Abstract Background and Aims Catheter thrombosis remains one of the major complications hemodialysis. Superhydrophobic surfaces are suggested to be capable creating an energy barrier that prevents cells proteins from contacting with catheter surface directly, making less thrombotic. Fluorinated graphene (FG) is a superhydrophobic material. It has been applied create self-cleaning surfaces. also...

This paper introduces the concept of Fg-metric Space. We generalize G-metric space. Some supporting examples are given.

Fibrinogen (Fg) has been recognized to play a central role in coagulation, inflammation and tissue regeneration. Several studies have used Fg deficient mice (Fg(-/-)) in comparison with heterozygous mice (Fg(+/-)) to point the proinflammatory role of Fg in diverse pathological conditions and disease states. Although Fg(+/-) mice are considered 'normal', plasma Fg is reduced to ~75% of the norma...
