Abstract
Objective: To compare the efficacy and safety of active transfer of plaque (ATP) versus provisional stenting (PS) with drug-eluting stents (DES) for the treatment of coronary bifurcation lesions. Methods: A total of 1 136 patients with bifurcation lesions hospitalized in 6 selected hospitals between January 2010 and January 2014 were included in this prospective observational trial, patients were divided into either ATP (n=560) or PS group (n=576) accordingly. The primary endpoint was target lesion revascularization within 1 year, and the second endpoints were all-cause death, cardiogenic death, myocardial infarction, stent thrombosis, stroke, recurrent angina within 1 year. Results: There were no significant differences in age, sex, hypertension, diabetes, hyperlipidemia and smoking history between the two groups (P>0.05). The incidence of TIMI blood flow <3 grade in the side branch (1.6%(9/560) vs. 7.5% (43/576), P<0.01), acute occlusion of the side branch (1.3%(7/560) vs. 7.1%(41/576), P<0.01) and implanted stents of side branch (1.8%(10/560) vs. 7.8% (45/576), P<0.01) were significantly lower in the ATP group than those in the PS group. During the one year follow up, the rate of target lesion revascularization was similar between ATP group and PS group (4.6%(26/560) vs. 4.0%(23/576), P=0.66). Conclusions: The effectiveness and safetyof ATP techniquein the patients with coronary bifurcation lesions is comparable to the PS technique. However, ATP technique is superior to PS technique on effectively reducing the incidence of implanted stents in the side branch.

Beam Energy and Centrality Dependence of Direct-Photon Emission from Ultrarelativistic Heavy-Ion Collisions. PHYSICAL REVIEW LETTERS 2019; 123:022301.

Abstract
The PHENIX collaboration presents first measurements of low-momentum (0.4<p_{T}<3 GeV/c) direct-photon yields from Au+Au collisions at sqrt[s_{NN}]=39 and 62.4 GeV. For both beam energies the direct-photon yields are substantially enhanced with respect to expectations from prompt processes, similar to the yields observed in Au+Au collisions at sqrt[s_{NN}]=200. Analyzing the photon yield as a function of the experimental observable dN_{ch}/dη reveals that the low-momentum (>1 GeV/c) direct-photon yield dN_{γ}^{dir}/dη is a smooth function of dN_{ch}/dη and can be well described as proportional to (dN_{ch}/dη)^{α} with α≈1.25. This scaling behavior holds for a wide range of beam energies at the Relativistic Heavy Ion Collider and the Large Hadron Collider, for centrality selected samples, as well as for different A+A collision systems. At a given beam energy, the scaling also holds for high p_{T} (>5 GeV/c), but when results from different collision energies are compared, an additional sqrt[s_{NN}]-dependent multiplicative factor is needed to describe the integrated-direct-photon yield.

[PMID: 31250243 PMCID: PMC6722153 DOI: 10.1007/s00464-019-06907-7] [Citation(s) in RCA: 152] [Impact Index Per Article: 30.4] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 02/25/2019] [Accepted: 06/07/2019] [Indexed: 02/08/2023]
Abstract
Abstract In 2014, the International Endohernia Society (IEHS) published the first international “Guidelines for laparoscopic treatment of ventral and incisional abdominal wall hernias.” Guidelines reflect the currently best available evidence in diagnostics and therapy and give recommendations to help surgeons to standardize their techniques and to improve their results. However, science is a dynamic field which is continuously developing. Therefore, guidelines require regular updates to keep pace with the evolving literature. Methods For the development of the original guidelines, all relevant literature published up to year 2012 was analyzed using the ranking of the Oxford Centre for Evidence-Based Medicine. For the present update, all of the previous authors were asked to evaluate the literature published during the recent years from 2012 to 2017 and revise their statements and recommendations given in the initial guidelines accordingly. In two Consensus Conferences (October 2017 Beijing, March 2018 Cologne), the updates were presented, discussed, and confirmed. To avoid redundancy, only new statements or recommendations are included in this paper. Therefore, for full understanding both of the guidelines, the original and the current, must be read. In addition, the new developments in repair of abdominal wall hernias like surgical techniques within the abdominal wall, release operations (transversus muscle release, component separation), Botox application, and robot-assisted repair methods were included. Results Due to an increase of the number of patients and further development of surgical techniques, repair of primary and secondary abdominal wall hernias attracts increasing interests of many surgeons. Whereas up to three decades ago hernia-related publications did not exceed 20 per year, currently this number is about 10-fold higher. Recent years are characterized by the advent of new techniques—minimal invasive techniques using robotics and laparoscopy, totally extraperitoneal repairs, novel myofascial release techniques for optimal closure of large defects, and Botox for relaxing the abdominal wall. Furthermore, a concomitant rectus diastasis was recognized as a significant risk factor for recurrence. Despite insufficient evidence with respect to these new techniques, it seemed to us necessary to include them in the update to stimulate surgeons to do research in these fields. Conclusion Guidelines are recommendations based on best available evidence intended to help the surgeon to improve the quality of his daily work. However, science is a continuously evolving process, and as such guidelines should be updated about every 3 years. For a comprehensive reference, however, it is suggested to read both the initial guidelines published in 2014 together with the update. Moreover, the presented update includes also techniques which were not known 3 years before.

Abstract
Objective: To investigate the current status of prevention and control of occupational hazards in a city in 2017, to understand the capability to prevent and control occupational hazards and the level of occupational health supervision and management, and to propose measures to urge employers to assume the main responsibility for the prevention and control of occupational diseases. Methods: An analysis of the main factors influencing the prevention and control of occupational hazards in the city was performed to screen out six semi-quantitative assessment indicators (including the training of the main responsible persons and occupational health management personnel in companies) and four qualitative assessment indicators (including the coverage of supervision and inspection of occupational hazards performed by the district safety supervision department) , which could be used to measure the prevention and control effects of regional occupational hazards. Each indicator was scored. The typical investigation method was used to do data review and on-site inspection of 170 companies, 17 district-level occupational health supervision departments, and 16 sub-district (township) occupational health supervision departments in the city from October to December, 2017. The prevention and control of occupational diseases in each district was scored, and the completion rate and completion situation of each indicator in the city were analyzed. Results: The mean score of prevention and control of occupational hazards in the city was 84.9. The scores of two districts were relatively high, being 88.9 and 88.7, respectively; the scores of 9 (52.9%) districts were higher than 85. The pass rate of training for the main responsible persons and occupational health management personnel in companies in the city was 95.9%, the pass rate of occupational health training for workers was 84.7%, the pass rate of occupational health examination for workers was 96.5%, the pass rate for the inspection of occupational hazardous factors in workplaces was 95.3%, the pass rate for notifying occupational hazards in workplaces is 95.9%, and the pass rate for applying the warning signs of occupational hazards in workplaces was 76.5%. Conclusion: The awareness of the importance of prevention and control of occupational hazards in all districts of the city has been increased, but the effectiveness of occupational health training for workers needs to be strengthened. The supply and demand of occupational health technical services are still not matched, and the ways and methods of occupational health supervision and inspection need to be improved.

Abstract
Objective: To compare the difference of preoperative planning parameters between 3D-printing non-coplanar template (3D-PNCT) and 3D-printing coplanar template (3D-PCT) in the treatment of pelvic wall recurrent gynecological malignant tumor with radioactive seeds implantation, and to guide the clinical application. Methods: From January 2016 to March 2018, 33 patients with pelvic wall recurrent gynecological malignant tumor were treated with radioactive seeds implantation assisted by 3D-printing template and in Peking University Third Hospital. All patients underwent 3D-PNCT and 3D-PCT preoperative planning. The D(90) of target remained similar for the same patient. The parameters were compared with Wilcoxon test or Kruskal-Wallis test. Results: D(90) was similar between the two groups (P>0.05). The number of inserting needles through intestine and bone in 3D-PNCT group was less than that in 3D-PCT group (0 (0-13), 0 (0-25), Z=-2.941, P<0.05;0 (0-3), 0 (0-25), Z=-2.232, P<0.05). Conclusion: For patients with gynecological malignancies with pelvic recurrence, both of the two peroperative plans could achieve prescription dose, but 3D-PNCT is more safer.

Abstract
Objective: To investigate the efficacy of CT-guidance interstitial Iodine-125 seed brachytherapy as a salvage therapy for recurrent head and neck carcinoma. Methods: A total of 122 patients who had been treated for recurrent head and neck carcinoma with CT-guided Iodine-125 seed permanent implantation were conducted a retrospective analysis at Peking University Third Hospital from February 2003 to December 2015. The study included 78 male and 44 female patients. Of the 122 patients, 76 had undergone radical surgery, 106 had received EBRT. Among the patients who underwent EBRT, the total dose delivered to PTV ranged from 30 to 140 Gy (median, 68.4 Gy). The actuarial median number of the implanted Iodine-125 seeds was 38 (range, 5-158). The specific activity of Iodine-125 seeds ranged from 14.8 to 28.9 MBq/seed (median, 22.2 MBq). The evaluation of post plan showed the actuarial D90 ranged from 46 to 282 Gy (median, 121 Gy). The overall local control and survival times were determined by using the Kaplan-Meier method from SPSS 13.0.Univariate analysis was performed on the local control rate and overall survival rate. Results: Tumor responses rate was 75.4%. The median local control time was 10.0 months (95% CI 9.8-24.2 months), and the 1-, 2-, 3-, and 5-year local control were 41.9%, 21.2%, 3.7%, and 3.7%, respectively. Univariate analysis showed that the local control in D90≥120 Gy group had an increasing tendency, but no statistical difference were found. The effect of local control in the squamous cell carcinoma group was slightly worse than that in the non-squamous cell carcinoma group (P=0.032). Multi-factor analysis showed that the effect of local control in the squamous cell carcinoma group was slightly poor (P=0.03). The median survival time was 14 months (95% CI 14.4-35.8 months), and the 1-, 2-, 3- and 5-year survival rate were 51.5%, 34.2%, 19.4%, and 19.4%, respectively. The three factors, such as the tumor responses, KPS status before the seed implantation, and the D90 after the seed implantation, had a tendency to improve the total survival, but there was still no statistical differences. Multivariate analysis showed no clear influence factors. Conclusions: Interstitial permanent Iodine-125 seed implantation is an effective salvage re-irradiation modality for recurrent head and neck carcinoma after previous surgery and/or EBRT. CT image-guided method could yield the reliable seeds configuration and accurate dose distribution.

Abstract
Asymmetric nuclear collisions of p+Al, p+Au, d+Au, and ^{3}He+Au at sqrt[s_{NN}]=200 GeV provide an excellent laboratory for understanding particle production, as well as exploring interactions among these particles after their initial creation in the collision. We present measurements of charged hadron production dN_{ch}/dη in all such collision systems over a broad pseudorapidity range and as a function of collision multiplicity. A simple wounded quark model is remarkably successful at describing the full data set. We also measure the elliptic flow v_{2} over a similarly broad pseudorapidity range. These measurements provide key constraints on models of particle emission and their translation into flow.

Abstract
Increasing concerns over the possible risks of nanotechnology necessitates breakthroughs in structure-activity relationship (SAR) analyses of engineered nanomaterials (ENMs) at nano-bio interfaces. However, current nano-SARs are often based on univariate assessments and fail to provide tiered views on ENM-induced bio-effects. Here we report a multi-hierarchical nano-SAR assessment for a representative ENM, Fe2O3, by metabolomics and proteomics analyses. The established nano-SAR profile allows the visualizing of the contributions of seven basic properties of Fe2O3 to its diverse bio-effects. For instance, although surface reactivity is responsible for Fe2O3-induced cell migration, the inflammatory effects of Fe2O3 are determined by aspect ratio (nanorods) or surface reactivity (nanoplates). These nano-SARs are examined in THP-1 cells and animal lungs, which allow us to decipher the detailed mechanisms including NLRP3 inflammasome pathway and monocyte chemoattractant protein-1-dependent signaling. This study provides more insights for nano-SARs, and may facilitate the tailored design of ENMs to render them desired bio-effects.

Abstract
Objective: To compare and analyze the clinical characteristics and laboratory parameters of central nervous system (CNS) infection caused by different Gram-stained bacteria after craniocerebral surgery, and to provide a preliminary basis for early anti-infection treatment to reduce the use of extended-spectrum antibiotics and the generation of resistant strains. Methods: A single center retrospective study was conducted to investigate the clinical data of patients with intracranial infection after craniocerebral surgery from January 2012 to December 2016 in PLA general hospital. The general conditions, clinical features, laboratory parameters, antibiotic treatments and prognosis were analyzed. Results: A toal of 813 cases of CNS infection after craniocerebral surgery were found during the 5-year period, with an incidence rate of 5.43% (813/14 986). The positive rate of cerebrospinal fluid (CSF)culture was 9.72% (79/813). According to the criteria, 71 cases were included in the study. Among all the cases, 64.8% (46/71) of which were Gram-positive bacteria (G(+) ) and 35.2% (25/71) were identified as Gram-negative bacteria (G(-)). The duration between surgery and meningitis events, as well as the period of antibiotic treatment for G(+) bacteria group were 5.0 (4.0, 6.0) days and (18.3±6.8) days, which were shorter than those of the G(-) bacteria group 9.0(7.0, 11.0) days and (29.2±9.9) days (Z=-6.184, t=-5.245, both P<0.01) , and the differences were statistically significant. The serum procalcitonin concentration in the G(+) group was lower than that in G(-) group [1.02(0.83, 1.27)μg/L vs 2.68(1.97, 5.07)μg/L, Z=-5.719, P<0.01]. The cerebrospinal fluid glucose content was higher than that of G(-) bacteria group[(2.13±1.30) mmol/L vs (1.09±0.95) mmol/L, t=3.512, P<0.01]. The protein level was lower than that of G(-) bacteria group [(1 615.93±848.83) mg/L vs (2 480.60±1 105.28) mg/L, t=-3.679, P<0.01]. Serum C-reactive protein concentrations in the two groups did not show any statistical significance [(96.2±46.1) mg/L vs (117.8±46.3) mg/L, t=-1.884, P>0.05]. In addition, the mortality rate of the G(-) bacteria group was 16.0% (4/25), and 0 in G(+) bacteria group. Conclusion: The time of onset of intracranial infection, serum PCT concentration, and cerebrospinal fluid glucose and protein content caused by Gram-positive bacteria and Gram-negative bacteria are found to be significantly different, and these findings could serve as a preliminary guide for the selection of antibiotics in early experiential anti-infective treatments without the etiology report.

Abstract
PURPOSE This study evaluated the manufacturing method and anti-adhesion properties of a new composite mesh in the rat model, which was made from sirolimus (SRL) grafts on a poly(L-lactic acid) (PLLA)-modified polypropylene (PP) hernia mesh. METHODS PLLA was first grafted onto argon-plasma-treated native PP mesh through catalysis of stannous chloride. SRL was grafted onto the surface of PP-PLLA meshes using catalysis of 1-(3-dimethylaminopropyl)-3-ethylcarbodiimide hydrochloride (EDC) and 4-dimethylaminopyridine (DMAP) in a CH2Cl2 solvent. Sprague-Dawley female rats received either SRL-coated meshes, PP-PLLA meshes, or native PP meshes to repair abdominal wall defects. At different intervals, rats were euthanized by a lethal dose of chloral hydrate and adhesion area and tenacity were evaluated. Sections of the mesh with adjacent tissues were assessed histologically. RESULTS Attenuated total reflection Fourier transformed infrared (ATR-FTIR) spectroscopy indicated the existence of a C=O group absorption peak (1724.1 cm-1), and scanning electron microscope morphological analysis indicated that the surface of the PP mesh was covered with SRL. Compared to the native PP meshes and PP-PLLA meshes, SRL-coated meshes demonstrated the greatest ability to decrease the formation of adhesions (P < 0.05) and inflammation. CONCLUSIONS The SRL-coated composite mesh showed minimal formation of intra-abdominal adhesions in a rat model of abdominal wall defect repair.

Abstract
Occult hepatitis B infection (OBI) is characterized by serum hepatitis B surface antigen (HBsAg) negative and hepatitis B virus (HBV) DNA positive (HBsAg-/HBV DNA+). Occult hepatitis B infection in community-based populations has been scarcely investigated, and OBI outcomes remain unclear, especially in Wuwei, a region located in Northwest China. This region is one of the areas in China that has the highest prevalence of chronic HBV infection. A prospective study was performed in the general population of 2 towns of Wuwei from June 2011 to May 2014. A questionnaire was used to collect demographic and medical data, and serum samples were collected from the participants and stored until analysis. DNA was detected using quantitative PCR (qPCR) or nested PCR, the HBV DNA from HBV DNA-positive or possible positive (below the detection limit) subjects was extracted and amplified by nested PCR, and the PCR products were sequenced. Sequence analysis was performed using the Mega 6.0 program and CLC sequence viewer software. Hepatitis B virus DNA was detected in 90 of 3,080 HBsAg-negative subjects, and the prevalence of OBI in the study population was 2.92% (90/3,080, 95% CI: 2.33%-3.51%). Hepatitis B virus genomes in 51 of 80 objects (63.75%) contained mutations in the "a" determinant of HBsAg. After 2 years follow-up, 42 of 90 HBV DNA of OBI subjects remained positive, and the natural clearance rate of OBI subjects was 53.3%. Occult hepatitis B infection prevalence in this cohort was much lower than chronic HBV infection in the same region. HBV DNA was cleared in most OBI subjects during the 2 year period. Our data suggest that some OBI may represent a late stage of resolving the HBV infection process.

Abstract
While two-dimensional graphene oxide (GO) is used increasingly in biomedical applications, there is uncertainty on how specific physicochemical properties relate to biocompatibility in mammalian systems. Although properties such as lateral size and the colloidal properties of the nanosheets are important, the specific material properties that we address here is the oxidation state and reactive surface groups on the planar surface. In this study, we used a GO library, comprising pristine, reduced (rGO), and hydrated GO (hGO), in which quantitative assessment of the hydroxyl, carboxyl, epoxy, and carbon radical contents was used to study the impact on epithelial cells and macrophages, as well as in the murine lung. Strikingly, we observed that hGO, which exhibits the highest carbon radical density, was responsible for the generation of cell death in THP-1 and BEAS-2B cells as a consequence of lipid peroxidation of the surface membrane, membrane lysis, and cell death. In contrast, pristine GO had lesser effects, while rGO showed extensive cellular uptake with minimal effects on viability. In order to see how these in vitro effects relate to adverse outcomes in the lung, mice were exposed to GOs by oropharyngeal aspiration. Animal sacrifice after 40 h demonstrated that hGO was more prone than other materials to generate acute lung inflammation, accompanied by the highest lipid peroxidation in alveolar macrophages, cytokine production (LIX, MCP-1), and LDH release in bronchoalveolar lavage fluid. Pristine GO showed less toxicity, whereas rGO had minimal effects. We demonstrate that the surface oxidation state and carbon radical content play major roles in the induction of toxicity by GO in mammalian cells and the lung.

Abstract
Recently, multiparticle-correlation measurements of relativistic p/d/^{3}He+Au, p+Pb, and even p+p collisions show surprising collective signatures. Here, we present beam-energy-scan measurements of two-, four-, and six-particle angular correlations in d+Au collisions at sqrt[s_{NN}]=200, 62.4, 39, and 19.6 GeV. We also present measurements of two- and four-particle angular correlations in p+Au collisions at sqrt[s_{NN}]=200 GeV. We find the four-particle cumulant to be real valued for d+Au collisions at all four energies. We also find that the four-particle cumulant in p+Au has the opposite sign as that in d+Au. Further, we find that the six-particle cumulant agrees with the four-particle cumulant in d+Au collisions at 200 GeV, indicating that nonflow effects are subdominant. These observations provide strong evidence that the correlations originate from the initial geometric configuration, which is then translated into the momentum distribution for all particles, commonly referred to as collectivity.

Abstract
During 2015, the Relativistic Heavy Ion Collider (RHIC) provided collisions of transversely polarized protons with Au and Al nuclei for the first time, enabling the exploration of transverse-single-spin asymmetries with heavy nuclei. Large single-spin asymmetries in very forward neutron production have been previously observed in transversely polarized p+p collisions at RHIC, and the existing theoretical framework that was successful in describing the single-spin asymmetry in p+p collisions predicts only a moderate atomic-mass-number (A) dependence. In contrast, the asymmetries observed at RHIC in p+A collisions showed a surprisingly strong A dependence in inclusive forward neutron production. The observed asymmetry in p+Al collisions is much smaller, while the asymmetry in p+Au collisions is a factor of 3 larger in absolute value and of opposite sign. The interplay of different neutron production mechanisms is discussed as a possible explanation of the observed A dependence.

Abstract
Although a universal newborn hepatitis B (HB) immunization programme has been implemented in China, hepatitis B virus (HBV) breakthrough infection, including HB surface antigen (HBsAg)-positive infection and occult HBV infection (OBI), still occurs during infancy or childhood. Obtaining the actual prevalence of HBV infection in general children is important for preventing and controlling the spread of HB. Accordingly, we investigated the prevalence of overt infection and OBI in community children and compared the serological and virological characteristics of OBI and HBsAg carrier children to clarify the mechanisms related to OBI. In total, 6 706 community children <12 years of age were included from a population-based HBV seroepidemiological investigation in Northwest China. The HBsAg carrier rate in community children was 1.60% (107/6706), and the anti-HBs positive rate was 57.35% (3846/6706). Additionally, 1192 HBsAg-negative children were examined for OBI using nested PCR. The prevalence of OBI in local children was 1.26% (15/1192), and the predominant OBI genotypes were C and D. The 15 OBI children and 29 HBsAg-positive children from the same population did not have a statistical significant difference in age, gender, alanine aminotransferase (ALT), proportion of anti-HBs or anti-HBc, viral genotypes or mutations. Children with chronic overt infection had higher viral loads than OBI children (P=.004). These results suggested that HBV overt and occult infection of children was more serious in underdeveloped north-west regions. HBV neonatal immunization and catch-up programmes should be strengthened and supplemented. None of specific viral mutations or genotypes related to OBI were found. OBI may be a specific stage of HBV infection.

Abstract
Objective: To compare the post-implant target volumes and dosimetric evaluation with pre-plan, the gross tumor volume(GTV) by CT image fusion-based and the manual delineation of target volume in CT guided radioactive seeds implantation. Methods: A total of 10 patients treated under CT-guidance (125)I seed implantation during March 2016 to April 2016 were analyzed in Peking University Third Hospital.All patients underwent pre-operative CT simulation, pre-operative planning, implantation seeds, CT scanning after seed implantation and dosimetric evaluation of GTV.In every patient, post-implant target volumes were delineated by both two methods, and were divided into two groups. Group 1: image fusion pre-implantation simulation and post-operative CT image, then the contours of GTV were automatically performed by brachytherapy treatment planning system; Group 2: the contouring of the GTV on post-operative CT image were performed manually by three senior radiation oncologists independently. The average of three data was sets. Statistical analyses were performed using SPSS software, version 3.2.0. The paired t-test was used to compare the target volumes and D(90) parameters in two modality. Results: In Group 1, average volume of GTV in post-operation group was 12-167(73±56) cm(3). D(90) was 101-153 (142±19)Gy. In Group 2, they were 14-186(80±58)cm(3) and 96-146(122±16) Gy respectively. In both target volumes and D(90), there was no statistical difference between pre-operation and post-operation in Group 1.The D(90) was slightly lower than that of pre-plan group, but there was no statistical difference (P=0.142); in Group 2, between pre-operation and post-operation group, there was a significant statistical difference in the GTV (P=0.002). The difference of D(90) was similarly (P<0.01). Conclusion: The method of delineation of post-implant GTV through fusion pre-implantation simulation and post-operative CT scan images, the contours of GTV are automatically performed by brachytherapy treatment planning system appears to have improved more accuracy, reproducibility and convenience than manual delineation of target volume by maximum reduce the interference from artificial factor and metal artifacts. Further work and more cases are required in the future.

Abstract
Aluminum-salt-based vaccine adjuvants are prevailingly used in FDA-approved vaccines for the prevention of infectious diseases for over eighty years. Despite their safe applications, the mechanisms regarding how the material characteristics affect the interactions at nano-bio interface and immunogenicity remain unclear. Recently, studies have indicated that the activation of NLRP3 inflammasome plays a critical role in inducing adjuvant effects that are controlled by the inherent shape and hydroxyl contents of aluminum oxyhydroxide (AlOOH) nanoparticles; however, the detailed relationship between surface properties and adjuvant effects for these materials remains unknown. Thus, we engineered AlOOH nanorods (ALNRs) with controlled surface functionalization and charge to assess their effects on the activation of NLRP3 inflammasome in vitro and the potentiation of immunogenicity in vivo. It is demonstrated that NH2-functionalized ALNRs exhibited higher levels of cellular uptake, lysosomal damage, oxidative stress, and NLRP3 inflammasome activation than pristine and SO3H-functionalized ALNRs in cells. This structure-activity relationship also correlates with the adjuvant activity of the material using ovalbumin (OVA) in a mouse vaccination model. This study demonstrates that surface functionalization of ALNRs is critical for rational design of aluminum-based adjuvants to boost antigen-specific immune responses for more effective and long-lasting vaccination.

Abstract
Bean (Phaseolus vulgaris) plants were grown for 45 days in soil amended with either uncoated (Z-COTE®) and coated (Z-COTE HP1®) ZnO nanomaterials (NMs), bulk ZnO and ZnCl2, at 0-500mg/kg. At harvest, growth parameters, chlorophyll, and essential elements were determined. None of the treatments affected germination and pod production, and only ZnCl2 at 250 and 500mg/kg reduced relative chlorophyll content by 34% and 46%, respectively. While Z-COTE® did not produce phenotypic changes, Z-COTE HP1®, at all concentrations, increased root length (∼44%) and leaf length (∼13%) compared with control. Bulk ZnO reduced root length (53%) at 62.5mg/kg and ZnCl2 reduced leaf length (16%) at 125mg/kg. Z-COTE®, at 125mg/kg, increased Zn by 203%, 139%, and 76% in nodules, stems, and leaves, respectively; while at the same concentration, Z-COTE HP1® increased Zn by 89%, 97%, and 103% in roots, stems, and leaves, respectively. At 125mg/kg, Z-COTE HP1® increased root S (65%) and Mg (65%), while Z-COTE® increased stem B (122%) and Mn (73%). Bulk ZnO and ZnCl2 imposed more toxicity to kidney bean than the NMs, since they reduced root and leaf elongation, respectively, and the concentration of several essential elements in tissues.

Abstract
Abstract
To understand the flow behavior of a melted polymer during injection molding with ultrasonic vibration, a new visualization device was developed and a method was proposed to analyze the filling velocity field during the injection molding process. Using the device and method, both the influence of ultrasonic vibration on the velocity of the filling front and the velocity distribution of a polypropylene melt within a cavity are discussed. The results showed that the filling front velocity of the melt was improved by ultrasonic vibration (the filling front velocity was improved by up to 27% when 200 W of ultrasonic power was applied). In addition, it was shown that the velocity gradient of the melt within the cavity decreased, and that the velocity distribution became more uniform during ultrasonic vibration.
