The design of cathode/electrolyte interfaces in high-energy density Li-ion batteries is critical to protect the surface against undesirable oxygen release from the cathodes when batteries are charged to high voltage. However, the involvement of the engineered interface in the cationic and anionic redox reactions associated with (de-)lithiation is often ignored, mostly due to the difficulty to separate these processes from chemical/catalytic reactions at the cathode/electrolyte interface. Here, a new electron energy band diagrams concept is developed that includes the examination of the electrochemical- and ionization- potentials evolution upon batteries cycling.

This high prevalence is attributed to a combination of factors, including a significant incidence of infectious diseases, perinatal complications, and genetic etiologies. Genetic testing is rarely available and is not typically included in the routine diagnostic work-up for individuals with infantile and childhood epilepsy syndromes in these regions.

Food as Medicine refers to integration of food-based nutrition interventions into healthcare to prevent and treat disease. However, there is limited evidence to understand the effectiveness of Food as Medicine.

- Latinx adults face significant challenges from food insecurity and chronic diseases like diabetes, necessitating effective interventions to address these interconnected issues.!
- The ADELANTE trial tests a multi-level intervention combining food deliveries and a lifestyle program to see its impact on blood sugar control (measured by HbA1c) in Latinx adults with type 2 diabetes over six months.!
- The study will assess not only health outcomes but also the broader effects on household members and gather qualitative data to identify barriers and best practices for future interventions in the community.!
altAFplotter: a web app for reliable UPD detection in NGS diagnostics.
BMC Bioinformatics
September 2024
Background: The detection of uniparental disomies (the inheritance of both chromosome homologues from a single parent, UPDs) is not part of most standard or commercial NGS-pipelines in human genetics and thus a common gap in NGS diagnostics. To address this we developed a tool for UPD-detection based on panel or exome data which is easy to use and publicly available.
Results: The app is freely available at https://altafplotter.
