Most of the reported 2D Ruddlesden-Popper (RP) lead halide perovskites with the general formula of An +1 Bn X3 n +1 (n = 1, 2, …) comprise layered perovskites separated by A-site-substituted organic spacers. To date, only a small number of X-site-substituted RP perovskites have been reported. Herein, the first inorganic-cation pseudohalide 2D phase perovskite single crystal, Cs2 Pb(SCN)2 Br2 , is reported. It is synthesized by the antisolvent vapor-assisted crystallization (AVC) method at room temperature. It exhibits a standard single-layer (n = 1) Ruddlesden-Popper structure described in space group of Pmmn (#59) and has a small separation (d = 1.69 Å) between the perovskite layers. The SCN- anions are found to bend the 2D Pb(SCN)2 Br2 framework slightly into a kite-shaped octahedron, limiting the formation of a quasi-2D perovskite structure (n > 1). 17-DMAG solubility dmso This 2D single crystal exhibits a reversible first-order phase transformation to 3D CsPbBr3 (Pm3m #221) at 450 K. It has a low exciton binding energy of 160 meV-one of the lowest for 2D perovskites (n = 1). A Cs2 Pb(SCN)2 Br2 -single-crystal photodetector is demonstrated with respectable responsivity of 8.46 mA W-1 and detectivity of ≈1.2 × 1010 Jones at a low bias voltage of 0.5 V.Growth hormone (GH) exhibited the important biological activities in the mesenchymal stem cell (MSCs). However, the cellular behavior and properties of GH/GHR in MSCs remain unclear. A series of experiments (such as confocal laser scanning microscope [CLSM] and Western-blot) were performed to systematically investigate the cellular behavior of GH/GHR in MSCs, and the results showed that GH/GHR not only internalized into the cytoplasm, but also transported into the cell nuclei of MSCs. Furthermore, we studied the molecular mechanism by which GH/GHR internalized into cell, and the results indicated that clathrin plays more important role in the process of GHR internalization. More importantly, it can be found that nuclear-targeted GHR has the important biological functions in MSCs, which could promote MSCs proliferation. We further revealed the molecular mechanism by which nuclear-localized GHR regulates MSCs proliferation, and found that nuclear-targeted GHR enhanced the phosphorylation of STAT5, and the activated STAT5 initiates the transcription of CyclinD1, after which, the complex of CyclinD1 and CDK4 further phosphorylates Rb, and the activated Rb releases E2F1, the released E2F1 ultimately realizes the biological function of GH promoting cell proliferation. In short, in the current study,we used MSCs as a model to study the cellular behavior and properties of GH/GHR, and found that GH/GHR can internalize into cell cytoplasm and transport into the cell nuclei. Further work showed that nuclear GHR could drive cell proliferation via GHR/STAT5/CyclinD1 signaling pathway. The current research has laid an important foundation for further study on the regulatory effect of GH on MSCs.
To test whether there is a difference in professional and patient-reported outcome measures (PROM) after single-crown restoration supported by short implants (SI) (6mm) compared with standard length implants (SLI) (13mm) in conjunction with maxillary sinus floor augmentation (MSFA) after 1year of functional implant loading.
Forty patients were randomly allocated to SI or SLI/MSFA. PROM included Oral Health Impact Profile (OHIP-14) questionnaire and subjective assessment of the peri-implant soft tissue (A), implant crown (B), implant function (C) and overall implant treatment outcome (D) using visual analogue scale (VAS). Professional assessment included pink aesthetic score (PES) and white aesthetic score (WES).
No significant differences in professional or PROM between the two treatment modalities were revealed at any time point (p>.05). OHIP-14 score decreased at baseline and 1year after functional implant loading compared with preoperative measurements indicating improved quality of life with both treatment modalities. The 1-year mean VAS score was 9.4 (A), 9.3 (B), 9.6 (C) and 9.3 (D) for SI compared with 9.3 (A), 9.6 (B), 9.7 (C) and 9.2 (D) for SLI. The 1-year mean PES/WES scores were 11.3 and 8.1 for SI compared with 11.2 and 8.1 for SLI/MSFA.
Prosthetic rehabilitation of the posterior part of the maxilla with SI or SLI/MSFA revealed no significant differences in professional and PROM after 1year of implant loading.

To evaluate the antibiofilm and antibacterial effects of a new brushing solution concept, in a validated peri-implant biofilm model.
A multispecies in vitro biofilm model, including Streptococcus oralis, Actinomyces naeslundii, Veillonella parvula, Aggregatibacter actinomycetemcomitans, Porphyromonas gingivalis and Fusobacterium nucleatum, was used. To evaluate the antibiofilm capacity, titanium discs (Ti-SLA) were immersed in 1ml of the tested solution (one tablet dissolved in warm water) for 2min, prior and every 24h during a 3-day biofilm development. Negative (water) and positive (0.12% chlorhexidine/0.05% cetylpyridinium chloride mouth rinse) controls treated discs were run in parallel. To evaluate the antibacterial effects, planktonic cells and 72-h biofilms on sterile Ti-SLA discs were exposed (2min) to the mentioned treatments. Biofilm structure was analysed by confocal laser scanning microscopy (CLSM) and scanning electron microscopy (SEM). Bacterial load was measured by quantitative polymerase chain reaction and by culture in planktonic cells.
The tested product showed antibiofilm effects, impacting on the 48-h and 72-h biofilm thickness and significantly reducing viability of all bacterial species, except A. actinomycetemcomitans. Antibacterial effects were observed against the six bacterial species in planktonic state and in 72-h biofilms, especially for F. nucleatum and A. actinomycetemcomitans.
The tested brushing solution demonstrated antibacterial and antibiofilm properties, mainly against the peri-implant pathogens included in the validated in vitro biofilm model used.

The study was conducted with 33 taxi drivers. UFP and BC were measured inside their vehicles with DiSCmini® and microAeth® , respectively, on two typical working days pre- and post-lockdown. Job characteristics were self-reported. Our results showed that post-lockdown, both the number of clients and journey duration significantly decreased. Taxi drivers opened their windows significantly more and reduced the use of air recirculation. UFP decreased significantly by 32% and BC by 31% post-lockdown, with a weaker positive correlation compared to pre-lockdown. The reduction of in-vehicle UFP was due mainly to the reduction of traffic flow and ventilation settings, though the latter probably varied according to traffic conditions. The variation of in-vehicle BC also tended to be related to the decrease in traffic flow post-lockdown. We emphasize the role of traffic emissions on in-vehicle air pollution and that preventive measures such ventilation settings would help to minimize the exposure of professional drivers and passengers to air pollutants.
Stratification of breast lesions for appropriate management is achieved through an integration of clinical examination, imaging, and fine needle aspiration biopsy (FNAB). The current study aimed to evaluate the combined effectiveness of the widely used Breast Imaging-Reporting and Data System (BI-RADS) with the recently proposed International Academy of Cytology (IAC) Yokohama System for Reporting Breast Fine Needle Aspiration Biopsy Cytopathology.
A retrospective analysis was done on all breast FNABs from 2016 through 2020. The cases were categorised according to the IAC Yokohama System. Histopathological correlation of the BI-RADS and IAC Yokohama System was performed. The rate of malignancy (ROM) for each category of the BI-RADS and IAC Yokohama System was calculated.
The ROM values for categories I to V were 38%, 0.6%, 21.9%, 100%, and 97%, respectively. The sensitivity, specificity, positive predictive value (PPV), negative predictive value (NPV), and accuracy of FNAB with category III assumed as malignant were 98.9%, 85%, 76.1%, 99.3%, and 89.5%, respectively. With category III assumed as benign, these indices were 90.8%, 98.9%, 97.5%, 95.7%, and 96.2%, respectively. The sensitivity, specificity, PPV, NPV and accuracy of BI-RADS were 91.5%, 81.9%, 72%, 95%, and 85.1%, respectively.
FNAB is still an indispensable test in the evaluation of breast lesions. The utilisation of the IAC Yokohama reporting system for breast cytology in conjunction with ACR BI-RADS aids in better stratification of lesions.

Herein, a facile strategy has been employed to successfully synthesize the porous Cox P hierarchical nanostructures supported on flexible carbon fiber cloth (Cox P@CFC), constructing a robust architecture of ordered nanoarrays. Via such a unique design, porous and bare structures can thoroughly expose electroactive surfaces to electrolyte, which is favorable for ultra-fast sodium ions storage. In addition, the carbon fiber cloth (CFC) provides an interconnected 3D conductive network to ensure firm electrical connection of the electrode materials. Besides inherent flexibility of CFC, the integration of hierarchical structures of Cox P with CFC as well as the strong synergistic effect between them do effectively help buffer the mechanical stress caused by repeated sodiation/desodiation, thereby guaranteeing the structure integrity of the overall electrode. Consequently, Cox P@CFC as anode has shown a record high capacity of 279 mAh/g at 5.0 A/g with almost no capacity attenuation after 9000 cycles. This article is protected by copyright.

Specifically, we investigated their implication in the conversion of adsorbed nitrate anions into gaseous nitrous acid (HONO) and nitrogen oxides (NOx ), as well as the related VOC emissions under different indoor conditions, using a high-resolution proton transfer reaction-time of flight-mass spectrometer (PTR-TOF-MS) and a long path absorption photometer (LOPAP). The different mold preparations were characterized by the means of direct injection into an Orbitrap high-resolution mass spectrometer with a heated electrospray ionization (ESI-Orbitrap-MS). The formation of a wide range of VOCs, having emission profiles sensitive to the types of films (either doped by potassium nitrate or not), cultivation time, UV-light irradiation, potassium nitrate concentration and relative humidity was observed. The formation of nitrous acid from these films was also determined and found to be dependent on light and relative humidity.
