Will e-bikes revolutionize urban mobility? Development and application of a transport model differentiating between conventional and electric bicycle traffic

European Transport Studies
Increasing cycling is crucial for building sustainable cities. Electric bicycles reduce the physical effort required for cycling, particularly in hilly areas and for individuals with limited strength, contributing to lower car use and promoting social ...

Neutrophil‐Mimetic MRI Enables Ultra‐Early Detection of Vascular Inflammation After Stroke

Advanced Healthcare Materials, EarlyView.
In this study, we developed neutrophil‐mimetic MRI probes that detect ultra‐early neuroinflammation following ischemic stroke by targeting E‐selectin. Within seconds of their injection, these microparticles mimic initial leukocyte adhesion to the activated cerebral endothelium.

Pyrolysis Induced Interphase and Structural Stabilization of Silicon‐Tin Disulfide/PAN Composite Electrode Materials for Li‐Ion Batteries

Advanced Materials Interfaces, EarlyView.
A Si and SnS2 based dual‐alloy anode material for metal‐ion battery applications with improved structural, interfacial and electrochemical properties is synthesized via a single‐step solid‐state pyrolysis process. During the pyrolysis step, SnS2 and Si are embedded in a porous, carbonized PAN‐based matrix, which is electronically and ionically ...

Nonlocomotory Robotic Strategies for Dynamic Rotation Control in Terrestrial Robots: A Review

Advanced Robotics Research, EarlyView.
Terrestrial robots increasingly require rapid body rotation to maintain stability and agility in complex environments. This review shows nonlocomotory rotational control strategies that operate without ground contact, including reaction wheels, tails, bars, limbs, and thrusters.

Utility of Provocative Testing in the Diagnosis and Genotyping of Congenital Long QT Syndrome: A Systematic Review and Meta‐Analysis

Journal of the American Heart Association: Cardiovascular and Cerebrovascular Disease, 2022
Background Diagnosis is particularly challenging in concealed or asymptomatic long QT syndrome (LQTS). Provocative testing, unmasking the characterization of LQTS, is a promising alternative method for the diagnosis of LQTS, but without uniform standards.

A Perspective on the Applications of Triphasic Gas Storage in Electrochemical Systems

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
Gas storage in microporous materials positioned locally at an electrode or electrocatalyst surface enhances electrochemical processes. Abstract Microporous materials store gases under dry conditions (e.g., hydrogen or oxygen via physisorption), but in some cases microporous materials also show triphasic (e.g., in a solid|gas|liquid system) gas storage ...
