Nephrogenic Systemic Fibrosis: A Rare Contemporary Case After a Decade of Declining Incidence
ABSTRACT Nephrogenic systemic fibrosis (NSF) is a rare fibrosing disorder associated with exposure to gadolinium‐based contrast agents in patients with renal impairment. Although its incidence has markedly declined since the restriction of high‐risk linear gadolinium agents, sporadic cases may still occur.

Chemically and Mechanically Recyclable Polyolefins Incorporating Covalent Adaptable Networks
Low‐molecular‐weight polypropylene is converted into a crosslinked polyolefin containing a covalently adaptable network. The semicrystalline material remains melt‐processable and mechanically recyclable. Its thermal and mechanical properties are comparable to commercial polyolefins.
