Damage-Free Plasma Source for Atomic-Scale Processing.

As atomic-scale etching and deposition processes become necessary for manufacturing logic and memory devices at the sub-5 nm node, the limitations of conventional plasma technology are becoming evident. For atomic-scale processes, precise critical dimension control at the sub-1 nm scale without plasma-induced damage and high selectivity between layers are required. In this paper, a plasma with very low electron temperature is applied for damage-free processing on the atomic scale. In plasmas with an ultralow electron temperature (ULET, Te < 0.5 eV), ion energies are very low, and the ion energy distribution is narrow. The absence of physical damage in ULET plasma is verified by exposing 2D structural material. In the ULET plasma, charging damage and radiation damage are also expected to be suppressed due to the extremely low Te. This ULET plasma source overcomes the limitations of conventional plasma sources and provides insights to achieve damage-free atomic-scale processes.

Structural Modification Effect of Se-doped Porous Carbon for Hydrogen Evolution Coupled Selective Electrooxidation of Ethylene Glycol to Value-added Glycolic Acid.

The ethylene glycol oxidation reaction (EGOR) has attracted attention because ethylene glycol (EG), which exhibits large-scale production and a low market price, can be reformed into valuable glycolic acid (GCA) with the cogeneration of high-purity hydrogen gas during the reaction. In this study, a noble catalyst material of Pt nanoparticles supported on Se-doped porous carbon (Pt/SePC) is prepared and investigated for the selective electrochemical oxidation of EG to GCA. Pt/SePC achieved a maximum EG conversion of 94.6% and GCA selectivity of 84.4% and maintained this high performance with negligible degradation during durability tests. Furthermore, the EGOR required lower overpotential rather than the oxygen evolution reaction, thus the EGOR coupled with the hydrogen evolution reaction can reduce the cell overpotential to 0.60 V, which is much lower than that of water electrolysis (1.58 V). The effect of Se doping is investigated through experimental analyses and density functional theory (DFT) calculations, and they shows that Se modified the binding energy of Pt nanoparticles and the adsorption energy of reactants by lattice deformation and charge density modification. This study provides scientific insights and strategies for electrocatalyst design for the selective oxidation of polyols to value-added chemicals via the cogeneration of hydrogen gas.

Efficacy on symptoms and mortality day vs. night administration of EGFR-TKIs for advanced non-small cell lung cancer.

PURPOSE: This study has a purpose to investigate the side effects of three EGFR-TKIs targeted therapeutic agents (gefitinib, erlotinib, and afatinib) and all-cause mortality in patients with metastatic lung cancer. METHODS: We performed a prospective cohort study. We selected all patients with newly diagnosed metastatic lung cancer between January and November 2019. Main exposure was daytime versus nighttime use of targeted EGFR TKIs. The study outcome was a symptom change using the mobile application, and all-cause mortality between January 2019 and March 2023. RESULTS: Among the 87 study participants, 35 (40%) took their medication at night. Among the 87 study participants, 35 (40%) took their medication at night. At 6 weeks of treatment, acne (1.36; 95% confidence interval [CI] 1.09, 1.64; p for interaction = 0.04) and dry skin (1.35; 95% CI 1.09, 1.61, p for interaction = 0.01) in the day group showed a much increase from baseline compared to the night group. In contrast, the night group reported greater reductions in lung cancer-related symptoms from baseline compared to the day. During follow-up (median 43 months), the night group had a lower risk of all-cause death than the day group, especially in younger patients (adjusted hazard ratio = 0.34; 95% CI 0.13, 0.87). CONCLUSIONS: The group taking EGFR-TKIs at night experienced fewer side effects and had longer overall survival compared to the day group. Clinicians should consider recommending that lung cancer patients take their once-daily oral anticancer drugs in the evening rather than the morning to improve treatment outcomes.

Social support during re-entry period and long-term quality of life in breast cancer survivors: a 10-year longitudinal cohort study.

PURPOSE: This study evaluated the association between social support during the re-entry period and long-term health-related quality of life (HRQoL) in breast cancer survivors using a longitudinal cohort study. METHODS: This is a prospective cohort study with 275 breast cancer survivors who reported HRQoL at 5 and 10 years after diagnosis. Social support for the re-entry period was measured 3 years after diagnosis using the Medical Outcome Study Social Support Survey (MOS-SSS). HRQoL was evaluated using the European Organization for Research and Treatment of Cancer (EORTC) Quality of Life Questionnaire Core 30 (QLQ-C30) and Breast Cancer-Specific Module (BR-23). Multivariable linear regression analysis was performed to evaluate HRQoL at 5 and 10 years after diagnosis by level of social support during the re-entry period. RESULTS: The mean (SD) of social support during re-entry period was 68.5. The low social support (LSS, score < 55) group during the re-entry period had a significantly lower HRQoL (mean difference = - 12.93) compared to moderate or high social support (MHSS, score ≥ 55) group. 5 and 10 years after diagnosis, the LSS group continued to demonstrate lower HRQoL (5 years: - 7.17; 10 years: - 7.85) compared to the MHSS group. The LSS group were more likely to have lower role and social function scores, and higher fatigue, pain, and financial problems compared to the MHSS group at 10 years after diagnosis. CONCLUSIONS: Breast cancer survivors who received lower social support during the re-entry period were more likely to experience poorer HRQoL in the long term than those who did not.

The integrated behavioral model of mental health help seeking (IBM-HS): A health services utilization theory of planned behavior for accessing care.

This article introduces the integrated behavioral model of mental health help seeking (IBM-HS), a theoretical model for understanding the constructs (e.g., systemic, predisposing, and enabling factors; mental health literacy; illness perceptions; perceived need; stigma; shame; perceived benefits, motivation) that influence people's decision making around seeking professional mental health care and their ultimate access to formal treatment. The IBM-HS is a help-seeking-specific adaptation of the empirically supported integrated behavioral model and integrative model, which are themselves evolutions of the theory of planned behavior and theory of reasoned action. The IBM-HS posits that help-seeking determinants (e.g., structural forces; cultural influences; past help-seeking experience; evaluated need; mental health perceptions, knowledge, and skills; social support) influence help-seeking beliefs (i.e., outcome beliefs, experiential beliefs, beliefs about others' expectations, beliefs about others' behavior, logistical beliefs), which in turn determine their respective help-seeking mechanisms (i.e., attitude, perceived norm, personal agency). These mechanisms collectively influence help-seeking intention, which drives prospective help-seeking behavior, subject to the moderating effects of determinants. Finally, prospective behavior has reciprocal feedback loop effects on certain determinants and beliefs. This article describes the need for the IBM-HS, the model's constructs and their interrelations, measurement considerations, and how the model can be used by scholarly and applied users to systematically understand people's intention to seek professional mental health care services and what helps or hinders them from utilizing this care.

Sodium Butyrate Inhibits the Expression of Thymidylate Synthase and Induces Cell Death in Colorectal Cancer Cells.

The most commonly used chemotherapy for colorectal cancer (CRC) is the application of 5-fluorouracil (5-FU). Inhibition of thymidylate synthase (TYMS) expression appears to be a promising strategy to overcome the decreased sensitivity to 5-FU caused by high expression of TYMS, which can be induced by 5-FU treatment. Several compounds have been shown to potentially inhibit the expression of TYMS, but it is unclear whether short-chain fatty acids (SCFAs), which are naturally produced by bacteria in the human intestine, can regulate the expression of TYMS. Sodium butyrate (NaB) is the most widely known SCFA for its beneficial effects. Therefore, we investigated the enhancing effects on inhibition of cell viability and induction of apoptosis after co-treatment of NaB with 5-FU in two CRC cell lines, HCT116 and LoVo. This study suggests that the effect of NaB in improving therapeutic sensitivity to 5-FU in CRC cells may result from a mechanism that strongly inhibits the expression of TYMS. This study also shows that NaB inhibits the migration of CRC cells and can cause cell cycle arrest in the G2/M phase. These results suggest that NaB could be developed as a potential therapeutic adjuvant to improve the therapeutic effect of 5-FU in CRC.

Cycloolivil Isolated from Nardostachys jatamansi Inhibits TNF-α/IFN-γ-Induced Chemokine Production by Blocking NF-κB and JAK/STAT Activation in HaCaT Keratinocytes.

Nardostachys jatamansi is widely used as a traditional medicine in Asian countries. Numerous recent studies have reported the biological activities of its secondary metabolites and extracts. In this study, a total of 14 components were isolated, including cycloolivil and 2-(3'-hydroxy-5'-ethoxyphenyl)-3-hydroxylmethyl-7-methoxy-2,3-dihydrobenzofuran-5-carboxylic acid, which were first discovered in N. jatamansi. The isolated compounds were investigated for their anti-inflammatory effects on HaCaT keratinocytes and their potential to alleviate skin inflammation. The results of the screening revealed that cycloolivil and 4ß-hydroxy-8ß-methoxy-10-methylene-2,9-dioxatricyclo[4.3.1.03,7]decane reduced the production of inflammatory cytokines induced by TNF-α/IFN-γ, such as IL-6, IL-8, and RANTES, in keratinocytes. This study focused on exploring the biological effects of cycloolivil, and the results suggested that cycloolivil inhibits the expression of COX-2 proteins. Further mechanistic evaluations confirmed that the anti-inflammatory effects of cycloolivil were mediated by blockage of the NF-κB and JAK/STAT signaling pathways. These results suggest that cycloolivil isolated from N. jatamansi could be used to treat skin inflammatory diseases.

The association between patient engagement and quality of care interactions among acute care patients with dementia.

Effective staff-patient communication is critical in acute care settings, particularly for patients with dementia. Limited work has examined the impact of quality of staff-patient care interactions on patient engagement. The purpose of this study was to determine whether the quality of staff-patient care interactions were associated with active patient engagement during the interaction after controlling for relevant covariates. The study was a secondary data analysis using baseline data from the Function Focused Care for Acute Care intervention study, with a total sample of 286 patients. Descriptive statistics and a generalized linear mixed model were used. The findings indicated that there was a significant relationship between the quality of care interactions and patient engagement such that receiving positive care interactions resulted in higher odds of active patient engagement. These findings can inform future interventions and training for acute care staff to improve quality of care interactions and patient engagement.

Examining the association of physical activity and mortality among recently hospitalized older adults with dementia.

INTRODUCTION: This study aimed to examine the association between physical activity one month post discharge and mortality over the first-year post discharge among recently hospitalized older adults with dementia. METHODS: For this descriptive sub-study, among 42 participants, we obtained physical activity data via accelerometry at one month post discharge and death status via phone call at 6 months and 1 year post discharge. We performed logistic regression. RESULTS: We found that participants' amount of time spent in physical activity one month post hospital discharge was not statistically significantly associated with mortality within the first-year post hospital discharge (OR=.996, CI=.992,1.000; p=.053). However, we did observe a strong trend. CONCLUSIONS: Given the small sample of participants, this trend is salient and should be examined in a larger sample. The results highlight a specific patient profile, recently hospitalized older adults with dementia, that would greatly benefit from physical activity interventions.

Hierarchically Interpenetrated and Reentrant Microcellular Frameworks for Stretchable Lithium Metal Batteries.

With the rapid development of human-friendly wearable devices, energy storage components are required to have skin-like stretchability or free-form to fit closer and more comfortably to the human body. This study introduces a hierarchically interpenetrated reentrant microcellular structure combined with 2D cellular graphene/MXene/carbon nanotubes (CNTs) and 3D cellular melamine foam. This composite structure works as a stretchable framework of lithium metal composite electrodes to provide stretchability for lithium metal electrodes, which are promising as next-generation energy storage systems. The interpenetrated but independent cellular structures successfully obtain stable structural deformability from the nonconductive and deformable melamine foam, while at the same time, high electrical conductivity, lithiophilicity, and mechanical stability of the graphene/CNT/MXene network serve as a lithium deposition support during the electrodeposition of lithium. The reentrant structure is fabricated by radial compressing the hierarchical cellular structures to take advantage of the structural stretchability of the accordion-like reentrant frameworks. The lithium-deposited composite electrodes exhibit much lower overpotential during Li stripping and plating than lithium metal foil anodes and show stable electrochemical performances under 30% of mechanical strain. The reentrant microcellular electrodes offer great potential for advanced designs of lithium metal electrodes for stretchable batteries with high energy density.

Ecdysone-induced microRNA miR-276a-3p controls developmental growth by targeting the insulin-like receptor in Drosophila.

Animal growth is controlled by a variety of external and internal factors during development. The steroid hormone ecdysone plays a critical role in insect development by regulating the expression of various genes. In this study, we found that fat body-specific expression of miR-276a, an ecdysone-responsive microRNA (miRNA), led to a decrease in the total mass of the larval fat body, resulting in significant growth reduction in Drosophila. Changes in miR-276a expression also affected the proliferation of Drosophila S2 cells. Furthermore, we found that the insulin-like receptor (InR) is a biologically relevant target gene regulated by miR-276a-3p. In addition, we found that miR-276a-3p is upregulated by the canonical ecdysone signalling pathway involving the ecdysone receptor and broad complex. A reduction in cell proliferation caused by ecdysone was compromised by blocking miR-276a-3p activity. Thus, our results suggest that miR-276a-3p is involved in ecdysone-mediated growth reduction by controlling InR expression in the insulin signalling pathway.

The association of physical activity and behavioral and psychological symptoms among a sample of hospitalized older adults living with dementia.

OBJECTIVES: The aims of this study were to: (1) describe the prevalence of behavioral and psychological symptoms of dementia in hospitalized older adults living with dementia and (2) examine the association of physical activity and behavioral and psychological symptoms of dementia among hospitalized older adults living with dementia, after controlling for covariates. METHODS: Physical activity was measured using the Physical Activity Survey and behavioral and psychological symptoms of dementia were measured using the Neuropsychiatric Inventory. Descriptive analysis and multiple linear regressions were run using baseline data on 294 older adults with dementia hospitalized on general medical units from an ongoing study entitled Function Focused Care for Acute Care Using the Evidence Integration Triangle. RESULTS: Participants performed an average of 7.92 (SD = 4.49) of 34 possible activities "in the last 24 h" prior to the Physical Activity Survey administration. A total of 132 participants (45.5%) had at least one behavioral and psychological symptom of dementia. We found that physical activity was not associated with behavioral and psychological symptoms of dementia (b = 0.01; p = 0.56), after controlling for covariates. CONCLUSIONS: Although this study found no evidence of an association between physical activity and behavioral and psychological symptoms of dementia, evidence of physical activity did not exacerbate these behaviors. Thus, given the benefits of physical activity, it is important to continue to encourage patients living with dementia to engage in activity.

Factors Associated With Physical Activity in Hospitalized Patients With Dementia.

Older adults continue to spend little time engaged in physical activity when hospitalized. The purpose of this study was to (a) describe activity among hospitalized older adults with dementia and (b) identify the association between specific factors (gender, ambulation independence, comorbidities, race, and hospital setting) and their physical activity. This descriptive study utilized baseline data on the first 79 participants from the Function Focused Care for Acute Care using the Evidence Integration Triangle. Multiple linear regression models were run using accelerometry data from the first full day of hospitalization. The participants spent an average of 83.7% of their time being sedentary. Male gender, ambulation independence, and hospital setting (the hospital in which the patient was admitted) were associated with greater activity. This study reports on the limited time spent in activity for older adults with dementia when hospitalized and highlights patient profiles that are particularly vulnerable to sedentary behavior in the hospital setting.

Anti-Inflammatory Activity of 1,6,7-Trihydroxy-2-(1,1-dimethyl-2-propenyl)-3-methoxyxanthone Isolated from Cudrania tricuspidata via NF-κB, MAPK, and HO-1 Signaling Pathways in Lipopolysaccharide-Stimulated RAW 264.7 and BV2 Cells.

Neuroinflammation activated by microglia affects inflammatory pain development. This study aimed to explore the anti-inflammatory properties and mechanisms of 1,6,7-trihydroxy-2-(1,1-dimethyl-2-propenyl)-3-methoxyxanthone (THMX) from Cudrania tricuspidata in microglia activation-mediated inflammatory pain. In RAW 264.7 and BV2 cells, THMX has been shown to reduce lipopolysaccharide (LPS)-induced inducible nitric oxide synthase (iNOS), cyclooxygenase-2 (COX-2), and pro-inflammatory mediators and cytokines, including nitric oxide (NO), prostaglandin (PG) E2, interleukin (IL)-6, and tumor necrosis factor alpha (TNF-α). THMX also decreased LPS-induced phosphorylation of mitogen-activated protein kinase (MAPK) and the activation of p65 nuclear factor kappa B (NF-κB). Interestingly, THMX also activated heme oxygenase (HO)-1 expression. These findings suggest that THMX is a promising biologically active compound against inflammation through preventing MAPKs and NF-ĸB and activating HO-1 signaling pathways.

Jujuboside B post-treatment attenuates PM2.5-induced lung injury in mice.

Fine particulate matter (PM2.5) is an air pollutant that causes severe lung injury. We investigated the effects of Jujuboside B (JB), a component of Zizyphi Spinosi Semen, on lung toxicity caused by PM2.5, and we identified the mechanism of its protective effect. Lung injury in an animal model was induced by intratracheal administration of a PM2.5 suspension. After 2 days of PM2.5 pretreatment, mice were administered JB via the tail vein three times over a 2-day period. JB significantly reduced the histological lung damage as well as the lung wet/dry weight ratio. JB also considerably reduced PM2.5-induced autophagy dysfunction, apoptosis, inflammatory cytokine levels, and the number of PM2.5-induced lymphocytes in the bronchial alveolar fluid. We conclude that by regulating TLR2, 4-MyD88, and mTOR-autophagy pathways, JB exerts a protective effect on lung injury. Thus, JB can be used as a potential therapeutic agent for PM2.5-induced lung damage.

Changes in working status after cancer diagnosis and socio-demographic, clinical, work-related, and psychological factors associated with it.

BACKGROUND: While many studies investigated changes in working status in cancer survivors, most studies have been performed in survivors of breast cancer and few studies evaluated factors associated with changes in the working status of cancer survivors comprehensively. We aimed to evaluate the changes in the working status of cancer survivors after diagnosis and socio-demographic, clinical, work-related and psychological factors associated with it. METHODS: We conducted a cross-sectional survey of adult patients with cancer who were working at the time of diagnosis. A trained interviewer inquired about participants' current working status, including leave of absence, discontinuing, continuing, and changing work. Sociodemographic, clinical, work-related and psychological factors were measured. Multinomial logistic regression was used to identify factors associated with changes in the working status. RESULTS: Among the 730 patients, 29%, 18% and 6% were currently on a discontinued working, leave of absence and had changed jobs, respectively. Patients who discontinued working after cancer diagnosis were more likely to be female, have ≥ $3,000 of monthly family income, not be the principal wage earners for their families and be blue-collar workers. In clinical characteristics, advanced-stage cancer and experienced cancer recurrence was associated with leave of absence and discontinued working. In work-related and psychological factors, stress due to insufficient job control (relative risk ratio [RRR] = 2.26), interpersonal conflict (RRR = 1.86), job insecurity (RRR = 2.63), organizational system (RRR = 3.49), and lack of reward (RRR = 11.76), and less meaning to work were more likely to discontinue working after a cancer diagnosis. CONCLUSION: Occupational health care professionals and other stakeholders need to openly communicate with patients with cancer about potential barriers during the return-to-work trajectory.

Effect of mind and body education on quality of life among young breast cancer patients: a randomized controlled trial.

PURPOSE: This study aim was to evaluate efficacy of the combination with cosmetic and psychosocial education program on body image, sexual function, and emotional function among young-onset breast cancer (YBC). METHODS: An unblended, randomized, controlled trial design was conducted in patients newly diagnosed with stage I-III breast cancer from 2014 to 2015. The intervention group received a structured education program including appearance management and mind control for 4 weeks. The outcome of this study shows effect on body image and sexual functioning and a distress due to altered appearance and anxiety after the intervention and 6 months after intervention. RESULTS: Among 228 eligible patients, 109 (47.8%) agreed to participate in the present study and were randomized to intervention (n = 54) or control (n = 55) groups. After intervention, the intervention group reported significantly better body image compared to the control group (mean score of 75.0 vs. 59.3, respectively; P < 0.01). The intervention group also reported significantly lower levels of distress due to altered appearance and higher levels of sexual functioning compared to the control group after the intervention. The effects were maintained even 6 months after intervention. CONCLUSION(S): Body image intervention for YBC had effect on improving body image and sexual functioning and a reduction in distress due to altered appearance and anxiety. Trial registration number and date of registration: The study was registered at the Clinical Research Information Service (no. KCT0001191, https://cris.nih.go.kr/cris ) on 23 July 2014.

Impact of objective financial burden and subjective financial distress on spiritual well-being and quality of life among working-age cancer survivors.

PURPOSE: To assess objective financial burden (OFB) and subjective financial distress (SFD) amikong working-age cancer survivors and evaluate their association with spiritual well-being and health-related quality of life (HRQoL). METHODS: This is a multicenter cross-sectional survey of cancer survivors working at diagnosis between 2017 and 2018. OFB was defined as patients with high medical payments for individuals/households, debt due to cancer care costs, or bankruptcy. SFD was measured using a questionnaire. Fear of cancer recurrence (FCR), spiritual well-being, and HRQoL were also assessed. RESULTS: Among 727 participants, 31% reported that they experienced financial toxicity, and 12% and 26% had OFB and SFD, respectively. The No-OFB-SFD, OFB-No-SFD, and OFB-SFD groups were 4.90, 1.82, and 7.81 times more likely to experience uncertainty than the No-OFB-No-SFD group. Furthermore, the No-OFB-SFD, OFB-No-SFD, and OFB-SFD groups were 1.92, 1.35, and 2.53 times more likely to report lost purpose of life, respectively. Overall QoL and health status in the No-OFB-No-SFD, No-OFB-SFD, OFB-No-SFD, and OFB-SFD groups were 63.1, 42.9, 57.0, and 41.2, respectively. Survivors who had SFD regardless of OFB had lower HRQoL and functioning, and higher symptoms than those of the survivors without SFD. CONCLUSION: Financial toxicity was associated with FCR, uncertainty, loss of purpose, and loss of hope among working-age cancer survivors, even in a universal care setting. It is associated with FCR, uncertainty, loss of purpose, and loss of hope. It is necessary to inform survivors of the financial implications of cancer care to allow them to prepare financially as needed.

The Moderating Role of Sleep Quality on the Association between Neuroticism and Frontal Executive Function in Older Adults.

OBJECTIVE/BACKGROUND: Personality traits are regarded as risk factors for cognitive impairment in older adults, while sleep disturbance and physical inactivity are also considered as modifiable risk factors. Therefore, it could be beneficial to investigate the effects of those modifiable risk factors on the relationship between personality traits and cognitive functions, to prepare appropriate strategies for mitigating cognitive impairment. PARTICIPANTS: A total of 155 cognitively unimpaired older adults were included. METHODS: All participants underwent cognitive function tests using the Seoul Neuropsychological Screening Battery and examinations for personality traits using the Big Five Inventory. Individual physical activity and sleep quality were assessed using the International Physical Activity Questionnaire and Pittsburgh Sleep Quality Index, respectively. A hierarchical linear multiple regression analysis was performed to demonstrate the direct association between personality traits and cognitive functions, and the multiple moderator analysis was used to analyze the moderating effects of lifestyle factors on this association. RESULTS: Among the five personality traits, only neuroticism was negatively associated with the frontal executive and visuospatial functions after controlling age, sex, and years of education. Interestingly, the negative relationship between neuroticism and frontal executive function was alleviated in older adults with higher sleep quality. CONCLUSIONS: Our findings demonstrated that higher sleep quality has significant moderating effects on the negative association between neuroticism and frontal executive functions in older adults, which suggests intervention for improving sleep quality such as cognitive behavioral therapy can be considered in older adults who have personality traits associated with a high risk of cognitive impairment.

SMaTE: A Segment-Level Feature Mixing and Temporal Encoding Framework for Facial Expression Recognition.

Despite advanced machine learning methods, the implementation of emotion recognition systems based on real-world video content remains challenging. Videos may contain data such as images, audio, and text. However, the application of multimodal models using two or more types of data to real-world video media (CCTV, illegally filmed content, etc.) lacking sound or subtitles is difficult. Although facial expressions in image sequences can be utilized in emotion recognition, the diverse identities of individuals in real-world content limits computational models of relationships between facial expressions. This study proposed a transformation model which employed a video vision transformer to focus on facial expression sequences in videos. It effectively understood and extracted facial expression information from the identities of individuals, instead of fusing multimodal models. The design entailed capture of higher-quality facial expression information through mixed-token embedding facial expression sequences augmented via various methods into a single data representation, and comprised two modules: spatial and temporal encoders. Further, temporal position embedding, focusing on relationships between video frames, was proposed and subsequently applied to the temporal encoder module. The performance of the proposed algorithm was compared with that of conventional methods on two emotion recognition datasets of video content, with results demonstrating its superiority.
