As an innovative renewable energy harvester, the tribovoltaic nanogenerator (TVNG) with lower impedance and DC characteristics has attracted much attention. To alleviate the issues of severe wear for hard-hard semiconductor materials, here, a soft ion dielectric material and semiconductor TVNG based on n-Si/gel polymer electrolyte (GPE) (GPE-TVNG) is proposed. A solid ionic electric double layer (i-EDL) model is established to systematically explore the generation mechanism as well.

Based on the working mechanism, the output performance of TENGs heavily relies on the triboelectric materials used. The modification of triboelectric materials is the most efficient way to improve the output performance of TENGs.

However, the identification approach of intersubsegmental veins has not been reported. This study aimed to supplement the identification approach of intersubsegmental veins and the classification pattern of peripheral segmental veins by using three-dimensional computed tomography bronchography and angiography (3D-CTBA).

VPI is associated with a worse prognosis of LUAD; therefore, early and accurate detection is critical for effective treatment planning. A total of 112 patients with preoperative computed tomography presentation of adjacent pleura and postoperative pathological findings confirmed as invasive LUAD were retrospectively enrolled.

Naples Prognostic Score (NPS) is a novel score based on inflammatory-nutritional indicators. We aimed to analyze the prognostic value of the Naples Prognostic Score in non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC) patients following surgery. A total of 319 NSCLCpatients following surgery were analyzed in the retrospective cohort study.

The Naples prognostic score (NPS), based on nutritional and inflammatory status, has been identified as a prognostic impactor in several malignancies. However, the prognostic role of NPS in SCLC has not been elucidated.
