Experimental and simulation investigations of combustion and explosion properties of isopropyl nitrate at different concentrations
To reveal the explosion hazard properties and combustion mechanism of isopropyl nitrate (IPN), a 20 L spherical explosion device was used to conduct macroscopic explosion property tests, and ReaxFF MD simulations were employed to analyze the microscopic reaction mechanisms.
Explosion Properties and Mechanism of Composite Liquid Fuel with Propylene Oxide and Isopropyl Nitrate
ABSTRACT The widely utilized propylene oxide (PO) / isopropyl nitrate (IPN) composite liquid fuels exhibit highly flammable and explosive properties at ambient temperatures, posing significant hazards. Herein, we investigate the combustion and explosion behaviors of PO/IPN at confined and venting conditions to estimate its risks in industrial applications.
Living growth of ultra-bright 2D perovskites with long-lived carriers
Abstract Growth-induced defects and strain in two-dimensional (2D) perovskites severely limit carrier transport and suppress radiative efficiency, thereby sacrificing the carrier lifetime and obscuring the advantages from quantum confinement. Here, we report a near-equilibrium isothermal (NEIT) growth paradigm of 2D perovskite single crystals that exhibits living growth characteristics analogous to living polymerization.
Coherent 2D–3D van der Waals perovskite epitaxial heterostructures
Abstract Precise control and a clear understanding of the interfaces between 2D and 3D perovskites remain limited by structural disorder, interfacial defects and poorly defined growth pathways. Here we report a strategy for coherent van der Waals cross-dimensional epitaxy, in which 3D MASnI3 (MA: methylammonium) single crystals are grown directly on 2D (3T)2SnI4 (3T: tri-thiophenylethylammonium) templates.

Uncovering Multiple Paths to Urban Digital Business Excellence: A Socio-Technical Analysis of Equifinal and Asymmetrical Causal Pathways
Conventional research on digital business development offers a limited view, overwhelmingly concerned with the isolated effects of individual variables while overlooking their synergistic relationships. This study challenges this reductive perspective by applying fuzzy set Qualitative Comparative Analysis (fsQCA) to Chinese city-level data. We specifically investigate how elements from the socio-technical framework interact synergistically to shape the urban digital business ecosystem.

The Biliary Stenting Strategy for the Unresectable Hilar Type of Intrahepatic Cholangiocarcinoma: A Single‐Center Experience
Objectives Hilar-type intrahepatic cholangiocarcinoma (H-ICC), which originates from the large bile ducts, tends to invade the hepatic hilus and results in malignant hilar biliary obstruction (MHBO). Compared with hilar cholangiocarcinoma (HC), H-ICC exhibits a more aggressive biological behavior and a dismal prognosis. We aimed to investigate the optimal biliary stenting strategy for the treatment of unresectable H-ICC.

A basally active cGAS-STING pathway limits SARS-CoV-2 replication in a subset of ACE2 positive airway cell models - Nature Communications
Abstract Host factors that define the cellular tropism of SARS-CoV-2 beyond the cognate ACE2 receptor are poorly defined. Here we report that SARS-CoV-2 replication is restricted at a post-entry step in a number of ACE2-positive airway-derived cell lines due to tonic activation of the cGAS-STING pathway mediated by mitochondrial DNA leakage and naturally occurring cGAS and STING variants.

The Comparison of Therapeutic Efficacy Between Dabigatran Versus Warfarin in Patients With Nonvalvular Atrial Fibrillation - Hongxia Li, Lei Zhang, Ming Xia, Chi Zhang, Tingbo Jiang, 2021
Introduction Atrial fibrillation (AF) is a major reason for stroke in the world.1 The incidence of stroke in patients with AF is five times over that of patients without AF.2 Oral anticoagulants, such as warfarin and dabigatran etexilate, could reduce the occurrence of stroke in AF patients. Warfarin targets not only procoagulants including factor VII, factor IX, factor X, and prothrombin but also anticoagulants including protein C and protein S.

Changes in HIV Preexposure Prophylaxis Awareness and Use Among Men Who Have Sex with Men — 20 Urban Areas, 2014 and 2017
Discussion From 2014 to 2017, PrEP awareness among MSM in this analysis increased by 50%. More importantly, in 2017, >80% of MSM in all racial and ethnic groups and in 17 of the 20 urban areas were aware of PrEP. This finding is encouraging and suggests that efforts designed to increase PrEP awareness among populations at risk for HIV infection are having a positive impact. These efforts have included media and social marketing campaigns (e.g., Act Against AIDS¶¶).

To clarify the lowering effect of metabolic syndrome (MetS) on serum prostate‐specific antigen (PSA) levels in a Chinese screened population. A total of 45 540 ostensibly healthy men aged 55–69 years who underwent routine health check‐ups at Beijing Shijitan Hospital between 2008 and 2015 were included in the study. All the men underwent detailed clinical evaluations.
