Fly ash (FA) is a consequence of burning coal and is widely used in construction because of its pozzolanic qualities, which increase the strength and longevity of materials. Graphene oxide (GO) is a functionalized version of graphene with low electrical conductivity, high mechanical strength, and a large surface area. By examining the behavior of fly ash and GO composites at high temperatures, new materials with improved mechanical and functional qualities that are appropriate for a range of industrial uses can be created.

Objectives: The aims of the study are to explore the range and variation in serum estradiol concentration, and to estimate the prevalence of "poor absorption" (women using licensed estradiol doses with subtherapeutic levels), in perimenopausal and postmenopausal women using transdermal estradiol in the real world.
Methods: This is a cross-sectional analysis in a specialist menopause clinic in the UK.
Results: Serum samples were obtained from 1,508 perimenopausal and postmenopausal women.
