3D printing, as an advanced and promising strategy for processing electrode for energy storage devices, such as supercapacitors and batteries, has garnered considerable interest in recent decades. The interest in 3D printed electrodes stems from its exceptional performance and manufacturing features, including customized sizes and shapes and the layer-by-layer processing principle, etc., especially integrating with MXene which allows the manufacturing of electrodes from different raw materials and possessing desired electrochemical properties.

Congenital hepatic hemangioma (CHH) is an example of an extrathoracic etiology of PH.
Case Presentation: Herein, we report the case of a newborn with a giant liver hemangioma, who presented with an early onset of PH and was successfully treated with intra-arterial embolization.
Kawasaki disease (KD) is an acute, self-limited inflammatory illness during childhood that may lead to thrombosis in the coronary arteries (CA). The major aims of the present study were to estimate the serum levels of long non-coding RNAs (lncRNAs) and the metabolic profiles of patients with KD. A total of 40 specimens were obtained from pediatric patients (40 specimens before and 40 specimens after treatment) who were diagnosed with KD (n=40).

The etiology remains unknown and there are no specific diagnostic tests. Circular non-coding RNAs are a special class of endogenous RNAs that display some characteristics of an ideal biomarker.

Objective: To investigate the effects of D-galactose (D-gal) on aging of rat marrow mesenchymal stem cells (MSCs) and its mechanism.
Methods: MSCs isolated from young (7 d) SD rats were randomly divided into four groups:control group, 1g/L, 10g/L and 50g/L D-gal treatment groups. In control group MSCs were cultured in DMEM containing 10% FBS for 48 h.
