Electrification and specialist training associated with decreased neonatal mortality and increased admissions in Sierra Leone.

Aim: The aim of this study was to describe the evolution of a regional neonatal service in Sierra Leone and changes in mortality and service use as it transitioned from a non-specialist service to a dedicated special care baby unit (SCBU).

Methods: This was a retrospective observational study. Anonymised data were taken from the ward admissions books at Bo Government Hospital, and trends in admissions and mortality within the neonatal service were examined for each stage of the department's evolution.

Insights from Ca→Sr substitution on the mechanism of O-O bond formation in photosystem II.

In recent years, there has been a steady interest in unraveling the intricate mechanistic details of water oxidation mechanism in photosynthesis. Despite the substantial progress made over several decades, a comprehensive understanding of the precise kinetics underlying O-O bond formation and subsequent evolution remains elusive. However, it is well-established that the oxygen evolving complex (OEC), specifically the CaMnO cluster, plays a crucial role in O-O bond formation, undergoing a series of four oxidative events as it progresses through the S-states of the Kok cycle.

Bystander defibrillation for out-of-hospital cardiac arrest in Ireland.

Aims: To describe and explore predictors of bystander defibrillation in Ireland during the period 2012 to 2020. To examine the relationship between bystander defibrillation and health system developments.

Methods: National level Out of Hospital Cardiac Arrest (OHCA) registry data were interrogated, focusing on patients who had defibrillation performed.

Health systems developments and predictors of bystander CPR in Ireland.

Aims: To explore predictors of bystander CPR (i.e. any CPR performed prior to EMS arrival) in Ireland over the period 2012-2020.

Rational Design of Improved Ru Containing Fe-Based Metal-Organic Framework (MOF) Photoanode for Artificial Photosynthesis.

Metal-Organic Frameworks (MOFs) recently emerged as a new platform for the realization of integrated devices for artificial photosynthesis. However, there remain few demonstrations of rational tuning of such devices for improved performance. Here, a fast molecular water oxidation catalyst working via water nucleophilic attack is integrated into the MOF MIL-142, wherein FeO nodes absorb visible light, leading to charge separation.
