Exploring the Supramolecular Interactions and Thermal Stability of Dapsone:Bipyridine Cocrystals by Combining Computational Chemistry with Experimentation.

The application of computational screening methodologies based on H-bond propensity scores, molecular complementarity, molecular electrostatic potentials, and crystal structure prediction has guided the discovery of novel cocrystals of dapsone and bipyridine (DDS:BIPY). The experimental screen, which included mechanochemical and slurry experiments as well as the contact preparation, resulted in four cocrystals, including the previously known DDS:4,4'-BIPY (2:1, CC-B) cocrystal. To understand the factors governing the formation of the DDS:2,2'-BIPY polymorphs (1:1, CC-A and CC-B) and the two DDS:4,4'-BIPY cocrystal stoichiometries (1:1 and 2:1), different experimental conditions (such as the influence of solvent, grinding/stirring time, etc.

Caring for the Entire Unit: Psychiatric Nurses' Use of Awareness.

Psychiatric nurses have a level of responsibility for everyone residing on the unit, which contributes to the need to nurse the population on the unit as a whole. Because the knowledge base regarding psychiatric nursing interventions in acute care settings is limited, this hermeneutic phenomenological study explored psychiatric nurses' experiences in providing nursing interventions to adult clients in acute care settings. Six expert psychiatric nurses were recruited through purposive, snowball sampling and were interviewed individually to gain a rich understanding of the psychiatric nursing interventions they provided to adult clients in acute care mental health settings.

Person-Centered Psychiatric Nursing Interventions in Acute Care Settings.

The knowledge base and understanding regarding psychiatric nursing interventions in acute care settings has been limited. The purpose of this hermeneutic phenomenological study was to explore psychiatric nurses' experiences in providing nursing interventions to adult clients in acute care settings. Six expert psychiatric nurses were recruited through purposive, snowball sampling and participated in key informant interviews.

Taking the right action in the right way: a comparison of frameworks for assessing the health and quality of life of a postsecondary student campus community.

The focus of campus health research, historically, has been on population health at the individual or aggregate level with little effort to examine the health of the students at a community level with a focus on the broader determinants of health and community-level intervention. The purpose of this article is to critique three models or frameworks of campus health, articulate the World Health Organization (WHO) vision of a health-promoting university, and demonstrate the efficacy of adapting the Community Health Action model for use in university and college settings. Foundational within this proposed model is taking the right action using the right process, an inclusive participatory process.

Community Health Action Model: health promotion by the community.

The goal of the Community Health Action (CHA) model is to depict community health promotion processes in a manner that can be implemented by community members to achieve their collectively and collaboratively determined actions and outcomes to sustain or improve the health and well-being of their community; the community as a whole, for the benefit of all. The model is unique in its ability to merge the community development process with a compatible community assessment, planning, implementation, and evaluation framework. The CHA model supports community participation leading to community-engaged assessment and change.
