The discovery of novel quaternary intermetallic compounds RMoSiC (R = Y, Gd) in the R-Mo-Si-C system is reported. Their crystal structure was investigated using single-crystal X-ray diffraction. It is shown that the YMoSiC and GdMoSiC compounds crystallize in the tetragonal space group P4/mbm (Pearson symbol tP12) with unit-cell parameters a = 6.

Article Synopsis
  • * The study used advanced techniques such as proteomics and interactomics on mouse models with varying disease severities to identify networks of proteins and their interactions that illuminate both similarities and differences in SMA presentation.
  • * By integrating data on the SMN protein with these molecular networks, researchers were able to pinpoint critical connections and disruptions that contribute to SMA, offering a new way to analyze monogenic diseases through a systematic approach.

Comprehending the relationship between crystal structures and transport properties is crucial to develop materials with improved electrical and thermal properties for thermoelectric applications. In this article, we report on the complex crystal structure and physical properties of CrSnS, a -type magnetic semiconductor with a low energy band gap and low thermal conductivity. Importantly, we demonstrate that the high level of structural complexity is related to the coexistence of two sublattices: a host lattice, [CrSnS], characterized by a mixed Sn/Cr occupancy of its cationic sites, and a guest lattice characterized by [SnS] chains, containing Sn cations only, closely related to the ones encountered in the orthorhombic SnS compound.

Purpose: In craniofacial surgery, the stable fixation of transposed bone segments is crucial in order to ensure good long-term results. The use of absorbable material in fixation avoids the need for a second surgery, which would otherwise be required to remove osteosynthesis material. The authors of the present manuscript have already demonstrated that absorbable sutures ensure the stable fixation of bone segments in patients up to 24 months of age.

Importance: Carpal tunnel release (CTR) technique may influence the likelihood of revision surgery. Prior studies of revision CTR following endoscopic CTR (ECTR) compared with open CTR (OCTR) have been limited by sample size and duration of follow-up.

Objective: To estimate the incidence of revision CTR following ECTR compared with OCTR in a national cohort.
