AI Article Synopsis
- - MagLev technology allows for quick and non-destructive quality checks on plastic components, making it easier to spot defects in injection-molded parts during production.
- - It can track changes in plastic materials when they are subjected to tough environmental conditions, helping to assess durability and performance over time.
- - The method is also capable of identifying counterfeit plastic materials based on their density, which could enhance material verification processes.
Article Abstract
Magnetic levitation (MagLev) enables rapid and non-destructive quality control of plastic parts. The feasibility of MagLev as a method to: i) rapidly assess injection-molded plastic parts for defects during process optimization, ii) monitor the degradation of plastics after exposure to harsh environmental conditions, and iii) detect counterfeit polymers by density is demonstrated.

Objective: The thoracodorsal artery perforator flap has not been widely used in clinical practice partly due to a lack of imaging evidence. The authors aim to investigate the types of thoracic dorsal artery perforators through angiography and provide our experiences in the utilization of thoracic dorsal artery perforator flaps to repair adjacent wounds.

This research scrutinizes the simultaneous evolution of each layer within a multilayered complex neural network and elucidates the effect of synaptic plasticity on inter-layer dynamics. In the absence of synaptic plasticity, a predominant feedforward effect is observed, resulting in the manifestation of complete synchrony in deep networks, with each layer assuming a chimera state. A significant increase in the number of synchronized neurons is observed as the layers augment, culminating in complete synchronization in the deeper sections.

Zaltoprofen (ZAL) is a non-steroidal anti-inflammatory drug (NSAID) with a short half-life (∼2.8 h) due to extensive first pass metabolism. In this context, 16 different polymeric film forming solutions (PFFS) of ZAL were developed using different grades of Eudragits, Polyvinylpyrrolidones, Kollicoat MAE 100 P and Hydroxypropyl cellulose as film formers, and polyethylene glycol 400 as a plasticizer in equal parts of ethanol and isopropyl alcohol used as solvents.

Background: Cementoplasty has been successfully used for treating fractures in various parts of the human body, although the use in weight-bearing long bones is a subject of controversial debate. Strategies to improve the mechanical properties of polymethylmethacrylate-based bone cement (BC) comprise changing the chemical composition or the application of metal reinforcement strategies. In clinical practice reinforced bone cement is used despite biomechanical basic research regarding this topic being scare.

Misfolding of normal prion protein (PrP) to pathological isoforms (prions) causes prion diseases (PrDs) with clinical manifestations including cognitive decline and mood-related behavioral changes. Cognition and mood are linked to the neurophysiology of the limbic system. Little is known about how the disease affects the synaptic activity in brain parts associated with this system.
