Arboviral Encephalitis01:25

Arboviral Encephalitis

Arboviral encephalitis refers to brain inflammation caused by arthropod-borne viruses, particularly those transmitted through mosquito vectors. Among these, West Nile virus (WNV), a member of the Flaviviridae family, is a significant public health concern. WNV is an enveloped, positive-sense, single-stranded RNA virus. Human infection typically begins when an infected mosquito introduces the virus into the dermis during feeding. The primary transmission cycle involves birds as amplifying hosts...

Encephalitis l: Introduction

Encephalitis is inflammation of the brain parenchyma, most often due to infections or autoimmune processes. It presents with neuropsychiatric features such as fever, altered mental status, behavioral changes, cognitive dysfunction, seizures, focal deficits, and sometimes autonomic instability. In some cases, the meninges are also involved, resulting in meningoencephalitis.Infectious CausesInfectious encephalitis is most commonly viral but can also result from bacterial, fungal, or parasitic...

Encephalitis ll: Pathophysiology

Encephalitis is inflammation of the brain parenchyma caused by direct viral invasion or immune-mediated mechanisms triggered by infections or tumors. Both processes lead to neuronal injury, disrupted neurotransmission, and diverse neurological symptoms, often with overlapping clinical and pathological features.Autoimmune EncephalitisIn autoimmune encephalitis, antibodies target neuronal antigens on cell surfaces, synapses, or within neurons. A key example is anti-NMDAR encephalitis, which can...

Area of Science:

  • Materials Science
  • Electrochemistry
  • Catalysis

Background:

  • Developing low-cost, high-efficiency electrocatalysts is crucial for water splitting technologies.
  • Existing noble metal catalysts are expensive and unsustainable for widespread application.

Purpose of the Study:

  • To develop novel, cost-effective electrocatalysts for efficient hydrogen and oxygen evolution in water splitting.
  • To investigate the effect of plasma spray modification and iron doping on nickel mesh performance.

Main Methods:

  • Utilized plasma spray (PS) to induce a "microcosmic explosion" (me) on nickel (Ni) mesh, creating nanoscale Ni modifications (me-PS-NM electrodes).
  • Doped the me-PS-NM electrodes with Fe3+ to further enhance electrocatalytic activity.
  • Tested the electrodes' performance and stability for overall water splitting.

Main Results:

  • The me-PS-NM electrodes exhibited excellent hydrogen evolution reaction (HER) activity.
  • Fe3+-doped me-PS-NM electrodes showed significantly enhanced oxygen evolution reaction (OER) activity.
  • The modified nickel mesh system demonstrated superior activity and stability for overall water splitting, without requiring noble metals.

Conclusions:

  • Plasma spray-induced nanoscale modification is an effective strategy for creating high-performance, low-cost electrocatalysts.
  • Iron doping further boosts the electrocatalytic efficiency, particularly for oxygen evolution.
  • These noble-metal-free electrodes present a promising alternative for sustainable water splitting applications.
