The corrosion behavior of uncoated, nickel (Ni) and nickel–phosphorous (Ni–P)-coated AISI 430 alloy was investigated in Ar–3%H2 and Ar–3%H2–3%H2O atmosphere at 800 °C for 100 h. Microstructure, chemical composition, and reaction products were analyzed by scanning electron microscopy, energy-dispersive spectroscopy, and X-ray diffraction techniques. The corrosion extent of Ni–P-coated AISI 430 is higher than Ni-coated AISI 430. Oxidation promotes corrosion in the uncoated and coated alloy. The oxidation rate of Ni-coated alloy is the lowest in Ar–3%H2 but Ni–P-coated alloy in Ar–3%H2–3%H2O for initial 20 h. The oxidation rate of the Ni–P-coated sample is ~14 times higher in 20–100 h in Ar–3%H2–3%H2O. External growth of Cr2O3 is observed for Ni-coated alloy in Ar–3%H2 and for Ni–P-coated alloy in both the atmospheres. Inward growth of Cr2O3 by AISI 430 alloy consumption attributes to the lowest oxidation rate and the corrosion extent of Ni-coated sample in Ar–3%H2–3%H2O.

Background
Fontan survivors have depressed cardiac index that worsens over time. Serum biomarker measurement is minimally invasive, rapid, widely available, and may be useful for serial monitoring. The purpose of this study was to identify biomarkers that correlate with lower cardiac index in Fontan patients.
Methods and resultsThis study was a multi-centre case series assessing the correlations between biomarkers and cardiac magnetic resonance-derived cardiac index in Fontan patients ⩾6 years of age with biochemical and haematopoietic biomarkers obtained ±12 months from cardiac magnetic resonance. Medical history and biomarker values were obtained by chart review. Spearman’s Rank correlation assessed associations between biomarker z-scores and cardiac index. Biomarkers with significant correlations had receiver operating characteristic curves and area under the curve estimated. In total, 97 cardiac magnetic resonances in 87 patients met inclusion criteria: median age at cardiac magnetic resonance was 15 (6–33) years. Significant correlations were found between cardiac index and total alkaline phosphatase (−0.26, p=0.04), estimated creatinine clearance (0.26, p=0.02), and mean corpuscular volume (−0.32, p<0.01). Area under the curve for the three individual biomarkers was 0.63–0.69. Area under the curve for the three-biomarker panel was 0.75. Comparison of cardiac index above and below the receiver operating characteristic curve-identified cut-off points revealed significant differences for each biomarker (p<0.01) and for the composite panel [median cardiac index for higher-risk group=2.17 L/minute/m2 versus lower-risk group=2.96 L/minute/m2, (p<0.01)].
ConclusionsHigher total alkaline phosphatase and mean corpuscular volume as well as lower estimated creatinine clearance identify Fontan patients with lower cardiac index. Using biomarkers to monitor haemodynamics and organ-specific effects warrants prospective investigation.
