Trends in Medical Students' Legal Concerns Regarding Abortion Care in the Wake of the 2022 Decision.

Objectives: The 2022 US Supreme Court decision dramatically shifted the legal landscape in health care, leaving state legislatures to redefine the ethics of medical practice. As gold-standard medical procedures become banned and criminalized, physicians are facing heightened legal uncertainty and grappling with moral dilemmas of where and how to practice. This study aimed to quantitatively assess trends in legal concern among medical students and identify correlations with decision making regarding future medical training.

Improving early diagnosis of multiple endocrine neoplasia type 1 by assessing the gastrointestinal symptoms, hypercalcemia, and elevated serum gastrin.

Despite advancements in the field, early diagnosis of multiple endocrine neoplasia type 1 (MEN1) remains unachievable. This letter to the editor highlighted the importance of carefully assessing gastrointestinal symptoms, hypercalcemia, and elevated serum gastrin levels, as suggested by Yuan in their paper. They focused on a patient with recurrent abdominal pain and diarrhea whose diagnostic path led to establishing a MEN1 diagnosis within a year.

3D self-assembled polar . non-polar NiO nanoparticles nanoengineered from turbostratic Ni(OH)(NO) and ordered β-Ni(OH) intermediates.

A surfactant-free ammonia and carbamide precursor-modulated engineering of self-assembled flower-like 3D NiO nanostructures based on ordered β-Ni(OH) and turbostratic Ni(OH)(NO) nanoplate-structured intermediates is reported. By employing complementary structural and spectroscopic techniques, fundamental insights into structural and chemical transformations from intermediates to NiO nanoparticles (NPs) are provided. FTIR, Raman and DSC analyses show that the transformation of intermediates to NiO NPs involves subsequent loss of NO and OH species through a double-step phase transformation at 306 and 326 °C corresponding to the loss of free interlayer ions and HO species, respectively, followed by the loss of chemically bonded OH and NO ions.

Hydrogel Cross-Linking via Thiol-Reactive Pyridazinediones.

Thiol-reactive Michael acceptors are commonly used for the formation of chemically cross-linked hydrogels. In this paper, we address the drawbacks of many Michael acceptors by introducing pyridazinediones as new cross-linking agents. Through the use of pyridazinediones and their mono- or dibrominated analogues, we show that the mechanical strength, swelling ratio, and rate of gelation can all be controlled in a pH-sensitive manner.

Impact of NiCoO/SrTiO p-n Heterojunctions on the Interface of Photoelectrochemical Water Oxidation.

Forming semiconductor heterojunctions is a promising strategy to boost the efficiency of solar-driven photoelectrochemical (PEC) water splitting by accelerating the separation and transport of photogenerated charge carriers via an interfacial electric field. However, there is limited research considering the influence of electrolytes on the band alignment of the heterojunction under PEC conditions. In this work, we use a single crystal NiCoO/SrTiO (NCO/STO) heterojunction with atomic-precision controlled thickness as a model photoelectrode to study the band structure modulations upon getting in contact with the electrolyte and the correlation with the PEC activity.
