Is It Time to Revisit the Role of Interleukin-1 Inhibitors in Osteoarthritis? by Brom M, Saxer F, Mindeholm L, Schieker M, Conaghan PG

“…Interleukin-1 (IL-1) plays a key role in the development of OA, but the results of clinical trials targeting IL-1 in OA have to date been disappointing.Methods: This narrative review is based on a literature search for publications describing interventions with direct Il-1 pathway inhibitors in patients with knee OA and substantiated by a description of key pre-clinical observations.Results: Randomized controlled studies using IL-1 inhibition as treatment approach to knee OA have read out negatively, although trends for an improvement in pain and impact on biomarkers could be observed. …”

Study on the evolution mechanism of mechanical properties of recycled concrete excited by different alkali content at high temperature by Qing Su, Zhixiong Tao

“…IntroductionAt present, the gradual reduction of sand and gravel stock is very unfavorable to the preparation of recycled concrete.MethodsTherefore, this study focused on alkali excited recycled concrete with different dosage of copper slag, and set different high temperature methods to test its mechanical properties.ResultsThe results showed that: 1) The residual compressive strength of the control group was not as good as that of the experimental group under other high temperature effects except for the experimental group under 400°C; 2) After high temperature action at 200°C, the ratios of A30, B30 and C30 relative to normal temperature are 1.07, 1.11 and 1.12 respectively, which are slightly higher than those after high temperature action at 400°C, indicating that the use of a certain amount of copper slag to replace fine aggregate quartz sand is helpful to improve the performance of alkali-stimulated recycled concrete at high temperature; 3) The flexural strength of A30 and A60 was 1.410 times and 1.371 times that of the control group after high temperature reaction at 800°C, indicating that the addition of copper slag had a positive impact on the flexural strength of alkali stimulated recycled concrete. 4) After treatment at 200°C, the bending strength ratios of control groups, A30, A60 and A100 were 0.676, 0.748, 0.728 and 0.687, respectively, while after treatment at 600°C, the corresponding ratios were 0.349, 0.440, 0.437 and 0.382, respectively, indicating that the addition of copper slag in high temperature environment, the bending strength ratio of control groups was 0.676, 0.748, 0.728 and 0.687, respectively.DiscussionIt can improve the flexural strength of alkali excited recycled concrete. …”
