The gas sensitivity of field-effect structures with 2D-MoS channels selectively grown between Mo electrodes using the Mo-CVD method was investigated by measuring the effect of molecular adsorption from air on the device source-drain current ( ). The channels were composed of interconnected atomically thin MoS grains, with their density and average thickness varied by choosing two different distances (15 and 20 μm) between the Mo contacts. A high response to the tested stimuli, including molecule adsorption, illumination and gate voltage changes, was observed.

Understanding their interplay is essential for enhancing early detection and developing personalized treatment strategies. This study aims to develop a comprehensive patient profiling model by comparing non-melanoma skin cancer (NMSC) and colorectal cancer (CRC).

The primary objective was to evaluate the effectiveness of the treatments applied, including grafting procedures and their impact on long-term prognosis. Material and The cases of 80 children with burns of varying severity were retrospectively analyzed.

The article presents the case of a 17-year-old patient with burns after electric shock (27,000 volts), with a burned area of approximately 72%, 3rd degree, segment IIB, with ABSI score=12, who was treated in a centre dedicated to paediatric burn patients. The use of treatment of paediatric burns not only enhances the quality of healthcare but also has the potential to reduce suffering and improve the chances of recovery for children who go through such traumatic experiences.
