Not Only Diabetes but Also Prediabetes Leads to Functional Decline and Disability in Older Adults by Ying Shang (187628)

“…</p> <p><b>RESULTS: </b>At baseline, 650 (32.3%) had prediabetes and 151 had diabetes<b> </b>(7.5%).<b> </b>In multi-adjusted mixed effect models,<b> </b>prediabetes was associated with an increased chair stand time (0.33, 95% CI 0.05 to 0.61), a decreased walking speed (-0.006, -0.010 to -0.002), and an accelerated disability progression (0.05, 95% CI 0.01 to 0.08), even after controlling for the future development of diabetes. …”

Preparation and Formation Mechanism of Covalent–Noncovalent Forces Stabilizing Lignin Nanospheres and Their Application in Superhydrophobic and Carbon Materials by Hang Wang (137566)

“…Experiments demonstrated that the action of temperature resulted in the fracture of β-O-4 ether and C_α–C_β bonds, as well as hydroxyl and −OCH₃ lignin molecule groups, leading to the formation of free radicals in the LNS. In addition, a large number of adjacent intramolecular and intermolecular radicals almost simultaneously generated chemical cross-linking via α-5, β-5, β–β′ bonds, and so forth. …”

The coevolution of effort and replication, replicated and corrected by Florian Kohrt (13918527)

“…The replication was successful with one exception. We find that selection acting on scientist’s propensity for replication frequency caused a brief period of exuberant replication not observed in the original paper due to a coding error. …”

Relationship between Age/Gender-Induced Survival Changes and the Magnitude of Inflammatory Activation and Organ Dysfunction in Post-Traumatic Sepsis by Susanne Drechsler (111514)

“…To compare general response patterns among groups, we calculated two scores: the inflammatory response (including KC, MIP-1α, TNFα, MCP-1, IFNγ, IL-1β,-5,-6,-10) and the organ dysfunction score (Urea, ALT, AST and LDH). …”

Extracellular Polymeric Substances (EPS) of Freshwater Biofilms Stabilize and Modify CeO₂ and Ag Nanoparticles by Alexandra Kroll (218239)

Synthesis and Fluorescence Characterization of MEHPPV Oligomers by Andrew J. Tilley (1591906)

“…The fluorescence spectra, emission quantum yields, and lifetimes of the oligomers have been characterized in dilute chloroform solutions. The oligomers exhibit a sequential increase in absorption and emission wavelength maxima and a decrease in fluorescence lifetime as the π conjugation length is increased. …”
