With emerging contextual factors and epidemiological transition of HIV/AIDS, the role and contributions of health behavior theories (HBT) are a compelling question after three decades of efforts to eradicate HIV. This study aims at exploring the global and historical evolution of literature and suggesting the most frequent research topics and research gaps in relation to the use of HBT in HIV/AIDS. A cross-sectional analysis of global HIV/AIDS bibliography was conducted through Web of Science (WoS) up to December 31, 2017. We utilized exploratory factor analysis to test the likelihood of research domains and landscape from the abstracts. A total of 29,997 papers in 153 HIV-related research areas were retrieved from the WoS database. This study suggests that HIV/AIDS research based on HBTs is increasing, and mainly focuses on elucidating traditional HIV driven factors and consonant with western perspectives most HBTs tend to be individually focused. Despite its important advancement, more research based on HBTs is essential to provide cultural background, social value, and contextualized factors where the HIV pandemic is dynamic; where new cases are transmitted from high-risk subgroups to the general population; and where epidemiological, social, and behavioral transitions change new infection routes, new perspectives for health service delivery especially non-medical services, and resource allocation.

Investigation of Device- and Circuit-Level Reliability of Inverse-Mode Silicon-Germanium Heterojunction Bipolar Transistors.
Sensors (Basel)

Article Synopsis
- The study explores how the reliability of silicon-germanium (SiGe) heterojunction bipolar transistors (HBTs) is affected by dc stress, particularly in terms of basic analog amplifier performance.
- Three configurations (active bias, diode connection, and off state) were tested under stress for up to 3000 seconds to measure how stress impacts key device parameters like current gain, transconductance, and resistance.
- Simulation of single-stage analog amplifiers revealed that while transimpedance gain decreases and bandwidth changes with stress, the voltage amplifier showed minimal variation in performance.
Home visit-based baby tailored support program for infants.

Purpose: According to the annual developmental screening tests in South Korea, an increasing number of infants require further evaluation for the early assessment and treatment of developmental disabilities. We developed the Home Visit-Based Baby Tailored Support Program (H-BTS) and explored its potential effectiveness on infants' cognitive, language, and motor development, as well as their mothers' knowledge of infant development, parenting anxiety, and parenting efficacy.
Methods: We employed a non-equivalent control group pretest-posttest design with 49 infants and mothers in Seoul, Korea.
Review on Synthesis of 2-(2-Hydroxyaryl) Benzothiazoles (HBT) for Excited-State Intra-molecular Proton Transfer (ESIPT)-Based Detection of Ions and Biomolecules.

In this review, we present a systematic and comprehensive summary of the recent developments in the synthetic strategies of 2-(2-hydroxyarylsubstituted)-benzothiazole (HBT) framework along with incorporation of various substituents on phenolic and benzothiazole rings which affect the emission process. The literature, spanning the years 2015-2024, on excited-state intramolecular proton transfer (ESIPT)-based studies of HBT derivatives comprising the effects of solvent polarity, substituents, and extended conjugation on fluorophores has been searched. ESIPT, intramolecular charge transfer, and aggregation-induced emissions enable these fluorescent probes to specifically interact with analytes, thereby altering their luminescence characteristics to achieve analyte detection.

The single-event effects (SEEs) of frequency divider circuits and the radiation tolerance of the hardened circuit are studied in this paper. Based on the experimental results of SEEs in InP HBTs, a transient current model for sensitive transistors is established, taking into account the influence of factors such as laser energy, base-collector junction voltage, and radiation position. Moreover, the SEEs of the (2:1) static frequency divider circuit with the InP DHBT process are simulated under different laser energies by adding the transient current model at sensitive nodes.

We demonstrate a highly biomimetic spiking neuron capable of fast and energy-efficient neuronal oscillation dynamics. Our simple neuron circuit is constructed using silicon-germanium heterojunction based bipolar transistors (HBTs) with nanowire structure. The HBT has a hysteresis window with steep switching characteristics and high current margin in the low voltage range, which enables a high spiking frequency (~ 245 kHz) with low energy consumption (≤ 1.
