On the way to establish the structure-property relationship, we dope tantalum oxide (TaO) particles with REEs to study their effect on the oxide structure and luminescence. TaO is highly perspective in medicine, catalysis, and optics, but its crystal structure is insufficiently studied.

The study aimed to evaluate pulmonary hemodynamic changes after PADN and their association with the extent of PA wall damage in an acute thromboxane A2 (TXA2)-induced pulmonary hypertension (PH) model in swine.
Methods: In this experimental sham-controlled study, 17 normotensive male white Landrace pigs (the mean weight 36.
