Cathode composites were fabricated using the nuclear growth (SEED) method. Compared to mortar mixing, the SEED method demonstrated higher cycle stability, with a 90LiNiMnCoO-10LiPSI composite retaining 99.7% discharge capacity after six cycles compared to 66.

Air-stable LiSbS-LiI SEs were synthesized using a unique process in an aqueous solution under ambient air, i.e.

Even though aPD-1 and aPD-L1 mAbs target the same PD-1/PD-L1 axis, it is still unclear whether both mAbs exert equivalent pharmacological activity in patients who are sensitive to PD-1/PD-L1 blockade therapy, as there is no direct comparison of their pharmacokinetics (PK) and antitumor effects. Therefore, we evaluated the differences between both mAbs in PK and therapeutic effects in PD-1/PD-L1 blockade-sensitive mouse models.

However, exposure to unfamiliar environments during simulation can cause excessive stress among students, possibly leading to unnatural speech/behavior and poor skill learning (Yerkes-Dodson's law). Thus, assessing students' stress in a simulation can provide educators with a better understanding of their mental state.
