Design and Simulation of High-Performance D-Type Dual-Mode PCF-SPR Refractive Index Sensor Coated with Au-TiO Layer.

A novel surface plasmon resonance (SPR) refractive index (RI) sensor based on the D-type dual-mode photonic crystal fiber (PCF) is proposed. The sensor employs a side-polished few-mode PCF that facilitates the transmission of the fundamental and second-order modes, with an integrated microfluidic channel positioned directly above the fiber core. This design minimizes the distance to the analyte and maximizes the interaction between the optical field and the analyte, thereby enhancing the SPR effect and resonance loss for improved sensing performance.

Engineering of MnTe/MnO Heterostructures with Interfacial Electric Field Modulation for Efficient and Durable Li-O Batteries.

Design and synthesis of highly active and robust bifunctional cathode catalysts for oxygen reduction reaction (ORR) and oxygen evolution reaction (OER) are of vital significance for practical applications of lithium-oxygen (Li-O) batteries. Herein, a built-in electric field (BIEF) strategy is reported to fabricate MnTe/MnO heterostructures with a large work function difference (ΔΦ) as a bifunctional cathode catalyst in Li-O batteries. The MnTe/MnO heterostructures with nanosheets and microporous structures result in an abundance of exposed active sites and facilitate mass transfer.

Molecular Mechanism of ARF5-AHL15-Mediated Auxin-Induced Embryogenic Cell Formation in Apples.

The somatic embryo (SE) has bipolar characteristics, which is an ideal material for large-scale microproduction of woody plants represented by apples, and the somatic embryo is also an excellent receptor for genetic transformation. The formation of embryogenic cells is a prerequisite for somatic embryogenesis to occur. The embryogenic cells of apples cannot be obtained without induction of exogenous auxin, but how the auxin pathway regulates this process remains unknown.

Effects of host plants on aphid feeding behavior, fitness, and Buchnera aphidicola titer.

Aphids are sap-feeding plant pests that depend on their symbiotic relationships with the primary endosymbiont Buchnera aphidicola to adapt to impoverished diets. However, how the host plant affects the aphid primary symbiont and aphid adaptation to host plant transfer are poorly known. In this study, aphid symbiont screening and genotype identification were used to establish 2 aphid strains (Rhopalosiphum maidis [Rm] and Rhopalosiphum padi [Rp] strains) containing only Buchnera without any secondary symbionts for both wheat aphid species (R.

Higher emotional synchronization is modulated by relationship quality in romantic relationships and not in close friendships.

Emotions are fundamental to social interaction and deeply intertwined with interpersonal dynamics, especially in romantic relationships. Although the neural basis of interaction processes in romance has been widely explored, the underlying emotions and the connection between relationship quality and neural synchronization remain less understood. Our study employed EEG hyperscanning during a non-interactive video-watching paradigm to compare the emotional coordination between romantic couples and close friends.

Ultrasound-guided Hydrogel Injection Provides Better Therapeutic Effects After Hand Tendon Surgery Than Intraoperative Injection: A Randomized Controlled Trial.

Background: Hydrogels are used to provide a barrier against peritendinous adhesion formation, but when implanted intraoperatively, they degrade rapidly and aggravate early inflammatory pain. It is uncertain whether clinical efficacy can be improved by avoiding the inflammatory phase when hydrogels are delivered during adhesion formation.

Questions/purposes: (1) Compared with intraoperative hydrogel application, does ultrasound-guided postoperative application result in better total active motion (TAM) at 12 months after tendon injury? (2) Does ultrasound-guided postoperative application of hydrogels result in lower pain, better function, and better satisfaction?

Methods: This open-label, prospective, single-center, randomized controlled trial was conducted by reparative and reconstructive surgeons at the National Orthopedics Clinical Medical Center, Shanghai, People's Republic of China.
