An efficient green ionic liquid for the corrosion inhibition of reinforcement steel in neutral and alkaline highly saline simulated concrete pore solutions by Sliem, Mostafa H.

“…The inhibition efficiency was improved as the concentration of Q-32 and pH values were increased. However, it decreased as the temperature was raised. A Q-32 concentration of 20 µmol L–1 exhibited a 94% inhibition efficiency at 20 °C. …”

A Modification to Enhance the Survival of the Island FDMA Flap by Adding a Skin Bridge by Al Lahham, Salim

“…We combined Foucher and Holevich characteristics to design a flap that promises to solve the problem. Methods: This is a case series that includes 9 patients where we describe a technique that has the potential to enhance the survival of the first dorsal metacarpal artery (FDMA) flap and decreases the rate of distal necrosis via addition of a 5-mm skin bridge to the pedicle and by avoiding tunneling. …”
