Abstract: A composition of a photocatalyst, a method of manufacturing the photocatalyst, and a method of chemically reducing carbon dioxide to carbon monoxide using the photocatalyst under visible-light irradiation is provided. The photocatalyst comprises a transition metal ion and graphitic carbon nitride and includes single metal sites on carbon nitride. Under visible light, the metal sites that are coordinated to nitrogen atoms get activated, without the use of additional ligands, to catalyze the reduction of carbon dioxide to selectively produce carbon monoxide. The photocatalytic reduction of carbon dioxide to carbon monoxide is highly efficient, resulting a turnover number of more than 800 for carbon monoxide production in 2 hours. The composition is useful in converting carbon dioxide into useful chemicals and carbon-based fuels. A functional model of molecular catalysts for efficient carbon dioxide reduction is also present.

Abstract: Robust optimization systems and methods are provided for intensity modulated proton therapy (IMPT) that may be deployed in a clinically practical way to enable users to control the balance between nominal plan quality and plan robustness in a user-defined way. The method may include a normalized dose interval volume histogram (NDIVH)-based robust optimization, where the normalized dose interval (NDI) is calculated for each voxel considering dose variations in the face of uncertainties. It is then used to create a NDIVH. The area under this NDIVH curve may then be used to quantify plan robustness. By using normalized dose interval volume constraints (NDIVC) to control the shape of the NDIVH curves, plan robustness may be adjusted. The tradeoff between nominal plan quality and plan robustness can be modified in a user-defined way by adjusting positions of the NDIVCs on the NDIVH curves.

Also provided are methods of identifying a subject at risk of experiencing a complication of atherosclerotic cardiovascular disease, and methods of evaluating the efficacy of a cardiovascular therapeutic agent in a subject with cardiovascular disease using levels of choline-related trimethylamine-containing compounds.
