Since its discovery, carbon quantum dots (CDs) have been widely applied in cell imaging, drug delivery, biosensing, and photocatalysis due to their excellent water solubility, chemical stability, fluorescence stability biocompatibility, low toxicity, and preparation cost. However, the low fluorescence yield and poor surface structure limit the application of CDs. Heteroatom doping is considered an ideal method to improve CDs' optical and electrical properties.

Liver fibrosis is potentially a reversible form of liver disease that evolved from the early stage of liver scarring as a consequence of chronic liver injuries. Recurrent injuries in the liver without any appropriate medication cause the injuries to get intense and deeper, which gradually leads to the progression of irreversible cirrhosis or carcinoma. Unfortunately, there are no approved treatment strategies for reversing hepatic fibrosis, making it one of the significant risk factors for developing advanced liver disorders and liver disease-associated mortality.

Background: Knowledge about healthcare users' evaluation of general practice is relatively limited.
Aim: We aimed to investigate evaluations in Danish men of general practice healthcare and of different aspects of general practitioners' (GPs) communication with patients.
Design & Setting: Secondary analyses of data from a web-based survey in 6756 Danish men aged 45-70 years (30% response rate) using municipality-level information from registries, self-reported sociodemographic data, personality characteristics, and five-point Likert scale evaluations of healthcare and communication in general practice.

Against the backdrop of an aging population, community pension initiatives are gaining traction, permeating societal landscapes. This study delves into the equilibrium strategy within the context of a defined benefit pension plan, employing a differential game framework with a community pension model. Hence, the model entails the company's controls over investment rates in funds, juxtaposed with employees' inclination towards a greater proportion of community pension allocation in said funds.

Based on analysis of documents obtained in public databases and under freedom of information requests, this study assessed the Alberta Energy Regulator's (AER) monitoring and management of bitumen tailings spills. The AER's claims of no environmental impacts at any tailings spills lack corroborative environmental data. Claims of perfect spill recovery in 75% of tailings spills are not supported by credible evidence.
