A Predictive Model for Pulmonary Aspergillosis in ICU Patients: A Multicenter Retrospective Cohort Study.

Background: Several predictive models for invasive pulmonary aspergillosis (IPA) based on clinical characteristics have been reported. Nevertheless, the significance of other concurrently detected microorganisms in IPA patients is equally noteworthy. This study aimed to develop a risk prediction model for IPA by integrating clinical and microbiological characteristics.

Dual-Source Evaporation Processed Novel NaBiS Absorber Material for Eco-Friendly and Stable Photovoltaics.

Exploring and developing novel, low-cost, and environmentally friendly photovoltaic materials is a vital trend in the evolution of solar cell technology. The distinctive properties of alkali bismuth ternary sulfides have spurred increased research and application in optoelectronic devices. In this study, a novel method is reported for preparing NaBiS film by sequential thermal evaporation of NaS and BiS layers followed by heating post-treatment for the first time, as well as the preparation of solar cells with NaBiS as the light-absorbing layer.

Severe central nervous system injury in 9 children with COVID-19.

Purpose: To investigate the clinical features and prognosis of severe central nervous system (CNS) injury in children caused by coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19).

Method: We retrospectively studied confirmed pediatric cases of COVID-19 complicated with CNS injury.

Results: Nine patients diagnosed with COVID-19 complicated with severe CNS injury were admitted to the pediatric intensive care unit of the Affiliated Hospital of Jining University from December 1, 2022 to January 12, 2023.

Non-invasive Assessment of Human Epidermal Growth Factor Receptor 2 Expression in Gastric Cancer Based on Deep Learning: A Computed Tomography-based Multicenter Study.

Rationale And Objectives: The expression of human epidermal growth factor receptor 2 (HER2) in gastric cancer is closely associated with its treatment outcomes and prognosis. This study aims to develop and validate a HER2 prediction model based on computed tomography (CT). Additionally, the study evaluates the robustness of the proposed model.

Expansion counteraction effect assisted vanadate with rich oxygen vacancies as a high cycling stability cathode for aqueous zinc-ion batteries.

In this study, a novel tunnel structure vanadate NaVO (NaVO) cathode for aqueous zinc ion batteries (AZIBs) is facilely fabricated by thermal decomposition of polyoxovanadate containing NH ions. The NaVO cathode is characterized by abundant oxygen vacancies and nanometer dimensions. These attributes can offer extra reaction sites and suppress structural collapse during circulation.
