0D hybrid indium halide as a highly efficient X-ray scintillation and ultra-sensitive fluorescent probe.

Halide perovskite nanocrystal (PNC) of 3D CsPbX as a scintillator has aroused intensive attention with advanced applications in radiation detection and X-ray imaging. However, the low light yield and serious toxicity of Pb severely hinder advanced optoelectronic applications. To reduce these fatal shortcomings, a family of new environmentally friendly 0D hybrid lead-free indium halides of [DADPA]InX·HO (DADPA = 3,3'-diaminodipropylamine; X = Cl and Br) was prepared.

Correlation between severity of spinal stenosis and multifidus atrophy in degenerative lumbar spinal stenosis.

Background: Degenerative lumbar spinal stenosis (DLSS) is a common degenerative condition in older adults. Muscle atrophy (MA) is a leading cause of muscle weakness and disability commonly reported in individuals with spinal stenosis. The purpose of this study was to investigate if the MA correlates with the grade of spinal stenosis in patients with DLSS.
