High Relative Humidity‐Induced Growth of Perovskite Nanowires from Glass toward Single‐Mode Photonic Nanolasers at Sub‐100‐nm Scale by Zhiqiang Wang, Xinkuo Li, Chenduan Chen, Minhan Lou, Jiajia Wu, Kai Gao, Zengling Li, Ke Sun, Zhou Li, Zhu Xiao, Linhan Li, Pan Wang, Sai Bai, Jianrong Qiu, Dezhi Tan

“…Herein, high RH‐induced growth of anisotropic MHP structures on glass surfaces is reported under 25 °C and atmospheric conditions on a basis of glass corrosion by moisture. Nanowires (NWs) with tunable length and composition are obtained under 85% RH air, and water molecule‐induced facet engineering of perovskite is established for anisotropic growth. …”

Life Cycle Analysis of a Steel Railway Bridge over the Operational Period considering Different Maintenance Scenarios: Application to a Case Study by João N. D. Fernandes, José C. Matos, Hélder S. Sousa, Mário R. F. Coelho

“…The analysis considers a multi-hazard future scenario, in which a flood event occurs while corrosion phenomena were already in place. The results show the feasibility of the proposed methodology as a support for the establishment of an efficient maintenance schedule to prevent bridge severe degradation, as well as to establish recovery plans in case of a sudden event.…”

High Blood Pressure Effects on the Blood to Cerebrospinal Fluid Barrier and Cerebrospinal Fluid Protein Composition: A Two-Dimensional Electrophoresis Study in Spontaneously Hypert... by Ibrahim González-Marrero, Leandro Castañeyra-Ruiz, Juan M. González-Toledo, Agustín Castañeyra-Ruiz, Hector de Paz-Carmona, Rafael Castro, Juan R. Hernandez-Fernaud, Agustín Castañeyra-Perdomo, Emilia M. Carmona-Calero

“…The results showed different proteomic profiles between SHR and WKY, that α-1-antitrypsin, apolipoprotein A1, albumin, immunoglobulin G, vitamin D binding protein, haptoglobin and α-1-macroglobulin were found to be up-regulated in SHR, and apolipoprotein E, transthyretin, α-2-HS-glycoprotein, transferrin, α-1β-glycoprotein, kininogen and carbonic anhidrase II were down-regulated in SHR. The conclusion made here is that hypertension in SHR produces important variations in cerebrospinal fluid proteins that could be due to a choroid plexus dysfunction and this fact supports the close connection between hypertension and blood to cerebrospinal fluid barrier disruption.…”

“…Differences in the particle size and shape are put into relationship with the mechanism of particle formation, that is, primary (well sorted, small) or secondary (idiomorphic, fine to coarse grained) origin for chloride and sulfate crystals and transport/settling for soil (silicate, carbonate and metal oxide) particles. The influence of size, shape, and mixing state of particles on ice nucleation and radiative properties is also discussed.…”
