Tuning the Electronic Properties of CuAg Bimetallic Clusters for Enhanced CO Activation.

The urgent demand for efficient CO reduction technologies has driven enormous studies into the enhancement of advanced catalysts. Here, we investigate the electronic properties and CO adsorption properties of CuAg bimetallic clusters, particularly CuAg, CuAg, CuAg, and CuAg, using generalized gradient approximation (GGA)/density functional theory (DFT). Our results show that the atomic arrangement within these clusters drastically affects their stability, charge transfer, and catalytic performance.

Acute psoriasis exacerbation by recombinant zoster vaccine: a case report.

Psoriasis is a common chronic inflammatory skin disorder that primarily affects the skin, nails, and joints. Beyond its cutaneous manifestations, psoriasis is associated with several systemic comorbidities. Various factors can trigger or exacerbate psoriasis, including stress, infections, medications, and vaccinations.

Orientational Effects and Molecular-Scale Thermoelectricity Control.

The orientational effect concept in a molecular-scale junction is established for asymmetric junctions, which requires the fulfillment of two conditions: (1) design of an asymmetric molecule with strong distinct terminal end groups and (2) construction of a doubly asymmetric junction by placing an asymmetric molecule in an asymmetric junction to form a multicomponent system such as Au/Zn-TPP+M/Au. Here, we demonstrate that molecular-scale junctions that satisfy the conditions of these effects can manifest Seebeck coefficients whose sign fluctuates depending on the orientation of the molecule within the asymmetric junction in a complete theoretical investigation. Three anthracene-based compounds are investigated in three different scenarios, one of which displays a bithermoelectric behavior due to the presence of strong anchor groups, including and .

Investigating the Electronic Properties and Stability of Rh Clusters on Rutile TiO for Potential Photocatalytic Applications.

Addressing the pressing needs for alternatives to fossil fuel-based energy sources, this research explores the intricate interplay between Rhodium (Rh) clusters and titanium dioxide (TiO) to improve photocatalytic water splitting for the generation of eco-friendly hydrogen. This research applies the density functional theory (DFT) coupled with the Hartree-Fock theory to meticulously examine the structural and electronic structures of Rh clusters on TiO (110) interfaces. Considering the photocatalytic capabilities of TiO and its inherent limitations in harnessing visible light, the potential for metals such as Rh clusters to act as co-catalysts is assessed.

Prevalence and Causes of Stigmatization Among Patients With Chronic Skin Diseases in Saudi Arabia.

Background: Skin diseases can lead to stigmatization with negative consequences for patients' quality of life and mental health.

Aim: The aim of this study was to estimate the prevalence of stigmatization experienced by patients with vitiligo, psoriasis, acne, rosacea, or atopic dermatitis and to assess the relationships between the level of stigmatization and patient characteristics.

Methods: This cross-sectional study included adult patients with vitiligo, psoriasis, acne, rosacea, or atopic dermatitis attending the dermatology clinics of various general hospitals in Saudi Arabia.

Geometrical Stabilities and Electronic Structures of Ru Clusters on Rutile TiO for Green Hydrogen Production.

In response to the vital requirement for renewable energy alternatives, this research delves into the complex interactions between ruthenium (Ru) clusters and rutile titanium dioxide (TiO) (110) interfaces, with the aim of enhancing photocatalytic water splitting processes to produce environmentally friendly hydrogen. As the world shifts away from traditional fossil fuels, this study utilizes the density functional theory (DFT) and the HSE06 hybrid functional to thoroughly assess the geometric and electronic properties of Ru clusters on rutile TiO (110) surfaces. Given TiO's renown role as a photocatalyst and its limitations in visible light absorption, this research investigates the potential of metals like Ru to serve as additional catalysts.

Lichen Planopilaris As Part of Multiple Autoimmune Syndrome: A Case Report of New Association.

Lichen planopilaris (LPP) is an uncommon inflammatory scalp condition. Its typical clinical presentation includes scaly, erythematous plaques resulting in irreversible alopecia. In this study, we report a female in her late 30s with hypothyroidism and Crohn's disease.

Geometrical Stabilities and Electronic Structures of Rh Nanoclusters on Rutile TiO (110) for Green Hydrogen Production.

Addressing the urgent need for sustainable energy sources, this study investigates the intricate relationship between rhodium (Rh) nanoclusters and TiO rutile (110) surfaces, aiming to advance photocatalytic water splitting for green hydrogen production. Motivated by the imperative to transition from conventional fossil fuels, this study employs density functional theory (DFT) with DFT-D3 and HSE06 hybrid functionals to analyse the geometrical stabilities and electronic structures of Rh nanoclusters on TiO rutile (110). TiO, a prominent photocatalyst, faces challenges such as limited visible light absorption, leading researchers to explore noble metals like Rh as cocatalysts.

Drug-Induced Reaction With Eosinophilia and Systemic Symptoms: A Review.

Drug-induced reaction with eosinophilia and systemic symptoms (DRESS) is a part of severe cutaneous adverse reactions (SCAR), often a life-threatening condition. DRESS is an uncommon reaction; however, it is more prevalent than Stevens-Johnson syndrome/toxic epidermal necrolysis (SJS/TEN) and is left undiagnosed due to its atypical clinical presentation. So far, no standard criteria or investigational tool assists in early and accurate diagnosis.

Non-Venereal Sclerosing Lymphangitis of the Penis in a 35-Year-Old Saudi Male: A Case Report.

Sclerosing lymphangitis is a rare penile lesion characterized by a cord-like, firm swelling at the penile coronal sulcus. It affects males between the ages of 30 and 40 and usually resolves spontaneously. Due to the rarity of this condition, we decided to report this case.

Establishment of an Accelerated Doctor of Family Medicine Program at Unaizah College of Medicine, Qassim University, Kingdom of Saudi Arabia.

Primary health care is well known to be the cornerstone for the health of the society. Furthermore, efficient health care at the secondary and tertiary levels is entirely dependent on effective primary health care. The Kingdom of Saudi Arabia (KSA) is currently building up a rigorous primary health care system with a large number of well-equipped primary health care centers.
