Purpose: To elucidate the characteristics of 3 D frame coils and identify the optimal coil for visceral aneurysms.
Material And Methods: Using a vascular model, we compared the postembolization coil distribution and repulsive force of three coils: Guglielmi detachable coil (GDC; stock wire diameter, 0.004 in; primary diameter, 0.015 in), Target XL (0.003, 0.014), and Target XXL (0.003, 0.017). Additionally, the coil area, roundness, and center of gravity were quantitatively compared. The coil repulsive force was measured by compressing the postembolization vessel model with a digital force gauge.
Results: There were no significant differences in the coil area and roundness among the three coil types. Compared with the Target coils, the GDC deployed evenly along the vessel wall, its center of gravity was less displaced, and although it had the lowest embolic density, its repulsive force was greater regardless of the number of coils used.
Conclusions: GDC coils with a larger stock wire diameter and a smaller primary diameter unfolded evenly along the wall and had a greater repulsive force. Coil stiffness contributes to coil stability and shape retention, indicating the possibility of preventing recurrence by selecting a frame coil with a focus on coil stiffness.

Solid supported lipid bilayers (SLBs) serve as an excellent platform for biophysical studies. However, the formation of highly negatively charged SLBs on negatively charged surfaces remains a challenge due to electrostatic repulsion. Here, we study the effects of ionic strength and osmotic stress on the formation of highly negatively charged SLBs on the silica surface.

In this study, blueberry pomace polysaccharide (BPP) gels were constructed using calcium ions (Ca) induction. The effects of different Ca concentrations on the relaxation time, texture, water holding capacity, thermal stability, rheological behaviour and micromorphology of Ca-BPP gels were evaluated. The Ca concentration required for optimum gel performance was 15 mmol/L.

Understanding the interfacial interaction mechanisms between oil and minerals is of vital importance in the applications of petroleum production and environmental protection. In this work, the interactions of dodecane with mica and calcite in aqueous media were investigated by using the drop probe technique based on atomic force microscopy. For the dodecane-mica interactions, the electrical double layer (EDL) repulsion dominated in 10 mM NaCl solution, and a higher pH facilitated the detachment of dodecane.

Stacking interactions are a recurring motif in supramolecular chemistry and biochemistry, where a persistent theme is a preference for parallel-displaced aromatic rings rather than face-to-face π-stacking. This is typically explained in terms of quadrupole-quadrupole interactions between the arene moieties but that interpretation is inconsistent with accurate calculations, which reveal that the quadrupolar picture is qualitatively wrong. At typical π-stacking distances, quadrupolar electrostatics may differ in sign from an exact calculation based on charge densities of the interacting arenes.

Effective potential methods, obtained by applying a quantum correction to a classical pair potential, are widely used for describing the thermophysical properties of fluids with mild nuclear quantum effects. In case of strong nuclear quantum effects, such as for liquid hydrogen and helium, the accuracy of these quantum corrections deteriorates significantly, but at present no simple alternatives are available. In this work, we solve this issue by developing a new, three-parameter corresponding-states principle that remains applicable in the regions of the phase diagram where quantum effects become significant.
