Change in Depression Severity Among Depressed Older Crime Victims.

The crime rates in urban centers are rising. The psychological impact of crime can range from distress to longstanding mental health impairment. Despite the rising crime rates and psychological impact on victims, little research has been conducted on older adult crime victims' mental health.

Augmented Reality Education Experience (AREduX): An Augmented Reality Experience and Experiential Education Medium to Teach Empathy to Healthcare Providers and Caregivers of Persons Living With Dementia.

Previous research indicates that greater empathy by healthcare providers (HCPs) and informal caregivers leads to better care and improved patient satisfaction and outcomes for persons living with dementia (PLWD). Since few programs exist to train HCPs to develop empathy, we created the augmented reality education experience (AREduX), a proof-of-concept prototype that employs augmented reality (AR) to simulate the physical and cognitive symptoms that PLWD experience. This unique experience simulates the effects of dementia for training purposes with the goal of promoting more empathetic responses from HCPs and informal caregivers when attending to a PLWD.

Identification and Functional Characterization of a Putative Alternative Oxidase (Aox) in f. sp. .

The mitochondrial electron transport chain consists of the classical protein complexes (I-IV) that facilitate the flow of electrons and coupled oxidative phosphorylation to produce metabolic energy. The canonical route of electron transport may diverge by the presence of alternative components to the electron transport chain. The following study comprises the bioinformatic identification and functional characterization of a putative alternative oxidase in the smut fungus f.

Three-Body Dynamics of the a_{1}(1260) Resonance from Lattice QCD.

Resonant hadronic systems often exhibit a complicated decay pattern in which three-body dynamics play a relevant or even dominant role. In this work we focus on the a_{1}(1260) resonance. For the first time, the pole position and branching ratios of a three-body resonance are calculated from lattice QCD using one-, two-, and three-meson interpolators and a three-body finite-volume formalism extended to spin and coupled channels.
