High-Entropy Materials in Electrocatalysis: Understanding, Design, and Development.

Electrocatalysis is a crucial method for achieving global carbon neutrality, serving as an essential means of energy conversion, and electrocatalyst is crucial in the process of electrocatalysis. Because of the abundant active sites, the multi-component synergistic effect of high-entropy materials has a wide application prospect in the field of electrocatalysis. Moreover, due to the special structure of high-entropy materials, it is possible to obtain almost continuous adsorption energy distribution by regulating the composition, which has attracted extensive attention of researchers. This paper reviews the properties and types of high-entropy materials, including alloys and compounds. The synthesis strategies of high-entropy materials are systematically introduced, and the solid phase synthesis, liquid-phase synthesis, and gas-phase synthesis are classified and summarized. The application of high-entropy materials in electrocatalysis is summarized, and the promotion effect of high-entropy strategy in various catalytic reaction processes is summarized. Finally, the current progress of high-entropy materials, the problems encountered, and the future development direction are reviewed. It is emphasized that the strategy of high flux density functional theory calculation guiding high-entropy catalyst design will be of great significance to electrocatalysis.

MARK2 phosphorylates KIF13A at a 14-3-3 binding site to polarize vesicular transport of transferrin receptor within dendrites.

Neurons regulate the microtubule-based transport of certain vesicles selectively into axons or dendrites to ensure proper polarization of function. The mechanism of this polarized vesicle transport is still not fully elucidated, though it is known to involve kinesins, which drive anterograde transport on microtubules. Here, we explore how the kinesin-3 family member KIF13A is regulated such that vesicles containing transferrin receptor (TfR) travel only to dendrites. In experiments involving live-cell imaging, knockout of KIF13A, BioID assay, we found that the kinase MARK2 phosphorylates KIF13A at a 14-3-3 binding motif, strengthening interaction of KIF13A with 14-3-3 such that it dissociates from TfR-containing vesicles, which therefore cannot enter axons. Overexpression of KIF13A or knockout of MARK2 leads to axonal transport of TfR-containing vesicles. These results suggest a unique kinesin-based mechanism for polarized transport of vesicles to dendrites.

Efficacy and safety of Qushi Huayu, a traditional Chinese medicine, in patients with nonalcoholic fatty liver disease in a randomized controlled trial.

BACKGROUND: The effective treatment of non-alcoholic fatty liver disease (NAFLD) is an unmet medical need. Qushi Huayu (QSHY) is an empirical herbal formula with promising effects in NAFLD rodent models and a connection to gut microbiota regulation. HYPOTHESIS/PURPOSE: This study aimed to evaluate the effects of QSHY in patients with NAFLD through a multicenter, randomized, double-blind, double-dummy clinical trial. STUDY DESIGN: A total of 246 eligible patients with NAFLD and liver dysfunction were evenly divided to receive either QSHY and Dangfei Liganning capsule (DFLG) simulant or QSHY simulant and DFLG (an approved proprietary Chinese medicine for NAFLD in China) for 24 weeks. The primary outcomes were changes in liver fat content, assessed using vibration-controlled transient elastography, and serum alanine aminotransferase (ALT) levels from baseline to Week 24. RESULTS: Both QSHY and DFLG led to reductions in liver fat content and liver enzyme levels post-intervention (p < 0.05). Compared to DFLG, QSHY treatment improved ALT (ß, -0.128 [95 % CI, -0.25, -0.005], p = 0.041), aspartate transaminase (ß, -0.134 [95 % CI, -0.256 to -0.012], p = 0.032), and fibrosis-4 score (ß, -0.129 [95 % CI, -0.254 to -0.003], p = 0.044) levels. QSHY markedly improved gut dysbiosis compared to DFLG, with changes in Escherichia-Shigella and Bacteroides abundance linked to its therapeutic effect on reducing ALT. Patients with a high ALT response after QSHY treatment showed superior reductions in peripheral levels of phenylalanine and tyrosine, along with an elevation in the related microbial metabolite p-Hydroxyphenylacetic acid. CONCLUSION: Our results demonstrate favorable clinical potential for QSHY in the treatment of NAFLD.

Oxidative Cascade Iodocyclization of 1,n-Dienes: Synthesis of Iodinated Benzo[b]azepine and Benzo[b]azocine Derivatives.

An oxidative cascade iodocyclization of 1,7- or 1,8-dienes has been realized under mild conditions. By employing I2 as an iodine source, this protocol provides a concise and efficient approach to a great deal of biologically significant iodinated benzo[b]azepine and benzo[b]azocine derivatives in moderate to good yields. The gram-scale synthesis and further transformation of products render the approach practical and attractive. Radical trapping and deuterium-labeling experiments help to understand the mechanism.

Catalytic activation of persulfate by nanoscale zero-valent iron-derived supported boron-doped porous carbon for bisphenol A degradation.

In this study, boron-doped porous carbon materials (BCs) with high surface areas were synthesized employing coffee grounds as carbon source and sodium bicarbonate and boric acid as precursors; afterward, nanoscale zero-valent iron (nZVI) and BCs composites (denoted as nZVI@BCs) were further prepared through reduction of FeSO4 by NaBH4 along with stirring. The performance of the nZVI@BCs for activating persulfate (PS) was evaluated for the degradation of bisphenol A (BPA). In comparison with nZVI@Cs/PS, nZVI@BCs/PS could greatly promote the degradation and mineralization of BPA via both radical and non-radical pathways. On the one hand, electron spin resonance and radical quenching studies represented that •OH, SO4•-, and O2•- were mainly produced in the nZVI@BCs/PS system for BPA degradation. On the other hand, the open circuit voltages of nZVI@BCs and nZVI@Cs in different systems indicated that non-radical pathway still existed in our system. PS could grab the unstable unpaired electron on nZVI@BCs to form a carbon material surface-confined complex ([nZVI@BCs]*) with a high redox potential, then accelerate BPA removal efficiency via direct electron transfer. Furthermore, the performances and mechanisms for BPA degradation were examined by PS activation with nZVI@BC composites at various conditions including dosages of nZVI@BCs, BPA and PS, initially pH value, temperature, common anions, and humid acid. Therefore, this study provides a novel insight for development of high-performance carbon catalysts toward environmental remediation.

Anion doping and interfacial effects in B-Ni5P4/Ni2P for promoting urea-assisted hydrogen production in alkaline media.

A bifunctional catalyst used for urea oxidation-assisted hydrogen production can efficiently catalyze the urea oxidation reaction (UOR) and hydrogen evolution reaction (HER) simultaneously, thus simplifying electrolytic cell installation and reducing the cost. Constructing the heterointerface of two components or species and doping heteroatom are effective strategies to improve the performance of electrocatalysts, which could regulate the local electronic structure of the catalysts at their interface region, adjust their orbital overlap, and achieve enhanced catalytic performance. In this study, a simple hydrothermal method was studied for the preparation of B-doped Ni5P4/Ni2P heterostructures on nickel foam (B-Ni5P4/Ni2P@NF). Under 1 M KOH at a current density of 10 mA cm-2, an overpotential of 76 mV was obtained for the HER. When 0.3 M urea was added to 1 M KOH, the performance of the prepared catalyst was greatly improved. When the current density reached 10 mA cm-2, the potential was only 1.35 V. In addition, urea-assisted overall water splitting voltage was only 1.41 V. Thus, the B-Ni5P4/Ni2P catalyst possess excellent electrocatalytic activity. The main reason for the excellent properties of the electrocatalyst is the construction of heterostructure, which regulates the electronic structure of the catalyst at its interface and generates a new efficient active site. In addition, the doping of B atoms further promotes the charge transfer rate, thus strengthening the interaction between two phases and improving the catalytic performance. This study provides a simple, environmentally friendly, and rapid design method to prepare an active bi-functional electrocatalyst that has a positive effect on urea-assisted overall water splitting.

MARK2 phosphorylates KIF13A at a 14-3-3 binding site to polarize vesicular transport of transferrin receptor within dendrites.

Neurons regulate the microtubule-based transport of certain vesicles selectively into axons or dendrites to ensure proper polarization of function. The mechanism of this polarized vesicle transport is still not fully elucidated, though it is known to involve kinesins, which drive anterograde transport on microtubules. Here we explore how the kinesin-3 family member KIF13A is regulated such that vesicles containing transferrin receptor (TfR) travel only to dendrites. In experiments involving live-cell imaging, knockout of KIF13A, BioID assay, we found that the kinase MARK2 phosphorylates KIF13A at a 14-3-3 binding motif, strengthening interaction of KIF13A with 14-3-3 such that it dissociates from TfR-containing vesicles, which therefore cannot enter axons. Overexpression of KIF13A or knockout of MARK2 leads to axonal transport of TfR-containing vesicles. These results suggest a novel kinesin-based mechanism for polarized transport of vesicles to dendrites. Significance: Our findings suggest that at least one type of vesicles, those containing transferrin receptor, travel exclusively to dendrites and are excluded from axons because the kinase MARK2 phosphorylates the kinesin KIF13A to promote its separation from vesicles at the proximal axon, preventing vesicle transport into axons, such that they travel only to dendrites. Future studies should explore how this mechanism of polarized vesicle transport supports neuronal function.

Transcription factor CncC regulates the expression of antennal CYP6MU1 gene responsible for trans-2-hexen-1-al and nonanal recognition in Locusta migratoria.

Cytochrome P450 monooxygenases (P450s) are a superfamily of multifunctional heme-containing proteins and could function as odorant-degrading enzymes (ODEs) in insect olfactory systems. In our previous study, we identified a P450 gene from the antennal transcriptome of Locusta migratoria, LmCYP6MU1, which could be induced by a variety of volatiles. However, the regulatory mechanisms of this gene in response to volatiles remain unknown. In current study, we investigated the tissues and development stages expression patterns of LmCYP6MU1 and determined its olfactory function in the recognition of the main host plant volatiles which induced LmCYP6MU1 expression. The results showed that LmCYP6MU1 was antenna-rich and highly expressed throughout the antennal developmental stages of locusts. LmCYP6MU1 played important roles in the recognition of trans-2-hexen-1-al and nonanal. Insect CncC regulates the expression of P450 genes. We tested whether LmCncC regulates LmCYP6MU1 expression. It was found that LmCncC knockdown in the antennae resulted in the downregulation of LmCYP6MU1 and repressed the volatiles-mediated induction of LmCYP6MU1. LmCncC knockdown reduced the electroantennogram (EAG) and behavioral responses of locusts to volatiles. These results suggested that LmCncC could regulate the basal and volatiles-mediated inducible expression of LmCYP6MU1 responsible for the recognition of trans-2-hexen-1-al and nonanal. These findings provide an original basis for understanding the regulation mechanisms of LmCncC on LmCYP6MU1 expression and help us better understand the LmCncC-mediated olfactory plasticity.

Molecular dynamics simulation of the transmembrane transport process of reactive species under the synergistic effect of plasma oxidation and an electric field.

Cold atmospheric pressure plasma (CAP)-assisted cancer therapy has become a popular topic in plasma biomedical research. Membrane lipid oxidation and local electric fields are two important factors in plasma-cell interactions, and the study of their synergistic effect is highly significant for optimizing the regulatory mechanism of the plasma-induced apoptosis of cancer cells. In this paper, a model of oxidized phospholipids was established, and the transmembrane process of reactive species was simulated by the classical molecular dynamics (MD) method under the conditions of oxidation and an electric field. The results showed that hydrophilic reactive oxygen species could not penetrate the membrane lipids through oxidation. The formation of electroporation provided a new channel for reactive species to penetrate the membrane, and the oxidation effect reduced the electric field threshold of membrane electroporation. Our simulation could provide theoretical support for the plasma-induced apoptosis of cancer cells at the microscopic level, provide mechanistic guidance for the practical application of plasma-induced cancer therapy, and promote the development of CAP in the field of cancer therapy.

Blocked Autophagy is Involved in Layered Double Hydroxide-Induced Repolarization and Immune Activation in Tumor-Associated Macrophages.

Tumor-associated macrophages (TAMs) are important immune cells in the tumor microenvironment (TME). The polar plasticity of TAMs makes them important targets for improving the immunosuppressive microenvironment of tumors. The previous study reveals that layered double hydroxides (LDHs) can effectively promote the polarization of TAMs from the anti-inflammatory M2 type to the pro-inflammatory M1 type. However, their mechanisms of action remain unexplored. This study reveals that LDHs composed of different cations exhibit distinct abilities to regulate the polarity of TAMs. Compared to Mg-Fe LDH, Mg-Al LDH has a stronger ability to promote the repolarization of TAMs from M2 to M1 and inhibit the formation of myeloid-derived suppressor cells (MDSCs). In addition, Mg-Al LDH restrains the growth of tumors in vivo and promotes the infiltration of activated immune cells into the TME more effectively. Interestingly, Mg-Al LDH influences the autophagy of TAMs; this negatively correlates with the pro-inflammatory ability of TAMs. Therefore, LDHs exert their polarization ability by inhibiting the autophagy of TAMs, and this mechanism might be related to the ionic composition of LDHs. This study lays the foundation for optimizing the performance of LDH-based immune adjuvants, which display excellent application prospects for tumor immunotherapy.

Visible-Light-Promoted Selective Sulfonylation and Selenylation of Dienes to Access Sulfonyl-/Seleno-benzazepine Derivatives.

A novel visible-light-promoted selective sulfonylation and selenylation of dienes with selenosulfonates has been developed. This technology provides mild access to a wide range of sulfonyl benzo[b]azepinones and seleno-benzo[b]azepines. Preliminary mechanistic studies suggest that the sulfonylation involves a sulfonyl radical engaged cascade process, and the selenylation is accomplished through a sequential oxidation/electrophilic cyclization process. The large-scale operation and late-stage modification experiment reveal the promising utility of this protocol.

Dual Atoms (Fe, F) Co-Doping Inducing Electronic Structure Modulation of NiO Hollow Flower-Spheres for Enhanced Oxygen Evolution/Sulfion Oxidation Reaction Performance.

Heteroatoms Fe, F co-doped NiO hollow spheres (Fe, F-NiO) are designed, which simultaneously integrate promoted thermodynamics by electronic structure modulation with boosted reaction kinetics by nano-architectonics. Benefiting from the electronic structure co-regulation of Ni sites by introducing Fe and F atoms in NiO , as the rate-determined step (RDS), the Gibbs free energy of OH* intermediates (ΔGOH* ) for Fe, F-NiO catalyst is significantly decreased to 1.87 eV for oxygen evolution reaction (OER) compared with pristine NiO (2.23 eV), which reduces the energy barrier and improves the reaction activity. Besides, densities of states (DOS) result verifies the bandgap of Fe, F-NiO(100) is significantly decreased compared with pristine NiO(100), which is beneficial to promote electrons transfer efficiency in electrochemical system. Profiting by the synergistic effect, the Fe, F-NiO hollow spheres only require the overpotential of 215 mV for OER at 10 mA cm-2 and extraordinary durability under alkaline condition. The assembled Fe, F-NiO||Fe-Ni2 P system only needs 1.51 V to reach 10 mA cm-2 , also exhibits outstanding electrocatalytic durability for continuous operation. More importantly, replacing the sluggish OER by advanced sulfion oxidation reaction (SOR) not only can realize the energy saving H2 production and toxic substances degradation, but also bring additional economic benefits.

Changes in the Microbiota and their Roles in Patients with Type 2 Diabetes Mellitus.

An association between type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM) and gut microbiota is well established, but the results of related studies are inconsistent. The purpose of this investigation is to elucidate the characteristics of the gut microbiota in T2DM and non-diabetic subjects. Forty-five subjects were recruited for this study, including 29 T2DM patients and 16 non-diabetic subjects. Biochemical parameters, including body mass index (BMI), fasting plasma glucose (FPG), serum total cholesterol (TC), triglycerides (TG), high-density lipoprotein (HDL), and hemoglobin A1c (HbA1c), were analyzed and correlated with the gut microbiota. Bacterial community composition and diversity were detected in fecal samples using direct smear, sequencing, and real-time polymerase chain reaction (PCR). In this study, it was observed that indicators such as BMI, FPG, HbA1c, TC, and TG in T2DM patients were on the rise, concurrent with dysbiosis of the microbiota. We observed an increase in Enterococci and a decrease in Bacteroides, Bifidobacteria, and Lactobacilli in patients with T2DM. Meanwhile, total short-chain fatty acids (SCFAs) and D-lactate concentrations were decreased in the T2DM group. In addition, FPG was positively correlated with Enterococcus and negatively correlated with Bifidobacteria, Bacteroides, and Lactobacilli. This study reveals that microbiota dysbiosis is associated with disease severity in patients with T2DM. The limitation of this study is that only common bacteria were noted in this study, and more in-depth related studies are urgently needed.

Effects of Fe2+ addition to sugarcane molasses on poly-γ-glutamic acid production in Bacillus licheniformis CGMCC NO. 23967.

BACKGROUND: Poly-γ-glutamic acid (γ-PGA) is biodegradable, water-soluble, environment-friendly, and edible. Consequently, it has a variety of industrial applications. It is crucial to control production cost and increase output for industrial production γ-PGA. RESULTS: Here γ-PGA production from sugarcane molasses by Bacillus licheniformis CGMCC NO. 23967 was studied in shake-flasks and bioreactors, the results indicate that the yield of γ-PGA could reach 40.668 g/L in a 5L stirred tank fermenter. Further study found that γ-PGA production reached 70.436 g/L, γ-PGA production and cell growth increased by 73.20% and 55.44%, respectively, after FeSO4·7H2O was added. Therefore, we investigated the metabolomic and transcriptomic changes following FeSO4·7H2O addition. This addition resulted in increased abundance of intracellular metabolites, including amino acids, organic acids, and key TCA cycle intermediates, as well as upregulation of the glycolysis pathway and TCA cycle. CONCLUSIONS: These results compare favorably with those obtained from glucose and other forms of biomass feedstock, confirming that sugarcane molasses can be used as an economical substrate without any pretreatment. The addition of FeSO4·7H2O to sugarcane molasses may increase the efficiency of γ-PGA production in intracellular.

A mitochondria-anchored supramolecular photosensitizer as a pyroptosis inducer for potent photodynamic therapy and enhanced antitumor immunity.

BACKGROUND: The discovery of a potent photosensitizer with desirable immunogenic cell death (ICD) ability can prominently enhance antitumor immunity in photodynamic therapy (PDT). However, majority of commercially-available photosensitizers suffer from serious aggregation and fail to elicit sufficient ICD. Pyroptosis as a newly identified pattern for potent ICD generation is rarely disclosed in reported photosensitizers. In addition, the photosensitizer with excellent mitochondria-anchored ability evokes prominent mitochondria oxidative stress, and consequently induces ICD. RESULTS: Herein, a novel supramolecular photosensitizer LDH@ZnPc is reported, without complicated preparation, but reveals desirable pyroptosis-triggered ability with mitochondria anchoring feature. LDH@ZnPc is obtained through isolation of ZnPc using positive charged layered double hydroxides (LDH), and excellent mitochondria-anchored ability is achieved. More importantly, LDH@ZnPc-mediated PDT can effectively initiate gasdermin D (GSDMD)-dependent pyroptosis of tumor cells. In vitro and in vivo results verify robust ICD ability and potent tumor inhibition efficacy, and antitumor immunity towards distant tumor inhibition. CONCLUSIONS: This study reveals that LDH@ZnPc can act as an excellent pyroptosis inducer with simultaneous mitochondria anchoring ability for enhancing photodynamic therapy and boosting antitumor immunity.

Discrete scale invariance of the quasi-bound states at atomic vacancies in a topological material.

Recently, log-periodic quantum oscillations have been detected in the topological materials zirconium pentatelluride (ZrTe5) and hafnium pentatelluride (HfTe5), displaying an intriguing discrete scale invariance (DSI) characteristic. In condensed materials, the DSI is considered to be related to the quasi-bound states formed by massless Dirac fermions with strong Coulomb attraction, offering a feasible platform to study the long-pursued atomic-collapse phenomenon. Here, we demonstrate that a variety of atomic vacancies in the topological material HfTe5 can host the geometric quasi-bound states with a DSI feature, resembling an artificial supercritical atom collapse. The density of states of these quasi-bound states is enhanced, and the quasi-bound states are spatially distributed in the "orbitals" surrounding the vacancy sites, which are detected and visualized by low-temperature scanning tunneling microscope/spectroscopy. By applying the perpendicular magnetic fields, the quasi-bound states at lower energies become wider and eventually invisible; meanwhile, the energies of quasi-bound states move gradually toward the Fermi energy (EF). These features are consistent with the theoretical prediction of a magnetic field-induced transition from supercritical to subcritical states. The direct observation of geometric quasi-bound states sheds light on the deep understanding of the DSI in quantum materials.

The energy and time saving coordinated control methods of CO2, VOCs, and PM2.5 in office buildings.

Indoor air pollution is complex and serious. In fact, an on-site investigation of an office building revealed that the concentration of three typical pollutants (CO2, VOCs, PM2.5) exceeded the Chinese standard. To identify a better control method to achieve good indoor air quality, an orthogonal experiment was carried out in an environmental chamber to compare the control time and energy consumption of four control methods (purifier+ and window+, purifier+ and window-, purified fresh air 240 m3/h and purified fresh air 400 m3/h) to meet the standard established for pollutants. The purifier+ and window+ method was found to be more effective in most conditions, with a control time reduced by 8.06% and energy consumption reduced by 11.91% compared with the traditional control method of purified fresh air 240 m3/h. This research highlights the optimal control strategy for the air quality in office buildings under different pollution conditions.

Semiclassical propagation of coherent states and wave packets: Hidden saddles.

Semiclassical methods are extremely important in the subjects of wave-packet and coherent-state dynamics. Unfortunately, these essentially saddle-point approximations are considered nearly impossible to carry out in detail for systems with multiple degrees of freedom due to the difficulties of solving the resulting two-point boundary-value problems. However, recent developments have extended the applicability to a broader range of systems and circumstances. The most important advances are first to generate a set of real reference trajectories using appropriately reduced dimensional spaces of initial conditions, and second to feed that set into a Newton-Raphson search scheme to locate the exposed complex saddle trajectories. The arguments for this approach were based mostly on intuition and numerical verification. In this paper, the methods are put on a firmer theoretical foundation and then extended to incorporate saddles hidden from Newton-Raphson searches initiated with real trajectories. This hidden class of saddles is relevant to tunneling-type processes, but a hidden saddle can sometimes contribute just as much as or more than an exposed one. The distinctions between hidden and exposed saddles clarifies the interpretation of what constitutes tunneling for wave packets and coherent states in the time domain.

Corrected Maslov index for complex saddle trajectories.

Saddle-point approximations, extremely important in a wide variety of physical contexts, require the analytical continuation of canonically conjugate quantities to complex variables in quantum mechanics. An important component of this approximation's implementation is arriving at the phase correction attributable to caustics, which involves determinantal prefactors. The common prescription of using the inverse of half a certain determinant's total accumulated phase sometimes leads to sign errors. The root of this problem is traced to the zeros of the determinants at complex times crossing the real time axis. Deformed complex time contours around the zeros can repair the sign errors that sometimes occur, but a much more practical way is given that links saddles back to associated real trajectories and avoids the necessity of locating the complex time zeros of the determinants.

Efficacy and safety of single-dose antiviral drugs for influenza treatment: A systematic review and network meta-analysis.

To conduct network meta-analysis (NMA) of clinical efficacy and safety of single-dose antiviral drugs, grouped by dosage, in treatment of influenza. Systematic retrievals were conducted in databases, including Pubmed, Embase, Web of Science, the Cochrane Register of Clinical Trials and from the website ClinicalTrials.gov, for clinical trials recorded between the interception of the databases and March 31, 2021. Randomized controlled trials (RCTs) of influenza treatment in which single-dose antiviral drugs were administered were selected according to preset inclusion and exclusion criteria by two researchers who screened the literature independently from each other. The quality of the included studies was assessed using the Cochrane bias risk assessment tool. Software such as Stata 16.0 and Review Manager 5.3 was adopted for statistical analysis. Pairwise meta-analysis and NMA were carried out under the random-effects model. For both binary and continuous variables, odds ratio (OR), mean difference (MD) and their 95% confidence intervals (CI) were used to rank treatment efficiencies and analyze the differences. A total of 12 RCTs involving 7296 participants were included in the analysis. According to the NMA results, peramivir 300 mg (MD = -17.68, 95% CI: [-34.05, -1.32]), peramivir 600 mg (MD = -16.15, 95% CI: [-29.35, -2.95]), baloxavir (MD = -14.67, 95% CI: [-26.75, -2.58]) and laninamivir 40 mg (MD = -12.42, 95% CI: [-22.53, -2.31]) remarkably outperformed laninamivir 20 mg in time to alleviation of symptoms (TTAS). However, no intervention statistically outperform others in antipyretic time, virus titer variations against the baseline 24 and 48 h after medication and adverse events (AEs). The efficacy rankings were: peramivir 300 mg (the surface under the cumulative ranking curve [SUCRA] = 80.3%) > peramivir 600 mg (SUCRA = 76.2%) > baloxavir (SUCRA = 68.4%) > laninamivir 40 mg (SUCRA = 55.0%) > laninamivir 20 mg (SUCRA = 16.6%) for TTAS; baloxavir (SUCRA = 76.3%) > peramivir 600 mg (SUCRA = 67.8%) > laninamivir 40 mg (SUCRA = 47.2%) > laninamivir 20 mg (SUCRA = 40.0%) for antipyretic time; baloxavir (SUCRA = 96.7%) > peramivir 300 mg (SUCRA = 64.5%) ≈ peramivir 600 mg (SUCRA = 63.2%), baloxavir (SUCRA = 93.2%) > peramivir 600 mg (SUCRA = 64.0%) ≈ peramivir 300 mg (SUCRA = 55.0%), for virus titer variations against the baseline 24 and 48 h after medication, respectively; and baloxavir (SUCRA = 83.4%) > peramivir 300 mg (SUCRA = 71.4%) > laninamivir 20 mg (SUCRA = 62.4%) > peramivir 600 mg (SUCRA = 56.2%) > laninamivir 40 mg (SUCRA = 36.8%) for adverse events. Among the single-dose anti-influenza virus drugs compared, peramivir is superior to baloxavir and laninamivir in TTAS, whereas baloxavir has the best efficacy in antipyretic time, virus titer variations against the baseline 24 and 48 h after medication and AEs. This study has been registered in the International Prospective Register of Systematic Reviews (PROSPERO), with a registration number of CRD42021238220.
