Measurement of 2p-3d absorption in a hot molybdenum plasma

We present measurements of the 2p-3d transition opacity of a hot molybdenum-scandium sample with nearly half-vacant molybdenum M-shell configurations.A plastic-tamped molybdenum-scandium foil sample is radiatively heated to high temperature in a compact D-shaped gold Hohlraum driven by∼30 kJ laser energy at the SG-100 kJ laser facility.X rays transmitted through the molybdenum and scandium plasmas are diffracted by crystals and finally recorded by image plates.The electron temperatures in the sample in particular spatial and temporal zones are determined by the K-shell absorption of the scandium plasma.A combination of the IRAD3D view factor code and the MULTI hydrodynamic code is used to simulate the spatial distribution and temporal behavior of the sample temperature and density.The inferred temperature in the molybdenum plasma reaches a average of 138±11 eV.A detailed configuration-accounting calculation of the n=2–3 transition absorption of the molybdenum plasma is compared with experimental measurements and quite good agreement is found.The present measurements provide an opportunity to test opacity models for complicated M-shell configurations.

Pregnancy・lnduced Hemophagocytic Lymphohistiocytosis: A Case Report and Literature Review

Hemophagocytic lymphohistiocytosis(HLH)is a rare but devastating disease characterized by dysregulated immune response and hyp er inflammation.To our knowledge,pregnancy-induced HLH has been rarely reported in the literature.A 30-year・old pregnant woman presented persistent fever for 21 days since 17 weeks of pregnancy.The possible etiologies such as infection,autoimmune disorder,and malignancy had been ruled out based on a series of exhaustive examinations.The disease progressed despite the use of broadspectrum antibiotics and dexamethasone.The patient was diagnosed as pregnancy-induced HLH,and finally recovered completely after termination of pregnancy by caesarean and the continuous use of glucocorticoid which played a crucial part in controlling hyp er inflammation.Pregnancy-induced HLH could be fatal if effective treatment was not initiated timely.Further studies are needed to improve early diagnosis and etiology identification of HLH.

Tracking the in vivo spatio-temporal patterns of neovascularization via NIR-II fluorescence imaging

The in vivo spatio-temporal patterns of neovascularization are still poorly understood because it is limited to multi-scale techniques from the cellular level to living animal level.Owing to deep tissue-penetration and zero autofluorescence background,the second near-infrared(NIR-II,1,000–1,700 nm)fluorescence imaging recently shows promise in breaking through this dilemma by dynamically tracking the pathophysiological process of neovascularization in vivo.Here,NIR-II fluorescence imaging was recruited for monitoring blood vessels in order to visualize the vascular injury and quantitively assess neovascularization in mouse models of acute skeleton muscle contusion and hindlimb ischemia.The temporal analysis of real-time NIR-II fluorescence intensity demonstrated that the blood flow perfusion of ischemia area was able to rapidly restore to 96%of pre-ischemic state within one week.Moreover,the spatial analysis revealed that the lower and outer quadrants of ischemia area in the mouse model of hindlimb ischemia always had relatively high blood flow perfusion compared with other quadrants during three weeks post-ischemia,and even exceeded pre-ischemic quantity at 21 days post-ischemia.In conclusion,this in vivo imaging technique has significant potential utility for studying the spatio-temporal patterns of neovascularization in vivo.

In vivo and in situ real-time fluorescence imaging of peripheral nerves in the NIR-II window

The peripheral nervous system(PNS)is essential for performing and maintaining various motor and sensory functions.Abnormalities can lead to a series of peripheral neurological conditions,such as paraesthesia,pain,or spasms,which are debilitating and lowering the quality of life.Thecurrent guidelines for diagnosis rely predominantly on clinical symptoms resulting from PNS dysfunction,which occur already at an advancedstage.There are currently no effective methods that visually reflect the extent of peripheral neuropathy.In our study,we present a novel in vivoand in situ real-time imaging of peripheral nerves based on the second near-infrared window(NIR-II)fluoresce nee.In NIR-II system,lead sulfidequa ntum dots(PbS Qds)with NIR-II fluoresce nee specifically bound to motor neuro rvspecific protein agrin,acting as image con trast.In micemodel,peripheral nerves were visible as soon as after 2 h post injection.We provide evidenee for the efficacy of this approach,which allows todirectly dem on strate peripheral nerves,their structure,and pote ntial damagesites and degree.Furthermore,our products were of goodbiocompatibility,while the n eural fluoresce nee signal was solid,bright and stable for 4 h in vivo.Thus,overall,our results suggest that NIR-II isan effective new method for direct imaging of peripheral nerves in vivo,opening new horizons on early,improved and more precise,targeteddiag no sis.A resulti ng more rapid installatio n of perso nalized therapy facilitates a better prognosis of clinical peripheral neuropathy.
