© 2020 The Authors.A new nanohybrid material is prepared by attaching CdTe nanoneedles (NNs) to surface-modified ZnSe quantum dots (QDs). The NNs and QDs are prepared by a colloidal synthesis method in an aqueous alkaline medium. The surface modification and the attachment of nanostructures are achieved by a bifunctional ligand…[Read more]

BACKGROUND Perinatal depression is a significant contributor to maternal morbidity and mortality globally. Migrant women, particularly those living in low- and middle-income settings, represent a particularly vulnerable group due to stressors experienced before, during and after migration. The vast majority of global migration flows occurring…[Read more]

Wearable sweat sensors have spearheaded the thrust toward personalized health monitoring with continuous, real-time, and molecular-level insight in a noninvasive manner. However, effective sweat sampling still remains a huge challenge. Here, we introduce an intelligent Janus textile band that bridges the gap between self-pumping sweat collection,…[Read more]

Although PCBP1-deleted livers were iron-deficient, dietary iron supplementation did not prevent steatosis; instead, dietary iron restriction and antioxidant therapy with vitamin E prevented liver disease. PCBP1-deleted hepatocytes exhibited increased labile iron and production of reactive oxygen species, were hypersensitive to iron and…[Read more]
