description: Interactions of cationic tetrakis (N, N´, N´´, N´´´-   tetramethyltetra-3, 4-pyridinoporphyrazinatozinc (II) [Zn (tmtppa)] with   various anionic micelles of surfactants n- alkyl   sulfonate and sulfate (n=11, 12, 14) have been investigated   spectrophotometrically at 25 ◦C in   premicellar and postmicellar region. The results have shown that with   increasing the alkyl chain length of surfactants, the maximum absorbance of Zn (tmtppa)   shifted to a higher wavelength and binding affinity of Zn (tmtppa) to anionic micelles   increases. This confirms that the surfactant micelle, which has   a longer alkyl hydrocarbon chain, enables greater solubilization of   porphyrazine. Thus, the hydrophobic interaction of the porphyrazine with   micelles increases in the order:
 C11H23SO3Na   < C12H25SO4Na < C14H29SO3Na..

description: Reaction of copper perchlorate with sodium nitrite and pyrazine in   methanol gives rise to the compound [Cu2(pyrazine)3(CH3O)2](ClO4)2 (1). This complex has been   characterized through IR, combustion analysis, single crystal X-ray   diffraction, and temperature dependent magnetic susceptibility measurements.   Compound 1 crystallizes in the   triclinic space group P-1 with the copper coordination geometry being nearly   square pyramidal.  The Cu(II) ions are   bridged by the methoxide ions to form a dimeric structure.  Compound 1 exhibits an extended 3-D network with pyrazine rings forming   sheets of the copper dimers, and bridging those sheets to form a distorted   honeycomb. Magnetic susceptibility measurements show a strong   antiferromagnetic exchange within the methoxy-bridged copper dimers with 2J ~   -880K.

description: The oxidation of glycollic, lactic, malic and a few substituted mandelic acids by quinolinium chlorochromate (QCC) in dimethylsulphoxide (DMSO) leads to the formation of corresponding oxoacids. The reaction is first order each in QCC. Michaelies-Menten type of kinetics is observed with respect to the hydroxy acids. Reaction is failed to induce the polymerisation of acrylonitrile. The oxidation of a‑deuteriomandelic acid shows the presence of a primary kinetic isotope effect (kH/kD = 5.75 at 298 K). The reaction does not exhibit the solvent isotope effect The reaction is catalysed by the hydrogen ions. The hydrogen ion dependence has the form: kobs = a + b [H+]. Oxidation of p-methyl mandelic acid has been studied in 19 different organic solvents. The solvent effect has been analysed by using Kamlet’s and Swain’s multiparametric equations. A mechanism involving a hydride ion transfer via a chromate ester is proposed.

Year: 2013

description: The electrochemical behavior of dibenzoyl ferrocene was investigated by cyclic voltammetry in the temperature range 303–333K in the DMSO, DMF and DMA. The experimental results indicated that the redox reaction was quasi-reversible. Mass transport towards the electrode is a simple diffusion process and the diffusion coefficient (D) for redox couple has been also calculated for all the solvents. The diffusion coefficient is sensitive to the viscosity, dipolarizibilty and temperature of the system. These results indicated that the ko  and D increase in the following order of solvent DMSO< DMA< DMF.

description: In the present study, a naturally occurring clay mineral,   Montmorillonite, (Mt) has been explored as a carrier for an antihypertensive   drug, Atenolol. The effect of pH, time and initial drug concentration on drug   loading capacity of Mt has been evaluated. The adsorption isotherm was fitted by the Langmuir   model and follows the pseudo-second-order kinetics. The synthesized Mt-Atenolol   complexes were characterized by XRD, FTIR, TGA, DSC etc.  XRD data indicates the intercalation of   Atenolol within the Mt layers. The release profile of the Atenolol from   Mt-Atenolol complexes is compared with the pure Atenolol, in simulated   gastric and intestinal fluids. The release behaviour of Atenolol from MT-Atenolol   Complexes appears to be in sustained manner over a period of 24 hours and   reaches upto 40% and 27% in simulated gastric and intestinal fluids   respectively. As compared to pure Atenolol, extended gastric retention time   was observed for Atenolol-Mt complexes  indicative of the increased extent of absorption and bioavailability of   the drug.  Various kinetic   models were used to elucidate the drug release mechanism, the best fitting   was found for Higuchi and Korsmeyer-Peppas model. The synthesized Atenolol-Mt   complexes have the potential for developing in to a  sustained release formulation for oral drug delivery. Thus,   proposing a promising formulation for oral sustained drug delivery of   Atenolol.

description: Sleep problems are highly prevalent in autism and negatively impact the physical and mental health of children and their caregivers. Sleep education programs are often recommended as a first line-treatment to help parents implement healthy sleeping habits and a bedtime routine at home; however, the accompanying paper-based toolkits used in the bedtime routines have limitations related to engagement and adherence. To address these gaps, we iteratively developed and tested the usability of an augmented reality (AR) bedtime routine application. Our single participant design study (n = 7 child/parent dyads) found 86% compliance with the program and suggested good-excellent usability of the app with a trend toward increased willingness and faster completion of children’s bedtime routines. This work supports the feasibility of using technology-based tools in sleep education programs and informs future clinical studies examining the effectiveness of these approaches for mitigating sleep difficulties.

description: To investigate the association between preoperative nutritional scores and moderate-to-severe acute kidney injury (AKI) after coronary artery bypass graft (CABG) surgery and the predictive significance of nutritional indices for moderate to severe AKI. This study retrospectively included older patients underwent CABG surgery from the Medical Information Mart for Intensive Care (MIMIC) database. Nutritional scores were calculated by the Geriatric Nutritional Risk Index (GNRI) and the Prognostic Nutritional Index (PNI), respectively. Moderate-to-severe injury was determined by KDIGO criteria. Logistic regression, subgroup analysis, and restricted cubic splines were utilized to investigate the association. The predictive value was also assessed by the area under the curve (AUC), net reclassification index (NRI), and integrated discrimination improvement (IDI). A total of 1,007 patients were retrospectively included, of which 100 (9.9%) and 380 (37.7%) had malnutrition calculated by GNRI and PNI scores. The incidence of moderate-to-severe AKI was 524 (52.0%). After adjustment for selected risk factors, worse nutritional scores were associated with a higher incidence of moderate-to-severe AKI (PGNRI<0.001; PPNI=0.001). Integrating these indices into different base models improves their performance, as manifested by significant improvements in AUCs and NRIs (p < 0.05). Worse preoperative nutritional status was associated with an elevated risk of postoperative moderate-to-severe AKI. Integrating these indices into base models improve their predictive performance. These results highlight the importance of assessing nutritional status among older patients had CABG surgery.

description: Chronic disease progression models are available for several highly prevalent conditions. For chronic kidney disease (CKD), the scope of existing progression models is limited to the risk of kidney failure and major cardiovascular (CV) events. The aim of this project was to develop a comprehensive CKD progression model (CKD-PM) that simulates the risk of CKD progression and a broad range of complications in patients with CKD. A series of literature reviews informed the selection of risk factors and identified existing risk equations/algorithms for kidney replacement therapy (KRT), CV events, other CKD-related complications, and mortality. Risk equations and transition probabilities were primarily sourced from publications produced by large US and international CKD registries. A patient-level, state-transition model was developed with health states defined by the Kidney Disease Improving Global Outcomes categories. Model validation was performed by comparing predicted outcomes with observed outcomes in the source cohorts used in model development (internal validation) and other cohorts (external validation). The CKD-PM demonstrated satisfactory modeling properties. Accurate prediction of all-cause and CV mortality was achieved without calibration, while prediction of CV events through CKD-specific equations required implementation of a calibration factor to balance time-dependent versus baseline risk. Predicted annual changes in estimated glomerular filtration rate (eGFR) and urine albumin-creatinine ratio were acceptable in comparison to external values. A flexible eGFR threshold for KRT equations enabled accurate prediction of these events. This CKD-PM demonstrated reliable modeling properties. Both internal and external validation revealed robust outcomes.

description: In this study, we assessed the physical burden on professional caregivers when using a transfer support robot, “Hug,” to transfer and move a care recipient. We compared heart rate (HR), heart rate variability (HRV), and the time-series synchronization between HRV and respiration in caregivers using the robot or a normal wheelchair as control. Under both conditions, a commercial wearable device was used to simultaneously obtain electrocardiogram and respiration signals while performing care tasks, which comprised transfer from a bed to a wheelchair or to the robot, movement to a remote location, and transfer to a chair. We found that HR was significantly higher and HRV and wavelet coherence were significantly lower in the control than with Hug during at least the first 30 seconds of rest after the task (p < 0.05). This suggests that Hug could reduce the increase in HR and thereby maintain a more constant rhythm between HRV and respiration during care tasks. A post-task questionnaire also revealed that caregivers felt the physical burden of the tasks was reduced using Hug. Our results suggest that the introduction of transfer support robots can reduce the physical burden for caregivers of daily transfer assistance tasks.

description: The food-energy-water (FEW) nexus is increasingly emphasized and prioritized as a framework for research, technology, and policy to deal with complex socio-environmental problems. Producing food in sufficient quantity and of sufficient quality, ensuring enough but not too much water, and generating energy, all to meet human needs and desires, requires an understanding of how those goals complement or counteract one another in specific places and through specific processes. FEW nexus research focuses on understanding the interconnections among each system, in order to provide a more complete picture about the causes and consequences of changes within and across aspects of those systems. This paper synthesizes the current state of thinking and research in FEW nexus field. We first overview the systems underpinnings of the FEW nexus as a conceptual framework, and identify the assumptions, similarities and contrasts among the most cited models from current literature. Several analytical approaches – coupled systems, ecosystem services, flows and risk analysis – are emerging as key tools for conducting interdisciplinary FEW nexus research, and we identify their conceptual connections to systems thinking broadly as well as the specific assumptions that each make about the relationships among systems. Finally, based on expert consultations and assessment of current data availability, we highlight several topical areas of contemporary relevance for FEW nexus research at various scales. Characterizing the conceptual, analytical and empirical similarities and distinctions among approaches to FEW nexus research with a starting point for identifying innovative research questions and approaches.

description: Diastolic dysfunction with left ventricular hypertrophy and myocardial fibrosis is an important characteristic of uremic cardiomyopathy in end-stage kidney disease (ESKD). Few studies explored the relationship between changes in diastolic dysfunction and the risk of mortality or cardiovascular outcome in patients with ESKD. We investigated the clinical impact of diastolic dysfunction and atrial fibrillation (AF) on patients starting hemodialysis (HD). A total of 718 patients who started HD between 2010 and 2020 were included. We classified patients according to the pre- and post-HD diastolic dysfunction grades (DDG) evaluated by echocardiography. Patients with AF were classified separately. The primary outcome was a composite outcome of all-cause mortality and cardiac complication. The median age was 63 years, and 61.4% were male. Patients were divided into four groups based on pre-HD echocardiography findings. After initiating HD, the patients were classified according to changes in DDG and AF. Composite outcomes were significantly higher in the pre-HD AF groups. However, after adjusting for age and history of ischemic heart disease, pre-HD AF did not affect the composite outcomes. Patients with normal post-HD diastolic function had better outcomes than those with diastolic dysfunction or AF. Furthermore, the deterioration of diastolic dysfunction after HD was associated with an increased risk of composite outcomes. The deterioration of diastolic dysfunction and newly development of AF after initiating HD were identified as risk factors for mortality and cardiac complications, supporting the clinical importance of the appropriate management of diastolic dysfunction and AF in patients with ESKD.

description: Peritoneal fibrosis is a serious complication of long-term peritoneal dialysis, often resulting in functional deterioration and withdrawal from therapy. Mesenchymal stem cells (MSCs) have demonstrated immunomodulatory and antifibrotic effects in various models. This meta-analysis evaluated the efficacy of MSCs therapy in animal models of peritoneal fibrosis. A comprehensive search of PubMed, the Cochrane Library, Web of Science, and EMBASE was conducted for studies published up to April 27, 2024. Two independent reviewers (LQZ and WMC) screened studies for inclusion, extracted data, and analyzed outcomes using RevMan 5.3 and STATA 17.0. Fifteen studies met the inclusion criteria. MSC therapy significantly reduced inflammatory cytokines, including IL-6, TGF-β (SMD = −1.79, 95% CI: −2.32, −1.25, p < 0.00001), and TNF-α (SMD = −1.57, 95% CI: −2.71, −0.44, p = 0.006) levels. Additionally, MSCs reduced submesothelial thickness (MD = −63.14, 95% CI: −78.52, −47.76, p < 0.00001), Collagen I and Collagen III levels. MSCs treatment also improved ultrafiltration capacity (MD = 1.21, 95% CI: 0.64, 1.77, p < 0.0001), D/D0 of glucose and E-cadherin levels. However, no significant differences were observed in VEGF, D/P of Na, D/P of BUN, D/P of protein, or glucose mass transfer between the MSCs treatment group and the control group. MSC therapy significantly improves peritoneal function and attenuates fibrotic and inflammatory responses in animal models. These findings highlight the potential of MSCs as a promising therapeutic strategy for managing peritoneal fibrosis in clinical settings.

description: The Oxidation of six aliphatic aldehydes by quinolinium chlorochromate (QCC) in dimethyl sulfoxide (DMSO) leads to the formation of corresponding carboxylic acids.  The reaction is first order each in QCC. A Michaelis-Menten type of kinetics is observed with respect to the aldehydes. The reaction is catalysed by hydrogen ions, the hydrogen‑ion dependence has the form: kobs = a + b[H+].  The oxidation of deuteriated acetaldehyde, MeCDO, exhibited a substantial primary kinetic isotope effect (kH/kD = 5.78 at 298 K). The oxidation of acetaldehyde has been studied in nineteen different organic solvents. The solvent effect has been analysed using Taft's and Swain's multiparametric equations. The rate constants correlate well with Taft’s s* values; reaction constants being negative. A mechanism involving transfer of hydride ion has been suggested.

description: Acute kidney injury (AKI) and acute kidney disease (AKD) are prevalent among pediatric patients, both linked to increased mortality and extended hospital stays. Early detection of kidney injury is crucial for improving outcomes. This study presents a machine learning-based risk prediction model for AKI and AKD in pediatric patients, enabling personalized risk predictions. Data from 2,346 hospitalized pediatric patients, collected between January 2020 and January 2023, were divided into an 85% training set and a 15% test set. Predictive models were constructed using eight machine learning algorithms and two ensemble algorithms, with the optimal model identified through AUROC. SHAP was used to interpret the model, and an online prediction tool was developed with Streamlit to predict AKI and AKD. The incidence of AKI and AKD were 14.90% and 16.26%, respectively. Patients with AKD combined with AKI had the highest mortality rate, at 6.94%, when analyzed by renal function trajectories. The LightGBM algorithm showed superior predictive performance for both AKI and AKD (AUROC: 0.813, 0.744). SHAP identified top predictors for AKI as serum creatinine, white blood cell count, neutrophil count, and lactate dehydrogenase, while key predictors for AKD included proton pump inhibitor, blood glucose, hemoglobin, and AKI grade. The high incidence of AKI and AKD among hospitalized children warrants attention. Renal function trajectories are strongly associated with prognosis. Supported by a web-based tool, machine learning models can effectively predict AKI and AKD, facilitating early identification of high-risk pediatric patients and potentially improving outcomes.

description: Graphene-family nanomaterials (GFNs) belong to the group of carbon-based synthetic nanomaterial, which are already on the market in multiple variants. Graphene nanoplatelets (GNPs) thereby represent special nanostructures with nanothickness and interesting multifunctional properties, e.g. improvement of mechanical strength and conductivity of composite materials. Currently, existing data do not point to excessive toxicity of GNPs, but meaningful data are scarce and need expansion for proper risk assessment. In the PLATOX project, funded by the European FP7 SIINN ERA-NET program on Nanosafety, typical, commercially available GNPs (ACS Material) were selected, comprising single layer graphene and graphene oxide, multilayer and carboxyl graphene, and graphite oxide nanoplatelets. The GNPs were first analyzed regarding sterility/endotoxin content, morphology (SEM pictures) and specific surface (BET method). Primary rat alveolar macrophages (AM) and human MRC-5 lung fibroblast cells were used as in vitro screening models to detect cell-type specific toxicity. Membrane damage (LDH release) and metabolic activity (AlamarBlue test) served as first screening endpoints. For cell exposure, GNPs were suspended in culture medium by ultrasonication and doses on a µg/cm 2 basis. But, OD600 measurements subsequently showed that the GNPs exhibited unequal sedimentation kinetics, thus limiting comparison of toxic effects on a mass basis. Furthermore, the assays had to be strongly adapted to GNPs, due to e.g. LDH binding to GNPs and disturbance of photometric measurements. In AM, the single layer GNPs GN1P0005 and GN1PF010 markedly enhanced LDH release after 24h of incubation (BMD30 values: 3.22 and 2.47 µg/cm 2 ). Enhancement in LDH release was also observed for single layer graphite oxide (GN0S0010; BMD30: 39.25 µg/cm 2 ) and experimental pristine GNPs (BMD30: 45 µg/cm 2 ). All other materials were nearly inactive. In contrast, no such effect was evident in MRC-5 cells. Significant effects on metabolic function were absent. But in AM, single layer GNPs furthermore induced DNA damage and PGE 2 release. In conclusion, in vitro, single layer GNPs seem to possess (geno)toxic potential in AM, but not in fibroblasts. Notably, in-vitro assays for hazard estimation of GNPs have to be carefully validated to ensure meaningful data.
