Representative work: OBJECTIVE: To compare the value of MRI diffusion kurtosis imaging (DKI) and diffusion tensor imaging (DTI) in grading cerebral astrocytomas and to analyze the correlation of respective parameters with aquaporin-4 (AQP4) expression. METHODS: Sixty patients with cerebral astrocytoma, including low-grade astrocytomas (LGA, n = 25) and high-grade astrocytomas (HGA, n = 35), were studied. The values of DKI parameters (mean kurtosis [MK], radial kurtosis [Kr], and axial kurtosis [Ka]) and DTI parameters (fractional anisotropy, mean diffusivity [MD]) corrected by contralateral normal-appearing white matter in the solid parts of the tumors and peritumoral edema were compared. Receiver operating char Abstract Sepsis is defined as a life‐threatening organ dysfunction caused by a dysregulated host response to infection. Effective treatment of bacterial sepsis remains challenging due to the rapid progression of infection and the systemic inflammatory response. In this study, monolayer BiO 2− X nanosheets (BiO 2− X NSs) with oxygen‐rich vacancies through sonication‐assisted liquid‐phase exfoliation are successfully synthesized. Herein, the BiO 2− X NSs exhibit a novel nanozyme‐enabled intervention strategy for the management of bacterial sepsis, based on its pH dependent dual antibacterial and anti‐inflammatory functions. BiO 2− X NSs exhibit effective antibacterial by utilizing oxidase (OXD
