Experimental Studies on the Effect of Expired Amiodarone Drug (EAD) as a Corrosion Inhibitor on Mild Steel in 1 M HCl.

In the present investigation, the corrosion tendency of mild steel under acidic pH was studied by employing unused expired amiodarone (EAD) drug as a potential corrosion inhibitor by adopting the weight loss measurement method. The corrosion inhibition efficiency (IE) of the formed protective film (EAD) on the steel surface was analyzed using potentiodynamic polarization and AC-impedance spectroscopy studies. The surface morphology of the mild steel before and after corrosion (in 1.

Comparisons of heart rate variability responses to head-up tilt with and without abdominal and lower-extremity compression in healthy young individuals: a randomized crossover study.

Abdominal and lower-extremity compression techniques can help reduce orthostatic heart rate increases. However, the effects of body compression on the cardiac autonomic systems, which control heart rate, remain unclear. The primary objective of this study was to compare heart rate variability, a reflection of cardiac autonomic regulation, during a head-up tilt test with and without abdominal and lower-extremity compression in healthy young individuals.

Whole-genome sequence of K1041, a genetically tractable strain representative of the genus .

We present the whole-genome sequence of K1041, a bacterium that was originally identified as a genetically tractable thermophile. The genome consists of a circular chromosome that contains 3,848 genes. The sequence has a total size of 3,755,826 bp with a GC content of 49.

The global prevalence of low back pain in pregnancy: a comprehensive systematic review and meta-analysis.

Background: Back pain during pregnancy is often considered as an unavoidable problem and can reduce the quality of life or disability of pregnant women. The aim of this study is to determine the global prevalence of back pain in pregnancy based on a systematic review and meta-analysis.

Methods: In this study, Researchers systematically searched electronic databases PubMed, Scopus, Web of Science, Embase, ScienceDirect, and Google Scholar search engines for studies until September 2023.

A disposable edoxaban sensor chip using carbon paste electrode grafted with molecularly imprinted polymer.

Although direct oral anticoagulants (DOACs) are generally safe and TDM is not required, blood levels of the drug are important information for response decisions in emergency care. In this study, an attempt was made to develop a disposable sensor chip for the rapid detection of edoxaban in blood, a type of DOAC. Molecularly imprinted polymers with edoxaban tosilate as a template and sodium p-styrene sulfonate as a functional monomer were grafted onto the surface of graphite particles, mixed with silicon oil dissolved in ferrocene to form a paste, and filled onto a substrate made of plastic film.
