A literature review was undertaken to examine the risk of developing pelvic inflammatory disease (PID) in women infected with Chlamydia trachomatis. A search of OVID Medline and Embase databases was conducted for studies published between 1946 and 26 June 2023. This review looked solely at prospective cohort study designs and searched reference lists of studies selected for inclusion.

The highly adaptable optoelectronic and morphological properties of non-fullerene acceptors (NFAs) have made them a prominent research topic in the organic solar cell (OSC) field. This work describes the design of new molecules and investigates the potential optoelectronic aspects of remodified Y-series NFAs endowing with five new semi-circular shaped derivatives (BTPB1-BTPB5) based on the DFT-based quantum simulations. The designed molecules possess higher-lying LUMO energy levels with narrowed bandgaps and excellent coherence between the acceptor and core via inserted bridges.

All the optoelectronic properties of the molecular geometries were computed using DFT and time dependent-DFT approaches. The influence of terminal acceptors on the bandgaps, absorption, hole and electron mobilities, charge transfer capabilities, fill factor, dipole moment, etc.
