Abstract
Silicon is considered a most promising anode material for overcoming the theoretical capacity limit of carbonaceous anodes. The use of nanomethods has led to significant progress being made with Si anodes to address the severe volume change during (de)lithiation. However, less progress has been made in the practical application of Si anodes in commercial lithium-ion batteries (LIBs). The drastic increase in the energy demands of diverse industries has led to the co-utilization of Si and graphite resurfacing as a commercially viable method for realizing high energy. Herein, we highlight the necessity for the co-utilization of graphite and Si for commercialization and discuss the development of graphite/Si anodes. Representative Si anodes used in graphite-blended electrodes are covered and a variety of strategies for building graphite/Si composites are organized according to their synthetic methods. The criteria for the co-utilization of graphite and Si are systematically presented. Finally, we provide suggestions for the commercialization of graphite/Si combinations.

Abstract
Abstract
Introduction
The OPsumit® Historical USers cohort (OrPHeUS) is a multicentre, US, retrospective medical chart review conducted to supplement the OPsumit® USers (OPUS) Registry to fulfil the FDA request to characterise the safety of macitentan in clinical practice.
Purpose
To describe patient characteristics, treatment patterns, hepatic safety and survival in patients with pulmonary hypertension (PH) newly treated with macitentan.
Methods
OrPHeUS (NCT03197688) aimed to include 2200 new users of macitentan, between October 2013 and March 2017, who were not enrolled in OPUS. Here we present patients with follow-up data, including characteristics and treatment patterns at macitentan initiation, hepatic adverse events (HAEs) identified using preferred terms in chart entries and pharmacovigilance reporting, hospitalisations and survival.
Results
OrPHeUS included 2982 patients newly treated with macitentan and with follow-up data; the reason for macitentan prescription was pulmonary arterial hypertension (PAH) in 2362 (79.3%) patients, other PH aetiologies in 612 (20.6%) patients and 8 patients with other/unknown reasons. At macitentan initiation, the median (Q1, Q3) age of the patients was 62 (51, 72) years and 73.9% were female. WHO functional class (FC) was documented in 654 (21.9%) patients, 35.6% of patients were in FC I/II and 64.4% in FC III/IV; median (Q1, Q3) 6-minute walk distance, documented in 411 (13.8%) patients, was 293 (200, 383) metres. At macitentan initiation, 41.5% (n=1239) of patients were not receiving PAH therapy, 46.3% (n=1382) were already receiving one PAH therapy and 11.9% (n=356) were already receiving two PAH therapies. The median (Q1, Q3) exposure to macitentan was 14.9 (5.6, 27.1) months; 57% and 43% of patients had exposures of >12 and >18 months. During the exposure period, 933 (31.3%) patients discontinued treatment, including 474 (15.9%) patients who discontinued due to an adverse event (AE), 6 (0.2%) due to a HAE, 449 (15.1%) for reasons other than an AE/HAE, and 4 (0.1%) for unknown reasons. There were 275 (9.2%) patients who experienced ≥1 HAE (incidence rate [IR]: 0.07 [95% CI, 0.06, 0.08] per 1 person-year); alanine aminotransferase (ALT) or aspartate aminotransferase (AST) ≥3x upper limit of normal (ULN) were experienced by 113 (3.8%) patients (IR: 0.028 [95% CI, 0.023, 0.033] per 1 person-year); ALT/AST ≥x3 ULN and bilirubin ≥2x ULN was experienced by 33 (1.1%) patients (IR: 0.008 [95% CI, 0.006, 0.011] per 1 person-year). There were 1148 (38.5%) patients who experienced at least one hospitalisation (IR: 0.36 [95% CI, 0.34, 0.39] per 1 person-year). The 12-month Kaplan-Meier survival estimate was 92% (95% CI, 91, 93).
Conclusion
OrPHeUS provides additional real-world evidence in patients newly treated with macitentan, confirming the hepatic safety profile of macitentan.

Abstract
Abstract
Introduction
The OPsumit® USers Registry (OPUS) provides real-world data in patients (pts) with pulmonary hypertension newly started on macitentan. The OPsumit® Historical USers cohort (OrPHeUS) study was conducted to supplement OPUS to fulfil the FDA request to characterise the safety of macitentan in clinical practice. Both studies included pts with CTEPH.
Purpose
To describe the characteristics and safety outcomes of CTEPH pts newly treated with macitentan.
Methods
OPUS is a prospective, US, multicentre, long-term, observational drug registry (NCT02126943) ongoing since Apr 2014. OrPHeUS was a retrospective, US, multicentre medical chart review (NCT03197688); data collected Oct 2013-Mar 2017. This subgroup analysis describes CTEPH patient characteristics at macitentan initiation, hospitalisations, survival and liver function tests (LFTs) in the combined OPUS/OrPHeUS data set. LFTs are also provided for the OPUS/OrPHeUS pulmonary arterial hypertension (PAH) population.
Results
As of Oct 2018, OPUS/OrPHeUS included 144 CTEPH pts with follow-up data. At macitentan initiation, median (Q1, Q3) age was 66 (56, 73) years; of the 53 pts with a WHO functional class (FC) assessment, 35.8%, 49.1% and 15.1% were in FC II, III and IV, respectively. Median (Q1, Q3) time from CTEPH diagnosis was 18.6 (7.4, 56.4) months (n=141). At macitentan initiation, 32.6% of pts had no PAH therapy, 63.9% were receiving one and 3.5% were receiving two PAH therapies. Median (Q1, Q3) exposure to macitentan was 15.9 (4.3, 30.4) months. There were 43 (29.9%) CTEPH pts who discontinued treatment; 23 due to an adverse event (AE), 0 due to a hepatic AE (HAE) and 20 not due to an AE/HAE. There were 58 (40.3%) CTEPH pts who experienced ≥1 hospitalisation and 9 (6.3%) pts died. LFTs are presented in the table.
LFTs CTEPH follow-up pts PAH follow-up pts (N=144) (N=4072) ALT or AST ≥3x ULN Pts with ≥1 event, n (%) 1 (0.7) 132 (3.2) Incidence rate per 1 person-year (95% CI) 0.005 (0.001, 0.035) 0.024 (0.020, 0.029) ALT or AST ≥3x ULN and total bilirubin ≥2x ULN Pts with ≥1 event, n (%) 1 (0.7) 27 (0.7) Incidence rate per 1 person-year (95% CI) 0.005 (0.001, 0.035) 0.005 (0.003, 0.007) ALT: alanine aminotransferase; AST: aspartate aminotransferase; CI: confidence interval; ULN: upper limit of normal.
Conclusions
Analysis of OPUS/OrPHeUS data provides further insight into real-world use of macitentan in CTEPH pts. The observed hepatic safety profile in CTEPH pts is in line with that of PAH pts.

Abstract
The use of high-capacity anode materials to overcome the energy density limits imposed by the utilization of low-theoretical-capacity conventional graphite has recently drawn increased attention. Until now, stress management (including strategies relying on size, surface coating, and free volume control) has been achieved by addressing the critical problems originating from significant anode volume expansion upon lithiation. However, commercially viable alternatives to graphite have not yet been found. A new stress-management strategy relying on the use of a lamellar nanosphere Si anode is proposed. Specifically, nanospheres comprising ≈50 nm Si nanoparticles encapsulated by SiOx /Si/SiOx /C layers with thicknesses of <20 nm per layer are synthesized via one-pot chemical vapor deposition in various atmospheres. SiOx is found to act as a stress management interlayer when it is located between Si and mitigates stress intensification on the surface layer, allowing nanospheres to maintain their morphological integrity and promoting the formation of a stable solid electrolyte interphase layer during cycling. When tested using an industrial protocol, a full cell comprising a nanosphere/graphite blended anode and a lithium cobalt oxide cathode achieve an average energy density of 2440.2 Wh L-1 (1.72 times higher than that of conventional graphite) with a capacity retention ratio of 80% after 101 cycles.

Abstract
AIM To investigate the diagnostic performance and usefulness of texture analysis in differentiating angiomyolipoma (AML) without visible fat from clear cell renal cell carcinoma (ccRCC) on four-phase contrast-enhanced computed tomography (CECT). MATERIALS AND METHODS Seventeen patients with AML without visible fat and 50 patients with ccRCC of size ≤4.5 cm who had also undergone preoperative four-phase CECT were included in this study. The histogram, grey-level co-occurrence matrix (GLCM), and grey-level run length matrix (GLRLM) were evaluated. Sequential feature selection (SFS) and support vector machine (SVM) classifier with leave-one-out cross validation were used. RESULTS Using the SFS and SVM classifiers, five texture features were selected; mean (unenhanced), standard deviation (unenhanced and excretory), cluster prominence (nephrographic), and long-run high grey-level emphasis (corticomedullary). Diagnostic performance of the five selected texture features for all CT phases was as follows: 82% sensitivity, 76% specificity, 85% accuracy, and 85 area under the receiver operating characteristic curve (AUC). In the subgroup analysis, the AUCs of each phase were significantly >0.5 (p<0.05). In the pairwise comparison of AUCs between four phases, there were no significant differences between the four phases except the unenhanced and corticomedullary phases (p=0.015), i.e., the unenhanced phase showed slightly higher AUC than the corticomedullary phase. CONCLUSIONS Texture analysis of small renal masses (≤4.5 cm) on four-phase CECT can accurately differentiate AML without visible fat from ccRCC and showed good diagnostic performance for both the unenhanced and enhanced phases.
