Introduction: Wheelchair training is pivotal for safety, independence, and occupational engagement in the community, yet adults coming into wheelchair use often receive insufficient or untailored training. This research aimed to understand the range and type of manual wheelchair training approaches that exist for adults commencing wheelchair use.
Method: A systematic scoping review involved searching eight electronic databases and grey literature up to September 2023.
The superlattice obtained by aligning a monolayer graphene and boron nitride (BN) inherits from the hexagonal lattice a sixty degrees periodicity with the layer alignment. It implies that, in principle, the properties of the heterostructure must be identical for 0° and 60° of layer alignment. Here, we demonstrate, using dynamically rotatable van der Waals heterostructures, that the moiré superlattice formed in a bilayer graphene/BN has different electronic properties at 0° and 60° of alignment.

- The study aims to evaluate the effectiveness of various assessment tools for measuring pain interference in children, adolescents, and adults with chronic pain who cannot self-report their pain.
- A comprehensive search was conducted across multiple databases to find relevant studies, culminating in an analysis of 10 different pain assessment tools based on 33 articles.
- The findings suggest that while the Paediatric Pain Profile is the best option for younger individuals, there is a lack of reliable tools for adults, with some promising options needing further research.
Rationale & Objective: We sought to elicit patient preferences regarding the use of plasma exchange in antineutrophil cytoplasmic antibody-associated vasculitis (AAV) and its tradeoffs of risk of kidney failure and risk of serious infection.
Study Design: Patient survey.
Setting & Participants: The online survey was circulated to adults with AAV via kidney and vasculitis networks in Canada, the United Kingdom, and the United States.
