    Abstract Electrochemical oxidation of 5-hydroxymethylfurfural (HMF) into 2,5-furandicarboxylic acid (FDCA) is a highly promising strategy for producing biomass-based valuable chemicals. Exploration of robust and cost-effective electrocatalysts for HMF oxidation is of significant importance. Here, we proposed a facile and controllable strategy for the preparation of carbon-based heterostructures by direct pyrolysis of rationally designed precursor deep eutectic solvents. The as-prepared Co₉S₈–Ni₃S₂@N,S,O-tri-doped carbon (NSOC) heterostructures exhibit an excellent HMF electrooxidation performance with a conversion of nearly 100%, a Faraday efficiency of 98.6% and a selectivity of 98.8% owing to the unique hollow structure and ternary heterogeneous interface. X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy analysis and theoretical calculations confirm the electron transfer from Ni₃S₂ to NSOC and Co₉S₈ at the heterogeneous interfaces, where hole accumulation on Ni₃S₂ is beneficial for optimizing the HMF electrooxidation reaction (HMF EOR).

    Abstract In order to study the instability development process of the slope reinforced by anti-slide piles under earthquake conditions, the dynamic response characteristics of the slope are usually taken as the main characteristics, and the model test and numerical simulation are the main research methods. In this paper, a shaking table model test is designed and completed to investigate the influence of anti-slide piles with different initial damage on the failure mode of high and steep slope under earthquake conditions. The changes in velocity, strain and natural frequency during slope vibration are tested in combination with cloud maps when sinusoidal waves of different accelerations with a peak value of 5 Hz are applied. Thus, the differences of slope failure development process and dynamic response characteristics are obtained. The experimental results show that the anti-slide pile with different initial damage has obvious influence on the slope instability process. Under the condition of good anti-slide pile quality, the failure development of the slope behind the pile is limited to soil sliding on top of the slope, slope sliding and overburden sliding; the front slope foot of pile mainly forms shear belt and local sliding. With the decrease in the initial mass of the anti-slide pile, the slope failure develops into topsoil sliding, slope sliding and deep integral sliding; analogously, the failure of the slope in front of the pile develops into a whole slip along the slip belt. The natural frequency cloud map can directly reflect the damage location of the slope, and the frequency change rate is positively correlated with the cumulative shear strain. It shows that the macro-failure characteristics of the model slope change well when the natural frequency is used as the sensitive index to measure the influence of vibration on the model slope. The threshold value of the natural frequency change rate can distinguish different development stages of the slope; 1% is the threshold value of stage II, and 1.5% is the threshold value of stage III.

    Abstract Objective: This meta-analysis is aimed at systematically assessing the efficacy and prognosis of hemodialysis (HD) and peritoneal dialysis (PD) in the treatment of end-stage renal disease (ESRD).
    Methods: China National Knowledge Infrastructure, VIP, SinoMed, Cochrane Library, PubMed, and Embase databases were searched for relevant studies to evaluate the two different dialysis methods for ESRD. The search time was set from 2010 to 2021. Meta-analysis was performed using Stata16.0. The treatment group received PD, while the control group was given HD.
    Results: Out of 317 articles initially retrieved, 14 studies were finally included in our meta-analysis. The analysis results showed that there was no marked difference in the 1-year survival rate between the two groups (RR = 1.05; 95% CI: 1.00, 1.10;
    Conclusion: In summary, both PD and HD can improve renal function in uremic patients, but PD is superior to HD in reducing the incidence of adverse reactions, improving the nutritional status, and therefore improving the quality of life of patients.

    Abstract Background: Epigenetic alterations play an important role in hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) development. Enhancer of zeste homolog 2 (EZH2) is a well-known epigenetic modifier that functions as an oncogene in tumors by promoting the H3K27me3-mediated transcriptional repression of tumor suppressor genes. "Senescent cells" has been proposed as a possible core component of the hallmarks of cancer conceptualization. Induction of cell senescence and targeted elimination of these senescent tumor cells are new strategies for tumor therapy. However, the role of EZH2 in regulating cellular senescence remains poorly understood.
    Methods: Bioinformatics analyses suggested that EZH2 and DNA topoisomerase II alpha (TOP2A) are coexpressed in tumors, including HCC. Kyoto Encyclopedia of Genes and Genome (KEGG) pathway enrichment analyses and gene set enrichment analyses (GSEA) suggests a correlation of EZH2 and TOP2A expression with cellular senescence in HCC. MicroRNA (miRNA) inhibitor and mimics, siRNA, PLKO-shRNA, and plenti6.3-miR-139 were used to upregulate or downregulate the expression of target genes. CCK8, EdU, clone formation, and senescence-associated β-galactosidase (SA-β-gal) staining assays were performed to assess cell proliferation and cellular senescence phenotypes. Dual-luciferase reporter and chromatin immunoprecipitation assays were performed to investigate the targeted binding and inhibition of TOP2A 3' untranslated region (UTR) by miR-139-5p and the DNA enrichment of miR139-5p by EZH2 and H3K27me3. BALB/c nude mice were used to establish a xenograft tumor model and verify the phenotypes upon EZH2 and TOP2A silencing and miR-139 overexpression in vivo. In addition, tissue microarrays were used to analyze the expression patterns and correlations among EZH2, TOP2A, and miR-139-5p expression in HCC.
    Results: Bioinformatics analysis revealed that EZH2 and TOP2A are coexpressed in HCC. In vitro gain- and loss-of-function experiments showed that inhibition of EZH2 and TOP2A induces cellular senescence and inhibits proliferation of HCC cells. In vivo tumorigenesis assays indicated that EZH2 and TOP2A knockdown inhibits tumorigenesis by inducing cellular senescence. Mechanistically, EZH2 promotes TOP2A expression by regulating the H3K27me3-mediated epigenetic silencing of miR-139-5p. TOP2A is a direct target of miR-139-5p, and inhibition of miR-139-5p can reverse the promotion by EZH2 of TOP2A expression. The overexpression of miR-139-5p induces cellular senescence and inhibits proliferation of HCC cells both in vitro and in vivo. Clinically, expression of EZH2 and TOP2A are higher in HCC tissues than in normal tissues, and this high coexpression indicates a worse outcome of patients with HCC. Moreover, expression of EZH2 and TOP2A is significantly correlated with tumor differentiation grade, tumor invasion, and TNM stage in HCC. miR-139-5p expression is lower in HCC tumors than in normal tissues and is correlated with better prognosis of HCC patients.
    Conclusions: Our study revealed the role of the EZH2/miR-139-5p/TOP2A axis in regulating cellular senescence and cell proliferation in HCC, enriching the molecular mechanisms of EZH2-mediated epigenetic regulation in HCC. Therefore, our results provide insight into the therapeutic potential of targeting EZH2 to induce cellular senescence and then destroy senescent cells for HCC.

    Abstract Position-sensitive detectors (PSDs) based on the lateral photovoltaic effect (LPE) are widely used for precision displacement and angle measurement. However, high temperatures can lead to the thermal decomposition or oxidation of nanomaterials frequently utilized in PSDs, and can ultimately affect the performance. In this study, we present a PSD based on Ag/nanocellulose/Si that maintains a maximum sensitivity of 416.52 mV/mm, even at elevated temperatures. By encapsulating nanosilver in a nanocellulose matrix, the device demonstrates excellent stability and performance over a wide temperature range from 300 to 450 K. Its performance can be comparable to that of room temperature PSDs. An approach that uses nanometals to regulate optical absorption and the local electric field overcomes carrier recombination due to nanocellulose, enabling a breakthrough in sensitivity for organic PSDs. The results indicate that the LPE in this structure is dominated by local surface plasmon resonance, presenting opportunities for expanding optoelectronics in high-temperature industrial environments and monitoring applications. The proposed PSD offers a simple, fast, and cost-effective solution for real-time laser beam monitoring, and its high-temperature stability makes it ideal for a wide range of industrial applications.

    Abstract Levulinic acid (LA), one of the top 10 most promising biomass-derived platform molecules, is a versatile compound, and can be transformed into diverse value-added chemicals. In the valorization of LA to various valuable chemicals, conversion of LA into N-containing functional chemicals is an emerging and rapidly developing topic. For the synthesis of N-containing functional chemicals using LA as the building block, significant progress had been achieved in recent years and further progress would be achieved in the near future. This review article focused on the selective conversion of LA into a series of N-containing chemicals by fully considering the molecular structure of LA. A reasonable outlook is provided in the last section to highlight the challenges and opportunities for upgrading of LA to various N-containing functional chemicals.

    Abstract High-entropy materials, a new class of alloys that incorporate five or more principal elements into single-phase crystal structures, have received considerable interest in materials science and engineering. Considering the tailored composition and disordered configuration, these high-entropy materials may arouse functional synergism towards electrocatalysis. Here, a new strategy for preparing high-entropy metal phosphides (HEMPs) was developed by a eutectic solvent method. The as-prepared HEMP possessed a single metal phosphide phase with up to five homogenously distributed metal components. The versatile application of high-entropy materials was highlighted by integrating the HEMP catalyst into a two-electrode configuration for electrocatalytic water splitting.
