Background And Objectives: The rapid development of new knowledge resources is essential for continuous training and continuing education. Since the training period often coincides with the starting of a family, time resources are often scarce. For this reason, a new, voluntary, web-based e‑learning training series was designed for urological assistants (urology onLINE). We investigated to what extent the offer of a web-based training series is used by urological training assistants and how it is evaluated by participants and speakers.
Materials And Methods: The training series includes a one-month training on a topic from the urological continuing education, which is presented online and whose contents are checked by means of interspersed CME questions. During the investigation period November 2016 to October 2017, participants in the Urology onLINE training series were evaluated. In addition, an evaluation of individual events and an evaluation of the work load of the speakers took place.
Results: On average, 60 participants participated in the individual events. These were rated very well with an average grade of 1.43 ± 0.21. Two thirds of the participants experienced an active and inquisitive experience during the event. The workload for the speakers was less than that of a comparable classroom event.
Conclusions: Overall, the new Urology onLINE training series aims to contribute to the increase in spatial and temporal flexibility, and complements existing training formats, especially in times of scarce time resources.

Speechreading-gathering speech information from talkers' faces-supports speech perception when speech acoustics are degraded. Benefitting from speechreading, however, requires listeners to visually fixate talkers during face-to-face interactions. The purpose of this study is to test the hypothesis that preschool-aged children allocate their eye gaze to a talker when speech acoustics are degraded.

Background: Gastrointestinal bleeding (GIB) is a common condition in the emergency department (ED) with high incidence and mortality.
Objectives: Very early risk stratification of GIB patients can sometimes be a challenge. The decision to intubate these patients is multifactorial and requires careful consideration.

To address the challenges of unbalanced class labels with varying maturity levels of tomato fruits and low recognition accuracy for both fruits and stems in intelligent harvesting, we propose the YOLOX-SE-GIoU model for identifying tomato fruit maturity and stems. The SE focus module was incorporated into YOLOX to improve the identification accuracy, addressing the imbalance in the number of tomato fruits and stems. Additionally, we optimized the loss function to GIoU loss to minimize discrepancies across different scales of fruits and stems.

Direct conversion of dinitrogen (N) into N-containing compounds beyond ammonia under ambient conditions remains a longstanding challenge. Herein, we present a Lewis acid-promoted strategy for diverse nitrogen-element bonds formation from N using chromium dinitrogen complex [Cp*(IPrMe)Cr(N)]K (1). With the help of Lewis acids AlMe and BF, we successfully trap a series of fleeting diazenido intermediates and synthesize value-added compounds containing N-B, N-Ge, and N-P bonds with 3 d metals, offering a method for isolating unstable intermediates.

-Methyl-d-aspartate (NMDA) receptors, a subtype of ionotropic glutamate receptors in the central nervous system (CNS), have garnered attention for their role in brain disorders. Specifically, GluN2A-containing NMDA receptors have emerged as a potential therapeutic target for the treatment of depressive disorders and epilepsy. However, the development of GluN2A-containing NMDA receptor-selective antagonists, represented by -(4-(2-benzoylhydrazine-1-carbonyl)benzyl)-3-chloro-4-fluorobenzenesulfonamide (TCN-201) and its derivatives, faces a significant challenge due to their limited ability to penetrate the blood-brain barrier (BBB), hampering their characterization and further advancement.
