Mesoionic carbenes in low- to high-valent vanadium chemistry by Neururer, Florian R., Lyu, Shenyu, Leitner, Daniel, Baltrun, Marc, Fisher, Katherine R., Kopacka, Holger, Wurst, Klaus, Daumann, Lena J., Munz, Dominik, Hohloch, Stephan

“…We report the synthesis of vanadium(V) oxo complex 1 with a pincer-type dianionic mesoionic carbene (MIC) ligand L1 and the general formula [VOCl(L1)]. A comparison of the structural (SC-XRD), electronic (UV–vis), and electrochemical (cyclic voltammetry) properties of 1 with the benzimidazolinylidene congener 2 (general formula [VOCl(L2)]) shows that the MIC is a stronger donor also for early transition metals with low d-electron population. …”

Does mental fatigue affect performance in racket sports? a systematic review by Ding, Cong, Soh, Kim Geok, Sun, He, Roslan, Samsilah, Cao, Shudian, Zhao, Yue

“…The PICOS framework established the inclusion criteria: (1) healthy racket sports players; (2) induction of mental fatigue in both field and laboratory settings; (3) comparison of mental fatigue interventions with a control group (e.g., watching a movie or reading a magazine); (4) assessment of performance outcomes, including physical performance, skilled performance, and perceptual-cognitive performance; and (5) randomized controlled trials (RCTs), non-randomized controlled trials (non-RCTs), and non-randomized non-controlled trials. …”

Effect of less refined sugar (LRS) vs. refined sugar (RS) on postprandial glycaemic responses, glycaemic profile, and lipid profile, in normal and type 1 diabetic rats: a prelimina... by Zidan, D., Azlan, A., Abas, F., Hamzah, H., Khaza’ai, H., Shafie, S.R., Ebadi, S.

“…This suggested that the consumption of LRS could be a less harmful alternative to RS in normal and diabetic condition, which may encourage both the industry and the public to substitute RS with LRS in food preparation and products. …”

Design and Implementation of Active Antennas for IoT-Based Healthcare Monitoring System by MUSA, UMAR, MOHD SHAH, SHAHARIL, A. MAJID, HUDA, AHMAD MAHADI, ISMAIL, A. RAHIM, MOHAMAD KAMAL, YAHYA, MUHAMMAD SANI, ZAINAL ABIDIN, ZUHAIRIAH

“…By controlling the PIN diode’s ON and OFF state, the active antenna can switch between a single band of 5.8 GHz and a dual-band of 2.4 GHz and 5.8 GHz. At both frequencies, the measured radiation patterns exhibit bidirectional and directional characteristics in the E-plane, whereas an omnidirectional pattern can be observed in the H-plane. …”

Modeling, air balancing and optimal pressure set-point selection for the ventilation system with minimized energy consumption by Jing, Gang, Cai, Wenjian, Zhang, Xin, Cui, Can, Yin, Xiaohong, Xian, Huacai

“…Moreover, through the application of the damper position control method, the ventilation system was well-balanced and eliminated both under-ventilation and over-ventilation. Experimental tests were carried out to validate the performance of the proposed method in comparison with the conventional static pressure reset strategy, data from which were collected to train the proposed model.…”

Investigations into light-matter interaction in photonic random media for imaging applications by Gayathri Radhakrishnan

“…A wide-field imaging microscope developed using this plasmonic random laser produces high-contrast images with sub-micron resolution, devoid of coherent artefacts. A quantitative comparison of fluorescence images shows that the random laser could outperform both conventional lasers and LEDs as they combine the laser-like properties with spatial incoherence. …”

Exchange bias and magnetoresistance effects in Ni50Mn50-yXy (X = In, Sn) alloys by Wang, Baomin

“…Recently, a kind of new ferromagnetic shape memory alloys (FSMAs) has been discovered in Ni50Mn50-y Xy (NiMnX, X = In, Sn, Sb) systems, in which the magnetization in the martensite phase is very low in comparison to that of the austenite phase. This kind of alloys is termed metamagnetic shape memory alloys (MSMAs) to distinguish them from previously discovered FMSAs. …”
