- Cell therapy has been shown to be a key clinical therapeutic option for central nervous system diseases or damage. Standardization of clinical cell therapy procedures is an important task for professional associations devoted to cell therapy. The Chinese Branch of the International Association of Neurorestoratology (IANR) completed the first set of guidelines governing the clinical application of neurorestoration in 2011. The IANR and the Chinese Association of Neurorestoratology (CANR) collaborated to propose the current version "Clinical Cell Therapy Guidelines for Neurorestoration (IANR/CANR 2017)". The IANR council board members and CANR committee members approved this proposal on September 1, 2016, and recommend it to clinical practitioners of cellular therapy. These guidelines include items of cell type nomenclature, cell quality control, minimal suggested cell doses, patient-informed consent, indications for undergoing cell therapy, contraindications for undergoing cell therapy, documentation of procedure and therapy, safety evaluation, efficacy evaluation, policy of repeated treatments, do not charge patients for unproven therapies, basic principles of cell therapy, and publishing responsibility.

Tidskriftsartikel (refereegranskat)abstract
- Sustainable development depends on the integration of the economy, society, and environment. Yet, escalating environmental challenges pose threats to both society and the economy. Despite progress in addressing environmental issues to promote sustainability, knowledge gaps in scientific research, technological advancement, engineering practice, and policy development persist. In this review, we aim to narrow these gaps by proposing innovation-based solutions and refining existing paradigms. Reviewing past research and actions, we first elucidate the evolution of sustainability science and the essence of sustainable development and its assessment. Secondly, we summarize current major environmental issues, including global warming and climate change, biodiversity loss, land degradation and desertification, and environmental pollution, as well as their relationships with sustainability and the achievement of Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs). Subsequently, this review critically evaluates the role of innovations in science, technology, engineering, and policy (iSTEP) and their synergies in advancing sustainability and SDGs. While their sequential relationships may vary based on specific contexts or sustainability scenarios within the iSTEP framework, each component reinforces the others, fostering continuous improvement. Finally, this review offers recommendations and future perspectives for formulating sustainability roadmaps. Recommendations include fostering a vision of sustainability, promoting interdisciplinary collaboration, and encouraging transboundary cooperation among stakeholders for future sustainability endeavors.

Influence of Ru on the thermomechanical fatigue deformation behavior of a single crystal superalloy
- 2022

Tidskriftsartikel (refereegranskat)abstract
- The deformation mechanisms of a single crystal nickel-base superalloy with and without Ru-doped have been investigated under out-of-phase thermomechanical fatigue. The Ru-doped alloy exhibits a thermomechanical fatigue life more than twice as high compared to the Ru-free alloy and a difference in thermomechanical fatigue behavior is also displayed. Microstructure studies by scanning electron microscopy and transmission electron microscopy revealed that the deformation mechanism of the Ru-free alloy in the initial stage is the movement of dislocations in the γ matrix. In the later stage of the thermomechanical fatigue test, large amounts of twins are formed in the material, and a large number of stacking faults and dislocations are sheared into the γ' precipitates. By comparing with the Ru-free alloy, the Ru-doped alloy has a higher matrix strength due to the solid solution strengthening effect of Ru, and is also prone to different deformation mechanisms. For example, the stacking faults are formed in the initial thermomechanical fatigue cycles and remain in the matrix throughout the entire thermomechanical fatigue process. The formation of twins, on the other hand, is suppressed by Ru addition. Such effects are believed to extend the thermomechanical fatigue life effectively.

Experimental study on flame characteristics of double fires in a naturally ventilated tunnel : Flame merging, flame tilt angle and flame height
- 2021

Tidskriftsartikel (refereegranskat)abstract
- A series of fire tests was carried out to investigate the diffusion flame characteristics of double fires generated from separated burners in a naturally ventilated tunnel, considering different heat release rates and fire separation distances. The results show that the flame tilt angle, as well as the horizontal projected flame length, first increases with fire separation distance and then remains constant, but the vertical flame length first decreases and then remains constant, which is different from two fires in free spaces where flames do not tilt when the separation distance is relatively long. This difference is caused by the non-dimensional fire induced air flow velocity in the tunnel, which is mainly related to the tunnel cross-section dimensions and burner radius. Three regions can be identified, i.e. flame vertical merging, plume vertical merging and non-merging with flame tilted. The critical flame merging separation distance, estimated by the flame merging probability, is greater than that of two fires in an open environment due to the fire-induced air flows. The merging flame height is lower than that of a single fire with a same heat release rate. A correlation was proposed to estimate flame height of two fires in a tunnel by the modified non-dimensional heat release rate using an air entrainment perimeter as the characteristic length. This work enhances the understanding of diffusion flame behaviors of double fires in naturally ventilated tunnels.

- Simultaneously tuning the electronic structure of active sites and the microenvironment of the carbon matrix in metal phosphide/carbon nanohybrids is the most effective way to design and develop bi-functional electrocatalysts for electrochemically related energy storage devices. Inspired by this, a robust and advanced N/P co-doped carbon-based dodecahedron catalyst with confined Fe-doped Co2P particles was successfully prepared through a multi-doping engineering strategy. Phytic acid molecules, which were used in the synthesis of the catalyst, not only contribute to the formation of the porous structure, but also act as a phosphorus source to form the corresponding metal phosphide and the P dopant in the carbon matrix. Thanks to the unique composition and structure-dependent merits, the microenvironment of the electrocatalyst was significantly modulated, thus promoting the advantageous local charge rearrangement and smooth mass/charge transfer processes during the oxygen-related electrocatalytic reactions. As a result, the resultant catalyst exhibited significantly enhanced reversible oxygen activity, as evidenced by an ultra-small potential gap of 0.655 V (half-wave potential of 0.895 V for the oxygen reduction reaction; η10 of 320 mV for the oxygen evolution reaction), a remarkable specific capacity of 762 mA h gZn−1, and high voltaic efficiency, exceeding most previous reports. This study provides a new synthetic approach for fabricating highly efficient bi-functional oxygen catalysts and can be handily extended to the synthesis of other heterogeneous electrocatalysts for sustainable energy storage.

- In situ observation of the nucleation and growth stimulated by an electron beam in amorphous GaAs was performed using a high-resolution electron microscopy. The results showed that the crystallization was closely related to the current density of the electron beam. Crystallization could not take place when the current density was 50 pA/cm(2), nanocrystals with the random orientation formed under the 74 pA/cm(2) electron beam, large grains and twining structure formed during the crystallization induced by the 93 pA/cm(2) electron beam. Ionization process and electron-beam heating were suggested to be the possible mechanisms for the irradiation-induced crystallization.

- The phase precipitated in an Mg-Y-Nd alloy during ageing was studied using electron microscopy. Observations were performed along the orientations paralleling to [0001] and [11 (2) over bar0] zone axes of the matrix. The results showed that the platelike p phase has three variants growing along three <1120> directions of the matrix, the beta phase grew faster along <0001>(alpha) and <1120>(alpha) directions than along the third direction (<1 (1) over bar 00>). The morphology of the beta phases was illustrated according to the analysis of the directional misfit between the beta phase and the matrix.

- La-doped BaPbO3 ceramics were prepared by using BaCO3 and PbO. Electrical properties and microstructure of the ceramics were studied. The results show a thin surface layer with a very low resistivity, and the interior of the ceramics with the characteristics of positive temperature coefficient of resistivity (PTCR). The PTCR behavior was related to the La content. The investigation by scanning electron microscopy and transmission electron microscopy revealed that the low resistivity of the surface layer was due to formation of a nano-size BaPbO3 phase with metallic properties.

- The interaction between metal and support is critical in oxygen catalysis as it governs the charge transfer between these two entities, influences the electronic structures of the supported metal, affects the adsorption energies of reaction intermediates, and ultimately impacts the catalytic performance. In this study, we discovered a unique charge transfer reversal phenomenon in a metal/carbon nanohybrid system. Specifically, electrons were transferred from the metal-based species to N-doped carbon, while the carbon support reciprocally donated electrons to the metal domain upon the introduction of nickel. This led to the exceptional electrocatalytic performances of the resulting Ni-Fe/Mo2C@nitrogen-doped carbon catalyst, with a half-wave potential of 0.91 V towards oxygen reduction reaction (ORR) and a low overpotential of 290 mV at 10 mA cm−2 towards oxygen evolution reaction (OER) under alkaline conditions. Additionally, the Fe-Ni/Mo2C@carbon heterojunction catalyst demonstrated high specific capacity (794 mA h gZn−1) and excellent cycling stability (200 h) in a Zn-air battery. Theoretical calculations revealed that Mo2C effectively inhibited charge transfer from Fe to the support, while secondary doping of Ni induced a charge transfer reversal, resulting in electron accumulation in the Fe-Ni alloy region. This local electronic structure modulation significantly reduced energy barriers in the oxygen catalysis process, enhancing the catalytic efficiency of both ORR and OER. Consequently, our findings underscore the potential of manipulating charge transfer reversal between the metal and support as a promising strategy for developing highly-active and durable bi-functional oxygen electrodes.
