This paper investigates the impact of treatment with chemical solutions of varying pH values on the micro-macroscopic damage in coal samples under load, employing a combination of Small Angle X-ray Scattering (SAXS) experiments and uniaxial compression tests. The experimental results show that soaking coal samples in NaOH, HCl, and distilled water for 7 days leads to reductions in uniaxial compressive strength by 39.19%, 47.

Objective: Despite the well-established increased risk of cardiovascular mortality in individuals with bipolar disorder (BD), prevention and treatment of cardiovascular risk factors and diseases have been largely overlooked in this population. This manuscript reviews the pathophysiological basis of the connection between BD and cardiovascular diseases, highlighting their shared mechanisms, reciprocal interactions, and relevant prevention and treatment strategies.
Methods: For this narrative review, a search was carried out on PubMed using the keywords bipolar disorder, cardiovascular diseases, and cardiovascular risk factors.

A meta-genome-wide association study across eight psychiatric disorders has highlighted the genetic architecture of pleiotropy in major psychiatric disorders. However, mechanisms underlying pleiotropic effects of the associated variants remain to be explored. We conducted a massively parallel reporter assay to decode the regulatory logic of variants with pleiotropic and disorder-specific effects.

Background: Conventional medical management, while essential, cannot address all multifaceted consequences of Parkinson's disease (PD). This pilot study explores the potential of a co-designed creative arts therapy on health-related quality of life, well-being, and pertinent non-motor symptoms.
Methods: We conducted an exploratory pilot study with a pre-post design using validated questionnaires.
