Various surfactants of different molecular weights, including alkylamine, poly(oxypropylene) diamine (POP), and maleic anhydride grafted polypropylene (PPgMA) oligomers, were used for simultaneous funtionalization and reduction of graphite oxide (fGO). In this study, the effect of molecular weight a...

In this paper, a new method to the preparation of low-dielectric nanoporous polyimide (PI) films was addressed, based on the self-assembly structures of PS-b-P4VP/poly(amic acid) (PAA, precursor of PI) blends. It is found the microphase-separation structure of PS-b-P4VP/PAA is a precondition of the...

Introduction. Cervical cancer (CC) remains the most common cancer in women worldwide. However, effective and specific biomarkers for the diagnosis and prognosis of cervical cancer are yet to be found. In recent years, the potential of circular RNAs (circRNAs) as new diagnostic, prognostic and therap...

Most patients with hypertension require more than one agent to control blood pressure (BP). The purpose of this study was to assess the efficacy and safety of the angiotensin II receptor blocker olmesartan medoxomil in combination with hydrochlorothiazide (HCTZ). This was a randomized, double-blind,...

3D scene flow aims to recover the dense geometry and 3D motion of dynamic scenes. This paper explores the transformation and adaptation of the 2D-3D feature space in the joint estimation of optical flow and scene flow. Our key insight is to fully leverage the unique characteristics of each modality...

The composites consisting of ethylene-vinyl acetate rubber (EVM) and acrylonitrile butadiene rubber (NBR) were prepared by two-step blending method, and were reinforced with carbon black (CB) using 1,4-bis(tert-butylperoxyisopropyl) benzene (BIPB) as crosslinking agent. In addition, wear and oil res...

Multi-walled carbon nanotubes (MWCNTs) were functionalized by polydopamine (PDA)-coating and mixed with natural rubber (NR) via latex compounding. Compared with pristine MWCNTs, the surface of MWCNT-PDA was covered by an amorphous and nanometer-scale PDA layer which had a large amount of oxygenic an...

This study was conducted to investigate the effects of monochromatic light on the growth performance, muscle development, and blood parameters of goslings from one to 14 days of age. A total of 192 male Sichuan White goslings were randomly assigned at hatching to four treatment groups of 48 birds,...

Graphene oxide coated silica hybirds (SiO2-GO) were fabricated through electrostatic assembly in this work, then blended with poly(vinylidene fluoride) (PVDF) by solution mixing to make PVDF nanocomposites. The interfacial interaction was investigated by scanning electron microscopy (SEM), polarized...

Metastases are considered to be a key mechanism for the spread of malignant tumors, whereby tumor cells separate from the primary site and form new tumor nodes in various parts of the body. Bone tissue, including the spine, is often affected by metastases, which can significantly worsen the prognosi...

ABSTRACT Objective Basic science studies have shown that essential oils have antibacterial and anti‐inflammatory effects in the nasal mucosa. However, clinical studies examining the effect of essential oils on patient outcomes are limited. The aim of this systematic review is to evaluate the patient...
