    Abstract Previous breakthroughs in biosensor diagnostics stem from engineering and nanocomposites. Accurately detecting low-abundance compounds such as methotrexate in complex biospecimens (e.g. serum) is an important clinical challenge. To address this issue, a MWCNTs-doped MXene-based multi-spiral-channel field-effect transistor (MMSFETs) biosensor was constructed for ultrasensitive quantification of methotrexate. Our integrated biosensor exhibited following merits: a) The synergetic performance of MXene and MWCNTs for enhanced transconductance (0.63 mS) and detection capability (methotrexate, linear range of 0.001–100 μM and LOD down to 0.352 nM); b) Favorable selectivity, stability (one month), reproducibility (RSD = 0.99%, n = 7) for biosensing of methotrexate; c) Acceptable clinical performances on comparisons of MMFETs against commercial Abbott automatic immunoluminescence instrument (ARCHITECT I1000): favorable linearity and correlation coefficient (YMMSFETs = 1.4305 × Xtargeted concentration + 4.3791 with R2 = 0.949), significant p value (7.68E-12 < 0.001) and diagnosis capability of AUC (0.9907). Those advantages are anticipated to pave an avenue to design of the FETs-based biosensor towards the point-of-care diagnostics applications.

    Abstract Personalized ventilation (PV) has been integrated to reduce the risk of interpersonal infection exposure in the office environment. Some studies showed that PV systems may increase occupants’ risk of airborne infection. Therefore, the aim of this study is to investigate the intervention of PV on interpersonal airborne disease transmission in office environment. A three-dimensional computational fluid dynamics model (CFD) was developed and experimentally validated in a clean chamber. Then the validated CFD model was used to calculate the diffusion of exhaled droplets under different particle size. Results showed at the size of 0.7μm particles, compared to pure mixing ventilation, the personal ventilation of 6L/s reduced the inhalation fraction (IF)from 0.121% to 0.092%,and the reduction ratio of IF is 23.96%. As of 5μm, the IF also decreased from 0.165% to 0.102%, and the reduction ratio of IF is 38.18%. The percentage of 50μm particles deposited on the ground rises from 6.29% to 43.22% of exhaled particles. Therefore, the personalized ventilation can reduce the risk of inhalation in exposed person, and for large size particles, the number of particles falling on the floor increased greatly, which lead to the risk of resuspension increases. The results may be helpful for maximizing the effect of PV in interpersonal airborne disease control.

    Abstract An ultrathin micro-patterned MXene/PEDOT:PSS-based organic electrochemical transistor biosensor was constructed, which can significantly amplify the amperometric signal and transistor's performance. A novel interdigitated OECTs biosensor has been developed for reliable determination of survivin for the following considerations: (1) The synergistic effect of intercalated MXene and ionic PEDOT:PSS enhanced the mobility and volumetric capacitance of OECTs biosensor. (2) Compared with the best previous literatures, our assay demonstrated enhanced detection limit of survivin down to 10 pg mL

    Abstract Semi-transparent photovoltaic double skin façade (STPV-DSF) is a novel structure which integrates photoelectric, photothermal, ventilation and energy-saving features, which proves to be extremely attractive and promising. In this study, a full-scale experimental system was built, airflow and heat transfer in a rectangular cavity with different transmittance (τ) and different ventilation modes in summer that studies a STPV-DSF and includes natural ventilation were examined experimentally. The Rayleigh number and Nusselt number of STPV-DSF is significantly higher than that of traditional DSF. This also means stronger intense flow. And the maximum temperature difference at night between mode 1 and mode 2 can reach 7.3°C. When the external air circulation mode is switched to the external and internal mode, the indoor temperature drops by 2.88°C in ten minutes. Therefore, making fully use of natural ventilation can effectively reduce the cooling load of air conditioning in summer. The solar radiation intensity is proved to have the greatest influence on the cavity temperature, followed by the transmittance, and the the ventilation mode least influence. Applying naturally ventilated STPV-DSF would be a new efficient way for the curtain wall buildings to meet the task of sustainable building design.

    Abstract Purpose: The Geriatric Nutrition Risk Index (GNRI) is a simple and validated tool used to assess the nutritional status of elderly patients and predict the risk of short-term postoperative complications, as well as the long-term prognosis, after cancer surgery. In this study, we aimed to evaluate the predictive value of GNRI for the long-term postoperative prognosis in elderly patients with primary non-muscle-invasive bladder cancer (NMIBC) who underwent transurethral resection of bladder tumor (TURBT).
    Methods: We retrospectively analyzed data from 292 elderly patients with primary NMIBC. Using X-tile software, we divided the cohort into two groups based on GNRI and determined the cut-off value for postoperative recurrence-free survival (RFS). Propensity score matching (PSM) with a ratio of 1:3, Kaplan-Meier analysis, log-rank test, and COX proportional hazards regression were used to assess the correlation between GNRI and prognosis and identify factors predicting recurrence and progression.
    Results: In the entire cohort, the 3 year recurrence group had significantly lower GNRI compared to the 3 year non-recurrence group (P = 0.0109). The determined GNRI cut-off value was 93.82. After PSM, the low GNRI group had significantly lower RFS (P < 0.0001) and progression-free survival (PFS) (P = 0.0040) than the high GNRI group. Multivariate COX regression showed that GNRI independently predicted RFS (HR 2.108; 95% CI 1.266-3.512; P = 0.004) and PFS (HR 2.155; 95% CI 1.135-4.091; P = 0.019) in elderly patients with primary NMIBC.
    Conclusion: Preoperative GNRI is a prognostic marker for disease recurrence and progression in elderly patients with primary NMIBC undergoing TURBT.

    Abstract The induction of ferroptosis is suggested to be a potential therapeutic strategy for cancers. MicroRNAs (miRNAs) are reported to play an important role in cell death processes. This study aims to construct and validate a risk model based on ferroptosis-related miRNAs (FR_miRNAs) to predict prognosis and identify novel therapeutic targets for osteosarcoma. Data from the Therapeutically Applicable Research to Generate Effective Treatments database are used as the training cohort. A prognostic signature based on two FR_miRNAs (miR-635 and miR-593) is developed using univariate Cox regression, least absolute shrinkage and selection operator regression, and multivariate Cox regression analyses. The area under the curve values of the prognostic signature to predict the 1-year, 2-year, 3-year, and 5-year overall survival rates in patients with osteosarcoma are 0.782, 0.781, 0.722, and 0.777, respectively, indicating a good predictive ability. Based on the risk score, patients are divided into low-risk and high-risk groups. Patients with high-risk scores are associated with poor survival. The risk level is determined to be an independent prognostic factor. A nomogram is established for predicting prognosis. The expression levels of

    Abstract Reduced graphene oxide (rGO) has been studied as a possible substitute for graphene in many applications because it is cheaper and easier to prepare than graphene. RGO with low reduction degree has good hydrophilicity and can be stably dispersed in water. These properties are conducive to the preparation of hydrophilic composites. Here, the method of microwave reduction of GO suspension to prepare rGO with low reduction degree was studied. By controlling the reduction time, the rGO samples with different reduction degrees are prepared. After studying the characterization data of rGO with different reduction degrees, we propose the hypothesis of the reduction pathway of GO suspension, that is, the oxygen-containing groups on the surface of GO sheet are reduced first. FTIR, TGA and XPS data verify this hypothesis and are consistent with the simulation results. Therefore, the low reduction degree rGO has a large-area conjugated structure similar to graphene and also has good hydrophilicity due to the residual oxygen-containing groups on the periphery of the rGO sheet. This structure provides convenience for its composite with hydrophilic materials. In sum, the microwave reduction of GO suspension provides a simple method for researchers to prepare rGO with low reduction degree.
