Recent Advances in Functionalized Biomass-Derived Porous Carbons and their Composites for Hybrid Ion Capacitors.

Hybrid ion capacitors (HICs) have aroused extreme interest due to their combined characteristics of energy and power densities. The performance of HICs lies hidden in the electrode materials used for the construction of battery and supercapacitor components. The hunt is always on to locate the best material in terms of cost-effectiveness and overall optimized performance characteristics.

Rational design of selenium inserted 1T/2H mixed-phase molybdenum disulfide for energy storage and pollutant degradation applications.

MoSbased materials are recognized as the promising candidate for multifunctional applications due to its unique physicochemical properties. But presence of lower number of active sites, poor electrical conductivity, and less stability of 2H and 1T MoSinherits its practical applications. Herein, we synthesized the Se inserted mixed-phase 2H/1T MoSnanosheets with abundant defects sites to achieve improved overall electrochemical activity.

Comparison of ultrasound-guided bilateral subcostal transversus abdominis plane block and port-site infiltration with bupivacaine in laparoscopic cholecystectomy.

Background And Aims: Many patients experience moderate-to-severe pain after laparoscopic cholecystectomy. We aimed to compare the efficacy of ultrasound-guided bilateral subcostal transversus abdominis plane (TAP) block with port-site infiltration for post-operative analgesia after laparoscopic cholecystectomy.

Methods: Patients undergoing elective laparoscopic cholecystectomy under general anaesthesia were divided into two groups of 40 each to receive ultrasound-guided bilateral subcostal TAP block (T) with 0.

A Prospective, Observational Study to Evaluate the Role of Gabapentin as Preventive Analgesic in Thyroidectomy under General Anesthesia.

Background: Effective management of postoperative pain is a part of well-organized perioperative care, which helps in reduced morbidity and improved patient satisfaction. Preventive analgesia can reduce acute and chronic pain by blocking the noxious inputs to pain pathways, preventing sensitization. Studies have reported efficacy of gabapentin as a preventive analgesic in perioperative pain.

The photoluminescence of SrS:Cu nanophosphor.

Strontium sulfide doped with copper has been regarded as one of the most promising inorganic materials for the blue-green color phosphor. A wet chemical precipitation method with post-annealing is presented for the synthesis of copper-doped SrS nanoparticles. XRD studies revealed the phase purity of SrS particles with rocksalt structure.
