Exploring the clinical significance of anti-acetylcholine receptor antibody titers, changes, and change rates in Myasthenia Gravis by Lijun Luo, Xinyi Zhu, Chunbei Wen, Yifan Guo, Jie Yang, Dongsheng Wei, Ping Yu, Mei Wan

“…Pearson and Spearman correlation analyses were used to study the relationships between changes in AChR-Ab titers, rates of change, and MG scores.Results(1) At baseline, there was no correlation between AChR-Ab titers and age, duration of illness, gender, MGFA classification, or presence of thymic abnormalities. (2) The trend of decreasing AChR-Ab titers matched the trend of reduced QMGS and ADL scores. (3) Six months into treatment,there was a correlation between AChR-Ab titer changes and changes in ADL scores. (4) Three months into treatment, RR-AChRAb showed a correlation with the rate of change in ADL at the same time point.ConclusionWe found the trend of decreased AChR-Ab titers after standardized treatment that was consistent with reductions in QMGS and ADL scores. …”

Correlations between caregiver competence, burden and health-related quality of life among Chinese family caregivers of elderly adults with disabilities: a cross-sectional study us... by Yan Shi, Shuzhen Niu, Silian Ding, Songqi Wu, Jiajia Ma

“…Caregiver competence was assessed using the Family Caregiver Task Inventory, and caregiver burden was assessed with the Zarit Burden Interview.Results Caregivers of moderately and severely disabled elderly adults showed poorer scores in Physical Component Summary (F=20.463, p<0.05) and Mental Component Summary (F=17.062, p<0.05) compared with caregivers of older adults with mild disabilities. At the same time, those caregivers showed higher scores on the caregiving burden (F=19.533, p<0.05) and caregiving difficulties (F=16.079, p<0.05). …”

A Complementary Low Schottky Barrier Nonvolatile Bidirectional Reconfigurable Field Effect Transistor Based on Dual Metal Silicide S/D Contacts by Liu Xi, Ya Wang, Meile Wu, Lin Qi, Mengmeng Li, Shouqiang Zhang, Xiaoshi Jin

“…It is designed with Source floating gate (SFG) and drain floating gate (DFG) and adopts two kinds of metal silicide contacts to form complementary low Schottky barrier both between the S/D electrodes and the conduction band of silicon and between the S/D electrodes and the valence band of silicon at the same time. Instead of a program gate (PG) of conventional BRFET which needs independent power supply, the SFG and DFG of the proposed CLSB-NBRFET can be programmed by the CG itself. …”

DEKARTIŠKASIS DIEVO ĮRODYMAS: PRIELAIDOS IR INTENCIJOS by Skirmantas Jankauskas

“…An attempt is being made to prove that namely this Proof of the Existence of God serves as the axis for the Meditations of Descartes, though the subsequent philosophy attributed a considerably greater significance to the cogito principle. At the same time, there is also supported the traditional attitude that the most important discovery of Descartes is precisely the cogito principle, which initiates the modern thinking. …”
