Background: The proportion of short video addiction (SVA) is increasing among different populations, and its impact on the adolescent group has attracted research attention in recent years. To better explore the heterogeneity of individuals addicted to short videos and the antecedents of their addiction, the present study used quantitative research to conduct a latent profile analysis (LPA) of college students' SVA from the perspective of internal and external resources.

Methods: Referring to the Interaction of Person-Affect-Cognition-Execution (I-PACE) theory, this study explores the relationship between subgroups of SVA on the one hand and subjective well-being (SWB), social support (SS), core self-evaluation (CSE), and extraversion on the other using latent profile analysis.

Article Synopsis
  • 2D hybrid perovskites with quantum-well structures show great promise in optoelectronics due to their stability and electrical properties, but face issues with ion migration and chemical stability when enhancing electrical performance.
  • This study introduces a new approach to balance electrical properties and stability by substituting ethylammonium cations with 2-bromoethylamine cations in creating (Br-EA)PbBr single crystals.
  • The modifications lead to improved X-ray detector performance, achieving high sensitivity and low dark current drift, while also revealing novel interactions from molecular dipoles that could guide future perovskite applications.

Background: A recent study has shown that niacin supplementation induces the conversion of type II to type I muscle fibres, thereby promoting a phenotypic shift in oxidative metabolism in porcine skeletal muscle. These effects may be mediated by modulation of the AMPK1/SIRT1 pathway, which activates peroxisome proliferator-activated receptor coactivator-1α (PGC-1α), a key regulator of fibre conversion, thereby promoting skeletal muscle mitochondrial biogenesis and myofibre conversion. In this study, we explored how niacin (NA) supplementation impacts the quality of meat and the characteristics of muscle fibers in Taihe Black-bone Silky Fowls (TBsf) exposed to heat conditions.

Background: Nephrotic syndrome (NS) can occur as a paraneoplastic disorder in association with various types of carcinoma. However, paraneoplastic nephrotic syndrome (PNS) is often misdiagnosed as idiopathic nephrotic syndrome or as an adverse effect of oncology treatment, leading to delayed diagnosis and suboptimal treatment. The characteristics of NS associated with solid malignancies are not yet elucidated.

The critical dimension (CD) of lithographic patterns is the most significant indicator for evaluating the imaging performance of photoresists, and its value is seriously affected by process conditions. However, the lithographic imaging system is highly nonlinear, and extensive exposure experiments are needed to obtain the desired CD. This consumes lots of time, manpower, and cost in screening for optimal process conditions.

Resolution, line edge/width roughness, and sensitivity (RLS) are critical indicators for evaluating the imaging performance of resists. As the technology node gradually shrinks, stricter indicator control is required for high-resolution imaging. However, current research can improve only part of the RLS indicators of resists for line patterns, and it is difficult to improve the overall imaging performance of resists in extreme ultraviolet lithography.

Increased globalization in urban areas raise energy consumption that leads to high carbon dioxide discharge and degrade environmental quality. Other economic activities also produce emission; however, a well-established institutional framework can overcome the issues of environmental degradation and minimize the effect of harmful factors on the environment. In this regard, this study investigates the effect of urbanization, energy consumption, and industrialization on carbon dioxide emission by taking into consideration the role of institutional quality in the Belt and Road Initiative (BRI) countries for the period of 2002 to 2019.

The superior performance of evolutionary multitasking (EMT) algorithms is largely owing to the potential synergy between tasks. Current EMT algorithms only involve a unidirectional process of transferring individuals from the source task to the target task. This method does not consider the search preference of the target task in the process of finding transferred individuals; therefore, the potential synergy between tasks is not fully utilized.

The line edge roughness (LER) is one of the most critical indicators of photoresist imaging performance, and its measurement using a reliable method is of great significance for lithography. However, most studies only investigate photoresist resolution and sensitivity because LER measurements require an expensive and not widely available critical dimension scanning electron microscopy (SEM) technology; thus, the imaging performance of photoresist has not been adequately evaluated. Here, we report an image processing software developed for offline calculation of LER that can analyze lithographic patterns with resolutions up to ∼15 nm.

Lithographic patterning, which utilizes the solubility switch of photoresists to convert optical signals into nanostructures on the substrate, is the primary top-down approach for nanoscale fabrication. However, the low light/electron-energy conversion efficiency severely limits the throughput of lithography. Thiol-ene reaction, as a photoinitiated radical addition reaction, is widely known as click reaction in the field of chemistry due to its extremely high efficiency.

The chemical corrosion aging of plutonium is a very important topic. It is easy to be corroded and produces oxidation products of various valence states because of its 5f electron orbit between local and non-local. On the one hand, the phase diagram of plutonium and oxygen is complex, so there is still not enough research on typical structural phases.

Multi-tasking optimization algorithm attracts much attention because the knowledge transfer between tasks enables the algorithm to process multiple related tasks simultaneously. However, negative knowledge transfer occasionally occurs, which may weaken the performance of the algorithm. To reduce the impact of negative knowledge transfer, a multi-objective multi-tasking optimization algorithm (IM-MFEA) based on inverse model mapping and an objective transformation strategy is proposed.
