Ethylammonium nitrate (EAN) is one of the most studied protic ionic liquids (ILs) offering unique properties for self-assembly of poloxamers. Understanding how solvent composition in EAN-water mixtures governs block copolymer self-assembly has yet to be investigated in full detail. This study systematically investigates the temperature-driven self-assembly of Poloxamer 407 in the full composition range of EAN-water mixtures, combining small-angle X-ray scattering (SAXS), rheology, and...

In heterosexual couples, both partners' intentions to have a baby (or not) are associated with the likelihood of a subsequent birth, yet most studies only measure women's intentions. Therefore, little is known about the potential association of couple agreement or disagreement on intentions or on such values as importance of parenthood, career, and leisure and the implications for childbearing. The goal of this article is to assess whether couple-level agreement or disagreement in fertility...

Kawasaki disease (KD) is a systemic vasculitis primarily affecting children, but its presentation can be highly variable, especially in young infants. While KD is classically associated with a polymorphous rash, annular or targetoid rashes are rare and can contribute to diagnostic uncertainty. Additionally, neurological complications such as seizures and aseptic meningitis are uncommon, further complicating recognition. We present a case with these atypical features, which closely mimic other...

Postprostatectomy urinary incontinence (PPUI) is a prevalent complication following radical prostatectomy, with long‑term incontinence affecting up to one‑third of patients. Conventional treatments are limited by inconsistent efficacy, side effects or invasiveness, indicating demand for alternative therapies. This narrative review assessed clinical evidence of regenerative therapies, especially autologous stem cell approaches, for PPUI. We searched multiple databases for studies published...
