A series of novel substituted triazines bearing a benzimidazole scaffold were designed and synthesized based on the structures of known anti-cancer agents, namely gedatolisib and alpelisib. All the target compounds were screened for inhibitory activity against PI3Kα and mTOR kinases. Notably, most a...

BACKGROUND AND OBJECTIVES: Declines in stroke admission, IV thrombolysis (IVT), and mechanical thrombectomy volumes were reported during the first wave of the COVID-19 pandemic. There is a paucity of data on the longer-term effect of the pandemic on stroke volumes over the course of a year and throu...

Polychlorinated naphthalenes (PCNs) are globally transported, carcinogenic, persistent organic pollutants (POPs) that were recently added to the Stockholm Convention with 184 parties. The Tibetan Plateau plays an important role in the global transportation and distribution of POPs. Knowledge of PCN ...

NiOx is regarded as a kind of promising hole transport material in inverted perovskite solar cells (PSCs); however, the uncontrolled defects and unfavorable reactions within the perovskite layer go against device stability and power conversion efficiency (PCE). The pristine NiOx hole transport layer...

In this paper, an electrically tunable metasuface is designed for visible regime. The device mainly consists of a V-shaped metallic metasurface, an ITO film, an electro-optic (EO) dielectric and a metal layer fabricated on a silica substrate. A continuous electrical modulation of resonant wavelength...

Abstract The IV–VI compound GeTe is considered as a promising alternative to the toxic PbTe for high‐efficiency mid‐temperature thermoelectric applications. However, pristine GeTe suffers from a high concentration of Ge vacancies, resulting in an excessively high hole concentration (> 1 × 10 21 c...

Abstract At advanced phases of atherosclerosis, the rupture and thrombogenesis of vulnerable plaques emerge as primary triggers for acute cardiovascular events and fatalities. Pathogenic infection such as periodontitis-associated Porphyromonas gingivalis ( Pg ) has been suspected of increasing the r...

Abstract Metal-hydrogen systems have attracted intense interest for diverse energy-related applications. However, metals usually reduce their ductility after hydrogenation. Here, we show that hydrogen can take the form of nano-sized ordered hydrides (NOH) homogeneously dispersed in a stable glassy s...

Carbon nanodots (CNDs) exhibiting concentration dependent properties have been synthesized through a one-pot hydrothermal reaction process utilizing diethylenetriamine and l-aspartic acid. At solid-state or high concentrations, the CNDs display excitation-wavelength independent fluorescence (FL) emi...

In this paper, a novel two-phase orthogonal frequency division multiplexing-index modulation (OFDM-IM)-aided cooperative relaying protocol is proposed for overlay cognitive radio (CR) networks, where the primary and secondary networks work concurrently over the same spectrum band. In the proposed sc...

BACKGROUND: AI learning anxiety and job substitution anxiety hinder the use of AI in healthcare. Primary nurses lack training resources, a strong sense of substitution risk, and weak organizational support. Trust is the key to solving AI anxiety and using AI among primary nurses. Therefore, this stu...

Abstract A regional Climate‐Weather Research and Forecasting (CWRF) model with a 30‐km horizontal resolution was applied to simulate the East Asian summer monsoon (EASM) and climate in China from 1980 to 2016. As compared with observations and reanalysis data, the model can reasonably reproduce the ...
