Article Abstract
Adapted physical activity (APA) is an important means of preventing sarcopenia. Our aim was to evaluate the impact on functional performance of a multi-component program entitled "circuit gym", including the use of muscle-strengthening machines specially designed for seniors. This was a single-center interventional study combining endurance, machine resistance and balance exercises, lasting three months. We included 95 patients (mean age 82.5 years, 59% women). A median increase of two points in the Short Physical Performance Battery was observed at the end of the program (p<0.0001), as well as a significant improvement in walking speed, chair raising and Timed Up and Go. This study demonstrated a functional improvement in elderly sarcopenic individuals at three months associated with multicomponent adapted physical activity.

The challenge of photocatalytic hydrogen production has motivated a targeted search for MXenes as a promising class of materials for this transformation because of their high mobility and high light absorption. High-throughput screening has been widely used to discover new materials, but the relatively high cost limits the chemical space for searching MXenes. We developed a deep-learning-enabled high-throughput screening approach that identified 14 stable candidates with suitable band alignment for water splitting from 23 857 MXenes.

The antibiotic contamination in aquatic environments, particularly in aquaculture systems, poses substantial risks to ecological balance and human health. To address this issue, we engineered a novel ratiometric fluorescent probe utilizing dual-emission carbon dots (D-CDs) synthesized from sustainable biomass carrot and nitrogen-rich precursors (melamine and o-phenylenediamine) through an efficient one-pot hydrothermal approach. The D-CDs exhibited dual emission peaks at 425nm and 540 nm under 370nm excitation.

A cost-effective and large-scale method for synthesizing ZnCoO nanoflowers with surface oxygen vacancies as electrode materials for supercapacitors is presented. The existence of oxygen vacancies on the surface of the ZnCoO nanoflowers has been confirmed through X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy (XPS). The energy bands and density of states (DOS) of ZnCoO are examined using density functional theory, revealing that treatment with NaBH reduces the band gap of ZnCoO while increasing the DOS near the Fermi level compared to pristine ZnCoO.

Molecular piezoelectrics have garnered significant attention in energy harvesting and sensing fields due to their high intrinsic piezoelectricity, low elastic properties, and excellent solution processability. Recent efforts have primarily focused on rationally tuning the piezoelectric performance of these materials through the molecular predesign of organic components. However, the regulation of piezoelectric properties via the central metal ion has remained relatively underexplored.
