Developing cost-effective, efficient, and stable materials for water electrolysis is therefore crucial. In this work, we synthesized a series of highly efficient multifunctional Mn-CoNiO electrocatalysts through an atomic doping strategy for alkaline electrocatalysts.

Background/objectives: Ferroptosis, a type of programmed cell death, is mainly associated with disruptions in iron metabolism, imbalances in the amino acid antioxidant system, and the build-up of lipid peroxides. Triple-negative breast cancer (TNBC) has a dismal prognosis. Since activating ferroptosis can suppress breast cancer cell proliferation, it holds promise as a novel therapeutic target for breast cancer patients.

This study examines systemic inflammation, measured by C-reactive protein (CRP), and fatigue, assessed using the Cystic Fibrosis Questionnaire-Revised (CFQ-R) vitality domain, in individuals initiating elexacaftor/tezacaftor/ivacaftor (ETI) therapy. In a cohort of 61 awCF from St.
