- Researchers have developed a new method to create triangular lignin nanoparticles (LNPs), improving on traditional spherical shapes, for potential use in optical applications.
- This green technique employs solvent shifting and acid precipitation, allowing for controlled structural changes in the nanoparticles.
- The resulting LNPs exhibit good hydrophobic properties, excellent UV-blocking efficiency, and long-term stability in aqueous suspensions, making them promising for applications like sunscreen.
Objective: The objective of this trial was to determine the feasibility, acceptability, and preliminary effectiveness of sharing audio recordings of primary care visits with older adults with multimorbidity.
Methods: We used a two-arm, randomized, controlled, feasibility trial with 3-month follow-up. Patients aged ≥ 65 years-with diabetes and hypertension-were recruited from academic primary care settings in New Hampshire, Tennessee, and Texas.
Article Synopsis
- The study evaluated trends and disparities in antiretroviral therapy (ART) prescription rates among US Medicare enrollees with HIV from 2007 to 2019.
- It found that while overall ART prescriptions increased, certain groups, particularly females and younger or older patients, had lower prescription rates.
- Key factors contributing to lower ART use included race, multimorbidity (conditions like dementia and substance use), and lack of financial assistance through Part D, highlighting the need for further research to address these disparities.
