Novel emissive liquid crystalline boron C,N‐chelates were prepared by integrating mesogenic units into the boron C,N‐core. Depending on the substituent at the boron, stable SmA or N mesophases were achieved while maintaining intense blue emission with excellent quantum yields (61%–100%).

Increased calcification by erythrophagocytosis in aortic valvular interstitial cells
Abstract Background Calcific aortic valve disease (CAVD) progresses over time to severe aortic stenosis and eventually heart failure. Recent evidence indicates that intraleaflet haemorrhage (ILH) strongly promotes CAVD progression. However, it remains poorly understood how it mechanistically contributes to valvular calcification.

Background Bicuspid aortic valve (BAV) is the most common congenital heart disease in adults but is clinically heterogeneous. We aimed to describe the echocardiographic characteristics of BAV and compare patients with BAV with moderate‐to‐severe aortic ...

ABSTRACT This study innovatively links specific microbial compositions of commercial starter cultures to the evolution of key odorant and taste‐active amino acids, revealing the underlying mechanisms behind distinct flavor profiles. Three microbial starter cultures—Saccharomyces cerevisiae (SC), Scarlet (ST), and Roxaane LC (LC), were added to sausages,

Transcatheter aortic valve replacement (TAVR) has become a widely utilized procedure for treating aortic stenosis (AS). However, TAVR-related complications are rising, with TAVR explants becoming the fastest growing cardiac surgery procedure. We report a

Abstract Background People with neurodevelopmental and mental health conditions have been demonstrated to have elevated rates of sensory processing (SP) difficulties in research and practice but the temporal order of this relationship is unclear. Methods This study sought to investigate whether SP difficulties in infancy predicted mental health at 5 ...

Compound hot‐dry events occurring during the maize growing period are increasing significantly (p < 0.05) with time, with the median values ranging from 93 to 120 days. El Niño Southern Oscillation (ENSO) influences the variability of compound hot‐dry events with high significance (p < 0.05) positive Pearson correlation.

Comparison of the Coating Structure of Silicon‐Based PECVD Coatings With Varying Organic Content
Silicon‐based PECVD coatings transition abruptly from organic SiOCH to oxidic SiOx at ~32 at% silicon, exhibiting threshold behavior in barrier performance. Chemical composition seems to dominate over porosity: SiOx coatings unexpectedly show higher porosity yet superior barrier properties, possibly due to rigid cage‐like molecular structures ...

We sought to determine whether there are differences in transforming growth factor-beta (TGFß) signaling in aneurysms associated with bicuspid (BAV) and unicuspid (UAV) aortic valves versus normal aortic valves.

ABSTRACT Organic‐inorganic hybrid perovskites (OIHPs) with white‐light emission have significant potential in solid‐state lighting and display due to the designable structure and excellent luminescent properties. However, OIHPs are prone to damage during bending due to the brittleness of crystals, which limits their application in the field of flexible
