Methods of determination in the histological sections of the volumetric fraction of the tissue components, characterized by low content (less than 1%), uneven distribution and wide size variation are described. The measuring of the volumetric part of such a structure is carried out by two stages: in the first stage the true area of the whole section is estimated under the low magnification; in the second stage the same is made for the true area of the structure investigated. Then the volumetric density of the component in question is determined by the ratio of the area of investigated structure and that of the whole section. By this method it is identified that the normal volumetric part of the insular apparatus of the rat pancreas is on the average 0.46% in the duodenal part and 0.57% in the spleen part.

All-solid-state batteries (ASSBs) are pursued due to their potential for better safety and high energy density. However, the energy density of the cathode for ASSBs does not seem to be satisfactory due to the low utilization of active materials (AMs) at high loading. With small amount of solid electrolyte (SE) powder in the cathode, poor electrochemical performance is often observed due to contact loss and non-homogeneous distribution of AMs and SEs, leading to high tortuosity and limitation of lithium and electron transport pathways.

Prediction of hip fracture by high-resolution peripheral quantitative computed tomography in older Swedish women.

J Bone Miner Res

Sahlgrenska Osteoporosis Centre, Department of Internal Medicine and Clinical Nutrition, Institute of Medicine, University of Gothenburg, Gothenburg, Sweden.

The socioeconomic burden of hip fractures, the most severe osteoporotic fracture outcome, is increasing and the current clinical risk assessment lacks sensitivity. This study aimed to develop a method for improved prediction of hip fracture by incorporating measurements of bone microstructure and composition derived from high-resolution peripheral quantitative computed tomography (HR-pQCT). In a prospective cohort study of 3028 community-dwelling women aged 75 to 80, all participants answered questionnaires and underwent baseline examinations of anthropometrics and bone by dual x-ray absorptiometry (DXA) and HR-pQCT.

HIV-related mortality has fallen due to scale-up of antiretroviral therapy (ART), so more women living with HIV (WLH) now live to reach menopause. Menopausal estrogen loss causes bone loss, as do HIV and certain ART regimens. However, quantitative bone data from WLH are few in Africa.

Size Engineering of TiCT Nanosheets for Enhanced Supercapacitance Performance.

Molecules

January 2025

Key Laboratory for Photonic and Electronic Bandgap Materials, Ministry of Education, School of Physics and Electronic Engineering, Harbin Normal University, Harbin 150025, China.

In this research, we synthesized a series of TiCT nanosheets with varying lateral dimensions and conducted a thorough investigation into the profound relationship between the electrochemical performance of TiCT materials and their lateral sizes. This study innovatively incorporates a clever combination of small-sized and large-sized TiCT nanosheets in the electrode preparation process. This strategy yields excellent results at low scan rates, with the fabricated electrode achieving a high volumetric capacitance of approximately 658 F/g.
