Outcomes of Allogenic Umbilical Cord Mesenchymal Stem Cell infusion for Liver Cirrhosis due to Biliary Atresia after Kasai Operation.

Background And Aim: Although Kasai surgery has saved many patients with biliary atresia, the long-term survival rate remains low. Recently, cell therapy has been explored as a potential strategy to improve post-surgical survival. This study aims to evaluate the safety and outcomes of allogeneic umbilical cord mesenchymal stem cell (UC-MSC) infusion in management of liver cirrhosis due to Biliary Atresia after Kasai Operation.

Modified Kasai operation combined with autologous bone marrow mononuclear cell infusion for biliary atresia.

Aim: To evaluate the safety and outcomes of modified Kasai operation combined with autologous bone marrow mononuclear cell (BMMNC) infusion for biliary atresia (BA).

Methods: A matched control study was conducted between January 2015 and December 2021. Ten consecutive children with biliary atresia (BA) who underwent the modified Kasai operation combined with autologous BMMNC infusion (cell therapy group) and ten children who had only the modified Kasai operation (control group) were included in the study.

Controlled synthesis of various FeO morphologies as energy storage materials.

Air pollution from vehicle emissions is a major problem in developing countries. Consequently, the use of iron-based rechargeable batteries, which is an effective method of reducing air pollution, have been extensively studied for electric vehicles. The structures and morphologies of iron particles significantly affect the cycle performance of iron-based rechargeable batteries.

Hydrothermal Synthesis of -Fe₂O₃ as Anode for Fe/Air Battery.

The size, shape and structure of iron particles in iron electrode influence the electrochemical properties of Fe/air cells. In order to improve the electrochemical performance of Fe/air cells, an attempt has been made successfully to synthesize iron oxide particles with different surface morphologies and have been used as negative electrodes. Fe₂O₃ nanoparticles were synthesized by hydrothermal method, in which their different morphologies viz.

A study of nanosize Fe3O4 deposited on carbon matrix.

Nanosized crystalline Fe3O4 (with an average particle size of 16 nm) was successfully synthesized on a carbon matrix surface. The prepared sample was heat-treated in the temperature range 300 degrees C - 750 degrees C to remove residual impurities and to obtain a final product with a 77:23 ratio between magnetite and the carbon support. The sample was subjected to physicochemical and electrochemical tests.
