Abstract
From 1997 to 2002, retention of coded wire tags (CWTs) and visible implant elastomer (VIE) tags was evaluated in a series of stock enhancement studies with common snook Centropomus undecimalis (60–230 mm fork length (FL)). These experiments were conducted in both field and laboratory settings in Sarasota, Florida. Retention rates of CWTs were stable after 30 d and remained greater than 97% even 1 year after tagging. Retention of VIE tags was compared among different body implant locations, implant techniques, and fish sizes. Body location had the strongest influence on VIE retention, and tags implanted in the fins (anal and caudal) had significantly higher retention rates (mean ± SE = 76 ± 9%) than those implanted in the head (adipose eyelid, jaw, and preorbital nose tissue; 5.6 ± 1.8%, P = 0.038) 1 year after tagging. After 1 year, however, most VIE tags—regardless of body location—were nearly indistinguishable or lost. Fish implanted with two VIE marks had consistently higher mean tag retention rates and visibility than those with single marks (86% versus 64% mean retention in the caudal fins 7–12 months after tagging). Fish size at tagging was not a significant contributor to tag loss. Tagging rates were slowest with VIEs: 250–400 fish per hour and 200–300 fish per hour when one and two VIE marks, respectively, were injected per fish. Tagging mortality was less than 1.6%. No significant differences in tag retention or mortality were found between field and laboratory trials. Overall, we recommend CWTs implanted in cheek muscle and at least two VIE marks implanted in the caudal fin as tagging methods and locations for juvenile common snook because of the ability to tag large numbers of fish, high tag retention, and low tagging mortality.

Abstract
A collection of known-age black crappies Pomoxis nigromaculatus and white crappies P. annularis (ages 1–5) was used to evaluate the accuracy and precision of ages estimated from otoliths and scales by readers of varying experience levels. Age estimation accuracy for black crappie otoliths averaged 99.6%, whereas accuracy for scales was 77.6%. Accuracy of age estimates from white crappie otoliths averaged 98.5%, whereas accuracy of estimates from scales averaged 80.4%. For both species, age estimation precision was higher for otoliths than for scales. Reader bias (e.g., difference between true age and estimated age) tended to be greater for scales than otoliths in both species. Bias in otolith age estimation was minimal and only apparent for age-5 crappies, which were consistently underaged. Bias in scale age estimation was most apparent for age-4 and age-5 crappies, which were also typically underaged. Reader experience influenced the degree of precision and bias; experienced readers produced more precise and less biased age estimates. The use of otoliths to improve crappie age estimate precision and bias has been well documented. Through the use of known-age fish, we provide evidence that age estimate accuracy can also be improved.

ImportanceOpioid exposure during pregnancy has been associated with preterm birth, but prior studies have not differentiated between spontaneous and indicated preterm birth or fully investigated these associations as functions of opioid dose.ObjectiveTo determine whether prescription opioid use during pregnancy is associated with spontaneous preterm birth and whether the association is dose-dependent.Design, Setting, and ParticipantsThis case-control study examined a retrospective cohort of pregnant patients enrolled in Tennessee Medicaid. Enrollment files were linked to health care encounters, hospital discharge information, birth certificate data, and prescription fills. Eligible participants were pregnant people ages 15 to 44 years without opioid use disorder who experienced birth of a single fetus at 24 weeks gestation or greater between 2007 and 2019 with linked birth certificate data. Cases of spontaneous preterm birth were matched with up to 10 controls based on pregnancy start date, race, ethnicity, age at delivery within 2 years, and history of prior preterm birth. Cases and matched controls were continuously enrolled in TennCare for at least 90 days prior to the index date (case delivery date).ExposureTotal opioid MME filled during the 60 days prior to the index date.Main Outcomes and MeasuresThe primary outcome was spontaneous preterm birth determined by a validated algorithm using birth certificate data. Conditional logistic regression was used to estimate the association between spontaneous preterm birth and total opioid morphine milligram equivalents (MME) dispensed, adjusting for parity, prepregnancy body mass index, education level, tobacco use, hepatitis infections, and pain indications.ResultsA total of 25 391 cases (median [IQR] age, 23 [20-28] years; 127 Asian [0.5%], 9820 Black [38.7%], 664 Hispanic [2.6%]; 14 748 non-Hispanic White [58.1%]) with spontaneous preterm birth were identified and matched with 225 696 controls (median [IQR] age, 23 [20-27] years; 229 Asian [0.1%], 89 819 Black [39.8%], 3590 Hispanic [1.6%]; 132 002 non-Hispanic White [58.5%]) (251 087 patients total), with 18 702 patients (7.4%) filling an opioid prescription in the 60 days prior to the index date. Each doubling of nonzero opioid MME was associated with a 4% increase in the odds of spontaneous preterm birth compared with no opioid exposure (adjusted odds ratio, 1.04; 95% CI, 1.01-1.08).Conclusions and RelevanceIn this case-control study, a positive association was found between total prescription opioid dose dispensed and the odds of spontaneous preterm birth. These findings support guidance to minimize opioid exposure during pregnancy and prescribe the lowest dose necessary.

AbstractOral wound treatment faces challenges due to the complex oral environment, thus, sealing the wound quickly becomes necessary. Although some materials have achieved adhesion and sterilization, how to effectively solve the contradiction between strong adhesion and on‐demand removal remains a challenge. Herein, a reversibly adhesive hydrogel is designed by free radical copolymerization of cationic monomer [2‐(acryloyloxy) ethyl] trimethylammonium chloride (ATAC), hydrophobic monomer ethylene glycol phenyl ether acrylate (PEA) and N‐isopropylacrylamide (NIPAAm). The cationic quaternary ammonium salts provide electrostatic interactions, the hydrophobic groups provide hydrophobic interactions, and the PNIPAAm chain segments provide hydrogen bonding, leading to strong adhesion. Therefore, the hydrogel obtains an adhesion strength of 18.67 KPa to oral mucosa and can seal wounds fast within 10 s. Furthermore, unlike pure PNIPAAm, the hydrogel has a lower critical solution temperature of 40.3 °C due to the contribution of ATAC and PEA, enabling rapid removal with 40 °C water after treatment. In addition, the hydrogel realizes excellent anti‐swelling ratio (≈80%) and antibacterial efficiency (over 90%). Animal experiments prove that the hydrogel effectively reduces inflammation infiltration, promotes collagen deposition and vascular regeneration. Thus, hydrogel as a multi‐functional dressing has great application prospects in oral wound management.

AbstractActivation of the cyclic GMP‐AMP synthase‐stimulator of interferon genes (cGAS‐STING) pathway has emerged as an efficient strategy to improve the therapeutic outcomes of immunotherapy. However, the “constantly active” mode of current STING agonist delivery strategies typically leads to off‐target toxicity and hyperimmunity. To address this critical issue, herein a metal‐organic frameworks‐based nanoagonist (DZ@A7) featuring tumor‐specific and near‐infrared (NIR) light‐enhanced decomposition is constructed for precisely localized STING activation and photodynamic‐metalloimmunotherapy. The engineered nanoagonist enabled the generation of mitochondria‐targeted reactive oxygen species under NIR irradiation to specifically release mitochondrial DNA (mtDNA) and inhibit the repair of nuclear DNA via hypoxia‐responsive drugs. Oxidized tumor mtDNA serves as an endogenous danger‐associated molecular pattern that activates the cGAS‐STING pathway. Concurrently, NIR‐accelerated zinc ions overloading in cancer cells further enhance the cGAS enzymatic activity through metalloimmune effects. By combining the synergistically enhanced activation of the cGAS‐STING pathway triggered by NIR irradiation, the engineered nanoagonist facilitated the maturation of dendritic cells and infiltration of cytotoxic T lymphocytes for primary tumor eradication, which also established a long‐term anti‐tumor immunity to suppress tumor metastasis. Therefore, the developed nanoagonist enabled NIR‐triggered, agonist‐free, and tandem‐amplified activation of the cGAS‐STING pathway, thereby offering a distinct paradigm for photodynamic‐metalloimmunotherapy.

AbstractAn ideal hydrogel for stem cell therapy would be injectable and efficiently promote stem cell proliferation and differentiation in body. Herein, an injectable, single‐component hydrogel with hyaluronic acid (HA) modified with phenylboronic acid (PBA) and spermidine (SM) is introduced. The resulting HAps (HA‐PBA‐SM) hydrogel is based on the reversible crosslinking between the diol and the ionized PBA, which is stabilized by the SM. It has a shear‐thinning property, enabling its injection through a syringe to form a stable hydrogel inside the body. In addition, HAps hydrogel undergoes a post‐injection “self‐curing,” which stiffens the hydrogel over time. This property allows the HAps hydrogel to meet the physical requirements for stem cell therapy in rigid tissues, such as bone, while maintaining injectability. The hydrogel enabled favorable proliferation of human mesenchymal stem cells (hMSCs) and promoted their differentiation and mineralization. After the injection of hMSCs‐containing HAps into a rat femoral defect model, efficient osteogenic differentiation of hMSCs and bone regeneration is observed. The study demonstrates that simple cationic modification of PBA‐based hydrogel enabled efficient gelation with shear‐thinning and self‐curing properties, and it would be highly useful for stem cell therapy and in vivo bone regeneration.

AbstractWide‐bandgap (>1.6 eV) mixed‐halide perovskites tend to experience notable open‐circuit voltage losses in solar cells due to non‐radiative recombination. Here, the effects of defects and their passivation on the non‐radiative recombination of charge carriers in mixed‐halide perovskite solar cells are studied. By determining the quasi‐Fermi level splitting via absolute photoluminescence measurements of perovskite layers with and without charge transport layers, bulk and interface contributions are disentangled and compared to the radiative open‐circuit voltage. For wide‐bandgap perovskites, non‐radiative recombination present in the pristine perovskite layers increases with increasing bandgap. The most prominent loss, located at the perovskite – electron transport layer interface (ETL), can be reduced by interface passivation for the different bandgaps studied (1.58 to 1.82 eV) to a level close to that of the intrinsic losses. By combining light‐intensity‐dependent absolute photoluminescence spectroscopy with sensitive spectral photocurrent measurements it is found that different passivation agents result in a similar decrease of the non‐radiative recombination for different bandgaps. This suggests that the gained open‐circuit voltage is not due to an improved energy level alignment at the perovskite – ETL interface. Instead, passivation involves eliminating the direct contact between the perovskite semiconductor and the ETL.

AbstractAs an ideal candidate for the next generation of large‐scale energy storage devices, sodium‐ion batteries (SIBs) have received great attention due to their low cost. However, the practical utility of SIBs faces constraints imposed by geographical and environmental factors, particularly in high‐altitude and cold regions. In these areas, the low‐temperature (LT) performance of SIBs presents a pressing technological challenge that requires significant breakthroughs. In LT environments, the electrochemical reaction kinetics of SIBs are sluggish, the electrode/electrolyte interface is unstable, and the diffusion of sodium ions in electrode materials is slow, leading to a decrease in battery performance. Therefore, the reasonable design of electrolyte and electrode materials is of great significance for optimizing the LT performance of SIBs. In this review, the research progress of LT SIBs electrolytes, cathode, and anode materials, as well as sodium metal batteries and solid‐state electrolytes is systematically summarized in recent years, aiming to understand the design principles of LT SIBs, clarify the basic research and development of high‐performance SIBs in practical applications, and promote the development of SIBs technology in the full temperature range.

AbstractC−C linked glutarimide‐containing structures with direct utility in the preparation of cereblon‐based degraders (PROTACs, CELMoDs) can be assessed in a single step from inexpensive, commercial α‐bromoglutarimide through a unique Brønsted‐acid assisted Ni‐electrocatalytic approach. The reaction tolerates a broad array of functional groups that are historically problematic and can be applied to the simplified synthesis of dozens of known compounds that have only been procured through laborious, wasteful, multi‐step sequences. The reaction is scalable in both batch and flow and features a trivial procedure wherein the most time‐consuming aspect of reaction setup is weighing out the starting materials.

AbstractIntegrating plasmonic nanoparticles with photonic crystals holds immense potential to enhance green hydrogen photosynthesis by amplifying localized electromagnetic field through generating surface plasmons and slow photons. Current plasmonic photonic designs primarily employ semiconductor‐based structural backbone deposited with plasmonic nanoparticles. However, the competition between various optical phenomena in these ensembles hinders effective field enhancement rather than facilitating it. This limitation creates a formidable performance bottleneck that retards hydrogen evolution. Herein, we enhance plasmonic catalysis for efficient hydrogen evolution by effectively harmonizing plasmonic and photonic effects. This is achieved by using inert SiO2 opal as a non‐photoabsorbing photonic framework. By aligning the excitation wavelengths of surface plasmons and slow photons, our optimized plasmonic photonic crystals demonstrates a remarkable H2 evolution rate of 560 mmol h−1 gAg−1, surpassing bare plasmonic Ag nanoparticles by >106‐fold and other high‐performance photocatalytic designs by 280‐fold. Mechanistic studies highlight the pivotal role of the non‐photoabsorbing photonic backbone in facilitating effective light confinement through the photonic effect. This in turn boosts the plasmonic field for enhanced photocatalytic H2 evolution, even without needing additional co‐catalysts. Our work offers valuable insights for future design of electromagnetically hot plasmonic catalysts to achieve efficient light‐to‐chemical transformations in diverse energy, chemical, and environmental applications.

AbstractAll‐solid‐state sodium metal batteries are promising for large‐scale energy storage applications owing to their intrinsic safety and cost‐effectiveness. However, they generally suffer from sodium dendrite growth or rapid capacity fading, especially at high rates, mainly due to poor wettability, sluggish ionic transport, or low interfacial stability of the solid electrolytes. Herein, we report a novel composite, NaB3H8 ⋅ xNH3@NaB3H8 (x<1), as a new class of solid electrolyte for high‐rate batteries. NaB3H8 ⋅ xNH3@NaB3H8 is obtained from the sticky NaB3H8 ⋅ NH3 after removal of NH3 partially at room temperature. It delivers an ionic conductivity of 0.84 mS cm−1 at 25 °C and reaches 20.64 mS cm−1 at 45 °C after an order‐disorder phase transformation. It also reveals a good capability of dendrite suppression and remarkable stability against sodium metal. These performances enable the all‐solid‐state Na//TiS2 battery with a high capacity of 232.4 mAh g−1 (97.2 % of theoretical capacity) and long‐term cycling stability at 1 C. Notably, this battery shows superior long‐life cycling stability even at 5 and 10 C, which has been rarely reported in all‐solid‐state sodium metal batteries. This work opens a new group of solid electrolytes, contributing to fast‐charging or high‐power‐density sodium metal batteries.

Published: February 2024

AbstractAlkynyl alcohol derivatives (N‐14) were synthesized by 2‐chloromethyl pyridine, propargyl alcohol and bromotetradecane and the structure was confirmed by 1H NMR, 13C NMR, MS and FTIR. The corrosion inhibition performance was evaluated by weight loss, Tafel polarization, EIS measurements and DFT quantum calculations. The results proved that N‐14 effectively inhibited the acid corrosion of N80 steel. The corrosion inhibition of N‐14 increased with its concentration and decreased with increasing temperature. A maximum of 99.56% inhibition efficiency was achieved using 5 × 10−5 mol/l of N‐14 at 60°C. Thermodynamic parameters showed that the adsorption of N‐14 on N80 steel is spontaneous and exothermic, conforming to Langmuir's adsorption. Electrochemical results showed that N‐14 behaved as a mixed‐type inhibitor. In addition, corrosion products produced on N80 steel surface were researched by SEM, XRD, UV and contact angle. At the same time, the corrosion inhibition mechanism was discussed.

AbstractAn original series of bipyrimidine‐based chromophores featuring alkoxystyryl donor groups bearing short chiral (S)‐2‐methylbutyl chains in positions 4, 3,4 and 3,5, connected to electron‐accepting 2,2‐bipyrimidine rings, has been developed. Their linear and non‐linear optical properties were studied using a variety of techniques, including one‐ and two‐photon absorption spectroscopy, fluorescence measurements, as well as Hyper‐Rayleigh scattering to determine the first hyperpolarizabilities. Their electronic and geometrical properties were rationalized by TD‐DFT calculations. The thermal properties of the compounds were also investigated by a combination of polarized light optical microscopy, differential scanning calorimetry measurements and small‐angle X‐ray scattering experiments. The derivatives were found not to have mesomorphic properties, but to exhibit melting temperatures or cold crystallization behavior that enabled the isolation of well‐organized thin films. The nonlinear optical properties of amorphous or crystalline thin films were studied by wide‐field second harmonic generation and multiphoton fluorescence imaging, confirming that non‐centrosymmetric crystal organization enables strong second and third harmonic generation. This new series confirms that our strategy of functionalizing 3D organic octupoles with short chiral chains to generate non‐centrosymmetric organized thin films enables the development of highly second order nonlinear optical active materials without the use of corona‐poling or tedious deposition techniques.
