The rs3918188 and rs1799983 loci of eNOS gene are associated with susceptibility in patients with systemic lupus erythematosus in Northeast China.

To investigate the association between single nucleotide polymorphism (SNP) at the rs3918188, rs1799983 and rs1007311 loci of the endothelial nitric oxide synthase (eNOS) gene and genetic susceptibility to systemic lupus erythematosus (SLE) in northeastern China. The base distribution of eNOS gene rs3918188, rs1799983 and rs1007311 in 1712 human peripheral blood samples from Northeast China was detected by SNaPshot sequencing technology. The correlation between genotype, allele and gene model of these loci of the eNOS gene and the genetic susceptibility to SLE was investigated by logistic regression analysis.

Analysis of status and influencing factors of mental health in patients with systemic lupus erythematosus.

Background: Systemic lupus erythematosus (SLE) is a heterogeneous autoimmune disorder with varied clinical courses and prognoses, not only did the patients suffer from physical impairment, but also various physical and psychiatric comorbidities. Growing evidence have suggested that mental disorders in SLE patients, can lead to various adverse consequences.

Aim: To explored the features and influencing factors of mental health in patients with SLE and clarifying the correlations between mental health and personality characteristics and perceived social support.

Exploring the Relationship between ACE Gene Variants and Systemic Lupus Erythematosus Susceptibility in the Hainan Population through Genetic Association Analysis.

Background: The purpose of this study was to determine the association between single nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) at the rs4331, rs4341, and rs4351 loci of the angiotensinconverting enzyme (ACE) gene and genetic susceptibility to systemic lupus erythematosus (SLE) in the Hainan population.

Methods: This study involved a total of 428 participants, with 214 individuals diagnosed with SLE and an equal number of healthy controls. The SNaPshot sequencing technique was used to determine the base sequences at the ACE gene rs4331, rs4341, and rs4351 loci in the study subjects.

An autotransferable alloy overlayer toward stable sodium metal anodes.

Sodium (Na) metal anodes receive significant attention due to their high theoretical specific energy and cost-effectiveness. However, the high reactivity of Na foil anodes and the irregular surfaces have posed challenges to the operability and reliability of Na metals in battery applications. In the absence of inert environmental protection conditions, constructing a uniform, dense, and sodiophilic Na metal anode surface is crucial for homogenizing Na deposition, but remains less-explored.

Influence of Early Cluster Nursing Intervention on Nursing Efficacy and Adverse Events in Patients with Severe Traumatic Brain Injury.

Patients with severe traumatic brain injury (sTBI) are at risk of adverse events (AEs) during hospitalization, and providing nursing interventions can help reduce the negative impact of AEs. This study primarily discusses the influence of early cluster nursing intervention on nursing efficacy and AEs in patients with sTBI. We enrolled 109 sTBI patients treated in the First Affiliated Hospital of Shanghai Jiao Tong University School of Medicine between October 2022 to June 2023.

Correlation of single nucleotide polymorphisms in the AGT gene with susceptibility to systemic lupus erythematosus in Northeast China.

To investigate the correlation between susceptibility to systemic lupus erythematosus (SLE) and single nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) rs699, rs4762 and rs1926723 in the AGT gene in the population of Northeast China, while also introducing a new method for early detection of SLE. A total of 856 cases of SLE patients and healthy volunteers who attended the First Affiliated Hospital of Harbin Medical University from January 2020 to December 2022 were recruited. Clinical information and biood samples were collected from particpants in this study.

Downregulation of miR-137 Facilitates CD4+ T Cell Pyroptosis in Systemic Lupus Erythematosus via Stimulating AMPK Pathway.

Objective: From the pathogenic mechanism point of view, systemic lupus erythematosus (SLE) features prominently in T lymphocyte apoptosis. Yet the regulatory mechanism underlying SLE cell apoptosis remains to be explored. This research intends to clarify the role played by miR-137 in SLE and the underlying mechanisms.

IL-33/ST2 Activation Is involved in Ro60-Regulated Photosensitivity in Cutaneous Lupus Erythematosus.

Interleukin- (IL-) 33 contributes to various inflammatory processes. IL-33/ST2 activation participates in systemic lupus erythematous via binding to the receptor of Suppression of Tumorigenicity 2 protein (ST2). However, whether IL-33/ST2 interferes with the nosogenesis of cutaneous lupus erythematosus (CLE) has not been reported so far.

In Situ Induced Lattice-Matched Interfacial Oxygen-Passivation-Layer Endowing Li-Rich and Mn-Based Cathodes with Ultralong Life.

The high capacity of Li-rich and Mn-based (LRM) cathode materials is originally due to the unique hybrid anion- and cation redox, which also induces detrimental oxygen escape. Furthermore, the counter diffusion of released oxygen (into electrolyte) and induced oxygen vacancies (into the interior bulk phase) that occurs at the interface will cause uncontrolled phase collapse and other issues. Therefore, due to its higher working voltage (>4.

Investigating the Molecular Mechanism of Xijiao Dihuang Decoction for the Treatment of SLE Based on Network Pharmacology and Molecular Docking Analysis.

Objective: To elucidate the main mechanism of Xijiao Dihuang decoction (XJDHT) for the treatment of systemic lupus erythematosus (SLE).

Methods: TCMSP, BATMAN-TCM, ETCM, and TCMID databases and literature search were used to screen the potential active compounds of XJDHT, and TCMSP and SwissProt databases were searched to predict the targets of the compounds. The targets of SLE were obtained from Genegards, OMIM, and DisGeNET databases, and Venn online platform was used to obtain the intersection targets of XJDHT and SLE.

Sputtering Coating of Lithium Fluoride Film on Lithium Cobalt Oxide Electrodes for Reducing the Polarization of Lithium-Ion Batteries.

Lithium cobalt oxide (LCO) is the most widely used cathode materials in electronic devices due to the high working potential and dense tap density, but the performance is limited by the unstable interfaces at high potential. Herein, LiF thin film is sputtered on the surface of LCO electrodes for enhancing the electrochemical performance and reducing the voltage polarization. The polarization components are discussed and quantified by analyzing the relationship between electrochemical polarization and charger transfer resistance, as well as that between concentration polarization and Li-ion diffusion coefficients.
