Diagnostic Accuracy of Size‐Based Preoperative CT Assessment for Predicting Lymph Node Metastasis in Colon Cancer: A Systematic Review and Meta‐Analysis

Annals of Gastroenterological Surgery, EarlyView.
Preoperative CT based on lymph node size shows moderate accuracy for detecting nodal metastasis in colon cancer. In this meta‐analysis of 29 studies (5,634 patients), pooled sensitivity and specificity were 0.69 and 0.66. Size‐based CT alone has limited value for clinical decision‐making.

A Chiral Saddle‐Shaped Nanographene With Two Heptagon‐Embedded [4]Helicenes

Angewandte Chemie International Edition, EarlyView.
We present a novel synthetic strategy toward a chiral saddle‐shaped nanographene (cSNG) via a two‐step oxidation of a prochiral anthracene precursor. The Scholl‐type oxidation first yields a key intermediate with sp3‐defect heptagons, and subsequent oxidative dehydrogenation affords fully conjugated cSNG.

The Effect of Sintering Flue Gas Composition on NO Reduction in Coke

Asia-Pacific Journal of Chemical Engineering, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT The strategy of substituting combustion air with sintering flue gas in circulating fluidized bed (CFB) systems provides a low‐cost and highly efficient approach for the purification of sintering off‐gas. In this work, coke was employed as the reducing agent, and a high‐temperature vertical tube furnace was used to simulate the dense‐phase ...

Human Fibroblast‐Myeloid cell tissue atlas across lung, synovium, skin and heart

Arthritis &Rheumatology, Accepted Article.
Background The availability of single‐cell RNA sequencing (scRNAseq data) in different tissues and disease states provides an opportunity to compare cellular subsets and identify common and unique cellular activation. In this study, we aimed to characterize shared and tissue‐specific myeloid and stromal phenotypes and to uncover key cellular subtypes ...
