Prediction of primary knock-on damage during electron microscopy characterization of lithium-containing materials.

To fulfill power and energy demands, lithium-ion battery (LIB) is being considered as a promising energy storage device. For the development of LIBs, high-resolution electron microscopy characterization of battery materials is crucial. During this characterization, the interaction of beam-electrons with Li-containing materials causes damage through several processes, especially knock-on damage.

High school basic life support training: Is the trainer's experience of cardiopulmonary resuscitation in the actual setting important? A randomized control trial.

Background: Although basic life support (BLS) has been taught in school by a variety of professionals, it is still unclear that, whether the instructor's previous cardiopulmonary resuscitation (CPR) experience is an important factor. This study aimed to compare the effect of BLS training, based on trainer experience in actual situations, on knowledge and skills of secondary high school students.

Materials And Methods: In this randomized controlled trial, 150 high school students were selected based on the inclusion criteria and then assigned into two groups, (76 in Group A), and (74 in Group B) randomly.

Effect of family presence during teaching rounds on patient's anxiety and satisfaction in cardiac intensive care unit: A double-blind randomized controlled trial.

Introduction: The family members' presence during teaching rounds is introduced as a challenging issue. The outcomes of family presence during teaching rounds in adult care settings is an under investigate issue. The propose of this study was to determining the effect of family presence at teaching rounds on patient's anxiety and satisfaction in cardiac intensive care unit (CICU).

Massage Therapy in Management of Occupational Stress in Emergency Medical Services Staffs: a Randomized Controlled Trial.

Background: Results of various studies indicate that emergency medical service (EMS) staff suffer from occupational stress that adversely affects their quality of life and their care quality.

Purpose: This study aimed at determining the effect of massage on occupational stress experienced by emergency medical service staff.

Setting: Prehospital emergency medical services stations of a city in the southwest of Iran.

Effect of self-acupressure on fasting blood sugar (FBS) and insulin level in type 2 diabetes patients: a randomized clinical trial.

Background: Uncontrolled symptoms of diabetes can lead to irreparable damage to vital organs. Despite the global trend towards the use of complementary alternative therapies, few studies have evaluated the effectiveness of self-acupressure in diabetes patients.

Objective: The aim of this study was to determine the effect of self-acupressure on FBS and insulin level in type 2 diabetes patients.
