The effect of expanded graphite on the physical properties of conductive EVA/wax phase change blends for thermal energy storage by Mochane, M. J.

“…The storage modulus of the EVA/wax/EG composite was higher than that of the EVA/EG composite, which is ascribed to a better interaction between the EVA and the wax-covered EG that significantly reduced the EVA chain mobility. The composites showed a decrease in impact strength with increasing EG and wax contents. …”

National trends of outcomes in transcatheter aortic valve replacement (TAVR) through transapical versus endovascular approach: From the National Inpatient Sample (NIS). by Abugroun, Ashraf

“…Among the endovascular-TAVR group, national trends showed a diminishing incidence of procedural mortality (incidence rate ratio [IRR] 0.77; 95% CI: 0.72-0.84, p < 0.001), stroke (IRR 0.80; 95% CI: 0.73-0.87, p < 0.001), and all secondary outcomes, but no significant change in myocardial infarction. In contrast, most transapical-TAVR related procedural complications remained unchanged over time, except for a significant decrease in stroke, acute respiratory failure and need for pacemaker insertion. …”
