Background And Purpose: Alterations in tryptophan-kynurenine (TRP-KYN) pathway are implicated in major depressive disorder (MDD). α7 nicotinic acetylcholine (α7nACh) receptor regulates the hypothalamic-pituitary-adrenal (HPA) axis. We have shown that deficiency of kynurenine 3-monooxygenase (KMO) induces depression-like behaviour via kynurenic acid (KYNA; α7nACh antagonist).

Background: Anterior cruciate ligament (ACL) reconstruction (ACLR) can be successful in restoring knee stability. However, secondary ACL injury, either through graft failure or contralateral injury, is a known complication and can significantly impact the ability of a patient to return successfully to previous activities.

Purpose: To develop and internally validate an interpretable machine learning model to quantify the risk of graft failure and contralateral ACL injury in a longitudinal cohort treated with ACLR.

Article Synopsis
  • Peri-implantitis is a disease linked to plaque that can cause the loss of dental implants, with smoking worsening the condition and treatment outcomes.
  • The study focused on how nicotine affects inflammation and the growth of bacteria that contribute to peri-implantitis by examining specific markers (AHR, IL-6, IL-22) and through experiments with bacterial suspensions treated with varying nicotine concentrations.
  • Results showed that nicotine not only increases the levels of inflammatory markers but also enhances bacterial growth and biofilm formation, indicating that smoking may worsen peri-implantitis progression.

Co,Ce nanoparticles supported on stacked wire mesh cartridges. Activity and stability in diesel soot combustion.

Chemosphere

August 2024

Instituto de Investigaciones en Catálisis y Petroquímica (INCAPE, UNL - CONICET), Universidad Nacional Del Litoral, Facultad de Ingeniería Química, Santiago Del Estero 2829, 3000, Santa Fe, Argentina. Electronic address:

In this work, CoO nanoparticles were successfully synthesized by precipitating a precursor salt solution in the form of microdroplets generated by a nebulizer, as an efficient, fast and low-cost approach. After drying and calcination, synthesized particles were deposited on stacked wire mesh monoliths by immersing the structures in a suspension containing synthesized CoO particles and commercial ceria nanoparticles as a binder. These structured catalysts were evaluated for the combustion of diesel soot which constitutes a crucial step in the regeneration of catalytic particulate filters (CDPFs).

Research on Thermal Stability and Flammability of Wood Scob-Based Loose-Fill Thermal Insulation Impregnated with Multicomponent Suspensions.

Materials (Basel)

June 2024

Laboratory of Thermal Insulating Materials and Acoustics, Institute of Building Materials, Faculty of Civil Engineering, Vilnius Gediminas Technical University, Linkmenų St. 28, 08217 Vilnius, Lithuania.

Loose-fill thermal composite insulation produced from surface-modified wood scobs has been explored as a potential fire-resistant material for building envelopes. This work involves fire resistance behavior comparisons between four coating systems consisting of liquid glass, liquid glass-tung oil, liquid glass-expandable graphite, and liquid glass-tung oil-expandable graphite. The techniques of thermogravimetric and differential thermogravimetric analyses, gross heat combustion via a calorimetric bomb, cone calorimetry, SEM imaging of char residues, and energy dispersive spectrometry for elemental analysis, as well as propensity to undergo continuous smoldering, were implemented.
