"Warrior who transcends adversity": A qualitative examination of resilience among mothers caring for adolescents with congenital heart disease.

Purpose: Parenting resilience is essential for the well-being and development of children with chronic illnesses. Given the importance of parenting resilience in this context, this study explored the nature of parenting resilience among mothers caring for adolescents with congenital heart disease (CHD).

Design And Methods: We adopted Husserl's phenomenological approach and conducted semistructured in-depth interviews.

Caring perceptions and experiences of fathers of children with congenital heart disease: A systematic review of qualitative evidence.

Aim: To identify fathers' perceptions and experiences of caring for their children with congenital heart disease.

Design: A qualitative systematic review.

Data Sources: PubMed, Clinical Key, the Joanna Briggs Institute Evidence-based practice database, CINAHL Complete, Embase and PsycINFO were searched for all journal articles published before May 2020.

Probing the alkyl ligands on silylated mesoporous MCM-41 using hyperpolarized 129Xe NMR spectroscopy.

Variable-temperature hyperpolarized (HP) 129Xe NMR spectroscopy has been employed to characterize surface properties of mesoporous MCM-41 modified by silylation treatment. The characteristic chemical shifts responsible for Xe-surface interactions exhibit strong correlations with both the surface coverage and chain length of the grafted alkylsilanes. Consequently, the deshielding medium contribution due to individual alkyl ligand can be deduced based on the group contribution analysis revealing the potential use of HP 129Xe NMR for probing the surface properties of organic-functionalized porous materials.
