Sex differences in alcohol-related liver disease, viral hepatitis, metabolic dysfunction-associated steatotic liver disease, and hepatocellular carcinoma [PDF]
Females are more susceptible to alcohol-related liver disease (ALD) owing to increased risk of alcohol dependence; decreased gastric first-pass effect and increased risk of producing hepatotoxic metabolites, higher alcohol bioavailability, and hormonal ...

Background. Alcohol-associated liver disease (ALD) is the leading indication for liver transplantation (LT) in the United States. Alcohol use disorder relapse can lead to graft failure and the need for liver retransplantation (re-LT).

Mobile setup for synchrotron based in situ characterization during thermal and plasma-enhanced atomic layer deposition [PDF]
We report the design of a mobile setup for synchrotron based in situ studies during atomic layer processing. The system was designed to facilitate in situ grazing incidence small angle x-ray scattering (GISAXS), x-ray fluorescence (XRF), and x-ray ...

Targetable Brg1‐CXCL14 axis contributes to alcoholic liver injury by driving neutrophil trafficking
Alcoholic liver disease (ALD) accounts for a large fraction of patients with cirrhosis and hepatocellular carcinoma. In the present study we investigated the involvement of Brahma‐related gene 1 (Brg1) in ALD pathogenesis and implication in ALD ...

Thermal and plasma-enhanced atomic layer deposition of yttrium oxide films and the properties of water wettability [PDF]
The atomic layer deposition (ALD) of yttrium oxide (Y2O3) is investigated using the liquid precursor Y(EtCp)2(iPr-amd) as the yttrium source with thermal (H2O) and plasma-enhanced (H2O plasma and O2 plasma) processes, respectively.

Tunneling spectroscopy of superconducting MoN and NbTiN grown by atomic layer deposition
A tunneling spectroscopy study is presented of superconducting MoN and Nb$_{0.8}$Ti$_{0.2}$N thin films grown by atomic layer deposition (ALD). The films exhibited a superconducting gap of 2meV and 2.4meV respectively with a corresponding critical ...
