Objective: This study aimed to assess the relationship of cognition, depression and anxiety to glycemic control in elders with diabetes. DM is a chronic medical condition. Its control depends on adherence to medical therapy and making decisions related to lifestyle changes. This decision making capacity is affected by many factors including cognition and psychological status. Design: It was a case control study. Setting: It was done in Ain Shams University Hospital inpatients and DM outpatient clinic, Cairo, Egypt. Participants: Of the one hundred diabetic patients aged ≥ 60 years, 50 had Hemoglobin A1c (HbA1c) ≥ 7.5 (cases) and 50 had Hb A1c 7.5 (controls). Measurements: Cognition was assessed using minimental status examination (MMSE) test, Mattis Organic Mental Syndrome Screening Examination (MOMSSE) and Cambridge Cognitive Examination (CAMCOG) test. Geriatric depression scale-15 (GDS-15) was performed for depression assessment, while anxiety was assessed by DSM IV criteria. Laboratory investigations included: fasting blood sugar (FBS), post-prandial blood sugar (PPBS), glycated haemoglobin (Hb A1c), low density lipoprotein (LDL), high-density lipoprotein (HDL), total cholesterol, and triglycerides (TG). Results: Significant difference was found between the two groups regarding scores of cognitive tests: MMSE score (p = 0.004);below average (p = 0.02) and average scores (p = 0.05) of MOMSSE;CAMCOG score (p = 0.015);and CAMCOG divided items score including orientation (p = 0.003), comprehension (p = 0.005), expression (p = 0.020), attention (p = 0.002), and abstraction (p = 0.008) as well as depression screening scores (P = 0.002). Using Receiver Operating Characteristic, CAMCOG had better sensitivity and MOMSSE had better specificity. Conclusion: Cognitive impairment was associated with poor glycemic control, and impairment in attention and abstraction, related to executive function, functions were found to be associated with poor glycemic control.

Nb-doped SrFeO_(3−δ)(SFO)is used as a cathode in proton-conducting solid oxide fuel cells(H-SOFCs).First-principles calculations show that the SrFe0.9Nb0.1O_(3−δ)(SFNO)cathode has a lower energy barrier in the cathode reaction for H-SOFCs than the Nb-free SrFeO_(3−δ)*** experimental studies show that Nb doping substantially enhances the performance of the SrFeO_(3−δ)***,oxygen vacancies(VO)were introduced into SFNO using the microwave sintering method,further improving the performance of the SFNO *** mechanism behind the performance improvement owing to VO was revealed using first-principles calculations,with further optimization of the SFNO cathode achieved by developing a suitable wet chemical synthesis route to prepare nanosized SFNO *** method significantly reduces the grain size of SFNO compared with the conventional solid-state reaction method,although the solid-state reaction method is generally used for preparing Nb-containing *** a result of defect engineering and synthesis approaches,the SFNO cathode achieved an attractive fuel cell performance,attaining an output of 1764 mW·cm−2 at 700℃ and operating for more than 200 *** manipulation of Nb-doped SrFeO_(3−δ)can be seen as a“one stone,two birds”strategy,enhancing cathode performance while retaining good stability,thus providing an interesting approach for constructing high-performance cathodes for H-SOFCs.

卤氧化铋(BiOX,X=Cl、Br或I)因其独特的结构特性,如二维层状结构和大量暴露的表面原子,而受到广泛关注。这些特性使它们成高效的光催化剂,并被广泛应用于水处理、有机合成等领域。然而,它们在其他催化中的潜力,如作为金属铋的前体或作为单原子催化剂的载体,还处于起步阶段。在本论文中,我们研究了卤素离子和形貌对以卤氧化铋为前驱体合成的金属铋电催化剂的结构的影响,及其在氮还原反应(NRR)中的性能,并以氯氧化铋为载体制备了 Pt单原子催化剂,探究了其在苯乙炔反马仕加成硅氢化反应中的催化性能。本论文取得的主要研究成果如下:在第一个工作中,我们发展了一种电还原卤氧化铋制备的金属铋纳米片(BNSs)的合成方法,并将其应用于电催化氮还原反应(NRR)。BNSs可分别由具有不同卤素离子的卤氧化铋纳米片前体以及溴氧化铋纳米棒制备的。X射线衍射(XRD)表征结果显示成功形成了铋纳米片,而电子显微镜表明,以溴氧化铋纳米棒为前驱体制备的BNS1尺寸在70-120纳米之间,以溴氧化铋纳米片为前驱体制备的BNS2尺寸在150-200 nm之间。值得注意的是,在环境温度下,在0.1M Na2SO4水溶液中,在-0.6 VvsRHE时,BNS2的氨产率和法拉第效率分别为3.99 μ gNH3 mgBi-1 h-1和7.04%,而 BNS1 则分别为 2.52 μ gNH3 mgBi-1 h-1 和 4.93%。在第二个工作中,我们采用光沉积策略制备了沉积在氯氧化铋纳米片上的铂单原子催化剂(PtxBOC SAC,该催化剂在苯乙炔的反马氏硅氢化加成反应中表现出优异的催化性能。我们首先合成了氯化氧铋纳米片,然后通过光沉积方法沉积了铂单原子。透射电子显微镜、X射线衍射、X射线光电子能谱、能量色散X射线光谱和CO吸收红外光谱结果表明,铂以单原子的形式均匀分布在氯氧化铋纳米片上。电感耦合等离子体质谱结果表明,铂单原子催化剂的铂负载量在0.5 wt%-4.0 wt%范围内。其中,Pt1BOC在苯乙炔的反马氏氢化硅烷化反应中表现出最高的催化性能,转化频率为156 min-1。该值远高于铂纳米颗粒对比样,也高于文献报道的值。此外,该催化剂表现出优异的稳定性,在5个循环后催化性能没有明显衰减。
