CuSe nanosheets were coated on the surface of Ni(OH) nanocages (NCs) by ion exchange driven by selenium incorporation. The resulting Ni(OH)@CuSe hollow heterostructures (Ni(OH)@CuSe HHSs) showed high electrical conductivity and electrocatalytic activities derived from the synergistic effects of Ni/Cu phases. These structures enhanced glucose adsorption abilities, confirmed by density function theory (DFT) calculations, and the robustness of the integrated nano-electrocatalyst. Remarkably, Ni(OH)@CuSe HHSs modified electrodes excited excellent glucose sensing behavior with a wide linear range (0.001-7.5 mM), a sensitivity up to 2420.4 Μa mM cm, a low limit of detection (LOD, 0.15 μM), and fast response (less 2 s). Furthermore, Ni(OH)@CuSe HHSs competently analyzed glucose in serum and beverages with good recoveries ranging from 94.4 to 103.6%. Integrating copper selenide and Ni-based materials as 3D hollow heterostructures expands the selection of electrocatalysts for sensitive glucose detection in food and biological samples.

Background: The medial longitudinal arch (MLA) is crucial for maintaining balance and center of gravity stability during human walking. High-heeled shoes (HHS) will affect the kinematics of the MLA which further affects the overall function of the foot. However specific motion effects of HHS on MLA during walking remain unclear.

Objective Voluntary assisted dying (VAD) began in Queensland in January 2023 but little is known about its practical operation. This research examined models of care for providing VAD in Queensland. Methods Semi-structured interviews were conducted with 24 participants involved with VAD delivery across Queensland's 16 Health and Hospital Services (HHSs).

Laccase, a prominent enzyme biomacromolecule, exhibits promising catalytic efficiency in degrading phenolic compounds like bisphenol A (BPA). The laccase immobilized on conventional materials frequently demonstrates restricted loading and suboptimal catalytic performance. Hence, there is a pressing need to optimized external surface utilization to enhance catalytic performance.

This study compared the radiologic and clinical outcomes of a new seven-axis robotic-assisted total hip arthroplasty (THA) and conventional THA. Hundred and four patients were randomly assigned to two groups-the robotic-assisted THA group (RAS group) and the conventional THA group (CON group). The preoperative and postoperative Harris Hip score (HHS), acetabular inclination, anteversion, femoral offset, and leg length discrepancy (LLD) were compared.
