ABSTRACT The medical burdens of sickle cell disease (SCD) and transfusion‐dependent β‐thalassemia (TDT) are chronic and cumulative, even in children. Yet the effects expand beyond medications and healthcare visits due to their impacts on school attendance, academic performance, and peer engagement.

ABSTRACT Background Chronic micro‐inflammation in patients with end‐stage renal disease (ESRD) is a significant driver of cardiovascular complications and diminished quality of life. While standard hemodialysis (SHD) effectively manages small‐molecule clearance, its ability to remove medium‐to‐large uremic toxins—the primary catalysts of systemic ...

Investigation on the Gas Jet Flow Performance Confined in Round Pipe
In this study, the round jet flow behavior arose by the confinement was investigated experimentally and numerically. The confinement characteristics based on multi-scale characterizations in the atmospheric gas jet flow, which generated from a circular ...

Enhanced flow boiling heat transfer with three-section sudden expansion microchannels
In this study, a three-section sudden expansion microchannels (TSE-MCs) heat sink was proposed to stabilize the flow boiling and improve the thermal performance of the heat sink exposed to high-heat-flux scenarios. The structural effect of newly designed

Enteropathogenic E. coli (EPEC) infects the human intestinal epithelium, resulting in severe illness and diarrhoea. In this study, we compared the infection of cancer‐derived cell lines with human organoid‐derived models of the small intestine. We observed a delayed in attachment, inflammation and cell death on primary cells, indicating that host ...

The Borax Method of Gold Extraction for Small-Scale Miners
Background. More than ten million small-scale miners (SSM) worldwide use mercury to extract gold, releasing large amounts of the toxic element into the environment. Alternatives to mercury have been suggested over the years to little avail.

Organoids in pediatric cancer research
Organoid technology has revolutionized cancer research, yet its application in pediatric oncology remains limited. Recent advances have enabled the development of pediatric tumor organoids, offering new insights into disease biology, treatment response, and interactions with the tumor microenvironment.
