Reversible protonic ceramic cells (R-PCCs) are a kind of distinguished long-time energy conversion and storage device. The utilization of oxygen electrodes is vital to achieve high electrochemical performances for R-PCCs, demanding high catalytic activity toward oxygen reduction reaction (ORR), oxygen evolution reaction (OER), and appropriate thermal expansion coefficients (TEC). Herein, novel high-entropy perovskites PrBaSrLaNdMeO (Me = Co, Fe, Mn) are explored.

The HLA-B*15:02 allele is strongly associated with adverse drug reactions induced by aromatic antiseizure medications such as carbamazepine and oxcarbazepine. Consequently, it is strongly recommended to test for the presence of the HLA-B*15:02 allele before prescribing these medications. Traditional HLA genotyping methods (e.

T lymphocytes are pivotal targets in clinical cancer immunotherapy; however, tumor cells frequently evade the T-cell attacks by altering the intrinsic immunogenicity manifested as adjuvanticity, antigenicity, and reactogenicity. Here, a bacterial outer membrane vesicle (OMVs)-based nanosystem is presented to elicit robust T-cell responses by reshaping tumor immunogenicity. OMVs are engineered with vesicular stomatitis virus G-protein that facilitates the fusion of OMVs with tumor cells, leading to tumor "foreignization" and adjuvanticity augment.

This report describes the case of a 30-year-old female with a family history of gout who had recurrent knee swelling and low back pain for 2 years, initially misdiagnosed with ankylosing spondylitis. Laboratory findings showed episodic hyperuricemia and elevated inflammatory markers, while MRI revealed bilateral sacroiliitis and bone island in the right sacroiliac joint.

Shenwu Capsule (SWC), shown to have therapeutic efficacy in phase III clinical trials for senile dementia, has unclear mechanisms and active ingredients. Aged mice were administered SWC orally for three months, and behavioral tests, including the Morris water maze, Y maze, and novel object recognition, assessed learning and memory.

Repetitive transcranial magnetic stimulation (rTMS) of the prefrontal cortex (PFC) and transcutaneous electrical nerve stimulation (TENS) have both been demonstrated as effective at alleviating neuropathic pain (NP). However, the comparative efficacy of these two neuromodulation techniques and the specific neural mechanisms underlying their effects remain unclear. This study aims to compare the efficacy of rTMS in the PFC and TENS in mitigating peripheral NP and to investigate the impact of rTMS on neuroinflammation.

This study emphasizes the application of AI in areas such as automatic segmentation of infarct areas, detection of large vessel occlusion, prediction of stroke outcomes, assessment of hemorrhagic transformation risk, forecasting of recurrent ischemic stroke risk, and automatic grading of collateral circulation. The research indicates that Machine Learning (ML) and Deep Learning (DL) technologies have tremendous potential for improving diagnostic accuracy, accelerating disease identification, and predicting disease progression and treatment responses.

The study aimed to assess the analgesic effect of 10 Hz repetitive transcranial magnetic stimulation (rTMS) targeted to the prefrontal cortex (PFC) region on neuropathic pain (NPP) in rats with chronic constriction injury (CCI) of the sciatic nerve, and to investigate the possible underlying mechanism. Rats were randomly divided into three groups: sham operation, CCI, and rTMS. In the latter group, rTMS was applied to the left PFC.
