Coupled ZnO/SnO2 nanocomposites were successfully prepared with different molar ratios (1/1–1/10) using a homogeneous co-precipitation method. The structural properties of the obtained oxides were evaluated using different techniques: N2 sorption, Infrared spectroscopy, UVDR spectroscopy for solid compounds and scanning electron microscopy (SEM). The photocatalytic activity of the samples was tested...
The rationale of this paper is the silver nanoparticles' responsive behavior by activating adult stem cells of mesodermal and ectodermal in vivo origin. Reports on regeneration of hair follicles in rabbit skin, meaning an accelerated healing of surgical wounds and a process of hair follicle neogenesis, produced by subcutaneous implantation of some nanofibers functionalized with silver nanoparticles...

Patients with acromegaly are reported to have a 1.6 to 3.3 fold increase in the mortality rate and a 10-year reduction in their lifespan. Sleep apnea is considered the most common respiratory complication in acromegaly. The aim of our study was to evaluate the severity of sleep apnea, and its particularities, in patients with acromegaly in Cluj-Napoca, Romania. We investigated 35 patients with acromegaly,...
Tuberculosis is a global killer, claiming the lives of more than two million people annually and sickening millions more. Smoking increases the risks of becoming infected with tuberculosis, of developing the active form of disease and of dying from it. Therefore controlling the tobacco epidemic we will help control the TB epidemic. Clinicians should be more alert about reducing the TB risk among smokers...
