Published: January 2024

AbstractThermoelectric devices (TEDs) show great potential for waste heat energy recycling and sensing. However, existing TEDs cannot be self‐adapted to the complex quadratic surface, leading to significant heat loss and restricting their working scenario. Here, surface‐conformable origami‐TEDs (o‐TEGs) are developed through programmable crease‐designed origami substrates and the screen‐printing TE legs. Compared with “π” structured TEDs, the origami design (with heat conductive materials) changed the heat‐transferring direction of the laminated TE legs, resulting in an enhancement in enlarging ΔT/THotandVoutby 5.02 and 3.51 times. Four o‐TEDs with different creases designs are fabricated to verify the heat recycling ability on plane and central quadratic surfaces. Demonstrating a highVoutdensity (up to 0.98 −2at ΔTof 50 K) and good surface conformability, o‐TEDs are further used in thermal touch panels attached to multiple surfaces, allowing information to be wirelessly transferred on a remote display via finger‐writing.
Unconventional Copper Electrochemistry in Aqueous Zn‖CuMn2O4 Batteries

Published: January 2024

AbstractManganese oxide is among the most promising cathode materials for rechargeable aqueous zinc‐ion batteries due to its abundant reserves, low toxicity, and high theoretical capacity. However, the occurrence of Mn dissolution and structural collapse during the charge and discharge process, as well as the hydrogen evolution reaction, zinc dendrite formation, and corrosion on the anode surface, have seriously hindered practical applications. Here, a novel cathode material design is proposed intended to enhance both cathode and anode stability simultaneously. Specifically, an inherently stable CuMn2O4 is employed as cathode material, which demonstrates good maintenance of its spinel structure during cycling. Interestingly, insertion of Zn2+‐ions leads to the extraction of Cu2+‐ions from CuMn2O4, subsequently in situ reduces to Cu0, which results in extra capacity and improves electrical conductivity. The migration of Cu2+ ions into the Zn anode surface during the charge process eventuated the formation of copper–zinc alloys via electrodeposition. Moreover, the reconstructed anode exhibits superior stability and corrosion resistance during the Zn plating‐stripping process. Consequently, the CuMn2O4 electrode demonstrates a markedly improved cycle capability compared to the spinel Mn3O4 electrode. This study highlights an unconventional copper electrochemistry in aqueous Zn‐Mn batteries and introduces a new design principle for high‐performance aqueous zinc‐ion batteries.

AbstractTraditional challenges of poor cycling stability and low Coulombic efficiency in Zinc (Zn) metal anodes have limited their practical application. To overcome these issues, this work introduces a single metal‐atom design featuring atomically dispersed single copper (Cu) atoms on 3D nitrogen (N) and oxygen (O) co‐doped porous carbon (CuNOC) as a highly reversible Zn host. The CuNOC structure provides highly active sites for initial Zn nucleation and further promotes uniform Zn deposition. The 3D porous architecture further mitigates the volume changes during the cycle with homogeneous Zn2+ flux. Consequently, CuNOC demonstrates exceptional reversibility in Zn plating/stripping processes over 1000 cycles at 2 and 5 mA cm−2 with a fixed capacity of 1 mAh cm−2, while achieving stable operation and low voltage hysteresis over 700 h at 5 mA cm−2 and 5 mAh cm−2. Furthermore, density functional theory calculations show that co‐doping N and O on porous carbon with atomically dispersed single Cu atoms creates an efficient zincophilic site for stable Zn nucleation. A full cell with the CuNOC host anode and high loading V2O5 cathode exhibits outstanding rate‐capability up to 5 A g−1 and a stable cycle life over 400 cycles at 0.5 A g−1.

AbstractThe efficiency loss caused by area scaling is one of the key factors hindering the industrial development of perovskite solar cells. The energy loss and contact issues in the buried interface are the main reasons. Here, a new self‐assembled monolayer (SAM), Ph‐4PACz, with a large dipole moment (2.32 D) is obtained . It is found that Ph‐4PACz with high polarity can improve the band alignment and minimize the energy loss , resulting in an open‐circuit voltage (Voc) as high as 1.2 V for 1.55 eV perovskite. However, when applied to large‐area devices, the fill factor (FF) still suffered from significant attenuation. Therefore, alumina nanoparticles (Al2O3‐NPs) are introduced to the interface between Ph‐4PACz and rough FTO substrate to further improve the flatness , resulting in a conformal perovskite film with almost no voids in the buried interface, thus promoting low exciton binding energy, fast hot‐carrier extraction and low non‐radiative recombination. The final devices achieved a small‐area power conversion efficiency (PCE) of 25.60% and a large‐area (1 cm2) PCE of 24.61% (certified at 24.48%), which represents one of the highest PCE for single device ≥ 1 cm2 area. Additionally, mini‐modules and stability testing are also carried out to demonstrate the feasibility of commercialization.

AbstractData science methodologies can be utilized to ascertain and analyze clinical genetic data that is often unstructured and rarely used outside of patient encounters. Genetic variants from all genetic testing resulting to a large pediatric healthcare system for a 5‐year period were obtained and reinterpreted utilizing the previously validated Franklin© Artificial Intelligence (AI). Using PowerBI©, the data were further matched to patients in the electronic healthcare record to associate with demographic data to generate a variant data table and mapped by ZIP codes. Three thousand and sixty‐five variants were identified and 98% were matched to patients with geographic data. Franklin© changed the interpretation for 24% of variants. One hundred and fifty‐six clinically actionable variant reinterpretations were made. A total of 739 Mendelian genetic disorders were identified with disorder prevalence estimation. Mapping of variants demonstrated hot‐spots for pathogenic genetic variation such as PEX6‐associated Zellweger Spectrum Disorder. Seven patients were identified with Bardet‐Biedl syndrome and seven patients with Rett syndrome amenable to newly FDA‐approved therapeutics. Utilizing readily available software we developed a database and Exploratory Data Analysis (EDA) methodology enabling us to systematically reinterpret variants, estimate variant prevalence, identify conditions amenable to new treatments, and localize geographies enriched for pathogenic variants.

AbstractMetal halide perovskite single crystals are promising for diverse optoelectronic applications. As a universal issue of solution‐grown perovskite single crystals, surface contamination causes adverse effect on material properties and device performance. Herein, learning from the self‐cleaning effect of lotus leaf, we address the surface contamination issue by introducing an amphiphilic long‐chain organic amine into the perovskite crystal growth solution. Self‐assembly of CTAC provides a hydrophobic crystal surface, inducing spontaneous removal of residual growth solution, which results in clean surface and better optoelectronic properties of perovskite single crystals. An impressive efficiency of 23.4 % is obtained, setting a new record for FAxMA1‐xPbI3 single‐crystal perovskite solar cells (PSCs). Moreover, our strategy also applies to perovskite single crystals with different morphology and composition, which may contribute to improvement of other single‐crystal perovskite optoelectronic devices.

Published: January 2024

AbstractCranial bony projections (“headgear”) have diverse forms and functions, such as defense, species recognition, mate selection, and thermoregulation. Most commonly, they are associated with the artiodactyl infraorder, Pecora. All pecoran headgear—antlers, horns, ossicones, and pronghorns—are osseous protrusions of the frontal or parietal bone with an integumentary covering, although there is taxonomic, developmental, and compositional variation. However, compared with other pecorans, there is a dearth of literature addressing extant antilocaprids—Antilocapra americana. This study provides a foundational osteohistological description of A. americana pronghorn cores in order to start building a framework to better understand the complex interplay among microanatomy, development, behavior, environment, and phylogenetic history of pronghorn headgear. Osteohistological analysis of adult A. americana pronghorn cores reveal the inner medullary region is composed of trabecular bone. Based on similar studies in bovids, we propose that these trabeculae may function to reduce the effects of repeated loading incurred by intraspecific combat. The deep aspect of the outer region was found to be composed of compacted coarse cancellous bone and primary bone remodeled to dense Haversian bone, in both male and female specimens, respectively, and superficially composed of highly vascularized fibrolamellar bone. The presence of fibrolamellar bone may indicate that the bone is fast‐growing, and its presence at the periosteal surface suggests protracted growth of the pronghorn core beyond sexual maturity.

ObjectiveDespite scarce evidence, guidelines recommend weight loss as a management strategy for patients with gout. We investigated the effect of an intensive dietary intervention on body weight and clinical measures of gout severity in individuals with obesity and gout.MethodsWe conducted a 16‐week randomized nonmasked parallel‐group trial in Denmark, randomly assigning (one‐to‐one) individuals with obesity and gout to a low‐energy diet or a control diet. The primary outcome was change in body weight. Key secondary outcomes were changes in serum urate (SU) level and visual analog scale–assessed pain and fatigue.ResultsBetween December 1, 2018, and June 1, 2019, 61 participants were included in the intention‐to‐treat population and randomly assigned to the intensive diet group (n = 29) or control diet group (n = 32). Participants had a mean age of 60.3 (SD 9.9) years and mean body mass index of 35.6 (SD 5.0), and 59 (97%) were men. After 16 weeks, there was a significant difference in change in body weight between the diet and control groups (−15.4 vs −7.7 kg; difference −7.7 kg [95% confidence interval −10.7 to −4.7], P < 0.001). Despite results being potentially in favor of a low‐energy diet, we could not confirm differences in SU level changes and fatigue between groups. No differences in pain and gout flares were observed between groups. No serious adverse events or deaths occurred during the trial.ConclusionAn intensive dietary intervention was safe and effectively lowered body weight in people with obesity and gout, but the weight loss did not directly translate into effects on SU level, fatigue, and pain.

AbstractBackgroundThe Coronavirus (COVID‐19) is among the most contagious diseases worldwide. During the first peak of the illness, COVID‐19 was considered a considerable crisis for survivors. This qualitative study explored the meaning and lived experience of Iranian COVID‐19 survivors. This qualitative study was conducted in Iran sometime after the onset of the coronavirus in 2020.MethodsThis interpretative phenomenological analysis (IPA) was performed on twenty survivors of COVID‐19 disease, recruited through the purposeful sampling method via in‐depth semistructured interviews. The interviews were recorded and transcribed, and several codes were extracted. Data were analyzed using the MAXQDA software (v. 12).ResultsThe main themes and subthemes obtained from the data analysis included (1)Taboo and stigma: COVID‐19 as a monster, feelings of social exclusion and loneliness, an obvious sign of shamelessness and maltreatment, (2)God's predestination: God's will and test, COVID‐19 as a wake‐up call to remind low human power, (3)Shadow of death: The fear of death after positive test results, death is closer than the jugular vein, the mourning of a loved one's death, and mourning for an untimely death, (4)Caregivers as an angel: Family as an unrepentant supportive, know the level of family love and attention, and (5)Rebirth and new life: understand the higher value of health and pay more attention to self‐care behavior, and God gives us a golden chance to experience a better life.ConclusionsAccording to the results of this study, COVID‐19 survivors experience various issues regarding the nature of the disease, coping with the illness, and their social and psychological status affected by COVID‐19. Considering the multidimensional supportive programs, increasing public awareness and changing negative attitudes toward the patients and survivors of the pandemic for better rehabilitation and adjustment is essential.

AbstractBackgroundNeurodegenerative diseases lead to difficulties with functional activities. In Peru, most caregivers are family members. Little is known about the COVID‐19 pandemic's effect on caregivers in Peru.MethodsThis was a cross‐sectional, prospective study of family caregivers of dependent patients with dementia or Parkinson's Disease in Lima, Peru. A caregiver burden and mental health questionnaire was administered to the caregiver.ResultsWe enrolled 48 caregivers (65% females, mean ± SD age 49.0 ± 12.3 years); 70% of patients had dementia. Nearly 40% of caregivers reported having full‐time jobs, and 82% felt overwhelmed with almost 75% dedicating more time to caregiving during the pandemic. Caregivers perceived patients felt lonelier (52%), had an increase in hallucinations (50%), or forgetfulness (71%) compared to pre‐pandemic.ConclusionsOur study highlights that perceived caregiver burden and patient behavioral symptoms may have been exacerbated during the pandemic. In countries such as Peru, more caregiving resources and interventions are needed.
Reported history of childhood trauma, mentalizing deficits, and hypersomnia in adulthood: A mediational analysis in a nonclinical sample
Authors: Kalantar‐Hormozi Bessat , Mohammadkhani Shahram 
Published: January 2024

AbstractBackground and objectiveExisting research has confirmed the link between childhood trauma and poor sleep quality in adulthood. This study focused on the relationship between childhood trauma and hypersomnia specifically, which is understudied. Additionally, childhood maltreatment has been related to mentalizing deficits. The current study examined the role of mentalizing deficits as mediators between childhood trauma and hypersomnia.MethodThe study sample of this cross‐sectional study consisted of 496 individuals, who participated in the online survey, which contained the following measures: Persian version of the Mini Sleep Questionnaire, Reflective Functioning Questionnaire (RFQ‐8), and Childhood Trauma Questionnaire (CTQ).ResultsThe results from structural equation modeling indicated that emotional abuse positively predicts hypersomnia. Mediation analysis confirmed that hypo‐mentalizing partially mediates the association between emotional abuse and hypersomnia.ConclusionThe present study provides primary evidence that experiencing emotional abuse during childhood is associated with hypersomnia in adulthood. This association underlines the importance of prevention. The result from mediation analysis suggests addressing mentalizing impairments in patients with hypersomnia and a history of emotional abuse may be helpful.

Key Clinical MessageBullous pemphigoid did not follow the course of Gastric Carcinoma relapse and remisson, unlike the malignant acanthosis nigricans which was in alignment with the paraneoplastic effect of the Gastric Carcinoma.AbstractAcanthosis nigricans (AN) is a dermatosis characterized by the presence of hyperpigmented, velvety cutaneous thickening in the flexural areas, posterior neck, and occasionally the extensor surfaces of hand, face, and oral mucosa. AN is commonly associated with insulin resistance, drugs, and rarely internal malignancy (malignant AN). Bullous pemphigoid (BP) is an autoimmune blistering disease characterized by tense blisters involving the skin of mainly elderly patients. The association of BP and malignancy is not well established and the co‐existence of BP with AN has not been reported. Here we report a 58‐year‐old, event‐free gastric adenocarcinoma with three types of skin findings with different pathogenesis‐ BP, malignant AN, and erysipelas‐like metastasis.

Published: January 2024

AbstractHydrogen production by electrochemical water splitting is a very potential technology in hydrogen production at present. In particular, iron‐group metal compound electrocatalysts are promising materials for electrochemical water splitting due to high catalytic activity, good electrical conductivity, low cost, and environmental friendliness. However, the practical application of such catalysts was hindered for a long time due to low efficiency and poor long‐term stability. The introduction of metal/non‐metal or the preparation of heterostructures in the catalyst can enhance conductivity, accelerate charge transfer, and improve the stability of the catalyst. In this paper, we summarise recent research progress about iron‐group metal compound electrocatalysts in the hydrogen evolution reaction, oxygen evolution reaction, and overall water‐splitting, briefly discuss the remaining challenges in this field of research, and make suggestions for the preparation of future electrocatalysts.

AbstractEnhancing both the number of active sites available and the intrinsic activity of Co‐based electrocatalysts simultaneously is a desirable goal. Herein, a ZIF‐67‐derived hierarchical porous cobalt sulfide decorated by Au nanoparticles (NPs) (denoted as HP‐Au@CoxSy@ZIF‐67) hybrid is synthesized by low‐temperature sulfuration treatment. The well‐defined macroporous–mesoporous–microporous structure is obtained based on the combination of polystyrene spheres, as‐formed CoxSy nanosheets, and ZIF‐67 frameworks. This novel three‐dimensional hierarchical structure significantly enlarges the three‐phase interfaces, accelerating the mass transfer and exposing the active centers for oxygen evolution reaction. The electronic structure of Co is modulated by Au through charge transfer, and a series of experiments, together with theoretical analysis, is performed to ascertain the electronic modulation of Co by Au. Meanwhile, HP‐Au@CoxSy@ZIF‐67 catalysts with different amounts of Au were synthesized, wherein Au and NaBH4 reductant result in an interesting “competition effect” to regulate the relative ratio of Co2+/Co3+, and moderate Au assists the electrochemical performance to reach the highest value. Consequently, the optimized HP‐Au@CoxSy@ZIF‐67 exhibits a low overpotential of 340 mV at 10 mA cm–2 and a Tafel slope of 42 mV dec–1 for OER in 0.1 M aqueous KOH, enabling efficient water splitting and Zn–air battery performance. The work here highlights the pivotal roles of both microstructural and electronic modulation in enhancing electrocatalytic activity and presents a feasible strategy for designing and optimizing advanced electrocatalysts.
