Chromium-Doped NiBP Micro-Sphere Electrocatalysts for Green Hydrogen Production under Industrial Operational Conditions.

Wide spread adaptation of green hydrogen can help to mitigate the serious climate issues, increasing global energy demands and the development of advanced electrocatalysts robust under industrial conditions is one of the key technological challenges. Herein, chromium-doped nickel-boride-phosphide (Cr/NiBP) micro sphere (MS) electrocatalyst is demonstrated via a two-step hydrothermal approach along with post-annealing. The Cr/NiBP MS demonstrates low hydrogen evolution reaction and oxygen evaluation reaction over potentials of 78 and 250 mV at 100 mA cm in 1 m KOH, out performing most of the reported catalysts.

Can memantine treat autism? Answers from preclinical and clinical studies.

Autism Spectrum Disorder (ASD) represents a clinical challenge due to its diverse behavioral symptoms and complex neuro-pathophysiology. Finding effective treatments that target the fundamental mechanisms of ASD remains a top priority. This narrative review presents the potential of the NMDA-receptor blocker memantine in managing ASD symptoms.

Hepatic and Pancreatic Cellular Response to Early Life Nutritional Mismatch.

To determine the basis for perinatal nutritional mismatch causing metabolic dysfunction associated steatotic liver disease (MASLD) and diabetes mellitus, we examined adult phenotype, hepatic transcriptome, and pancreatic β-islet function. In prenatal caloric restricted rat with intrauterine growth restriction (IUGR) and postnatal exposure to high fat with fructose (HFhf) or high carbohydrate (RC), we investigated male and female IUGR-Hfhf and IUGR-RC, versus HFhf and CON offspring. Males more than females displayed adiposity, glucose intolerance, insulin resistance, hyperlipidemia, hepatomegaly with hepatic steatosis.

A Rare Case of Wolfram Syndrome Presenting With Tuberculous Meningitis: A Case Report.

Wolfram syndrome is an extremely rare condition composed of a tetrad of diabetes insipidus, diabetes mellitus, optic atrophy, and deafness. When concurrently presenting with another condition, such as tuberculous meningitis, the widespread range of resulting symptoms delays the establishment of diagnosis and treatment, which results in increased patient morbidity.

Impaired Presynaptic Function Contributes Significantly to the Pathology of Glycine Receptor Autoantibodies.

Background And Objectives: Autoantibodies (aAbs) against glycine receptors (GlyRs) are mainly associated with the rare neurologic diseases stiff person syndrome (SPS) and progressive encephalomyelitis with rigidity and myoclonus (PERM). GlyR aAbs are also found in other neurologic diseases such as epilepsy. The aAbs bind to different GlyR α-subunits and, more rarely, also to the GlyR β-subunit.
