Article Abstract
The HER requires a highly efficient, cost-effective, and stable catalyst to adapt to the large-scale hydrogen industry. Nickel has been confirmed to be useful to drive the water splitting reaction, but the intrinsic performance remains unsatisfactory. In this work, nickel (EG-Ni) with compressive strain was prepared through a one-step electrochemical deposition strategy. It shows an outstanding enhancement for the HER, and it achieves a current density of 10 mA cm at a low overpotential of 85.9 mV. A long-term durability test proves that the EG-Ni can tolerate a large current density of 100 mA cm, and the overpotential remains steady without dramatically increasing. Such a low overpotential and superior stability are attributed to the optimized adsorption energy on the catalyst surface, as evidenced by the downshifted position of the d-band center.

A prototype bioactive calcium phosphate model-specifically hydroxyapatite (HA) derived from eggshells-was developed using a sodium silicate (NaSiO) solution as an inorganic binder, precursor, and reinforcing agent, in combination with collagen nanofibers for bone engineering applications. The sodium silicate solution, functioning as a waterglass adhesive, introduced cohesive forces within the hydroxyapatite matrix, thereby enhancing its physical, chemical, and mechanical properties. Eggshell-derived bioactive hydroxyapatite offers several advantages, including non-toxicity, biocompatibility, collagen adhesion, and the ability to mimic bone structure, making it suitable for tissue engineering.

The aim of this study was to compare the compressive forces generated by Dynamic Compression Angle-Stable Interlocking Nail (DCASIN) with those of traditional Dynamic Compression Plates (DCP) and Locking Compression Plates (LCP) using synthetic diaphyseal bone models (SDBM). Three groups were established based on the fixation method (G-DCASIN, G-DCP, and G-LCP), with implants fixed to SDBM simulating a transverse fracture, comprising 10 repetitions per group. A strain-gauge load cell was positioned in the SDBM gap to measure compressive forces in kilograms, recorded 30 s after the completion of each group-specific compression technique.

Matrix metalloproteinases (MMPs) and a disintegrin and metalloproteinase with thrombospondin motifs (ADAMTS) significantly impact articular cartilage biomechanical properties in osteoarthritis (OA). However, comprehensive understanding of biomechanical responses and the efficacy of potential therapeutic interventions remains limited. This study investigates how MMPs and ADAMTS synergistically degenerate cartilage biomechanical properties under different loading conditions, and evaluates the preventive role of cartilage oligomeric matrix protein (COMP) and tissue inhibitor of metalloproteinase-3 (TIMP-3).

Background: Shield-triggered autoinjectors (AIs) aim to reduce needle phobia and accidental needlestick injuries and improve usability. However, they may cause deeper injections due to tissue compression. This study investigates the mechanical response of AI application into abdominal tissue in-vivo.

Plectin is a giant protein of the plakin family that crosslinks the cytoskeleton of mammalian cells. It is expressed in virtually all tissues and its dysfunction is associated with various diseases such as skin blistering. There is evidence that plectin regulates the mechanical integrity of the cytoskeleton in diverse cell and tissue types.
