Evaporation-driven instability of the precorneal tear film [PDF]
, 2018 Tear-film instability is widely believed to be a signature of eye health. When an interblink is prolonged, randomly distributed ruptures occur in the tear film. "Black spots" and/or "black streaks" appear in 15 to 40 s for normal individuals.

FEBS Open Bio, EarlyView.Biophysical characterisation shows that NanX, a membrane transport protein from the major facilitator superfamily (MFS), forms both monomers and dimers after purification. AlphaFold modelling and substrate docking provide information on residues likely involved in substrate recognition for NanX and another MFS member, NanT.

Annals of Clinical and Translational Neurology, EarlyView.ABSTRACT Objective Facioscapulohumeral muscular dystrophy (FSHD) is one of the most debilitating and common muscular dystrophies. Despite its severity, no approved therapy exists for FSHD patients. However, several therapeutic candidates are currently under development, and some have recently entered clinical trials, marking the need for reliable ...

Impact of MgO Additions on the Oxidation Resistance and Compression Behavior of Vanadium Alloys
Advanced Engineering Materials, EarlyView.An increase in oxidation resistance at 600 °C is achieved for alloys containing more than 2.5 wt.% MgO. It has been established that, along with V2O5, MgO6V2, and Mg2O7V2 are formed, which are presumed to enhance oxidative stability. Furthermore, the possible transformation of Mg‐vanadates through reaction with CO2, which presumably occurs in this ...

A Prospective Analytical Study to Study the Characteristics of Tear Film in Patients of Rheumatoid Arthritis before and after Immunosuppressant Therapy [PDF]
Journal of Medical AcademicsBackground: Rheumatoid arthritis (RA), a systemic autoimmune disorder, frequently presents with ocular manifestations, notably dry eye disease (DED), due to immune-mediated damage to the lacrimal and meibomian glands.

Advanced Engineering Materials, EarlyView.HEA interlayers offer a versatile route for joining high‐performance structural materials. Their compositional and structural design regulates interfacial reactions, suppresses brittle IMCs, and improves metallurgical bonding. Sandwich interlayers further integrate defect healing with precipitation strengthening, enabling improved strength–ductility ...
