Triboelectric nanogenerators (TENGs), a newly developed energy harvesting device that converts surrounding environmental mechanical stimuli into electricity, have been significantly explored as an ideal long-term power source for electrical devices. Despite recent advances, the development of advanced TENG devices with sufficient outputs to sustainably ...

This review considers parent-clinician interactions that are associated with vulnerabilities in communication and what we refer to as 'communication traps'. Communication traps are defined by high-stress situations with affect-laden subject matter that can lead to progressively dysfunctional communications/exchanges that are avoidable. While thi ...

Background: The coronavirus nonstructural protein 5 (Nsp5) is a cysteine protease required for processing the viral polyprotein and is therefore crucial for viral replication. Nsp5 from several coronaviruses have also been found to cleave host proteins, disrupting molecular pathways involved in innate immunity. Nsp5 from the recently emerged SARS-CoV-2 ...

The purpose of this research is to enhance the analysis of the reliability status for external anticorrosive coatings. With the limitation and insufficiency of the static evaluation method, we study and construct an evaluation method of dynamic reliability for the anticorrosive layer, integrating the trend analysis of the Markov chain and the set pair t ...

Persistent developmental stuttering is a speech disorder that primarily affects normal speech fluency but encompasses a complex set of symptoms ranging from reduced sensorimotor integration to socioemotional challenges. Here, we investigated the whole-brain structural connectome and its topological alterations in adults who stutter. Diffusion-weighted i ...

Lactating rats show changes in the secretion of hormones and brain signals that promote hyperphagia and facilitate the production of milk. Little is known, however, about the role of ghrelin in the mechanisms sustaining lactational hyperphagia. Here, we used Wistar female rats that underwent surgery to sever the galactophores to prevent milk delivery (G ...

Microphotosynthetic power cells (µPSCs) generate power through the exploitation of living photosynthetic microorganisms by harvesting sunlight. The thermodynamic limitations of this process restrict the power output of a single µPSC. Herein, we demonstrate µPSCs in four different array configurations to enhance power output from these power cells. To th ...

BSTRACTOil (or petroleum), consisting of a mixture of hydrocarbons, can be leaked from oil exploration, production, and use. Due to their complex mixture and interaction with the subsurface soil and water, they are hard to treat and can become a significant environmental concern. Rhamnolipid and sophorolipid biosurfactants, biologically produced surfact ...

Objectives: Depression screening tool accuracy studies should be conducted with large enough sample sizes to generate precise accuracy estimates. We assessed the proportion of recently published depression screening tool diagnostic accuracy studies that reported sample size calculations; the proportion that provided confidence intervals (CIs); and preci ...
