The Influence of Illness Perception and Coping on Anxiety in Adults With Congenital Heart Disease.

Background: Up to one-half of adults with congenital heart disease (CHD) experience psychological distress, including anxiety.

Objectives: This paper sought to: 1) assess the contribution of illness perception in explaining anxiety symptoms beyond sociodemographic and medical variables in adults with CHD; and 2) investigate the potential mediating effect of coping style.

Methods: CHD adult patients were recruited at Montreal Heart Institute between June 2019 and April 2021 for this cross-sectional study.

The Relationship Between Perceived Parenting Practices and Anxiety in Adults With Congenital Heart Disease.

Background: Patients with congenital heart disease (CHD) and their parents face challenges throughout their lives that can lead to anxiety lasting into adulthood. We aim to assess the association between perceived parenting practices and anxiety beyond paediatric medical-surgical histories in adults with CHD.

Methods: A cross-sectional study of adults with CHD was conducted at the Montreal Heart Institute (MHI).

How social background and interest in science are linked to junior high school students' perceptions of the ecological transition.

Junior high school students are tomorrow's key protagonists in the ecological transition. They need enlightened education to face the uncertainty and challenges of climate change. The development of climate change education programs requires a clear understanding of how young people perceive the issue.

Biochar from waste biomass, its fundamentals, engineering aspects, and potential applications: an overview.

Environmental pollution control in the growing world is a challenging task for all the countries in order to keep the environmental sustainability. Biochar, a processed carbon material, draws a significant attention in the field of environmental remediation, as of its active functional groups that help remove environmental pollutants to a level insignificant to cause hazardous effects. As such, there is an increasing interest developed to promote highly productive biochar for exploring environmental engineering aspects.

Adsorptive behavior of engineered biochar /hydrochar for tetracycline removal from synthetic wastewater.

In this research, engineered biochar and hydrochar derived from paddy husk were compared for the adsorption tetracycline (TC) in water effluents. Biochar was produced at three different pyrolysis temperatures (e.g.
