A Comparative Study of Shea Stearin Crystallization in Rapeseed Oil and Octyldodecanol: Effects on Crystallization Kinetics, Polymorphism, and Structural Properties

Journal of the American Oil Chemists' Society, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT This work examines the crystallization, polymorphism, and mechanical properties of the stearin fraction of shea butter (Butyrospermum parkii) blended with two liquid diluents: rapeseed oil and octyldodecanol. Differential scanning calorimetry (DSC), X‐ray diffraction (XRD), texture analysis, and polarized light microscopy were used to assess ...

Machine Learning‐Based Automatic Scratch Performance Quantification on Polymeric Surfaces

Journal of Applied Polymer Science, EarlyView.
The automated scratch performance evaluation framework. ABSTRACT Quantitative scratch resistance characterization constitutes an important step in the performance evaluation of polymeric surfaces. By applying the standardized ASTM and ISO scratch test methodology, the present work discusses an approach to automate scratch detection by applying a U‐Net ...

GaAs Growth on Ge‐Buffered Discontinuous (111)‐Faceted V‐Groove Silicon Substrates

Advanced Physics Research, EarlyView.
This work demonstrates antiphase boundary (APB)‐free GaAs growth on Ge buffers formed on discontinuous (111) V‐groove Si substrates. By tailoring the Ge buffer morphology to form well‐defined facets, APB formation is suppressed. This approach offers alternative solutions to achieving APB‐free III–V integration on CMOS‐compatible on‐axis silicon without

Gout and NLRP3 Inflammasome Biology

Arthritis &Rheumatology, EarlyView.
This review describes the three broad stages of acute inflammation in the context of gout: initiation, leucocyte mobilization, and self‐resolution. A typical case of a gout flare is presented. The role of the NLRP3 inflammasome in acute monosodium urate crystal–induced inflammation is reviewed in detail.

Identifying Predictive Biomarkers of Response in Patients With Rheumatoid Arthritis Treated With Adalimumab Using Machine Learning Analysis of Whole‐Blood Transcriptomics Data

Arthritis &Rheumatology, EarlyView.
Objective Tumornecrosis factor inhibitors (TNFi) have significantly improved rheumatoid arthritis (RA) management, yet variability in patient response remains a substantial challenge, with approximately 40% of patients discontinuing TNFi due to nonresponse or adverse effects.

Antiphospholipid Syndrome: An Antibody‐Mediated Disease With Emerging Therapeutic Opportunities

Arthritis &Rheumatology, EarlyView.
Antiphospholipid syndrome (APS) is an autoimmune thromboinflammatory disease characterized by vascular thrombosis, pregnancy morbidity, and other manifestations driven by antiphospholipid autoantibodies. In this review, we present a clinical case that illustrates some diagnostic and therapeutic challenges in managing severe, relapsing APS ...

Pharmacodynamic Effects of Litifilimab in Lupus in the LILAC Phase II Study: Rapid and Sustained Reductions in Type I Interferon‐Associated Gene Expression and Cytokines

Arthritis &Rheumatology, Accepted Article.
Objective The pharmacodynamic effects of litifilimab on type I interferon (IFN) response and correlations with clinical outcomes were investigated in systemic lupus erythematosus (SLE) and cutaneous lupus erythematosus (CLE). Methods Participants from Part A (SLE) or Part B (CLE with/without SLE) of the randomized phase II LILAC trial who received ...

Prognostic value of lupus anticoagulant and anti‐β2 glycoprotein I antibody in adverse pregnancy outcomes.

Arthritis &Rheumatology, Accepted Article.
Objective International criteria for antiphospholipid syndrome (APS) include lupus anticoagulant (LA), anticardiolipin (aCL) immunoglobulin (Ig) G and IgM, and anti‐β2‐glycoprotein I (β2GPI) IgG and IgM. However, evidence supporting their prognostic value or treatment efficacy in improving live birth rates is limited.

A systematic scoping review of metrics utilized to measure antibiotic consumption in hospital settings

British Journal of Clinical Pharmacology, EarlyView.
Abstract Antimicrobial stewardship (AMS) programs were introduced to promote the judicious use of antimicrobials and to combat antimicrobial resistance. Quantifying antibiotic consumption is an important part of AMS initiatives to achieve these objectives.
