Acupuncture for gait disturbance of patients with subacute and chronic stroke: a systematic review and meta-analysis protocol.

Introduction: Hemiparetic gait is one of the most common sequelae of a stroke. Acupuncture has shown potential in correcting hemiplegic gait patterns and improving motor function recovery after stroke. However, controversial findings and a lack of supportive evidence on the effectiveness of acupuncture for post-stroke hemiplegia.

Prognostic and immunological potential of PPM1G in hepatocellular carcinoma.

Liver hepatocellular carcinoma (LIHC) remains one of the most common causes of cancer death. Prior research suggested that the PPM1G gene is involved in LIHC. To explore the role of PPM1G in LIHC, we used several online databases.

Analysis and optimization of alloyed Al-p region and rear contacts for highly efficient industrial n-type silicon solar cells.

This paper aims to develop high quality screen-printed Al emitters and improve the interface condition of rear contacts in industrial silicon solar cells. We propose to introduce an ultra-thin SiO buffer layer between the silicon bulk and metal contact during the fabrication process. A post-annealing strategy is adapted to further modify the Al doping profiles.
