Thin carbonized polydopamine (C-PDA) coatings are found to have similar structures and electrical conductivities to those of multilayered graphene doped with heteroatoms. Greatly enhanced electrochemical properties are achieved with C-PDA-coated SnO(2) nanoparticles where the coating functions as a mechanical buffer layer and conducting bridge.

Evaluating a Hearing Loop Implementation for Live Orchestral Music.

McMaster Institute for Music and the Mind, McMaster University, Hamilton, Ontario, Canada.
Objectives: Live music creates a sense of connectedness in older adults, which can help alleviate the social isolation frequently associated with hearing loss and aging. However, most hearing-aid (HA) users are dissatisfied with the sound quality of live music and rate sound quality as important to them. Assistive listening systems are frequently independent of a user's HAs and fall short in tailoring to each individual's hearing loss.

Self-organization realizes various nanostructures to control material properties such as superconducting vortex pinning and thermal conductivity. However, the self-organization of nucleation and growth is constrained by the growth geometric symmetry. To realize highly controlled three-dimensional nanostructures by self-organization, nanostructure formation that breaks the growth geometric symmetry thermodynamically and kinetically, such as tilted or in-plane aligned nanostructures, is a challenging issue.

Electrical storm caused by sertraline overdose: case report.
AME Case Rep
November 2024
Department of Cardiology, Wellstar Medical College of Georgia Health, Augusta, GA, USA.
Background: In cases of electrical storm, identifying the etiology is essential, as patients with reversible causes do not benefit from implantable cardioverter defibrillator (ICD). Given the diversity of pharmacologic and nonpharmacologic management tools available for hemodynamically unstable patients in electrical storm, all must be considered and tailored to each individual patient.
Case Description: This report describes a 36-year-old female without prior cardiac history who presented in ventricular fibrillation (VF) electrical storm.
