Effectiveness of Resistance Intradialytic Exercise Compared to Aerobic Intradialytic Exercise for Patients With Chronic Kidney Disease: A Randomized Controlled Clinical Trial

Therapeutic Apheresis and Dialysis, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Background Patients with chronic kidney disease undergoing hemodialysis commonly experience reduced physical function, fatigue, poor sleep quality, and impaired health‐related quality of life. Intradialytic exercise has been proposed as a non‐pharmacological strategy to improve these outcomes.

Influence of Acetonitrile on the Electrochemical Behavior of Ionic Liquid-Based Supercapacitors

Batteries
The creation of supercapacitors with superior energy density and power capabilities is critical for advanced energy storage solutions. Ionic liquid electrolytes offer a promising alternative in this respect.

Gut microbiome and aging—A dynamic interplay of microbes, metabolites, and the immune system

FEBS Letters, EarlyView.
Age‐dependent shifts in microbial communities engender shifts in microbial metabolite profiles. These in turn drive shifts in barrier surface permeability of the gut and brain and induce immune activation. When paired with preexisting age‐related chronic inflammation this increases the risk of neuroinflammation and neurodegenerative diseases.

Effect of detraining on bone and muscle tissue in subjects with chronic spinal cord injury after a period of electrically-stimulated cycling: a small cohort study [PDF]

, 2009
Objective: To investigate adaptive changes in bone and muscle parameters in the paralysed limbs after de-training or reduced functional electrical stimulation (FES) induced cycling following high-volume FES-cycling in chronic spinal cord injury (SCI ...

The Impact of Additives on the Main Properties of Phase Change Materials

Energies, 2020
The main drawback of phase change materials (PCMs) is their low thermal conductivity, which limits the possibilities of a wide range of implementations.

Honeycomb‐like hierarchical porous silicon composites with dual protection for ultrastable Li‐ion battery anodes

SmartMat, 2021
Silicon offers a high theoretical specific capacity for anodic lithium storage. However, its applications are hindered by the electrode instability caused by the sharp volume change, and the limited rate performance resulted from the insulating property.

Construction of metal–organic framework-derived Al-doped Na3V2(PO4)3 cathode materials for high-performance rechargeable Na-ion batteries

Energy Materials and Devices, 2023
Na3V2(PO4)3 (NVP) has emerged as one of the most promising cathode materials for sodium-ion batteries (SIBs) owing to its high ionic conductivity and high theoretical energy density.

Salmonella lipopolysaccharide‐containing supported lipid bilayers as platforms to study bacteriophage interactions

FEBS Letters, EarlyView.
We present robust protocols for the preparation of supported lipid bilayers (SLBs) incorporating either Salmonella smooth LPS or outer membrane vesicles (OMVs). We use a combination of quartz crystal microbalance with dissipation (QCM‐D) and fluorescence microscopy to both characterize the SLBs of various compositions and to probe their interactions ...

Cycling and the city: a case study of how gendered, ethnic and class identities can shape healthy transport choices. [PDF]

, 2011
As a form of 'active transport', cycling has been encouraged as a route to improving population health. However, in many high-income countries, despite being widely seen as a 'healthy' choice, few people do cycle for transport.
