Pioneering a butterfly‐inspired design strategy, this work engineers hybrid composites with hierarchical fibrous architectures to achieve synergistic performance. By translating biological principles into scalable composite architectures, it introduces a novel pathway to lightweight, multifunctional, and cost‐effective materials.

MXene synthesis by etching Ti3AlC2 with tetramethylammonium hydroxide (TMAOH) is shown to be reproducible if the passivation layer on the surface of crystallites is broken by rigorous grinding of the precursor powder. Widely cited as electrochemical, etching of Ti3AlC2 in aqueous NH4Cl/TMAOH (0.2 M) electrolyte is likely to yield MXene mostly due to ...

ABSTRACT Aim To investigate whether incorporation of recombinant human bone morphogenetic protein‐2 (rhBMP‐2) into a volume‐stable collagen matrix (VCMX) enhances horizontal ridge augmentation compared with VCMX alone or guided bone regeneration (GBR). Methods Chronic horizontal ridge defects were created in five canines.

ABSTRACT Rationale Closely related whale species can appear similar yet occupy distinct ecological niches. Sato's beaked whale (Berardius minimus) was only recently recognized as a separate species and was previously grouped with Baird's beaked whale (Berardius bairdii), limiting our understanding of their ecological differences.

Abstract Basking sharks, Cetorhinus maximus (Gunnerus, Brugden [Squalus maximus], Det Kongelige Norske Videnskabers Selskabs Skrifter, 1765, vol. 3, pp. 33–49), feed by gaping their mouths and gill slits, greatly reorienting their cranial skeletons to filter food from water.

The Effect of Using Write‐Zoom for Volume Flow Measurements in Haemodialysis Fistulas
ABSTRACT Introduction Arteriovenous fistulas (AVFs) are crucial for patients undergoing haemodialysis, yet about 25% fail to mature or experience early failure. Ultrasound is key in managing AVFs, with volume flow (Qa) serving as a predictor of maturation.

Intima-media thickness of the descending aorta in patients with bicuspid aortic valve
Objective: A bicuspid aortic valve (BAV) is associated with accelerated aortic valve disease (AVD) and abnormalities in aortic elasticity. We investigated the intima-media thickness of the descending aorta (AoIMT) in patients with AVD with or without an ...

Precursor stoichiometry programs the surface chemistry of carbon dots, directing their self‐assembly into distinct aggregation modes. Aldehyde‐enriched surfaces form ordered, hydrogen‐bonded assemblies that enable bright red solid‐state fluorescence, whereas amine‐rich surfaces promote compact π–π stacked aggregates with broadband visible‐light ...
