Abstract
2D organic-inorganic hybrid perovskites (OIHPs) have shown great promise in direct X-ray detection. The development of high-performance passive X-ray detectors in 2D OIHPs calls for an increase in material density while maintaining structural polarity, which is becoming quite challenging. Here, a high-density, polar 2D alternating-cation-intercalated (ACI) perovskite, (4-AP)Cs2Pb2I8 (B, 4-AP = 4-amidinopyridinium), capable of addressing this problem is successfully constructed by introducing heavy Cs+ into the interlayer space of an aromatic Dion-Jacobson (DJ) perovskite (4-AP)PbI4 (A). Through such a DJ-to-ACI design, the newly developed 2D OIHP B not only significantly increases its density to 4.23 g cm-3 (even higher than that of 3D MAPbI3) but also crystallizes in a polar space group (Ama2), which further leads to enhanced X-ray attenuation and an obvious polar photovoltage (1.1 V) under X-ray irradiation. As a result, X-ray detectors fabricated by high-quality single crystals of B exhibit excellent and stable detection performance under self-powered mode with a high sensitivity of 107 μC Gy-1 cm-2 and a low detection limit of 289 nGy s-1. This work provides implications for the future exploration and regulation of novel ACI OIHPs for high-performance photoelectronic devices.

Multi-axial Self-driven X-ray Detection by a Two-dimensional Biaxial Hybrid Organic-Inorganic Perovskite Ferroelectric. Angew Chem Int Ed Engl 2024:e202407305.

Abstract
Metal halide perovskite ferroelectrics combining spontaneous polarization and excellent semiconducting properties is an ideal platform for enabling self-driven X-ray detection, however, achievements to date have been only based on uniaxiality, which increases the complexity of device fabrication. Multi-axial ferroelectric materials have multiple equivalent polarization directions, making them potentially amenable to multi-axial self-driven X-ray detection, but the report on these types of materials is still a huge blank. Herein, a high-quality (BA)2(EA)2Pb3I10 (1) biaxial ferroelectric single crystal was successfully grown, which exhibited significant spontaneous polarization along the c-axis and b-axis. Under X-ray irradiation, bulk photovoltaic effect (BPVE) was exhibited along both the c-axis and b-axis, with open circuit voltages (Voc) of 0.23 V and 0.22 V, respectively. Then, the BPVE revealed along the inversion of polarized direction with the polarized electric fields. Intriguingly, due to the BPVE of 1, 1 achieved multi-axial self-driven X-ray detection for the first time (c-axis and b-axis) with relatively high sensitivities and ultralow detection limits (17.2 nGyair s-1 and 19.4 nGyair s-1, respectively). This work provides a reference for the subsequent use of multi-axial ferroelectricity for multi-axial self-driven optoelectronic detection.

Abstract
Objective: To evaluate the efficacy and safety of the subthreshold micropulse laser (SMPL) combined with ranibizumab in treating diabetic macular edema (DME). Methods: This was a prospective randomized controlled study. Patients diagnosed with DME in the Ophthalmology Department of Beijing Hospital were enrolled from January 2020 to December 2022. Patients were randomized in a ratio of 1∶1 using a table of random numbers into the ranibizumab monotherapy group and the SMPL combined with ranibizumab therapy group. We compared the changes of best-corrected visual acuity, central macular thickness measured by optical coherence tomography and optical coherence tomography angiography parameters, including the vessel density of the superficial and deep capillary plexus (DCP), foveal avascular zone size and peripapillary vessel density, at baseline, 6 and 12 months after the treatment. After 12 months of follow-up, fundus fluorescein angiography results, adverse events, and the number of injections or laser therapies were recorded. The Fisher's exact test and group t-test were used for statistical analysis. Results: Seventy-two patients (72 eyes) were enrolled, with a mean age of (61.1±8.2) years. Patients in the combination therapy group included 19 males and 17 females, while patients in the ranibizumab monotherapy group were 17 males and 19 females. There was no statistically significant difference in baseline characteristics between the two groups (P>0.05). A significant improvement in best-corrected visual acuity was shown in both groups at 6 and 12 months [(58.5±12.9) and (58.2±12.2) ETDRS letters in the combination therapy group, and (63.3±13.1) and (63.8±12.5) ETDRS letters in the ranibizumab monotherapy group]. A significant reduction in central macular thickness was shown in both groups at 6 and 12 months [(451.0±185.5) and (380.4±159.3)μm in the combination therapy group, and (387.5±135.5) and (372.8±146.1)μm in the ranibizumab monotherapy group]. However, there was no significant difference between groups at each timepoint (all P>0.05). At 12 months, the vessel density of the superficial capillary plexus showed no statistical difference compared to the baseline value in each group or between groups (42.6%±5.9% in the ranibizumab monotherapy group and 42.2%±5.5% in the combination therapy group, P>0.05). The vessel density of the DCP in the combination therapy group significantly increased to 47.5%±5.6% at 12 months, significantly different from that in the ranibizumab group (43.4%±5.1%; P<0.05). The foveal avascular zone size in the ranibizumab monotherapy group reduced to (0.32±0.13) mm2, significantly different from that in the combination therapy group [(0.34±0.16) mm2] at 12 months (P<0.05). Patients in the ranibizumab monotherapy group received (7.3±2.5) intravitreal injections, while patients in the combination therapy group received 3 injections. No unfavorable outcomes on fundus fluorescein angiography or systemic or topical severe adverse events were observed during the follow-up. Conclusions: The SMPL combined with intravitreal ranibizumab injections was effective and safe in treating DME patients. The combination treatment significantly reduced the number of injections and improved the vessel density of the DCP and macular ischemia, compared to the ranibizumab monotherapy.

Soc Psychiatry Psychiatr Epidemiol 2024:10.1007/s00127-024-02713-2. [PMID: 38951154 DOI: 10.1007/s00127-024-02713-2] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Grants] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Submit a Manuscript] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 04/02/2023] [Accepted: 06/24/2024] [Indexed: 07/03/2024]
Abstract
PURPOSE Anxiety sensitivity (AS) refers to fear of anxiety-related sensory arousal and has been revealed to be associated with increased psychological distress and mental problems. Although Anxiety Sensitivity Index-3 (ASI-3) has been confirmed to be effective in evaluating this construct, whether it is consistently applicable in college students is still elusive. The present study aimed to examine the psychometric properties and measurement invariance of Chinese version of ASI-3 (C-ASI-3) among college students experiencing campus lockdown due to novel coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19) pandemic. METHODS A total of 1532 Chinese college students (397, 25.9% males) aged between 16 and 25 were included in this study. Confirmatory factor analysis (CFA) was used to verify the factor structure of C-ASI-3. Multi-group CFA was conducted for analysis of measurement invariance with regard to gender. McDonald's omega values were computed for examination of scale reliability. For criterion, convergent, and divergent validity, average variance extracted (AVE) values for C-ASI-3 subscales, difference between square root of AVE for each factor and inter-factor correlation, as well as pearson correlation and partial correlation between the C-ASI-3 and other three scales, including the Depression, Anxiety, and Stress Scale-21 (DASS-21), the State-Trait Anxiety Inventory (STAI), and the Fear of COVID-19 scale (FCV-19 S) were evaluated. RESULTS The C-ASI-3 presented a three-factor scale structure with fit indices being as follows: χ2/df = 11.590, CFI = 0.938, RMSEA = 0.083, SRMR = 0.042. Strict measurement invariance was reached across gender. Regarding convergent validity, the C-ASI-3 had a high correlation with the DASS-21 (r = 0.597, p < 0.01) and the STAI (r = 0.504, p < 0.01). All AVE values for C-ASI-3 subscales were above 0.5. In terms of divergent validity, the C-ASI-3 had medium correlation with the FCV-19 S (r = 0.360, p < 0.01). Square of root of AVE for each factor was higher that inter-factor correlation. McDonald's omega values of the three dimensions ranged from 0.898 ~ 0.958. CONCLUSION The C-ASI-3 has acceptable psychometric properties among college students. College students with different gender have consistent understanding on the scale construct.

Dion-Jacobson Type Lead-Free Double Perovskite with Ultra-Narrow Aromatic Interlayer Spacing for Highly Sensitive and Stable X-ray Detection. SMALL (WEINHEIM AN DER BERGSTRASSE, GERMANY) 2024; 20:e2312281.

Abstract
The low-toxic and environmentally friendly 2D lead-free perovskite has made significant progress in the exploration of "green" X-ray detectors. However, the gap in detection performance between them and their lead-based analogues remains a matter of concern that cannot be ignored. To reduce this gap, shortening the interlayer spacing to accelerate the migration and collection of X-ray carriers is a promising strategy. Herein, a Dion-Jacobson (DJ) lead-free double perovskite (4-AP)2AgBiBr8 (1, 4-AP = 4-amidinopyridine) with an ultra-narrow interlayer spacing of 3.0 Å, is constructed by utilizing π-conjugated aromatic spacers. Strikingly, the subsequent enhanced carrier transport and increased crystal density lead to X-ray detectors based on bulk single crystals of 1 with a high sensitivity of 1117.3 µC Gy-1 cm-2, superior to the vast majority of similar double perovskites. In particular, the tight connection of the inorganic layers by the divalent cations enhances structural rigidity and stability, further endowing 1 detector with ultralow dark current drift (3.06 × 10-8 nA cm-1 s-1 V-1, 80 V), excellent multiple cycles switching X-ray irradiation stability, as well as long-term environmental stability (maintains over 94% photoresponse after 90 days). This work brings lead-free double perovskites one step closer to realizing efficient practical green applications.

Abstract
Metal halide perovskites have outperformed conventional inorganic semiconductors in direct X-ray detection due to their ease of synthesis and intriguing photoelectric properties. However, the operational instability caused by severe ion migration under a high external electric field is still a big concern for the practical application of perovskite detectors. Here, we report a 2D (BPEA)2PbI4 (BPEA = R-1-(4-bromophenyl)ethylammonium) perovskite with Br-substituted aromatic spacer capable of introducing abundant interactions, e.g., the molecular electrostatic forces between Br atoms and aromatic rings and halogen bonds of Br-I, in the interlayer space, which effectively suppresses ion migration and thus enables superior operational stability. Constructing direct X-ray detectors based on high-quality single crystals of (BPEA)2PbI4 results in a high sensitivity of 1,003 μC Gy-1 cm-2, a low detection limit of 366 nGy s-1, and an ultralow baseline drift of 3.48 × 10-8 nA cm-1 s-1 V-1 at 80 V bias. More strikingly, it also exhibits exceptional operational stability under high flux, long-time X-ray irradiation, and large working voltage. This work shows an integration of multiple interlayer interactions to stabilize perovskite X-ray detectors, providing new insights into the future design of perovskite optoelectronic devices toward practical application.

Abstract
AIM To investigate the value of the combined model based on spectral quantitative parameters, radiomics features, imaging and clinical features to distinguish the benign and malignant pure ground-glass nodules (pGGNs). MATERIALS AND METHODS A retrospective analysis of 113 patients with single pGGNs who underwent non-contrast enhancement examination of the chest on dual-layer spectral detector CT (SDCT) with two weeks before surgery was performed in our hospital. These patients were randomized into training and testing cohorts. Regions of interest based on the conventional 120 kVp poly energetic image of SDCT were outlined. Then the optimal features were extracted and selected to construct radiomic model. A combined model combining vacuole sign, electron density (ED) value and the rad score of radiomics model was built by logistic regression analysis. A nomogram was built in a training cohort and the performance of the models was evaluated in the training and testing cohorts by receiver operating characteristic curves, calibration curves and decision curve analysis. RESULTS ED value [Odds Ratio (OR):1.100; 95% confidence interval (CI):1.027-1.166)] and vacuole sign (OR:3.343; 95% CI:0.881-12.680) were independent risk factors for the malignant pGGNs in the training cohort. A combined model was constructed using radiomics features, ED value and vacuole sign. And the AUC was 0.910 (95% CI, 0.825-0.997) and 0.850 (95% CI, 0.714-0.981) in the training and testing cohorts, respectively. CONCLUSION The combined model based on SDCT has high specificity and sensitivity for distinguishing the benign and malignant pGGNs, suggesting the model can further improve diagnostic performance, and using a nomogram is helpful for individualized predictions.

Abstract
Compromises between enhanced on-targeting reactivity and precise real-time monitoring in the tumor microenvironment (TME) are the main roadblocks for catalytic cancer therapy. The hallmark of a high level of hydrogen peroxide (H2O2) and acidic extracellular environment of the hypoxia solid tumor can underpin therapeutic and tracking performance. Herein, this work provides an activatable wintersweet-like nanohybrid consisting of titanium (Ti) doped cerium vanadate nanorods with the modification of polypyrrole (PPy) nanoparticles (CeVO4-Ti@PPy) for combinatorial therapies of breast carcinoma. The Ti dopants in the size-controllable CeVO4 nanorods lower the energy barrier (0.5 eV) of the rate-determining steps and elaborate peroxidase-like (POD-like) activities to improve the generation of toxic hydroxyl radical (·OH) according to the density functional theory (DFT) calculation. The multiple enzyme-like activities, including the intrinsic glutathione peroxidase (GPx) and catalase (CAT), achieve a record-high therapeutic efficiency. Coupling this oxidative stress with the photothermal effects of PPy enables enhanced catalytic tumor necrosis. The exterior PPy heterogeneous structure can be further doped with protons in the local acidic environment to intensify photoacoustic signals, allowing the non-invasive accurate tracking of tumors. The theranostic performance displayed negligible attenuated signals in near-infrared (NIR) windows. This organic-inorganic nanohybrid with a heterogeneous structure provides the potential to improve the overall outcomes of catalytic therapy.

Abstract
The presence of non-reactive phosphorus (NRP) in environmental waters presents a potential risk of eutrophication and poses challenges for the removal of all phosphorus (P) fractions. This study presents the first investigation on the removal performance and mechanism of three model NRP compounds, sodium tripolyphosphate (STPP), adenosine 5'-monophosphate (AMP) and 2-phosphonobutane-1,2,4-tricarboxylic acid (PBTC), in the sediment microbial fuel cell-floating treatment wetland (SMFC-FTW). Coupling SMFC with plants proved to be effective at removing NRP via electrochemical oxidation and plant uptake, particularly the challenging-to-degrade phosphonates that contain C-P bonds. Compared with the control group, the removal efficiencies of the model NRP in SMFC were observed to increase by 11.9%-20.8%. SMFC promoted the conversion of NRP to soluble reactive phosphorus (sRP) and the transfer of P to sediment. Furthermore, the electrochemical process enhanced both plant growth and P uptake, and increased P assimilation by 72.6%. The presence of plants in the bioelectrochemical system influenced the occurrence and fate of P by efficiently assimilating sRP and supporting microbial transformation of NRP. Consequently, plants enhanced the removal efficiencies of all P fractions in the overlying water. This study demonstrated that SMFC-FTW is a promising technology to remove various NRP species in environmental waters.

Abstract
College students have a high prevalence of nomophobia. However, research on the effects of emotion regulation and resilience on nomophobia in China is lacking. This research investigated how cognitive reappraisal and expressive suppression strategies directly and indirectly affect nomophobia through resilience. Therefore, from March to May 2023, 756 university student volunteers (21.4 % men) were selected from a university in northeastern China for a questionnaire survey. Our findings suggest that college students' resilience has a masking effect on the relationship between cognitive reappraisal and nomophobia and can attenuate the negative effect of the frequency of using cognitive reappraisal strategies on nomophobia. The frequency of expressive suppression strategies directly and positively affected nomophobia. Early psychological interventions targeting resilience might be potentially effective in alleviating nomophobia among college students.

Abstract
Magnetic carbon-based catalysts with environmental friendliness have exhibited prominent effects on advanced oxidation processes. Herein, a multi-level FeCo/N-doped carbon nanosheet (FeCo/CNS) was synthesized by facile impregnation iron-cobalt salt onto cotton and followed by confined pyrolysis. We identified excellent advantages of the modified FeCo/CNS materials: (i) The convenience of the synthesis method and (ii) The dual effect of sterilization and contaminant degradation achieved through the FeCo/CNS-activated Peroxymonosulfate (PMS). The comparative experimental showed that FeCo/CNS could provide favorable catalytic performance, completely removing bisphenol A (BPA) and tetracycline (TC) within 5 min. Moreover, the potent sterilization properties against Staphylococcus aureus and Escherichia coli were also verified. Analysis of the degradation pathway confirmed the existence of intermediates, and toxicological research demonstrated that the toxicity of the degradation intermediates of BPA gradually decreased over time. Our research provided an excellent application of FeCo/CNS in PMS oxidation and sterilization inactivation.

Abstract
Biofouling remains a persistent challenge within the domains of biomedicine, tissue engineering, marine industry, and membrane separation processes. Multifunctional hydrogels have garnered substantial attention due to their complex three-dimensional architecture, hydrophilicity, biocompatibility, and flexibility. These hydrogels have shown notable advances across various engineering disciplines. The antifouling efficacy of hydrogels typically covers a range of strategies to mitigate or inhibit the adhesion of particulate matter, biological entities, or extraneous pollutants onto their external or internal surfaces. This review provides a comprehensive review of the antifouling properties and applications of hydrogels. We first focus on elucidating the fundamental principles for the inherent resistance of hydrogels to fouling. This is followed by a comprehensive investigation of the methods employed to enhance the antifouling properties enabled by the hydrogels' composition, network structure, conductivity, photothermal properties, release of reactive oxygen species (ROS), and incorporation of silicon and fluorine compounds. Additionally, we explore the emerging prospects of antifouling hydrogels to alleviate the severe challenges posed by surface contamination, membrane separation and wound dressings. The inclusion of detailed mechanistic insights and the judicious selection of antifouling hydrogels are geared toward identifying extant gaps that must be bridged to meet practical requisites while concurrently addressing long-term antifouling applications.

Abstract
Neovascular age-related macular degeneration (nAMD) is a leading cause of blindness in the elderly, and anti-vascular endothelial growth factor (VEGF) therapy is currently the primary treatment approach. However, the real-world effectiveness of nAMD treatment is not always satisfactory and faces various challenges. Frequent administration and follow-up burdens can lead to decreased patient compliance during long-term treatment, resulting in suboptimal outcomes. Some lesions exhibit poor or no response to anti-VEGF treatment, leading to difficulties in maintaining or even declining visual acuity. Factors such as lesion fibrosis and tissue atrophy can contribute to visual deterioration. Therefore, standardizing and individualizing treatment plans, along with enhancing comprehensive monitoring and management throughout the disease course, are crucial improvement measures. The evidence-based guidelines for diagnosis and treatment of age-related macular degeneration in China, released in 2023, provide guidance for standardized clinical diagnosis and treatment. Meanwhile, research and development of new drugs and administration methods are anticipated for the future.

Abstract
Reactive oxygen species (ROS) play an important role in biological milieu. Recently, the rapid growth in our understanding of ROS and their promise in antibacterial applications has generated tremendous interest in the combination of ROS generators with bulk hydrogels. Hydrogels represent promising supporters for ROS generators and can locally confine the nanoscale distribution of ROS generators whilst also promoting cellular integration via biomaterial-cell interactions. This review highlights recent efforts and progress in developing hydrogels derived from biological macromolecules with embedded ROS generators with a focus on antimicrobial applications. Initially, an overview of passive and active antibacterial hydrogels is provided to show the significance of proper hydrogel selection and design. These are followed by an in-depth discussion of the various approaches for ROS generation in hydrogels. The structural engineering and fabrication of ROS-laden hydrogels are given with a focus on their biomedical applications in therapeutics and diagnosis. Additionally, we discuss how a compromise needs to be sought between ROS generation and removal for maximizing the efficacy of therapeutic treatment. Finally, the current challenges and potential routes toward commercialization in this rapidly evolving field are discussed, focusing on the potential translation of laboratory research outcomes to real-world clinical outcomes.

Abstract
As a biodegradable and biocompatible protein derived from collagen, gelatin has been extensively exploited as a fundamental component of biological scaffolds and drug delivery systems for precise medicine. The easily engineered gelatin holds great promise in formulating various delivery systems to protect and enhance the efficacy of drugs for improving the safety and effectiveness of numerous pharmaceuticals. The remarkable biocompatibility and adjustable mechanical properties of gelatin permit the construction of active 3D scaffolds to accelerate the regeneration of injured tissues and organs. In this Review, we delve into diverse strategies for fabricating and functionalizing gelatin-based structures, which are applicable to gene and drug delivery as well as tissue engineering. We emphasized the advantages of various gelatin derivatives, including methacryloyl gelatin, polyethylene glycol-modified gelatin, thiolated gelatin, and alendronate-modified gelatin. These derivatives exhibit excellent physicochemical and biological properties, allowing the fabrication of tailor-made structures for biomedical applications. Additionally, we explored the latest developments in the modulation of their physicochemical properties by combining additive materials and manufacturing platforms, outlining the design of multifunctional gelatin-based micro-, nano-, and macrostructures. While discussing the current limitations, we also addressed the challenges that need to be overcome for clinical translation, including high manufacturing costs, limited application scenarios, and potential immunogenicity. This Review provides insight into how the structural and chemical engineering of gelatin can be leveraged to pave the way for significant advancements in biomedical applications and the improvement of patient outcomes.

Effluent quality prediction of the sewage treatment based on a hybrid neural network model: Comparison and application. JOURNAL OF ENVIRONMENTAL MANAGEMENT 2024; 351:119900. [PMID: 38157580 DOI: 10.1016/j.jenvman.2023.119900] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 04/26/2023] [Revised: 12/17/2023] [Accepted: 12/19/2023] [Indexed: 01/03/2024]
Abstract
The accurate prediction and assessment of effluent quality in wastewater treatment plants (WWTPs) are paramount for the efficacy of sewage treatment processes. Neural network models have exhibited promise in enhancing prediction accuracy by simulating and analyzing diverse influent parameters. In this study, a back propagation neural network hybrid model based on a tent chaotic map and sparrow search algorithm (Tent_BP_SSA) was developed to predict the effluent quality of sewage treatment processes. The prediction performance of the propose hybrid model was compared with traditional neural network models using five performance indicators (MAE, RMSE, SSE, MAPE and R2). Specifically, in comparison with the prior Tent_BP_SSA, Tent_BP_SSA2 demonstrated notable enhancements, with the R2 increasing from 0.9512 to 0.9672, while MAE, RMSE, SSE, and MAPE decreased by 9.62%, 18.84%, 24.80%, and 47.10%, respectively. These indicators collectively affirm that the utilization of higher-order input parameters ensures improved accuracy of the Tent_BP_SSA2 hybrid model in predicting effluent quality. Moreover, the Tent_BP_SSA2 model exhibited robust prediction ability (R2 of 0.9246) when applied to assess the effluent quality of an actual sewage treatment plant. The incorporation of integrated models comprising the sparrow search optimizing algorithm, tent chaotic mapping, and higher-order magnitude decomposition of input parameters has demonstrated the capacity to enhance the accuracy of effluent quality prediction. This study illuminates novel perspectives on the prediction of effluent quality and the assessment of effluent warnings in WWTPs.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Sodium-glucose co-transporter-2 (SGLT2) inhibitors reduce progression of chronic kidney disease and the risk of cardiovascular morbidity and mortality in a wide range of patients. However, their effects on kidney disease progression in some patients with chronic kidney disease are unclear because few clinical kidney outcomes occurred among such patients in the completed trials. In particular, some guidelines stratify their level of recommendation about who should be treated with SGLT2 inhibitors based on diabetes status and albuminuria. We aimed to assess the effects of empagliflozin on progression of chronic kidney disease both overall and among specific types of participants in the EMPA-KIDNEY trial. METHODS EMPA-KIDNEY, a randomised, controlled, phase 3 trial, was conducted at 241 centres in eight countries (Canada, China, Germany, Italy, Japan, Malaysia, the UK, and the USA), and included individuals aged 18 years or older with an estimated glomerular filtration rate (eGFR) of 20 to less than 45 mL/min per 1·73 m2, or with an eGFR of 45 to less than 90 mL/min per 1·73 m2 with a urinary albumin-to-creatinine ratio (uACR) of 200 mg/g or higher. We explored the effects of 10 mg oral empagliflozin once daily versus placebo on the annualised rate of change in estimated glomerular filtration rate (eGFR slope), a tertiary outcome. We studied the acute slope (from randomisation to 2 months) and chronic slope (from 2 months onwards) separately, using shared parameter models to estimate the latter. Analyses were done in all randomly assigned participants by intention to treat. EMPA-KIDNEY is registered at ClinicalTrials.gov, NCT03594110. FINDINGS Between May 15, 2019, and April 16, 2021, 6609 participants were randomly assigned and then followed up for a median of 2·0 years (IQR 1·5-2·4). Prespecified subgroups of eGFR included 2282 (34·5%) participants with an eGFR of less than 30 mL/min per 1·73 m2, 2928 (44·3%) with an eGFR of 30 to less than 45 mL/min per 1·73 m2, and 1399 (21·2%) with an eGFR 45 mL/min per 1·73 m2 or higher. Prespecified subgroups of uACR included 1328 (20·1%) with a uACR of less than 30 mg/g, 1864 (28·2%) with a uACR of 30 to 300 mg/g, and 3417 (51·7%) with a uACR of more than 300 mg/g. Overall, allocation to empagliflozin caused an acute 2·12 mL/min per 1·73 m2 (95% CI 1·83-2·41) reduction in eGFR, equivalent to a 6% (5-6) dip in the first 2 months. After this, it halved the chronic slope from -2·75 to -1·37 mL/min per 1·73 m2 per year (relative difference 50%, 95% CI 42-58). The absolute and relative benefits of empagliflozin on the magnitude of the chronic slope varied significantly depending on diabetes status and baseline levels of eGFR and uACR. In particular, the absolute difference in chronic slopes was lower in patients with lower baseline uACR, but because this group progressed more slowly than those with higher uACR, this translated to a larger relative difference in chronic slopes in this group (86% [36-136] reduction in the chronic slope among those with baseline uACR <30 mg/g compared with a 29% [19-38] reduction for those with baseline uACR ≥2000 mg/g; ptrend<0·0001). INTERPRETATION Empagliflozin slowed the rate of progression of chronic kidney disease among all types of participant in the EMPA-KIDNEY trial, including those with little albuminuria. Albuminuria alone should not be used to determine whether to treat with an SGLT2 inhibitor. FUNDING Boehringer Ingelheim and Eli Lilly.

Abstract
BACKGROUND The EMPA-KIDNEY trial showed that empagliflozin reduced the risk of the primary composite outcome of kidney disease progression or cardiovascular death in patients with chronic kidney disease mainly through slowing progression. We aimed to assess how effects of empagliflozin might differ by primary kidney disease across its broad population. METHODS EMPA-KIDNEY, a randomised, controlled, phase 3 trial, was conducted at 241 centres in eight countries (Canada, China, Germany, Italy, Japan, Malaysia, the UK, and the USA). Patients were eligible if their estimated glomerular filtration rate (eGFR) was 20 to less than 45 mL/min per 1·73 m2, or 45 to less than 90 mL/min per 1·73 m2 with a urinary albumin-to-creatinine ratio (uACR) of 200 mg/g or higher at screening. They were randomly assigned (1:1) to 10 mg oral empagliflozin once daily or matching placebo. Effects on kidney disease progression (defined as a sustained ≥40% eGFR decline from randomisation, end-stage kidney disease, a sustained eGFR below 10 mL/min per 1·73 m2, or death from kidney failure) were assessed using prespecified Cox models, and eGFR slope analyses used shared parameter models. Subgroup comparisons were performed by including relevant interaction terms in models. EMPA-KIDNEY is registered with ClinicalTrials.gov, NCT03594110. FINDINGS Between May 15, 2019, and April 16, 2021, 6609 participants were randomly assigned and followed up for a median of 2·0 years (IQR 1·5-2·4). Prespecified subgroupings by primary kidney disease included 2057 (31·1%) participants with diabetic kidney disease, 1669 (25·3%) with glomerular disease, 1445 (21·9%) with hypertensive or renovascular disease, and 1438 (21·8%) with other or unknown causes. Kidney disease progression occurred in 384 (11·6%) of 3304 patients in the empagliflozin group and 504 (15·2%) of 3305 patients in the placebo group (hazard ratio 0·71 [95% CI 0·62-0·81]), with no evidence that the relative effect size varied significantly by primary kidney disease (pheterogeneity=0·62). The between-group difference in chronic eGFR slopes (ie, from 2 months to final follow-up) was 1·37 mL/min per 1·73 m2 per year (95% CI 1·16-1·59), representing a 50% (42-58) reduction in the rate of chronic eGFR decline. This relative effect of empagliflozin on chronic eGFR slope was similar in analyses by different primary kidney diseases, including in explorations by type of glomerular disease and diabetes (p values for heterogeneity all >0·1). INTERPRETATION In a broad range of patients with chronic kidney disease at risk of progression, including a wide range of non-diabetic causes of chronic kidney disease, empagliflozin reduced risk of kidney disease progression. Relative effect sizes were broadly similar irrespective of the cause of primary kidney disease, suggesting that SGLT2 inhibitors should be part of a standard of care to minimise risk of kidney failure in chronic kidney disease.

Abstract
Magnetic carbon-based catalysts are promising materials for advanced oxidation processes, offering both high catalytic activity and environmental friendliness, and hold great potential in environmental remediation. In this work, Fe and Co zeolite imidazole frameworks (ZIFs) derived micron-sized magnetic porous carbon beads (MPCBs) were prepared by phase inversion and following the carbonization procedure, and the morphological and structural characteristics of the MPCBs were confirmed. The presence of pores and channels in the MPCBs provides a specific microenvironment for the for the catalysis of the core. Bisphenol A (BPA) was selected for the targeted pollutant, and the catalytic experiments confirmed that the effective catalytic activity of MPCBs in the presence of peroxymonosulfate (PMS), which could almost completely degrade BPA in 20 min with a reaction rate of 0.368 min-1. Furthermore, the MPCBs were used to effectively bacterial inactivation. Intermediate products of the BPA degradation process were validated and the toxicological studies showed a gradual decrease in toxicity, indicating effective reduction of potential hazards. The macroscopic preparation methods we developed for MPCBs that is promising for industrial applications and has the potential to cope with complex environmental remediation.

A sustainable integrated anoxic/aerobic bio-contactor process for simultaneously in-situ deodorization and pollutants removal from decentralized domestic sewage. Heliyon 2023; 9:e22339. [PMID: 38045187 PMCID: PMC10689935 DOI: 10.1016/j.heliyon.2023.e22339] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 09/29/2023] [Revised: 11/01/2023] [Accepted: 11/09/2023] [Indexed: 12/05/2023] Open
Abstract
The integration of anoxic filter and aerobic rotating biological contactor shows promise in treating rural domestic sewage. It offers high efficiency, low sludge production, and strong shock resistance. However, further optimization is needed for odor control, pollutant removal, and power consumption. In this study, the investigation on a one-pump-drive lab-scale device of retention anoxic filter (RAF) integrated with hydraulic rotating bio-contactor (HRBC) and its optimal operation mode were conducted. During the 50-day operation, optimal operation parameters were investigated. These parameters included a 175 % reflux ratio (RR), 5-h hydraulic retention time in the RAF (HRTRAF), and 2.5-h hydraulic retention time in the HRBC (HRTHRBC). Those conditions characterized a micro-aerobic environment (DO: 0.6-0.8 mg/L) in RAF, inducing improved deodorization (89.3 % sulfide removal) and denitrification (85.9 % nitrate removal) simultaneously. During the operation period, 84.79 ± 3.87 % COD, 82.71± 2.06 % NH 4 + -N, 74.83 ± 2.06 % TN, 91.68± 2.12 % S2-, and 89.04 ± 1.68 % TON were removed in RAF-HRBC. Based on large amount of operational data, organic loading rate curves of RAF-HRBC were validated and calibrated as a crucial reference to aid in full-scale designs and applications. The richness of microbial community was improved in both RAF and HRBC. In the RAF, the autotrophic sulfide-oxidizing nitrate-reducing bacteria (a-son) and heterotrophic sulfide-oxidizing nitrate-reducing bacteria (h-son) were selectively enriched, which intensified the sulfide removal and denitrification process. In the two-stage HRBC system, the 1st stage RBC was primarily composed of organics degraders, while the 2nd stage RBC consisted mainly of ammonium oxidizers. Overall, the integrated RAF-HRBC process holds significant potential for simultaneously improving pollutant removal and in-situ odor mitigation in decentralized domestic sewage treatment. This process specifically contributes to enhancing environmental sustainability and operational efficiency.

Abstract
The influent quality is an important factor affecting the nutrients removal and operational stability of denitrifying phosphorus removal (DPR) system. This study investigated the effects of calcium ion (Ca2+) on the nutrients removal, nitrogen oxide (N2O) release, microbial community, and quorum sensing in DPR system. Results showed that high accumulation of Ca2+ had a significant impact on the carbon footprint of DPR system. Specifically, N2O release reached 2.11 mg/L under Ca2+ of 150 mg/L, which represented 214.93% increase compared to 0 mg/L of Ca2+. The DPR system demonstrated its adaptability to elevated Ca2+ concentrations by modifying key enzyme activities involved in nitrogen and phosphorus removal, altering the microbial community structure, and adjusting the type and content of signal molecules. These findings hold significant implications for understanding the stress mechanism of Ca2+ on DPR system, ultimately aiding in the maintenance and enhancement of stable operational performance in biological wastewater treatment process.

Abstract
The 2D aromatic Dion-Jacobson (DJ) hybrid perovskites combining advantages of high stability, enhanced light absorption, and favorable charge transport, are regarded as a kind of very promising materials for high-performance optoelectronic applications. However, due to the rigidity and large size of the aromatic ring, how to further reduce the interlayer distance to achieve better carrier transport and wider light response window still remain extremely challenging. Here, an interesting DJ-to-ACI (alternating-cations-interaction) reconstruction in 2D aromatic perovskite is first realized by inserting MA+ cations into (4-AP)PbI4 (1, 4-AP = 4-amidinopyridinium), successfully constructing an unprecedented ACI perovskite of (4-AP)(MA)2 Pb2 I8 (2, MA = methylamine). Remarkably, such a DJ-to-ACI reconstruction not only effectively reduces the interlayer spacing from 3.89 to 3.15 Å but also alleviates the structural distortion, which jointly causes a significant bandgap narrowing from 2.22 to 1.95 eV (smaller than all current 2D monolayered DJ perovskites), hence achieving a broad photodetection window over 660 nm. This work reports a novel narrow bandgap 2D ACI perovskite derived from the aromatic DJ motif, which sheds light on future regulations on the structure and properties of hybrid perovskites.

Abstract
The intrinsic integration of structural flexibility, chiroptical activity, and photoelectric properties endows the two-dimensional (2D) chiral hybrid perovskites (CHPs) with significant application potential in chiroptoelectronics and spintronics. However, the scarcity of suitable chiral organic ligands severely hinders their extensive construction, necessitating the development of new strategies for designing 2D CHPs. Herein, by exploiting a half substitution method, we created a pair of 2D CHPs with alternating cations in the interlayer space (ACI), (R/S-PPA)(PA)PbBr4 (2R/2S, PPA = 1-phenylpropylamine, PA = n-pentylamine), from the achiral Ruddlesden-Popper (RP) (PA)2PbBr4 (1). The successful chirality transfer induces 2R/2S to crystallize in the chiral P212121 space group and thus acquire appealing chiroptical activity. Consequently, the single-crystal devices of 2R exhibit good distinguishability to the left- and right-handed circularly polarized 405 nm lights with a photocurrent dissymmetric factor of 0.10 at 10 V bias. This work demonstrates an intriguing achiral RP to chiral ACI motif reconstruction in 2D halide hybrid perovskites, opening a door for expanding the family of 2D CHPs.

Abstract
Natural solar-powered steam generation provides a promising strategy to deal with deteriorating water resources. However, the practical applications of this strategy are limited by the tedious manufacturing of structures at micro-nano levels to concentrate heat and transport water to heat-localized regions. Herein, this work reports the fabrication of hierarchically porous aerohydrogel with enhanced light absorption and thermal localization at the air-solid interface. This aerohydrogel steam generator is fabricated by a simple yet controllable micropore generation approach to assemble air and hydrogel into hierarchically porous gas-solid hybrids. The tunable micropore size in a wide range from 99±49µm to 316±58μm not only enables contrasting sunlight absorptance (0.2 - 2.5µm) by reducing the reflection of solar light but also harnesses water transportation to the heating region via a capillary force-driven liquid flow. Therefore, a solar-vapor conversion efficiency of 91.3% under one sun irradiation was achieved using this aerohydrogel evaporator, reaching a ready evaporation rate of 2.76kg m-2 h-1 and 3.71kg m-2 h-1 under one and two sun irradiations, respectively. Our work provides a versatile and scalable approach to engineering porous hydrogels for highly efficient steam generation and opens an avenue for other potential practical applications based on this aerohydrogel.

Abstract
Heterotrophic nitrification-aerobic denitrification (HN-AD) process was achieved in a moving bed biofilm reactor after 180-days acclimation using PCL as carbon source for low C/N wastewater treatment. A novel HN-AD strain, JQ-H3, with ability of PCL degradation was augmented to improve nitrogen removal. TN removal efficiencies of 82.31%, 90.05%, and 93.16% were achieved in the augmented reactor (R2), at different HRTs of 24 h, 20 h, and 16 h, while in the control reactor (R1), the TN removal efficiencies were 59.24%, 74.61%, and 76.68%. The effluent COD in R2 was 10.17 mg/L, much lower than that of 42.45 mg/L in R1. Microbial community analysis revealed that JQ-H3 has successfully proliferated with a relative abundance of 4.79%. Relative abundances of functional enzymes of nitrogen cycling remarkably increased due to bioaugmentation based on the analysis of PICRUSt2. This study provides a new approach for enhancing nitrogen removal in low C/N sewage treatment via the HN-AD process.
