Intergenerational Adverse Childhood Experiences and Adolescent Migration Aspirations in Nicaragua.

Adolescents' aspirations are strong predictors of their future outcomes, including later migration experiences. Adversity also shapes aspirations for and decisions about the future. Adverse childhood experiences (ACEs) are measures of early exposure to adversity and may be associated with migration aspirations, though this relationship is understudied.

Hyaluronic Acid Hampers the Inflammatory Response Elicited by Extracellular Vesicles from Activated Monocytes in Human Chondrocytes.

Osteoarthritis (OA) is the most common joint disease in the adult population. OA is the result of multiple mechanisms leading to inflammation and the degradation of the cartilage. A complex series of etiological actors have been identified so far, including extracellular vesicles (EVs).

Chemometric modeling of spectroscopic data for characterizing the visible-light-driven photocatalytic N-dealkylation of rhodamine B on a TiO film.

The green-light driven photocatalytic N-deethylation reaction of Rhodamine B (RhB) on a TiO film was investigated by UV-vis absorption and fluorescence emission spectroscopies, in addition to HPLC and HR-MS, to ascertain the nature of the reaction products. The evolution of the photocatalytic reaction was chemometrically analyzed using Multivariate Curve Resolution-Alternating Least Squares (MCR-ALS) of the spectroscopic data to obtain the kinetic and spectral decomposition of the RhB derivatives involved in the reaction. This was then compared with the results obtained by standard HPLC analysis.

Revealing Intrinsic Functionalization, Structure, and Photo-Thermal Oxidation in Hexagonal Antimonene.

Antimonene is one of the more exciting members of the post-graphene family with promising applications in optoelectronics, energy storage and conversion, catalysis, sensing or biomedicine. Efforts have been focused on developing a large-scale production route, and indeed, through a colloidal approach, high-quality few-layers antimonene (FLA) hexagons have been recently obtained. However, their oxidation behavior remains unexplored, as well as their interface, inner structure, and photothermal properties.

COVID-19, school closures and the retreat from educational aspirations.

Introduction: As a shared external shock, the coronavirus pandemic (COVID-19) impacted health and well-being around the world. Mitigation strategies employed in many locations included school closures and travel restrictions. These strategies directly impacted educational access and opportunities and created economic stressors for families.
