Facile Fabrication of Large-Area CuO Flakes for Sodium-Ion Energy Storage Applications.

CuO is recognized as a promising anode material for sodium-ion batteries because of its impressive theoretical capacity of 674 mAh g-1, derived from its multiple electron transfer capabilities. However, its practical application is hindered by slow reaction kinetics and rapid capacity loss caused by side reactions during discharge/charge cycles. In this work, we introduce an innovative approach to fabricating large-area CuO and CuO@Al2O3 flakes through a combination of magnetron sputtering, thermal oxidation, and atomic layer deposition techniques. The resultant 2D CuO flakes demonstrate excellent electrochemical properties with a high initial reversible specific capacity of 487 mAh g-1 and good cycling stability, which are attributable to their unique architectures and superior structural durability. Furthermore, when these CuO flakes are coated with an ultrathin Al2O3 layer, the integration of the 2D structures with outer nanocoating leads to significantly enhanced electrochemical properties. Notably, even after 70 rate testing cycles, the CuO@Al2O3 materials maintain a high capacity of 525 mAh g-1 at a current density of 50 mA g-1. Remarkably, at a higher current density of 2000 mA g-1, these materials still achieve a capacity of 220 mAh g-1. Moreover, after 200 cycles at a current density of 200 mA g-1, a high charge capacity of 319 mAh g-1 is sustained. In addition, a full cell consisting of a CuO@Al2O3 anode and a NaNi1/3Fe1/3Mn1/3O2 cathode is investigated, showcasing remarkable cycling performance. Our findings underscore the potential of these innovative flake-like architectures as electrode materials in high-performance sodium-ion batteries, paving the way for advancements in energy storage technologies.

Legume-grass mixtures improve biological nitrogen fixation and nitrogen transfer by promoting nodulation and altering root conformation in different ecological regions of the Qinghai-Tibet Plateau.

Introduction: Biological nitrogen fixation (BNF) plays a crucial role in nitrogen utilization in agroecosystems. Functional characteristics of plants (grasses vs. legumes) affect BNF. However, little is still known about how ecological zones and cropping patterns affect legume nitrogen fixation. This study's objective was to assess the effects of different cropping systems on aboveground dry matter, interspecific relationships, nodulation characteristics, root conformation, soil physicochemistry, BNF, and nitrogen transfer in three ecological zones and determine the main factors affecting nitrogen derived from the atmosphere (Ndfa) and nitrogen transferred (Ntransfer). Methods: The 15N labeling method was applied. Oats (Avena sativa L.), forage peas (Pisum sativum L.), common vetch (Vicia sativa L.), and fava beans (Vicia faba L.) were grown in monocultures and mixtures (YS: oats and forage peas; YJ: oats and common vetch; YC: oats and fava beans) in three ecological regions (HZ: Huangshui Valley; GN: Sanjiangyuan District; MY: Qilian Mountains Basin) in a split-plot design. Results: The results showed that mixing significantly promoted legume nodulation, optimized the configuration of the root system, increased aboveground dry matter, and enhanced nitrogen fixation in different ecological regions. The percentage of nitrogen derived from the atmosphere (%Ndfa) and percentage of nitrogen transferred (%Ntransfer) of legumes grown with different legume types and in different ecological zones were significantly different, but mixed cropping significantly increased the %Ndfa of the legumes. Factors affecting Ndfa included the cropping pattern, the ecological zone (R), the root nodule number, pH, ammonium-nitrogen, nitrate-nitrogen, microbial nitrogen mass (MBN), plant nitrogen content (N%), and aboveground dry biomass. Factors affecting Ntransfer included R, temperature, altitude, root surface area, nitrogen-fixing enzyme activity, organic matter, total soil nitrogen, MBN, and N%. Discussion: We concluded that mixed cropping is beneficial for BNF and that mixed cropping of legumes is a sustainable and effective forage management practice on the Tibetan Plateau.

Homeostatic measure of insulin resistance is associated with future asthma exacerbations: a 1-year prospective cohort study.

BACKGROUND AND AIMS: Recent evidence suggests that insulin resistance affects asthma outcomes; however, the effect of the homeostatic measure of insulin resistance (HOMA-IR) on airway inflammation and asthma exacerbations (AEs) is poorly understood. OBJECTIVES: To analyze the relationship between HOMA-IR and clinical and inflammatory characteristics in patients with asthma, and the association between HOMA-IR and asthma exacerbations (AEs) in the following year. METHODS: A prospective cohort study recruited participants with asthma, who were classified into the HOMA-IRhigh group and HOMA-IRlow group based on the cutoff value of 3.80 for HOMA-IR and were observed within 12 months. We evaluated the clinical and inflammatory features, and a 1-year follow-up was conducted to study the exacerbations. A negative binomial regression model was used to analyze the association between HOMA-IR and AEs. RESULTS: Compared with the patients in the HOMA-IRlow group (n = 564), patients in the HOMA-IRhigh group (n = 61) had higher levels of BMI, higher waist circumference and waist/hip ratio, higher triglycerides, lower cholesterol high-density lipoproteins (HDL), more neutrophils in the peripheral blood, and elevated IL-5 levels in the induced sputum. Furthermore, patients in the HOMA-IRhigh group had a significantly increased risk for moderate-to-severe AEs (adjusted incidence rate ratio (aIRR) = 2.26, 95% confidence interval (CI) = [1.38, 3.70]), severe AEs (aIRR = 2.42, 95% CI = [1.26, 4.67]), hospitalization(aIRR = 2.54, 95% CI = [1.20, 5.38]), and emergency visits (aIRR = 3.04, 95% CI = [1.80, 8.53]). CONCLUSION: HOMA-IR was associated with asthma-related clinical features, and airway inflammation, as well as being an independent risk factor for future AEs. Therefore, insulin resistance may have important implications for managing asthma as a potential treatable trait.

RNA m6A detection using raw current signals and basecalling errors from Nanopore direct RNA sequencing reads.

MOTIVATION: Nanopore direct RNA sequencing (DRS) enables the detection of RNA N6-methyladenosine (m6A) without extra laboratory techniques. A number of supervised or comparative approaches have been developed to identify m6A from Nanopore DRS reads. However, existing methods typically utilize either statistical features of the current signals or basecalling-error features, ignoring the richer information of the raw signals of DRS reads. RESULTS: Here, we propose RedNano, a deep-learning method designed to detect m6A from Nanopore DRS reads by utilizing both raw signals and basecalling errors. RedNano processes the raw-signal feature and basecalling-error feature through residual networks. We validated the effectiveness of RedNano using synthesized, Arabidopsis, and human DRS data. The results demonstrate that RedNano surpasses existing methods by achieving higher area under the ROC curve (AUC) and area under the precision-recall curve (AUPRs) in all three datasets. Furthermore, RedNano performs better in cross-species validation, demonstrating its robustness. Additionally, when detecting m6A from an independent dataset of Populus trichocarpa, RedNano achieves the highest AUC and AUPR, which are 3.8%-9.9% and 5.5%-13.8% higher than other methods, respectively. AVAILABILITY AND IMPLEMENTATION: The source code of RedNano is freely available at https://github.com/Derryxu/RedNano.

A bioinspired injectable antioxidant hydrogel for prevention of postoperative adhesion.

Postoperative adhesions, a prevalent complication following abdominal surgery, affect 90% of patients undergoing abdominal surgical procedures. Currently, the primary approach to prevent postoperative adhesions involves physical isolation of the surgical site and surrounding tissues using a hydrogel; however, this method represents a rudimentary strategy. Herein, considering the impact of oxidative stress and free radicals on postoperative adhesion during wound healing, an injectable antioxidant hydrogel, named PU-OHA-D, was successfully synthesized, which is formed by the crosslinking of dopamine-modified oxidized hyaluronic acid (OHA-D) and dihydrazide-terminated polyurethane (PU-ADH) through hydrazone bonding. PU-OHA-D hydrogel possesses versatile characteristics such as rapid gel formation, injectability, self-repair capability and biodegradability. Additionally, they exhibit an excellent ability to clear free radicals and superior tissue adhesion. PU-OHA-D can be injected in situ to form a hydrogel to prevent abdominal wall-cecum adhesion. Importantly, it can effectively eliminate free radicals and inhibit oxidative stress at the wound site. Thereby, it leads to collagen physiological degradation and prevents the occurrence of postoperative adhesions. The bioinspired hydrogel demonstrates its great potential in preventing postoperative adhesion and promoting wound healing.

Injectable thermogel constructed from self-assembled polyurethane micelle networks for 3D cell culture and wound treatment.

Injectable hydrogels have attracted significant interest in the biomedical field due to their minimal invasiveness and accommodation of intricate scenes. Herein, we developed an injectable polyurethane-based thermogel platform by modulating the hydrophilic-hydrophobic balance of the segmented components with pendant PEG. The thermogelling behavior is achieved by a combination of the bridging from the hydrophilic PEG and the percolated network from the hydrophobic micelle core. Firstly, the thermogelation mechanism of this system was demonstrated by both DPD simulation and experimental investigation. The gelling temperature could be modulated by varying the solid content, the component of soft segments, and the length of the pendant PEG. We further applied 3D printing technology to prepare personalized hydrogel structures. This integration highlights the adaptability of our thermogel for fabricating complex and patient-specific constructs, presenting a significant advance in the field of regenerative medicine and tissue engineering. Subsequently, in vitro cell experiments demonstrated that the thermogel had good cell compatibility and could promote the proliferation and migration of L929 cells. Impressively, A549 cells could be expediently in situ parceled in the thermogel for three-dimensional cultivation and gain lifeful 3D cell spheres after 7 days. Further, in vivo experiments demonstrated that the thermogel could promote wound healing with the regeneration of capillaries and hair follicles. Ultimately, our study demonstrates the potential of hydrogels to prepare personalized hydrogel structures via 3D printing technology, offering innovative solutions for complex biomedical applications. This work not only provides a fresh perspective for the design of injectable thermogels but also offers a promising avenue to develop thermoresponsive waterborne polyurethane for various medical applications.

Separation of Palladium by an Imine-Linked Cu(I)-Organic Framework.

Selective capture of palladium (Pd) is one of the important works in science due to its high application and low content in the Earth's crust. To this end, we present herein a new Cu(I)-organic framework (ECUT-MOF-1) by introducing pyridine N active sites to chelate Pd(II). ECUT-MOF-1 demonstrated that the maximal adsorption capacity of Pd(II) was 350 mg/g in pH = 3 solution. In addition, kinetic analysis, cycle performance, selectivity, and adsorption mechanisms were also investigated. All of the results suggested its superior application in the recovery of Pd(II).

Factors influencing fatigue, mental workload and burnout among Chinese health care workers during public emergencies: an online cross-sectional study.

OBJECTIVES: The purpose of this study was to investigate fatigue, mental workload, and burnout among health care workers (HCWs) and explore the possible underlying factors. MATERIALS AND METHODS: An online cross-sectional survey design was used to collect data from HCWs in Chongqing, China. The online survey included the Fatigue Severity Scale, NASA Task Load Index, and Chinese version of the Maslach Burnout Inventory-General Survey to assess fatigue, mental workload, and burnout, respectively, and was conducted from February 1 to March 1, 2023. RESULTS: In this study, the incidence of fatigue and burnout among HCWs was 76.40% and 89.14%, respectively, and the incidence of moderate to intolerable mental workloads was 90.26%. Work-family conflict, current symptoms, number of days of COVID-19 positivity, mental workload, burnout and reduced personal accomplishment were significantly associated with fatigue. Mental workload was affected by fatigue and reduced personal accomplishment. Furthermore, burnout was influenced by marital status and fatigue. Moreover, there was a correlation among mental workload, fatigue, and burnout. CONCLUSIONS: Fatigue, mental workload and burnout had a high incidence and were influenced by multiple factors during COVID-19 public emergencies in China.

Enhancement of solar blind full band absorption in photodetector with Ga2O3 nanopore and Al nanograting.

In this paper, we presented a novel double-layer light-trapping structure consisting of nanopores and nanograting positioned on both the surface and bottom of a gallium oxide-based solar-blind photodetector. Utilizing the finite element method (FEM), we thoroughly investigated the light absorption enhancement capabilities of this innovative design. The simulation results show that the double-layer nanostructure effectively combines the light absorption advantages of nanopores and nanogratings. Compared with thin film devices and devices with only nanopore or nanograting structures, double-layer nanostructured devices have a higher light absorption, achieving high light absorption in the solar blind area.

PM2.5 regulates the progression of lung adenocarcinoma through the axis of HCG18, miR-195 and ATG14.

Relevant studies have indicated the association of HCG18 with tumour occurrence and progression. In this study, we observed that PM2.5 can enhance the growth of lung adenocarcinoma cells by modulating the expression of HCG18. Further investigations, including overexpression and knockout experiments, elucidated that HCG18 suppresses miR-195, which in turn upregulates the expression of ATG14, resulting in the upregulation of autophagy. Consequently, exposure to PM2.5 leads to elevated HCG18 expression in lung tissues, which in turn increases Atg14 expression and activates autophagy pathways through inhibition of miR-195, thereby contributing to oncogenesis.

Efficacy of first-line dual oral pyrotinib plus capetabine therapy in HER2-positive metastatic breast cancer: A real-world retrospective study.

BACKGROUND: The combination of dual-targeted human epidermal growth factor receptor 2 (HER2) therapy and chemotherapy is the standard first-line regimen for recurrent/metastatic breast cancer (mBC). However, the toxicity of such combination therapy can lead to some patients being unable to tolerate adverse events or bear treatment costs. As a novel irreversible pan-ErbB receptor TKI (pyrotinib), can the dual oral administration of pyrotinib plus capetabine (PyroC) provide first-line survival benefits and serve as a more affordable treatment option? METHODS: This real-world retrospective study included patients diagnosed with HER2-positive mBC who received PyroC as a first-line treatment at West China Hospital between May 2018 and July 2023. The survival data and toxicity profiles were reported in this study. RESULTS: A total of 64 patients received PyroC as first-line therapy. The median progression-free survival (PFS) was 19.6 months (95% CI 15.0-27.2), while overall survival (OS) has not yet been reached. Kaplan-Meier analysis indicated that age (≥60, p = 0.03) and metastasis sites (p = 0.004) were related to poor efficacy of PyroC, while there was no relationship between effectiveness and menstrual status, hormone receptor (HR) status or previous treatment with anti-HER2 therapy. Furthermore, the objective response rate (ORR) and disease control rate (DCR) were 79.7% and 98.4%, respectively. Of the patients, 78.1% reported treatment-related adverse events (TRAEs). The predominant adverse events were diarrhea (n = 46, 71.9%) and hand-foot syndrome (n = 10, 15.6%). CONCLUSION: The dual oral administration regimen (PyroC) has a promising ORR or PFS in HER2-positive mBC patients, with an acceptable safety profile and convenience.

Controllable Synthesis of Transferable Ultrathin Bi2Ge(Si)O5 Dielectric Alloys with Composition-Tunable High-κ Properties.

Two-dimensional (2D) alloys hold great promise to serve as important components of 2D transistors, since their properties allow continuous regulation by varying their compositions. However, previous studies are mainly limited to the metallic/semiconducting ones as contact/channel materials, but very few are related to the insulating dielectrics. Here, we use a facile one-step chemical vapor deposition (CVD) method to synthesize ultrathin Bi2SixGe1-xO5 dielectric alloys, whose composition is tunable over the full range of x just by changing the relative ratios of the GeO2/SiO2 precursors. Moreover, their dielectric properties are highly composition-tunable, showing a record-high dielectric constant of >40 among CVD-grown 2D insulators. The vertically grown nature of Bi2GeO5 and Bi2SixGe1-xO5 enables polymer-free transfer and subsequent clean van der Waals integration as the high-κ encapsulation layer to enhance the mobility of 2D semiconductors. Besides, the MoS2 transistors using Bi2SixGe1-xO5 alloy as gate dielectrics exhibit a large Ion/Ioff (>108), ideal subthreshold swing of ∼61 mV/decade, and a small gate hysteresis (∼5 mV). Our work not only gives very few examples on controlled CVD growth of insulating dielectric alloys but also expands the family of 2D single-crystalline high-κ dielectrics.

Hydroxychloroquine-induced hyperpigmentation of the skin and bull's-eye maculopathy in rheumatic patients: a case report and literature review.

Hydroxychloroquine (HCQ) is used as a traditional disease-modifying antirheumatic drugs (DMARDs), for the treatment of autoimmune diseases such as rheumatoid arthritis (RA) and systemic lupus erythematosus (SLE). However, it can cause serious adverse reactions, including hyperpigmentation of the skin and bull's-eye macular lesions. Here, we present a case of HCQ-induced hyperpigmentation of the skin and bull's-eye macular lesions in a patient who received HCQ for RA. A 65-year-old female patient developed blurred vision and hyperpigmentation of multiple areas of skin over the body for one month after 3 years of HCQ treatment for RA. Based on clinical presentation, ophthalmological examination and dermatopathological biopsy, a diagnosis of drug-induced cutaneous hyperpigmentation and bullous maculopathy of the right eye was made. After discontinuation of HCQ and treatment with iguratimod tablets, the hyperpigmentation of the patient 's skin was gradually reduced, and the symptoms of blurred vision were not significantly improved. We also reviewed the available literature on HCQ-induced cutaneous hyperpigmentation and bull's-eye macular lesions and described the clinical features of HCQ-induced cutaneous hyperpigmentation and bull's-eye macular lesions. In conclusion, clinicians should be aware of early cutaneous symptoms and HCQ-associated ophthalmotoxicity in patients with rheumatic diseases on HCQ sulphate and should actively monitor patients, have them undergo regular ophthalmological examinations and give appropriate treatment to prevent exacerbation of symptoms.

Here, we report a thiazoyl covalent organic framework, namely ECUT-COF-29, for gold recovery. Under visible light irradiation, this material can reduce Au3+ to Au0 in a short time, and the adsorption capacity is as high as 3714 mg g-1, showing great potential in gold recovery.

Extraction of Uranium by a Pyrazole-Based Porous Organic Polymer.

In this work, we report a pyrazole-based porous organic polymer (namely, ECUT-POP-2) for extraction of uranium. ECUT-POP-2 affords a high uranium extraction capacity of up to 1851 mg/g, excellent selectivity, and good reusability, suggesting its superior application in treating uranium-containing wastewater and acquring nuclear fuel.

Soil microbial community are more sensitive to ecological regions than cropping systems in alpine annual grassland of the Qinghai-Tibet Plateau.

Introduction: Modern agriculture emphasizes the design of cropping systems using ecological function and production services to achieve sustainability. The functional characteristics of plants (grasses vs. legumes) affect changes in soil microbial communities that drive agroecosystem services. Information on the relationship between legume-grass mixtures and soil microorganisms in different ecological zones guides decision-making toward eco-friendly and sustainable forage production. However, it is still poorly understood how cropping patterns affect soil microbial diversity in alpine grasslands and whether this effect varies with altitude. Methods: To fill this gap in knowledge, we conducted a field study to investigate the effects of growing oats (Avena sativa L.), forage peas (Pisum sativum L.), common cornflower (Vicia sativa L.), and fava beans (Vicia faba L.) in monocultures and mixtures on the soil microbial communities in three ecological zones of the high alpine zone. Results: We found that the fungal and bacterial community structure differed among the cropping patterns, particularly the community structure of the legume mixed cropping pattern was very different from that of monocropped oats. In all ecological zones, mixed cropping significantly (p < 0.05) increased the α-diversity of the soil bacteria and fungi compared to oat monoculture. The α-diversity of the soil bacteria tended to increase with increasing elevation (MY [2,513 m] < HZ [2,661 m] < GN [3,203 m]), while the opposite was true for fungi (except for the Chao1 index in HZ, which was the lowest). Mixed cropping increased the abundance of soil fungi and bacteria across ecological zones, particularly the relative abundances of Nitrospira, Nitrososphaera, Phytophthora, and Acari. Factors affecting the bacterial community structure included the cropping pattern, the ecological zone, water content, nitrate-nitrogen, nitrate reductase, and soil capacity, whereas factors affecting fungal community structure included the cropping pattern, the ecological zone, water content, pH, microbial biomass nitrogen, and catalase. Discussion: Our study highlights the variation in soil microbial communities among different in alpine ecological regions and their resilience to cropping systems. Our results also underscore that mixed legume planting is a sustainable and effective forage management practice for the Tibetan Plateau.

De novo diploid genome assembly using long noisy reads.

The high sequencing error rate has impeded the application of long noisy reads for diploid genome assembly. Most existing assemblers failed to generate high-quality phased assemblies using long noisy reads. Here, we present PECAT, a Phased Error Correction and Assembly Tool, for reconstructing diploid genomes from long noisy reads. We design a haplotype-aware error correction method that can retain heterozygote alleles while correcting sequencing errors. We combine a corrected read SNP caller and a raw read SNP caller to further improve the identification of inconsistent overlaps in the string graph. We use a grouping method to assign reads to different haplotype groups. PECAT efficiently assembles diploid genomes using Nanopore R9, PacBio CLR or Nanopore R10 reads only. PECAT generates more contiguous haplotype-specific contigs compared to other assemblers. Especially, PECAT achieves nearly haplotype-resolved assembly on B. taurus (Bison×Simmental) using Nanopore R9 reads and phase block NG50 with 59.4/58.0 Mb for HG002 using Nanopore R10 reads.

Chemical Control of Fluorescence Lifetime towards Multiplexing Imaging.

Fluorescence lifetime imaging has been a powerful tool for biomedical research. Recently, fluorescence lifetime-based multiplexing imaging has expanded imaging channels by using probes that harbor the same spectral channels and distinct excited state lifetime. While it is desirable to control the excited state lifetime of any given fluorescent probes, the rational control of fluorescence lifetimes remains a challenge. Herein, we chose boron dipyrromethene (BODIPY) as a model system and provided chemical strategies to regulate the fluorescence lifetime of its derivatives with varying spectral features. We find electronegativity of structural substituents at the 8' and 5' positions is important to control the lifetime for the green-emitting and red-emitting BODIPY scaffolds. Mechanistically, such influences are exerted via the photo-induced electron transfer and the intramolecular charge transfer processes for the 8' and 5' positions of BODIPY, respectively. Based on these principles, we have generated a group of BODIPY probes that enable imaging experiments to separate multiple targets using fluorescence lifetime as a signal. In addition to BODIPY, we envision modulation of electronegativity of chemical substituents could serve as a feasible strategy to achieve rational control of fluorescence lifetime for a variety of small molecule fluorophores.

The crucial role of age and site in incidence and prognosis of female neuroendocrine neoplasms in the United States: a population-based study from 2000 to 2018.

BACKGROUND: As the incidence continues to rise, global concern about neuroendocrine neoplasms (NENs) is mounting. However, little is known about how NENs affect women patients. METHODS: The annual percentage change (APC) was calculated to describe the incidence. Cox proportional hazards multivariable regression was used to identify risk factors. The nomograms were employed to estimate prognosis. RESULTS: A total of 39,237 female NENs (fNENs) cases were identified. The incidence of fNENs increased annually (APC = 4.5, 95% CI 4.1-4.8, P < 0.05), and the incidence pattern and survival outcomes showed age and site-specificity. Appendiceal, rectal, and pulmonary fNENs were major contributors to the incidence of patients younger than 40, between 40-59, and over 60 years old, respectively. The Cox proportional hazards regression model revealed that age, tumor size, grade, stage, and primary sites were closely related to survival. The worst survival outcomes appeared in breast, reproductive system, and liver fNENs for patients under 40, between 40-49, and over 50 years old, respectively. A nomogram based on these developed with higher predictive accuracy of prognosis, with a C index of 0.906 in the training cohort and 0.901 in the validation cohort. CONCLUSIONS: Our findings revealed distinct site-specific tendencies in the incidence and survival patterns among fNEN patients across various age groups. Thus, reasonable patient screening and stratification strategies should be implemented, especially for young patients.

The Role of Reactive Oxygen Species in Alzheimer's Disease: From Mechanism to Biomaterials Therapy.

Alzheimer's disease (AD) is a chronic, insidious, and progressive neurodegenerative disease that remains a clinical challenge for society. The fully approved drug lecanemab exhibits the prospect of therapy against the pathological processes, while debatable adverse events conflict with the drug concentration required for the anticipated therapeutic effects. Reactive oxygen species (ROS) are involved in the pathological progression of AD, as has been demonstrated in much research regarding oxidative stress (OS). The contradiction between anticipated dosage and adverse event may be resolved through targeted transport by biomaterials and get therapeutic effects through pathological progression via regulation of ROS. Besides, biomaterials fix delivery issues by promoting the penetration of drugs across the blood-brain barrier (BBB), protecting the drug from peripheral degradation, and elevating bioavailability. The goal is to comprehensively understand the mechanisms of ROS in the progression of AD disease and the potential of ROS-related biomaterials in the treatment of AD. This review focuses on OS and its connection with AD and novel biomaterials in recent years against AD via OS to inspire novel biomaterial development. Revisiting these biomaterials and mechanisms associated with OS in AD via thorough investigations presents a considerable potential and bright future for improving effective interventions for AD.
