Objectives: Hearing impairment can have major impacts on behavior, educational attainment, social status, and quality of life. In congenital hypothyroidism, the incidence of hearing impairment reaches 35-50%, while in acquired hypothyroidism there is a reported incidence of 25%. Despite this, knowledge of the pathogenesis, incidence and severity of hearing impairment remains greatly lacking.

Nowadays, performance studies on the amperometric total residual oxidant (TRO) sensor are only in the bench test stage and have not been conducted under specific maritime conditions with Ballast Water Management System (BWMS). In this study, the application of the amperometric TRO sensor in land-based biological efficacy (BE) testing, operation and maintenance (O&M) testing, as well as shipboard (SB) testing, was explored by comparing with the existing di-phenylene-diamine (DPD) TRO sensor. The results showed that the average TRO measurement deviation between the amperometric sensor and the DPD sensor was within ±10% in valid BE test cycles and the O&M testing exceeding 47 operating hours.

Breast milk (BM) is the only source of iodine and bioactive compounds that influence growth and development in infants. The content of BM may be influenced by maternal body mass index (BMI). The aim of this study was to investigate the effect of maternal weight on BM and cord blood iodine concentrations, growth-related hormones, infant anthropometric measurements.

The persistent organic radical 2,2,6,6-tetramethylpiperidinyloxyl (TEMPO) protects its NO radical center by four methyl groups. Two of them are arranged tightly (t) on one side of the six-membered puckered heterocycle, and the other two more openly (o) on the other side. It is shown by OH stretching infrared spectroscopy in heated supersonic jet expansions that the hydrogen bond and aromatic ring of a first solvating benzyl alcohol have almost no preference for either side.

Photon-counting mammography is an emerging modality that allows for spectral imaging and provides a differentiation of material compositions. The development of photon-counting mammography-specific contrast agents has yet to be explored. In this study, the contrast, sensitivity, and organ dose between silver sulfide nanoparticles (AgS-NPs) and a clinically approved iodinated agent (iopamidol) were investigated using a contrast-embedded gradient ramp phantom and a prototype scanner.
