Article Synopsis
- Researchers created new membranes using polyether ether ketone-based polymers with ion-cross-linkable quaternary ammonium and acidic side chains to selectively allow certain cations to pass through.
- They explored three types of acidic groups (sulfonic acid, carboxylic acid, and phenolic hydroxyl) that form ionic links in the membranes, influencing their structure and performance.
- The study found that while cation flux improved with increased acidity, the selectivity varied, with carboxyl group membranes showing the best selectivity for lithium over magnesium, outperforming existing commercial membranes.
Purpose: The purpose of this study was to evaluate conventional acupuncture therapy in the management of clinical outcomes for temporomandibular disorders (TMD) in adults.
Methods: The electronic databases PubMed, EMBASE, Cochrane Central Register of Controlled Trials, and Clinical Trails.gov were searched for reports published until March 31, 2016.
