Effect of Exposed Facets and Oxidation State of CeO Nanoparticles on CO Adsorption and Desorption.

CeO nanoparticles exhibit potential as solid adsorbents for carbon dioxide (CO) capture and storage (CCS), offering precise control over various facets and enhancing their efficiency. This study investigated the adsorption and desorption behaviors of two types of CeO nanoparticles: cubic CeO with primarily {001} facets and polyhedral CeO with mainly {111} facets. The results showed that despite polyhedral CeO's lower quantity, it demonstrated successful adsorption-desorption cycles in both oxidized and reduced states.

October 7th 2023 mass casualty incident in southern Israel: lessons for emergency preparedness and management.

Background: Mass Casualty Incidents (MCIs) pose significant challenges for healthcare systems. While policies are typically crafted based on past experiences, the lessons learned from each incident play a crucial role in enhancing emergency preparedness. On October 7th, 2023, Israel came under the largest terror attack in its history.

Polyvalvular Dysplasia and Vascular Abnormalities in a Neonate With an Variant.

There is growing appreciation for inherited structural heart diseases and their genetic causes. One causal gene for congenital cardiac and vascular lesions is which encodes a critical protein for cytoskeletal and extracellular matrix development. A newborn infant male, with prenatally diagnosed polyvalvular dysfunction, presented with low cardiac output and postnatally detected aortic arch hypoplasia and coarctation.
