High-Purity Ethylene Production from Ethane/Ethylene Mixtures at Ambient Conditions by Ethane-Selective Fluorine-Doped Activated Carbon Adsorbents.

Energy-efficient separation of light alkanes from alkenes is considered as one of the most important separations of the chemical industry today due to the high energy penalty associated with the applied conventional cryogenic technologies. This study introduces fluorine-doped activated carbon adsorbents, where elemental fluorine incorporation into the carbon matrix plays a unique role in achieving high ethane selectivity. This enhanced selectivity arises from specific interactions between surface-doped fluorine atoms and ethane molecules, coupled with porosity modulation.

Efficacy & safety of brolucizumab 6.0 mg versus 3.6 mg in diabetic macular edema.

Background: Management of Diabetic Macular edema (DME) requires repeated injections. Therefore newer Anti-VEGFs like Brolucizumab with longer durability have been introduced. We compared two different dosages of Brolucizumab, 6.

Predictors of liver fibrosis progression in cohort of type 2 diabetes mellitus patients with MASLD.

Aim: To investigate predictors of liver fibrosis progression in patients with type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM) over a minimum follow-up duration of three years.

Methods: Two hundred and thirty-three patients completed the follow-up period and their clinical, laboratory and liver FibroScan data are reported. Patients were categorized into progressors 42 (18.

Metal punch vs. drill for rotator cuff anchor socket creation: cadaveric and clinical comparisons.

Background: Arthroscopic rotator cuff repair has been shown to decrease pain and increase function of certain rotator cuff tears. One potential source of pain is the technique used for bone tunnel creation in the humerus prior to suture anchor placement. This study compared the standard metal punch method to a continuous drilling method for tunnel creation prior to subsequent suture anchor placement.
