Synergistic Toughening of Epoxy Composite with Cellulose Nanofiber and Continuous Pineapple Leaf Fiber as Sustainable Reinforcements

Nanomaterials, 2023
In this work, the effect of cellulose nanofiber (CNF) on the mechanical properties of long pineapple leaf fiber (PALF)-reinforced epoxy composites was investigated. The content of PALF was fixed at 20 wt.% and the CNF content was varied at 1, 3, and 5 wt.

Transcriptional Analysis of Liver Tissue Identifies Distinct Phenotypes of Indeterminate Pediatric Acute Liver Failure

Hepatology Communications, 2021
Many patients with indeterminate pediatric acute liver failure (PALF) have evidence of T‐cell driven immune injury; however, the precise inflammatory pathways are not well defined. We have characterized the hepatic cytokine and transcriptional signatures

Paediatric acute liver failure: A prospective, nationwide, population-based surveillance study in Germany. [PDF]

J Pediatr Gastroenterol Nutr
Abstract Objectives Paediatric acute liver failure (PALF) is a rare but life‐threatening condition, yet comprehensive epidemiological data in Germany are lacking. Our study aimed to systematically analyse incidence, aetiology, and outcome of PALF in Germany.
