| 1 | Fabrication and study of supercapacitor electrodes based on oxygen plasma functionalized carbon nanotube fibers显示文摘Dry-spun Carbon Nanotube(CNT)fibers were surface-modified by atmospheric pressure oxygen plasma functionalization using a well controlled and continuous process.The fibers were characterized by scanning electron microscopy(SEM),Raman spectroscopy,and X-ray Photoelectron Spectroscopy(XPS).It was found from the conducted electrochemical measurements that the functionalized fibers showed a 132.8% increase in specific capacitance compared to non-functionalized fibers.Dye-adsorption test and the obtained Randles-Sevcik plot demonstrated that the oxygen plasma functionalized fibers exhibited increased surface area.It was further established by Brunauer-Emmett-Teller(BET)measurements that the surface area of the CNT fibers was increased from 168.22 m^2/g to 208.01 m^2/g after plasma functionalization.The pore size distribution of the fibers was also altered by this processing.The improved electrochemical data was attributed to enhanced wettability,increased surface area,and the presence of oxygen functional groups,which promoted the capacitance of the fibers.Fiber supercapacitors were fabricated from the oxygen plasma functionalized CNT fiber electrodes using different electrolyte systems.The devices with functionalized electrodes exhibited excellent cyclic stability(93.2% after 4000 cycles),flexibility,bendability,and good energy densities.At 0.5 m A/cm^2,the EMIMBF4 device revealed a specific capacitance,which is 27% and 65%greater than the specific capacitances of devices using EMIMTFSI and H2SO4 electrolytes,respectively.The practiced in this work plasma surface processing can be employed in other applications where fibers,yarns,ribbons,and sheets need to be chemically modified. | Paa Kwasi Adusei Seyram Gbordzoe Sathya Narayan Kanakaraj Yu-Yun Hsieh Noe T.Alvarez Yanbo Fang Kevin Johnson Colin McConnell Vesselin Shanov | 2020 | Journal of Energy Chemistry2020，29，1： | 4 |

| 4 | Integration for coexistence? Implementation of intercultural health care policy in Ghana from the perspective of service users and providers显示文摘OBJECTIVE: In spite of the World Health Organization's recommendations over the past decades,Ghana features pluralistic rather than truly integrated medical system. Policies about the integration of complementary medicine into the national health care delivery system need to account for individuallevel involvement and cultural acceptability of care rendered by health care providers. Studies in Ghana,however, have glossed over the standpoint of the persons of the illness episode about the intercultural health care policy framework. This paper explores the health care users, and providers' experiences and attitudes towards the implementation of intercultural health care policy in Ghana.METHODS: In-depth interviews, augmented with informal conversations, were conducted with 16 health service users, 7 traditional healers and 6 health professionals in the Sekyere South District and Kumasi Metropolis in the Ashanti Region of Ghana. Data were thematically analysed and presented based on the a posteriori inductive reduction approach.RESULTS: Findings reveal a widespread positive attitude to, and support for integrative medical care in Ghana. However, inter-provider communication in a form of cross-referrals and collaborative mechanisms between healers and health professionals seldom occurs and remains unofficially sanctioned. Traditional healers and health care professionals are skeptical about intercultural health care policy mainly due to inadequate political commitment for provider education. The medical practitioners have limited opportunity to undergo training for integrative medical practice. We also find a serious mistrust between the practitioners due to the 'diversity of healing approaches and techniques.' Weak institutional support,lack of training to meet standards of practice, poor registration and regulatory measures as well as negative perception of the integrative medical policy inhibit its implementation in Ghana.CONCLUSION: In order to advance any useful intercultural health care policy in Ghana, the government's total commitment in informed training and provider education,enforcement of regulatoryinstrument and improved community engagement is needed. Evidence-based incorporation of traditional medical therapies into clinical practice will provide safer, faster and more effective health care for the underserved and resource-poor, particularly in the rnral areas. | Razak Mohammed Gyasi Adjoa Afriyie Poku Simon Boateng Padmore Adusei Amoah Alhassan Abdul Mumin Jacob Obodai Williams Agyemang-Duah | 2017 | Journal of Integrative Medicine2017，15，1： | 1 |

| 14 | Trends in prevalence and mortality of gastroschisis and omphalocele in the United States from 2010 to 2018显示文摘Gastroschisis and omphalocele are the two most common congenital defects of the anterior abdominal wall.Exact etiologies remain unclear,but while gastroschisis is associ-ated with young maternal age,maternal smoking,maternal alcohol and illicit drug use during pregnancy omphalocele is frequently associated with genetic disorders and other congenital anomalies[1].The incidence of gastroschisis in the United States(US)has increased with an estimated inci-dence of 4.6 per 10,000 live births(LB)between 2010 and 2014[2].A recent study capturing information on 20%of infants admitted to neonatal intensive care unit(NICU)in the US showed a decrease in gastroschisis hospitalizations while that of omphalocele remained stable[3].However,it lacks generalizability[3].Our aim was to provide updated trends of gastroschisis and omphalocele hospitalizations in the US between 2010 and 2018 using population-based and nationally representative databases. | Parth Bhatt Frank Adusei Poku Jacob Umscheid Marian Ayensu Narendrasinh Parmar Rhythm Vasudeva Keyur Donda Harshit Doshi Fredrick Dapaah-Siakwan | 2022 | World Journal of Pediatrics2022，18，7： | 0 |
| 15 | Exploring willingness-to-pay for the restoration and maintenance of reserved forests in the Greater Accra Region of Ghana显示文摘In recent years, debates on the alarming rate of forest depletion emanating from growth in urban settlement and changed urban land-use patterns have gained prominence across the globe. The present study adopts a demandside management approach to investigate household’s willingness-to-pay for the restoration and maintenance of protected forest reserves in three municipalities in Ghana. Using survey data of 733 households from the Greater Accra Region of Ghana, we model the demand for forest restoration and maintenance, respectively, by means of the contingent valuation technique. As part of the findings, the study shows evidence that a household is willing to pay Gh￠50.99($8.67) and Gh￠31.12($5.29) per annum to restore and maintain the protected forests,respectively. These amounts constitute less than one percent of the average household income per month.Consequently, critical validity tests are conducted to validate the robustness of the results. This study provides willingness-to-pay estimates for forest and forest resources, and its associated determinants. These estimates seek to bridge the information gap and inform policy decisions toward the overarching aim of ensuring sustainable forest management in Ghana. | Anthony Amoah Adusei Jumah Kofi Korle | 2022 | Forest Ecosystems2022，9，4： | 0 |
