    Abstract Liquid organic hydrogen carriers (LOHCs) have gained significant attention for large-scale hydrogen storage due to their remarkable gravimetric hydrogen storage capacity (HSC) and compatibility with existing oil and gas transportation networks for long-distance transport. However, the practical application of reversible LOHC systems has been constrained by the intrinsic thermodynamic properties of hydrogen carriers and the performances of associated catalysts in the (de)hydrogenation cycles. To overcome these challenges, thermodynamically favored carriers, high-performance catalysts, and catalytic procedures need to be developed. Here, significant advances in recent years have been summarized, primarily centered on regular LOHC systems catalyzed by homogeneous and heterogeneous catalysts, including dehydrogenative aromatization of cycloalkanes to arenes and N-heterocyclics to N-heteroarenes, as well as reverse hydrogenation processes. Furthermore, with the development of metal complexes for dehydrogenative coupling, a new family of reversible LOHC systems based on alcohols is described that can release H

    Abstract Piglet diarrhea is among one of the most serious health problems faced by the pig industry, resulting in significant economic losses. Diarrheal disease in piglets has a multifactorial etiology that is affected by physiology, environment, and management strategy. Diarrhea is the most apparent symptom of intestinal dysfunction. As a key class of essential nutrients in the piglet diet, amino acids confer a variety of beneficial effects on piglets in addition to being used as a substrate for protein synthesis, including maintaining appropriate intestinal integrity, permeability and epithelial renewal, and alleviating morphological damage and inflammatory and oxidative stress. Thus, provision of appropriate levels of amino acids could alleviate piglet diarrhea. Most amino acid effects are mediated by metabolites, gut microbes, and related signaling pathways. In this review, we summarize the current understanding of dietary amino acid effects on gut health and diarrhea incidence in piglets, and reveal the mechanisms involved. We also provide ideas for using amino acid blends and emphasize the importance of amino acid balance in the diet to prevent diarrhea in piglets.

    Abstract Objectives: Patients with stroke often remain bedridden despite rehabilitation. Serum N-terminal pro-B-type natriuretic peptide (NT-pro-BNP) levels increase after stroke. Our study aimed to investigate the difference in NT-pro-BNP levels between bedridden and non-bedridden patients with stroke and to explore the factors influencing NT-pro-BNP levels in bedridden patients.
    Design: A single-centre, cross-sectional study.
    Setting: This study was conducted in a hospital, Shenzhen, China.
    Participants: Between January 2019 and December 2022, 465 participants were included in this study.
    Outcome measures: The collected data included basic information, laboratory data and echocardiographic parameters. Binary logistic regression analysis and receiver operating characteristic curves were used to identify factors associated with high NT-pro-BNP levels.
    Results: Bedridden patients with stroke had higher levels of NT-pro-BNP, D-dimer, high-sensitivity C reactive protein (hs-CRP) and lower levels of creatinine, high-density lipoprotein cholesterol, albumin and haemoglobin, as well as lower left ventricular ejection fraction, fractional shortening and the ratio between the peak velocities of early and late diastolic filling than non-bedridden patients. In bedridden patients, age ≥75 years, high levels of hs-CRP and creatinine, and low levels of albumin were associated with high NT-pro-BNP levels. In non-bedridden patients, age ≥75 years and high creatinine levels were associated with high NT-pro-BNP levels. In bedridden patients with stroke, the area under the curve (AUC) of hs-CRP was 0.700 (p<0.001, 95% CI 0.638 to 0.762) with a cut-off value of 5.12 mg/L. The AUC of albumin was 0.671 (p<0.001, 95% CI 0.606 to 0.736) with a cut-off value of 37.15 g/L.
    Conclusions: NT-pro-BNP levels were higher in bedridden patients with stroke than in non-bedridden patients. Decreased albumin and elevated hs-CRP levels were associated with high levels of NT-pro-BNP in bedridden patients. Further studies are needed to explore the risk stratification and potential treatments for elevated NT-pro-BNP in bedridden patients with stroke.

    Abstract The raw materials of Poly(ethylene terephthalate) (PET) are derived from petroleum-based resources, which are no sustainable. Therefore, previous researchers introduced biomass-derived 2,5-tetrahydrofurfuryl dimethanol (THFDM) into PET. However, its heat resistance has decreased compared to PET. In this paper, a novel bio-based copolyester, poly(ethylene glycol-co-2,5-tetrahydrofuran dimethanol-co-isosorbide terephthalate) (PEIFT), is prepared by introducing biomass-derived isosorbide (ISB) and THFDM into the PET chains through melting copolymerization process. With the introduction of ISB content, copolyesters' hydrophilicity and rigidity improve. Compared to PET, glass transition temperature (T

    Abstract AbstractThe Karakoram Highway (KKH) is a pivotal gateway within the framework of the China-Pakistan Economic Corridor. Nevertheless, its distinct and intricate geographical characteristics make it susceptible to recurrent landslides. As an essential tool, landslide susceptibility mapping (LSM) is significant in managing and alleviating landslides near the KKH. Moreover, landslide conditioning factors (LCFs) are crucial determinants influencing the outcomes of LSM. However, existing methods primarily rely on machine learning algorithms, which do not adequately account for the intricate spatial characteristics and patterns between LCFs and landslide occurrences. In response, this study introduces the feature fusion transformer (FFTR) module, constructed based on the foundations of the transformer framework, to fuse the spatial information features of all LCFs. Subsequently, the abstract high-level spatial features obtained are fed into diverse machine learning classifiers, including random forest (RF), extreme gradient boosting (XGBoost), gradient boosting decision trees (GBDT), categorical boosting (CatBoost), and extremely randomized trees (ET), to generate landslide susceptibility maps. Displacement velocity calculated by Persistent Scatterer Interferometric Synthetic Aperture Radar (PSInSAR) is incorporated in the LSM. The results demonstrate that FFTR-RF achieves premium performance in the area under the curve (AUC) (94%), accuracy (87.31%), precision (87.21%), recall (88.02%), and F1-score (87.61%). Incorporating displacement velocity into LSM results predicted by models enhances the comprehensiveness of LSM. These methods will furnish early warning systems for landslide disasters along the KKH, thus aiding recommendations for mitigating landslides’ social and economic losses.

    Abstract Rocking piers using ultra-high-performance concrete (UHPC) have high damage-control capacity and self-centering characteristics that can limit the post-earthquake recovery time of bridges. To study the hysteretic behavior of UHPC rocking piers, a lumped plasticity model is proposed that comprises two parallel rotational springs and which can accurately calculate their force-displacement hysteretic behavior. Three states of the rocking piers, decompression, yield, and large deformation, are considered in this study. The model is verified based on existing experimental results, and the hysteretic characteristics of the UHPC rocking piers, such as strength, stiffness, and energy dissipation, are further analyzed. The research results show that the lumped plasticity analysis model proposed in this study can predict the force-displacement hysteretic behavior of the rocking piers accurately. Moreover, the hysteretic performance of the UHPC rocking piers is better than that of rocking piers using normal-strength concrete. An increase in the energy dissipation reinforcement ratio, pre-stressed tendon ratio, and initial pre-stress improves the lateral stiffness and strength of the UHPC rocking piers. However, the increase in the pre-stressed tendon ratio and initial pre-stress reduces their energy-dissipation capacity.
