A total of 74 patients with postinfarct cardiosclerosis (PC) and stable angina (SA) were examined by Holter monitoring, bicycle ergometry, echocardiography and 201Tl chloride myocardial scintigraphy and loading tests (transesophageal cardiac pacing and isometric hand exercise test). The detection rate for silent myocardial ischemia (SI) was found to be 57.1% with Holter monitoring, 52.3% by bicycle ergometry, 62.5% with echocardiography, 100% with myocardial scintigraphy with loading test and 88.8% with that without the loading test. The detection rate for PC was 33.9, 32.0, 64.7, 81.8, and 56.7%, respectively. Higher SI detection rates in postinfarct patients were more frequently observed when echocardiography and myocardial scintigraphy in combination with loading tests in patients with PC without angina. The efficiency of SI detection in patients with various coronary heart disease increases when loading tests are employed. The loading tests in echocardiography and myocardial scintigraphy ensure the most complete detection of SI in postinfarct patients without angina.

With increasing mining depth, the coal pillars of a coal mine will be in a stressful environment characterized by high gas pressures and unidirectional loading. To investigate the damage evolution characteristics and energy evolution mechanism of coal pillars loaded in a gas pressure environment, a uniaxial compression test was performed on a coal body under different gas pressures using a load testing apparatus for gas-containing coal rocks. The obtained results showed that the mechanical properties of the coal body varied with the gas pressure.

The continued evolution of SARS-CoV-2 variants capable of subverting vaccine and infection-induced immunity suggests the advantage of a broadly protective vaccine against betacoronaviruses (β-CoVs). Recent studies have isolated monoclonal antibodies (mAbs) from SARS-CoV-2 recovered-vaccinated donors capable of neutralizing many variants of SARS-CoV-2 and other β-CoVs. Many of these mAbs target the conserved S2 stem region of the SARS-CoV-2 spike protein, rather than the receptor binding domain contained within S1 primarily targeted by current SARS-CoV-2 vaccines.

This study synthesizes a novel three-dimensional (3D) porous coordination polymer (CP), {[Co(L)₀.₅(H₂O)]·NMP·H₂O} (1), via a solvothermal method in a mixed solvent of water and NMP (1-methyl-2-pyrrolidinone), reacting Co(II) ions with H₄L (1,4-bis(5,6-carboxybenzimidazolylmethyl)benzene). The CP exhibits unique fluorescence properties, emitting at 420 nm under UV light excitation at 350 nm, and serves as a carrier for Mesalazine (MSZ) in therapeutic applications.

Bone mechanical function is determined by multiple factors, some of which are still being elucidated. Here, we present a multivariate analysis of the role of bone tissue composition in the proximal femur stiffness of cadaver bones (n = 12, age 44-93). Stiffness was assessed by testing under loading conditions simulating a sideways fall onto the hip.

The Keiser 10-rep leg press test protocol employs short inter-repetition rest intervals (2-38 s), raising concerns as to whether athletes perform optimally. The aim of this study was to compare the results of the standard Keiser protocol with an identical protocol modified to include a significantly longer inter-repetition rest intervals and to evaluate whether these effects differed between men and women. A total of 30 athletes (age 17.
