Hydrophobic PU fabric with synergistic conductive networks for boosted high sensitivity, wide linear-range wearable strain sensor.

Strain sensing fabrics are able to sense the deformation of the outside world, bringing more accurate and real-time monitoring and feedback to users. However, due to the lack of clear sensing mechanism for high sensitivity and high linearity carbon matrix composites, the preparation of high performance strain sensing fabric weaving is still a major challenge. Here, an elastic polyurethane(PU)-based conductive fabric(GCPU) with high sensitivity, high linearity and good hydrophobicity is prepared by a novel synergistic conductive network strategy.

Reliability assessments of using different heavy metals from remote sediment records to reconstruct historical pollution.

Interpreting heavy metal variations in sedimentary records is an important approach to understand historical pollution. However, few studies have investigated the reliability of different heavy metals in sedimentary records for reconstructing historical pollution. This study retrieved two adjacent lakes' sediment cores from a remote area in North China and investigated their temporal changes in excessive metal fluxes.

Effect of Long-Term Taurine Supplementation on the Lipid and Glycaemic Profile in Adults with Overweight or Obesity: A Systematic Review and Meta-Analysis.

Background: Taurine has been demonstrated to regulate and improve metabolic health. However, physiological and pathological differences among individuals with overweight or obesity may result in varied responses to taurine supplementation. This study aims to estimate the effects of long-term taurine supplementation on blood lipids, glycemia, and insulin sensitivity in adults with overweight or obesity through a systematic review and meta-analysis.

Evaluation of the cross-immunity between Mycobacterium tuberculosis and Mycobacterium abscessus in vitro.

Mycobacterium tuberculosis (M. tuberculosis) and Mycobacterium abscessus (M. abscessus) are important pathogens that can cause lung diseases.

The clinical features and outcomes of elderly patients with acute myeloid leukemia: a real word research.

The aim of this study was to investigate the clinical features and outcomes of elderly patients with acute myeloid leukemia (AML) from a real word research. The clinical data of 223 consecutive elderly patients (aged ≥ 60 years) who were newly diagnosed with AML at our medical center between July 2017 and June 2022, including their clinical characteristics, genetic mutations, and survival outcomes, were retrospectively analyzed. Among the 223 patients (median age 67 years), 180 (80.
