We report here the discovery of the smallest possible carbon nanotube. This has a diameter
of 4 Å, which is the narrowest attainable that can still remain energetically stable, as …

There are disagreements among researchers about the association between vitamin D
deficiency during pregnancy and preterm birth (PTB). Therefore, we conducted a meta-analysis …

Graphene-based materials are promising electrodes for supercapacitors, owing to their
unique two-dimensional structure, high surface area, remarkable chemical stability, and …

We describe a graphene and single-walled carbon nanotube (SWCNT) composite film
prepared by a blending process for use as electrodes in high energy density supercapacitors. …

Endophytic fungi or endophytes exist widely inside the healthy tissues of living plants, and
are important components of plant micro-ecosystems. Over the long period of evolution, some …

Rationale: In the critically ill patients, lung ultrasound (LUS) is increasingly being used at
the bedside for assessing alveolar-interstitial syndrome, lung consolidation, pneumonia, …

We performed a genome-wide association study of esophageal squamous cell carcinoma (ESCC)
by genotyping 1,077 individuals with ESCC and 1,733 control subjects of Chinese …

Lung ultrasound can be routinely performed at the bedside by intensive care unit physicians
and may provide accurate information on lung status with diagnostic and therapeutic …

Community detection which discovers densely connected structures in a network has been
studied a lot. In this paper, we study online community search which is practically useful but …

Objective: Postextubation distress after a successful spontaneous breathing trial is associated
with increased morbidity and mortality. Predicting postextubation distress is therefore a …
