Two-dimensional (2D) hybrid materials, particularly those based on boron nitride (BN) and graphene oxide (GO), have attracted significant attention for energy applications owing to their distinct structural and electronic properties. BN/GO composites uniquely combine the mechanical strength, thermal stability and electrical insulation of BN with the high conductivity and flexibility of GO, creating advanced materials ideal for the fabrication of batteries, supercapacitors and fuel cells. These hybrids offer synergistic effects, enhanced charge transport, increased surface area, and improved chemical stability, making them promising candidates for high-performance energy systems.

A new focussed ultrasound surgery (FUS) transducer for soft tissue ablation is proposed, with a miniaturised configuration that can be readily integrated with a surgical robot. The transducer fills a gap in FUS technology at this size, with capability for acoustic focus steering within a very simple transducer configuration. Miniaturisation is enabled by the incorporation of an acoustic Fresnel lens as the focussing element driven by a single piezoceramic disc.

Objective: Elevated intracranial pressure (ICP), a common complication in traumatic brain injuries (TBI), can lead to optic nerve sheath diameter (ONSD) enlargement and flow spectrum changes from the internal carotid artery (ICA) to middle cerebral artery (MCA). This study will investigate the use of Cervical-Cerebral Arterial Ultrasound (CCAU) for non-invasive ICP assessment and evaluating the related indices' clinical utility in TBI patients with decompressive craniotomy (DC).
Methods: ONSD and flow spectrum changes were measured within 24 h after DC in 106 patients via ultrasonic ONSD measurement and CCAU, simultaneously.

In this study, the total phenol, total flavonoid content, antioxidant capacity, phenolic component and fatty acid profiles of caper seed oils extracted by solvent extraction, sonication extraction and cold press methods were revealed. Total phenol amounts of caper seed oils extracted by cold press, sonication and solvent systems were recorded as 0.10, 0.

Rapid and sensitive protein detection methods are of benefit to clinical diagnosis, pathological mechanism research, and infection prevention. However, routine protein detection technologies, such as enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay and Western blot, suffer from low sensitivity, poor quantification and labourious operation. Herein, we developed a fully automated protein analysis system to conduct fast protein quantification at the single molecular level.
