Abstract Background Fibrillins provide a scaffold for elastic fiber formation, which enables lung recoil and aortic compliance. Abnormal fibrillin microfibrils, as in Marfan syndrome, lead to enlarged alveoli, vascular stiffening, and aneurysms. Our earlier studies suggested that fibrillin function depends on O‐glucosylation of its epidermal growth ...

Metal‐Free Halogen‐Engineered Carbon Nanotubes for Highly Efficient Oxygen Reduction Reaction
In work employs density functional theory screening to guide the halogen engineering of metal‐free, Cl‐mediated carbon nanotubes for a highly efficient oxygen reduction reaction (ORR). Cl‐mediation optimally tunes the electronic structure and binding energies of oxygen intermediates, delivering an ORR activity rivaling that of commercial Pt/C, high 4e−

ABSTRACT Water governance is increasingly influenced by a paradox at the nexus of environmental scarcity and food security. Escalating water scarcity crises coincide with geopolitical disruptions that have exposed the fragility of global food supply chains, prompting states to expand domestic food production at the expense of water conservation ...

Abstract Implantable cardioverter defibrillators (ICDs) reliably prevent death due to life‐threatening arrhythmias; this may become less relevant in people with more severe heart failure who are reaching the end of life (EOL). This review aimed to explore the ICD deactivation process and identify ethical issues, especially around the initiation of ...

ABSTRACT This research examines how wrongdoers may use narration to ‘work through’ a transgression committed, towards self‐forgiveness and reconciliation. In Study 1 (N = 30), reflexive thematic analysis was used to identify narrative types observable in wrongdoers’ storying of a recent interpersonal transgression, informing our conceptual framework ...
