Effects of Short Sprint Interval Training Frequency on Physical and Physiological Performance Adaptations in Male Soccer Players.

The study aimed to evaluate the effects of varying frequencies (1 vs. 2 vs. 3) of short sprint interval training (sSIT) on young male soccer players' physical performance and physiological parameters.

Urethroplasty with Pedicled Tunica Vaginalis for the Treatment of Long-segment Anterior Urethral Stricture Caused by Lichen Sclerosus of Glans Penis.

Urethroplasty for the management of long-segment urethral strictures associated with lichen sclerosus presents considerable clinical challenges. Oral mucosal grafts are commonly employed but are vulnerable to posttransplantation infection and recurrent stricture formation. Furthermore, the necessity for anesthesia and oral graft harvesting restricts their application in primary healthcare settings.

Ultrafast Microwave-Assisted Synthesis of Porous NiCo Layered Double Hydroxide Nanospheres for High-Performance Supercapacitors.

Currently, new clean energy storage technology must be effective, affordable, and ecologically friendly so as to meet the diverse and sustainable needs of the energy supply. In this work, NiCo-LDH containing intercalated EG was successfully prepared within 210 s using an ultrafast microwave radiation technique. Subsequently, a series of characterization and systematic electrochemical tests were conducted to analyze the composition, structure, and energy storage mechanism of the NiCo-LDH material.

Ultra-High Cycling Stability of 3D Flower-like Ce(COOH) for Supercapacitor Electrode via a Facile and Scalable Strategy.

An electrode material with high performance, long durability, and low cost for supercapacitors has long been desired in academia and industry. Among all the factors that affect the electrochemical performance and cycling stability of electrode materials, the morphology and intrinsic structure characteristics are the most important. In this study, a novel 3D flower-like Ce(COOH) electrode material was designed by taking advantage of the Ce and -COOH groups and fabricated by a one-pot microwave-assisted method.

NiCo-MOF Nanospheres Created by the Ultra-Fast Microwave Method for Use in High-Performance Supercapacitors.

Metal-organic frameworks-through the use of creative synthetic designs-could produce MOF materials with excellent porosity, stability, particle microstructures, and conductivity, and their inherent characteristics-including their porosity and controllable structure-may result in an immense number of prospects for energy storage. In this paper, a nanosphere-like NiCo-MOF was effectively manufactured via an ultra-fast microwave technique. Additionally, the ideal synthesis conditions of the NiCo-MOF were investigated by adjusting the microwave output power and microwave reaction time.

The positive effect of Ca on cryptomelane-type octahedral molecular sieve (K-OMS-2) catalysts for chlorobenzene combustion.

Herein, K-OMS-2 catalysts with different levels of Ca loading were synthesized to investigate the influence of Ca deposition on the catalytic oxidation of CB. The micromorphology, redox ability, oxygen species, and surface acidity of the prepared catalysts were analyzed via SEM, HR-TEM, H-TPR, O-TPD, Py-IR, and GC-MS. After the Ca addition, CB conversion on the catalyst was achieved at <220 °C and the polychlorinated by-product yield decreased significantly.

Alkali Potassium Induced HCl/CO Selectivity Enhancement and Chlorination Reaction Inhibition for Catalytic Oxidation of Chloroaromatics.

Industrial combustion of chloroaromatics is likely to generate unintentional biphenyls (PCBs), polychlorinated dibenzo- p-dioxins (PCDDs), and polychlorinated dibenzofurans (PCDFs). This process involves a surface-mediated reaction and can be accelerated in the presence of a catalyst. In the past decade, the effect of surface nature of applied catalysts on the conversion of chloroaromatics to PCBs/PCDD/PCDF has been well explored.
