Reduction of Radon Gas in Concrete Using Admixtures and Additives

Nordic Concrete Research, 2018
The second largest cause of lung cancer is related to radon (222Rn) and its progenies in our environment. Building materials, such as concrete, contribute to the production of radon gas through the natural decay of 238U from its constituents. The Swedish

A Hypothalamic Oxytocinergic–Sympathetic Axis Couples Anxiety Dysregulation With Impaired Tendon–Bone Repair

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
RCI is associated with functional suppression of oxytocinergic neurons in the PVN. Reduced PVNOXT neuronal activity contributes to altered sympathetic regulation involving the IML–sympathetic chain pathway, accompanied by changes in norepinephrine signaling at the BTI.

Construction Trade Work Is Associated With Accelerated Decline in Kidney Function

American Journal of Industrial Medicine, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Background Construction workers are exposed to airborne particulates, organic solvents, and metals—agents linked to elevated risk of chronic kidney disease (CKD). Few studies have evaluated whether construction trade work is associated with longitudinal changes in estimated glomerular filtration rate (eGFR), a key indicator of kidney function.

Integrated microanatomy and microstructure of the maxillary tooth plate reveal a reinforced feeding system and tougher diet in Late Triassic Hyperodapedontinae (Rhynchosauria, Archosauromorpha)

The Anatomical Record, EarlyView.
Abstract Hyperodapedontine rhynchosaurs possessed a unique oral apparatus, long interpreted as an adaptation for processing abrasive and resistant plant material. However, the microanatomical and histological evidence supporting this interpretation remains poorly documented.
