Comparison of computed tomography–guided core needle biopsy of pulmonary nodules performed with and without the coaxial technique

Videosurgery and Other Miniinvasive Techniques
Introduction: Computed tomography (CT)-guided core needle biopsy (CNB) is a common method for diagnosing pulmonary nodules (PNs). It is often performed using the coaxial technique (CAT) to streamline the process.

Leveraging Data‐Driven and Fundamental Insights for Electrolyte Innovation in Lithium Metal Batteries

Advanced Materials, EarlyView.
Using 640 curated electrolyte formulations, we apply data‐driven analysis to reveal how molecular features govern coulombic efficiency (CE) in lithium metal batteries. Fluorine content correlates positively with CE, while oxygen, carbon, and higher boiling points correlate negatively.
