Abstract: A capacitor structure including a substrate, a capacitor, a second dielectric layer, a first conductive layer, and a second conductive layer is provided. The capacitor includes first electrode layers, at least one second electrode layer, and a first dielectric layer. The first electrode layers and the at least one second electrode layer are alternately disposed on the substrate. The first dielectric layer is disposed between the first electrode layer and the second electrode layer. The second dielectric layer has first openings and at least one second opening. The first openings expose the first electrode layers. The second opening exposes the second electrode layer. The first conductive layer is electrically connected to the first electrode layers. The first conductive layer is a single conductive layer disposed on the second dielectric layer and extending into the first openings. The second conductive layer is electrically connected to the second electrode layer.

Abstract: A patient interface including a plenum chamber, a first seal-forming structure for forming a seal around the patient's mouth, and a second seal-forming structure for forming a seal around the patient's nares. The patient interface further includes at least one stopper rib disposed in the cavity of the plenum chamber spaced apart from the first seal-forming structure in a rest position. The first seal-forming structure configured to contact the at least one stopper rib in an operational position. The at least one stopper rib configured to oppose compression of the first seal-forming structure in an anterior direction. The second seal-forming structure is not configured to contact the at least one stopper rib.

Abstract: Provided is a method for treating cancer by administering to a subject in need thereof with a pharmaceutical composition including a benzenesulfonamide derivative in combination with a cancer immunotherapeutic agent such as the immune check point inhibitor (ICI).

Abstract: A multiport USB-PD adaptor including a flyback-converter, a USB controller including a USB-PD subsystem and buck-controller, and multiple buck and bypass-circuits, and methods for operating the same are provided. Generally, the adaptor is operated in a buck-bypass-mode, in which at least one buck-circuit is bypassed and the flyback-converter is operated to generate an input voltage (VIN) to the buck-circuits equal to a requested output voltage (VOUT_C), which is then coupled directly to the associated port. Buck-circuits coupled to other active ports can also be bypassed if the requested VOUT_Cs are the same, or the buck-circuits operated to provide another VOUT_C. If a bypass-circuit unavailable, the adaptor is operated in a variable-buck-input-mode by determining a highest VOUT_C requested on any port and setting VIN to a sum of the highest VOUT_C and an offset voltage. Buck-circuits coupled to active ports are then operated to provide the requested output voltages.
