Retaining the self-released chalcogenate at reconstructed cobalt sites by self-transformed carbonate regulation for boosted oxygen evolution

The in-situ generated oxyanions at electrochemically reconstructed catalysts from metal-based nonoxide compounds have been proven to significantly accelerate oxygen evolution reaction(OER)kinetics.However,it remains a challenge to retain these self-released oxyanions at reconstructed catalysts,hindering its utilization as a tool to develop efficient OER catalysts.Here,we demonstrate a versatile selftransformed carbonate regulation strategy to efficiently retain the self-released chalcogenate at Co oxyhydroxides reconstructed from carbon-incorporated Co selenides under OER conditions.These selftransformed CO_(3)^(2-)can induce electron accumulation and narrow d bond at Co sites to facilitate the Co3d-O 2p orbital hybridization between Co sites and SeO_(x)^(2-)for enhanced SeO_(x)^(2-)retention,which can accelerate the rate-limiting step for^(*)OOH formation during OER.Relative to CoOOH-SeO_(x)^(2-)with limited SeO_(x)^(2-)residues,CoOOH-CO_(3)^(2-)/SeO_(x)^(2-)with elevated SeO_(x)^(2-)retention by CO_(3)^(2-)regulation exhibited a 5.6-fold increase in current density and a remarkable lower Tafel slope towards OER.This strategy paves a rational avenue to design efficient catalysts for electrooxidation reactions through finely regulating self-released oxyanions at reconstructed structures.

Porocarcinoma in a palm reconstructed with a full thickness skin graft: A case report

BACKGROUND Porocarcinoma is a rare type of skin cancer that originates from sweat gland tumors.It is an aggressive malignant skin cancer that is difficult to diagnose clinically owing to its rarity and similarity to squamous cell carcinoma(SCC).CASE SUMMARY This case involved a 92-year-old woman,a farmer by profession,presented with an exophytic and verrucous mass on her left palm that had formed 2 years prior and caused chronic pain and frequent bleeding.Initially,the patient was diagnosed with SCC using a punch biopsy;however,a repeat biopsy with addi-tional immunohistochemical tests was performed for porocarcinoma.Ultimately,the patient was diagnosed with porocarcinoma and reconstruction was planned using a full-thickness skin graft.After treatment,the range of motion of the palm was preserved,and the aesthetic outcome was favorable.At 6 mo of follow-up,the patient was satisfied with the outcome.CONCLUSION Porocarcinoma is commonly misdiagnosed as SCC;therefore,clinicians should consider porocarcinomas when evaluating mass-like lesions on the hands.

Deciphering Water Oxidation Catalysts:The Dominant Role of Surface Chemistry over Reconstruction Degree in Activity Promotion

Water splitting hinges crucially on the availability of electrocatalysts for the oxygen evolution reaction.The surface reconstruction has been widely observed in perovskite catalysts,and the reconstruction degree has been often correlated with the activity enhancement.Here,a systematic study on the roles of Fe substitution in activation of perovskite LaNiO_(3)is reported.The substituting Fe content influences both current change tendency and surface reconstruction degree.LaNi_(0.9)Fe_(0.1)O_(3)is found exhibiting a volcano-peak intrinsic activity in both pristine and reconstructed among all substituted perovskites in the LaNi_(1-x)Fe_(x)O_(3)(x=0.00,0.10,0.25,0.50,0.75,1.00)series.The reconstructed LaNi_(0.9)Fe_(0.1)O_(3)shows a higher intrinsic activity than most reported NiFe-based catalysts.Besides,density functional theory calculations reveal that Fe substitution can lower the O 2p level,which thus stabilize lattice oxygen in LaNi0.9Fe0.1O3 and ensure its long-term stability.Furthermore,it is vital interesting that activity of the reconstructed catalysts relied more on the surface chemistry rather than the reconstruction degree.The effect of Fe on the degree of surface reconstruction of the perovskite is decoupled from that on its activity enhancement after surface reconstruction.This finding showcases the importance to customize the surface chemistry of reconstructed catalysts for water oxidation.

Navigating medial patellotibial ligament reconstruction:Clinical perspectives and surgical strategies

The surgical approach for patellar instability usually refers to reconstruction of the medial patellofemoral ligament associated with an osteotomy of the tibial tuberosity or a trochleoplasty when required.The medial patellotibial ligament and the medial patellomeniscal ligament are secondary stabilizers of the patella.Despite this,both the medial patellotibial and patellofemoral ligaments aid in patellar rotation and tilt when the knee is flexed beyond 45°.The medial patellotibial ligament plays a particularly important role in the final stages of stretching in extension and between 40 degrees to 90 degrees of flexion.The clinical relevance and surgical indications for medial patellotibial ligament reconstruction associated with medial patellofemoral ligament reconstruction are still controversial.This editorial explores the surgical indications and clinical results for medial patellotibial ligament reconstruction to improve readers’understanding of this technique,especially because reported clinical outcomes have remained sparse.

Exploration of Gas‑Dependent Self‑Adaptive Reconstruction Behavior of Cu_(2)O for Electrochemical CO_(2) Conversion to Multi‑Carbon Products

Structural reconstruction of electrocatalysts plays a pivotal role in catalytic performances for CO_(2)reduction reaction(CO_(2)RR),whereas the behavior is by far superficially understood.Here,we report that CO_(2)accessibility results in a universal self-adaptive structural reconstruction from Cu_(2)O to Cu@CuxO composites,ending with feeding gas-dependent microstructures and catalytic performances.The CO_(2)-rich atmosphere favors reconstruction for CO_(2)RR,whereas the CO_(2)-deficient one prefers that for hydrogen evolution reaction.With the assistance of spectroscopic analysis and theoretical calculations,we uncover a CO_(2)-induced passivation behavior by identifying a reductionresistant but catalytic active Cu(I)-rich amorphous layer stabilized by*CO intermediates.Additionally,we find extra CO production is indispensable for the robust production of C2H4.An inverse correlation between durability and FECO/FEC2H4 is disclosed,suggesting that the selfstabilization process involving the absorption of*CO intermediates on Cu(I)sites is essential for durable electrolysis.Guided by this insight,we design hollow Cu_(2)O nanospheres for durable and selective CO_(2)RR electrolysis in producing C2H4.Our work recognizes the previously overlooked passivation reconstruction and self-stabilizing behavior and highlights the critical role of the local atmosphere in modulating reconstruction and catalytic processes.

Reconstructing forest and grassland cover changes in China over the past millennium

Historical forest and grassland cover changes not only are critical indicators for quantifying ecological and environmental change processes but also serve as fundamental data for long-term climate change simulations and terrestrial ecosystem carbon emission assessments.However,because of limitations in historical data,quantitative estimations and spatially gridded reconstructions of these changes remain challenging,necessitating further methodological exploration.This study focused on China's present-day land area over the past millennium,objectively capturing the characteristics and drivers of forest and grassland cover changes.On this basis,using the forest transition theory and the space-for-time substitution method,we depicted the historical deforestation process as an inverted“S”curve and developed a model to reconstruct historical forest area changes based on the functional relationship between the forest area and population size dynamics.Subsequently,a gridded forest allocation model was established on the basis of deforestation tendencies.For the grassland cover,we implemented regionspecific methods,such as the cropland area deduction method and the habitat constraint method,to quantitatively reconstruct historical changes.Consequently,we obtained provincial forest and grassland area changes over the past millennium and mapped 10-km-resolution gridded data of forest and grassland cover.The results indicated the following.(1)The methods developed using population data as a proxy objectively reproduced the spatiotemporal evolution of forest and grassland cover in China over the past millennium.These feasible methods offer a novel pathway for the quantitative reconstruction of historical forest and grassland cover changes.(2)The data indicated that China's forest area generally decreased over the past millennium,characterized by a“decrease-then-increase”pattern.The forest area experienced three distinct phases:a slow decline(AD 1000–1650),a rapid decline(AD 1650–1960),and a gradual recovery(AD 1960–2000).The area decreased from 298 million hectares(Mha)in AD 1000 to 89 Mha in AD 1960 before increasing to 153 Mha in AD 2000.Spatially,deforestation began in the middlelower reaches of the Yellow River and gradually expanded to the middle-lower reaches of the Yangtze River,the southern coastal areas of China,southwest China,and northeast China,with the forest cover declining by 27%,40%,58%,55%,and 35%in these regions,respectively.(3)China's grassland area has shown a continuous decline over the past millennium with three phases:stable fluctuation(AD 1000–1600),slow decline(AD 1600–1900),and rapid decline(AD 1900–2000).The grassland area decreased from 305 Mha in AD 1000 to 277 Mha in AD 2000.Notably,zonal grassland areas in Northeast China,Inner Mongolia,Gan-Ning,Qinghai,Xinjiang,and Xizang decreased by 28 Mha over the millennium,whereas nonzonal secondary grassland areas in the hilly and mountainous areas of eastern and southern China increased by 0.3 Mha.

Magnamosis for rectal reconstruction in canines

BACKGROUND The magnamosis,a minimal invasive,suture-free procedure,has been used for digestive tract or vessel reconstruction,such as gastrointestinal anastomosis,bilioenteric anastomosis,and coronary artery bypass.Although some case reports have demonstrated the potential of magnamosis for the treatment of congenital rectal atresia(RA),they cannot provide strong evidence for its widespread application.AIM To assess the feasibility and safety of magnamosis in treating RA in dogs as compared to suturing anastomosis.The findings of this study can be beneficial in guiding the clinical application of magnamosis.METHODS Thirty-six dogs were randomly assigned to the magnamosis group(n=18)and the suturing anastomosis group(n=18).The rectum was freed laparoscopically in all dogs.In the magnamosis group,rectal anastomosis was performed using a pair of magnetic rings,while the suturing anastomosis group underwent a straight-sighted end-to-end rectal anastomosis with 4-0 absorbable sutures.The anastomosis time was recorded,and abdominal plain film examination was performed to locate the magnets until they were expelled postoperatively.Specimens of the anastomosis were evaluated at one month,three months,and six months after surgery.RESULTS The mean time for rectal anastomosis was significantly shorter in the magnamosis group(12.22±2.78 minutes)than the suturing anastomosis group(18.11±1.68 minutes).There was one incidence of anastomotic bleeding in the suturing anastomosis group,whereas no complication was recorded in the magnamosis group.The magnets were discharged post-surgery in 7.17±1.30 days in all the dogs.The histopathological examination revealed a smoother healing of anastomotic mucosa in the magnamosis group as compared to that in the suturing anastomosis group.Moreover,the fiber alignment was also more natural in the magnamosis group with minimal inflammation.CONCLUSION Rectal reconstruction using magnamosis is a feasible,safe,and effective alternative to suturing anastomosis in dogs,with the added benefit of faster and more natural healing of the anastomosis.

From Imperfection to Perfection: Advanced 3D Facial Reconstruction Using MICA Models and Self-Supervision Learning

Research on reconstructing imperfect faces is a challenging task.In this study,we explore a data-driven approach using a pre-trained MICA(MetrIC fAce)model combined with 3D printing to address this challenge.We propose a training strategy that utilizes the pre-trained MICA model and self-supervised learning techniques to improve accuracy and reduce the time needed for 3D facial structure reconstruction.Our results demonstrate high accuracy,evaluated by the geometric loss function and various statistical measures.To showcase the effectiveness of the approach,we used 3D printing to create a model that covers facial wounds.The findings indicate that our method produces a model that fits well and achieves comprehensive 3D facial reconstruction.This technique has the potential to aid doctors in treating patients with facial injuries.

Novel surgical approach-cadaveric inferior vena cava graft reconstruction following leiomyosarcoma resection:A case report

BACKGROUND Inferior vena cava(IVC)leiomyosarcomas are rare and aggressive tumors.Complete cure depends on achieving R0 resection,which often requires circumferential resection and reconstruction.Synthetic grafts have traditionally been used when venous continuity must be restored.However,the use of cadaveric IVC grafts for reconstruction has not been widely reported.CASE SUMMARY Herein,we present the case of a 64-year-old woman diagnosed with an intrahepatic IVC leiomyosarcoma with local invasion.The patient responded favorably to chemotherapy and subsequently underwent an en bloc right hepatectomy,retrohepatic IVC resection,and reconstruction with an interpositional cadaveric IVC graft.Serial imaging follow-ups until 2 years after the operation showed persistent patency of the graft and no graft-related complications.CONCLUSION Cadaveric IVC grafts are an alternative to synthetic grafts for reconstruction,with acceptable outcomes.Larger,long-term studies are necessary to validate these findings.

Emergent 3×3 charge order on the Cs reconstruction of kagome superconductor CsV3Sb5

The alkali adatoms with controlled coverage on the surface have been demonstrated to effectively tune the surface band of quantum materials through in situ electron doping.However,the interplay of orderly arranged alkali adatoms with the surface states of quantum materials remains unexplored.Here,by using low-temperature scanning tunneling microscopy/spectroscopy(STM/S),we observed the emergent 3×3 super modulation of electronic states on the√3×√3R30°(R3)Cs ordered surface of kagome superconductor CsV3Sb5.The nondispersive 3×3 superlattice at R3 ordered surface shows contrast inversion in positive and negative differential conductance maps,indicating a charge order origin.The 3×3 charge order is suppressed with increasing temperature and undetectable at a critical temperature of~62 K.Furthermore,in the Ta substituted sample CsV_(2.6)Ta_(0.4)Sb_(5),where long-range 2×2×2 charge density wave is significantly suppressed,the 3×3 charge order on the R3 ordered surface becomes blurred and much weaker than that in the undoped sample.It indicates that the 3×3 charge order on the R3 ordered surface is directly correlated to the bulk charge density waves in CsV_(3)Sb_(5.O)ur work provides a new platform for understanding and manipulating the cascade of charge orders in kagome superconductors.

Three-Dimensional Reconstructed Finite Element Model for C/C Composites by Micro-CT

The precise microscopic feature of carbon-carbon（C/C） composites is essential {or an accurate predic tion of their mechanical behavior. After fabrication, actual microscopic feature differs from simple ideal spatial model. Micro computed lomography（CT） scan can well describe internal microstruetures of composites. Therefore, a reconstructed model is developed based on mireo-CT, by a series of prodcedures including extrac tlng components, generating new binary images and establishing a finite element （FE） model. Compared with the model designed by reconstructed commercial software MIMICS. the presented reconstructed FE model is superior in terms of high mesh quality and eontrollable mesh cluantity. The precision of the model is verified by experiment.

Reconstructed rheometer for direct monitoring of dewatering performance and torque in tailings thickening process

To further clarify the dewatering performance and torque evolution during the tailings thickening process,a self-made rake was connected to a rheometer to monitor the shear stress and torque.The dewatering performance of the total tailings was greatly improved to a solid mass fraction of 75.33%in 240 min.The dewatering process could be divided into three stages:the rapid torque growth period,damping torque growth period,and constant torque thickening zone.The machine restart was found to have a significant effect on the rake torque;it could result in rake blockage.Furthermore,the simultaneous evolution of the torque and solid mass fraction of thickened tailings was analyzed.A relationship between the torque and the solid mass fraction was established,which followed a power function.Both the experimental and theoretical results provide a reference for the deep cone thickener design and operation to enhance the dewatering performance.

Probability Density Function Method for Observing Reconstructed Attractor Structure

Probability density function (PDF) method is proposed for analysing the structure of the reconstructed attractor in computing the correlation dimensions of RR intervals of ten normal old men. PDF contains important information about the spatial distribution of the phase points in the reconstructed attractor. To the best of our knowledge, it is the first time that the PDF method is put forward for the analysis of the reconstructed attractor structure. Numerical simulations demonstrate that the cardiac systems of healthy old men are about 6-6.5 dimensional complex dynamical systems. It is found that PDF is not symmetrically distributed when time delay is small, while PDF satisfies Gaussian distribution when time delay is big enough. A cluster effect mechanism is presented to explain this phenomenon. By studying the shape of PDFs, that the roles played by time delay are more important than embedding dimension in the reconstruction is clearly indicated. Results have demonstrated that the PDF method represents a promising numerical approach for the observation of the reconstructed attractor structure and may provide more information and new diagnostic potential of the analyzed cardiac system.

Structure of Reconstructed Cu（100） Surface Induced by Dissociative Adsorption of Gaseous Oxygen

The reconstructed structures of Cu（100） surface induced by O2 dissociative adsorption were investigated by low energy electron diffraction and scanning tunneling microscopy. At lower oxygen coverage, it was found that two reconstructed structures, i.e. c（2×2）-O and （√2×2√2）R45°-O are coexistent. The domain size of the c（2×2）-O structure decreased with the increasing of O2 exposure. The reconstructed structure at very small coverage was also investigated and a “zigzag” structure was observed at this stage. The “zigzag” structure was identified as boundaries of local c（2×2） domains. It was found that the strip region shows much stronger molecule-substrate interaction than that of oxygen covered regions, making it a proper template for patterned organic films. The sequence of the thermal stability was found as zigzag structure〉c（2×2）〉（√2×2√2）R45°-O.

ACCURATE DETECTION OF HIGH-SPEED MULTI-TARGET VIDEO SEQUENCES MOTION REGIONS BASED ON RECONSTRUCTED BACKGROUND DIFFERENCE

The paper first discusses shortcomings of classical adjacent-frame difference. Sec ondly, based on the image energy and high order statistic(HOS) theory, background reconstruction constraints are setup. Under the help of block-processing technology, background is reconstructed quickly. Finally, background difference is used to detect motion regions instead of adjacent frame difference. The DSP based platform tests indicate the background can be recovered losslessly in about one second, and moving regions are not influenced by moving target speeds. The algorithm has important usage both in theory and applications.

Three-dimensional reconstructed magnetic resonance scans:Accuracy in identifying and defining knee meniscal tears

AIM To determine whether three-dimensional(3D) reconstruction from conventional magnetic resonance imaging(MRI) is able to accurately detect a meniscal tear, and define the configuration.METHODS Thirty-three patients' 3T MRI scan data were collected and sagittal uni-planar 3D reconstructions performed from the preoperative MRI. There were 24 meniscal tears in 24 patients, and nine controls. All patients had arthroscopic corroboration of MRI findings. Two independent observers prospectively reported on all 33 reconstructions. Meniscal tear presence or absence was noted, and tear configuration subsequently categorised as either radial, bucket-handle, parrot beak, horizontal or complex.RESULTS Identification of control menisci or meniscal tear presence was excellent(Accuracy: observer 1 = 90.9%; observer 2 = 81.8%). Of the tear configurations, bucket handle tears were accurately identified(Accuracy observer 1 and 2 = 80%). The remaining tear configurations were notaccurately discernable.CONCLUSION Uni-planar 3D reconstruction from 3T MRI knee scan sequences are useful in identifying normal menisci and menisci with bucket-handle tears. Advances in MRI sequencing and reconstruction software are awaited for accurate identification of the remaining meniscal tear configurations.

Deep learning approach to detect seizure using reconstructed phase space images

Epilepsy is a chronic neurological disorder that affects the function of the brain in people of all ages.It manifests in the electroencephalogram(EEG) signal which records the electrical activity of the brain.Various image processing,signal processing,and machine-learning based techniques are employed to analyze epilepsy,using spatial and temporal features.The nervous system that generates the EEG signal is considered nonlinear and the EEG signals exhibit chaotic behavior.In order to capture these nonlinear dynamics,we use reconstructed phase space(RPS) representation of the signal.Earlier studies have primarily addressed seizure detection as a binary classification(normal vs.ictal) problem and rarely as a ternary class(normal vs.interictal vs.ictal)problem.We employ transfer learning on a pre-trained deep neural network model and retrain it using RPS images of the EEG signal.The classification accuracy of the model for the binary classes is(98.5±1.5)% and(95±2)% for the ternary classes.The performance of the convolution neural network(CNN) model is better than the other existing statistical approach for all performance indicators such as accuracy,sensitivity,and specificity.The result of the proposed approach shows the prospect of employing RPS images with CNN for predicting epileptic seizures.

Coupling ferromagnetic ordering electron transfer channels and surface reconstructed active species for spintronic electrocatalysis of water oxidation

Sluggish reaction kinetics of oxygen evolution reaction(OER), resulting from multistep proton-coupled electron transfer and spin constriction, limits overall efficiency for most reported catalysts. Herein, using modeled ZnFe_(2-x)Ni_xO_(4)(0 ≤ x ≤ 0.4) spinel oxides, we aim to develop better OER electrocatalyst through combining the construction of ferromagnetic(FM) ordering channels and generation of highly active reconstructed species. The number of symmetry-breaking Fe–O–Ni structure links to the formation of FM ordering electron transfer channels. Meanwhile, as the number of Ni^(3+)increases, more ligand holes are formed, beneficial for redirecting surface reconstruction. The electro-activated ZnFe_(1.6)Ni_(0.4)O_(4) shows the highest specific activity, which is 13 and 2.5 times higher than that of ZnFe_(2)O_(4) and unactivated ZnFe_(1.6)Ni_(0.4)O_(4), and even superior to the benchmark IrO_(2) under the overpotential of 350 mV. Applying external magnetic field can make electron spin more aligned, and the activity can be further improved to 39 times of ZnFe_(2)O_(4). We propose that intriguing FM exchange-field interaction at FM/paramagnetic interfaces can penetrate FM ordering channels into reconstructed oxyhydroxide layers, thereby activating oxyhydroxide layers as spin-filter to accelerate spin-selective electron transfer. This work provides a new guideline to develop highly efficient spintronic catalysts for water oxidation and other spin-forbidden reactions.

Immobilization of Oxyanions on the Reconstructed Heterostructure Evolved from a Bimetallic Oxysulfide for the Promotion of Oxygen Evolution Reaction

Efficient and durable oxygen evolution reaction(OER)requires the electrocatalyst to bear abundant active sites,optimized electronic structure as well as robust component and mechanical stability.Herein,a bimetallic lanthanum-nickel oxysulfide with rich oxygen vacancies based on the La_(2)O_(2)S prototype is fabricated as a binder-free precatalyst for alkaline OER.The combination of advanced in situ and ex situ characterizations with theoretical calculation uncovers the synergistic effect among La,Ni,O,and S species during OER,which assures the adsorption and stabilization of the oxyanion SO_(4)^(2-)onto the surface of the deeply reconstructed porous heterostructure composed of confining Ni OOH nanodomains by La(OH)_3 barrier.Such coupling,confinement,porosity and immobilization enable notable improvement in active site accessibility,phase stability,mass diffusion capability and the intrinsic Gibbs free energy of oxygen-containing intermediates.The optimized electrocatalyst delivers exceptional alkaline OER activity and durability,outperforming most of the Ni-based benchmark OER electrocatalysts.
