A study of the weathering mechanism of innovative polyurethane powder coatings has been performed. UV-B irradiation and condensation cycle accelerated tests were carried out on two different polyurethane powder coating formulations for outdoor applications. Using Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy and microscope observation, it was possible to analyze the photochemical and morphological modifications. In addition, the color and gloss changes were measured. Organic coatings are often in contact with solvents in particular during cleaning actions. The chemical resistance was then studied considering the evolution of the corrosion barrier property of the coating as a function of the solvent contact time. Electrochemical impedance spectroscopy measurements were carried out. Methylethylketone (polar) and xylene (apolar) were considered as representative solvents. Due to the strong polarity, the first solvent showed a strong interaction with the hydrogen bonds between the polyurethane chains causing the solvent uptake. The amount of solvent uptake depends on the coating chains rigidity caused by the different polyester resin monomers. The apolar xylene presented no significant interaction with the coatings.

Kaafarani, Tyler J. Loftus

Summary: This study investigates trauma and emergency surgeons' knowledge and perception of using AI-based tools in clinical decision-making processes. The results show that there are technology enthusiasts and skeptics among surgeons, with a preference towards more classical decision-making aids. Lack of knowledge about AI and mistrust are also observed.

Summary: This study explores the understanding, barriers, and facilitators of shared decision-making (SDM) in trauma and emergency surgery. Findings show that less than half of the surgeons understand SDM and 30% still see value in exclusively engaging multidisciplinary provider teams without involving the patient. The inclusion of SDM practices in clinical guidelines is recommended.

Summary: The John N. Insall Knee Society Traveling Fellowship allows four international orthopedic surgeons with fellowship training in arthroplasty or sports to travel to knee surgery centers in North America for one month. The fellowship aims to promote research and education, as well as facilitate the exchange of ideas. The impact of such traveling fellowships on surgeon preferences has not been studied.

Synergistic contribution of bio-based additives in wood paint: The combined effect of pigment deriving from spirulina and multifunctional filler based on carnauba wax

Massimo Calovi, Stefano Rossi

Summary: This study aims to investigate the synergistic behavior of two bio-based additives in a bio-based wood paint, namely spirulina powder extract as a natural pigment and carnauba wax as a multifunctional filler. The impact of these additives on the morphology and durability of the coatings was assessed through various tests and analyses. The results demonstrate that the combination of spirulina and wax enhances the aesthetic and protective properties of the paint.

From wood waste to wood protection: New application of black bio renewable water-based dispersions as pigment for bio-based wood paint

Massimo Calovi, Stefano Rossi

Summary: This study evaluates the impact of different quantities of a bio-renewable black pigment derived from wood waste on the durability of a bio-based wood paint. The pigment's effect on the coating's aesthetics is analyzed through colorimetric measurements and optical microscopy observations. Durability is assessed through exposure to UV-B radiation and continuous thermal shocks, with infrared spectroscopy analysis, colorimetric inspections, adhesion tests, and scanning electron microscope observations helping to analyze the pigment's influence on the paint's protective properties. Chemical resistance tests demonstrate that the pigment does not negatively affect the paint's polymeric matrix barrier performance. Thermal testing also shows that the black pigment increases heat absorption by the paint, making it suitable for energy-saving applications. Ultimately, this study highlights the potential of using a bio-renewable water-based dispersion as a functional pigment in bio-based wood paint, enhancing appearance without compromising protective performance.

Summary: The timing of early cholecystectomy does not affect post-operative complications and mortality, but it does have an impact on intraoperative complications and partial cholecystectomy rates. As the duration of symptoms increases, the complexity and risk of surgery also increase due to worsening inflammation.

Summary: This study presents a new approach to studying the mechanism of filiform corrosion in organic coated steel using the scanning vibrating electrode technique (SVET) and micropotentiometry (potentiometric SECM). The electrochemical activity under the coating was evaluated by mapping the ionic current densities coming from artificial defects made in specific locations of the filament. Antimony tips were also used to investigate the pH changes associated with different corrosion reactions at the metal-paint interface. Local pH levels along the filament in the anodic and cathodic regions were determined.

Summary: This study validates the feasibility of the Israeli Score (IS) in predicting common bile duct stones (CBDS) in patients with acute calculous cholecystitis (ACC). The results show a linear trend between IS and the presence of CBDS, with higher rates of CBDS in patients with an IS of 3. The prediction model based on IS has a high accuracy and can help optimize the management of patients with ACC.
