Rehabilitation - definition for research purposes.

Introduction And Objective: The Rehabilitation Definition for Research Purposes (RDRP), published in 2022 by Cochrane Rehabilitation, addresses discrepancies resulting from the multiplicity and heterogeneity of rehabilitation definitions hitherto used in the contexts of science, health, and social/legal aspects. The RDRP, based on the paradigm of the International Classification of Functioning, Disability, and Health, provides clear-cut criteria for what rehabilitation includes and excludes. The final version of the RDRP achieved brad agreement among global stakeholders.

Assessment of wafer scale MoS atomic layers grown by metal-organic chemical vapor deposition using organo-metal, organo-sulfide, and HS precursors.

Transition Metal Dichalcogenides (TMDs) are a unique class of materials that exhibit attractive electrical and optical properties which have generated significant interest for applications in microelectronics, optoelectronics, energy storage, and sensing. Considering the potential of these materials to impact such applications, it is crucial to develop a reliable and scalable synthesis process that is compatible with modern industrial manufacturing methods. Metal-organic chemical vapor deposition (MOCVD) offers an ideal solution to produce TMDs, due to its compatibility with large-scale production, precise layer control, and high material purity.

Lasing from a Large-Area 2D Material Enabled by a Dual-Resonance Metasurface.

Semiconducting transition metal dichalcogenides (TMDs) have gained significant attention as a gain medium for nanolasers, owing to their unique ability to be easily placed and stacked on virtually any substrate. However, the atomically thin nature of the active material in existing TMD lasers and the limited size due to mechanical exfoliation presents a challenge, as their limited output power makes it difficult to distinguish between true laser operation and other "laser-like" phenomena. Here, we present room temperature lasing from a large-area tungsten disulfide (WS) monolayer, grown by a wafer-scale chemical vapor deposition (CVD) technique.

The 4DBODY system as a new tool for chest mobility assessment in patients with ankylosing spondylitis.

Introduction: Ankylosing spondylitis (AS) is a chronic inflammatory, progressive disease, which leads to deterioration of chest and spine mobility and decrease of physical capacity with abnormal chest movement patterns. We aimed to assess the usefulness of the 4DBODY technology for evaluation of the effectiveness of AS treatment.

Material And Methods: The 4DBODY technology was assessed on single AS patient with axial involvement.

Multispectral Portable Fibre-Optic Reflectometer for the Classification of the Origin of Chicken Eggshells in the Case of Infections.

The proper classification of the origins of food products is a crucial issue all over the world nowadays. In this paper, the authors present a device-a multispectral portable fibre-optic reflectometer and signal processing patch-together with a machine-learning algorithm for the classification of the origins of chicken eggshells in the case of infection. The sensor device was developed based on previous studies with a continuous spectrum in transmittance and selected spectral lines in reflectance.
