Photoinduced Synthesisof 5-Amino-1,2,4-Thiadiazolesfrom Amidines and Isothiocyanates

Abstract Herein, we report a novel, photocatalyst-free protocol enabling the efficient synthesis of diverse 5-amino-1,2,4-thiadiazoles from readily available benzamidines hydrochloride and isothiocyanates. This transformation proceeds via a cascade C–N/N–S bond formation. Mechani...

A Metabo‐Reprogramming Niche Remodeling System Halts Osteoarthritis by Restoring the FGF21‐Arginine Axis

Osteoarthritis (OA), a global leading cause of chronic pain and disability, lacks disease-modifying osteoarthritis drugs (DMOADs) targeting its core pathogenesis. scRNA-seq of human OA cartilage showed marked depletion of a high-arginine-metabolism chondrocyte subpopulation drivi...

Why Does AI Platform Competition Diverge? A Dynamic Analysis of Adoption, Recommendation Mechanisms, and Price Feedback

Generative AI and agentic systems are reshaping platform competition and its long-run welfare consequences. Existing research, however, does not explain why similar AI interventions can produce concentration, costly quality races, cyclical repricing, and different welfare outcome...

Enhancing optical confinement in hybrid surface plasmonic nanocavities via external mode coupling near avoided resonance crossings

Plasmonic devices have been intensively studied in the past few decades. However, the substantial intrinsic ohmic losses imposed by noble metals highly limited further applications of such devices. Herein, we demonstrate the formation of long-lived states via external mode coupli...

Externally Validated Plasma Phospholipid Panel for Pneumoconiosis Triage Across Dust-Exposed and Unexposed Worker Cohorts

Objective: To evaluate whether targeted plasma phospholipidomics identifies an externally validated blood panel for pneumoconiosis triage across dust-exposed and nonexposed worker cohorts. Methods: We quantified 53 plasma phospholipids by UPLC-MS/MS in discovery (n=392) and exter...

One‐Pot Direct Recycling of Spent LiCoO 2 via Synergistic Binder Defluorination and Phase Reconstruction

ABSTRACT Direct recycling of spent lithium‐ion battery cathodes is hindered by two interdependent challenges: persistent polyvinylidene fluoride (PVDF) binder residues that block particle surfaces and incomplete structural repair of degraded layered phases. Here, we report a one‐...

Effect of Nickel Content and Cooling Rate on the Microstructure of As-Cast 316 Stainless Steels Part II: Ferrite and Precipitated Phases Under the Same Sampling Conditions

The presence of ferrite in 316 austenitic stainless steel affects its magnetic permeability, and the secondary precipitates formed by ferrite decomposition can further degrade the corrosion resistance, limiting its application in industries such as nuclear power and medical devic...

Direct Regeneration of Spent LiFePO 4 Using Methionine for Defect Repair and N/S‐Doped Interface Construction

ABSTRACT The coming wave of end‐of‐life electric vehicles presents a formidable challenge for the recycling of spent Li‐ion batteries, particularly those with LiFePO 4 cathodes. The degradation of the LiFePO 4 cathode is primarily attributed to Li loss‐induced lattice defects and...
