Method of preparing water purification membranes [PDF]
Allyl amine and chemically related compounds are polymerized as thin films in the presence of a plasma discharge. The monomer compound can be polymerized by itself or in the presence of an additive gas to promote polymerization and act as a carrier.

A validated disease progression model quantified eGFR decline in T2DM patients with and without DN. Cardiovascular comorbidities and poor glycaemic control accelerated decline, while ARBs, statins, and metformin attenuated it. The model supports early, consistent use of these therapies to preserve renal function and guide individualized risk‐based ...
