Lattice matching governs interfacial kinetics and conversion reversibility in FeF3 cathodes

Iron trifluoride (FeF3) conversion-type cathodes generally suffer from bottlenecks including poor interfacial stability and sluggish Li+ transport. Most existing studies have overlooked the critical regulatory effect of the lattice matching relationship between the surface layer...

Associations of outdoor physical activity, screen time, and sleep characteristics with myopia among primary and secondary school students

Myopia is a common refractive error among children and adolescents and represents a major global public health concern due to its high prevalence and associated risk of vision-threatening complications. Lifestyle factors, including outdoor physical activity, screen exposure, and...

The Nuremberg Chronicle 1493: Transcriptions

Annotated transcriptions from the Nuremberg Chronicle, fol. Ir to VIIr in Latin (Schedel, 1493), Early New High German, ENHG (Schedel & Alt, 1493, 1496, res.) and from the English translation by Hadavas (2023) in comparison.

Life cycle assessment of electrocoagulation versus chemical coagulation for automotive cataphoresis wastewater: the role of electrode material and electricity source

Electrocoagulation (EC) is widely promoted as a dosing-free alternative to conventional coagulation, yet life-cycle comparisons of the two remain scarce for industrial effluents. This study compares three EC electrode configurations (Al–Al, Fe–Fe and a hybrid Fe–Al) with poly-alu...

Outcomes of heart failure hospitalizations in adults with heterogeneous subtypes of muscular dystrophy: a nationwide analysis in the united states

Muscular dystrophies (MDs) may cause heart failure (HF), but outcomes specific to MD-related HF are poorly characterized. We evaluated outcomes of HF hospitalizations in patients with MDs compared to patients without MD in the United States. Discharge data from HF hospitalization...

Geometric and morphological assessment of structurally normal tricuspid aortic valves based on body surface area using 3D transesophageal echocardiography

Aortic valve geometry is a key parameter for aortic valve repair, which serves as a surgical alternative to valve replacement for aortic insufficiency treatment. Individuals with different body sizes may exhibit varying geometric parameters of the aortic valve. This study aims to...

Tuning the pressure exponent for adaptive solid rocket motors via molecular perovskite energetic materials: a comparative evaluation of DAP-4 and HMX-based propellant

Conventional nitramine energetic ingredients (e.g., HMX) suffer from complex tuning methods and limited effectiveness in regulating the high-pressure exponent of solid propellants. In this study, the molecular perovskite energetic material DAP-4 was employed to achieve a stepwise...

Numerical study of hydrodynamics and power performance of offshore floating photovoltaic: Effects of connector failure

As a core component of the offshore floating photovoltaic (OFPV) system, connectors exert a decisive influence on the stable operation of the entire multi-float structure. In this study, a coupled hydrodynamic-solar power generation model for the OFPV system is developed. First,...

Molecular screening of urogenital tract of adult males for Simkania negevensis

Recently, the existence of Simkania negevensis in the genitalia of women was confirmed. As to the source of infection to females, it was hypothesized that Simkania could be transmitted from human to human via sexual contact. This work aims to investigate whether Simkania could in...

Short-film–based world café for faculty development in medical humanities: a mixed-method evaluation across three teaching hospitals

Clinical educators play a central role in guiding the professional identity formation, ethical reasoning, and communication skills of medical students. Rapid changes in healthcare, including evolving legal frameworks, increasing visibility of gender diversity, and the emphasis on...

Metabolomic profiling and biomedical potential of adventitious roots derived from a 150-year-old mountain ginseng

Panax ginseng Meyer, sometimes known as Asian ginseng or Korean ginseng, is an important medicinal herb used in traditional medicine and health foods in Korea, China, and Japan. Ginsenosides, also known as saponins, are found in ginseng roots along with polysaccharides, peptides,...

Phantom-based accuracy validation of multimodal ultrasound and C-arm cone-beam CT image fusion for spine navigation

C-arm cone-beam computed tomography (CBCT) provides three-dimensional bony anatomy for spine navigation, whereas tracked ultrasound can provide local radiation-free anatomical information. Accurate fusion remains challenging because of ultrasound artifacts, incomplete surface vis...

Simulation in Teacher Education: Fostering Critical Thinking and Professional Suitability

Critical thinking is a core competence in teacher education, essential for navigating complex classroom realities and making informed pedagogical decisions. This study explores the potential of simulation as a pedagogical method to enhance critical thinking among pre-service teac...

Reliability and quality of colorectal cancer-related health information videos on social media platforms: a cross-sectional study

Social media video platforms have become major sources of colorectal cancer (CRC) information, yet the reliability and educational value of CRC-related videos remain uncertain across platforms. This study aimed to compare the reliability, overall quality, and educational usabilit...

High-power erbium-doped waveguide amplifier by modal manipulation on thin-film lithium niobate

Erbium-doped thin-film lithium niobate waveguide amplifiers have attracted growing interests due to their compatibility with on-chip high-speed electro-optical modulation. Subject to the high coupling and propagation losses the off-chip output powers of such on-chip amplifiers ar...

Structural diagnosis and evolution of urban resilience in dryland oasis urban agglomerations from an eco-immunological perspective

Dryland oasis urban agglomerations face increasing drought risk, but gains in long-term adaptive capacity may not translate into stronger structural resilience because additive indices allow strong dimensions to offset weak ones. This study developed a partially non-compensatory...

Bakgrunn: Studenters rett til medvirkning i høyere utdanning er styrket etter Bologna-erklæringen. Med partnerskap som rammeverk er samskaping blitt en samarbeidsform mellom studenter og undervisere som kan legge til rette for aktiv deltakelse i utviklingen av utdanningstilbud. I...

Social networks, sleep quality, and nurses’ safety behavior: a mixed-methods study

Poor sleep quality and limited social resources are common among nurses and may compromise safety behavior, yet the pathways linking them remain unclear. This study explored the pathways through which nurses’ ego-network status and sleep quality are associated with safety behavio...

Adipose tissue-derived stromal vascular fraction and xanthosine independently promote canine surgical wound healing

Adipose tissue-derived stromal vascular fraction (SVF) and cultured stem cells have been applied in the treatment of wound healing and many other diseases of dogs. However, these cells are difficult to obtain in large amounts for therapy. Xanthosine (Xs) is a nucleoside that has...

Design, synthesis, and biological evaluation of novel 4,5-diaryl-1,2,3-thiadiazole derivatives: anticancer activity and molecular docking studies
