Combining an internal tension relieving technique with anterior cruciate ligament reconstruction (ACLR) reduces graft failure rate and improves functional outcomes: a systematic re... by Yixin Wen, Wei Huang, Minghui Li, Yong Jiang, Yibo Tong, Hongjun Mei, Junfeng Tan

“…The combined analysis results indicated that, compared to conventional ACLR, ITRT-assisted ACLR showed significant advantages in reducing graft failure rates (RR = 0.44; 95% CI: 0.23, 0.83; P = 0.01), increasing return-to-sport rates (MD = 1.75; 95% CI: 1.05, 2.91; P = 0.03), and improving knee scores (including KOOS score and Tegner activity score) (all P values < 0.05). However, no significant differences were observed between the two approaches in terms of Lysholm knee score, VAS score, IKDC score, and knee joint laxity. …”

Effect of Annealing Process on CH3NH3PbI3-XClX Film Morphology of Planar Heterojunction Perovskite Solar Cells with Optimal Compact TiO2 Layer by Dan Chen, Xiaoping Zou, Hong Yang, Ningning Zhang, Wenbin Jin, Xiao Bai, Ying Yang

“…At the optimal annealing temperature of 100°C, the CH3NH3PbI3-XClX morphology fabricated by multistep slow annealing method has smaller grain boundaries and holes than that prepared by one-step direct annealing method, which results in the reduction of grain boundary recombination and the increase of Voc. With all optimal procedures, a planar fluorine-doped tin oxide (FTO) substrate/compact TiO2/CH3NH3PbI3-XClX/Spiro-MeOTAD/Au cell is prepared for an active area of 0.1 cm2. …”
