A novel P-type Buried Layer Diode-Triggered Silicon-Controlled Rectifier (PBL-DTSCR) with predicted good performance in electrostatic discharge (ESD) protection is proposed in this work. With P-type ESD implantations and silicide blocking layers applied to this novel structure, the efficiency of the diode triggering path is greatly improved, thus enhancing the discharge efficiency of the main path. Moreover, the parasitic SCR path is minimized by replacing the PNPN structure in conventional DTSCR to PNPNPN structure in PBL-DTSCR.

This article comprehensively analyzes the new developments and challenges faced by several typical prediction models in the field of radiation effects in recent years. The models discussed include the RPP model, the extended RPP (rectangular parallelepiped) model, and the IRPP (integral rectangular parallelepiped) model. The article conducts a comprehensive analysis of the limitations of the assumption that uses the linear energy transfer (LET) of incident particles and the SEU (single-particle upset) cross-section (without considering the energy and type of ions) to predict the rate of single-particle effects (SEUs).

The development of an integrated circuit faces the challenge of the physical limit of Moore's Law. One of the most important "Beyond Moore" challenges is the scaling down of Metal-Oxide-Semiconductor Field-Effect Transistors (MOSFETs) versus their increasing static power consumption. This is because, at room temperature, the thermal emission transportation mechanism will cause a physical limitation on subthreshold swing (), which is fundamentally limited to a minimum value of 60 mV/decade for MOSFETs, and accompanied by an increase in off-state leakage current with the process of scaling down.

Objective: To assess adverse drug events (ADEs) associated with Bortezomib, Carfilzomib, and Ixazomib in MM patients using the FDA Adverse Event Reporting System (FAERS), and to identify new ADE signals not listed in product labels.
Methods: A total of 47,310 ADE reports (Bortezomib: 23,843; Carfilzomib: 9,835; Ixazomib: 13,632) were analyzed from FAERS (2004 - Q4 2024).
Background: Precocious puberty (PP) is the early onset of secondary sexual characteristics before the typical age of puberty, which can be caused by hormonal imbalances or external factors, such as medications. Drug-induced precocious puberty (DIPP) has become a growing concern, particularly in pediatric populations. However, the impact of gender differences on DIPP risk and the challenges in drug safety assessments have not been fully explored.

Unlike conventional metabolomics, which lacks spatial resolution, spatial metabolomics enables the visualization of metabolic interactions among cancer cells, stromal components, and immune cells within their native tissue context. Despite its growing significance, a systematic and visualized analysis of spatial metabolomics in cancer research remains lacking, particularly in the integration of multi-omics data and the standardization of methodologies for comprehensive tumor metabolic mapping.

Although chemotherapy, targeted therapy, and immunotherapy have achieved certain therapeutic effects in recent years, immune evasion by tumor cells remains a key factor in the relapse and refractoriness of AML. Current research suggests that arsenic trioxide (Arsenic Trioxide, ATO) can regulate autophagy and upregulate NKG2D ligands (NKG2D-L) on the surface of AML cells, while the NKG2D-NKG2D-L axis is negatively associated with AML immune evasion.

IntroductionDrug-induced myelosuppression (DIM) is a serious side effect of several medications, particularly chemotherapy, immunosuppressants, and targeted therapies, which can lead to infections, anemia, and bleeding. While these drugs are effective, their adverse effects can disrupt treatment plans and reduce quality of life. However, early identification of DIM remains challenging, as many associated drugs do not explicitly list this risk, complicating clinical monitoring.

Background: Drug-induced second tumors (DIST) refer to new primary cancers that develop during or after the treatment of an initial cancer due to the long-term effects of medications. As a severe long-term adverse event, DIST has gained widespread attention globally in recent years. With the increasing prevalence of cancer treatments and the prolonged survival of patients, drug-induced second tumors have become more prominent and pose a significant public health challenge.

Background: Insomnia is a widespread sleep disorder that significantly affects the quality of life and contributes to immune dysfunction, which in turn leads to chronic diseases. Despite extensive research on sleep disturbances and immune modulation, the relationship between insomnia and immune responses remains underexplored.
Objectives: The primary objective of this study was to conduct a bibliometric analysis to explore the interaction between immune cells and insomnia, identifying key immune responses involved and their potential roles in the development of insomnia and associated comorbidities.

This study investigates the response of nanowire field-effect transistors (NWFETs) to total ionizing dose (TID), single-event transient (SET), and their coupling effects in junctionless (JL), inversion (IM), and junctionless accumulation (AC) modes. The degradation of the three modes under irradiation and the effect of device bias configuration on the electrical properties of NWFETs are analyzed, and the different effects of SET on the three modes are compared. On this basis, the influence of TID on SET current generation and the charge collection mechanism are studied, and the changes in peak current, pulse width, and collected charge of transient current under different TIDs are compared.
