Background/objectives: Studies on the application and exploration of human-computer interaction (HCI) technologies within the healthcare sector have rapidly expanded, showcasing the immense potential of HCI to enhance medical services, elevate patient experiences, and advance health management. Despite this proliferating interest, there is a notable shortage of comprehensive bibliometric analyses dedicated to the application of HCI in healthcare, which limits a thorough comprehension of the growth trends and future trajectories in this area.
Methods: To bridge this gap, we employed bibliometric methods using the CiteSpace tool to systematically review and analyze the current state and trends of HCI research in healthcare.

SET and MYND Domain-Containing 2 (Smyd-2), a specific protein lysine methyltransferase (PKMT), influences both histones and non-histones. Its role in cerebral ischemia/reperfusion (CIR), particularly in ferroptosis-a regulated form of cell death driven by lipid peroxidation-remains poorly understood. This study identifies the expression of Smyd-2 in the brain and investigates its relationship with neuronal programmed cell death (PCD).

Background: Elevated low-density lipoprotein (LDL) cholesterol is a major risk factor for cardiovascular disease. Statins are the cornerstone of preventing and treating cardiovascular disease and can reduce LDL cholesterol by more than 60%. Although statins have high tolerability and safety, as the number of users increases, their adverse reactions in the liver, kidneys, skeletal muscles, and their potential to induce diabetes have also received widespread attention.

We report a novel shear-detachment (SD) approach to simulate the dynamics of flux recovery in the membrane cleaning process. In this model, the rate of foulant detachment away from the membrane is governed by both the shear intensity and the probability of successful foulant detachment, with the latter modeled by Boltzmann distribution. Our SD predictions exhibit good agreement with experimental results, accurately capturing the dynamics of flux recovery.

Carboxyl or carbonyl-containing metabolites (CoCCMs) are widely distributed in biological samples. Global profiling of CoCCMs is essential for ascertaining specific functions of metabolites and their potential physiological roles in biogenic activities. However, simultaneous determination of these compounds is hampered by poor ionization efficiency, vast polarity differences, wide discrepancy of concentration ranges.

Background: Cardiovascular disease (CVD) is the leading cause of noncancer-related mortality among differentiated thyroid cancer (DTC) survivors, which accounts for a large portion of subsequent primary malignancies in childhood cancer survivors. This study aims to assess the risk of cardiovascular mortality among DTC as a second primary malignancy (DTC-2) patients compared with DTC as a first primary malignancy (DTC-1) and the general population.
Methods: Using the Surveillance, Epidemiology, and End Results database, we conducted a population-based cohort study including 159 395 DTC-1 and 20 010 DTC-2 patients diagnosed older than 30 between 1975 and 2020 and the corresponding US population (71 214 642 person-years; 41 420 893 cardiovascular deaths).

Design thinking is the foundation of professional design education, and the shift from zero to professional design skill involves the completion of the transition from single-mindedness to independent and innovative thinking. In this exploratory study on design teaching, we build a novel teaching model by drawing on the connection between students' self-transcendent knowledge and formal knowledge in design thinking. Based on the Design for Happiness framework (DfH), this study uses Positive Emotional Granularity cards (PEG) to stimulate students to identify and categorize various positive emotions.

Intramolecular through-space charge-transfer (TSCT) excited states have emerged as promising candidates for thermally activated delayed fluorescence (TADF) emitters. This study addresses the challenges in tuning excited state dynamics through conformational engineering, which significantly impacts exciton utilization. An effective strategy is presented to enhance the performance of TSCT-TADF molecules by restricting the lateral rocking of the spiro unit via immobilizing groups, which indirectly adjusts the conformations of the donor and acceptor subunits.

Capping layers (CPLs) are commonly employed in top-emitting organic light-emitting diodes (TEOLEDs) due to their ability to optimize color purity, enhance external light out-coupling efficiency, and improve device stability. However, the mismatch in refractive index between CPLs and thin film encapsulation (TFE) often induces light trapping. This study introduces a novel approach by combining a low refractive index material, lithium fluoride (LiF), with the traditional TFE material, silicon nitride (SiN), to form a combined CPL (LiF/SiN), resulting in improved light outcoupling and light reflection properties.

In many clinical and research settings, the scarcity of high-quality medical imaging datasets has hampered the potential of artificial intelligence (AI) clinical applications. This issue is particularly pronounced in less common conditions, underrepresented populations and emerging imaging modalities, where the availability of diverse and comprehensive datasets is often inadequate. To address this challenge, we introduce a unified medical image-text generative model called MINIM that is capable of synthesizing medical images of various organs across various imaging modalities based on textual instructions.
