Characterization of 1T/2H MoS and Their Carbon Composites for Energy Applications, a Review.

The growing interest in the development of next-generation net zero energy systems has led to the expansion of molybdenum disulfide (MoS) research in this area. This activity has resulted in a wide range of manufacturing/synthesis methods, controllable morphologies, diverse carbonaceous composite structures, a multitude of applicable characterization techniques, and multiple energy applications for MoS. To assess the literature trends, 37,347 MoS research articles from Web of Science were text scanned to classify articles according to energy application research and characterization techniques employed.

Post Splenectomy Outcome in β-Thalassemia.

Objectives: To evaluate changes in annual blood transfusion requirements and complications after splenectomy in patients with β-thalassemia.

Methods: Forty post-splenectomy β-thalassemic patients aged 8-33 y, receiving regular blood transfusions and chelation therapy were included and non transfusion dependant patients were excluded from this retrospective cross-sectional study. Details about their surgery, transfusion requirements, and platelet levels were recorded on a standard proforma.

The downstream financial effect of hepatology.

As a more consultative but less procedurally oriented specialty, Hepatology has been considered a financial liability in some academic centers. However, no actual data exist on the relative contribution of a Hepatology practice. The purpose of this study was to evaluate the direct and indirect (i.
