Journal of Polymer Science, Volume 64, Issue 2, Page 340-349, 15 January 2026.Polypropylene nanocomposites with untreated and pretreated graphite nanoplatelets (GnP) exhibited distinct reinforcement mechanisms. Untreated GnP enhanced stiffness and thermal stability through stacked structures, while pretreated GnP improved impact strength and flexibility at low temperatures via exfoliated morphologies.

Current Nationwide Landscape of Cardiac Surgery for Children With Trisomy 18 in Japan
American Journal of Medical Genetics Part A, Volume 200, Issue 1, Page 77-83, January 2026.ABSTRACT Despite the increasing number of retrospective cohorts describing successful cardiac surgery for children with trisomy 18, no consensus has been reached among healthcare providers regarding cardiac surgery in Japan. This study provided a benchmark to facilitate consensus building by assessing a nationwide surgical database in Japan. A total of

A One‐Dimensional (1D) Computational Fluid Dynamics Study of Fontan‐Associated Liver Disease (FALD)
International Journal for Numerical Methods in Biomedical Engineering, Volume 42, Issue 1, January 2026.Fontan‐associated liver disease (FALD) is a disorder arising from congestion in the liver. This disease is prominent in patients with hypoplastic left heart syndrome (HLHS). Through perfusion analysis, we find that as FALD progresses, there are increased pressures and decreased flow to certain regions of liver tissue.

Effect of Er:YAG Laser Irradiation on the Flexural Fatigue Strength of a 4YSZ Ceramic
Journal of Biomedical Materials Research Part B: Applied Biomaterials, Volume 114, Issue 1, January 2026.ABSTRACT This study aimed to evaluate the effect of Er:YAG laser surface treatment on the flexural fatigue strength of 4YSZ ceramics, with or without resin cement application. Disk‐shaped zirconia ceramic specimens (Ø = 15 mm, thickness = 1.2 mm of IPS e.max ZirCAD MT BL) were prepared and randomly assigned to 10 groups based on two factors: “surface ...
