Large-scale superconductor applications necessitate a superconducting matrix with pinning sites (PSs) that immobilize vortices at elevated temperatures and magnetic fields. While previous works focused on the single addition of nanoparticles, the simultaneous inclusion of different nanoparticles into a superconducting matrix can be an effective way to achieve an improved flux pinning capacity. The purpose of this study is to explore the influence of mixed-nanoparticle pinning, with the co-addition of non-magnetic (BaTiO; BT) and various types of magnetic spinel ferrite (MFeO, abbreviated as MFO, where M = Mn, Co, Cu, Zn, and Ni) nanoparticles, on the superconductivity and flux pinning performances of the high-temperature superconductor YBaCuO (YBCO).

Today, there is a clear consensus on three TNBC molecular subtypes: luminal androgen receptor (LAR), basal-like immune-activated (BLIA), and basal-like immune-suppressed (BLIS). However, the debate about the robustness of other subtypes is still open.

In Tunisia, this neuroendovascular treatment meets a progressive but slow development, slowed down, by the economic component.
Aim: This study aimed to evaluate the global cost of endovascular treatment of cerebral aneurysms and determine the factors influencing the variation of direct medical cost.
Unlabelled: Heterogeneity of the tumor microenvironment (TME) is one of the major causes of treatment resistance in breast cancer. Among TME components, nervous system role in clinical outcome has been underestimated. Identifying neuronal signatures associated with treatment response will help to characterize neuronal influence on tumor progression and identify new treatment targets.

Plant-derived compounds have gained significant attention in the scientific community for their preventative and therapeutic effects on cancer. To evaluate the anticancer potential of phytocompounds for RCC, we compiled a comprehensive and systematic review of the available literature.
