantages of using well-defined frameworks for gaining fundamental knowledge necessary for the advancement of actinide-based material development, providing a pathway for addressing upcoming challenges in the nuclear waste administration sector.

Abstract
Herein, we report structural, computational, and conductivity studies on urea-directed self-assembled iodinated triphenylamine (TPA) derivatives. Despite numerous reports of conductive TPAs, the challenges of correlating their solid-state assembly with charge transport properties hinder the efficient design of new materials. In this work, we compare the assembled structures of a methylene urea bridged dimer of di-iodo TPA (1) and the corresponding methylene urea di-iodo TPA monomer (2) with a di-iodo mono aldehyde (3) control. These modifications lead to needle shaped crystals for 1 and 2 that are organized by urea hydrogen bonding, π⋯π stacking, I⋯I, and I⋯π interactions as determined by SC-XRD, Hirshfeld surface analysis, and X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy (XPS). The long needle shaped crystals were robust enough to measure the conductivity by two contact probe methods with 2 exhibiting higher conductivity values (∼6 × 10-7 S cm-1) compared to 1 (1.6 × 10-8 S cm-1). Upon UV-irradiation, 1 formed low quantities of persistent radicals with the simple methylurea 2 displaying less radical formation. The electronic properties of 1 were further investigated using valence band XPS, which revealed a significant shift in the valence band upon UV irradiation (0.5-1.9 eV), indicating the potential of these materials as dopant free p-type hole transporters. The electronic structure calculations suggest that the close packing of TPA promotes their electronic coupling and allows effective charge carrier transport. Our results show that ionic additives significantly improve the conductivity up to ∼2.0 × 10-6 S cm-1 in thin films, enabling their implementation in functional devices such as perovskite or solid-state dye sensitized solar cells.

Abstract
New zwitterionic dirhenium carbonyl complexes containing ammonioethenyl and phosphonioethenyl ligands have been synthesized and studied. The reaction of Re2(CO)10 with C2H2 and Me3NO yielded the dirhenium complex Re2(CO)9(NMe3) (6) and the new zwitterionic complex Re2(CO)9[η1-E-2-CH═CH(NMe3)] (7). Compound 6 was characterized structurally and was found to have a NMe3 ligand in an equatorial coordination site cis to a long Re-Re single bond, Re-Re = 3.0938(2) Å. Compound 7 can be obtained from the reaction of 6 with ethyne (C2H2) formally by the insertion of ethyne into the Re-N bond to the NMe3 ligand. Compound 7 contains a 2-trimethylammonioethenyl ligand, -CH═CH(+NMe3), that is formally a zwitterion having a positive charge on the nitrogen atom and a negative charge on the terminal carbon atom. When coordinated to rhenium by the terminal ethenyl carbon atom, the negative charge on the -CH═CH(+NMe3) carbon atom is formally transferred to the rhenium atom. The reaction of Re2(CO)10 with C2H2 and NEt3 in the presence of Me3NO yielded the new dirhenium complex Re2(CO)9[η1-E-2-CH═CH(NEt3)] (8) together with some 6 and 7. Compound 8 is structurally similar to 7, but it contains a NEt3 group in the ammonioethenyl ligand in the place of the NMe3 group in 7. Reactions of 7 with PMePh2 and PPh3 yielded the zwitterionic 2-arylphosphonioethenyl-coordinated dirhenium carbonyl complexes, Re2(CO)9[η1-E-2-CH═CH(PPh2Me)] (9a) and Re2(CO)9[η1-E-2-CH═CH(PPh3)] (9b), and the zwitterionic 1-phosphonioethenyl ligand in the dirhenium carbonyl complexes, Re2(CO)9[η1-1-C(PPh2Me)(═CH2)] (10a), Re2(CO)8[μ-η2-1-C(PPh2Me)(═CH2)] (11a), and Re2(CO)8[[μ-η2-1-C(PPh3)(CH2)] (11b). Compound 10a was converted to 11a and the new compound Re2(CO)7(μ-H)[μ-η2-1-(CH2C)P(Ph)(Me)(o-C6H4)], (12) by decarbonylation using Me3NO. Compound 12 contains an ortho-metalated phenyl ring. The new products 6,7, 8, 9b, 10a, 11a, 11b and 12 were characterized structurally by single-crystal X-ray diffraction analyses.

Abstract
A series of alkali metal rare-earth borates were prepared via high-temperature flux crystal growth, and their structures were characterized by single crystal X-ray diffraction (SXRD). Na3Ln(BO3)2 (Ln = La-Lu) crystallize in the monoclinic space group P21/n, the potassium series K3Ln(BO3)2 (Ln = La-Tb) crystallize in the orthorhombic space group Pnma, while the Ln = Dy, Ho, Tm, Yb analogues crystallize in the orthorhombic space group Pnnm. To demonstrate the generality of this synthetic technique, high-entropy oxide (HEO) compositions K3Nd0.15(1)Eu0.20(1)Gd0.20(1)Dy0.22(1)Ho0.23(1)(BO3)2 and K3Nd0.26(1)Eu0.29(1)Ho0.22(1)Tm0.14(1)Yb0.10(1)(BO3)2 were obtained in single crystal form. Radiation damage investigations determined that these borates have a high radiation damage tolerance. To assess whether trivalent actinide analogues of Na3Ln(BO3)2 and K3Ln(BO3)2 would be stable, density functional theory was used to calculate their enthalpies of formation, which are favorable.

Abstract
Gas-phase ion-mobility spectrometry provides a unique platform to study the effect of mobile charge(s) or charge location on collisional cross section and ion separation. Here, we evaluate the effects of cation/anion adduction in a series of xylene and pyridyl macrocycles that contain ureas and thioureas. We explore how zinc binding led to unexpected deprotonation of the thiourea macrocyclic host in positive polarity ionization and subsequently how charge isomerism due to cation (zinc metal) and anion (chloride counterion) adduction or proton competition among acceptors can affect the measured collisional cross sections in helium and nitrogen buffer gases. Our approach uses synthetic chemistry to design macrocycle targets and a combination of ion-mobility spectrometry mass spectrometry experiments and quantum mechanics calculations to characterize their structural properties. We demonstrate that charge isomerism significantly improves ion-mobility resolution and allows for determination of the metal binding mechanism in metal-inclusion macrocyclic complexes. Additionally, charge isomers can be populated in molecules where individual protons are shared between acceptors. In these cases, interactions via drift gas collisions magnify the conformational differences. Finally, for the macrocyclic systems we report here, charge isomers are observed in both helium and nitrogen drift gases with similar resolution. The separation factor does not simply increase with increasing drift gas polarizability. Our study sheds light on important properties of charge isomerism and offers strategies to take advantage of this phenomenon in analytical separations.

Abstract
We report three novel Nb-containing oxide-fluorides, Cs10(Nb2O2F9)3F, Cs9.4K0.6(Nb2O2F9)3F, and Cs10(Nb2O2F9)3Cl, which were prepared as high-quality single crystals via a HF-based mild hydrothermal route. The compounds all crystallize in the trigonal crystal system with space group P3̅m1. All three compositions form the same framework structure consisting of isolated [Nb2O2F9]3- dimers that create hexagonal channels that are occupied by disordered halide species. Upon excitation by UV light at room temperature, these compounds display broad band emission with a maximum at 440 nm for Cs10(Nb2O2F9)3F. The broad band emission of these compounds is attributed to the charge-transfer transitions of Nb-O bonds within the [Nb2O2F9]3- dimers. All three compounds scintillate blue under X-ray irradiation. Radioluminescence (RL) measurements performed on Cs10(Nb2O2F9)3F demonstrate that the RL emission intensity decreases with increasing temperature and that the integrated RL emission (300-750 nm) is 4% of Bi4Ge3O12 (BGO) powder. Thermogravimetric analysis confirms that Cs10(Nb2O2F9)3F has excellent thermal stability up to 600 °C and no structural phase transition is observed prior to sample decomposition.

Abstract
Tuning metal oxidation states in metal-organic framework (MOF) nodes by switching between two discrete linker photoisomers via an external stimulus was probed for the first time. On the examples of three novel photochromic copper-based frameworks, we demonstrated the capability of switching between +2 and +1 oxidation states, on demand. In addition to crystallographic methods used for material characterization, the role of the photochromic moieties for tuning the oxidation state was probed via conductivity measurements, cyclic voltammetry, and electron paramagnetic resonance, X-ray photoelectron, and diffuse reflectance spectroscopies. We confirmed the reversible photoswitching activity including photoisomerization rate determination of spiropyran- and diarylethene-containing linkers in extended frameworks, resulting in changes in metal oxidation states as a function of alternating excitation wavelengths. To elucidate the switching process between two states, the photoisomerization quantum yield of photochromic MOFs was determined for the first time. Overall, the introduced noninvasive concept of metal oxidation state modulation on the examples of stimuli-responsive MOFs foreshadows a new pathway for alternation of material properties toward targeted applications.

Abstract
The solvothermal synthesis, structure determination and optical characterization of five new metastable halometallate compounds, [1,10-phenH][Pb3.5I8] (1), [1,10-phenH2][Pb5I12]·(H2O) (2), [1,10-phen][Pb2I4] (3), [1,10-phen]2[Pb5Br10] (4) and [1,10-phenH][SbI4]·(H2O) (5), are reported. The materials exhibit rich structural diversity and exhibit structural dimensionalities that include 1D chains, 2D sheets and 3D frameworks. The optical spectra of these materials are consistent with bandgaps ranging from 2.70 to 3.44 eV. We show that the optical behavior depends on the structural dimensionality of the reported materials, which are potential candidates for semiconductor applications.

Abstract
Efficient delivery of reactive and toxic gaseous reagents to organic reactions was studied using metal-organic frameworks (MOFs). Simultaneous cargo vehicle and catalytic capabilities of several MOFs were probed for the first time using the examples of aromatization, aminocarbonylation, and carbonylative Suzuki-Miyaura coupling reactions. These reactions highlight that MOFs can serve a dual role as a gas cargo vehicle and a catalyst, leading to product formation with yields similar to reactions employing pure gases. Furthermore, the MOFs can be recycled without sacrificing product yield, while simultaneously maintaining crystallinity. The reported findings were supported crystallographically and spectroscopically (e.g., diffuse reflectance infrared Fourier transform spectroscopy), foreshadowing a pathway for the development of multifunctional MOF-based reagent-catalyst cargo vessels for reactive reagents, as an attractive alternative to the use of toxic pure gases or gas generators.

Abstract
The synthesis of well-defined heterometallic complexes remains a frontier challenge in inorganic chemistry. We report an approach that relies on the sequential insertion of electrophilic metal fragments into electron-rich Ru-B bonds of the η2-BB-carboryne complex (POBBOP)Ru(CO)2 [POBBOP = 1,7-OP(iPr)2-m-2,6-dehydrocarborane]. Utilizing this synthetic strategy, bimetallic (POBBOP)(Ru)(CO)2[Pd(PtBu3)] and trimetallic (POBBOP)(Ru)(CO)2[Pd(PtBu3)](CuBr) complexes were selectively prepared. Structural and theoretical analysis of the features of chemical bonding within Ru-B-B-Cu and Ru-B-B-Pd fragments is presented.

Abstract
Absorption of electronic acceptors in the accessible channels of an assembled triphenylamine (TPA) bis-urea macrocycle 1 enabled the study of electron transfer from the walls of the TPA framework to the encapsulated guests. The TPA host is isoskeletal in all host-guest structures analyzed with guests 2,1,3-benzothiadiazole, 2,5-dichlorobenzoquinone and I2 loading in single-crystal-to-single-crystal transformations. Analysis of the crystal structures highlights how the spatial proximity and orientation of the TPA host and the entrapped guests influence their resulting photophysical properties and allow direct comparison of the different donor-acceptor complexes. Diffuse reflectance spectroscopy shows that upon complex formation 1·2,5-dichlorobenzoquinone exhibits a charge transfer (CT) transition. Whereas, the 1·2,1,3-benzothiadiazole complex undergoes a photoinduced electron transfer (PET) upon irradiation with 365 nm LEDs. The CT absorptions were also identified with the aid of time dependent density functional theory (TD-DFT) calculations. Cyclic voltammetry experiments show that 2,1,3-benzothiadiazole undergoes reversible reduction within the host-guest complex. Moreover, the optical band gaps of the host 1·2,5-dichlorobenzoquinone (1.66 eV), and host 1·2,1,3-benzothiadiazole (2.15 eV) complexes are significantly smaller as compared to the free host 1 material (3.19 eV). Overall, understanding this supramolecular electron transfer strategy should pave the way towards designing lower band gap inclusion complexes.

Abstract
A series of new ternary lanthanide-based chlorides, Cs2EuCl5(H2O)10, Cs7LnCl10(H2O)8 (Ln = Gd or Ho), Cs10Tb2Cl17(H2O)14(H3O), Cs2DyCl5(H2O)6, Cs8Er3Cl17(H2O)25, and Cs5Ln2Cl11(H2O)17 (Ln = Y, Lu, or Yb), were prepared as single crystals via a facile solution route. The compounds with compositions of Cs7LnCl10(H2O)8 (Ln = Gd or Ho) and Cs5Ln2Cl11(H2O)17 (Ln = Y, Lu, or Yb) crystallize in a monoclinic crystal system in space groups C2 and P21/c, respectively, whereas Cs2EuCl5(H2O)10, Cs10Tb2Cl17(H2O)14(H3O), and Cs8Er3Cl17(H2O)25 crystallize in orthorhombic space groups Pbcm, Pnma, and P212121, respectively. Cs2DyCl5(H2O)6 crystallizes with triclinic symmetry in space group P1̅. All of these compounds exhibit complex three-dimensional structures built of isolated lanthanide polyhedral units that are linked together by extensive hydrogen bonds. Cs2EuCl5(H2O)10 and Cs10Tb2Cl17(H2O)14(H3O) luminesce upon irradiation with 375 nm ultraviolet light, emitting intense orange-red and green color, respectively, and Cs10Tb2Cl17(H2O)14(H3O) scintillates when exposed to X-rays. Radioluminescence (RL) measurement of Cs10Tb2Cl17(H2O)14(H3O) in powder form shows that the RL emission integrated in the range of 300-750 nm was ∼16% of BGO powder.

Abstract
Carbon atom functionalization via generation of carbanions is the cornerstone of carborane chemistry. In this work, we report the synthesis and structural characterization of free ortho-carboranyl [C2B10H11]-, a three-dimensional inorganic analog of the elusive phenyl anion that features a "naked" carbanion center. The first example of a stable, discrete C(H)-deprotonated carborane anion was isolated as a completely separated ion pair with a crown ether-encapsulated potassium cation. An analogous approach led to the isolation and structural characterization of a doubly deprotonated 1,1'-bis(o-carborane) anion [C2B10H10]2 2-, which is the first example of a discrete molecular dicarbanion. These reactive carbanions are key intermediates in carbon vertex chemistry of carborane clusters.

Abstract
We report metal-free bond activation by the carboranyl diphosphine 1-PtBu2-2-PiPr2-C2B10H10. This main group element system contains basic binding sites and possesses the ability to cycle through two-electron redox states. The reported reactions with selected main group hydrides and alcohols occur via the formal oxidation of the phosphine groups and concomitant reduction of the boron cage. These transformations, which are driven by the cooperation between the electron-donating exohedral substituents and the electron-accepting cluster, differ from those of "regular" phosphines and are reminiscent of oxidative addition to transition metal centers, thus representing a new approach to metal-free bond activation.

Abstract
Unprecedented one-step C[double bond, length as m-dash]C bond cleavage leading to opening of the buckybowl (π-bowl), that could provide access to carbon-rich structures with previously inaccessible topologies, is reported; highlighting the possibility to implement drastically different synthetic routes to π-bowls in contrast to conventional ones applied for polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons. Through theoretical modeling, we evaluated the mechanistic pathways feasible for π-bowl planarization and factors that could affect such a transformation including strain and released energies. Through employment of Marcus theory, optical spectroscopy, and crystallographic analysis, we estimated the possibility of charge transfer and electron coupling between "open" corannulene and a strong electron acceptor such as 7,7,8,8-tetracyanoquinodimethane. Alternative to a one-pot solid-state corannulene "unzipping" route, we reported a nine-step solution-based approach for preparation of novel planar "open" corannulene-based derivatives in which electronic structures and photophysical profiles were estimated through the energies and isosurfaces of the frontier natural transition orbitals.
