Efficient and accurate developer screening is critical for high-resolution lithography. In this study, a multiparameter (MP) method simultaneously based on the Hansen solubility parameters (HSP), two-component solubility parameters (TSP), and order parameter (OP) is proposed for the developer screening of molecular glass resists via molecular dynamics simulation. A customized solvent database, including 80 organic solvents, is created for the subsequent developer screening. Two diagram forms of HSP (-- diagram and - diagram) were investigated, and the - diagram is utilized due to its higher solubility prediction consistency with OP. Then, two solubility prediction diagrams, i.e., HSP&OP and TSP&OP diagrams, were formed using the MP method. The developer screening scheme using the MP method is illustrated for a decomposable resist, AD10BOC, and a cross-linkable resist, AD4C. Meanwhile, the feasibility of the developer screening scheme is verified by practical lithography experiments. In addition, relative solvation free energy (RSFE) calculations and dissolution experiments of six resists are implemented to further confirm the accuracy of OP in reflecting the relative solubility of the resist in various solvents. This study presents a viable approach for developer screening, which will facilitate the development of resist materials.

Introduction: Sexually transmitted infections (STIs) in pregnancy are associated with an increased risk of vertical HIV transmission and adverse pregnancy and birth outcomes. In South Africa, syndromic management is the standard of care for STI management. We assessed the potential impact of point-of-care (POC) screening for curable STIs (Chlamydia trachomatis [CT], Trichomonas vaginalis [TV] and Neisseria gonorrhoeae [NG]) during pregnancy on vertical HIV transmission and adverse pregnancy and birth outcomes.

Objectives: To evaluate the association of pre- and post-diagnosis fluid intake with non-muscle-invasive bladder cancer (NMIBC) recurrence and progression risk.
Patients And Methods: Data were used from the multicentre prospective cohort study UroLife. Participants reported pre-diagnosis fluid intake at 6 weeks (food frequency questionnaire [FFQ]) (n = 1322) and post-diagnosis fluid intake at 3 and 15 months (FFQ and 4-day 24-h fluid diaries) (n = 1275) after diagnosis.

Background: To investigate the relevance of hyperperfusion on computerised perfusion imaging (CTP) in the emergency setting in people with non-convulsive status epilepticus (NCSE) and previous stroke, to derive relevant aspects on the epileptogenic focus and the network recruited for NCSE propagation.
Methods: We enrolled consecutive adult patients with acute-onset NCSE and a previous stroke at a single institution undergoing CTP and EEG during symptoms. All patients underwent standard imaging including CT, CTP, CT angiograms and standard EEG within 30 min from hospital arrival.
