Review of Thermally Activated Twisted Coiled Polymer Actuators: A Materials Science Perspective

Advanced Functional Materials, EarlyView.
Thermally activated twisted and coiled polymer actuators (TCPAs) combine lightweight design, large deformation, and scalable fabrication for soft robotic and wearable applications. This review connects polymer structure, processing history, helix geometry, and thermomechanical characterization to actuator performance, highlighting current challenges in

Systemic inflammatory response and cytokine profile at burn injury in dynamics [PDF]

Саратовский научно-медицинский журнал, 2017
The aim of the article is to study the dynamics of indices of systemic inflammation in correlation with the following factors: the outcome of the disease, disturbances in proinflammatory cytokines rate and vascular endothelial dysfunction markers rate at

Treatment of Children With Scalds by Xenografts: Report From a Swedish Burn Centre [PDF]

, 2016
Scalds are the most common type of burn in children, and one way to treat them is with xenografts with no topical antimicrobials in line with the recommendations of a recent review. However, this treatment has not been examined in detail.

Hypochlorous acid versus normal saline solution for the cleansing of indeterminate-depth burn wounds: a randomized, controlled trial

Burns Open
Hypochlorous acid is an effective agent for wound irrigation, however, evidence from controlled trials involving burn wounds is lacking. This was a randomized, controlled study that compared healing outcomes, for indeterminate-depth burn wounds ...

Effect of broad-spectrum antibiotics on bacterial translocation in burned or septic rats

Chinese Medical Journal, 2019
. Background:. Antibiotics are frequently used to treat critically ill patients, and its use is often accompanied by intestinal dysbiosis that might further lead to bacterial translocation (BT).

On mixture failure rate ordering [PDF]

Mixtures of increasing failure rate distributions (IFR) can decrease at least in some intervals of time. Usually this property can be observed asymptotically as time tends to infinity.

Bio‐Inspired Synthesis of Macroporous Single Crystal Particles as Scattering Agents

Advanced Functional Materials, EarlyView.
A general strategy is presented that delivers unique, single‐crystal microparticles that combine submicron macroporosity and uniform particle shapes. A bioinspired approach is used to occlude three distinct types of additives – polystyrene microspheres, polymer vesicles and amino acids – within calcite single crystals, and subsequent thermal annealing ...

Understanding the shape of the mixture failure rate (with engineering and demographic applications) [PDF]

Mixtures of distributions are usually effectively used for modeling heterogeneity. It is well known that mixtures of DFR distributions are always DFR. On the other hand, mixtures of IFR distributions can decrease, at least in some intervals of time.

Synthesis of AgBiS2 and AgInS2 Based on Formation Energies in Sulfur‐Rich Reducing Flame

Advanced Functional Materials, EarlyView.
High‐surface‐area AgInS2 and AgBiS2 nanoparticles were synthesized via enclosed flame spray pyrolysis by tuning flame conditions and formation energies to guide phase formation. Flame parameters were tuned to suppress oxides and enable pure sulfide phase growth.
