BackgroundEffects of extreme sleep duration on risk of mortality and cardiovascular outcomes remain controversial. We aimed to quantify the dose‐response relationships of sleep duration with risk of all‐cause mortality, total cardiovascular disease, coronary heart disease, and stroke.Methods and ResultsPubMed and Embase were systematically searched for prospective cohort studies published before December 1, 2016, that examined the associations between sleep duration and at least 1 of the 4 outcomes in generally healthy populations. U‐shaped associations were indicated between sleep duration and risk of all outcomes, with the lowest risk observed for ≈7‐hour sleep duration per day, which was varied little by sex. For all‐cause mortality, when sleep duration was <7 hours per day, the pooled relative risk (RR) was 1.06 (95% CI, 1.04–1.07) per 1‐hour reduction; when sleep duration was >7 hours per day, the pooled RR was 1.13 (95% CI, 1.11–1.15) per 1‐hour increment. For total cardiovascular disease, the pooled RR was 1.06 (95% CI, 1.03–1.08) per 1‐hour reduction and 1.12 (95% CI, 1.08–1.16) per 1‐hour increment of sleep duration. For coronary heart disease, the pooled RR was 1.07 (95% CI, 1.03–1.12) per 1‐hour reduction and 1.05 (95% CI, 1.00–1.10) per 1‐hour increment of sleep duration. For stroke, the pooled RR was 1.05 (95% CI, 1.01–1.09) per 1‐hour reduction and 1.18 (95% CI, 1.14–1.21) per 1‐hour increment of sleep duration.ConclusionsOur findings indicate that both short and long sleep duration is associated with an increased risk of all‐cause mortality and cardiovascular events.

Solution-grown films of CsPbBr nanocrystals imbedded in Cs PbBr are incorporated as the recombination layer in light-emitting diode (LED) structures. The kinetics at high carrier density of pure (extended) CsPbBr and the nanoinclusion composite are measured and analyzed, indicating second-order kinetics in extended and mainly first-order kinetics in the confined CsPbBr , respectively. Analysis of absorption strength of this all-perovskite, all-inorganic imbedded nanocrystal composite relative to pure CsPbBr indicates enhanced oscillator strength consistent with earlier published attribution of the sub-nanosecond exciton radiative lifetime in nanoprecipitates of CsPbBr in melt-grown CsBr host crystals and CsPbBr evaporated films.

Freestanding, flexible/foldable, and wearable bifuctional ultrathin graphene paper for heating and cooling is fabricated as an active material in personal thermal management (PTM). The promising electrical conductivity grants the superior Joule heating for extra warmth of 42 °C using a low supply voltage around 3.2 V. Besides, based on its high out-of-plane thermal conductivity, the graphene paper provides passive cooling via thermal transmission from the human body to the environment within 7 s. The cooling effect of graphene paper is superior compared with that of the normal cotton fiber, and this advantage will become more prominent with the increased thickness difference. The present bifunctional graphene paper possesses high durability against bending cycles over 500 times and wash time over 1500 min, suggesting its great potential in wearable PTM.

Two-dimensional (2D) materials have recently opened a new avenue to flexible thermoelectric materials with enhanced performance because of their unique electronic transport properties. Here, we report a feasible approach to improve the thermoelectric performance of transition-metal dichalcogenides by effectively decorating 2D MoS with Au nanoparticles using in situ growth. The present Au-decorated MoS-assembled heterojunction system shows a certain decoupled phenomenon, that is, the Seebeck coefficient and conductivity increased simultaneously. This is due to the occurrence of p-type doping of the MoS 2H phase and injection energy filtering of dopant-originated carriers around the local band bending at the interface. The composite flexible films can achieve a power factor value of 166.3 μW m K at room temperature, which have great potential for harvesting human body heat.
