Knowledge, Attitude, and Practice Toward Pelvic Floor Dysfunction Among Postpartum and Postmenopausal Women: A Cross-sectional Study.

Introduction And Hypothesis: This research sought to explore the knowledge, attitude, and practice (KAP) toward pelvic floor dysfunction (PFD) among postpartum and postmenopausal women.

Methods: This cross-sectional study was performed among postpartum and postmenopausal women between May and August 2023. Demographic data, along with KAP scores, were collected using a self-designed questionnaire-based approach.

Significant Efficiency Enhancements in Non-Y Series Acceptors by the Addition of Outer Side Chains.

Most current highly efficient organic solar cells utilize small molecules like Y6 and its derivatives as electron acceptors in the photoactive layer. In this work, a small molecule acceptor, SC8-IT4F, is developed through outer side chain engineering on the terminal thiophene of a conjugated 6,12-dihydro-dithienoindeno[2,3-d:2',3'-d']-s-indaceno[1,2-b:5,6-b']dithiophene (IDTT) central core. Compared to the reference molecule C8-IT4F, which lacks outer side chains, SC8-IT4F displays notable differences in molecule geometry (as shown by simulations), thermal behavior, single-crystal packing, and film morphology.

Specific and sensitive detection of bovine coronavirus using CRISPR-Cas13a combined with RT-RAA technology.

Introduction: Bovine coronavirus (BCoV) is an important pathogen of enteric and respiratory disease in cattle, resulting in huge economic losses to the beef and dairy industries worldwide. A specific and sensitive detection assay for BCoV is critical to the early-stage disease prevention and control.

Methods: We established a specific, sensitive, and stable assay for BCoV nucleic acid detection based on CRISPR/Cas13a combined with reverse transcription recombinase-aided amplification (RT-RAA) technology.

A national cross-sectional study on latent profile analysis of occupational fatigue among Chinese nurses in the early post-COVID-19 era.

Background: Occupational fatigue is a widespread condition within the nursing workforce, adversely affecting both nurses' health and patient safety. The protracted duration of the COVID-19 pandemic, approaching 3 years, has exacerbated the challenges faced by nurses globally. The escalation in patient numbers and the high incidence of infections among healthcare workers have intensified occupational fatigue.

Flexible Eyelid Pressure and Motion Dual-Mode Sensor Using Electric Breakdown-Induced Piezoresistivity and Electrical Potential Sensing.

Multiple ocular surface disorders are associated with the mechanical properties of the interface between the eyelid and cornea. Determining eyelid pressure is vital for diagnosing and preventing these disorders. However, current measurements rely on flat piezoresistive pressure sensor arrays that lack eye-motion sensing capabilities, resulting in discomfort and measurement inaccuracies.
