Electricity generation from flowing water has been developed for over a century and plays critical role in our lives. Generally, heavy complex facilities are required electricity generation, while using these technologies applications that require small size high flexibility is difficult. Here, we fluidic nanogenerator fiber an aligned carbon nanotube sheet to generate any source the environment as well human body. The power conversion efficiency reached 23.3 %. was flexible stretchable,...
In this paper, we establish a KAM theorem for an infinite dimensional reversible system with unbounded perturbation, by which obtain quasi-periodic solutions of class nonlinear Schödinger equations derivative in terms, subject to Dirichlet boundary conditions.
A one-dimensional soft and color-programmable light-emitting device is developed with high stretchability.
Large-scale populations in the world have been vaccinated with COVID-19 vaccines, however, breakthrough infections of SARS-CoV-2 are still growing rapidly due to emergence immune-evasive variants, especially Omicron. It is urgent develop effective broad-spectrum vaccines better control pandemic these variants. Here, we present a mosaic-type trimeric form spike receptor-binding domain (mos-tri-RBD) as vaccine candidate, which carries key mutations from Omicron and other circulating Tests rats...
As China is one of high MDR-TB burden countries, it important to determine the drug resistant pattern and clinical characteristics multidrug tuberculosis (MDR-TB). We conducted a comprehensive nationwide study on in 17 provinces for period from June 2009 2015, total 1154 cases were finally investigated. The sought assess features contrast susceptibility profiles patients China. Cavitary disease, young age, long duration TB disease among predictors. A resistance proportion first-line drugs...
In this paper, a current density convolution finite-difference time-domain method is extended to study the electromagnetic wave propagation and absorption in inhomogeneous magnetized plasmas. First of all, we analyze homogeneous plasmas for arbitrary magnetic inclination angle. Then, studied three types plasma absorption, including resonance, electron cyclotron upper hybrid resonance This model applied simulate heating mechanism during ionospheric modification experiments by high-power...
Background: Real-world evidence on the effectiveness of inactivated vaccines against Delta and Omicron (BA.2.38) variants remains scarce. Methods: A retrospective cohort study was conducted to estimate adjusted vaccine (aVE) one, two, three doses in attenuating pneumonia, severe COVID-19, duration viral shedding cases using modified Poisson linear regression as appropriate. Results: total 561 COVID-19 were included (59.2% 40.8% Omicron). In total, 56.4% (184) 12.0% (27) had pneumonia....
EEG is widely applied in motor imagery because of its non-invasive and easy access. However, multi-channel signals cause noise interference redundant information. Channel selection can reduce the noisy signal to obtain more real signals. Therefore, many studies focus on influence channel algorithms motion decoding. This paper summarizes characteristics methods for decoding imagination tasks compares their results. One way select based neural network takes as input parameter network; Another...

Abstract A new family of mechanochromic photonic‐crystal fibers exhibits tunable structural colors under stretching. This novel fiber is prepared by depositing polymer microspheres onto a continuous aligned‐carbon‐nanotube sheet that has been wound on an elastic poly(dimethylsiloxane) fiber, followed further embedding in poly(dimethylsiloxane). The color the can be tuned varying size and center‐to‐center distance spheres. It experiences reversible rapid multicolor changes during stretch...
Functional connectivity (FC) is the degree of synchrony time series between distinct, spatially separated brain regions. While traditional FC analysis assumes temporal stationarity throughout a scan, there growing recognition that can change over and not stationary, leading to concept dynamic (dFC). Resting-state functional magnetic resonance imaging (fMRI) assess dFC using sliding window method with correlation fMRI signals. Accurate statistical inference must consider autocorrelated nature...
Tuberculosis is a leading cause of morbidity and mortality in humans worldwide. There an urgent need for new effective drugs to treat tuberculosis shorten the duration therapy. 1, 25-dihydroxy vitamin D3 (1,25 (OH)2D3) has been reported have synergistic effect with pyrazinamide (PZA) killing tubercle bacilli vitro. The addition 1,25 (OH)2D3 standard treatment should benefit patients if adjunctive drug vivo. Thus, this study, calcitriol (bioactive was administered mice undergoing...
OBJECTIVES: Tuberculosis (TB) treatment outcomes are a key indicator in the assessment of TB control programs. We aimed to identify spatial factors associated with outcomes, and provide additional insights into from geographical perspective.METHODS: collected data electronic surveillance system Shanghai, China included pulmonary patients registered January 1, 2009 December 31, 2016. examined associations physical accessibility hospitals, an autoregression term, random hospital effects...
This article investigates the choice of working covariance structures in analysis spatially correlated observations motivated by cardiac imaging data. Through Monte Carlo simulations, we found that structure affects efficiency estimator and power test. Choosing popular unstructured results an over-inflated Type I error possibly due to a sample size not large enough relative number parameters being estimated. With regard model fit indices, Bayesian Information Criterion outperforms Akaike...
1 Abstract Vagus nerve stimulation (VNS) is FDA approved for stroke rehabilitation, epilepsy, and depression; however, the vagus functional anatomy underlying implant poorly understood. We used microCT to quantify fascicular structure neuroanatomy within human cervical nerves. Fascicles split or merged every ~560 μm (17.8 ± 6.1 events/cm). The high degree of splitting merging in humans may explain clinical heterogeneity patient responses.
Abstract BACKGROUND: Tuberculous pleural effusion (TPE) is the most common extrapulmonary manifestation and may have lasting effect on lung function. however conventional diagnostic tests for TPE register multiple limitations. OBJECTIVES: To investigate efficacy of interferon gamma release assay (IGRA: T-SPOT.TB) in patients different characteristics. METHODS: We performed a prospective, single-centre study including all suspected consecutively from June 2015 to October 2018. By using...

Publication bias occurs when the publication of research results depends not only on quality but also its nature and direction. The consequence is that published studies may be truly representative all valid undertaken, this threaten validity systematic reviews meta-analyses - which evidence-based medicine increasingly relies. Multivariate meta-analysis has recently received increasing attention for ability reducing potential improving statistical efficiency by borrowing information across...
