An AC (alternating current) LED exhibited the advantages of a low drive current, low static electricity, lack of a need for a rectifier, and high extraction efficiency. The input operating voltage of an AC LED is around 80V, and its operating frequency is 120 Hz or less. When the voltage is converted, a time gap of 1/120 s (10 ms), called dead time, is generated. This time gap is closely related to the scintillation phenomenon. Therefore, AC LEDs that have a phosphor composition, whose half-life composition can compensate for dead time that is generated during the voltage conversion, are sought to solve the problem of scintillation. The object of this work is to provide a phosphor SrSi(2)O(2)N(2):Eu(2+),Mn(2+) for AC LEDs, in which the dead time that is generated during the voltage conversion is compensated for by the half-life of the phosphor.

Background: Opioids are still being prescribed to manage acute postsurgical pain. Unnecessary opioid prescriptions can lead to addiction and death, as unused tablets are easily diverted.

Methods: To determine whether combination nonopioid analgesics are at least as good as opioid analgesics, a multisite, double-blind, randomized, stratified, noninferiority comparative effectiveness trial was conducted, which examined patient-centered outcomes after impacted mandibular third-molar extraction surgery.

Myocardial ischemia/reperfusion (IR) injury is a common adverse event in the clinical treatment of myocardial ischemic disease. Autosis is a form of cell death that occurs when autophagy is excessive in cells, and it has been associated with cardiac IR damage. This study aimed to investigate the regulatory mechanism of circRNA CDR1AS on autosis in cardiomyocytes under IR.

Background: Left ventricular (LV) myocardial contraction patterns can be assessed using LV mechanical dispersion (LVMD), a parameter closely associated with electrical activation patterns. Despite its potential clinical significance, limited research has been conducted on LVMD following myocardial infarction (MI). This study aims to evaluate the predictive value of cardiac magnetic resonance (CMR)-derived LVMD for adverse clinical outcomes and to explore its correlation with myocardial scar heterogeneity.

Background: Cancer immunotherapy using immune checkpoint blockade (ICB) has revolutionized cancer treatment. However, patients with multiple myeloma (MM) rarely respond to ICB. Accumulating evidence indicates that the complicated tumor microenvironment (TME) significantly impacts the efficacy of ICB therapy.

Introduction: The hypothermic oxygenated perfusion (HOPE) system has been developed to improve the quality of previously considered suboptimal liver grafts, reduce complications, and increase the number of available donors. The aim of this study is to evaluate the results since its implementation in the liver transplant (LT) program at our center.

Materials And Methods: We conducted a retrospective descriptive analysis of all LTs with HOPE from August 2022 to November 2023 with a minimum follow-up of 3 months.
