Introduction: On-line haemodiafiltration (OL-HDF) is based on the controlled administration of large volumes of replacement ultrapure dialysate to the extracorporeal blood circuit of dialysis. It is currently the most effective technique for eliminating small and large uraemic toxins. Recent studies have observed a direct association between a decrease in mortality and the received convective volume. The latest Fresenius 5008 (5008 CorDiax) monitor software update enables the automation of the replacement volume without requiring total protein and haematocrit values, with the aim of maximising convection.
Objective: The study’s objective was to evaluate the recent version of the 5008 monitor software, compared to the previous version, on the impact on total convective volume.
Material And Method: We included 63 patients (44 males and 19 females), with a mean age of 65.2 ± 15 years, on OL-HDF. Each patient was analysed in 6 sessions; 3 with the 5008 monitor and 3 with the 5008 CorDiax monitor. The replacement volume, total convective volume and dialysis parameters were determined in each session.
Results: No significant differences were observed in blood, venous or transmembrane pressure, nor was there an increase in the number of alarms or coagulation of lines or dialysers. A significant increase of replacement fluid volume, from 27.2 to 31.2 L/session, was observed using the CorDiax software. Total convective volume increased from 29.5 to 33.3 L/session, representing an effective convective volume increase from 26 % to 29.6 % of total filtered blood.
Conclusion: The 5008 dialysis monitor software update has meant a 13 % increase of total convective volume and a 3.5 % increase of total filtered blood.

The numerical analysis examines the attributes of magnetohydrodynamic natural convection in a closed cavity including a circular hollow. Because mono and hybrid nanofluids have many applications in thermal engineering and manufacturing, hybrid nanofluids are utilized as the substance within the entire domain. The investigation centers on a closed, trapezoidal-shaped hollow with a heated surface ring.

Numerous chemical reactions and most life processes occur in aqueous solutions, where the physical diffusion of small molecules plays a vital role, including solvent water molecules, solute biomolecules, and ions. Conventional methods of measuring diffusion coefficients are often limited by technical complexity, large sample consumption, or significant time cost. Here, we present an optical imaging method to study molecular diffusion by combining stimulated Raman scattering (SRS) microscopy with microfluidics: a "Y"-shaped microfluidic channel forming two laminar flows with a stable concentration gradient across the interface.

Steam injection, especially in a superheated state, increases the rate of heat transfer and improves the quality of the baked products. In this research, different baking methods (forced convention, superheated steam, and superheated steam-assisted) at different temperatures (140°C, 160°C, 180°C) were applied to produce a new formulated rice cake containing acorn flour and inulin. The findings revealed that the level of moisture inside the oven directly influences the volume of the cake.
