Article Synopsis
- The demand for graphene-related 2D materials (GR2Ms) is increasing, so the industry needs reliable, easy-to-use quality measurement methods for production.
- The paper highlights the use of hydrogen nuclear magnetic resonance (NMR) relaxation and Raman spectroscopy as effective techniques for real-time quality monitoring of GR2Ms.
- NMR relaxation can deliver results in under a minute, while Raman spectroscopy offers continuous data collection during production, improving overall quality control compared to traditional lab methods.
Context: Multisector community partnerships play a pivotal role in public health strategy for understanding and addressing social determinants of health (SDOH) and promoting health equity. The work of these partnerships is well aligned with building community resilience.
Program: The Year 2 Improving Social Determinants of Health-Getting Further Faster (GFF) retrospective evaluation was designed to gather practice-based evidence that can inform future community-driven partnerships to improve chronic disease outcomes and advance health equity by addressing social determinants of health (SDOH).
Article Synopsis
- The Communities That HEAL (CTH) intervention aimed to boost naloxone distribution in communities severely affected by opioid overdoses compared to standard care.
- A study involving 67 communities in Kentucky, Massachusetts, New York, and Ohio revealed that naloxone distribution was significantly higher (79% more) in the CTH intervention group than in the usual care group over a year of monitoring.
- The findings suggest that the CTH intervention effectively increased naloxone distribution, supporting its role in reducing opioid-related overdose deaths.
Multisector community partnerships (MCPs) are a key element of the public health approach to addressing social determinants of health (SDOH). The Improving SDOH-Getting Further Faster (GFF) retrospective evaluation of MCP-driven SDOH interventions was designed to generate practice-based evidence that can help guide partnerships' efforts to improve chronic disease outcomes and advance health equity by addressing SDOH. This article shares Year 2 GFF findings related to sustainability strategies for partnerships focused on SDOH and their interventions.

Dashboards can be an evidence-based approach used by communities to influence decision-making in health care for specific populations. Despite widespread use, evidence on how to best design and use dashboards in the public health realm is limited.
