Article Synopsis
- - The paper explores using Large Language Models (LLMs) to streamline data wrangling and automate tasks in data discovery and harmonization, crucial for making biomedical data AI-ready by developing Common Data Elements (CDEs).
- - A human-in-the-loop approach was utilized to ensure the accuracy of generated CDEs from various studies and databases, achieving a high accuracy rate where 94.0% of fields required no manual changes, with an interoperability mapping rate of 32.4%.
- - The resulting CDEs are designed to improve dataset compatibility by measuring how well different data sources align with these standards, ultimately enhancing the efficiency and scalability of biomedical research efforts.
Thermoplastic polyurethanes (TPUs) are remarkably versatile polymers due to the wide range of raw materials available for their synthesis, resulting in physicochemical characteristics that can be tailored according to the specific requirements of their final applications. In this study, a renewable bio-based polyol obtained from soybean oil is used for the synthesis of TPU via reactive extrusion, and the influence of the bio-based polyol on the multi-phase structure and properties of the TPU is studied. As raw materials, 4,4'-diphenylmethane (MDI), 1,4-butanediol, a fossil-based polyester polyol, and a bio-based polyol are used.

Methods: PMMA disks containing GO (0.
This study evaluates the hybridization effect of S2-glass/aramid on polyurethane (PU) composites produced by vacuum infusion. Different laminates were produced with similar thickness (around 2.5 mm), using, as reinforcement, only aramid fabrics (five layers, named as K) or only S2-glass fabrics (eight layers, named as G).

The GTR initially had a gelled fraction of 80% and presented a reduction of up to 50% of gel fraction in the most intensive condition (5145 rpm, n). The processing condition at the lowest speed (2564 rpm, n) resulted in greater selectivity in chain scission (~1).
