Summary: Commercially available electrochromic (EC) windows are based on solid-state devices in which WO3 and NiOx films commonly serve as the EC and counter electrode layers, respectively.These metal oxide layers are typically physically deposited under vacuum, a time- and capital-intensive process when using rigid substrates.Herein we report a fa
Mycoplasma pneumoniae is a common organism responsible for pediatric community-acquired pneumonia.Extrapulmonary complications including thrombosis, although rare, are known to be associated with foot plug severe M.pneumoniae pneumonia.We report the case of left atrial thrombus extending into right inferior pulmonary vein in a child with severe M.p
Background and purpose: Men and women show different reactions to trauma and that is believed to be the reason behind the higher prevalence of post-traumatic stress disorder (PTSD) in women.Cholinergic signaling has long been known to be involved in the processing of fear-related information and the amygdala is a critical center for fear modulation
The accumulation of waste tires is a global resource and environmental problem.The landfill or incineration of tires will infiltrate toxic chemicals into the surrounding environment, which poses a serious ecological threat to the environment.A large number of studies have shown that waste tires can be used in geotechnical engineering, which provide
Abstract Background Venous blood sampling is a common procedure in health care.It is strictly regulated by national and international guidelines.Deviations from guidelines due to human mistakes can cause patient harm.Validated questionnaires for health care personnel can be used to assess preventable "near misses"--i.e.potential errors and nonconfo
