Experimental study on thermal expansion properties of GMZ bentonite
Laboratory tests are conducted on the compacted Gaomiaozi (GMZ) bentonite by using the DIL 806 thermal dilatometer. The influences of different factors on the thermal expansion properties of the bentonite are systematically analyzed.

Linear thermal expansion behavior of compacted bentonite buffer materials
In a geological repository system, buffer is indispensable to ensure the safe disposal of high-level radioactive waste (HLW). Because heat generated from spent nuclear fuel in a canister is released to the surrounding buffers, thermal properties of such ...

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 ...

Tumour–host interactions in Drosophila: mechanisms in the tumour micro‐ and macroenvironment
This review examines how tumour–host crosstalk takes place at multiple levels of biological organisation, from local cell competition and immune crosstalk to organism‐wide metabolic and physiological collapse. Here, we integrate findings from Drosophila melanogaster studies that reveal conserved mechanisms through which tumours hijack host systems to ...

Long‐term hippocampal alterations and cognitive impairment in a murine model of surgical sepsis
Using a mouse model of surgical sepsis, we tested long‐term memory and analyzed the transcriptome of single cells isolated from the hippocampus. Survivor mice showed worse memory, loss of certain brain cell subpopulations, and abnormal immune cell activity—suggesting that post‐sepsis brain alterations may be linked to cognitive deficits.

Thermodynamic description of Eu(NO3)3-NaNO3-H2O and Eu(NO3)3-Mg(NO3)2-H2O systems. Solubility experiments and full dissociation Pitzer models [PDF]
Solubility studies in the systems Eu(NO3)3-NaNO3-H2O and Eu(NO3)3-Mg(NO3)2-H2O were conducted at T = (22 ± 2) °C including solid phase identification by X-ray powder diffraction and Schreinemakers' method. Iso-water activity data of both systems at 25 °C

ABSTRACT Objective Super‐Refractory Status Epilepticus (SRSE) is a rare, life‐threatening neurological emergency with unclear etiology in many cases. Mitochondrial dysfunction, often due to disease‐causing genetic variants, is increasingly recognized as a cause, with each gene producing distinct pathophysiological mechanisms.
