Comparative study on corrosion characteristics of conductive concrete in red soil environment.

In order to solve the corrosion problem of grounding materials in highly corrosive red soil environments, conductive concrete was proposed as a new type of grounding material. The corrosion resistance of conductive concrete was tested and compared to select a suitable preparation scheme with excellent corrosion resistance. A series of conductive concrete samples were made using different conductive materials such as graphite, stainless steel fiber (SSF), and ordinary silicate concrete.

Diabetic visceral neuropathy of gastroparesis: Gastric mucosal innervation and clinical significance.

Background And Purpose: The pathogenesis of diabetic gastroparesis due to visceral neuropathy involves multidimensional mechanisms with limited exploration of gastric mucosal innervation. This study aimed to examine quantitatively this topic and its relationship with gastroparesis symptoms and gastric emptying in diabetes.

Methods: We prospectively enrolled 22 patients with type 2 diabetes and gastroparesis symptoms and 25 age- and gender-matched healthy controls for comparison.
