Kinetic, Equilibrium and thermodynamic studies on the biosorption of Cd(II) from aqueous solutions by the leaf biomass of <i>Calotropis procera</i> – ‘Sodom apple’ by Babalola J Oyebamiji, LC Overah, Adesola Babarinde, Vincent O Oninla, A Olatunde

“…The kinetic studies indicated that the biosorption process of the metal ion followed the pseudo-second-order and intraparticle diffusion models with an R2 value of 0.998 and 0.985 respectively. Equilibrium studies showed that the biosorption of Cd (II) is well represented by both Freundlich and Langmuir isotherms but the Langmuir model gave a better fit with an R2 value of 0.979, Langmuir constant bm of 0.0080 and monolayer adsorption capacity, m of 123.46. …”

A Novel Hybrid GCN-LSTM Algorithm for Energy Stock Price Prediction: Leveraging Temporal Dynamics and Inter-Stock Relationships by Babak Amiri, Amirali Haddadi, Kosar Farajpour Mojdehi

“…Experimental evaluations across multiple energy stocks show that this combined LSTMGC model significantly outperforms conventional approaches- including Linear Regression, GRU, MLP, and standalone LSTMs- when assessed using Mean Squared Error (MSE) and R-squared (R2) metrics. By jointly leveraging spatial and temporal dependencies, as well as the selective attention mechanism, the proposed framework enhances predictive accuracy and reliability, offering valuable insights for investors and policymakers navigating the evolving energy market.…”

An Important Tool in Lymphedema Management: Validation of the Turkish Version of the Gynecologic Cancer Lymphedema Questionnaire by Hanife Abakay, Ummuhan Abdulrezzak, Turkan Akbayrak

“…Criteria validity was used for the validity analysis and statistically significant (p<0.05) positive correlations were determined between skin fold thickness measurements and total points on the scale in the lymphedema group for values at the midpoint of the right and left tibial shaft (r=0.336, r=0.284). CONCLUSION: The gynecologic cancer lymphedema questionnaire was determined to be a reliable and valid scale to differentiate patients with lower limb lymphedema from those without lower limb lymphedema in a Turkish female population. …”

XPS-Characterization of Heterometallic Coordination Compounds with Optically Active Ligands by Yenny Ávila-Torres, Lázaro Huerta, Noráh Barba-Behrens

“…The heterometallic optical complexes [Cu2Co(S,S(+)cpse)3(H2O)3]·4H2O (1) and [Cu2Ni(S,S(+)cpse)3(H2O)3]·10H2O (2) were obtained from the mononuclear copper(II) compound by the addition of nickel(II) or cobalt(II) chlorides, where (H2cpse) is the acetyl amino alcohol derivative N-[2-hydroxy-1(R)-methyl-2(R)-phenylethyl]-N-methylglycine. In comparison with the homotrinuclear copper(II) compound [Cu3(S,S(+)cpse)3(H2O)3]·8H2O reported previously, the substitution of a copper(II) atom by one cobalt(II) ion gave place to a heterotrinuclear compound 1, which presents ferromagnetic-antiferromagnetic behaviour. …”
