Superconductivity Above 100 K Predicted in Carbon-Cage Network.

To explore carbide superconductors with higher transition temperature, two novel carbon structures of cage-network are designed and their superconductivity is studied by doping metals. MC and MC are respectively identified as C and C cage-network structures. This study finds that both carbon structures drive strong electron-phonon interaction and can exhibit superconductivity above liquid nitrogen temperature.

Hierarchical NiO nanotube arrays/CoP nanosheets heterostructure enables robust alkaline hydrogen evolution reaction.

Rational design of low-cost and high-efficiency electrocatalysts for hydrogen evolution reaction (HER) is critical for scalable and sustainable hydrogen production from economical water-alkali splitting. Herein, density functional theory (DFT) calculations reveal that coupling NiO and CoP could effectively boost overall HER kinetics through lowing the HO dissociation barrier, accelerating the OH* transfer process, and providing the rapid H* migration kinetics as well as the appropriate H* energetics. Based on these findings, we successfully prepared a three-dimensional (3D) self-supported electrode of ultrathin CoP nanosheets directly grown on the surface-oxidized Ni nanotube arrays via a simple and scalable electrochemical synthesis method.

A Deep Neural Network-Based Model for Quantitative Evaluation of the Effects of Swimming Training.

This paper analyzes the quantitative assessment model of the swimming training effect based on the deep neural network by constructing a deep neural network model and designing a quantitative assessment model of the swimming training effect. This paper addresses the problem of not considering the influence of the uncertainties existing in the virtual environment when evaluating swimming training and adds the power of the delays in the actual training operation environment, which is used to improve the objectivity and usability of swimming training evaluation results. To better measure the degree of influence of uncertainties, a training evaluation software module is developed to validate the usability of the simulated training evaluation method using simulated case data and compare it with the data after training evaluation using the unimproved evaluation method to verify the correctness and objectivity of the evaluation method in this paper.

Effects of perioperative managements on ocular surface microbiota in intravitreal injection patients.

Aim: To investigate the effects of on ocular surface microbiota in patients who received intravitreal injections.

Methods: Samples of ocular surface microbiota were obtained from 41 eyes of 41 patients who visited the Department of Ophthalmology. Patients were separated for three groups.

Rationale and study design for one-stop assessment of renal artery stenosis and renal microvascular perfusion with contrast-enhanced ultrasound for patients with suspected renovascular hypertension.

Background: Renal artery stenosis (RAS) is always associated with abnormalities in renal microvascular perfusion (RMP). However, few imaging methods can simultaneously evaluate the degree of luminal stenosis and RMP. Thus, this study will aim to evaluate the feasibility of using contrast-enhanced ultrasound (CEUS) for assessing both RAS and RMP to achieve a one-stop assessment of patients with suspected renovascular hypertension.
