Summary: The compound Ag-34, which contains a polyoxoniobate (PONb) template, was synthesized using the solvothermal method combined with volatilization. This is the first successful isolation of a silver cluster with PONb template. The luminescence, solution behavior, and solid-state stability of Ag-34 were extensively studied. Electrospray ionization mass spectrometry confirmed the integrity of Ag-34's skeleton in solution. Its unique luminescent behavior shows potential for temperature detection. This work is expected to inspire further research on PONb-templated high-nuclearity silver clusters.

Summary: Researchers constructed a NiFe layered double hydroxide (LDH)/MXene composite with a two-dimensional (2D)/2D sandwich-like heterostructure through electrostatic self-assembly to address the self-stacking and excessively high conductivity issues of MXene. The composite achieved a minimum reflection loss (RLmin) value of -58.2 dB at a thickness of 2 mm and filler loading of 20 wt%. The absorption mechanism was analyzed based on multiple reflection, dipole/interfacial polarization, impedance matching, and synergy between dielectric and magnetic losses. The simulation of the radar cross section (RCS) confirmed the efficient absorption properties and application prospects of the material.

Summary: Water redistribution has a profound impact on the function of dryland ecosystems. Biological soil crusts (BSCs or biocrusts), which cover a large portion of arid land soil surface, have conflicting effects on water redistribution at a regional scale. This study clarified the effects of different biocrusts on soil hydraulic properties in the Tengger Desert. The results showed that biocrusts significantly altered soil hydraulic properties, including water holding capacity, soil hydrophobicity, water sorptivity, and unsaturated hydraulic conductivity. Understanding the role of biocrusts in hydraulic properties can help improve our understanding of soil water distribution, movement, and retention in the area.

Summary: A new perfect triangular lattice antiferromagnet K2Ni(SeO3)(2) has been synthesized, in which both in-plane and inter-plane geometric frustration is present. The compound shows antiferromagnetic order at T(N) ≈ 7 K. High-field magnetization and electron spin resonance indicate the presence of easy-plane anisotropy. Density functional theory calculations confirm the excellent two-dimensionality of the compound. Thus, K2Ni(SeO3)(2) is a perfect triangular-lattice antiferromagnet with strong frustration and easy-plane anisotropy.

Summary: This study aimed to compare the effectiveness, safety, and tolerability of different drugs for treating insomnia. The results showed that non-benzodiazepines, antidepressants, and orexin receptor antagonists may have positive effects on improving total sleep time, sleep onset latency, and wake time after sleep onset. The choice of insomnia drugs should consider the individual's insomnia phenotype, as well as the safety and tolerability of each drug.

Summary: Through a systematic review and meta-analysis of 37 cohort studies, it was found that an increased consumption of sugar-sweetened beverages (SSBs) per 250 mL/day was associated with a higher risk of breast, colorectal, biliary tract, and prostate cancer. Increased consumption of artificially sweetened beverages (ASBs) per 250 mL/day was associated with a higher risk of leukemia. Increased consumption of 100% fruit juice per 250 mL/day was associated with a higher risk of overall cancer, melanoma, squamous cell carcinoma, and thyroid cancer. There were linear dose-response associations between SSBs consumption and breast and kidney cancer, and between ASBs and fruit juices consumption and pancreatic cancer.

Summary: This study evaluated the effects of head-of-bed elevation on patients with acquired brain injury (ABI). The results showed that elevating the head of the bed by 30 degrees can significantly reduce intracranial pressure (ICP), but did not have statistical differences on cerebral perfusion pressure (CPP) and disability at 90 days. Therefore, head-of-bed elevation of 30 degrees may be an effective noninvasive nursing practice for the prognosis and rehabilitation of ABI patients.

Summary: The CYP76 subfamily, which belongs to the CYP superfamily, is crucial for phytohormone biosynthesis and response to environmental stresses in plants. Genome-wide analysis of the CYP76 subfamily in seven AA genome species revealed three groups, with Group 1 having the largest number of members. Analysis of cis-acting elements showed a high number of elements related to jasmonic acid and light response. Gene duplication analysis indicated expansion mainly through SD/WGD and tandem forms, with strong purifying selection during evolution. Expression pattern analysis showed that OsCYP76s exhibit restricted expression patterns in leaves and roots. qRT-PCR analysis of CYP76s under abiotic stresses revealed specific response patterns and functional divergence between japonica and indica rice. These findings provide valuable insights into the functional diversity and evolution of the CYP76 subfamily and have implications for improving stress tolerance and agronomic traits in rice.

Summary: Gold(II) complexes have been less utilized in catalysis compared to their gold(I) and gold(III) counterparts. However, gold(II) complexes offer potential in homo-coupling and cross-coupling reactions, as they are more easily accessible through simplified oxidation and reduction processes. Gold(II) exhibits characteristics of both soft acid gold(I) and hard acid gold(III). This review explores the unique reactivity and potential applications of gold(II) species, highlighting their significance in catalytic transformations.

Summary: A new aryl selenonium polyoxometalate hybrid was developed and compared with an aryl sulfonium polyoxometalate hybrid in terms of their photocatalytic properties. It was found that the aryl selenonium hybrid exhibited better catalytic performance, which could be attributed to the larger atomic radii of selenium stabilizing the photogenerated electron-hole pair more efficiently. Additionally, the generation of elemental selenium through cleavage of C-Se bonds during catalysis was observed.
