Global climate change and its impact on the distribution and efficacy of Bacillus thuringiensis as a biopesticide.

This study is the first modeling exercise to assess the impacts of climate change on the current and future global distribution of Bacillus thuringiensis (Bt). Bt is a common Gram-positive, rod-shaped bacterium widely distributed in various environments, including soil and water. It is widely recognized as a source of effective and safe agricultural biopesticides for pest management in various climatic regions globally.

The relationship between delivery fear and childbirth experience with the level of adherence to the WHO recommendations for a positive childbirth experience in Iranian women: a cross-sectional study.

Background: Childbirth experience is a unique event that involves psychological and physiological aspects influenced by social, environmental, organizational, and political factors. In 2018, the World Health Organization (WHO) introduced 56 recommendations for ensuring a positive childbirth experience at different stages of labor and delivery. Owing to the importance of implementing these guidelines, we have chosen to assess adherence to the WHO recommendations and their association with the fear and experience of childbirth.

Demystifying Trion Emission in CdSe Nanoplatelets.

At cryogenic temperatures, the photoluminescence spectrum of CdSe nanoplatelets (NPLs) usually consists of multiple emission lines, the origin of which is still under debate. While there seems to be consensus that both neutral excitons and trions contribute to the NPL emission, the prominent role of trions is rather puzzling. In this work, we demonstrate that Förster resonant energy transfer in stacks of NPLs combined with hole trap states in specific NPLs within the stack trigger trion formation, while single NPL spectra are dominated by neutral excitonic emission.

Unlocking the Potential of the HEART Pathway: Predicting MACE and Facilitating Nurse-Physician Collaboration in Chest Pain Unit.

Background And Objective: The HEART pathway serves as a tool for predicting major adverse cardiac events (MACE) among patients presenting with acute chest pain, aiding in early discharge of low-risk patients and reducing unnecessary cardiac investigations. This study aimed to evaluate physician-nurse reliability of the HEART pathway. Moreover investigates the efficacy of HEART pathway to predict 3-month MACE in patients with acute chest pain.
