Background: Community health centers (CHCs) are safety-net health care facilities in the United States that provide care for a substantial number of low-income, non-English speaking adults with type 2 diabetes (T2D). Whereas patient portals have been shown to be associated with significant improvements in diabetes self-management and outcomes, they remain underused in CHCs. In addition, little is known about the specific barriers to and facilitators of patient portal use in CHCs and strategies to address the barriers.

Article Synopsis
  • - The study used advanced computational methods to explore the electronic structure and properties of ClSOx (x = 1 and 2) isomers, revealing their equilibrium shapes and vibrational frequencies.
  • - It was found that ClSO is unstable under UV light below 280 nm, leading to reactions that produce atomic chlorine and sulfur dioxide (SO2), rather than diatomic ClS.
  • - The research identified a new weakly bound Cl-SO2 isomer and discussed its implications for reactions in Venus's atmosphere, suggesting links to the depletion of water (H2O) and SO2.

Acne is a common inflammatory condition of the skin worldwide. The skin is an endocrine organ and hormones are a key pathogenic factor in all types of acne with a particularly important role in adult female acne pathogenesis and management. In females, we have the unique opportunity to manipulate hormones systemically to successfully manage acne and, more recently with the approval of clascoterone 1% cream, we can target the hormones topically in both genders.
