Activation of a deep electron‐deficient area on chalcogen atoms (Ch = Se, Te) is demonstrated here in alkynyl chalcogen derivatives, in the prolongation of the (C≡)C−Ch bond. The solid‐state structures of 1,4‐bis(methylselenoethynyl)perfluorobenzene (1Se) show the formation of recurrent chalcogen‐bonded (ChB) motifs. Association of 1Se and the tellurium analog 1Te with 4,4’‐bipyridine and with the stronger Lewis base 1,4‐di(4‐pyridyl)piperazine gives 1:1 co‐crystals with 1D extended structures linked...

Nitridophosphates are a well‐studied class of nitrides with diverse materials properties such as luminescence or ion conductivity. Despite the growing interest on this compound class, their synthesis mostly works through direct combination of starting materials. Herein, we present a systematic study on a promising method for post‐synthetic modification by reacting pre‐synthesized nitridophosphates with halides under elevated pressures and temperatures. In this work, we focus on the applicability...

The two‐step magnesium‐storage mechanism Bi↔MgBi↔Mg3Bi2 is proposed and comprehensively investigated via spectroscopy and ab‐initio methods. Theoretical computations confirm a significant electronic conductivity of MgBi and reveal a low reaction barrier of the two‐step path. In combination with nanoengineering design of mesoporous Bi nanosheets, a highly significant volume expansion (204 %) and Mg‐storage kinetics are regulated. Abstract We present mesoporous bismuth nanosheets as a model...

There is a demand for simulation-themed courses within maxillofacial surgery, yet these are often expensive. With this in mind, we used a non-living chicken thigh model to simulate microsurgical procedures on a training day for specialty registrars. The advantages and limitations of the simulation were explored through participant feedback. This model was found to be a useful, cost-effective simulation which was valued by trainees within our specialty.

Rhinophyma is a progressive disease of the nose, which is characterised by skin thickening and sebaceous hyperplasia. Patients with rhinophyma are often stigmatised due to worsening disfigurement of their nose. This can also result in functional impairment such as reduced nasal patency. Severe cases of rhinophyma are best managed with varied surgical interventions, as there is no clear ‘gold standard’ treatment that has been described. We present our experiences in the management of rhinophyma and...

Abstract Background Preoperative diagnosis of salivary gland tumors (SGTs) by fine‐needle aspiration (FNA) cytology is challenging. Next‐generation sequencing (NGS)‐based assays for somatic mutations have a great advantage in that a large number of genes can be analyzed simultaneously. Although NGS may have an enormous diagnostic potential in cytology, to our knowledge, the significance of NGS in SGT cytology remains to be clarified. Methods In this pilot study, we retrospectively examined...

AbstractRostral forebrain structures such as the central nucleus of the amygdala (CeA) send projections to the nucleus of solitary tract (NST) and the parabrachial nucleus (PBN) that modulate taste-elicited responses. However, the proportion of forebrain-induced excitatory and inhibitory effects often differ when taste cell recording changes from the NST to the PBN. The present study investigated whether this descending influence might originate from a shared or distinct population of neurons marked...

AbstractUnder natural conditions, an animal orienting to an air-borne odor plume must contend with the shifting influence of meteorological variables, such as air temperature, humidity and wind speed, on the location and the detectability of the plume. Despite their importance, the natural statistics of such variables are difficult to reproduce in the laboratory and hence few studies have investigated strategies of olfactory orientation by mobile animals under different meteorological conditions....

Abstract Perceptual multi‐stability is characterized by alternating interpretations of an unchanging stimulus input. The reversal negativity (RN) and reversal positivity (RP) ERP components show differences in electrophysiological responses between trials on which participants experience a perceptual reversal of a multi‐stable stimulus versus trials without a reversal (i.e., stable). However, it is unclear to what extent these two ERP components reflect reversal‐related perceptual processing rather...
