We investigated the influences of charge writing on the surface work function (W) and sheet resistance (R) of the LaAlO3/SrTiO3 (LAO/STO) heterointerface in several gas environments: H2(2%)/N2(98%), air, N2, and O2. The decrease in W and R due to charge writing was much larger in air (ΔW = -0.45 eV and ΔR = -40 kΩ/S) than in O2 (ΔW = -0.21 eV and ΔR = -19 kΩ/S). The reduced R could be maintained more than 100 h in H2/N2. Such distinct behaviors were quantitatively discussed, based on the proposed charge-writing mechanisms. Such analyses showed how several processes, such as carrier transfer via surface adsorbates, surface redox, electronic state modification, and electrochemical surface reactions, contributed to charge writing in each gas.

Background: Dengue fever (DF) poses a growing global threat, necessitating a comprehensive one-health approach to address its complex interplay between human, animal, and environmental factors. In Oyo State, Nigeria, the true burden of DF remains unknown due to underdiagnosis and misdiagnosis as malaria, exacerbated by poor health-seeking behavior, weak surveillance systems, and inadequate health infrastructure. Adopting a one-health approach is crucial to understanding the dynamics of DF transmission.

Background: In the context of injectable biologic products approved or in development for chronic spontaneous urticaria (CSU), it is important to capture which treatment attributes matter most to patient and what trade-offs patients are willing to make.

Objectives: The CHOICE-CSU study aimed to quantify patient preferences toward injectable treatment attributes among patients with CSU, inadequately controlled by H1-antihistamines.

Methods: This was a two-phase cross-sectional patient preference study in adult patients with a diagnosis of CSU, inadequately controlled by H1-antihistamines.

Fostamatinib had superior efficacy to a placebo and acceptable safety profiles for at least 1 year in a phase 3 study of Japanese patients with primary immune thrombocytopenia. Here, we report the 3-year safety and efficacy of fostamatinib in that study. Data from 33 patients who received at least one dose of fostamatinib were analyzed.

New developments in the field of chemical graph theory have made it easier to comprehend how chemical structures relate to the graphs that underlie them on a more profound level using the ideas of classical graph theory. Chemical graphs can be effectively probed with the help of quantitative structure-property relationship (QSPR) analysis. In order to statistically correlate physical attributes.

Antimicrobial Activity of UV-Activated and Cysteamine-Grafted Polymer Foils Against Bacteria and Algae.

Surface modification of various polymer foils was achieved by UV activation and chemical grafting with cysteamine to improve surface properties and antimicrobial efficacy. UVC activation at 254 nm led to changes in surface wettability and charge density, which allowed the introduction of amino and thiol functional groups by cysteamine grafting. X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy (XPS) confirmed increased nitrogen and sulfur content on the modified surfaces.
