The Diagnostic and Treatment Protocol for COVID-19 (Trial Version 6) in China recommends chloroquine phosphate for the first time as an anti-coronavirus trial drug. As a classic drug for…[Read more]

Gastric cancer (GC) is one of the most fatal cancers in the world. Results of previous studies on the association of the CpG island methylator phenotype (CIMP) with GC prognosis are conflicting and mainly based on selected CIMP markers. The current study attempted to comprehensively assess the association between CIMP status and GC survival and to…[Read more]

The reverse water gas shift reaction is a promising approach to solve the problem of excessive CO2 emission and energy shortage. However, insufficient charge separation efficiency of numerous semiconductor photocatalysts hamper their CO2 photoreduction performance. Defect engineering is considered as a desired method to tackle that shortcoming by…[Read more]

8). For questionnaire formats, paper had the highest RR at 86%±19.4, a mix of electronic and paper had the second highest at 71%±15.1 and the electronic-only format had a substantially lower RR at 42%±8.7. Sending one reminder (82%±16.5) or more than one reminder (76%±20.9) to non-responders resulted in a higher RR than sending no reminders (39%…[Read more]

Melatonin is a natural hormone from the pineal gland that regulates the sleep-wake cycle. We examined the structure and physico-chemical properties of melatonin using electronic structure methods and molecular-mechanics tools. Density functional theory (DFT) was used to optimise the ground-state geometry of the molecule from frontier molecular…[Read more]
