Long-term neuromuscular sequelae of critical illness [PDF]

open access: yes, 2018
In this observational study, we analyzed the long-term neuromuscular deficits of survivors of critical illness. Intensive care unit-acquired muscular weakness (ICU-AW) is a very common complication of critical illness.

Impact of Parenteral Nutrition Versus Fasting on Hepatic Bile Acid Production and Transport in a Rabbit Model of Prolonged Critical Illness [PDF]

open access: yes, 1986
Cholestatic liver dysfunction frequently occurs during critical illness. Administration of parenteral nutrition (PN) is thought to aggravate this.

Grain Boundary Space Charge Engineering of Solid Oxide Electrolytes: Model Thin Film Study

open access: yesAdvanced Functional Materials, EarlyView.
This study demonstrates unprecedented control of grain boundary electrical properties in solid electrolytes. Selective diffusion of cations through grain boundaries in thin films enables 12 orders of magnitude variation in ionic resistance, proving that systematic chemical modification of grain boundary electrical properties is feasible.

Nerve excitability changes in critical illness polyneuropathy [PDF]

open access: yes, 2017
Patients in intensive care units frequently suffer muscle weakness and atrophy due to critical illness polyneuropathy (CIP), an axonal neuropathy associated with systemic inflammatory response syndrome and multiple organ failure.

Electrochemical Formation of BiVO4/BiPO4 Photoanodes for Enhanced Selectivity toward H2O2 Generation

open access: yesAdvanced Functional Materials, EarlyView.
In acidic KPi, V dissolves from the BiVO4 lattice, while adsorbed phosphate reacts with the electrode under an external bias, forming a BiPO4 surface layer. This BiPO4 layer exhibits stronger bicarbonate adsorption, redirecting the water oxidation pathway toward two‐electron H2O2 production.

Solvent‐Free Bonding Mechanisms and Microstructure Engineering in Dry Electrode Technology for Lithium‐Ion Batteries

open access: yesAdvanced Functional Materials, EarlyView.
Dry electrode technology revolutionizes battery manufacturing by eliminating toxic solvents and energy‐intensive drying. This work details two promising techniques: dry spray deposition and polymer fibrillation. How their unique solvent‐free bonding mechanisms create uniform microstructures for thicker, denser electrodes, boosting energy density and ...

Intrinsically Soft Printed Electronics for Digitally Augmented Human Sensing and Vision

open access: yesAdvanced Functional Materials, EarlyView.
This work introduces a class of highly functional, multilayer flexible and stretchable circuits capable of digitally augmenting human sensing and vision. Studies in multi‐material soft composite inks yielded a formulation that enables overpass printing, self‐healing, and high‐resolution functionality.
