Testing the unintended cost effects of health policies for generic substitutions: the case of China's National Volume-Based Procurement (NVBP) policy.

Generic substitutions are globally considered to contain health expenditures. Yet it is uncertain whether the costs spill over to other medicines or health services. Contextualizing China's National Volume-Based Procurement (NVBP) policy, which promoted generic substitution, this study tests the changes in patients' utilization of generic medicines and whether the costs shift to other pharmaceutics or health services post-policy.

The impact of blastocyst grade on singleton birth weight in fresh IVF‒ET cycles in ART: a retrospective study.

Background: The positive correlation between embryo quality and pregnancy outcomes has been confirmed in many studies, but there are few on the impact of embryo quality on neonatal weight, especially among neonates from fresh IVF‒ET cycles in ART. Therefore, this study aimed to compare the birth weights of infants from different blastocyst grades in fresh IVF-ET cycles and explore related factors affecting birth weight.

Methods: The main outcome measure was singleton birth weight.

Association of Dietary Selenium Intake with Type 2 Diabetes in Middle-Aged and Older Adults in China.

The relationship between distinct dietary selenium intake and type 2 diabetes (T2D) is still a topic of uncertainty. This study examined the relationship between dietary selenium intake and T2D risk among middle-aged and older Chinese adults. Dietary selenium intake was assessed through three 24 h recalls, using data from the China Health and Nutrition Survey.

Generic substitution of amlodipine is not associated with increased risk of mortality or adverse cardiovascular events: An observational cohort study.

This study aims to assess clinical outcomes following switching from originator to generic amlodipine. This population-based, matched, cohort study included users of originator amlodipine using claims data during 2018-2020 from a health system in Tianjin, China, in which usage of generic amlodipine was promoted by a drug procurement policy, the national volume-based procurement. Non-switchers refer to those remained on originator after the policy, while pure-switchers were those who switched to and continued using generic amlodipine, and back-switchers were those switched to generic amlodipine but then back to the originator.

The Emulsifying Properties, In Vitro Digestion Characteristics and Storage Stability of High-Pressure-Homogenization-Modified Dual-Protein-Based Emulsions.

The droplet size, zeta potential, interface protein adsorption rate, physical stability and microrheological properties of high-pressure-homogenization (HPH)-modified, dual-protein-based whey-soy (whey protein isolate-soy protein isolate) emulsions containing different oil phase concentrations (5%, 10% and 15%; /) were compared in this paper. The in vitro digestion characteristics and storage stability of the dual-protein emulsions before and after HPH treatment were also explored. The results show that with an increase in the oil phase concentration, the droplet size and interface protein adsorption rate of the untreated dual-protein emulsions increased, while the absolute value of the zeta potential decreased.

The Effect of High Pressure Homogenization on the Structure of Dual-Protein and Its Emulsion Functional Properties.

It has been proven that high-pressure homogenization (HPH) could improve the functional properties of proteins by modifying their structure. This study researched the effect of HPH on the structural and functional properties of whey-soy dual-protein (Soy Protein Isolation-Whey Protein Isolation, SPI-WPI). Different protein solution samples were treated with HPH at 30, 60, 90, 120 and 150 MPa, and the structure changed under different pressures was analyzed by measuring particle size, zeta potential, Fourier infrared spectrum (FTIR), fluorescence spectrum and scanning electron microscope (SEM).

Enhanced Carrier Diffusion Enables Efficient Back-Contact Perovskite Photovoltaics.

Back-contact architectures offer a promising route to improve the record efficiencies of perovskite solar cells (PSCs) by eliminating parasitic light absorption. However, the performance of back-contact PSCs is limited by inadequate carrier diffusion in perovskite. Here, we report that perovskite films with a preferred out-of-plane orientation show improved carrier dynamic properties.

Single-Crystalline Nanosheets of Hybrid Perovskite Fabricated by a Vapor-Solution Sequential Deposition Route.

Organic-inorganic hybrid perovskite single crystals have attracted much attention due to their superior optoelectronic properties. Herein, we report a facile vapor-solution sequential route to prepare single-crystalline nanosheets of hybrid lead triiodide perovskite. It is found that this two-step deposition is able to fabricate sizeable high-quality single-crystalline nanosheets with no need of delicate control of crystallization conditions such as concentration or temperature for normal single crystal growth.

Thermodynamically Stable Orthorhombic γ-CsPbI Thin Films for High-Performance Photovoltaics.

All-inorganic lead halide perovskites demonstrate improved thermal stability over the organic-inorganic halide perovskites, but the cubic α-CsPbI with the most appropriate bandgap for light harvesting is not structurally stable at room temperature and spontaneously transforms into the undesired orthorhombic δ-CsPbI. Here, we present a new member of black-phase thin films of all-inorganic perovskites for high-efficiency photovoltaics, the orthorhombic γ-CsPbI thin films with intrinsic thermodynamic stability and ideal electronic structure. Exempt from introducing organic ligands or incorporating mixed cations/anions into the crystal lattice, we stabilize the γ-CsPbI thin films by a simple solution process in which a small amount of HO manipulates the size-dependent phase formation through a proton transfer reaction.

Deep Spatial-Temporal Joint Feature Representation for Video Object Detection.

With the development of deep neural networks, many object detection frameworks have shown great success in the fields of smart surveillance, self-driving cars, and facial recognition. However, the data sources are usually videos, and the object detection frameworks are mostly established on still images and only use the spatial information, which means that the feature consistency cannot be ensured because the training procedure loses temporal information. To address these problems, we propose a single, fully-convolutional neural network-based object detection framework that involves temporal information by using Siamese networks.

[Pyrolysates of novel latent fragrant compound 3,6-dimethyl-2,5-pyrazinedicarboxylic acid menthol ester].

In order to develop a new tobacco flavor released at high-temperature, the novel latent fragrant compound 3,6-dimethyl-2,5-pyrazinedicarboxylic acid menthol ester (DPAME) was synthesized by esterification using 2,3,5,6-tetramethylpyrazine and menthol as raw materials. In air atmosphere, the pyrolysis behavior of DPAME was investigated using an on-line pyrolysis-gas chromatography-mass spectrometry (Py-GC-MS) method at three temperature levels of 300, 600 and 900 degrees C, separately. The pyrolysis products were directly introduced into GC-MS and were qualitatively and semi-quantitatively analyzed.

Protic ionic liquids (PILs) are a subgroup of ionic liquids and easily formed by proton transfer from a Brønsted acid to a Brønsted base. Two new crystalline aluminophosphates, [C5H16N2][Al(PO4)(HPO4)] (AlPO-PIL1) and [C5H16N2][Al2(OH)2 (PO4)2] (AlPO-PIL2), are successfully prepared for the first time from a protic ionic liquid, 3-dimethylaminopropylamine acetate. Their structures were determined from single-crystal X-ray diffraction data.
