High-Performance Solid-State Supercapacitors Fabricated by Pencil Drawing and Polypyrrole Depositing on Paper Substrate

A solid-state powerful supercapacitor(SC) is fabricated with a substrate of Xerox paper. Its current collector based on a foldable electronic circuit is developed by simply pencil drawing. Thin graphite sheets on paper provide effective channels for electron transmission with a low resistance of 95 X sq-1. The conductive organic material of polypyrrole coated on thin graphite sheets acts as the electrode material of the device. The as-fabricated SC exhibits a high specific capacitance of 52.9 F cm-3at a scan rate of 1 m V s-1. An energy storage unit fabricated by three full-charged series SCs can drive a commercial light-emitting diode robustly. This work demonstrated a simple, versatile and costeffective method for paper-based devices.

Magnetic graphene oxide-anchored Ni/Cu nanoparticles with a Cu-rich surface for transfer hydrogenation of nitroaromatics

The bimetallic nanoparticles compositing of Ni-rich core and Cu-rich shell(Ni/Cu NPs)were successfully synthesized by a liquid-phase thermal decomposition method.The content of copper and nickel in Ni/Cu NPs was controllable by adjusting the ratio of two metal precursors,copper formate(Cuf)and nickel acetate tetrahydrate(Ni(OAc)_(2)·4H_(2)O).Ni/Cu NPs were further anchored on graphene oxide(GO)to prepare a magnetic composite catalyst,called Ni/Cu-GO.The dispersibility of Ni/Cu NPs in solution was enhanced by GO anchoring to prevent the sintering and aggregation during the reaction process,thereby ensuring the catalytic and cycling performance of the catalyst.The catalytic transfer hydrogenation(CTH)reaction of nitroaromatics was investigated when ammonia borane was used as the hydrogen source.Cu dominated the main catalytic role in the reaction,while Ni played a synergistic role of catalysis and providing magnetic properties for separation.The Ni_(7)/Cu_(3)-GO catalyst exhibited the best catalytic performance with the conversion and yield of 99%and 96%,respectively,when 2-methyl-5-nitrophenol was used as the substrate.The Ni_(7)/Cu_(3)-GO catalyst also exhibited excellent cyclic catalytic performance with the 5-amino-2-methylphenol yield of above 90%after six cycles.In addition,the Ni_(7)/Cu_(3)-GO catalyst could be quickly recycled by magnetic separation.Moreover,the Ni_(7)/Cu_(3)-GO catalyst showed good catalytic performance for halogen-containing nitroaromatics without dehalogenation.

Chinese expert consensus on the diagnosis and treatment of balanoposthitis

Balanoposthitis(BP),a common male genitalia inflammation,is managed by clinicians from different specialties,including urology,pediatrics,dermatology,and venereology.Due to this diverse array of clinicians involved,there exists a lack of consistent,evidence-based recommendations for BP.The development of the consensus engaged 19 representative hospitals and it adhered to rigorous protocols,encompassing international registration(IPGRP-2021CN003)and the application of evidence grading criteria and recommendation standards[Appendix S1,Supplementary File,http://links.lww.com/CM9/C42].Over the period from December 2020 to October 2022,consensus on 12 clinical issues was reached through comprehensive evidence searches and two iterations of Delphi surveys[Supplementary File,http://links.lww.com/CM9/C42].

RNA modifications:importance in immune cell biology and related diseases

RNA modifications have become hot topics recently.By influencing RNA processes,including generation,transportation,function,and metabolization,they act as critical regulators of cell biology.The immune cell abnormality in human diseases is also a research focus and progressing rapidly these years.Studies have demonstrated that RNA modifications participate in the multiple biological processes of immune cells,including development,differentiation,activation,migration,and polarization,thereby modulating the immune responses and are involved in some immune related diseases.In this review,we present existing knowledge of the biological functions and underlying mechanisms of RNA modifications,including N6-methyladenosine(m^(6)A),5-methylcytosine(m^(5)C),N1-methyladenosine(m1 A),N7-methylguanosine(m^(7)G),N4-acetylcytosine(ac^(4)C),pseudouridine(Ψ),uridylation,and adenosine-to-inosine(A-to-I)RNA editing,and summarize their critical roles in immune cell biology.Via regulating the biological processes of immune cells,RNA modifications can participate in the pathogenesis of immune related diseases,such as cancers,infection,inflammatory and autoimmune diseases.We further highlight the challenges and future directions based on the existing knowledge.All in all,this review will provide helpful knowledge as well as novel ideas for the researchers in this area.
