Background: Pursuing excellence in healthcare delivery systems is an ongoing process. In this process, continuing medical education (CME) is essential for medical professionals to maintain high standards of patient care. In China, where the healthcare sector is undergoing considerable reforms and faces challenges owing to socioeconomic development and demographic shifts, an effective CME system is vital for general practitioners (GPs).

In natural environments, most rocks possess internal fissures and are often exposed to diverse external loads arising from engineering activities and ground stress, among other factors. This study aims to explore the influence of different loading rates on the mechanical properties and acoustic emission (AE) characteristics of fissured rocks and to develop an intrinsic damage model. To achieve this, prefabricated fissured rock specimens that mimic natural rocks were prepared.

Climate change and environmental degradation are critical global challenges, and the G-20 nations play a pivotal role in addressing these issues due to their substantial contributions to global GDP and carbon emissions. Transitioning toward renewable energy sources is imperative for mitigating CO2 emissions and achieving sustainable development. This study investigates the impact of technological innovation, gross domestic product (GDP), renewable energy consumption, economic freedom, and financial advancement on renewable energy use and environmental pollution levels in G-20 countries from 1995 to 2022.

The rapid growth of electric vehicles (EVs) in China challenges raw material demand. This study evaluates the impact of recycling and reusing EV batteries on reducing material demand and carbon emissions. Integrating a national-level vehicle stock turnover model with life-cycle carbon emission assessment, we found that replacing nickel-cobalt-manganese batteries with lithium iron phosphate batteries with battery recycling can reduce lithium, cobalt, and nickel demand between 2021 and 2060 by up to 7.

The pathogenesis of chronic thromboembolic pulmonary hypertension may be multifactorial and requires further studies. We explored alterations in pulmonary artery endothelial cells under the hypoxic and elevated interleukin-17 conditions that are commonly present in patients with chronic thromboembolic pulmonary hypertension. We measured the serum interleukin-17 levels in 10 chronic thromboembolic pulmonary hypertension patients and 10 healthy control persons.
