Mandarin Chinese Translation and Cultural Adaptation of the Caregiver Analysis of Reported Experiences With Swallowing Disorders Screening Tool.

Purpose: The caregiver burden of individuals with dysphagia is a major concern. Currently, assessment tools specifically designed for this population are lacking. The present study aimed to translate the Caregiver Analysis of Reported Experiences with Swallowing Disorders (CARES) Questionnaire into Mandarin Chinese and evaluate its psychometric properties.

Association between pre-stroke frailty and post-discharge destination in acute stroke among Chinese older adults.

Aims: To investigate the association between pre-stroke frailty and discharge destination in hospitalized older adults in China.

Methods: We conducted this prospective cohort study in a tertiary care hospital in China. We enrolled patients aged 60 years and older admitted to the hospital for acute stroke from January 2022 to May 2022.

Chlorine-Doped SnO2 Nanoflowers on Nickel Hollow Fiber for Enhanced CO2 Electroreduction at Ampere-level Current Densities.

Renewable energy-driven electrochemical CO2 reduction has emerged as a promising technology for a sustainable future. However, achieving efficient production of storable liquid fuels at ampere-level current densities remains a significant hurdle in the large-scale implementation of CO2 electroreduction. Here we report a novel catalytic electrode comprising chlorine-doped SnO2 nanoflowers arrayed on the exterior of three-dimensional nickel hollow fibers.

Cytotoxic activity of C polyacetylenes from the roots of Glehnia littoralis against drug-resistant colorectal and lung cancer cells.

In the preliminary screening, falcarinol and falcarindiol, C polyacetylenes from the roots of Glehnia littoralis F. Schmidt ex Miq (Umbelliferae), displayed cytotoxic activity both against oxaliplatin-sensitive/resistant colorectal cancer (CRC) and gefitinib-sensitive/resistant non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC) cells. In this study, 13 polyacetylenes including a new (3R,11R)-11-hyroxy-isofalcarinolone (1) were isolated from G.

Glucuronoxylomannan (GXM) modulates macrophage proliferation and apoptosis through the STAT1 signaling pathway.

cryptococcus neoformans (C. neoformans) is a crucial opportunistic fungus that possesses an encapsulated fungal pathogen. The cryptococcal capsule is mainly composed of the polysaccharide glucuronoxylomannan (GXM).
