Elucidating 'Transfer-Lithiation' from Graphite to Si within Composite Anodes during Pre-Lithiation and Regular Charging.

Si-based anodes can increase specific energy and energy density of Li ion batteries. However, the volume-induced material stress and capacity loss necessitates only a partial Si utilization within composite anodes, typically with state-of-the-art graphite, so called Si/Gr composites. In this work, various Si nanowires (SiNWs), a promising Si architecture for these composites, are investigated and modified via pre-lithiation.

Pharmacological inhibition reveals participation of the endocytic compartment in positive feedback IL-6 secretion in human skeletal myotubes.

IL-6 is an important cytokine involved in metabolic, immunological, and cell-fate responses. It is released upon stimulation by skeletal muscle cells through partially characterized mechanisms. In some cell types, IL-6 has been reported to activate a positive feedback loop involving endocytic vesicles, but evidence is mostly based on transcription and signal transduction mechanisms and is very scarce in muscle cells.

Evaluation of Polyphenol Intake in Pregnant Women from South-Eastern Spain and the Effect on Anthropometric Measures at Birth and Gestational Age.

During pregnancy, controlling nutrition is crucial for the health of both mother and foetus. While polyphenols have positive health effects, some studies show harmful outcomes during pregnancy. This study evaluated polyphenol intake in a cohort of mother-child pairs and examined its effects on foetal anthropometric parameters.

Retrospective Study of the Epidemiological-Clinical Characteristics of Burns Treated in a Hospital Emergency Service (2018-2022).

Background: Burns are a common and severe medical emergency requiring immediate specialized care to minimize damage and prevent complications. Burn severity depends on depth, extent, and location, with more complex care needed for burns on critical areas or extensive burns. Nursing is essential in burn management, providing immediate care, adapting treatments, managing pain, preventing infections, and offering emotional support for recovery.
