Intrinsic Solution to the Dilemma between High-Efficiency and External-Field-Free Spin-Orbit Torque Switching Based on Biaxial Devices.

Spin-orbit torque (SOT) is widely considered to be a fast and robust writing scheme for magnetic random-access memories (MRAMs). However, the requirements of field-free switching and high switching efficiency are often incompatible in SOT devices, placing a critical challenge on its improvement. Here we propose that by utilizing biaxial systems the dilemma between high-efficiency and external-field-free SOT switching can be solved intrinsically.

Graves' disease diagnosed nearly six months after microwave ablation of benign thyroid nodules: a case report.

Background: Microwave ablation is a new, minimally invasive technique for the treatment of thyroid nodules. Hyperthyroidism due to destructive thyroiditis is a known risk of microwave ablation, though it occurs in only a minority of cases. We report a rare case of a patient diagnosed with Graves' disease nearly six months after undergoing microwave ablation of a thyroid nodule.

Applied research using the NIOSH lifting equation to optimize the design of shopping trolley for the elderly.

In the context of an aging society, products for the elderly typically need to meet the criteria of ease of use and reduction of physical fatigue. Focusing on elderly shopping scene, combined with the ergonomic principles and JACK simulation software analysis, a method of mapping NIOSH lifting equation to the product optimization design is proposed to optimize the dimensions and styling design of the elderly shopping trolley as a carrier, to optimize length, depth, and basket height from the ground. When the handle height of the elderly shopping cart is adjustable to three levels: 795 mm, 908 mm, and 1021 mm, it can effectively reduce the pressure on the lower limbs.

Methods: A cross-sectional observational study was conducted with 17 AIS and 19 age-matched healthy subjects.

Zoledronic Acid Inhibits Lipopolysaccharide-Induced Osteoclastogenesis by Suppressing Macrophage NLRP3-Mediated Autophagy Pathway.

Introduction: Inflammatory factors leading to bone loss significantly increase the risk of tooth loosening or implantation failure. Zoledronic acid (ZOL) is a widely used medication for effectively inhibiting excessive bone destruction, but its effect on alleviating inflammatory bone loss remains to be elucidated. In this study, we investigated whether ZOL alleviates inflammatory bone resorption through immunomodulatory effect.

Deciphering the atomistic mechanism underlying highly tunable piezoelectric properties in perovskite ferroelectrics via transition metal doping.

Piezoelectricity, a fundamental property of perovskite ferroelectrics, endows the materials at the heart of electromechanical systems spanning from macro to micro/nano scales. Defect engineering strategies, particularly involving heterovalent trace impurities and derived vacancies, hold great potential for adjusting piezoelectric performance. Despite the prevalent use of defect engineering for modification, a comprehensive understanding of the specific features that positively impact material properties is still lacking, this knowledge gap impedes the advancement of a universally applicable defect selection and design strategy.

Experimental and Simulation Study on Failure of Thermoplastic Carbon Fiber Composite Laminates under Low-Velocity Impact.

Numerous studies have demonstrated that under low-velocity, low-energy impact conditions, although the surface damage to fiber-reinforced composite laminates may be minimal, significant internal damage can occur. Consequently, a progressive damage finite element model was specifically developed for thermoplastic carbon fiber-reinforced composite laminates subjected to low-speed impact loads, with the objective of analyzing the damage behavior of laminates under impacts of varying energy levels. The model utilizes a three-dimensional Hashin criterion for predicting intralayer damage initiation, with cohesive elements based on bilinear traction-separation law for predicting interlaminar delamination initiation, and incorporates a damage constitutive model based on equivalent displacement to characterize fiber damage evolution, along with the B-K criterion for interlaminar damage evolution.

Low-Dimensional Gradient Helps Out-of-Distribution Detection.

Detecting out-of-distribution (OOD) samples is essential for ensuring the reliability of deep neural networks (DNNs) in real-world scenarios. While previous research has predominantly investigated the disparity between in-distribution (ID) and OOD data through forward information analysis, the discrepancy in parameter gradients during the backward process of DNNs has received insufficient attention. Existing studies on gradient disparities mainly focus on the utilization of gradient norms, neglecting the wealth of information embedded in gradient directions.

A cocatalytic nanozyme based on metal-organic framework-embedded iron porphyrin for the sensitive detection of Salmonella typhimurium in milk.

The nanozyme, acting as the signal labeling reporter, is widely employed in colorimetric immunoassays due to its exceptional catalytic activity and reliable performance. Nonetheless, when immobilized on the nanozyme's surface, there is a decline in catalytic activity, which hinders its ability to meet the escalating demand for advanced colorimetric immunoassays. Herein, we introduce a novel MILL-88@TcP nanozyme, formed by encapsulating iron porphyrins (TcP) within metal-organic frameworks (MILL-88), where the catalytic activity of TcP is fully preserved through ethanol-induced release.

In total, 360 hybrid grouper were divided into four groups, which were fed the following for 60 days: three received commercial feed with varying concentrations of G1-33 (10, 10, and 10 CFU/g), while a control group received commercial feed.

Multifunctional FeO@CuS nanoparticle-driven colorimetric and photothermal immunochromatographic test strip for the sensitive detection of Salmonella typhimurium in milk.

Magnetic nanoparticles are widely employed as signal labeling reporters in immunochromatographic test strips (ICTS) for detecting foodborne pathogens due to their outstanding anti-interference and magnetic enrichment performance. However, the insufficient colorimetric signal brightness of magnetic nanoparticles results in poor sensitivity, hindering their ability to meet the growing demand for advanced ICTS. Herein, we synthesized FeO@CuS core-shell structure nanoparticles using a facile in-situ growth method.

Decentralized Kernel Ridge Regression Based on Data-Dependent Random Feature.

Random feature (RF) has been widely used for node consistency in decentralized kernel ridge regression (KRR). Currently, the consistency is guaranteed by imposing constraints on coefficients of features, necessitating that the RFs on different nodes are identical. However, in many applications, data on different nodes vary significantly on the number or distribution, which calls for adaptive and data-dependent methods that generate different RFs.

Ultrasensitive dynamic light scattering immunodetection of alpha-fetoprotein using heptamer-amplified nanoparticle crosslinking aggregation.

A novel construction strategy is introduced for an ultrasensitive dynamic light scattering (DLS) immunosensor targeting alpha fetoprotein (AFP). This approach relies on a self-assembled heptamer fusion protein (A1-C4bpα), incorporating the dual functions of multivalent recognition and crosslinking aggregation amplification due to the presence of seven AFP-specific A1 nanobodies on the A1-C4bpα heptamer. Leveraging antibody-functionalized magnetic nanoparticles for target AFP capture and DLS signal output, the proposed heptamer-assisted DLS immunosensor offers high sensitivity, strong specificity, and ease of operation.
