The aftermath of multiple trauma on a nation: unraveling Lebanon's unique mental health struggle.

Objective: This study examines the national prevalence of mental health disorders and their associated factors in Lebanon, specifically in the aftermath of the 2020 events, including the catastrophic events of Beirut blast and the concurrent financial meltdown amid the global pandemic.

Methods: Conducted between July and September 2022, the study interviewed a nationally representative sample of 1,000 Lebanese via telephone, using the Computer Assisted Telephone Interview (CATI) system. Gender-specific bivariate and multivariate models were generated for probable posttraumatic stress disorder (PTSD), depression, and anxiety.

A Dynamic Active Site for OER Catalysis at Nickel-Vanadium-Phosphide Depends on V Surface Position and Fe in Alkaline.

Enhancing the rate of the oxygen evolution reaction (OER) by doping Ni-based electrocatalysts with guest metals other than Fe (V in this work) and the stability of the metal site should be assessed independent of Fe traces and in relation to the guest metal activity in solution. We examined OER catalysis and its sustainability at vanadium-doped nickel phosphide (NiP-V) independent of the role of Fe traces in alkaline. V was included in NiP by codeposition at cathodic bias (termed V) or postdeposition during the phosphide-to-hydroxide surface transformation at anodic bias in alkaline spiked with VCl (termed V).

Current status and perceived challenges of collaborative research in a leading pharmacy college in Iraq: a qualitative study.

Background: Interdisciplinary collaboration among academic pharmacists is crucial for enhancing scientific research, discovering new drugs and modifying existing ones, besides solving pharmaceutical problems. This study aimed to explore the perception and experience of academic pharmacists regarding research collaboration.

Methods: A qualitative study through one-to-one face-to-face interviews with faculty members at the University of Baghdad/College of Pharmacy was conducted from May to July/2023.

Exploring the Impact of Minor Water Content on Polymer Electrolytes with Molecular Dynamics.

Solid-state polymer electrolytes (SPEs) are increasingly favored over liquid electrolytes for emerging energy storage devices due to their safety features, enhanced stability, and multifunctionality. Minor solvents (such as water) are often introduced unintentionally or intentionally into SPEs. Although it can significantly affect SPEs' electrochemical and mechanical properties, the fundamental role of such solvent content has rarely been studied.

Pharmacological or genetic inhibition of LTCC promotes cardiomyocyte proliferation through inhibition of calcineurin activity.

Cardiomyocytes (CMs) lost during ischemic cardiac injury cannot be replaced due to their limited proliferative capacity. Calcium is an important signal transducer that regulates key cellular processes, but its role in regulating CM proliferation is incompletely understood. Here we show a robust pathway for new calcium signaling-based cardiac regenerative strategies.
