Abstract
The application of ozone (O3) disinfection has been hindered by its low solubility in water and the formation of disinfection by-products (DBPs). In this study, capacitive disinfection is applied as a pre-treatment for O3 oxidation, in which manganese dioxide with a rambutan-like hollow spherical structure is used as the electrode to increase the charge density on the electrode surface. When a voltage is applied, the negative-charged microbes are attracted to the electrodes and killed by electrical interactions. The contact between microbes and capacitive electrodes leads to changes in cell permeability and burst of reactive oxygen species, thereby promoting the diffusion of O3 into the cells. After O3 penetrates the cell membrane, it can directly attack the cytoplasmic constituents, accelerating fatal and irreversible damage to pathogens. As a result, the performance of the capacitance-O3 process is proved better than the direct sum of the two individual process efficiencies. The design of capacitance-O3 system is beneficial to reduce the ozone dosage and DBPs with a broader inactivation spectrum, which is conducive to the application of ozone in primary water disinfection.

Abstract
The advancement of atomically precise dinuclear heterogeneous catalysts holds great potential in achieving efficient catalytic ozonation performance and contributes to the understanding of synergy mechanisms during reaction conditions. Herein, we demonstrate a "ship-in-a-bottle and pyrolysis" strategy that utilizes Fe2(CO)9 dinuclear-cluster to precisely construct Fe2 site, consisting of two Fe1-N3 units connected by Fe-Fe bonds and firmly bonded to N-doped carbon. Systematic characterizations and theoretical modeling reveal that the Fe-Fe coordination motif markedly reduced the devotion of the antibonding state in the Fe-O bond because of the strong orbital coupling interaction of dual Fe d-d orbitals. This facilitates O-O covalent bond cleavage of O3 and enhances binding strength with reaction intermediates (atomic oxygen species; *O and *OO), thus boosting catalytic ozonation performance. As a result, Fe dinuclear site catalyst exhibits 100% ozonation efficiency for CH3SH elimination, outperforming commercial MnO2 catalysts by 1,200-fold. This research provides insights into the atomic-level structure-activity relationship of ozonation catalysts and extends the use of dinuclear catalysts in catalytic ozonation and beyond.

Abstract
Objective: To evaluate the objective response rate (ORR) of induction chemoimmunotherapy with camrelizumab plus TPF (docetaxel, cisplatin, and capecitabine) for locally advanced hypopharyngeal squamous cell carcinoma (LA HSCC) and potential predictive factors for ORR. Methods: A single-center, prospective, phase 2 and single-arm trial was conducted for evaluating antitumor activity of camrelizumab+TPF(docetaxel+cisplatin+capecitabine) for LA HSCC between May 21, 2021 and April 15, 2023, patients admitted to the Eye & ENT Hospital affiliated with Fudan University. The primary endpoint was ORR, and enrolled patients with LA HSCC at T3-4N0-3M0 received induction chemoimmunotherapy for three cycles: camrelizumab 200 mg day 1, docetaxel 75 mg/m2 day 1, cisplatin 25 mg/m2 days 1-3, and capecitabine 800 mg/m2 days 1-14. Patients were assigned to radioimmunotherapy when they had complete response or partial response (PR)>70% (Group A), or assigned to surgery plus adjuvant radiotherapy/chemoradiotherapy when they had PR≤70% (Group B), and the responses were defined by using tumor volume evaluation system. Tumor diameter was also used to assess the treatment responses by Response Evaluation Criteria in Solid Tumors (RECIST) version 1.1. Use SPSS 23.0 software was used to analyze the data. Results: A total of 51 patients were enrolled who underwent the induced chemoimmunotherapy for three cycles, and all were males, aged 35-69 years old. After three cycles of induction immunochemotherapy, 42 (82.4%) patients existed in Group A (complete response or PR>70%) and 9 patients (17.6%) in Group B (PR≤70%), the ORR was 82.4%. The primary endpoint achieved expected main research objectives. Compared to the patients of Group A, the patients of Group B showed the higher T stage and the larger volume of primary tumor before induced immunochemotherapy, and also had the less regression of tumor volume after induced immunochemotherapy (all P<0.05). The optimal cutoff value of pre-treatment tumor volume for predicting ORR was 39 cm3. The T stage (OR=12.71, 95%CI: 1.4-112.5, P=0.022) and the volume (OR=7.1, 95%CI: 1.4-36.8, P=0.018) of primary tumor were the two main factors affecting ORR rate of induction chemoimmunotherapy. Conclusion: The induction chemoimmunotherapy with camrelizumab plus TPF shows an encouraging antitumor efficacy in LA HSCC.

Abstract
Carbon-defect engineering in single-atom metal-nitrogen-carbon (M─N─C) catalysts by straightforward and robust strategy, enhancing their catalytic activity for volatile organic compounds, and uncovering the carbon vacancy-catalytic activity relationship are meaningful but challenging. In this study, an iron-nitrogen-carbon (Fe─N─C) catalyst is intentionally designed through a carbon-thermal-diffusion strategy, exposing extensively the carbon-defective Fe─N4 sites within a micro-mesoporous carbon matrix. The optimization of Fe─N4 sites results in exceptional catalytic ozonation efficiency, surpassing that of intact Fe─N4 sites and commercial MnO2 by 10 and 312 times, respectively. Theoretical calculations and experimental data demonstrated that carbon-defect engineering induces selective cleavage of C─N bond neighboring the Fe─N4 motif. This induces an increase in non-uniform charges and Fermi density, leading to elevated energy levels at the center of Fe d-band. Compared to the intact atomic configuration, carbon-defective Fe─N4 site is more activated to strengthen the interaction with O3 and weaken the O─O bond, thereby reducing the barriers for highly active surface atomic oxygen (*O/*OO), ultimately achieving efficient oxidation of CH3 SH and its intermediates. This research not only offers a viable approach to enhance the catalytic ozonation activity of M─N─C but also advances the fundamental comprehension of how periphery carbon environment influences the characteristics and efficacy of M─N4 sites.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Alzheimer's disease (AD) and vascular cognitive impairment (VCI) are the two main causes of dementia. AD and VCI share similar symptoms of cognitive decline and may be attributable to similar risk factors. Establishing a prospective cohort to compare VCI and AD would help to understand vascular risk factors related to dementia. OBJECTIVES China Alzheimer's disease and Neurodegenerative Disorder Research (CANDOR) study is a prospective multicenter cohort study. It aims to study the similarities and differences between AD and post stroke cognitive impairment (PSCI) in neuroimaging changes, disease progression, and multiple omics studies. DESIGN This is an ongoing study. From July 31, 2019, to August 1, 2022, we recruited 1449 participants with ages between 40 and 100 years. The cohort included three groups: AD group, PSCI group, and normal cognitive (NC) group. Data were collected in face-to-face interviews at baseline, and will be followed up every year for 4 years. The PSCI group had additional follow-ups at 3-month and 6-month after enrollment. Brain Magnetic Resonance Imaging (MRI) included high-resolution sequences for intracranial arteries. Cognitive assessments and follow-up information will be prospectively collected. Biological specimens including blood and urine at baseline were collected and tested. PARTICIPANTS The targeted sample size of PSCI group was 500, AD group with 600 and NC group with 2000. There were 1449 participants enrolled. Include 508 participants were in NC group, 387 in AD group and 554 in PSCI group. MEASUREMENTS Demographics, clinical parameters, and medical examinations were collected and performed. Cognitive assessment was performed to assess all cognitive domains including memory, language, executive function, and orientation function. CONCLUSIONS The CANDOR study is a prospective cohort study. Data from this cohort provide us an opportunity to investigate the contribution of vascular factors to dementia pathogenesis.

Abstract
Chemical mechanical polishing (CMP) offers a promising pathway to smooth third-generation semiconductors. However, it is still a challenge to reduce the use of additional oxidants or/and energy in current CMP processes. Here, a new and green atomically smoothing method: Piezocatalytic-CMP (Piezo-CMP) is reported. Investigation shows that the Piezo-CMP based on tetragonal BaTiO3 (t-BT) can polish the rough surface of a reaction sintering SiC (RS-SiC) to the ultra-smooth surface with an average surface roughness (Ra) of 0.45 nm and the rough surface of a single-crystal 4H-SiC to the atomic planarization Si and C surfaces with Ra of 0.120 and 0.157 nm, respectively. In these processes, t-BT plays a dual role of piezocatalyst and abrasive. That is, it piezo-catalytically generates in-situ active oxygen species to selectively oxidize protruding sites of SiC surface, yielding soft SiO2 , and subsequently, it acts as a usual abrasive to mechanically remove these SiO2 . This mechanism is further confirmed by density functional theory (DFT) calculation and molecular simulation. In this process, piezocatalytic oxidation is driven only by the original pressure and friction force of a conventional polishing process, thus, the piezo-CMP process do not require any additional oxidant and energy, being a green and effective polishing method.

Abstract
Highly reactive nanoclusters of metal oxides are extremely difficult to be synthesized due to their thermodynamic instability. For the first time, CuOx nanoclusters supported on anatase TiO2 nanotubes (NT) with many defects as anchoring sites were successfully prepared. Although the copper loading reached as high as 2.5 %, the size of CuOx nanoclusters in the sample of 2.5 %CuOx/NT were mainly around 1.0 nm. The aggregation of copper species during the calcination process was undoubtedly hampered by the anchoring effects of the abundant defects in NT support. Due to the highly exposed undercoordinated atoms of CuOx nanoclusters, the mixed valences of copper, and the strong interface interaction between CuOx nanoclusters and NT support, 2.5 %CuOx/NT-catalyzed ozonation showed the highest pseudo-first-order reaction rate constant of 8.5 × 10-2 min-1, 2.2 and 4.0 times that of NT-catalyzed ozonation and ozonation alone, respectively. Finally, the catalytic mechanism was revealed by both experiments and density functional theory calculations (DFT). The results demonstrated that the undercoordinated Cu in CuOx/NT could highly promote the adsorption of ozone with a high adsorption energy of -125.16 eV and the adsorbed ozone was activated immediately, tending to dissociate into a O2 molecule and a surface O atom. Thus, abundant reactive oxygen species, e.g., hydroxyl radical (·OH), superoxide radical (·O2-) and singlet oxygen (1O2), could be generated via chain reactions. Especially, ·OH mainly contributed to the removal of ibuprofen pollutants. This work sheds a light on the design and preparation of highly reactive nanoclusters of metal oxide catalysts for catalytic ozonation of refractory organic pollutants.

Abstract
PURPOSE/OBJECTIVE(S) A precise radiotherapy plan is required to ensure accurate delineation of gross tumor volumes (GTV) and clinical target volumes (CTV1 and CTV2) of glioblastomas (GBMs). However, traditional manual delineation is labor intensive and highly dependent on oncologists' experience. To construct and evaluate a deep learning-based automatic delineation method using prior knowledge in multimodal medical imaging to automate precise GTV, CTV1 and CTV2 contouring in GBM patients. MATERIALS/METHODS We retrospectively collected the CT and MRI scans of 55 eligible patients with histologically proven high-grade glioma (HGG) from an institute, these scans were performed with non-enhanced CT (CT), contrast-enhanced T1-weighted (T1C) and T2-FLAIR (T2F) sequences. We proposed a two-stage automatic segmentation framework (PKMI-Net) for GTV, CTV1 and CTV2 based on deep learning using prior knowledge in multimodal medical imaging, and its segmentation performance was evaluated with dice similarity coefficient (DSC), 95% Harsdorff distance (HD95), average surface distance (ASD) and relative volume difference (RVD). To further investigate the generalizability of our method, we designed and conducted two evaluation strategies (Mix and Cross) on four multicenter datasets (including 55 patients, 37 patients, 21 patients and 35 patients). RESULTS The evaluation results with an 11-patient test set from the single institute were summarized in Table 1, the proposed method demonstrated the best accuracy in segmenting, respectively, GTV, CTV1 and CTV, achieving a DSC of 0.94, 0.95 and 0.92; HD95 of 2.07 mm, 1.18 mm and 3.80 mm; ASD of 0.69 mm, 0.39 mm and 1.13 mm and RVE of 5.50%, 3.97% and 9.68%. In the multicenter evaluation, the segmentation performance of our method implemented with the Cross strategy was comparable to that with the Mix strategy, demonstrating that our method had high and stable generalizability across multicenter datasets in automatically segmenting GTV, CTV1 and CTV2. CONCLUSION Our proposed method achieved promising results in automatically segmenting gliomas across various datasets, which could improve the quality and efficiency of glioblastoma radiotherapy.

Abstract
PURPOSE/OBJECTIVE(S) Given the generally long natural history of thymic malignancies, proton beam therapy (PBT) is advocated to minimize the risk of long-term toxicities to mediastinal organs. Adverse events (AE) and long-term clinical outcomes for this population have not been well-characterized. MATERIALS/METHODS The Proton Collaborative Group registry (NCT01255748), a multi-institutional prospective database of academic and community proton centers in the US, was queried for patients with thymomas and thymic carcinomas treated with PBT. Patients with recurrent/metastatic disease, non-thymic histology, received either prior or palliative radiotherapy (dose < 40 Gy RBE) were excluded. Overall survival (OS) and local control (LC) were estimated using Kaplan-Meier methods. RESULTS A total of 97 patients were identified in the PCG registry. After applying relevant exclusion criteria, 70 patients from 12 proton centers treated from 2011-2021 were included for analysis. Median follow-up length was 16 months. Median age was 58.5 years (IQR 46-63), and 60% were female. 81.4% had a diagnosis of thymoma, and 18.6% thymic carcinoma. 59 patients underwent surgical resection. 11 were treated with definitive PBT, of which 5 received concurrent chemotherapy. Median dose was 54 Gy RBE (range 41.4 - 70 Gy RBE), median number of fractions was 30 (range 21 - 38). 73.4% received pencil beam scanning and 23% uniform scanning PBT. Treatment was overall well-tolerated: a single patient developed grade 4 pneumonitis. Grade 3 AEs were seen in 3 patients - dyspnea, anorexia, and heart failure. Highest grade toxicity experienced was grade 2 for 47.1% and grade 1 for 42.9% of patients. 3-year overall survival (OS) was 82.6% for the entire cohort. 3-year OS was 94% for resected/adjuvant cohort and 35.6% in the non-surgical/definitive cohort. 3-year local control (LC) was 91.7% for the entire cohort. By surgery/margin status, 3-year LC was 96.8% in patients with close or negative margins (a single failure in a patient with close margins), whereas 3-year LC was 55.1% for patients with positive margins/unresectable disease. CONCLUSION Thymic malignancies treated with PBT appear to have favorable outcomes, especially in the adjuvant setting, in this cohort representing the largest series of such patients.

Abstract
PURPOSE/OBJECTIVE(S) Whole-lung, low-dose radiation (LD-RT) for COVID-19 requires randomization and biologic correlates to determine causality and mechanism. MATERIALS/METHODS A phase III trial randomized COVID-19 patients to physician's choice of drug therapy with or without LD-RT. Primary endpoint was intubation-free survival (IFS). The trial was designed with 80% power (two-sided log rank, alpha 0.05) to detect a hazard ratio of 0.3 after 12 intubation events. Estimating a 25% event rate, the planned sample size was 84 patients plus 25 to account for declining intubation rates and screen failures. Due to hospitalization declines and other barriers, the trial closed prematurely. Available randomized data were analyzed by intention-to-treat and combined with phase II results and immunologic correlates, using one-sided significance and an alpha of 0.1 to inform future trial design. RESULTS From Jun 2020-Jun 2022, 14 patients were randomized on a phase III trial. From Apr 2020-Dec 2020, 42 patients were enrolled on a phase II trial and blindly matched to 40 controls from contemporaneous trials. 96 total patients and 193 blood samples were available for analysis. Mean hospital duration with LD-RT was 12.9 vs 15.4 days in controls (p = 0.12). Oxygen flow rate >15 L/min (26% vs 38%, p = .27), high-flow oxygen >30 L/min (24% vs 38%, p = 0.18), non-invasive positive-pressure >60 L/min (9% vs 27%, p = 0.03), and mechanical ventilation (9% vs 24%, p = 0.05) reduced with LD-RT. Mean supplemented oxygen volume was 171,759 vs 547,626 liters in controls, with daily means of 10 vs 23 L/min (p = 0.03). Radiographs worsened in 43% vs 71% of controls (p = 0.03). Arterial blood gas mean P/F ratios improved 22% after LD-RT vs declined 8% in controls (p = 0.12). Mean days febrile were 1.8 vs 2.9 in controls (p = 0.10). Rate of myocardial injury was 47% vs 40% in controls (p = 0.77). Flow cytometry revealed 4-fold and 30-fold larger expansions, respectively, in CD8- and CD4-positive CD3+PD1+Ki67-high proliferating cytotoxic T-cells (300% vs 75% expansion, p = 0.07) and helper T-cells (200% expansion vs 6% contraction, p = 0.03) at day 7. In the randomized cohort, mean oxygen volume fell 75% with LD-RT to 78,336 vs 316,786 liters in controls (p = 0.13), mean flow rates were 5.1 vs 18.4 L/min (p = 0.13), radiographs worsened in 50% vs 100% (p = .17), P/F ratios improved 31% vs declined 68% in controls (p = 0.03), hospital duration was 8.9 vs 11.5 days (p = 0.22), and zero LD-RT patients vs one control intubated. CONCLUSION Combined analysis of a phase II/III randomized trial suggests that LD-RT prevents ventilation, reduces supplemental oxygen need, improves clinical course, and enhances immune response. LD-RT may have both immediate direct effects and delayed enhanced immunity in COVID-19. Larger multi-institutional trials are justified.

Abstract
Objective: To examine the clinical value of rapid detection of drug-resistant bacteria by immunochromatography and the effects of rapid detection on the prognosis of patients with severe intra-abdominal infection complicated by carbapenem-resistant Enterobacteriaceae (CRE) bloodstream infection. Methods: This was a retrospective cohort study. We analyzed clinical data of 73 patients with severe abdominal infections with sepsis or septic shock complicated by CRE bloodstream infection admitted to the general surgery department of Jinling Hospital between February 2022 and February 2023. Patients were divided into a colloidal gold immunochromatographic assay (GICA) group (17 patients) and conventional testing group (56 patients) based on whether a GICA for CRE had been performed on the patients' first blood culture sample during the diagnosis and treatment process. There were no statistically significant differences between the GICA and conventional testing groups in age ([55.9±17.3] vs. [47.6±16.4] years), sex ([16 men vs. one woman ] vs. [41 men vs. 15 women]), median Charlson comorbidity index (3.0[2.0,4.0] vs. 3.0[2.0, 4.8]), septic shock (10 vs. 39), or acute kidney injury (8 vs. 40) (all P>0.05). Both groups routinely underwent traditional bacterial identification and drug susceptibility testing. Additionally, patients in the GICA group were tested directly for positive blood cultures using a GICA carbapenemase test kit. The main outcomes were mortality rates on Days 28 and 90 after the first identification of CRE bloodstream infection in both groups. We also compared the microbial clearance rate, duration of hospitalization and intensive care unit stay, and time from onset of CRE bloodstream infection to initiation of targeted and appropriate antibiotics between the two groups. Results: The rate of microbial clearance of bloodstream infection was significantly greater in the GICA group than in the conventional testing group (15/17 vs. 34/56 [60.7%], χ2=4.476, P=0.034), whereas the 28-day mortality tended to be lower in the GICA than conventional testing group [5/17 vs. 44.6% [25/56], χ2=1.250, P=0.264). The 90-day mortality (8/17 vs. 53.6% [30/56], χ2=0.222, P=0.638), median duration of hospitalization (37.0 [18.0, 46.5] days vs. 45.5 [32.2, 64.8] days, Z=-1.867, P=0.062), and median duration of intensive care unit stay (18.0 [6.5, 35.0] days vs. 32.0 [5.0, 51.8] days, Z=-1.251, P=0.209). The median time between the onset of bloodstream infection and administration of antibiotics was 49.0 (38.0, 69.0) hours in the GICA group, which is significantly shorter than the 163.0 (111.8, 190.0) hours in the conventional testing group (Z=-5.731, P<0.001). The median time between the onset of bloodstream infection and administration of appropriate antibiotics was 40.0 (34.0, 80.0) hours in the GICA group, which is shorter than in the conventional testing group (68.0 [38.2, 118.8]) hours; however, this difference is not statistically significant (Z=-1.686, P=0.093). Conclusions: GICA can provide information on carbapenemase- producing pathogens faster than traditional drug sensitivity testing, enabling early administration of the optimal antibiotics. The strategy of 'carbapenemase detection first' for managing bacterial infection has the potential to improve prognosis of patients and reduce mortality rate.

Abstract
The design of a micro-/nanoreactor is of great significance for catalytic ozonation, which can achieve effective mass transfer and expose powerful reaction species. Herein, the mesoporous carbon with atomic Fe-N4 sites embedded in the ordered carbon nanochannels (Fe-N4/CMK-3) was synthesized by the hard-template method. Fe-N4/CMK-3 can be employed as nanoreactors with preferred electronic and geometric catalytic microenvironments for the internal catalytic ozonation of CH3SH. During the CH3SH oxidation process, the mass transfer coefficient of the Fe-N4/CMK-3 confined system with sufficient O3 transfer featured a level of at least 1.87 × 10-5, which is 34.6 times that of the Fe-N4/C-Si unconfined system. Detailed experimental studies and theoretical calculations demonstrated that the anchored atomic Fe-N4 sites and nanoconfinement effects regulated the local electronic structure of the catalyst and promoted the activation of O3 molecules to produce atomic oxygen species (AOS) and reactive oxygen species (ROS), eventually achieving efficient oxidation of CH3SH into CO2/SO42-. Benefiting from the high diffusion rate and the augmentation of AOS/ROS, Fe-N4/CMK-3 exhibited an excellent poisoning tolerance, along with high catalytic durability. This contribution provides the proof-of-concept strategy for accelerating catalytic ozonation of sulfur-containing volatile organic compounds (VOCs) by combining confined catalysis and atomic catalysts and can be extended to the purification of other gaseous pollutants.

Abstract
Facilitating C─N bond cleavage and promoting *COO desorption are essential yet challenging in urea oxidation reactions (UORs). Herein a novel interfacial coordination assembly protocol is established to modify the Co-phytate coordination complex on the Ni-based metal-organic framework (MOF) nanosheet array (CC/Ni-BDC@Co-PA) toward boosted and sustained UOR electrocatalysis. Comprehensive experimental and theoretical investigations unveil that surface Co-PA modification over Ni-BDC can manipulate the electronic state of Ni sites, and in situ evolved charge-redistributed surface can promote urea adsorption and the subsequent C─N bond cleavage. Impressively, Co-PA functionalization can impart a negatively charged catalyst surface with improved aerophobicity, not only weakening *COO adsorption and promoting CO2 departure, but also repelling CO3 2- approaching to deactivate Ni species, eventually alleviating CO2 poisoning and enhancing operational durability. Beyond that, improved hydrophilic and aerophobic characteristics would also contribute to better mass transfer kinetics. Consequently, CC/Ni-BDC@Co-PA exhibits prominent UOR performance with an ultralow potential of 1.300 V versus RHE to attain 10 mA cm-2 , a small Tafel slope of 45 mV dec-1 , and strong durability, comparable to the best Ni-based electrocatalysts documented thus far. This work affords a novel paradigm to construct MOF-based materials for promoted and sustained UOR catalysis through elegant surface engineering based on a metal-PA complex.

Abstract
Exploring active and durable Ni-based materials with optimized electronic and architectural engineering to promote the urea oxidation reaction (UOR) is pivotal for the urea-related technologies. Herein a 3D self-supported hierarchical-architectured nanoarray electrode (CC/MnNi@NC) is proposed in which 1D N-doped carbon nanotubes (N-CNTs) with 0D MnNi nanoparticles (NPs) encapsulation are intertwined into 2D nanosheet aligned on the carbon cloth for prominently boosted and sustained UOR electrocatalysis. From combined experimental and theoretical investigations, Mn-alloying can regulate Ni electronic state with downshift of the d-band center, facilitating active Ni3+ species generation and prompting the rate-determining step (*COO intermediate desorption). Meanwhile, the micro/nano-hierarchical nanoarray configuration with N-CNTs encapsulating MnNi NPs can not only endow strong operational durability against metal corrosion/agglomeration and enrich the density of active sites, but also accelerate electron transfer, and more intriguingly, promote mass transfer as a result of desirable superhydrophilic and quasi-superaerophobic characteristics. Therefore, with such elegant integration of 0D, 1D and 2D motifs into 3D micro/nano-hierarchical architecture, the resulting CC/MnNi@NC can deliver admirable UOR performance, favorably comparable to the best-performing UOR electrocatalysts reported thus far. This work opens a fresh prospect in developing advanced electrocatalysts via electronic manipulation coupled with architectural engineering for various energy conversion technologies.

Abstract
Exploring high-performing Ni-based electrocatalysts for the urea oxidation reaction (UOR) is crucial for developing urea-related energy technologies yet remains a daunting challenge. In this study, a synergistic anomalous hcp phase and heteroatom doping engineering over metallic Ni are found to enhance the UOR. A metal-organic framework-mediated approach is proposed to construct Ni nanoparticles (NPs) with designated crystal phase embedded in N-doped carbon (fcc-Ni/NC and hcp-Ni/NC). Significant crystal phase-dependent catalytic activity for the UOR is observed; hcp-Ni/NC, featuring unusual hcp phase, outperforms fcc-Ni/NC with conventional fcc phase. Moreover, incorporating foreign Mn species in hcp-Ni/NC can further dramatically promote UOR, making it among the best UOR catalysts reported to date. From experimental results and DFT calculations, the specific nanoarchitecture, involving an anomalous hcp phase together with Mn doping engineering, endows hcp-MnNi/NC with abundant exposed active sites, facile charge transfer, and more significantly, optimized electronic state, giving rise to enriched Ni3+ active species and oxygen vacancies on the catalyst surface during electrocatalysis. These features collectively contribute to the enhanced UOR activity. This work highlights a potent design strategy to develop advanced catalysts with regulated electronic state through synergistic crystal phase and doping engineering.

Abstract
PURPOSE In this study, we aimed to identify risk factors for developing second primary malignancies (SPMs) in colorectal neuroendocrine neoplasms (NENs) patients and develop a competing-risk nomogram to predict SPMs' probabilities quantitatively. METHODS Patients with colorectal NENs were retrospectively collected from the Surveillance, Epidemiology, and End Results (SEER) database during 2000-2013. Potential risk factors for SPMs' occurrence in colorectal NENs' patients were identified by the Fine and Gray's proportional sub-distribution hazards model. Then, a competing-risk nomogram was constructed to quantify SPMs' probabilities. The discriminative abilities and calibrations of this competing-risk nomogram were assessed by the area under the receiver-operating characteristic (ROC) curves (AUC) and calibration curves. RESULTS We identified 11,017 colorectal NENs' patients, and randomly divided them into training (n = 7711 patients) and validation (n = 3306 patients) cohorts. In the whole cohort, 12.4% patients (n = 1369) had developed SPMs during the maximum follow-up of approximately 19 years (median 8.9 years). Sex, age, race, primary tumor location, and chemotherapy were identified as risk factors for SPMs' occurrence in colorectal NENs' patients. Such factors were selected to develop a competing-risk nomogram and showed excellent predictive ability for SPMs' occurrence (the 3-, 5-, and 10-year AUC values were 0.631, 0.632, and 0.629 in the training cohort and 0.665, 0.639, 0.624 in the validation cohort, respectively). CONCLUSIONS This research identified risk factors for SPMs' occurrence in colorectal NENs' patients. Competing-risk nomogram was constructed and proved to have good performance.

Abstract
Disc displacement without reduction is a common disorder of the temporomandibular joint, causing clinical symptoms and sometimes condylar degeneration. In some cases, bone regeneration is detected following disc-repositioning procedures. Until now, however, systems-wide knowledge of the protein levels for condylar outcome with disc position is still lacking. Here, we performed comprehensive expression profiling of synovial fluid from 109 patients with disc displacement without reduction using high-resolution data-independent acquisition mass spectrometry and characterized differences in 1,714 proteins. Based on magnetic resonance imaging, samples were divided into groups with versus without condylar absorption and subgroups with versus without new bone. For the proteomic analysis, 32 proteins in groups presented with statistical significance (>2-fold, P < 0.05). Pathways such as response to inorganic substances, blood coagulation, and estrogen signaling were significantly expressed in the group with bone absorption as compared with pathways such as regulation of body fluid levels, vesicle-mediated transport, and focal adhesion, which were enriched in the group without bone absorption. In subgroup analysis, 45 proteins of significant importance (>2-fold, P < 0.05) were associated with pathways including would healing, glycolysis and gluconeogenesis, and amino acid metabolism. Combined with clinical examination, molecules such as acetyl-CoA carboxylase beta (ACACB) and transforming growth factor beta 1 (TGFB1) were related to features such as visual analog scale and maximum interincisal opening (P < 0.05). In addition, 7 proteins were examined by Western blotting, including progesterone immunomodulatory binding factor 1 (PIBF1), histidine-rich glycoprotein (HRG), and protein kinase C and casein kinase substrate in neurons 2 (PACSIN2). In conclusion, this study provides the first proteome analysis of condylar absorption at disc displacement without reduction and postoperative new bone formation after disc reposition. Integrated with clinical data, this analysis provides an important insight into the proteomics of condylar modification at disc position.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE To analyze the association of Nur77 with overall survival of gastric cancer patients and investigate the role of Nur77 in invasion and migration of gastric cancer cells. METHODS Oncomine database was used to analyze the expression of Nur77 in gastric cancer and gastric mucosa tissues, and the distribution characteristics of Nur77 protein between gastric cancer and normal tissues were compared using Human Protein Atlas. GEPIA2 was used to analyze the relationship of Nur77 expression and the patients' survival. The expression of Nur77 in gastric cancer cell lines GES-1, AGS and MKN-45 were detected by Western blotting. The regulatory interactions between IL-6 and Nur77 were verified by transfecting the cells with specific Nur-77 siRNA and Nur-77-overexpressing plasmid. The changes in migration ability of the cells following Nur-77 knockdown were assessed with scratch assay. The effect of Nur-77 overexpression or IL-6 knockdown, or their combination, on migration and invasion of the gastric cancer cells were examined using Transwell assay. The effect of Nur77 expression level on NF-κB/IL-6 pathway activation was analyzed using Western blotting. RESULTS Oncomine database showed that gastric cancer tissues expressed a significantly higher level of Nur77 mRNA than normal tissues (P < 0.05). Nur77 expression was detected mostly in the nucleus, and a high Nur77 expression was associated with a poor survival outcome of the patients (P < 0.05). In gastric cancer cells, the high expression of Nur77 participated in the regulation of IL-6. Nur77 silencing significantly lowered the migration ability of the cells (P < 0.05), and IL-6 silencing significantly attenuated the enhanced migration caused by Nur77 overexpression (P < 0.05). Nur77 participates in the activation of NF-κB/IL-6 signaling pathway by regulating the expression of p-p65, p65, p-Stat3 and Stat3. CONCLUSION A high Nur77 expression is strongly correlated with a poor prognosis of gastric cancer patients. Nur77 promotes the invasion and migration of gastric cancer cells possibly by regulating the NF-κB/IL-6 signaling pathway.

Abstract
Herein we reported the first example of preparing α-MnO2 by selective acid etching from Mn-containing spinel. The defects, facet, and surface area of α-MnO2 were cooperatively engineered by an all-in-one acid etching method to enhance the defect accessibility to the reactants. The obtained highly porous α-MnO2 nanorods have rich defects of Mn3+ (24.9%) and oxygen vacancies (31.4%), mainly active crystal facets of (110), and an ultrahigh surface area of 271.1 m2/g. With α-MnO2 nanorods as the catalysts, more than 90.9% of 4-chlorophenol can be degraded within 12 min by catalytic ozonation in a wide work pH of 4.5-10.5. The experiments and DFT theory calculations reveal that α-MnO2 with (110) facet promotes the adsorption and activation of ozone directly over the defects or indirectly over H2O adsorbed on the defects. Thus, more reactive oxygen species (e.g., •OH, •O2-, 1O2, surface *O) are generated and get involved in pollutant degradation. This work provides a facile method to maximize the defect accessibility, and a deeper mechanistic study to understand the roles of the defects.

Abstract
Traditional batch configuration is not sustainable due to catalyst leaching and ineffective recovery. Herein, a novel membrane-based catalyst with oxygen vacancies is developed, which assembled metal-organic-framework cobalt ferrite nanocrystals (MOF-d CoxFe3-xO4) on polyvinylidene fluoride membrane to activate peroxymonosulfate (PMS) for catalytic degradation of emerging pollutants. MOF-d CoxFe3-xO4 are synthesized by one-step pyrolysis using Co/Fe bimetallic organic frameworks (CoxFe3-x bi-MOF) with tunable cobalt content as a template (x/3-x represented the molar ratio of Co and Fe in MOF). Intriguingly, MOF-d Co1.75Fe1.25O4 membrane exhibits excellent PMS activation efficiency as indicated by 95.12% removal of the probe chemical (bisphenol A) at 0.5 mM PMS (∼100 L m-2 h-1 at the loading of 10 mg), which is significantly higher than the traditional Co1.75Fe1.25O4 suspension system (34.16%). Experimental results show that the membrane has excellent anti-interference ability to anions and dissolved organic matter, and can effectively degrade a variety of emerging pollutants, and its performance is not inhibited by the change of solution pH (3-9) or the long-term (20 h) continuous flow operation. EPR and quenching experiments show that catalytic degradation is the result of the synergistic effect of radicals and non-radicals. The oxygen vacancy-mediated mechanism can explain the formation of active substances, and the formation of 1O2 plays an important role in the degradation of bisphenol A. This study provides a membrane-based strategy for effective and sustainable removal of emerging pollutants.

Abstract
The elimination of gaseous sulfur-containing volatile organic compounds (S-VOCs) by a microbubble-assisted Fenton-like process is an innovative strategy. Herein, we established a microbubble-assisted Fenton-like process to eliminate malodorous microbubble CH3SH as representative gaseous S-VOCs, in which BiOCl nanosheets loaded on a three-dimensional sponge were exposed to (001) or (010) facets and induced Fenton-like interface reactions. Intriguingly, the microbubble-assisted Fenton-like process significantly removed 99.9% of CH3SH, higher than that of the macrobubble-assisted Fenton-like process (39.0%). The self-accelerating interfacial catalytic mechanism was in-depth identified by in situ ATR-FTIR, PTR-TOF-MS, EPR, and DFT computational study. The extraordinary elimination performance of microbubble-assisted Fenton-like process lies in the enhancing dissolution/mass transfer of gaseous CH3SH in the gas/liquid phase and the tight contact between CH3SH-microbubbles and 3D-BiOCl sponge due to the low rising velocity (0.13 mm s-1) and negative charge (-45.53 mV) of CH3SH-microbubbles, as well as the effective generation of 1O2 by activating the enriched dissolved oxygen in CH3SH-microbubble via effective electron-polarized sites on 3D-BiOCl sponge. Furthermore, CH3SH-microbubbles transferred electrons to H2O2 through electron-rich oxygen vacancy centers of the 3D-BiOCl sponge to generate more •OH, thus achieving excellent elimination performance. Overall, this study demonstrates the enhanced self-accelerating interfacial catalytic elimination by S-VOC microbubble and provides the underlying mechanisms.

Abstract
Exploring cost-effective electrocatalysts with suitable hydrogen binding strength and rational micro/nano-architecture towards the hydrogen evolution reaction (HER) is crucial for energy technologies, yet remains a tough challenge. Herein we present the first instance of a nanoscale RuP2-RuS2 heterostructure encapsulated in N, P, and S co-doped porous carbon nanosheets (RuP2-RuS2/NPS-C) for boosting the HER. The synthesis involves the construction of a 2D core-shell structured precursor in which Ru3+-functionalized g-C3N4 is wrapped by poly(cyclotriphosphazene-co-4,4'-sulfonyldiphenol) followed by pyrolysis. In this nanocomposite, the unique architecture with a highly dispersed embedded RuP2-RuS2 nanoheterostructure guarantees not only full exposure of the active sites with enhanced robustness but also smooth mass/charge transfer. More significantly, the experimental results and theoretical calculations reveal that coupling RuP2 with RuS2 to construct a heterointerface can induce charge redistribution, giving rise to optimized hydrogen adsorption energy for substantially accelerating the HER. This work provides a novel strategy to engineer high-performance Ru-based electrocatalysts by elegantly modulating the micro-/nano-architecture and interface coupling effect.

Abstract
Piezoelectric effect was firstly employed to improve dewatering efficiency of sludge. It was found that the piezoelectric effect could be driven directly by the pressure of pressure filtration process, without any additional energy. This piezo-dewatering process coupled piezoelectric effect with pressure filtration could efficiently remove moisture of sludge. Under 0.6 MPa for 2 h, moisture content (MC) and weight of sludge could be reduced to 63.9% and 3.2 g from 96.7% and 50 g by the piezo-dewatering process with 0.45 g t-BaTiO3. This piezo-dewatering efficiency was much higher than that of usual conditioning-pressure filtrations using CaO, FeCl3 or polyacrylamide (PAM) as the conditioners. And the piezo-dewatering process assisted by PAM could further decrease MC and weight of the sludge to 54.9% and 2.1 g, correspondingly, which complied to the advanced dewatering requirement (MC < 60%). The favorable piezo-dewatering efficiency was contributed to the piezo-catalytic oxidation and the electric role of remnant piezo-field. The finding of this piezo-dewatering mechanism offered an inspiring look at developing the emerging dewatering technology.

Abstract
Camellia sinensis cv. 'Yanling Huayecha' (YHC) is an albino-green chimaeric tea mutant with stable genetic traits. Here, we analysed the cell ultrastructure, photosynthetic pigments, amino acids, and transcriptomes of the albino, mosaic, and green zones of YHC. Well-organized thylakoids were found in chloroplasts in mesophyll cells of the green zone but not the albino zone. The albino zone of the leaves contained almost no photosynthetic pigment. However, the levels of total amino acids and theanine were higher in the albino zone than in the mosaic and green zones. A transcriptomic analysis showed that carbon metabolism, nitrogen metabolism and amino acid biosynthesis showed differences among the different zones. Metabolite and transcriptomic analyses revealed that (1) downregulation of CsPPOX1 and damage to thylakoids in the albino zone may block chlorophyll synthesis; (2) downregulation of CsLHCB6, CsFdC2 and CsSCY1 influences chloroplast biogenesis and thylakoid membrane formation, which may contribute to the appearance of variegated tea leaves; and (3) tea plant variegation disrupts the balance between carbon and nitrogen metabolism and promotes the accumulation of amino acids, and upregulation of CsTSⅠ and CsAlaDC may enhance L-theanine synthesis. In summary, our study provides a theoretical basis and valuable insights for elucidating the molecular mechanisms and promoting the economic utilization of variegation in tea.

Abstract
2-phenylethanol (2-PE), which is extracted naturally from plant or biotechnology processing, is widely used in the food and cosmetics industries. Due to the high cost of 2-PE production, the valorization of waste carbon to produce 2-PE has gained increasing attention. Here, 2-PE was produced by Saccharomyces cerevisiae using tobacco waste extract (TWE) as the substrate. Considering the toxicity of nicotine and its inhibition of 2-PE, the tolerance of S. cerevisiae was first evaluated. The results suggested that the production of 2-PE by S. cerevisiae in TWEs could be carried out at 2·0 mg ml-1 nicotine concentrations and may be inhibited by 1·0 mg ml-1 2-PE. Thus, the compounds in the TWEs prepared at different temperatures were detected, and the results revealed that the TWEs prepared at 140°C contained 2·18 mg ml-1 of nicotine, had total sugar concentrations of 26·8 mg ml-1 and were suitable for 2-PE production. Due to feedback regulation, the 2-PE production was only 1·11 mg ml-1 , and the remaining glucose concentration remained at 13·78 mg ml-1 , which indicated insufficient glucose utilization. Then, in situ product recovery was further implemented to remove this inhibition; the glucose utilization (the remaining concentration decreased to 3·64 mg ml-1 ) increased, and the 2-PE production increased to 1·65 mg ml-1 . The 2-PE produced in the fermentation broth was first isolated by elution from the resin with 75% ethanol and then by removing the impurities with 2·5% activated charcoal, and pure 2-PE was identified by gas chromatography mass spectrometry. The results of this study suggest that TWE could be an alternative carbon source for 2-PE production. This could provide an outlet tobacco waste as well as reducing the price of natural 2-PE, although more strategies need to be explored to improve the production yield of 2-PE by using TWE.

Abstract
High solid anaerobic digestion (HSAD) was an emerging bioconversion technology which had the advantages of small digester, less digestate and low heating energy. A one-stage anaerobic system in CSTR by inoculating activated sludge of simultaneous propionate degradation and methanogenesis was proposed to improve the high-solid digestion performance and to stabilize the reaction process. Semi-continuous mode was successfully used to perform HSAD from cellulosic ethanol whole stillage at an initial substrate loading of 15.4% (w/w) dry matter content with different OLRs from 1.5 to 5.0 gVS·L-1 d-1 at an HRT of 30 days. The average methane yield during whole digestion reached 349.9 mL⋅gVS-1 with a total VS removal rate of 61.3%. The acclimation mechanism of multifunctional activated sludge was also explored by analyzing the functional property, physiological activity and microbial community structure. The results indicated the feasibility and efficiency of multifunctional activated sludge in a semi-continuous high-solid stirred tank reactor system.

Abstract
AIM To explore the applicability of diffusion-tensor imaging (DTI) sequence quantitative parameters in differentiating uterine sarcoma (USr) from degenerative uterine fibroids (DUF). MATERIALS AND METHODS Fourteen cases of USr and 30 cases of DUF were analysed retrospectively. The diffusion-weighted imaging (DWI) and DTI images were analysed by two observers using Functool software on a ADW4.6 workstation. The images were post-processed to generate an apparent diffusion coefficient (ADC) map of DWI, ADC map of DTI (ADCT map), and fractional anisotropy (FA) map. Three regions of interest (ROI) were selected from the ADC, ADCT, and FA maps to obtain the ADC, ADCT, and FA values. The receiver operating characteristic (ROC) curves of all parameters were used to analyse and compare the diagnostic value of USr and DUF. RESULTS The ADC value, ADCT value, and FA value of USr (1.190 ± 0.262 × 10-3mm2/s, 1.165 ± 0.270 × 10-9mm2/s, 0.168 ± 0.063) were significantly lower compared to the values for DUF (1.525 ± 0.314 × 10-3mm2/s, 1.650 ± 0.332 × 10-9mm2/s, 0.254 ± 0.111; all p<0.001). The diagnostic threshold values for USr were: ADC ≤1.290 × 10-3mm2/s, ADCT ≤1.322 × 10-9mm2/s and FA ≤0.192. The corresponding sensitivities and specificities were 78.6%/90%, 96.7%/92.9%, and 86.7%/85.7%, respectively. The areas under the curve (AUC) were 0.875, 0.974, and 0.831, respectively. CONCLUSIONS DTI quantitative parameters can be used to differentiate USr from DUF. The ADCT value had the highest diagnostic efficacy.
