Abstract
The design of high-entropy single-atom catalysts (HESAC) with 5.2 times higher entropy compared to single-atom catalysts (SAC) is proposed, by using four different metals (FeCoNiRu-HESAC) for oxygen reduction reaction (ORR). Fe active sites with intermetallic distances of 6.1 Å exhibit a low ORR overpotential of 0.44 V, which originates from weakening the adsorption of OH intermediates. Based on density functional theory (DFT) findings, the FeCoNiRu-HESAC with a nitrogen-doped sample were synthesized. The atomic structures are confirmed with X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy (XPS), X-ray absorption (XAS), and scanning transmission electron microscopy (STEM). The predicted high catalytic activity is experimentally verified, finding that FeCoNiRu-HESAC has overpotentials of 0.41 and 0.37 V with Tafel slopes of 101 and 210 mVdec-1 at the current density of 1 mA cm-2 and the kinetic current densities of 8.2 and 5.3 mA cm-2, respectively, in acidic and alkaline electrolytes. These results are comparable with Pt/C. The FeCoNiRu-HESAC is used for Zinc-air battery applications with an open circuit potential of 1.39 V and power density of 0.16 W cm-2. Therefore, a strategy guided by DFT is provided for the rational design of HESAC which can be replaced with high-cost Pt catalysts toward ORR and beyond.

Abstract
Since the birth of the computational hydrogen electrode approach, it is considered that activity trends of electrocatalysts in a homologous series can be quantified by the construction of volcano plots. This method aims to steer materials discovery by the identification of catalysts with an improved reaction kinetics, though evaluated by means of thermodynamic descriptors. The conventional approach for the volcano plot of the oxygen evolution reaction (OER) relies on the assumption of the mononuclear mechanism, comprising the * OH, * O, and * OOH intermediates. In the present manuscript, two new mechanistic pathways, comprising the idea of the Walden inversion in that bond-breaking and bond-making occurs simultaneously, are factored into a potential-dependent OER activity volcano plot. Surprisingly, it turns out that the Walden inversion plays an important role since the activity volcano is governed by mechanistic pathways comprising Walden steps rather than by the traditionally assumed reaction mechanisms under typical OER conditions.

Abstract
The simplest approach to convey the results of scientific analysis, which can include complex comparisons, is typically through the use of visual items, including figures and plots. These statistical plots play a critical role in scientific studies, making data more accessible, engaging, and informative. A growing number of visual representations have been utilized recently to graphically display the results of oncologic imaging, including radiomic and radiogenomic studies. Here, we review the applications, distinct properties, benefits, and drawbacks of various statistical plots. Furthermore, we provide neuroradiologists with a comprehensive understanding of how to use these plots to effectively communicate analytical results based on imaging data.

Abstract
Glaucoma is the most common cause of blindness, which significantly reduces quality of life. Most glaucoma cases are primary glaucoma; nevertheless, many patients suffer from glaucoma caused by drugs, such as corticosteroids. A comprehensive review of the risks associated with corticosteroid-induced glaucoma is limited. Therefore, we used the Japanese Adverse Drug Event Reporting Database (JADER) published by the Pharmaceuticals and Medical Devices Agency (PMDA) to analyze the risk factors associated with glaucoma and the trends and characteristics of corticosteroid-induced glaucoma. We did not find sex or age differences associated with the onset of glaucoma. Hierarchical clustering and principal component analysis revealed that triamcinolone acetonide and betamethasone sodium phosphate, which are used around the eyes in Japan, are more likely to induce intraocular pressure (IOP) elevation compared with other corticosteroids. Increased IOP is a direct cause of glaucoma. Based on these findings, it may be necessary to limit or avoid the use of these corticosteroids.

Abstract
The current study aimed to identify the crude drugs associated with drug-induced liver injury (DILI) in 148 Kampo medicines prescribed throughout Japan using the Japanese Adverse Drug Event Report (JADER) database, a large-scale spontaneous reporting system in Japan. First, we tabulated the number of DILI reports from the report-based dataset and the background information from the patient-based dataset. Thereafter, we combined the 126 crude drugs into 104 crude drug groups to examine multicollinearity. Finally, the reporting odds ratios (RORs), 95% confidence intervals, p values for Fisher's exact test, and number of reports were calculated for each crude group to identify those associated with DILI. Notably, the number of adverse event reports for DILI (63,955) exceeded that for interstitial lung disease (51,347), the most common adverse event. In total, 78 crude drug groups (90 crude drugs) were reported to have an ROR > 1, a p < 0.05, and ≥10 reported cases. Our results highlight DILI as an essential issue, given that it was among the most frequently reported adverse drug reactions. We were able to clearly identify the crude drugs associated with DILI, which could help manage adverse drug reactions attributed to Kampo medicines and crude drugs.

Abstract
Uniform magnesium (Mg) plating/stripping under high areal capacity utilization is critical for the practical application of Mg-metal anodes in rechargeable Mg batteries. However, the failure of the Mg-metal anode when cycling under a practical areal capacity (>4 mA h cm-2 ), is of rising concern. The mechanism behind these failures remains controversial. In this work, it is illustrated that the initial plating Mg can be undoubtedly uniform in a wide range of current densities (≤5 mA cm-2 ) and under a practical areal capacity (6 mA h cm-2 ). However, an unusual self-accelerating pit growth is observed in the Mg stripping side under moderate current densities (0.1-1 mA cm-2 ), which severely deteriorates the anode integrity and subsequent Mg plating uniformity, causing failure of the Mg-metal anode or short circuit of the battery. The stripping morphology depends on the applied current density, as non-uniformity versus the current density displays a volcano plot during the stripping process. Through in situ spectroscopy, it is illustrated that this current-dependent behavior is determined by the evolution of chlorine-containing complex ions near the interface. This research reminds that the plating/stripping process of the Mg-metal anode must be considered comprehensively for practical Mg-metal batteries.

Abstract
Fractures occur when bones become fragile and are subjected to external forces as occurring during falls. The use of drugs that increase bone fragility or fall risk increases the risk of fracture. This study investigates drug-induced fractures reported in the Japanese Adverse Drug Event Report (JADER) database in patients using 4892 drugs. Atypical femur fracture was the most frequently reported fracture, and 58 other fractures were also reported. Using Volcano plots and multiple logistic regression analysis, we identified the risk factors for drug-induced fractures as being female, of older age, higher body mass index, and using one of 90 drugs. The drug groups significantly associated with drug-induced fractures included bone resorption inhibitors, antiviral drugs, dopaminergic drugs, corticosteroids, and sleep sedatives. Principal component analysis was used to examine the relationship between the use of specific drugs and the site of drug-induced fracture. Bone resorption inhibitors and corticosteroids were associated with atypical femur fractures, jaw fractures, and ulna fractures through an osteoclast-mediated process. Other drugs were found to increase fracture risk via non-osteoclast-mediated mechanisms. These findings suggest that many drugs can result in drug-induced fractures through a variety of mechanisms.

Abstract
Bifunctional transition metal complexes are of particular interest in metal-ligand cooperative activation of small molecules. As a novel type of bifunctional catalyst, Lewis acid transition metal (LA-TM) complexes have attracted increasing interest in hydrogen activation and storage. To advance the catalyst design, herein the metal effect of LA-TM complexes on the hydrogen activation has been systematically studied with a series of tris(phosphino)borane (TPB) complexes with V, Cr, Mn, Fe, Co, and Ni as metal centers. The metal effect not only influences the mechanism of hydrogen activation, but also notably casts a volcano plot for the activity. TPB complexes of V, Cr, Mn, Fe, and Co tend to activate H2 through a stepwise mechanism, while TPB-Ni prefers a synergetic mechanism for H2 activation. More importantly, the metal effect significantly influences the activity of H2 activation and the formation of the LA-H-TM bridging hydride. The trend of changes in the LA-H-TM structures, the second-order perturbation stabilization energies, and the Laplacian bond orders, along with different metals (from V to Ni), are all interestingly constitute volcano plots for the performance of TPB-TM complexes catalyzed H2 activation. TPB-Mn and TPB-Fe are found to be the optimal catalysts among the discussed TPB-TM complexes. The volcano plots disclosed for the metal effects should be informative and instructive for homogeneous and heterogeneous LA-TM catalysts development.

Abstract
Efficient solar water photosplitting is plagued by large overpotentials of the HER and OER. Even with a noble metal catalyst, the hydrogen evolution reaction can be limited by the strong M-H bonding over some metals, such as Pt, Pd, and Rh, inhibiting hydrogen desorption. H absorption is regulated by the potential at the metal nanoparticles. Through controlled periodic illumination of a Pt/TiO2 suspension, we hypothesized a fast variation of the photopotential that induced catalytic surface resonance on the metal, resulting in more than a 50% increase of the efficiency at frequencies higher than 80 Hz.

Abstract
Therapeutic proteins including antibodies and Fc-fusion proteins undergo a large number of chemical modifications during cell culture, purification, storage and in human circulation. They are also exposed to harsh conditions during stress studies, including elevated temperature, extremes of pH, forced oxidation, physiological pH, UV light to assess the possible degradation pathways and suitability of methods for detecting them. Some of these modifications are located on residues in binding regions, leading to loss of binding and potency and classified as critical quality attributes. Currently, criticality of modifications is assessed by a laborious process of collecting antibody fractions from the soft chromatography techniques ion exchange and hydrophobic interaction chromatography and characterizing the fractions one-by-one for potency and chemical modifications. Here, we describe a method for large-scale, parallel identification of all critical chemical modifications in one experiment. In the first step, the antibody is stressed by one or several stress methods. It is then mixed with target protein and separated by size-exclusion chromatography (SEC) on bound antibody-target complex and unbound antibody. Peptide mapping of fractions and statistical analysis are performed to identify modifications on amino acid residues that affect binding. To identify the modifications leading to slight decreases in binding, competitive SEC of antibody and antigen mixtures was developed and described in a companion study by Shi et al, where target protein is provided at lower level, below the stoichiometry. The newly described method was successfully correlated to crystallography for assessing criticality of chemical modifications and paratope mapping. It is more sensitive to low-level modifications, better streamlined and platform ready.

Abstract
Recent investigations reported in the open literature concerning the functionalization of graphene as a support material for transition metal nanoparticle catalysts have examined isolated systems for their potential Oxygen Reduction Reaction (ORR) activity. In this work we present results which characterize the ability to use functionalized graphene (via dopants B, N) to upshift and downshift the adsorption energy of mono-atomic oxygen, O* (the ORR activity descriptor on ORR Volcano Plots), for various compositions of 4-atom, 7-atom, and 19-atom sub-nanometer binary alloy/intermetallic transition metal nanoparticle catalysts on graphene (TMNP-MDG). Our results show several important and interesting features: (1) that the combination of geometric and electronic effects makes development of simple linear mixing rules for size/composition difficult; (2) that the transition from 4- to 7- to 19-atom TMNP on MDG has pronounced effects on ORR activity for all compositions; (3) that the use of B and N as dopants to modulate the graphene-TMNP electronic structure interaction can cause shifts in the oxygen adsorption energy of 0.5 eV or more; (4) that it might be possible to make specific doped-graphene-NixCuy TMNP systems which fall close to the Volcano Peak for ORR. Our results point to systems which should be investigated experimentally and may improve the viability of future fuel cell or other ORR applications, and provide new paths for future investigations of more detail for TMNP-MDG screening.

Abstract
Multimetallic Ir-based systems offer significant opportunities for enhanced oxygen evolution electrocatalysis by modifying the electronic and geometric properties of the active catalyst. Herein, a systematic investigation of bimetallic Ir-based thin films was performed to identify activity and stability trends across material systems for the oxygen evolution reaction (OER) in acidic media. Electron beam evaporation was used to co-deposit metallic films of Ir, IrSn2, IrCr, IrTi, and IrNi. The electrocatalytic activity of the electrochemically oxidized alloys was found to increase in the following order: IrTi < IrSn2 < Ir ∼ IrNi < IrCr. The IrCr system demonstrates two times the catalytic activity of Ir at 1.65 V versus RHE. Density functional theory calculations suggest that this enhancement is due to Cr active sites that have improved oxygen binding energetics compared to those of pure Ir oxide. This work identifies IrCr as a promising new catalyst system that facilitates reduced precious metal loadings for acid-based OER catalysis.

Abstract
Development of effective catalysts for oxygen reduction reaction (ORR) plays a critical role in the applications of a range of electrochemical energy technologies. In this study, thin-layered black phosphorus (TLBP) was used as a unique supporting substrate for the deposition of metal nanoparticles (MNPs, M = Pt, Ag, Au), and the resulting M-TLBP nanocomposites were found to exhibit apparent ORR activity that was readily manipulated by interfacial charge transfer from TLBP to MNPs. This was confirmed by results from X-ray photoelectron spectroscopic measurements and density functional theory calculations. In comparison to the carbon-supported counterparts, Ag-TLBP and Au-TLBP showed enhanced ORR performance, while a diminished performance was observed with Pt-TLBP. This was consistent with the predictions from the "volcano plot". Results from this study suggest that black phosphorus can serve as a unique addition in the toolbox of manipulating electronic properties of supported metal nanoparticles and their electrocatalytic activity.

Abstract
The remodeling of PUFAs by the Lands cycle is responsible for the diversity of phospholipid molecular species found in cells. There have not been detailed studies of the alteration of phospholipid molecular species as a result of serum starvation or depletion of PUFAs that typically occurs during tissue culture. The time-dependent effect of cell culture on phospholipid molecular species in RAW 264.7 cells cultured for 24, 48, or 72 h was examined by lipidomic strategies. These cells were then stimulated to produce arachidonate metabolites derived from the cyclooxygenase pathway, thromboxane B2, PGE2, and PGD2, and the 5-lipoxygenase pathway, leukotriene (LT)B4, LTC4, and 5-HETE, which decreased with increasing time in culture. However, the 5-lipoxygenase metabolites of a 20:3 fatty acid, LTB3, all trans-LTB3, LTC3, and 5-hydroxyeicosatrienoic acid, time-dependently increased. Molecular species of arachidonate containing phospholipids were drastically remodeled during cell culture, with a new 20:3 acyl group being populated into phospholipids to replace increasingly scarce arachidonate. In addition, the amount of TNFα induced by lipopolysaccharide stimulation was significantly increased in the cells cultured for 72 h compared with 24 h, suggesting that the remodeling of PUFAs enhanced inflammatory response. These studies supported the rapid operation of the Lands cycle to maintain cell growth and viability by populating PUFA species; however, without sufficient n-6 fatty acids, 20:3 n-9 accumulated, resulting in altered lipid mediator biosynthesis and inflammatory response.

Abstract
In this work, a planar model electrode method has been used to investigate the structure-activity relationship of multiple noble and 3d metal catalysts for the cathode reaction of Li-O2 battery. The result shows that the battery performance (discharge/charge overpotential) strongly depends not only on the type of catalysts but also on the morphology of the discharge product (Li2O2). Specifically, according to electrochemical characterization and scanning electron microscopy (SEM) observation, noble metals (Pd, Pt, Ru, Ir, and Au) show excellent battery performance (smaller discharge/charge overpotential), with wormlike Li2O2 particles with size less than 200 nm on their surfaces. On the other hand, 3d metals (Fe, Co, Ni, and Mn) offered poor battery performance (larger discharge/charge overpotential), with much larger Li2O2 particles (1 μm to a few microns) on their surfaces after discharging. Further research shows that a "volcano plot" is found by correlating the discharging/charging plateau voltage with the adsorption energy of LiO2 on different metals. The metals with better battery performance and worm-like-shaped Li2O2 are closer to the top of the "volcano", indicating adsorption energy of LiO2 is one of the key characters for the catalyst to reach a good performance for the oxygen electrode of Li-O2 battery, and it has a strong influence on the morphology of the discharge product on the electrode surface.

Abstract
The reciprocal activation of dendritic cells (DCs) and natural killer cells (NKs) plays a key role in both innate and adaptive immunity. The effect of aging on this cross-talk, a critical step in virus disease control and tumor immunology, has not been reported. Splenic DCs and NKs were purified from both young and old C57BL/6 mice and cocultured in the presence of polyinosinic:polycytidylic acid (poly I:C). The resulting activation of NKs was measured as expression of CD69 and secretion of IFN-γ. However, DCs from old mice could not activate NKs from either young or old mice in vitro or in vivo. In contrast, DCs from young mice efficiently activated NKs from both young and old mice. DCs from old mice were deficient in poly I:C-stimulated secretion of IL-15, IL-18, and IFN-α. Gene expression analysis revealed many other differences between DCs of old and young mice. Young mice strongly eradicated MHC class I-negative NK-sensitive RMA-S lymphoma mutant tumor cells, but old mice did not, in concert with the previous report that mousepox kills aged, but not young, C57BL/6 mice. Furthermore, a similar dysfunction of DC and its key role in NK activation was found in 27 out of 55 healthy human donors.
