Abstract
Global emission reductions still must address winter fine particulate matter (PM2.5) pollution in urban basins with enclosed terrains and frequent cold air pool (CAP) events when the temperatures within the basin are colder than above it. The effects of urban basin aerosol-boundary layer interactions on PM2.5 pollution during CAP events remain unclear. Intensive boundary layer observations in January 2021 and numerical models were used to investigate this issue in the semi-arid urban Lanzhou Basin of China. The results showed that CAPs formed because of the synoptic weather system that exacerbated the warming over the basin. The CAPs in this experiment were characterized by stronger temperature inversion (TI) layers in the vertical direction and lower relative humidity, lower wind speed, and weaker turbulence at the bottom of the basin compared to other conditions. The strong TI layers below the top of the basin inhibited the vertical dispersion of pollutants in the basin and concentrated the PM2.5 within a height of 0.3 km from the bottom of the basin. During CAP events, the proportion of elemental carbon in PM2.5 increased, whereas that of secondary inorganic species decreased. Aerosol absorption increased faster than scattering during CAP events. Therefore, the mean single scattering albedo decreased from 0.85 during non-CAP periods to 0.81 during CAP events. Radiosonde-sounding observations and numerical simulations indicated that aerosols accumulating in the lower basin heated the atmosphere during the daytime and facilitated boundary layer development via the "stove effect" (absorption aerosol heats lower atmosphere to promote boundary layer development). No significant "dome effect" (absorption aerosol heats the upper boundary layer to suppress boundary layer development) occurred during the two CAP events. These findings provide a theoretical basis for scientifically-guided PM2.5 pollution control in winter in isolated urban basins.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE To compare the efficacy and safety of preoperative localization of small pulmonary nodules (SPNs) with 4-hook anchor device and hook-wire before video-assisted thoracoscopic surgery. METHODS Patients with SPNs scheduled for computed tomography-guided nodule localization before video-assisted thoracoscopic surgery between May 2021 and June 2021 at our center were randomized to either 4-hook anchor group or hook-wire group. The primary end point was intraoperative localization success. RESULTS After randomization, 28 patients with 34 SPNs were assigned to the 4-hook anchor group and 28 patients with 34 SPNs to the hook-wire group. The operative localization success rate was significantly greater in the 4-hook anchor group than in the hook-wire group (94.1% [32/34] vs 64.7% [22/34]; P = .007). All lesions in the 2 groups were successfully resected under thoracoscopy, but 4 patients in the hook-wire group who required transition from wedge resection to segmentectomy or lobectomy because of unsuccessful localization. Total localization-related complication rate was significantly lower in the 4-hook anchor group than in the hook-wire group (10.3% [3/28] vs 50.0% [14/28]; P = .004). The rate of chest pain requiring analgesia after the localization procedure was significantly lower in the 4-hook anchor group than in the hook-wire group (0 vs 5/28, 17.9%; P = .026). There were no significant differences in localization technical success rate, operative blood loss, hospital stay length and hospital cost between the 2 groups (all P > .05). CONCLUSIONS The use of the 4-hook anchor device for SPN localization offers advantages over the traditional hook-wire technique.

Abstract
Chronic hypoxia and ischemia make diabetic wounds non-healing. Cellular functions of diabetic chronic wounds are inhibited under a pathological environment. Therefore, this work develops a composite hydrogel system to promote diabetic wound healing. The composite hydrogel system consists of ε-poly-lysine (EPL), calcium peroxide (CP), and borosilicate glass (BG). The hydrogel supplies continuous dissolved oxygen molecules to the wound that can penetrate the skin tissue to restore normal cellular function and promote vascular regeneration. Biofunctional ions released from BGs can recruit more macrophages through neovascularization and modulate macrophage phenotypic transformation. Combining oxygen-mediated vascular regeneration and ion-mediated inflammatory regulation significantly accelerated diabetic wound healing. These findings indicate that this composite hydrogel system holds promise as a novel tissue engineering material.

Abstract
We evaluated the effects of supplementing bacterial direct-fed microbial (DFM) on performance, apparent total-tract digestibility, rumen fermentation, and immune parameters of lactating dairy cows. One hundred fourteen multiparous Holstein cows (41 ± 7 DIM) were used in a randomized complete block design with an experiment comprising 14 d of a covariate (pre-experimental sample and data collection) and 91 d of an experimental period. Cows were blocked based on energy-corrected milk (ECM) yield during the covariate period and the following treatments were randomly assigned within each block: (1) control (CON), corn silage-based total mixed ration without DFM; (2) PRO-A, basal diet top-dressed with a mixture of Lactobacillus animalis and Propionibacterium freudenreichii at 3 × 109 cfu/d; and 3) PRO-B, basal diet top-dressed with a mixture of L. animalis, P. freudenreichii, Bacillus subtilis, and Bacillus licheniformis at 11.8 × 109 cfu/d. Milk yield, dry matter intake (DMI), and body weight were measured daily, while milk samples for component analysis were taken on 2 consecutive days of each week of data collection. Feces, urine, rumen, and blood samples were taken during the covariate period, wk 4, 7, 10, and 13 for estimation of digestibility, N-partitioning, rumen fermentation, plasma nutrient status and immune parameters. Treatments had no effect on DMI and milk yield. Fat-corrected milk (3.5% FCM) and milk fat yield were improved with PRO-B, while milk fat percent and feed efficiency (ECM/DMI) tended to increase with PRO-B compared with PRO-A and CON. Crude fat digestibility was greater with PRO-B compared with CON. Feeding CON and PRO-A resulted in higher total volatile fatty acid concentration relative to PRO-B. Percentage of neutrophils tended to be reduced with PRO-A compared with CON and PRO-B. The mean fluorescence intensity (MFI) of anti-CD44 antibody on granulocytes tended to be higher in PRO-B compared with CON. The MFI of anti-CD62L antibody on CD8+ T cells was lower in PRO-A than PRO-B, with PRO-A also showing a tendency to be lower than CON. This study indicates the potential of DFM to improve fat digestibility with consequential improvement in fat corrected milk yield, feed efficiency and milk fat yield by lactating dairy cows. The study findings also indicate that dietary supplementation with DFM may augment immune parameters or activation of immune cells, including granulocytes and T cells; however, the overall effects on immune parameters are inconclusive.

Abstract
Mineral dust can accelerate secondary aerosol formation under humid conditions. However, it is unclear whether it can promote secondary aerosol formation under dry conditions. To investigate this issue, two years of comprehensive observations was conducted at a semi-arid site, near the dust source regions. Three types of episodes were selected: dust, anthropogenic-dominated, and mixed (mixed with dust and anthropogenic aerosols). Compared to anthropogenic-dominated episodes under humid conditions, rapid nitrate formation was still observed in mixed episodes under dry conditions, suggesting that active metallic oxides in dust, such as titanium dioxide, could promote photochemical reactions of nitrogen dioxide. The detailed evolutionary processes are further illustrated by a typical dust-to-mixed episode. After the arrival of the dust, titanium sharply increased ten-fold and rapid nitrate formation was observed, together with a rapid increase in the two most important photochemical pollutants, ozone and peroxyacetyl nitrate. The increased secondary organic carbon further illustrated that the suspended dust particles accelerated the atmospheric oxidative capacity, thereby enhancing secondary aerosol formation and eventually leading to haze pollution. These results differ from those in humid regions and therefore expand the scientific understanding of the impact of dust aerosols on haze pollution under dry conditions.

Abstract
Sidewall defects play a key role in determining the efficiency of GaN-based micro-light emitting diodes (LEDs) for next generation display applications, but there still lacks direct observation of defects-related recombination at the affected area. In this Letter, we proposed a direct technique to investigate the recombination mechanism and size effect of sidewall defects for GaN blue micro-LEDs. The results show that mesa etching will produce stress release near the sidewall, which can reduce the quantum confinement Stark effect (QCSE) to improve the radiative recombination. Meanwhile, the defect-related non-radiative recombination generated by the sidewall defects plays a leading role under low-power injection. In addition, the effective area of the mesas affected by the sidewall defects can be directly observed according to the fluorescence lifetime imaging microscope (FLIM) characterization. For example, the effective area of the mesa with 80 µm is affected by 23% while the entire area of the mesa with 10 µm is almost all affected. This study provides guidance for the analysis and repair of sidewall defects to improve the quantum efficiency of micro-LEDs display at low current density.

Abstract
The regeneration of alveolar bone is still clinical challenge, particularly accompanied with diabetes, causing metabolic disorder with a protracted low-grade inflammatory phenotype. As a result, the anticipated loading of biomaterials is highly suspicious in spontaneous modulation of cells function, which is mostly disturbed by constant inflammation. In this study, we developed glucose and hydrogen peroxide dual-responsive borosilicate glass (BSG) scaffolds loaded with epigallocatechin gallate (EGCG) to synergistically modulate the abnormal inflammation of diabetic alveolar bone defects. It was found that the release of EGCG by BSG could directly regulate the shift of macrophages from M1 to the M2 phenotype by promoting autophagy and lessening the inhibition of autophagic flux. Moreover, EGCG can also indirectly regulate the polarization phenotype of macrophages by reducing the activation of NF-κb in stem cells and restoring its immunoregulatory capacity. Therefore, the addition of EGCG to BSG scaffold in diabetes allows for a more striking modulation of the macrophage phenotype in a timely manner. The altered macrophage phenotype reduces local inflammation and thus increases the ability to repair diabetic alveolar bone, showing promise for the treatment of alveolar defect in diabetic patients.

Abstract
Activation of coagulation cascades, especially FX and prothrombin, prevents blood loss and reduces mortality from hemorrhagic shock. Inorganic salts are efficient but cannot stop bleeding completely in hemorrhagic events, and rebleeding carries a significant mortality risk. The coagulation mechanism of biominerals has been oversimplified in the past two decades, limiting the creation of novel hemostats. Herein, at the interface, the affinity of proteins, the protease activity, fibrinolysis, hydration shell, and dynamic microenvironment are monitored at the protein level. Proteomic analysis reveals that fibrinogen and antithrombin III's affinity for kaolin's interface causes a weak thrombus and rebleeding during hemostasis. Inspiringly, amorphous bioactive glass (BG) with a transient-dynamic ion microenvironment breaches the hydration layer barrier and selectively and slightly captures procoagulant components of kiniogen-1, plasma kallikrein, FXII, and FXI proteins on its interface, concurrently generating a continuous biocatalytic interface to rapidly activate both intrinsic and extrinsic coagulation pathways. Thus, prothrombin complexes are successfully hydrolyzed to thrombin without platelet membrane involvement, speeding production of high-strength clots. This study investigates how the interface of inorganic salts assists in coagulation cascades from a more comprehensive micro-perspective that may help elucidate the clinical application issues of kaolin-gauze and pave the way to new materials for managing hemorrhage.

Abstract
InGaN-based micro-LEDs can detect and emit optical signals simultaneously, owing to their overlapping emission and absorption spectra, enabling color detection. In this paper, we fabricated a green InGaN-based micro-LED array with integrated emission and detection functions. On the back side of the integrated device, when the 80 μm micro-LED emitted light, the 200 μm LED could receive reflected light to accomplish color detection. The spacing between the 80 μm and the 200 μm micro-LEDs was optimized to be 1 mm to reduce the effect of the direct light transmitted through the n-GaN layer without reflection. The integrated device shows good detection performance for different colors and skin colors, even in a dark environment. In addition, light can be emitted from the top side of the device. Utilization of light from both sides of the integrated device provides the possibility of its application in display, communication, and detection on the different sides.

Abstract
In this paper, we fabricated a 3×3 violet series-biased micro-LED array with high-output optical power and applied it in high-speed and long-distance visible light communication. By employing the orthogonal frequency division multiplexing modulation scheme, distance adaptive pre-equalization, and a bit-loading algorithm, record data rates of 10.23 Gbps, 10.10 Gbps, and 9.51 Gbps were achieved at 0.2 m, 1 m, and 10 m, respectively, below the forward error correction limit of 3.8×10-3. To the best of our knowledge, these are the highest data rates achieved by violet micro-LEDs in free space and the first communication demonstration beyond 9.5 Gbps at 10 m using micro-LEDs.

Abstract
Background Telehealth and telemedicine have become indispensable healthcare delivery tools during the COVID-19 pandemic. Older individuals with cirrhosis have complex medical needs that are currently unmet due to the growing disease burden and decreased access to care. Delivering timely specialist care virtually to older adults with cirrhosis will likely be beneficial and acceptable to such patients; however, this has not yet been prospectively evaluated. Purpose The primary goal is to pilot the delivery of dual specialist care from a hepatologist and geriatrician, delivered virtually, for older adults living with liver cirrhosis who are at high risk of geriatric syndromes (age >/= 65 with frailty, undifferentiated cognitive impairment from dementia or hepatic encephalopathy, recurrent falls, risk factors for polypharmacy and moderate to severe malnutrition). Care is delivered using a dedicated hepatology-geriatric referral pathway. Primary objectives include evaluating the impact of this approach on emergency care and inpatient utilization, along with patient attitude and satisfaction to the virtual interdisciplinary care delivery model. Method This pilot quality improvement study was conducted in Halifax, Nova Scotia. Ethics approval was obtained from the Nova Scotia Health Research Ethics Board and the University of Alberta Research Ethics Board. Fifty to one hundred participants (age 65 years or older with at least one geriatric syndrome; diagnosis of liver cirrhosis by liver elastography or liver biopsy, or Fibrosis-4 Index for Liver Fibrosis greater than three and having radiological features of cirrhosis and/or portal hypertension) were recruited between September 2022 to December 2022 at the time of their hepatology consultation. After consent and screening, each patient underwent a telehealth appointment by zoom with a geriatrician within four weeks of their initial hepatology assessment. Follow-up by telephone using a standardized survey regarding ease of access and quality of their telehealth experience then occurred at 3-4 weeks, 3 months and 6 months for emergency room visits and hospital admission status.

Abstract
CsPbBr3 perovskite quantum dots (PQDs) as promising color conversion materials have been widely used in display and visible light communication (VLC), but most CsPbBr3 PQDs for VLC are randomly selected without optimization. Thereby the exploration of fundamental experimental parameters of QDs is essential to better employ their performance advantages. Herein, we investigated the concentration and solvent effects on photoluminescence (PL) properties and communication performance of CsPbBr3 PQDs. The PL, time-resolved PL characterization and communication measurements of CsPbBr3 PQDs all exhibit concentration dependence, suggesting that there exists an optimum concentration to take advantages of performance merits. CsPbBr3 PQDs with a concentration of 0.5 mg/ml show the shortest carrier lifetime and achieve the highest -3 dB bandwidth (168.03 MHz) as well as the highest data rate (660 Mbps) comparing to other concentrations. And in terms of the optimal concentration, we further explored the approach to improve the communication performance, investigating the effect of polarity solvent on the communication performance of CsPbBr3 PQDs. Original 0.5 mg/ml CsPbBr3 PQDs (1 ml) with 55 μL ethanol added in obtain a higher -3 dB bandwidth of 363.68 MHz improved by ∼116.4% and a record data rate of 1.25 Gbps improved by ∼89.4% but weaker PL emission due to energy transfer. The energy transfer assisted improvement may open up a promising avenue to improve the communication performance of QDs, but more feasible energy transfer path needs to be explored to ensure the stability of QDs.

Abstract
The current understanding regarding the potential influence of aerosol chemistry on the optical properties does not satisfy accurate evaluation of aerosol radiative effects and precise determination of aerosol sources. We conducted a comprehensive study of the potential influence of aerosol chemistry on the optical properties in a semi-arid region based on various observations. Organic matter was the main contributor to the scattering coefficients followed by secondary inorganic aerosols in all seasons. We further related aerosol absorption to elemental carbon, organic matter, and mineral dust. Results showed that organic matter and mineral dust contributed to >40% of the aerosol absorption in the ultraviolet wavelengths. Therefore, it is necessary to consider the absorption of organic matter and mineral dust in addition to that of elemental carbon. We further investigated the potential influence of chemical composition, especially of organic matter and mineral dust on the optical parameters. Mineral dust contributed to higher absorption efficiency and lower scattering efficiency in winter. The absorption Ångström exponent (AAE) was mostly sensitive to organic matter and mineral dust in winter and spring, respectively; it was relatively high (i.e., 1.68) in winter and moderate (i.e., 1.42) in spring. Unlike in the other seasons, mineral dust contributed to higher mass absorption efficiency in winter. This work reveals the complexity of the relationship between aerosol chemistry and optical properties, and especially the influence of organic matter and mineral dust on aerosol absorption. The results are highly important regarding both regional air pollution and climate.

Abstract
PMMA bone cement has been clinically used for decades in vertebroplasty due to its high mechanical strength and satisfactory injectability. However, the interface between bone and PMMA is fragile and more prone to refracture in situ because PMMA lacks a proper biological response from the host bone with minimal bone integration and dense fibrous tissue formation. Here, we modified PMMA by incoporating borosilicate glass (BSG) with a dual glass network of [BO3] and [SiO4], which spontaneously modulates immunity and osteogenesis. In particular, the BSG modified PMMA bone cement (abbreviated as BSG/PMMA cement) provided an alkaline microenvironment that spontaneously balanced the activities between osteoclasts and osteoblasts. Furthermore, the trace elements released from the BSGs enhanced the osteogenesis to strengthen the interface between the host bone and the implant. This study shows the first clinical case after implantation of BSG/PMMA for three months using the dual-energy CT, which found apatite nucleation around PMMA instead of fibrous tissues, indicating the biological interface was formed. Therefore, BSG/PMMA is promising as a biomaterial in vertebroplasty, overcoming the drawback of PMMA by improving the biological response from the host bone.

Abstract
In this work, we demonstrated a convenient and reliable method to realize the vertical stack integration of the blue and yellow InGaN micro-LED arrays. The standard white and color-tunable micro-light sources can be achieved by adjusting the current densities injection of the micro-LEDs. The spectra cover violet, standard white, cyan, etc., showing an excellent color-tunable property. And the mixed standard white light can be separated into red-green-blue three primary colors through the color filters to realize full-color micro-LED display with a color gamut of 75% NTSC. Besides, the communication capability of the integrated micro-LED arrays as visible light communication (VLC) transmitters is demonstrated with a maximum total data rate of 2.35 Gbps in the wavelength division multiplexing (WDM) experimental set-up using orthogonal frequency division multiplexing modulation. In addition, a data rate of 250 Mbps is also realized with the standard white light using on-off keying (OOK) modulation. This integrated device shows great potential in full-color micro-LED display, color-tunable micro-light sources, and high-speed WDM VLC multifunctional applications.

Abstract
In order to cover the bandwidth of optical fiber communication, a LP01-LP11 ultra-broadband mode converter based on triple superimposed long period grating in PCF is proposed and demonstrated. The transmission spectra of the D-SLPG with gratings pitches and the T-SLPG were simulated and analyzed. The simulation results on the D-SLPG indicate that the 3 dB bandwidth of the D-SLPG is more than 1.5 times than the 3 dB bandwidth of the independent LPG and the 3 dB bandwidth of T-SLPG approaches 2.6 times as much as the independent LPG. In the experiment, the mode converter based on PCF-T-SLPG covers the wavelength of S + C + L with 3 dB bandwidth of 121 nm from 1498 nm to 1619 nm. In addition, the mode converter based on PCF-T-SLPG can accomplish ultra-broadband transmission in any wavelength by adjusting the period of gratings.

Abstract
Efficient design of functional proteins with higher thermal stability remains challenging especially for highly diverse sequence variants. Considering the evolutionary pressure on protein folds, sequence design optimizing evolutionary fitness could help designing folds with higher stability. Using a generative evolution fitness model trained to capture variation patterns in natural sequences, we designed artificial sequences of a proteinaceous inhibitor of pectin methylesterase enzymes. These inhibitors have considerable industrial interest to avoid phase separation in fruit juice manufacturing or reduce methanol in distillates, averting chromatographic passages triggering unwanted aroma loss. Six out of seven designs with up to 30 % divergence to other inhibitor sequences are functional and two have improved thermal stability. This method can improve protein stability expanding functional protein sequence space, with traits valuable for industrial applications and scientific research.

Abstract
The synergistic response of urban atmospheric aerosols and ozone (O3) to reduction of anthropogenic emissions is complicated and still needs further study. Thus, the changes in physical and chemical properties of urban atmospheric aerosols and O3 during the Coronavirus Disease 2019 (COVID-19) lockdown were investigated at three urban sites and one rural site in Lanzhou with semi-arid climate. Fine particulate matter (PM2.5) decreased at four sites by ∼ 20% while O3 increased by >100% at two urban sites during the COVID-19 lockdown. Both primary emissions and secondary formation of PM2.5 decreased during the lockdown. Significant increase in both sulfur and nitrogen oxidation ratios was found in the afternoon, which accounted for 48.7% of the total sulfate and 40.4% of the total nitrate, respectively. The positive matrix factorization source apportionment revealed increased contribution of secondary formation and decreased contribution of vehicle emissions. Aerosol scattering and absorption decreased by 33.6% and 45.3%, resulting in an increase in visibility by 30% and single scattering albedo (SSA) at 520 nm slightly increased by 0.02. The enhanced O3 production was explained by increased volatile organic compounds to nitrogen oxides ratio, decreased aerosol, as well as increased SSA. The primary emissions of secondary aerosol precursors significantly decreased while Ox (i.e., NO2 and O3) exhibited little change. Consequently, Ox to CO ratio, PM2.5 to elemental carbon (EC) ratio, secondary inorganic aerosols to EC ratio, and secondary organic carbon to EC ratio increased, confirming enhanced secondary aerosol production efficiency during the lockdown. Positive feedback among O3 concentration, secondary aerosol formation, and SSA was revealed to further promote O3 production and secondary aerosol formation. These results provide scientific guidance for collaborative management of O3 and particulate matter pollution for cities with semi-arid climate.

Abstract
Micro-LED has attracted tremendous attention as next-generation display, but InGaN red-green-blue (RGB) based high-efficiency micro-LEDs, especially red InGaN micro-LED, face significant challenges and the optoelectronic performance is inevitably affected by environmental factors such as varying temperature and operating current density. Here, we demonstrated the RGB InGaN micro-LEDs, and investigated the effects of temperature and current density for the InGaN RGB micro-LED display. We found that temperature increase can lead to the changes of electrical characteristics, the shifts in electroluminescence spectra, the increase of full width at half maximum and the decreases of light output power, external quantum efficiency, power efficiency, and ambient contrast ratios, while current density increase can also give rise to different changing trends of the varieties of parameters mentioned just above for the RGB micro-LED display, creating great challenges for its application in practical scenarios. Despite of the varying electrical and optical charateristics, relatively high and stable colour gamut of the RGB display can be maintained under changing temperature and current density. Based on the results above, mechanisms on the temperature and current density effects were analyzed in detail, which would be helpful to predict the parameters change of micro-LED display caused by temperature and current density, and provided guidance for improving the performance of InGaN micro-LED display in the future.

Abstract
Lanzhou, which is a valley city on the Loess Plateau, frequently suffered from aerosol pollution in recent years, especially in winter. However, the lack of understanding of factors governing aerosol pollution limits the implementation of effective emission policies in and around Lanzhou. To help solve this problem, an intensive field campaign was conducted at the SACOL site, which is a suburban site near Lanzhou, in winter 2018. The chemical characteristics and sources of submicron particulate matter (PM1) were investigated, and the influence of the topography around Lanzhou on aerosol pollution was examined. In the present study, the average PM1 mass concentration reached 25.6 ± 12.8 μg m-3, with 41.0% organics, 16.1% sulfate, 19.7% nitrate, 10.7% ammonium, 3.1% chloride, and 9.4% black carbon (BC). Three organic aerosol (OA) factors were identified with the positive matrix factorization (PMF) algorithm, including a biomass burning OA (BBOA, 13.6%), a coal combustion OA (CCOA, 34.2%), and an oxygenated OA (OOA, 52.2%). The significant relationships between organics, BC, and chloride and wind pattern suggested that the SACOL site was strongly influenced by regionally transported aerosols. Further analysis suggested that these aerosol regional transport events were caused by topography. Due to the limitation of the valley, aerosols accumulated in the valley. These accumulated aerosols were then transported to the SACOL site along the valley by prevailing winds. Our study highlights enhanced aerosol regional transport in valleys, which provides a new perspective for future studies on aerosol pollution in basins and valleys.

Abstract
In this Letter, a record modulation bandwidth of 1.31 GHz was achieved by a 10 µm c-plane green micro light emitting diode (micro-LED) at a current density of 41.4 kA/cm2. Furthermore, by designing a series-biased 20 µm micro-LED with higher light output power, combined with an orthogonal frequency division multiplexing modulation scheme, a maximum data rate of 5.789 Gbps was achieved at a free-space transmission distance of 0.5 m. This work demonstrates the prospect of c-plane polar green micro-LED in ultrahigh-speed visible light communication, which is expected to realize a high-performance wireless system in the future.

Abstract
Background To investigate the prognostic significance of station 4R lymph node (LN) dissection in patients who underwent operations for right primary non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC). Methods We performed a retrospective study involving patients with right primary NSCLC who received lobotomy or pneumonectomy with mediastinal LN dissection between January 2011 and December 2017. Propensity score matching was performed. Disease-free survival (DFS) and overall survival (OS) were compared between patients with and without station 4R dissection. Results Our study included 2070 patients, with 207 patients having no station 4R dissection (S4RD− group) and 1863 patients having station 4R dissection (S4RD+ group). The 4R LN metastasis rate was 13.4% (142/1748), higher than that for other mediastinal LN metastases. Compared with the S4RD− group, the S4RD+ group had higher 5-year DFS (48.1% vs. 39.1%, P = 0.009) and OS (54.4% vs. 42.8%, P = 0.025). Station 4R dissection was an independent risk factor for DFS (odds ratio, OR, 1.28, 95% confidence interval, CI, 1.08–1.64, P = 0.007) and OS (OR 1.31, 95% CI 1.04–1.63, P = 0.018). Patients with adjuvant chemotherapy had a better prognosis after station 4R dissection than those without adjuvant chemotherapy (57.4% vs. 52.3%, P = 0.006). The 5-year OS in the station 4R metastasis group was lower than that in the station 4R non-metastasis group (26.9% vs. 44.3%, P = 0.006) among N2 patients. The 5-year OS of the single-station 4R metastasis group was lower than that of the single-station 7 metastasis group (15.7% vs. 51.6%, P = 0.002). Conclusions Station 4R metastasis was the highest among all the mediastinal station metastases in right primary NSCLC patients. Station 4R dissection can improve the prognosis and should be recommended as a routine procedure for these patients.

Abstract
Deep-ultraviolet (DUV) solar-blind communication (SBC) shows distinct advantages of non-line-of-sight propagation and background noise negligibility over conventional visible-light communication. AlGaN-based DUV micro-light-emitting diodes (µ-LEDs) are an excellent candidate for a DUV-SBC light source due to their small size, low power consumption, and high modulation bandwidth. A long-haul DUV-SBC system requires the light source exhibiting high output power, high modulation bandwidth, and high rate, simultaneously. Such a device is rarely reported. A parallel-arrayed planar (PAP) approach is here proposed to satisfy those requirements. By reducing the dimensions of the active emission mesa to micrometer scale, DUV µ-LEDs with ultrahigh power density are created due to their homogeneous injection current and enhanced planar isotropic light emission. Interconnected PAP µ-LEDs with a diameter of 25 µm are produced. This device has an output power of 83.5 mW with a density of 405 W cm-2 at 230 mA, a wall-plug efficiency (WPE) of 4.7% at 155 mA, and a high -3 dB modulation bandwidth of 380 MHz. The remarkable high output power and efficiency make those devices a reliable platform to develop high-modulation-bandwidth wireless communication and to meet the requirements for bio-elimination.

Abstract
Single-atom noble metal catalysts have been widely studied for catalytic oxidation of CO. Regulating the coordination environment of single metal atom site is an effective strategy to improve the intrinsic catalytic activity of single atom catalyst. In this work, single atom Pd catalyst supported on Pr-doped CeO2 nanorods was prepared, and the performance and nature of Pr-coordinated atomic Pd site in CO catalytic oxidation are systematically investigated. The structure characterization using AC-HAADF-STEM, EXAFS, XRD and Raman spectroscopy demonstrate the formation of single atom Pd site and abundant surface oxygen vacancies on the surface of Pr-doped CeO2 nanorod. With the combination of the XPS characterization and DFT calculations, the oxidation state of Pd on Pr-doped CeO2 nanorod is determined lower than that on CeO2 nanorod. The turnover frequency of CO oxidation is markedly increased from 8.4 × 10-3 to 31.9 × 10-3 s with Pr-doping at 130 ºC and GHSV of 70,000 h-1. Combined with kinetic studies, DRIFT and DFT calculations, the doped-Pr atoms reduced the formation energy of oxygen vacancies and generate more oxygen vacancies around the atomically dispersed Pd sites on the surface of cerium oxide, which reduces the dissociation energy of oxygen, thereby accelerating the reaction rate of CO oxidation.

Abstract
Ribonucleic acid (RNA) and proteins play critical roles in gene expression and regulation. The relevant study increases the understanding of various life processes and contributes to the diagnosis and treatment of different diseases. RNA imaging and mapping RNA-protein interactions expand the understanding of RNA biology. However, the existing methods have some limitations. Recently, precise RNA targeting of CRISPR-Cas13 in cells has been reported, which is considered a new promising platform for RNA imaging in living cells and recognition of RNA-protein interactions. In this review, we first described the current findings on Cas13. Furthermore, we introduced current tools of RNA real-time imaging and mapping RNA-protein interactions and highlighted the latest advances in Cas13-mediated tools. Finally, we discussed the advantages and disadvantages of Cas13-based methods, providing a set of new ideas for the optimization of Cas13-mediated methods.

Abstract
The vertical distribution of atmospheric aerosols plays an essential role in aerosol-radiation and aerosol-cloud interactions. Because of strong light absorption, the radiative effects of black carbon (BC) are highly sensitive to its vertical distribution; the lack of high-resolution observations is the reason for their poor quantification. We used a tethered balloon platform to acquire high-resolution vertical profiles of BC, particle number concentration, and meteorological parameters in the semi-arid region of Northwest China in December 2018. A total of 112 BC profiles were classified into four vertical distribution categories, which were determined by local emissions, regional transport, vertical mixing due to the ABL evolution, and topography. BC profiles with peaks near or above the atmospheric boundary layer (ABL) accounted for 57% of the profiles. Vertical single scattering albedo (SSA) profiles were subsequently calculated using the profiles of BC and particle size distribution. The vertical SSA distribution is generally modulated by BC profiles. The diurnal variations of the BC and SSA profiles were summarized using a boundary-layer normalization method. In the ABL, BC decreased and SSA increased with increasing height at 02:00, 08:00, and 20:00, while both BC and SSA exhibited a uniform distribution at 14:00. The SSA decreased above the ABL at 14:00, which might have had a profound impact on ABL development. These results provide a better understanding of the vertical BC and SSA distributions, which can also be used to reduce uncertainties in estimating the BC radiative effects.

Abstract
In this Letter, high-speed optical wireless communication (OWC) with three light-emitting diodes (LED) and five micro-LEDs (μLEDs) is proposed as a proof-of-concept wavelength division multiplexing (WDM) system. It covers a wide spectrum from deep ultraviolet (UV) to visible light and thus could offer both visible light communication (VLC) and UV communication simultaneously. An aggregated data rate of up to 25.20 Gbps over 25 cm free space is achieved, which, to the best of our knowledge, is the highest data rate for LED-based OWC ever reported. Among them, the five μLEDs offer a data rate of up to 18.43 Gbps, which, to the best of our knowledge, is the highest data rate for μLED-based OWC so far. It shows the superiority and potential of μLEDs for WDM-OWC. Additionally, a data rate of 20.11 Gbps for VLC is achieved.

Abstract
BACKGROUND We aimed to develop a prognostic nomogram based on a new classification of combined micropapillary and solid components in pathological stage IA invasive lung adenocarcinoma (LUAD). METHODS According to the total proportion of solid and micropapillary components (TPSM), the X-tile software was applied to classify patients into the following three groups: TPSM-low (TPSM-L), TPSM-middle (TPSM-M), and TPSM-high (TPSM-H). The postoperative survival was compared among the three groups. The multivariate Cox regression analysis was performed to identify independent prognostic factors for survival. According to these factors, a nomogram model was developed to provide a personalized prognostic evaluation. RESULTS A total of 595 patients with pathological stage IA invasive LUAD were included in our study. The 5-year disease-free survival and overall survival rates in patients with TPSM-H and TPSM-M were significantly lower than those with TPSM-L. The multivariate Cox regression analysis revealed that the TPSM classification was an independent prognostic factor for survival. According to TPSM classification, we developed a nomogram model which had good calibration and reliable discrimination ability to evaluate survival. CONCLUSIONS The nomogram based on the combination of micropapillary and solid components has good prognostic value in predicting postoperative recurrence and survival of patients with pathological stage IA invasive LUAD.

Abstract
The quantitative estimation of urban particulate matter (PM) sources is essential but limited because of various reasons. The hourly online data of PM2.5, organic carbon (OC), elemental carbon (EC), water-soluble ions, and elements from December 2019 to November 2020 was used to conduct PM source appointment, with an emphasis on the contribution of vehicle emissions to fine PM pollution in downtown Lanzhou, Northwest China. Vehicle emissions, secondary formation, mineral dust, and coal combustion were found to be the major PM sources using the positive matrix factorization model. The seasonal mean PM2.5 were estimated to be 72.8, 39.2, 24.3, and 43.6 μg·m-3 and vehicle emissions accounted for 35.7%, 25.8%, 30.0%, and 56.6% in winter, spring, summer, and autumn, respectively. Vehicle emissions were the largest source of PM considering the high PM pollution in winter and its significantly large contribution in autumn. Furthermore, the contribution of vehicle emissions increased with increasing PM in winter and autumn. Vehicle emissions were also the most important source of EC, accounting for 70.3%, 91.0%, 83.5%, and 93.7% of the total EC in winter, spring, summer, and autumn, respectively. With the reduction in industrial emissions and increase in vehicle numbers in China in recent years, vehicle emissions are going to be the largest source of urban PM pollution. To sustainably improve air quality in Lanzhou and other Chinese cities, efforts should be made to control vehicle emissions such as promoting clean-energy vehicles and encouraging public transportation.

Abstract
GaN-based micro-LED is an emerging display and communication device, which can work as well as a photodetector, enabling possible applications in machine vision. In this work, we measured the characteristics of micro-LED based photodetector experimentally and proposed a feasible simulation of a novel artificial neural network (ANN) device for the first time based on a micro-LED based photodetector array, providing ultrafast imaging (∼133 million bins per second) and a high image recognition rate. The array itself constitutes a neural network, in which the synaptic weights are tunable by the bias voltage. It has the potentials to be integrated with novel machine vision and reconfigurable computing applications, acting as a role of acceleration and similar functionality expansion. Also, the multi-functionality of micro-LED broadens its application potentials of combining ANN with display and communication.

Abstract
Plant metabolism depends on cascade reactions mediated by dynamic enzyme assemblies known as metabolons. In this context, the cytochrome P450 (P450) superfamily catalyze key reactions underpinning the unique diversity of bioactive compounds. In contrast to their soluble bacterial counterparts, eukaryotic P450s are anchored to the endoplasmic reticulum membrane and serve as metabolon nucleation sites. Hence, membrane anchoring appears to play a pivotal role in the evolution of complex biosynthetic pathways. Here, a model membrane assay enabled characterization of membrane anchor dynamics by single molecule microscopy. As a model system, we reconstituted the membrane anchor of cytochrome P450 oxidoreductase (POR), the ubiquitous electron donor to all microsomal P450s. The transmembrane segment in the membrane anchor of POR is relatively conserved, corroborating its functional importance. We observe dynamic colocalization of the POR anchors in our assay suggesting that membrane anchoring might promote intermolecular interactions and in this way impact assembly of metabolic multienzyme complexes.

Abstract
In this Letter, we have successfully realized the full-color micro-LED display on a single-chip utilizing multi-wavelength multi-quantum wells (MQWs). The epitaxial wafer used for micro-LED array chips is designed with two types of MQWs including In0.1Ga0.9N/GaN and In0.55Ga0.45N/GaN grown by metal-organic chemical vapor deposition (MOCVD). A single-chip broad-spectrum multi-wavelength emission from 620 to 450 nm can be realized by changing the injection current to realize the regulation of carrier injection in the MQWs with different emission wavelengths. And the full-color micro-LED display with uniform brightness can be achieved by adopting the pulse width modulation (PWM) to adjust the duty cycle of micro-LED pixels at different pulse voltages. We expect this study will provide a promising research direction for full-color micro-LED displays, thus effectively avoiding the problems caused during the massive transfer and color conversion.

Abstract
BACKGROUND The diagnosis of olfactory dysfunction is challenging given the negligence during routine physical examination, inconvenience of diagnosis in clinical practice, and the inattention to cross-cultural adaptability. The study aimed to develop and validate a simple and effective self-reported olfactory dysfunction questionnaire (SODQ) for the initial screening of clinical olfactory disorders in China. METHODS A total of 121 subjects participated in the study; of these, 96 subjects completed the T&T olfactometer test and 12-item questionnaire, and 25 participants were retested using the SODQ after one week. The T&T olfactometer test examined the olfactory function and the questionnaire measured the ability to perceive common odors in daily life. We evaluated the factor structure, reliability, validity, and discriminative ability of the SODQ. RESULTS The final version of the SODQ consisted of 10 items with one factor. Test-retest and internal consistency were excellent. Convergent validity of the questionnaire with the T&T olfactory test was high. Furthermore, the discrimination ability was high for the questionnaire with an area under the curve of 0.95 and a cut-off point of 22. CONCLUSIONS The SODQ is a brief, valid, and repeatable tool that has the potential to effectively screen for clinical olfactory disorders from a subjective perspective.

Abstract
Unveiling the structural evolution and working mechanism of catalysts under realistic operating conditions is crucial for the design of efficient electrocatalysts for CO2 electroreduction, yet remains highly challenging. Here, by virtue of operando structural measurements at multiscale levels, it is identified under CO2 electroreduction conditions that an as-prepared CeO2/BiOCl precatalyst gradually evolves into CeOx/Bi interface structure with enriched Ce3+ species, which serves as the real catalytically active phase. The derived CeOx/Bi interface structure compared to pure Bi counterpart delivers substantially enhanced performance with a formate Faradaic efficiency approaching 90% for 24 hours in a wide potential window. The formate Faradaic efficiency can be further increased by using isotope D2O instead of H2O. Density functional theory calculations suggest that the regenerative CeOx/Bi interfacial sites can not only promote water activation to increase local *H species for CO2 protonation appropriately, but also stabilize the key intermediate *OCHO in formate pathway.

Abstract
The hypoxia-inducible factor 1-alpha (HIF-1a) pathway plays a key role in regulating angiogenesis during wound healing. However, the diabetic condition hampers the stabilization of HIF-1a and thus inhibits the subsequent angiogenesis, and meanwhile, the function and phenotype transition of macrophage are impaired in the diabetic condition, which leads to prolonged and chronic inflammation. Both angiogenesis inhibition and inflammatory dysfunction make diabetic wound healing a major clinical challenge. Here, borosilicate (BS), a new group of bioceramics with a coupled network of interconnected [BO3] and [SiO4] which can incorporate therapeutic ions such as Cu2+, is synthesized and combined with silk fibroin (SF), a biocompatible natural amino acid polymer whose composition and structure are similar to a natural extracellular matrix (ECM), to obtain a compound system which can transform into a SF-MA-BS hydrogel under UV radiation via methacryloyloxy (MA) groups modified on both BS and SF. When in use, the compound system can thoroughly spread to the whole wound surface and be in situ photo-cross-linked to form an integral SF-MA-BS hydrogel that firmly adheres to the wound, protects the wound from external contamination, and further spontaneously promotes wound regeneration by releasing therapeutic ions. The wound repair of Streptozotocin-induced diabetic rats shows that diabetic wound healing is obviously accelerated by SF-MA-BS, interestingly the HIF-1a pathway is restored via interaction between HIF-1a and Cu2+, and angiogenesis is therefore enhanced. Meanwhile, inflammation is well regulated by SF-MA-BS, and long-term detrimental inflammation is avoided. These findings indicate that the SF-MA-BS hydrogel regenerates diabetic wounds, and further clinical trials are anticipated.

Abstract
Proteins commonly fold co-translationally at the ribosome, while the nascent chain emerges from the ribosomal exit tunnel. Protein domains that are sufficiently small can even fold while still located inside the tunnel. However, the effect of the tunnel on the folding dynamics of these domains is not well understood. Here, we combine optical tweezers with single-molecule FRET and molecular dynamics simulations to investigate folding of the small zinc-finger domain ADR1a inside and at the vestibule of the ribosomal tunnel. The tunnel is found to accelerate folding and stabilize the folded state, reminiscent of the effects of chaperonins. However, a simple mechanism involving stabilization by confinement does not explain the results. Instead, it appears that electrostatic interactions between the protein and ribosome contribute to the observed folding acceleration and stabilization of ADR1a.

Abstract
In this Letter, we experimentally achieve high-speed ultraviolet-C (UVC) communication based on a 276.8 nm UVC micro-LED. A record ${-}{{3}}\;{\rm{dB}}$ optical bandwidth of 452.53 MHz and light output power of 0.854 mW at a current density of ${{400}}\;{\rm{A/c}}{{\rm{m}}^2}$ are obtained with a chip size of 100 µm. A UVC link over 0.5 m with a data rate of 2 Gbps is achieved using 16-ary quadrature amplitude modulation orthogonal frequency division multiplexing and pre-equalization, and an extended distance over 3 m with a data rate of 0.82 Gbps is also presented. The demonstrated high-speed performance shows that micro-LEDs have great potential in the field of UVC communication.
