Studies of insulin transport across intestinal epithelium using nano-encapsulation for oral delivery by Zhang, Yiming

“…With only 1 layer of insulin loaded on the surface of liposomes, the transport of insulin across Caco-2 cells was enhanced by 2.6 fold from 5.7ng/ml to 15ng/ml. An enhancement factor of more than 8x was observed with just 2 layers of insulin coating. …”

Association of current Schistosoma mansoni, Schistosoma japonicum, and Schistosoma mekongi infection status and intensity with periportal fibrosis: a systematic review and meta-ana... by Ewuzie, A, Wilburn, L, Thakrar, DB, Cheng, H, Reitzug, F, Roberts, N, Malouf, R, Chami, GF

“…In sub-Saharan Africa, before the widespread introduction of mass drug administration in 2003 there was a significant association between current infection status and periportal fibrosis (OR 5·38, 95% CI 2·03–14·25) but this association was no longer present after 2003 (1·19, 0·82–1·74). …”

In2Se3-based two-dimensional photocatalysts for water-splitting by Wong, CCY

“…Metal doping and heterojunction formation were used as strategies to improve the activity of 2D-In₂Se₃ in this research. 5 wt.% Fe-doped 2D-In₂Se₃ (Fe-In₂Se₃) by the hydrothermal method has shown the highest activity among the screened metal dopants; Fe-In₂Se₃ has a nearly three-fold increase of activity relative to 2D-In₂Se₃. …”

Low-profile and end-fire antennas for airborne applications by Chen, Zhuozhu

“…In addition, an H-plane horn antenna exhibiting an ultra-wide bandwidth from 3.4-18 GHz with an antenna thickness of only 5.508 mm is presented. A wideband coaxial-to-waveguide transition is proposed by employing a tapered ridge and metallic posts in order to enhance the bandwidth and to effectively suppress higher-order modes in the waveguide. …”
