The CoNi@C/MoC i-MXene Derived from Novel (MoR)GaC (R = Dy, Ho, Er, Tm, and Lu) Nanolaminations for Electrochemical Application in Electrocatalytic Hydrogen Evolution and Supercapacitance.

2D MoC i-MXene is highly promising for electrochemical applications. Here, a synthetic strategy is reported, enabling the uniform distribution of carbon-coated CoNi (CoNi@C) nanoparticles on the vacancy-ordered MoC i-MXene nanosheets, thereby fully exposing the active sites of CoNi@C. First, five novel Ga-containing (MoR)GaC (R = Dy, Ho, Er, Tm, and Lu) i-MAX phases are synthesized as the precursor and found to be crystallized into Cmcm structure, followed by hydrothermal etching and delamination.

Home-based end-of-life care for people with dementia: A systematic review of quantitative and qualitative evidence.

Integrating home-based end-of-life care for people with dementia will become increasingly important as the population ages. Therefore, it is timely and necessary to evaluate the evidence of home-based end-of-life care for people living with dementia. This review aims to identify the characteristics of home-based end-of-life care interventions for people living with dementia and review the existing evidence on implementation outcomes.

Proposal of the Implementation Theory Selection Model and exemplar application in fall injury prevention.

Introduction: The use of theories, models and/or frameworks (TMFs) in implementation research and practice is essential for developing useful and testable implementation strategies. Recommendations and tools exist to aid implementation groups in selecting TMFs, but they do not explicitly outline a systematic method for identifying and selecting TMFs. This paper aimed to (1) propose a systematic consensus-based method to select TMFs to support implementation processes, and to (2) demonstrate the use of this novel method in the context of researching the implementation of hip protectors for fracture prevention in long-term care (LTC).

Can the Ability to Play Steady Beats Be Indicative of Cognitive Aging? Using a Beat Processing Device.

This study aimed to examine whether different rhythm idioms significantly affect the reproduction accuracy of older adults and whether the participants' age and personal current engagement in music affect their ability to reproduce rhythm. A total of 79 older adults participated in the study. Participants were required to reproduce six different rhythm idioms, and their accuracy in rhythm reproduction was measured using the R index.

Development of lipopeptide-based HIV-1/2 fusion inhibitors targeting the gp41 pocket site with a new design strategy.

Emerging studies demonstrate that lipid conjugation is a vital strategy for designing peptide-based viral fusion inhibitors, and the so-called lipopeptides exhibit greatly improved antiviral activity. In the design of lipopeptides, a flexible linker between the peptide sequence and lipid molecule is generally required, mostly with a short polyethylene glycol or glycine-serine sequence. Very recently, we discovered that the helix-facilitating amino acid sequence "EAAAK" as a rigid linker is a more efficient method in the design of SARS-CoV-2 fusion inhibitory lipopeptides.
