Exploring the feasibility of a mental health application (JoyPop) for Indigenous youth.

Objective: The purpose of the current study was to explore the acceptability and feasibility of a resilience-focused mobile application, JoyPop™, for use with Indigenous youth.

Methods: A Haudenosaunee community-based research advisory committee co-developed the research project, in accordance with OCAP™ principles. Adopting a mixed-method approach, five youths from an immersion school used the JoyPop™ app for four consecutive weeks, as well as completed pre-test questions and weekly usage surveys.

Successful Treatment of Bilateral Renal Mucormycosis With Isavuconazole: A Case Report.

Isolated renal mucormycosis (IRM) is a rare disease with high mortality, more commonly seen in immunocompromised patients. Management has traditionally included antifungal drugs with or without nephrectomy. We present the case of a 34-year-old female with a past medical history of type 1 diabetes mellitus and intravenous heroin use who presented with fever, flank pain, hematuria, and vomiting.

Reintervention and mortality risk after total anomalous pulmonary venous connection repair.

Background: Management of total anomalous pulmonary venous connections has been extensively studied to further improve outcomes. Our institution previously reported factors associated with mortality, recurrent obstruction, and reintervention. The study purpose was to revisit the cohort of patients and evaluate factors associated with reintervention, and mortality in early and late follow-up.

Selective deuteration along a polyethylene chain: Differentiating conformation segment by segment.

To improve the circularity and performance of polyolefin materials, recent innovations have enabled the synthesis of polyolefins with new structural features such as cleavable breakpoints, functional chain ends, and unique comonomers. As new polyolefin structures become synthetically accessible, fundamental understanding of the effects of structural features on polymer (re)processing and mechanical performance is increasingly important. While material properties are readily measured through conventional thermal or mechanical techniques, selective measurement of material properties near structural defects is a major characterization challenge.
