Evidence mapping and overview of systematic reviews of the effects of acupuncture therapies by Yuqing Zhang, Gordon Guyatt, Lin Wang, Hao Wen, Liming Lu, Gabriel Rada, Lai Wang, Shuqi Ge, Yu Dong, Camila Ávila, Xiaorong Tang, Neng-Gui Xu, Zhao Zeng, Camilo Vergara, Rouhao Chen, Xiaojing Wei, Wen Luo, Jing chun Zeng, Chun-Zhi Tang

“…Objective To provide a route map regarding systematic reviews (SRs) of acupuncture therapies that will meet two goals: (1) to identify areas in which more or better evidence is required and (2) to identify acupuncture applications that, although proven effective, remain underused in practice, and thus warrant more effective knowledge dissemination.Eligibility criteria We included SRs that conducted meta-analyses (MAs) of randomised controlled trials (RCTs) for this overview.Information sources We searched for SRs without language restrictions from January 2015 to November 2020 in four Chinese electronic databases and Epistemonikos database. …”

The promotion effect of FeS2 on Sb2S3 bioleaching and Sb speciation transformation by Xing-fu Zheng, Xing-fu Zheng, Xing-fu Zheng, Jin-lan Xia, Jin-lan Xia, Zhen-yuan Nie, Zhen-yuan Nie, Hong-peng Cao, Hong-peng Cao, Rui-Jia Hu, Yu-ting Liang, Hong-chang Liu, Hong-chang Liu

“…The DFT results show that between the Sb2S3 (0 1 0) and FeS2 (1 0 0) surfaces, S-Fe, S-S, S-Sb, and Sb-Fe bonds are formed, and the direction of electron transfer is from Sb2S3 to FeS2; the work functions for Sb2S3 after addition of FeS2 decrease, implying that faster electron transfer occurs; Fe(III)-6H2O derived from FeS2 adsorbs on the surface more easily than does glucose, which is the major component of the extracellular polymeric substances in bacteria, indicating that during the bioleaching process, Fe(III)-6H2O plays an important role; after mixing, both Fe(III)-6H2O and glucose adsorb on the Sb2S3 (0 1 0) surface more easily, with stronger bonds and larger adsorption energies, which are in good agreement with the experimental results.…”
