Delay-Oriented Cross-Tier Handover Optimization in Ultra-Dense Heterogeneous Networks

IEEE Access, 2019
To meet the ever-growing demand and service requirement, especially for delay-sensitive services like vehicular communications, small cells consisting of low-power base stations (BSs) are deployed to undertake the traffic pressure of BSs in macro cells ...

Design Strategies and Emerging Applications of High‐Performance Flexible Piezoresistive Pressure Sensors

Advanced Functional Materials, EarlyView.
Flexible piezoresistive pressure sensors underpin wearable and soft electronics. This review links sensing physics, including contact resistance modulation, quantum tunneling and percolation, to unified materials/structure design. We highlight composite and graded architectures, interfacial/porous engineering, and microstructured 3D conductive networks

Synthesis and Evaluation of Aquatic Antimicrobial Peptides Derived from Marine Metagenomes Using a High-Throughput Screening Approach

Marine Drugs
Bacterial diseases cause high mortality and considerable losses in aquaculture. The rapid expansion of intensive aquaculture has further increased the risk of large-scale outbreaks. However, the emergence of drug-resistant bacteria, food safety concerns,

How the Carrier Mobility and Seebeck Coefficient of Doped Semiconducting Polymers Are Controlled by Counterion Interactions and Mesoscale Order

Advanced Functional Materials, EarlyView.
Conventional doping of P3HT with F4TCNQ results in poor charge transport. However, when F4TCNQ is exchanged with LiTFSI, the transport characteristics are greatly enhanced. We find the increase in charge transport is directly related to an increase in the mesoscale ordering of P3HT, resulting in longer and better‐connected transport pathways.

Single-cell transcriptomics reveals writers of RNA modification-mediated immune microenvironment and cardiac resident Macro-MYL2 macrophages in heart failure

BMC Cardiovascular Disorders
Background Heart failure (HF), which is caused by cardiac overload and injury, is linked to significant mortality. Writers of RNA modification (WRMs) play a crucial role in the regulation of epigenetic processes involved in immune response and ...

Weak Supervision with Arbitrary Single Frame for Micro- and Macro-expression Spotting

Frame-level micro- and macro-expression spotting methods require time-consuming frame-by-frame observation during annotation. Meanwhile, video-level spotting lacks sufficient information about the location and number of expressions during training, resulting in significantly inferior performance compared with fully-supervised spotting.

Exploring an Alternative to mRNA Vaccine Cold Chain Storage: MRNA‐Lipid Nanoparticle Stability When Dried in a Polymer Matrix

Advanced Functional Materials, EarlyView.
The nanostructure, size, and function of mRNA‐loaded lipid nanoparticles are evaluated before drying, within polymer microneedles, and after rehydration. The results reveal the polymer and LNP loadings required to recover nanostructure and preserve the delivery performance in dry‐state formulations.
