Prismatic lithium-ion batteries (LIBs) are considered promising electric energy sources in electromobility applications due to their efficient space utilization. However, their sensitivity to external and internal influences and reduced durability lead to inflation risk and potential explosions throughout their lifecycle. These critical processes are strongly influenced by the inner construction of the cell, especially concerning the coating and mechanical fixation.

However, optical networks are vulnerable to several types of security threats, such as single-point failure, wormhole attacks, and Sybil attacks. Since the uptake of e-commerce and e-services has seen an unprecedented surge in recent years, especially during the COVID-19 pandemic, the security of these transactions is essential.

Individual telerehabilitation and telecoaching are viable, effective options for treating these patients. To treat patients individually, medical staff must have detailed knowledge of their physical activity and condition.

- - Vitiligo is the most common skin disorder involving loss of pigmentation, and current treatments aim to stop the immune response and promote skin cell regeneration.
- - This study explored a new delivery system using platelet-rich plasma (PRP) embedded in specially designed fibrous scaffolds to enhance the release of bioactive molecules beneficial for skin cells.
- - Results showed that the centrifugally spun scaffolds released nearly double the bioactive molecules compared to electrospun ones, with a sustained release over 14 days, boosting melanocyte activity and growth as the concentration of these molecules increased.
Studies focused on arbovirus diseases transmitted by invasive species of mosquitoes have become increasingly significant in recent years, due to the fact that these vectors have successfully migrated to Europe and become established in the region. Mosquitoes, represented by more than 3 200 species, occur naturally worldwide, except in Antarctica. They feed on the blood of warm-blooded animals and by this route, they are capable of transmitting dangerous diseases.
