Exploring Charge Redistribution at the Cu/CoSe Interface.

This study investigates the electronic interactions and charge redistribution at the dopant-support interface using a Cu/CoSe cluster construct. Specifically, the redox cluster series [CuCoSeL] ([-Cu]; = 0, -1, -2, -3; L = PhPNTol, Ph = phenyl, Tol = -tolyl) spanning four distinct oxidation states is synthesized and characterized using a multitude of techniques, including multinuclear NMR, UV-vis, XANES, and X-ray crystallography. Structural investigations indicate that the clusters are isostructural and chiral, adopting a pseudo- symmetry.

Considering Needle Phobia among Adult Patients During Mass COVID-19 Vaccinations.

As mass vaccination is underway to combat the COVID-19 pandemic and achieve herd immunity, healthcare professionals need to recognize the fear and phobia of needles among their patients. Approximately 11.5 to 66 million U.

Impact of antidepressant use on gastric bypass surgery patients' weight loss and health-related quality-of-life outcomes.

Background: Psychological factors may be predictive of post-surgical adjustment and successful outcomes in obesity-surgery populations.

Objective: The authors compared post-gastric bypass surgery (GBS) outcomes of patients being given active psychotropic treatment for depression, with those of patients without treatment or identifiable need for treatment at enrollment.

Method: Outcome measures included weight and repeated administration of the Medical Outcome Survey Short Form-36 (SF-36).

Plasma progesterone concentration depends on sampling site in pigs.

The objective of this study was to examine a possible difference in progesterone concentrations between the systemic venous blood and the caudal vena cava in early pregnant gilts. Nineteen crossbred pregnant gilts were offered three different regimens of feeding to examine influence of feeding on the secretion pattern of progesterone. The groups were high (H-H), low (L-L) and low-high (L-H) receiving 3.

Menangle and Nipah virus infections of pigs.

Viruses belonging to the family Paramyxoviridae generally have not been recognized as a significant cause of disease in pigs until recently. Between 1997 and 1999, there were large outbreaks of disease in pigs in Australia and Malaysia due to infection with viruses that have been shown to be new members of the Paramyxoviridae family. This article reviews current knowledge of Menangle and Nipah virus infections in pigs, the only major species of domestic animals to experience serious disease after infection with these viruses.
