Hierarchical NiCoO@CuS composite electrode with enhanced surface area for high-performance hybrid supercapacitors.

Hierarchical binder-free NiCoO@CuS composite electrodes have been successfully fabricated on a nickel foam surface using a facile hydrothermal method and directly used as a battery-type electrode material for supercapacitor applications. The surface morphological studies reveal that the composite electrode exhibited porous NiCoO nanograss-like structures with CuS nanostructures. The surface area of the composite is significantly enhanced (91.

Symptomatic Progression, Recurrence, and Long-Term Follow-Up of Patients With Intracranial Epidermoid Cysts.

Background And Objectives: Intracranial epidermoid cysts are rare, slow-growing but highly recurrent tumors with incompletely understood symptoms, progression, complications, and outcomes. The aim of the study was to characterize the symptomatology, surgical management, and long-term outcomes of these tumors.

Methods: This single-center retrospective analysis identified patients with pathologically confirmed intracranial epidermoid cysts from 1989 to 2023.

Diagnostic Accuracy of Spectral Doppler Indices and Sonoelastography in Predicting Malignancy in Breast Imaging Reporting and Database System 3 Breast Lesions With Histopathology as the Reference Standard.

Introduction Breast cancer is a significant health concern in India, representing a large portion of all cancers affecting women and ranking as one of the most common cancers overall. Reliable diagnostic tools are essential for accurately predicting malignancy and reducing the need for unnecessary biopsies. A Breast Imaging Reporting and Database System (BI-RADS) 3 designation suggests a low likelihood of cancer, indicating that findings are likely benign.

Chrome-free leather processing based on amine pendant metal-organic frameworks and dialdehyde with enhanced dye affinity.

To overcome the stringent regulations in the usage of chromium salts and dye-rich effluent let out by the tanning industry, a sustainable way of leather processing has been demonstrated utilizing amine pendant metal-organic frameworks (MOF) UiO-66-NH along with glyoxal. It was found that an offer of 8% (w/w) MOF along with 6% (w/w) glyoxal increased the shrinkage temperature of the leathers to 89 ± 2 °C with exhaustion of MOF up to 84.3 ± 1.

Non-invasive Assessment of Liver Fibrosis Using Shear Wave Elastography in Patients With Type 2 Diabetes Mellitus Having Non-alcoholic Fatty Liver Disease.

Background  Type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM) and non-alcoholic fatty liver disease (NAFLD) frequently coexist due to overlapping risk factors such as metabolic syndrome and obesity. T2DM exacerbates the progression of NAFLD, increasing the risk of cirrhosis and hepatocellular carcinoma. Thus, early detection of liver fibrosis is crucial to prevent severe liver disease.
