Research on asphalt pavement structure with cement treated large size macadam (CTB-50) base course.

Cement-treated large-size macadam base (CTB-50) has a high modulus, high strength, and good durability, which can increase the paving and rolling thickness, reduce the base layers, and enhance the overall structure of the pavement structure. However, there are no studies conducted on the mechanical response of asphalt pavement with a CTB-50 base course such that it can be promoted and applied in pavement engineering using CTB-50. This study analyzed the mechanical response and fatigue life of asphalt pavement structures with different base courses.

Treatment of Rheumatoid Arthritis Based on the Inherent Bioactivity of Black Phosphorus Nanosheets.

Rheumatoid arthritis (RA) is an autoimmune disease that affects the living quality of patients, especially the elderly population. RA-related morbidity and mortality increase significantly with age, while current clinical drugs for RA are far from satisfactory and may have serious side effects. Therefore, the development of new drugs with higher biosafety and efficacy is demanding.

ELMO1 Deficiency Reduces Neutrophil Chemotaxis in Murine Peritonitis.

Peritoneal inflammation remains a major cause of treatment failure in patients with kidney failure who receive peritoneal dialysis. Peritoneal inflammation is characterized by an increase in neutrophil infiltration. However, the molecular mechanisms that control neutrophil recruitment in peritonitis are not fully understood.
