A stable zeolite with atomically ordered and interconnected mesopore channel.

Nature

December 2024

Laboratoire Catalyse et Spectrochimie, Normandie University, ENSICAEN, UNICAEN, CNRS, Caen, France.

Zeolites are crystalline microporous materials constructed by corner-sharing tetrahedra (SiO and AlO), with many industrial applications as ion exchangers, adsorbents and heterogeneous catalysts. However, the presence of micropores impedes the use of zeolites in areas dealing with bulky substrates. Introducing extrinsic mesopores, that is, intercrystal/intracrystal mesopores, in zeolites is a solution to overcome the diffusion barrier.

Joint attention effect on irrelevant stimuli resistance in high functional autism and neurotypical adults.

J Behav Ther Exp Psychiatry

March 2025

Department of Neuroscience, Imaging and Clinical Science, University "G. d'Annunzio" Chieti-Pescara, Via Luigi Polacchi, 11 66103 Chieti (CH), Italy.

Background And Objectives: Clinical practice reveals that individuals with autism characterized by the absence of cognitive impairment (High Functioning Autism-HFA) show difficulty in sharing attention with unfamiliar people. We hypothesized that this difficulty could affect cognitive control by selectively impairing stimulus-encoding or response-selection.

Methods: Twenty-one HFA and 23 neurotypical adults were involved in a two-phase study.
