DISCUSSION/CONCLUSION This study aimed to reduce the inappropriate use of urinary catheters in a rural hospital with limited resources. The findings indicate that by using a change model, such as the Influencer Change Model, it is possible to promote better patient care through empowering healthcare staff to implement accepted protocols more…[Read more]

This result provides a new approach for non-invasive blood glucose monitoring based on QCM.Hydrogels have recently garnered tremendous interest due to their potential application in soft electronics, human-machine interfaces, sensors, actuators, and flexible energy storage. Benefiting from their impressive combination of hydrophilicity, metallic…[Read more]

A patient with impaired liver functional reserve (ICG-R15 > 20%) can be a candidate for PVE and successive hepatectomy, as safely as a patient with normal and slightly impaired liver functional reserve (ICG-R15 ≤ 20%).

002). Recommendations were equally effective for males and females, for different patient ages, and over time. Provider recommendation was also associated with higher HPV vaccine series completion and follow-through. Provider discussion was similarly associated with higher HPV vaccine initiation (OR = 12.4, 95% CI 6.3-24.3). In summary, provider…[Read more]

as evidenced in a recent study on umpolung of these reactive intermediates. While our efforts to expand M/X phosphinidenoid complex chemistry are ongoing, we want to emphasize that the development of new reactive intermediates not only improves our understanding of bonding and reactivity but also opens new perspectives in organoelement…[Read more]

In the current investigation, we used structural equation mediation modeling to examine the relations between executive function (indexed by measures of working memory, shifting, and inhibition), decoding ability, and reading comprehension in a sample of 298 6- to 8-year-old children (N =132 and 166 for boys and girls, respectively). Results for…[Read more]

Actively regulated symmetry breaking, which is ubiquitous in biological cells, underlies phenomena such as directed cellular movement and morphological polarization. Here we investigate how an organ-level polarity pattern emerges through symmetry breaking at the cellular level during the formation of a mechanosensory organ. Combining theory,…[Read more]
