High‐frequency (HF) welding of steel is limited by oxide inclusions that degrade weld quality. This study demonstrates, for the first time, the integration of a nonthermal Ar/H2 dielectric barrier discharge (DBD) plasma jet into HF welding. Local plasma treatment provides effective shielding and in‐situ oxide reduction, resulting in markedly fewer and ...

HPA axis function in alcohol use disorder: A systematic review and meta-analysis
Alcohol use disorder (AUD) is a culturally pervasive and often treatment resistant disorder. Stress is a major trigger for relapse in AUD. Allostasis in response to stress is governed by the hypothalamic-pituitary-adrenal axis (HPA axis).

Modeling the hypothalamus–pituitary–adrenal axis: A review and extension [PDF]
Multiple models of the hypothalamus–pituitary–adrenal (HPA) axis have been developed to characterize the oscillations seen in the hormone concentrations and to examine HPA axis dysfunction.

Assessing Altered Coating Adhesion on Plasma‐Deoxidized Surfaces Under Oxygen‐Free Conditions
This study demonstrates the effectiveness of atmospheric pressure plasma pretreatment in modifying silicon and stainless steel surfaces to improve adhesion. Argon‐hydrogen plasma increases surface roughness and improves adhesion strength, whereas pure argon results in smoother surfaces and structural changes.

Air pollution is associated with elevated HPA-Axis response to stress in anxious adolescent girls
Research suggests that exposure to fine particulate air pollution (PM2.5) increases hypothalamic-pituitary-adrenal (HPA) axis activation in adults; it is unclear, however, whether PM2.5 is associated with HPA-axis functioning in psychosocial contexts ...

The wettability of aluminum droplets (Al) on different copper substrates (Cu), where liquid Al spreads on solid Cu surfaces to form a liquid–solid interface, is studied numerically and experimentally. The experimental and numerical results show good agreement in the fast‐spreading regime.

The hypothalamic-pituitary-adrenal axis in anxiety and panic [PDF]
This review article focuses on the differential activation of the hypothalamic-pituitary-adrenal (HPA) axis in generalized anxiety and panic. The results of experimental studies that assayed adrenocorticotropic hormone, cortisol and prolactin show that ...

Role of glucocorticoid negative feedback in the regulation of HPA axis pulsatility
The hypothalamic–pituitary–adrenal (HPA) axis is the major neuroendocrine axis regulating homeostasis in mammals. Glucocorticoid hormones are rapidly synthesized and secreted from the adrenal gland in response to stress.

Viktoriia Shtefan, Thorgund Nemec, Ute Hempel, Annett Gebert and coworkers demonstrate that anodic treatment of Ti–Cu‐based metallic glass in a nontoxic pyrophosphate electrolyte forms a protective bilayered Ti/Zr‐oxide film enriched with Cu nanocrystals.
