Recent Advances in Structural Design of Carbon/Magnetic Composites and their Electromagnetic Wave Absorption Applications.

Electromagnetic pollution protection and military stealth technologies underscore the urgent need to develop efficient electromagnetic wave-absorbing materials (EWAMs). Traditional EWAMs suffer from single absorption loss mechanisms, poor impedance matching, and weak reflection loss. To date, combining dielectric loss with magnetic loss in EWAMs have proven to be an effective approach to enhancing electromagnetic absorption performance.

The effectiveness and safety of computed tomography-guided hook-wire localization for secondary video-assisted thoracoscopic surgery: a retrospective study.

Background: Computed tomography (CT)-guided hook-wire localization is currently the most commonly used technique for preoperative localization of pulmonary nodules in clinical practice. With the increasing incidence of multiple primary lung cancers and the increasing occurrence of second primary lung cancers or local recurrences after lung cancer surgery, some patients need to undergo an ipsilateral or contralateral second pulmonary resection. In order to reduce the surgical difficulty of the second operation and accurately guide the surgical resection, preoperative localization of some nodules is necessary.

Eleutherlenes A-D, Diverse Types of Naphthalene Derivatives with Anti-inflammatory Activity from .

Eleutherlene A (), an unprecedented carbon skeleton featuring an aryl-fused 6-methyl-2,7-dioxabicyclo[3.2.1]octane unit, and eleutherlene B (), a naphthoquinone derivative with interesting ring fusion of an α,β-unsaturated γ-lactam and a tetrahydropyran moiety, along with two novel naphthoquinone alkaloids, eleutherlenes C () and D (), were isolated from and identified.

Quality of life, pain, depression, fatigue and sleep in patients with remission or mild fibromyalgia: a comparison with remission or low disease activity rheumatoid arthritis and healthy controls.

Background: Fibromyalgia is a chronic condition marked by widespread pain and various accompanying symptoms. Compared to healthy individuals and other rheumatic disease patients, it leads to more severe symptoms and a lower quality of life. Whether fibromyalgia patients in a mild activity or remission stage still experience core symptoms remains unclear.
