In this paper, the instability mechanism of resistive random access memory (RRAM) was investigated, and a technique was developed to stabilize the distribution of high resistance states (HRS) and better concentrate the set voltage. Due to the accumulation of oxygen, an interface-type switching characteristic was observed on the I-V curves beneath the filament-type switching behavior. In this work, the interface-type switching characteristic is used to fit the natural distribution of HRS as an analysis of the instability mechanism. According to the results, the HRS distribution is attributed to the accumulation of excess oxygen ions left from the lower oxygen content and oxygen vacancy recombination during the reset process. The proposed solution with simple plasma treatment, can create an excess oxygen reservoir by changing the surface topography of the electrode to store the surplus oxygen ions from the reset process, eliminating the oxygen accumulation effect and further improving the device stability.

To examine the effects of self-paced combined high-intensity interval training and resistance training (HIIT-RT) on oxidative stress, inflammation lipid profile and body composition in people with multiple sclerosis (PwMS). Twenty-three PwMS were randomly assigned to either a control group (CG, n = 12) or a training group (TG, n = 11). The TG performed a 12-week self-paced HIIT-RT (3 times/week).

Capillary refill time paradoxically decreases in a blood loss shock model.

Intensive Care Med Exp

January 2025

Department of Emergency Medicine in Linköping, and Department of Biomedical and Clinical Sciences, Linköping University, 582 25, Linköping, Sweden.

Background: This study aimed to investigate whether changes in capillary refill (CR) time precede macrovascular signs of deterioration in a human model of blood loss shock. The study was conducted at the Department of Emergency Medicine in Linköping, Sweden, and involved 42 healthy volunteers aged 18-45. Participants were randomized into two provocations of applied lower body negative pressure (LBNP): a stepwise escalation protocol and a direct application protocol, to simulate gradual and acute blood loss.

Introduction: Ceftazidime-avibactam (CAZ-AVI) has emerged as a promising treatment option for Gram-negative infections, particularly those caused by CAZ-Non-Susceptible (NS) pathogens. This systematic review and meta-analysis aim to assess the efficacy and safety of CAZ-AVI in these challenging infections.

Methods: We systematically queried EMBASE, Cochrane CENTRAL, and PubMed/Medline for studies published until September 15, 2024.

Background: Black individuals frequently present with resistant hypertension and disproportionately increased cardiovascular risk. We investigated the blood pressure (BP)-lowering effect of the dual endothelin receptor antagonist aprocitentan in Black individuals enrolled in the PRECISION study (Parallel-Group, Phase 3 Study with Aprocitentan in Subjects with Resistant Hypertension).

Methods: Patients with confirmed resistant hypertension were randomized to aprocitentan 12.
