Providing the Tools to Facilitate Quality Care for Children with Sickle Cell Disease.

Meeting best-practice guidelines can significantly enhance quality of life and longevity for those with sickle cell disease (SCD). However, many clinical settings lack the necessary resources for optimal care. We present an integrated suite of tools and collaborative actions designed to enhance SCD care.

Interoperable software platforms for introducing artificial intelligence components in manufacturing: A meta-framework for security and privacy.

The irruption of advanced technologies and the limited knowledge of software architectures are making it difficult for many small and medium-sized manufacturing companies to keep up with what is being called the fourth industrial revolution (Industry 4.0, Industry of the Future). Container orchestration platforms provide layers of simplification for key requirements such as interoperability, security, and privacy, and provide mechanisms that allow companies and technology providers to focus on their specific functionalities and goals, instead of investing considerable time and effort in the underlying platform on which the solution will operate.

Teaching evidence-based practice to undergraduate healthcare students Educators' knowledge, skills, attitudes, current practice, perceived barriers, and facilitators: A Danish cross-sectional study.

Background: Evidence-Based Practice is recognized as a standard practice and a core competence for clinical healthcare professionals and therefore educators' competences in teaching Evidence-Based Practice are essential. Yet only little is known about the knowledge, skills, attitudes, and teaching practices around Evidence-Based Practice among educators of Danish undergraduate healthcare students.

Objectives: The objectives of this study were to describe: 1) the Evidence-Based Practice profiles regarding attitudes, knowledge, skills, and teaching practices among educators who teach in undergraduate healthcare educations; 2) the current state of teaching Evidence-Based Practice in undergraduate program curricula; 3) the perceived barriers and facilitators to teach Evidence-Based Practice; and 4) the educators` needs regarding teaching Evidence-Based Practice.

Quasi-planar InGaAsSb p-B-n photodiodes for spectroscopic sensing.

An InGaAsSb p-B-n structure has been designed and characterized for zero bias low power detection applications. Devices were grown by molecular beam epitaxy and fabricated into quasi-planar photodiodes with a 2.25 µm cut-off wavelength.

FunAndes - A functional trait database of Andean plants.

We introduce the FunAndes database, a compilation of functional trait data for the Andean flora spanning six countries. FunAndes contains data on 24 traits across 2,694 taxa, for a total of 105,466 entries. The database features plant-morphological attributes including growth form, and leaf, stem, and wood traits measured at the species or individual level, together with geographic metadata (i.
