A micro-nano sharkskin like film (Cu-MNS-FA) was synthesized on copper surface through chemical etching followed by formate passivation, and its anticorrosive, antibacterial and thermal conductivity properties were investigated. Results show that after 7 d of exposure to nature, Pseudomonas aeruginosa and Desulfovibrio vulgaris seawater, the charge transfer resistance of Cu-MNS-FA is more than three times higher than that of unmodified copper. In particular, in D.

Objectives: Patient experience surveys are essential to measuring patient-centered care, a key component of health care quality. Low response rates in underserved groups may limit their representation in overall measure performance and hamper efforts to assess health equity. Telephone follow-up improves response rates in many health care settings, yet little recent work has examined this for surveys of Medicare enrollees, including those with Medicare Advantage.

Background: It remains unclear if there is agreement between physicians and patients on the definition of treatment success following orthopedic treatment. Clinical progress notes are generated during each health care encounter and include information on current disease symptoms, rehabilitation progress, and treatment outcomes.
Objective: This study aims to assess if physicians and patients agree on whether patient outcomes captured in clinical progress notes reflect a successful treatment outcome following orthopedic care.

Polymer-based dielectric films are increasingly demanded for devices under high electric fields used in new energy vehicles, photovoltaic grid connections, oil and gas exploration, and aerospace. However, leakage current is one of the significant factors limiting the improvement of the insulation performance. This paper tested the leakage current and condensed state structure characteristics of biaxially oriented polypropylene (BOPP) films and obtained the nonlinear characteristics of leakage current of BOPP films in the range of 40-440 V/μm and 40-110 °C.

Implant failure remains a significant challenge in oral implantology, necessitating a deeper understanding of its risk factors to improve treatment outcomes. This study aimed to enhance the clinical outcomes of oral implant restoration by investigating the factors contributing to implant failure in patients with partial dentition defects within two years of treatment. Additionally, the study sought to develop an early risk prediction model for implant failure.
