Single and multiphase inclusions in garnet porphyroblasts from the diamond-bearing pelitic gneisses were studied by means of combined Raman Spectroscopy and Electron Scanning Microscopy (SEM/EDX). They are either randomly distributed or with preferred orientation within the garnet host and their dimensions vary from less than 5 up to 60 microm. In the single-phase inclusions quartz, rutile, kyanite and graphite dominate. Biotite, zircon, apatite, monazite and allanite are also common. Two types of multiphase inclusions were recognized, hydrous silicate (Type I) and silicate-carbonate (Type II) ones. The carbon-bearing multiphase inclusions predominantly consist of Mg-siderite+graphite+CO(2)+muscovite+quartz formed by a high density carboniferous fluid rich in Fe, Mg, Si and less Ca, Mn, Al and K trapped in the growing garnet in a prograde stage of metamorphism at high-pressure (HP) conditions. The carbon-free multiphase inclusions predominantly consist of biotite+quartz+rutile+/-kyanite+muscovite formed through decompression-dehydration/melting reactions of pre-existing phengite. Single and multiphase inclusions are characterized by polygonal to negative crystal shape formed by dissolution-reprecipitation mechanism between the garnet host and the inclusions during the long lasting cooling period (>100 Ma) of the Kimi Complex.

Magnetorheological elastomers (MREs) are soft magnetic composites that achieve tunable changes in stiffness and energy response in the presence of a magnetic field. Rigid particle composite (RC) MREs have been studied for decades for their potential applications to automotive dampers and robotic systems. Recently, magnetic fluid composite (FC) MREs have been developed which utilize magnetic fluids as inclusions to elastomers.

Purpose Of Review: Chronic low back pain (LBP) is a prevalent and debilitating condition affecting millions worldwide. Among emerging interventions, spinal cord stimulation (SCS) has gained attention as a potential alternative for managing chronic LBP, particularly when alternative approaches fail to provide adequate relief.
Recent Findings: This systematic review focuses on both residual pain levels and ability to perform daily tasks after treatment with SCS.
Comparison of Deep Brain Stimulation of the Hippocampus to Thalamic Targets and Responsive Neurostimulation for Adult Intractable Epilepsy: A Systematic Review and Meta-Analysis.

Objective: Stereotactic neuromodulation, such as deep brain stimulation (DBS) and responsive neurostimulation (RNS), have emerged as some of the more promising means for managing drug-resistant epilepsy. This study serves as a comprehensive analysis of DBS of the anterior nucleus of the thalamus (ANT), centromedian nucleus of the thalamus, and hippocampus and RNS for seizure reduction in adult intractable epilepsy.
Methods: Following Preferred Reporting Items for Systematic Reviews and Meta-Analyses guidelines, a systematic review was conducted of PubMed, Cochrane Library, and Embase databases from January 2000 to January 2024 to objectively assess the effectiveness of the various neuromodulation modalities on seizure reduction.
Chemical Composition of Secondary Organic Aerosol Formed from the Oxidation of Semivolatile Isoprene Epoxydiol Isomerization Products.

3-Methylenebutane-1,2,4-triol and 3-methyltetrahydrofuran-2,4-diols, previously designated "C-alkene triols", were recently confirmed as in-particle isomerization products of isoprene-derived β-IEPOX isomers that are formed upon acid-driven uptake and partition back into the gas phase. In chamber experiments, we have systematically explored their gas phase oxidation by hydroxyl radical (OH) as a potential source of secondary organic aerosol (SOA). OH-initiated oxidation of both compounds in the presence of ammonium bisulfate aerosol resulted in substantial aerosol volume growth.
