To realize a wearable health monitoring system, a piezoresistive material capable of detecting very small mechanical strains is needed. In this study, an amorphous CrGeTe thin film was deposited on a polyimide film by sputtering, and the piezoresistive properties were investigated. In experiments, the CrGeTe/polyimide double-layer foil exhibited an outstanding piezoresistive performance as evidenced by the appearance of self-healing cracks during tensile tests and a remarkably large gauge factor of 60 000 in resistance change measurements.

Article Synopsis
  • Diabetic retinopathy (DR) is a severe complication of diabetes, linked to changes in O-GlcNAc modification, but its specific role in DR is not fully established.
  • This research investigates the impact of regulating O-GlcNAc through AMP-activated protein kinase (AMPK) activation, using both in vitro and in vivo models to explore potential clinical treatment avenues for DR.
  • Findings indicate that high glucose levels increase O-GlcNAc modifications, leading to retinal degeneration, but activating AMPK can counteract these detrimental effects, suggesting a protective mechanism through AMPK activation.

Article Synopsis
  • 2D van der Waals transition metal di-chalcogenides (TMDs) are attracting attention for nonvolatile memory due to their adjustable electrical properties and scalability, but their complicated switching mechanisms and fabrication methods challenge mass production.
  • Sputtering is a viable method for producing large-area 2D vdW TMDs, yet the high melting points (over 1000 °C) of these materials necessitate high temperatures for proper crystallinity.
  • This study highlights NbTe as a suitable option among low-temperature 2D vdW tetra-chalcogenides since it has a low crystallization onset temperature of 447 °C, allowing for improved properties in phase-change memory applications, such as reduced energy requirements

The severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus (SARS-CoV-2) has spread rapidly around the world. In order to prevent the spread of infection, city blockades and immigration restrictions have been introduced in each country, but these measures have a severe serious impact on the economy. This paper examines the possibility of both harvesting vibration energy and detecting mass by using a magnetostrictive alloy.

Undoubtedly, the coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19) has received the greatest concern with a global impact, and this situation will continue for a long period of time. Looking back in history, airborne transimission diseases have caused huge casualties several times. COVID-19 as a typical airborne disease caught our attention and reminded us of the importance of preventing such diseases.

Carbamazepine (CBZ) antibiotic organic contamination wastewater poses a huge threat to environmental safety. An advanced oxidation technology (Fe/PDS/US) of using ultrasound (US) enhanced zero-valent iron/potassium persulfate (Fe/PDS) can remove CBZ effectively. The optimal reaction conditions were determined by exploring the effect of single-factor experimental conditions such as ultrasonic power, ultrasonic frequency, CBZ concentration, solution pH, PDS dosage, and Fe dosage on the removal of CBZ.

It is well known that the curing residual stress induced during a fabrication process has a great influence on the performance of piezoelectric composite devices. The purpose of this work was to evaluate the residual thermal stress of lead zirconate titanate piezoelectric fiber aluminum (Al) matrix (piezoelectric fiber/Al) composites generated during fabrication and to understand the effect of the residual thermal stress on the electromechanical response. The three-dimensional finite element method was employed, and the residual stress generated during the solidification process of the Al matrix was calculated.

Cellulose nanofiber (CNF) has been accepted as a valid nanofiller that can improve the mechanical properties of composite materials by mechanical and chemical methods. The purpose of this work is to numerically and experimentally evaluate the mechanical behavior of CNF-reinforced polymer composites under tensile loading. Finite element analysis (FEA) was conducted using a model for the representative volume element of CNF/epoxy composites to determine the effective Young's modulus and the stress state within the composites.

A highly site-selective N-heterocyclic carbene (NHC)-catalyzed benzoin-type cyclization of unsymmetrical dialdoses is developed to enable a divergent cyclitol synthesis. The choice of chiral NHCs and protecting groups affects the site-selectivity. The resulting inososes are converted into epi-, muco- and myo-inositols, and their chiral protected derivatives are formed in good yields.

An N-heterocyclic carbene promotes cyclization of sulfonylalkynols and sulfonylalkynamides that accompanies 1,2-migration of the sulfonyl groups. This reaction provides a novel access to oxa- and azacycles possessing a pendent vinyl sulfone functionality, which, in turn, is amenable for further transformations.

Objective: To assess left ventricular (LV) diastolic function in patients with dermatomyositis (DM) without clinically evident cardiovascular (CV) disease and to estimate whether there is an association between the duration of DM and LV diastolic dysfunction (LVDD).

Methods: The study included 51 patients with DM (43 women and 8 men) who had no clinically evident CV disease and 51 age-matched and sex-matched healthy controls. Echocardiographic and Doppler studies were conducted in all patients and controls.

Objective: To establish a community-based management model for heart failure patients under the professional guidance of upper first-class hospital staff.

Methods: Two hundreds heart failure (New York Heart Function II-IV) patients aged from 35 to 85 in two communities of Chengdu city were divided into two groups by cluster randomization: the management group and the control group. The community hospital doctors were trained for the evaluation and management of heart failure according standardized guidelines by upper first-class hospital doctors, and responsible for the management of patients in the management group.
