文摘Negative thermal expansion(NTE)is a notable physical property where a material’s volume decreases instead of increasing when heated.The identification of NTE materials is crucial for thermal expansion control engineering.Most NTE materials exhibit NTE only within a narrow temperature range,restricting their applications.Achieving NTE across a broad temperature range remains a significant challenge.This study developed a novel PbTiO_(3)-based system,(1-x)PbTiO_(3–x)BiLuO_(3),incorporating rare-earth elements,using a distinctive high-pressure and high-temperature synthesis technique.We achieved NTE across a broad temperature range by coupling lattice(c/a)with ferroelectric order parameters.The incorporation of BiLuO_(3)resulted in distinctive ferroelectric characteristics,including increased tetragonality,spontaneous polarization,and NTE over a broad temperature range.NTE over an extended temperature range has been achieved in 0.95PbTiO_(3)–0.05BiLuO_(3)(■=−1.7×10^(–5)K^(−1),300–840 K)and 0.90PbTiO_(3)–0.10BiLuO_(3)(■=−1.4×10^(–5)K^(−1),300–860 K),compared to pristine PbTiO_(3)(■=−1.99×10^(–5)K^(−1),300–763 K).The improved tetragonalities and broader NTE temperature range result from the strong hybridization of Pb/Bi–O and Ti/Lu–O atoms,as demonstrated by combined experimental and theoretical analyses,including high-energy synchrotron X-ray diffraction,Raman spectroscopy,and density functional theory calculations.This study introduces a novel example of NTE over a broad temperature range,highlighting its potential as a high-performance thermal expansion compensator.Additionally,it presents an effective method for incorporating rare-earth elements to achieve NTE in PbTiO_(3)-based perovskites across a wide temperature range.

文摘BACKGROUND Diabetic foot ulcers(DFUs)are a significant challenge in diabetic care,and the efficacy of negative pressure wound therapy(NPWT)in treating them remains a subject of continuous investigation.AIM To provide a comprehensive meta-analysis of the role of NPWT in the manage-ment of DFUs.METHODS A systematic review was performed based on Preferred Reporting Items for Sys-tematic Reviews and Meta-Analyses guidelines,searching databases like PubMed,Embase,Web of Science,and the Cochrane Library.Randomized clinical trials(RCTs)were included to compare NPWT to other dressings for DFUs.Outcomes measured were wound healing time and rate,granulation tissue formation time,amputation rate,and adverse events.Study quality was evaluated using Coch-rane's risk of bias tool.Analyses utilizedχ2,I2,fixed or random-effects models via Stata v17.RESULTS Of the 1101 identified articles,9 RCTs were selected for meta-analysis.Studies spanned from 2005 to 2020 and originated from countries including the United States,Chile,Pakistan,Italy,India,and Germany.Meta-analysis demonstrated a significant improvement in wound healing rate[risk ratio(RR)=1.46,95%CI:1.22-1.76,P<0.01]and a reduction in amputation rate(RR=0.69,95%CI:0.50-0.96,P=0.006)with NPWT.Furthermore,the time for granulation tissue formation was significantly reduced by an average of 19.54 days.However,the incidence of adverse events did not significantly differ between NPWT and control treatments.CONCLUSION NPWT significantly improves wound healing rates and reduces amputation rates in DFUs.It also hastens the formation of granulation tissue.However,the therapy does not significantly alter the risk of adverse events compared to alternate treatments.

文摘Minimizing the thermal expansion coefficient(TEC)mismatch between the cathode and electrolyte in solid oxide fuel cells is crucial for achieving stable,durable operation and high performance.Recently,materials with negative thermal expansion(NTE)have at-tracted significant attention as effective additives for tailoring the thermomechanical properties of electrodes and enhancing cell durability.In this work,for the first time,single-phase NTE perovskite Sm_(0.85)Zn_(0.15)MnO_(3−δ)(SZM15)was successfully synthesized via the sol-gel method,eliminating the unwanted ZnO phase typically observed in materials obtained through the conventional solid-state reaction route.The sol-gel approach proved highly advantageous,offering low cost,robustness,excellent chemical homogeneity,precise compositional control,and high phase purity.After optimization of synthesis parameters,a negative TEC of approximately−6.5×10^(−6)K^(−1)was achieved in the 400-850℃range.SZM15 was then incorporated as an additive(10wt%-50wt%)into a SmBa0.5Sr0.5CoCuO_(5+δ)(SBSCCO)cathode to tune the thermomechanical properties with a La_(0.8)Sr_(0.2)Ga_(0.8)Mg_(0.2)O_(3−δ)(LSGM)electrolyte,achieving a minimal TEC mismatch of only 1%.Notably,the SBSCCO+10wt%SZM15 composite cathode exhibited the lowest polarization resistance of 0.019Ω·cm^(2)at 900℃,showing approximately 70%lower than that of the pristine cathode.Excellent long-term stability after 100 h of operation was achieved.In addition,a high peak power density of 680 mW·cm^(−2)was achieved in a Ni-YSZ(yttria-stabilized zirconia)|YSZ|Ce_(0.9)Gd_(0.1)O_(2−δ)(GDC10)|SBSCCO+10wt%SZM15 anode-supported fuel cell at 850℃,highlighting the effectiveness of incorporating NTE materials as a promising strategy for regulating the thermomechanical properties and improving the long-term stability of intermediate temperature solid oxide fuel cells(IT-SOFCs).

文摘The Scholl cyclization for creating seven-membered rings is of great importance in synthesizing negatively curved polycyclic aromatic compounds.In this study,we systematically report a methodical approach for converting[6]helicenes into negatively curved hexa[7]circulene using Scholl cyclization.The reaction revealed that the electron-donating substituents on the helicene terminal rings of helicenes facilitate the cyclization process while electron-withdrawing substituents would impede the cyclization.This was supported by theoretical calculations on the reaction process focusing on the arenium cation pathways.Through the application of this Scholl cyclization,a series of negatively curved hexa[7]circulene derivatives were synthesized,showing highly curved and twisted geometries.Notably,2,15-substituted derivatives exhibited high conformational stability against racemization,thereby performing circularly polarized luminescence with|glum|up to 4×10^(-3).

文摘BACKGROUND Patients with schizophrenia may lack awareness of the importance of posttracheotomy care due to the impact of their condition,often showing resistance or misunderstanding of care measures.When coupled with the impact of negative symptoms and the risk of complications after tracheotomy,patients may experience emotional fluctuations,restlessness,anxiety,and hostile behaviors,which pose significant challenges to nursing work.CASE SUMMARY We have reported the case of an 87-year-old male patient who was admitted to the hospital because of negative symptoms of schizophrenia and who underwent tracheotomy for severe pneumonia.In this study,we have summarized the nursing experience of a patient with negative symptoms of schizophrenia who underwent tracheotomy.The key nursing strategies included proper tracheotomy care,the management of psychiatric symptoms,a thorough assessment and implementation of enteral and parenteral nutrition,effective skincare,infection prevention,and comprehensive mental care.Individualized nursing skills helped stabilize the patient’s condition,followed by isolation and observation in a psychiatric hospital.CONCLUSION Effective postoperative tracheostomy care in patients with schizophrenia necessitates a tailored,multidisciplinary approach that addresses their psychiatric,physical,and emotional needs to achieve optimal clinical outcomes.
文摘BACKGROUND Blonanserin,a novel antipsychotic,has demonstrated efficacy in treating both positive and negative symptoms.However,limited research exists on its dose-dependent effectiveness and safety in patients with and without prominent nega-tive symptoms(PNS).AIM To evaluate the effectiveness and safety of blonanserin monotherapy for first-episode schizophrenia in real-world clinical settings and to explore the efficacy and safety of different doses of blonanserin for patients with PNS and without PNS.METHODS A 12-week,multicenter,prospective post-marketing surveillance was conducted.In this study,we included patients with first-episode schizophrenia who received blonanserin monotherapy.Patients were divided into those with PNS and without PNS,based on the Brief Psychiatric Rating Scale(BPRS)negative symptoms subscale scores.Additionally,patients were labeled as high-dose and low-dose was evaluated through the incidence of adverse drug reactions(ADRs).RESULTS A total of 653 patients were included in the analysis,with 613 completing the study.The BPRS total score decreased significantly from 47.94±16.31 at baseline to 26.88±9.47 at 12 weeks(P<0.001).A significant interaction of PNS×dose×time was observed for BPRS total scores(F=3.47,P=0.040)and negative symptom subscale scores(F=6.76,P=0.002).In the PNS group,the high-dose group showed greater reductions in BPRS total scores(P=0.001)and negative symptom subscale scores(P=0.003)than the low-dose group in week 12.In the without PNS group,no significant difference was observed between the high-dose and low-dose groups at any visit.Most adverse reactions were mild or moderate,with extrapyramidal symptoms(9.3%)being most common;1.5%of patients gained≥7%body weight at 12 weeks.CONCLUSION Blonanserin effectively alleviated the clinical symptoms of first-episode schizophrenia with an acceptable safety profile.High-dose blonanserin is particularly beneficial for patients with PNS in the acute phase of first-episode schizophrenia.However,due to the limitation of ADR reporting the real world,the ADR incidence observed in this study may be underestimated.

文摘Transient negative capacitance(NC),as an available dynamic charge effect achieved in resistor-ferroelectric capacitor(R-FEC)circuits,has triggered a series of theoretical and experimental works focusing on its physical mechanism and device application.Here,we analytically derived the effects of different mechanical conditions on the transient NC behaviors in the R-FEC circuit based on the phenomenological model.It shows that the ferroelectric capacitor can exhibit either NC(i.e.,“single NC”and“double NC”)or positive capacitance,depending on the mechanical condition and temperature.Further numerical calculations show that the voltage drop caused by NC can be effectively controlled by temperature,applied stress,or strain.The relationship between NC voltage drop and system configurations including external resistance,dynamical coefficient of polarization,and input voltage are presented,showing diverse strategies to manipulate the NC effect.These results provide theoretical guidelines for rational design and efficient control of NC-related electronic devices.
文摘Referring to the questionnaire survey and semi-structured interview,this paper explores the negative transfer of mother tongue in junior high school English writing and analyzes the existing problems.The results show that the negative transfer of mother tongue has a significant impact on junior high school students’English writing.The main errors are found at four levels:morphological level,lexical level,syntactic level and textual level.In order to deal with the errors caused by the negative transfer of mother tongue in students’English writing,it is suggested that teachers create an English language environment for students as far as possible and help students form English thinking,use contrastive analysis teaching strategies,making a comparison between English and Chinese expressions and cultural differences and pay attention to the training of students’basic knowledge of English to help students improve their English writing ability.

文摘Triple-negative breast cancer(TNBC)represents an aggressive breast cancer subtype with poor prognosis and limited targeted treatment options.This investigation examined the anticancer potential of Caerulomycin A(Cae A),a natural compound derived from marine actinomycetes,against TNBC.Cae A demonstrated selective inhibition of viability and proliferation in TNBC cell lines,including 4T1,MDA-MB-231,and MDA-MB-468,through apoptosis induction.Mechanistic analyses revealed that the compound induced sustained endoplasmic reticulum(ER)stress and subsequent upregulation of C/EBP homologous protein(CHOP)expression,resulting in mitochondrial damage-mediated apoptosis.Inhibition of ER stress or CHOP expression knockdown reversed mitochondrial damage and apoptosis,highlighting the essential role of ER stress and CHOP in Cae A's anti-tumor mechanism.Both oxygen consumption rate(OCR)and extracellular acidification rate(ECAR)decreased in TNBC cells following Cae A treatment,indicating reduced mitochondrial respiratory and glycolytic capacities.This diminished energy metabolism potentially triggers ER stress and subsequent apoptosis.Furthermore,Cae A exhibited significant anti-tumor effects in the 4T1 tumor model in vivo without apparent toxicity.The compound also effectively inhibited human TNBC organoid growth.These results indicate that Cae A may serve as a potential therapeutic agent for TNBC,with its efficacy likely mediated through the disruption of glucose metabolism and the induction of ER stress-associated apoptosis.
