Deconvoluting XPS Spectra of La-Containing Perovskites from First-Principles.

Perovskite-based oxides are used in electrochemical CO and HO reduction in electrochemical cells due to their compositional versatility, redox properties, and stability. However, limited knowledge exists on the mechanisms driving these processes. Toward this understanding, herein we probe the core level binding energy shifts of water-derived adspecies (H, O, OH, HO) as well as the adsorption of CO on LaCoO and LaNiO and correlate the simulated peaks with experimental temperature-programmed X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy (TPXPS) results.

Granulomatous mastitis, watch and wait is a good option.

Background: Idiopathic granulomatous mastitis (IGM) is a benign and rare chronic inflammatory disease of the breast with unknown etiology. While there is no consensus regarding its post-diagnosis management, there are different treatment alternatives.

Aims: In this study, it was aimed to question the effectiveness of follow-up strategy without administering any treatment.

Preserved wake-dependent cortical excitability dynamics predict cognitive fitness beyond age-related brain alterations.

Age-related cognitive decline arises from alterations in brain structure as well as in sleep-wake regulation. Here, we investigated whether preserved wake-dependent regulation of cortical function could represent a positive factor for cognitive fitness in aging. We quantified cortical excitability dynamics during prolonged wakefulness as a sensitive marker of age-related alteration in sleep-wake regulation in 60 healthy older individuals (50-69 y; 42 women).

LAPAROSCOPIC NISSEN ROSETTI FUNDOPLICATION IN TREATMENT OF GASTROESOPHAGEAL REFLUX DISEASE: EVALUATION OF LONG TERM CLINICAL OUTCOMES AND QUALITY OF LIFE.

The aim of this study is to evaluate outcomes of Nissen-Rossetti fundoplication in-terms of objective measures and quality of life evaluation instruments. For the period in observation, the chronic GERD patients, who had undergone LNRF surgery, were evaluated. The long-term outcome was assessed by subjectively comparing the preoperative and postoperative symptoms and Gastroesophageal reflux-Health related quality of life index.
