Abstract: A heart rhythm detection method and system by using radar sensor is capable of collecting an original signal using a radar sensor toward at least one subject, and converting the original signal to a two dimensional image information (i.e., spectrogram) using the concept of image vision. Then, the neural network automatically learns which heartbeat frequency should be focused on and which heartbeat frequency should be filtered out in the two dimensional image information through deep learning, so that the heartbeat frequencies can be extracted effectively.

Abstract: The present invention provides a novel compound for effectively preventing nerve damage and protecting nerves, and a preparation method thereof. Besides, the present invention also provides a pharmaceutical composition comprising the novel compound, and a use of the novel compound for preventing nerve damage and protecting nerves.

Abstract: Various embodiments of the present disclosure are directed towards an integrated chip including a dielectric structure sandwiched between a first electrode and a bottom electrode. A passivation layer overlies the second electrode and the dielectric structure. The passivation layer comprises a horizontal surface vertically below a top surface of the passivation layer. The horizontal surface is disposed above a top surface of the dielectric structure.

Abstract: The present disclosure provides a semiconductor device. The semiconductor device includes a first device and a second device disposed adjacent to the first device; a conductive pillar disposed adjacent to the first device or the second device; a molding surrounding the first device, the second device and the conductive pillar; and a redistribution layer (RDL) over the first device, the second device, the molding and the conductive pillar, wherein the RDL electrically connects the first device to the second device and includes an opening penetrating the RDL and exposing a sensing area over the first device.

Abstract: A composition for promoting defecation includes a cell culture of at least one lactic acid bacterial strain which is substantially free of cells. The least one lactic acid bacterial strain is selected from the group consisting of Lactobacillus salivarius subsp. salicinius AP-32, Bifidobacterium animalis subsp. lactis CP-9, and Lactobacillus acidophilus TYCA06, which are respectively deposited at the Bioresource Collection and Research Center (BCRC) under accession numbers BCRC 910437, BCRC 910645 and BCRC 910813. Also disclosed is a method for promoting defecation, including administering to a subject in need thereof an effective amount of the composition.
