Temperature-Controlled Radiofrequency Treatment of the Nasal Valve in Patients With Nasal Obstruction: Long-Term Outcomes.

Objective: To evaluate the efficacy, safety, and durability of temperature-controlled radiofrequency (TCRF) treatment of the nasal valve in patients with severe or extreme nasal airway obstruction (NAO).

Study Design: A long-term, prospective, multicenter, single-blind, randomized controlled trial.

Setting: Sixteen otolaryngologic clinics and academic centers.

Synergistic Anion and Solvent-Derived Interphases Enable Lithium-Ion Batteries under Extreme Conditions.

Lithium-ion batteries (LIBs) face increasingly stringent demands as their application expands into new areas, including extreme temperatures and fast charging. To meet these demands, the electrolyte should enable fast lithium-ion transport and form stable interphases on electrodes simultaneously. In practice, however, improving one aspect often compromises another.

Clinical Outcomes After Innovative Multipoint Impedance-Controlled Radiofrequency Ablation of the Posterior Nasal Nerve for Treatment of Chronic Rhinitis.

Chronic rhinitis substantially impacts a person's quality of life. We evaluated a novel, multipoint, impedance-controlled, radiofrequency ablation device for the treatment of chronic rhinitis. This was a prospective, multicenter, single-arm clinical study of posterior nasal nerve ablation in adults with chronic rhinitis.

Interdependence of Support Wettability - Electrodeposition Rate- Sodium Metal Anode and SEI Microstructure.

This study examines how current collector support chemistry (sodiophilic intermetallic NaTe vs. sodiophobic baseline Cu) and electrodeposition rate affect microstructure of sodium metal and its solid electrolyte interphase (SEI). Capacity and current (6 mAh cm, 0.
