This randomized controlled trial investigated the effectiveness of an online self-management program, "Take Charge of Burn Pain (TCBP)," for 96 individuals living with chronic burn pain. Participants were randomly assigned to either the 7-week TCBP program integrating cognitive-behavioral therapy techniques, pain education, and self-management strategies or an attention control group focused on general burn recovery information. Assessments conducted at baseline, post-treatment, and 2- and 5-month follow-ups included measures of pain severity, pain interference, pain self-efficacy, posttraumatic stress disorder symptoms, and depression.

Accurately predicting species mobilities in such systems is an important challenge for atomistic simulations. In this work, we investigate two organic liquid electrolytes: LiPF dissolved in (a) dimethyl carbonate (DMC) and (b) a mixture of DMC and ethylene carbonate (EC).
