A core–double shell heterostructure Co₉S₈@Co₉S₈@MoS₂-0.5 with multiple interfaces and a tunable electronic structure was constructed as an efficient tri-functional electrocatalyst.

Abstract Background Although studies on the effectiveness of use ICU diaries psychiatric disorders and quality life have been published, results still seem to be controversial. The study aimed determine effects using an diary disorders, sleep quality, (QoL) in adult survivors China. Methods One hundred twenty-six patients who underwent a scheduled cardiac surgery were expected stay ≥ 24 h randomized two groups (63 each group). intervention group received during period post-ICU follow-up,...

Mild cognitive impairment (MCI) is often a precursor of dementia, and patients with MCI develop dementia at higher rate than healthy older adults. Early detection decline the stage supports better planning care interventions. At present, use virtual reality (VR) in screening for adults promising, but there little evidence regarding supermarkets to screen MCI.The objectives this study are validate VR game-based test, namely, Virtual Supermarket Program (VSP), differentiating controls identify...

To reduce the draught force of a traditional planar potato digging shovel (DZ), biomimetic (YS), inspired by mole rat’s digits, is designed, using macroscopic surface modification method. The finite element simulations, soil bin experiments, and field experiments for DZ YS are conducted to explore factors affecting verify feasibility effectiveness shovel. Results show that soil–shovel interaction models predict well, but simulations rupture distance ratio need be further improved. studied...

The Munich Chronotype Questionnaire (MCTQ) was developed to determine an individual's chronotype, and it provides information about sleep wake times separately for work free days. However, the MCTQ has not been effectively verified using a large sample based on multiple questionnaires actigraphy measures. Three sequential studies were conducted. Study 1 used (n = 1066) investigate chronotype of Chinese college freshmen assess validity compared with reduced Morningness-Eveningness (rMEQ),...

Accurate RNA secondary structure information is the cornerstone of gene function research and tertiary prediction. However, most traditional prediction algorithms are based on dynamic programming (DP) algorithm, according to minimum free energy theory, with both hard soft constraints. The accuracy particularly dependent constraints (from experimental data like chemical enzyme detection). With elongation sequence, time complexity DP-based will increase geometrically, as a result, they not...

Background: Exercise interventions for mild cognitive impairment (MCI) have been extensively studied. However, there is no bibliometric study on exercise MCI. This aimed to identify the collaborative networks, research hotspots, evolution trends, and future directions. Methods: Relevant documents were retrieved from Web of Science Core Collection database. VOSviewer was used analyze co-authorship author, countries institutions, keywords co-occurrence. CiteSpace detect burst keywords’ trends....

To achieve high-quality no-till seeding, a wing-shaped stubble-breaking device with excellent performance was designed for maize stubble. A model of stubble developed based on the Discrete Element Method (DEM) and verified through soil bin tests. The DEM used to optimize design parameters investigate interaction between blades during process. Field experiments were conducted evaluate device. results indicated that accurate; when optimal 37° slide cutting angle, 31° pitching 50 mm wing width,...

Basic helix-loop-helix (bHLH) transcription factors (TFs) are known to play significant roles in plant growth and development, secondary metabolite synthesis, stress responses. However, the functions of soybean [Glycine max (L.) Merr.] bHLH TFs have been less widely explored. The main purpose this study was explore function a TF subfamily gene, GmbHLH3, by overexpression wild type Arabidopsis thaliana Heynh. GmbHLH3 is homolog bHLH3 (AtbHLH3) that participates regulation jasmonic acid (JA)...

Scenario-based testing is already a well-known test approach to the automotive industry for Validation, Verification and Testing of Connected Automated Vehicles. How construct scenarios complex traffic environment major challenge this method. A common generating collecting post-processing natural data with lot time money costs. In order reduce cost scenario collection, we propose low-cost method based on Microscopic Traffic Simulation obtain large number urban scenarios. Based public data,...

COVID-19, a pandemic caused by the virus SARS-CoV-2, has spread globally, necessitating search for antiviral compounds. Transmembrane protease serine 2 (TMPRSS2) is cell surface that plays an essential role in SARS-CoV-2 infection. Therefore, researchers are searching TMPRSS2 inhibitors can be used treatment of COVID-19. As such, this study, based on crystal structure, we targeted active site virtual screening compounds FDA database. Then, screened lumacaftor and ergotamine, which showed...

In the context of energy crisis, optimal utilization clean agricultural waste is growing significance.

Development of monodispersed crystalline nanoparticles with previously unavailable spherical shapes continues to be a constant theme in wide range areas but remains challenge. On the basis situ vulcanization strategy and density functional calculations, we show that shape evolution uneven metal oxide can used achieve highly nanospheres by taking advantage unique lattice mismatch at interfaces between closely packed molybdenum dioxide layered sulfides. The MoO2 together adhered ultrathin MoS2...

To determine the effect of recorded maternal voice on emergence delirium (ED) in children under general anesthesia, a three-group randomized trial was conducted. A total 102 were randomly assigned to mother recording group (n = 34), stranger and control 34). All subjects assessed for ED with Pediatric Anesthesia Emergence Delirium Scale; pain Face, Legs, Activity, Cry, Consolability various recovery durations hemodynamic parameters at six time points. One-way analysis variance showed that...

To explore how exercise protects against mild cognitive impairment (MCI) from physical, psychological, and social perspectives, we conducted a cross-sectional study in four nursing homes Changchun, China, selected by convenience sampling. A total of 338 older adults aged 60 years or more with normal cognition MCI were included. Data including demographic characteristics, habits, frailty status, depression, sleep quality, support, status collected. Weighted least squares estimation mean...
