The design of cathode/electrolyte interfaces in high-energy density Li-ion batteries is critical to protect the surface against undesirable oxygen release from the cathodes when batteries are charged to high voltage. However, the involvement of the engineered interface in the cationic and anionic redox reactions associated with (de-)lithiation is often ignored, mostly due to the difficulty to separate these processes from chemical/catalytic reactions at the cathode/electrolyte interface. Here, a new electron energy band diagrams concept is developed that includes the examination of the electrochemical- and ionization- potentials evolution upon batteries cycling.

Conflict-affected regions face severe reproductive health challenges that disproportionately impact adolescent girls and young women (AGYW) and children, who are especially vulnerable due to the breakdown of healthcare systems and limited access to essential services. AGYW are at heightened risk due to restricted access to family planning, prenatal care, and emergency obstetric services, while children face malnutrition, disease outbreaks, and developmental delays. These challenges have profound long-term consequences for both their physical and psychological well-being.

Introduction: Traffic accidents are a major public health concern worldwide, resulting in significant injuries, fatalities, and economic costs. In urban zones, traffic accident dynamics can vary significantly due to population density, infrastructure, and emergency response capabilities. The present study was conducted to determine the time intervals of prehospital emergencies in traffic accidents by separating the 15 zones of Isfahan city, Iran.

Background: The aim of this study is to develop a method we call "cost mining" to unravel cost variation and identify cost drivers by modelling integrated patient pathways from primary care to the palliative care setting. This approach fills an urgent need to quantify financial strains on healthcare systems, particularly for colorectal cancer, which is the most expensive cancer in Australia, and the second most expensive cancer globally.
Methods: We developed and published a customized algorithm that dynamically estimates and visualizes the mean, minimum, and total costs of care at the patient level, by aggregating activity-based healthcare system costs (e.

The COVID-19 pandemic has significantly impacted the quality of life (QoL) of individuals in China, affecting both their physical and mental well-being. This study aims to comprehensively analyze the factors influencing QoL in China during the pandemic. In 2022, we collected data using a self-developed questionnaire (dataset 2) and obtained dataset 1 from the 2021 China General Social Survey (CGSS).
