Advanced Engineering Materials, EarlyView.Sol–gel‐derived ZnO–rGO hybrid nanoparticles enable Al7075 powder‐metallurgy composites to achieve concurrent gains in hardness and thermal conductivity while markedly lowering friction and wear. The hybrid architecture couples ZnO‐based load support with rGO‐assisted lamellar sliding and heat spreading, revealing a promising route toward lightweight ...

The effect of the quality of Papanicolaou smears on the detection of cytologic abnormalities [PDF]
Cancer, 1999 Controversy continues regarding the relation between the quality of Papanicolaou (Pap) smears, especially the presence of endocervical cells (ECC), with the finding of cytologic abnormalities.As part of a study regarding performance feedback on the quality of Pap smears, data from 56,475 Pap smears obtained by 176 participating clinicians over a 20 ...

Electrified Damage in Motion Systems
Advanced Engineering Materials, EarlyView.The electrified damage in motion systems is a fundamental framework presenting the degradation pathway arising from the coupling of electrical energy transport with mechanical contact and interfacial chemistry. The framework positions electrified damage as a distinct degradation regime with unique characteristic surface morphologies and failures of ...

Exciton Binding Energy of Phosphorescent Emitter Molecules in Organic Light‐Emitting Diodes
Advanced Functional Materials, EarlyView.Energy level alignment is key to efficient OLED design, yet determining LUMO energies remains challenging. A methodology based on field‐induced dissociation and kinetic Monte Carlo simulations is presented to extract LUMO energies of iridium‐based phosphorescent emitters from their exciton binding energy.

The Effect of Vaginal Lubrication on Unsatisfactory Results of Cervical Smears
Journal of Lower Genital Tract Disease, 2015 Speculum lubrication with water-based gels before cervical smear sampling has been investigated and commented on thoroughly during the last decade. The present meta-analysis was based on randomized and quasi-randomized control trials and evaluated its impact on unsatisfactory cytologic results.
