Article Abstract
This study extends the Lucas-Washburn theory through non-equilibrium thermodynamic analysis to examine fluid absorption in medical foams used for hemorrhage control. As a universal model for capillary flow in porous media, the theory demonstrated strong agreement with experimental results, confirming its semi-quantitative accuracy. Minor deviations, likely due to material heterogeneity, were observed and explained, enhancing the theory's applicability to real-world conditions. Our findings underscore the universality of the Lucas-Washburn framework and provide valuable insights for optimizing the design of medical foams, ultimately contributing to more effective bleeding control solutions in clinical applications.

Atherosclerosis (AS), a chronic inflammatory disease and a leading cause of cardiovascular morbidity and mortality. Macrophage-mediated lipid uptake and inflammation are central to plaque formation. TREM2, an immunoreceptor expressed in macrophages, has been reported to regulate lipid metabolism and inflammation, yet its role in atherosclerosis remains controversial.

Current clinical treatments for intervertebral disc (IVD) herniation (e.g., discectomy) often lead to re-herniation, and tissue engineering scaffolds for annulus fibrosus (AF) regeneration remain scarce, particularly those capable of mimicking the multilayered structure of native AF.

In this research, hemp protein isolate (HPI) was obtained from hemp cake using isoelectric precipitation and conjugated with maltodextrin through the Maillard reaction using wet-heating alone and combined with ultrasound to enhance its structural, functional properties (including solubility, emulsifying, foaming properties and water/oil holding capcity), and antioxidant properties. Covalent bonds between HPI and maltodextrin were confirmed using methods like SDS-PAGE, FTIR, XRD, fluorescence spectroscopy, secondary structure analysis, amino acid profile, and glycation degree (DG) measurement. Ultrasound significantly accelerated glycation, reaching a DG of 25.

Mango ( L.) is cultivated in tropical and subtropical regions, with all parts of the tree-including leaves-used traditionally to treat diabetes, infections, pain, and other conditions. Mango leaves contain proteins, minerals, vitamins, and phenolic compounds, including mangiferin, quercetin, and kaempferol, whose content varies by cultivar.
