Geothermal process equipment and accessories are usually manufactured from low-alloy steels which offer affordability but increase the susceptibility of the materials to corrosion. Applying erosion-corrosion-resistant coatings to these components could represent an economical solution to the problem. In this work, testing of two newly developed laser metal deposited high-entropy alloy (LMD-HEA) coatings-CoCrFeNiMo and AlCoCrFeNi, applied to carbon and stainless steels-was carried out at the Hellisheidi geothermal power plant.

- The study explores the connection between periodontitis (PD) and rheumatoid arthritis (RA), focusing on how periodontal treatment may affect systemic inflammation and antibody levels in 42 healthy patients with periodontal disease.
- Researchers collected subgingival plaque and serum samples before and 90 days after periodontal treatment to measure inflammation markers and antibodies.
- Results showed reduced periodontal inflammation post-treatment, while anti-IgG antibodies significantly decreased; however, other systemic inflammation indicators, including C-reactive protein and interleukin-6, did not show significant reduction.
Objective: This study sought to investigate whether the immediate systemic inflammatory response following full-mouth debridement differs following use of hand compared with ultrasonic instruments.
Methods: Thirty-nine periodontitis patients were randomized to treatment with full-mouth debridement using either hand or ultrasonic instrumentation completed within 24 hr. Serum and periodontal clinical parameters were collected at baseline, day 1, day 7 and day 90 post-treatment.
