A Novel Theoretical Hypothesis on Comorbidity in the Elderly-The Disease of Sympathetic Overdrive (DSO).

The coexistence of multimorbidity and geriatric syndromes is a big character and role target to manage for the clinic works in older age, but related theories still require innovation and exploration. The disease of sympathetic overdrive (DSO) is a new hypothesis, a disease full of characteristics of organics and emotion, multiple systems, and lifestyle illness. The hypothesis of DSO might be able to explain and improve the theory about the coexistence of multimorbidity and geriatric syndromes and even more!.

Free-form surface machining strategy and shape error correction method based on slow tool servo turning.

Since the measurement accuracy limits the machining quality of free-form surfaces, compensated machining is challenging in convergent shape errors effectively. Therefore, a free-form surface machining strategy is investigated based on slow tool servo technology and its shape error correction method. An iterative accuracy-adjusted surface matching measurement strategy based on the improved combined CPD and ICP algorithms is proposed, in which the measured surface is aligned with the theoretical surface in the same coordinate system through translational and rotational coordinate transformations to accurately obtain the surface shape error after single-point diamond turning machining for compensation.

Fast UV-Curable Zwitter-Wettable Coatings with Reliable Antifogging/Frost-Resisting Performances.

Antifogging surfaces with unique properties to migrate severe fog formation have gained extensive interest, which is of particular interest for transparent substrates to obtain high visibility and transparency. To date, a large number of strategies including superhydrophilic or superhydrophobic surfaces and titanium dioxide (TiO)-based composite coatings have been developed based on different mechanisms. Although these surfaces exhibit effective antifogging properties, the rigid nanostructures, cumbersome preparation, and the need for UV light excitation largely limit their widespread applications.

An update in clinical utilization of photodynamic therapy for lung cancer.

Lung cancer is one of the leading causes of cancer-related death worldwide, with nearly 1.8 million-diagnosis and 1.59 million deaths.

Diagnostic Performance of Abnormal Nulling on Cardiac Magnetic Resonance Imaging Look Locker Inversion Time Sequence in Differentiating Cardiac Amyloidosis Types.

Purpose: To evaluate the diagnostic utility of the Look Locker inversion time (TI) sequence on cardiac magnetic resonance imaging in patients with suspected cardiac amyloidosis and to evaluate whether there are differences in the nulling pattern between amyloid types.

Materials And Methods: A total of 144 patients with suspected cardiac amyloidosis who had undergone cardiac magnetic resonance imaging were included in this retrospective study. Sixty-four had cardiac amyloidosis (62.

Acute poisoning in Shenyang, China: a retrospective and descriptive study from 2012 to 2016.

Objectives: Up-to-date information on the patterns of acute poisoning is crucial for the proper management of poisoning events. The objectives of this study were to analyse the characteristics of patients suffering from acute poisoning admitted to the emergency department (ED) in a tertiary medical centre in Northeast China and to compare these characteristics with those of a previous comparable study.

Design: Retrospective and descriptive study.
