Design of New Borates with Deep Ultraviolet Transparency Inspired by the Flexibility of Unusual Triple-Layered Frameworks

Borates with a layered framework are promising and charming in linear and nonlinear optics. In this study, the flexibility of an unusual triple-layered B–O framework was explored systemically. It was found that the framework is flexible enough to accommodate diverse alkali metal cations, making it steerable to regular unit arrangement and optical properties. Accordingly, a new borate K11NaB28O48, which displays a deep ultraviolet cutoff edge (<190 nm), was designed and synthesized by the method of a high-temperature solution. Moreover, Na3B7O12 and K3B7O12 with a triple-layered framework were designed through theoretical prediction, proving the flexibility of the framework and the regulatory effect of cations. This work presents a feasible strategy for exploring optical materials based on the flexibility of a layered framework

EDTA-Assisted Synthesis of Nitrogen-Doped Carbon Nanospheres with Uniform Sizes for Photonic and Electrocatalytic Applications

We report a robust method for the facile synthesis of N-doped carbon nanospheres with uniform and tunable sizes. Instead of involving a surfactant or other templates, this synthesis relies on the incorporation of ethylenediamine­tetraacetic acid (EDTA) into the emulsion droplets of phenolic resin oligomers. The EDTA provides a high density of surface charges to effectively increase the electrostatic repulsion between the droplets and thereby prevent them from coalescing into irregular structures during polymerization-induced hardening. The EDTA-loaded polymer nanospheres are highly uniform in terms of both size and shape for easy crystallization into opaline structures. While maintaining good uniformity, the diameters of the resultant N-doped carbon nanospheres can be readily tuned from 100 to 375 nm, allowing for the fabrication of opaline lattices with brilliant structural colors. The EDTA also serves as an additional nitrogen source to promote the formation of graphitic-N, making the N-doped carbon nanospheres highly active, metal-free bifunctional electrocatalysts toward oxygen reduction and oxygen evolution reactions

DataSheet_1_The Association Between Antidiabetic Agents and Clinical Outcomes of COVID-19 Patients With Diabetes: A Bayesian Network Meta-Analysis.docx

AimsThis study aimed to assess the impact of different antidiabetic agents on individuals with diabetes and COVID-19.MethodsWe searched PubMed, Web of Science, Embase, and Cochrane Library databases from inception to October 31, 2021 and included seven antidiabetic agents. The data were pooled via traditional pairwise meta-analysis and Bayesian network meta-analysis.ResultsThe pairwise meta-analysis included 35 studies. Metformin (odds ratio (OR), 0.74; P=0.001), dipeptidyl peptidase-4 inhibitors (DPP4i) (OR, 0.88; P=0.04), sodium-glucose cotransporter-2 inhibitors (SGLT2i) (OR, 0.82; P=0.001), and glucagon-like peptide-1 receptor agonists (GLP1RA) (OR, 0.91; P=0.02) treatment were associated with lower COVID-19 mortality in individuals with diabetes compared to respective non-users. However, insulin treatment resulted in higher mortality (OR, 1.8; P=0.001). Mortality did not significantly differ in sulfonylurea (OR, 0.97; P=0.56) and thiazolidinediones (TZDs) (OR, 1.00; P=0.96) users. Furthermore, due to limited data, we analyzed five antidiabetic agents (metformin, DPP4i, sulfonylurea, insulin, and SGLT2i) and found no association between them and severe disease risk (all P>0.05). The Bayesian network meta-analysis included 18 studies. GLP1RA and SGLT2i had the highest first and second rank probability (67.3% and 62.5%, respectively). Insulin showed the maximum probability of ranking seventh (97.0%). Metformin had the third and fourth highest rank probability of 44.8% and 38.9%, respectively. Meanwhile, DPP4i had the fifth-highest rank probability of 42.4%, followed by sulfonylurea at 45.1%.ConclusionMetformin, DPP4i, SGLT2i, and GLP1RA treatments were highly possible to reduced COVID-19 mortality risk in individuals with diabetes, while insulin might be related to increased mortality risk. Sulfonylurea and TZDs treatments were not associated with mortality. None of the antidiabetic agents studied were associated with the risk of severe disease. Additionally, GLP1RA probably had the most significant protective effect against death, followed by SGLT2i and metformin.Systematic Review RegistrationPROSPERO (CRD42021288200)</p
