Mixed-organic-cation FAxMA1-xPbI3 films were prepared using a one-step solution deposition method in ambient air. The formamidinium (FA+) fraction 'x' was varied from 0.1 to 1 by changing the amounts of formamidinium iodide (FAI) and methylammonium iodide (MAI) in the precursor solution. Perovskite solar cells (PSCs) with a structure of FTO glass/compact TiO2/mesoporous TiO2/FAxMA1-xPbI3/carbon electrode were designed and fabricated. The effects of the FA+ fraction 'x' on the structure, morphology and optical properties of the FAxMA1-xPbI3 films as well as the photovoltaic performance of PSCs were studied. The results showed that the photovoltaic inactive δ-phase FAPbI3 can be formed in the presence of high contents of FA+ (x = 0.8 and 1.0). The band gap of FAxMA1-xPbI3 decreased from 1.58 eV to 1.49 eV when the FA+ fraction x increased from 0.1 to 1. The PSCs based on FA0.4MA0.6PbI3 exhibited an optimal photovoltaic performance, yielding Voc of 0.8 V, Jsc of 22.84 mA cm-2, FF of 0.48 and PCE of 8.77%.

Magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) is frequently used to monitor disease progression in multiple sclerosis (MS). This study aims to systematically evaluate the correlation between MRI measures and histopathological changes, including demyelination, axonal loss, and gliosis, in the central nervous system of MS patients. We systematically reviewed post-mortem histological studies evaluating myelin density, axonal loss, and gliosis using quantitative imaging in MS.

Purpose: This study aims to assess whether water exchange rate (k), a surrogate for blood-brain barrier (BBB) permeability, is associated with functional outcomes in patients with acute ischemic stroke (AIS).

Methods: We studied 22 AIS patients enrolled from 1/2022 to 4/2024 who underwent multi-modal non-contrast imaging on a 3.0-Tesla scanner, including DP-pCASL, DTI, NODDI and MAP imaging.

Although multiple magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) indices are known to be sensitive to the noninvasive assessment of myelin integrity, their relative sensitivities have not been directly compared. This study aimed to identify the most sensitive MRI index for characterizing myelin composition in the spinal cord's gray matter (GM) and white matter (WM). MRI was performed on a deer's ex vivo cervical spinal cord.

The starting point for the preparation of polymeric membranes by phase inversion is having a thermodynamically stable solution. Ternary diagrams for the polymer, solvent, and non-solvent can predict this stability by identifying the phase separation and describing the thermodynamic behavior of the membrane formation process. Given the lack of data for the ternary system water (HO)/hydrochloric acid (HCℓ)/polyamide 66 (PA66), this work employed the Flory-Huggins theory for the construction of the ternary diagrams (HO/HCℓ/PA66 and HO/formic acid (FA)/PA66) by comparing the experimental data with theoretical predictions.

Background: Retinol isotope dilution (RID) equations are used to predict vitamin A total body stores (TBS). Including population-based ("super-subject") modeling with RID provides group-specific values for the equation coefficients.

Objectives: Objective was to test an approach that would accommodate a limited super-subject sample size without compromising accuracy in RID predictions of TBS.
