Chiral Phase Change Nanomaterials

Advanced Functional Materials, EarlyView.
This work demonstrates reversible, non‐volatile phase transitions in chiral Ge2${\rm Ge}_2$Sb2${\rm Sb}_2$Te5${\rm Te}_5$ (GST) nanohelices for high‐speed optical modulation of chirality and dynamic control of the state of polarization (SOP). The chiral nanostructures are fabricated using a highly directional, wafer‐scale physical vapor deposition ...

Intermittent fasting for cardiovascular disease risk factor reduction: A narrative review of current evidence

, 2018
Background: The metabolic syndrome (MetSy), which is defined by the spectrum of obesity, insulin resistance and dyslipidaemia, is recognised as a major contributor to the overall risk of developing cardiovascular disease. Intermittent fasting (IF), which

Dietary switch and intermittent fasting ameliorate the disrupted postprandial short-chain fatty acid response in diet-induced obese miceResearch in context

EBioMedicine
Summary: Background: Intermittent fasting holds promise as a prevention for obesity, but its effects on established obesity remain uncertain. Methods: We examined two intermittent fasting regimens in diet-induced obese mice, either maintained on a ...

Sustainable Electrochemical Synthesis of High‐Quality MXenes: Mechanistic Insights, Applications, Challenges, and Technological Prospects

Advanced Functional Materials, EarlyView.
Electrochemical etching provides an eco‐friendly alternative to hazardous HF methods for MXene production. This approach facilitates the selective isolation of the A‐layer from MAX phases with tunable surface terminations. Controlling voltage, electrolytes, temperature, and duration enables the optimal structural integrity. Nevertheless, existing scale

Sleep during Ramadan intermittent fasting [PDF]

Journal of Sleep Research, 2001
During the month of Ramadan intermittent fasting, Muslims eat exclusively between sunset and sunrise, which may affect nocturnal sleep. The effects of Ramadan on sleep and rectal temperature (Tre) were examined in eight healthy young male subjects who reported at the laboratory on four occasions: (i) baseline 15 days before Ramadan (BL); (ii) on the ...
