Lightweight, breathable and self-cleaning polypyrrole-modified multifunctional cotton fabric for flexible electromagnetic interference shielding.

The thriving of wearable electronics and the emerging new requirements for electromagnetic interference (EMI) shielding have driven the innovation of EMI shielding materials towards lightweight, wearability and multifunctionality. Herein, the hierarchical polypyrrole nanotubes (PNTs)/PDMS structures are rationally constructed on the textile for obtaining multifunctional and flexible EMI shielding textiles by in-situ polymerization and surface coating. The modified cotton fabric possesses a conductivity of about 2715.

Design and Experimental Research of 3-RRS Parallel Ankle Rehabilitation Robot.

The ankle is a crucial joint that supports the human body weight. An ankle sprain will adversely affect the patient's daily life, so it is of great significance to ensure its strength. To help patients with ankle dysfunction to carry out effective rehabilitation training, the bone structure and motion mechanism of the ankle were analyzed in this paper.

Stiffness Analysis of Parallel Cable-Driven Upper Limb Rehabilitation Robot.

This paper studies the stiffness of the parallel cable-driven upper limb rehabilitation robot (PCUR). Firstly, it was derived that the static stiffness expression of the PCUR was composed of platform pose stiffness and cable pose stiffness . It indicated that the static stiffness of the PCUR was related to the cable tension, the arrangement of the cable, and the cable stiffness.

Identification of six serum antigens and autoantibodies for the detection of early stage epithelial ovarian carcinoma by bioinformatics analysis and liquid chip analysis.

The early detection of ovarian cancer is critical for improving the prognosis of patients, but there are currently insufficient tumor biomarkers for early detection owing to their low diagnostic sensitivity and specificity. The aim of the present study was to investigate the use of the serum antigens C-C motif chemokine ligand 18 and C-X-C motif chemokine ligand 1, and autoantibodies C1D, transmembrane 4 L six family member 1, zinc finger protein 675 and fragile X mental retardation 1 autosomal homolog 1, for the early screening of epithelial ovarian cancer (EOC). The expression of these sex genes/proteins in ovarian cancer and normal ovarian tissue was examined, and the potential functions of the six genes/proteins in ovarian cancer were analyzed by bioinformatics.
