On one hand electron or hole doping of quantum spin liquid (QSL) may unlock high-temperature superconductivity and on the other hand it can disrupt the spin liquidity, giving rise to a magnetically ordered ground state. Recently, a 2D MOF, Cu (HHTP) (HHTP - 2,3,6,7,10,11-hexahydroxytriphenylene), containing Cu(II) S= frustrated spins in the Kagome lattice is emerging as a promising QSL candidate. Herein, we present an elegant in situ redox-chemistry strategy of anchoring Cu (HHTP) crystallites onto diamagnetic reduced graphene oxide (rGO) sheets, resulting in the formation of electron-doped Cu (HHTP) -rGO composite which exhibited a characteristic semiconducting behavior (5 K to 300 K) with high electrical conductivity of 70 S ⋅ m and a carrier density of ~1.

This study investigated the clinical outcomes of rifampicin combination therapy compared with monotherapy in treating prosthetic joint infection (PJI) or prosthetic valve endocarditis (PVE) due to staphylococci and streptococci.
Methods: A systematic search was performed from inception to 13 June 2022 in Embase, MEDLINE, Cochrane and Web of Science to investigate the clinical outcomes of rifampicin combination therapy compared with monotherapy in treating staphylococcal and streptococcal PJI or PVE.
Highly Pathogenic Avian Influenza (HPAI) has been prevalent in Indonesia since 2003 causing major losses to poultry production and human deaths. Live bird markets are considered high risk areas due to the density of large numbers of mixed poultry species of unknown disease status. Understanding trader knowledge and perceptions of HPAI and biosecurity is critical to reducing transmission risk and controlling the disease.

However, the risk of transmission from informal illegal poultry movement has received little attention in Indonesia where human fatalities are the highest in the world. This research investigated the illegal movement of adult poultry between the islands of Java, Bali and Lombok to determine the potential risk of HPAI H5N1 transmission.
