Efficient thermal management is crucial for optimizing the performance and longevity of automotive engines, particularly as environmental regulations become more stringent and consumer demand for fuel efficiency increases. This paper investigates the energy and exergy performance of a wavy fin-and-tube radiator employing novel ternary nanofluids (TNFs) for enhanced automotive cooling. A theoretical comparative analysis was performed on four distinct ethylene glycol-water solution-based TNF configurations.

Background: Tumor metastasis is a major threat to cancer patient survival. The organ-specific niche plays a pivotal role in tumor organotropic metastasis. Fibroblasts serve as a vital component of the metastatic microenvironment, but how heterogeneous metastasis-associated fibroblasts (MAFs) promote organotropic metastasis is poorly characterized.

Although platelet bioenergetic dysfunction is evident early in the pathogenesis of diabetic macrovascular complications, the bioenergetic characteristics in type 2 diabetic patients who developed coronary in-stent restenosis (ISR) and their effects on platelet function remain unclear. Here, we performed platelet bioenergetic profiling to characterize the bioenergetic alterations in 28 type 2 diabetic patients with ISR compared with 28 type 2 diabetic patients without ISR (non-ISR) and 28 healthy individuals. Generally, platelets from type 2 diabetic patients with ISR exhibited a specific bioenergetic alteration characterized by high dependency on fatty acid (FA) oxidation, which subsequently induced complex III deficiency, causing decreased mitochondrial respiration, increased mitochondrial oxidant production, and low efficiency of mitochondrial ATP generation.

Assessing blood compatibility is crucial before in vivo procedures and is considered more reliable than many in vitro tests. This study examines the physiochemical properties and blood compatibility of bioactive powders ((0.5-2 wt % carbon nanotube (CNT)/alumina)-20 wt %)) produced through a heterocoagulation colloidal technique followed by ball milling with hydroxyapatite (HAp).
