Social support as a mediator of the relationship between forgiveness and post-traumatic growth in hemodialysis patients: A structural equation modeling approach.

Background: Post-traumatic growth (PTG) refers to the positive psychological changes experienced with individuals after struggling with highly challenging life circumstances. Forgiveness can facilitate positive outcomes such as reduced distress, anxiety, and depression. Many studies have tested the relationships among forgiveness, social support, and PTG; however, a mechanism of social support has not been completely explored in hemodialysis patients.

Layer-by-Layer Self-assembly of CoO Nanorod-Decorated MoS Nanosheet-Based Nanocomposite toward High-Performance Ammonia Detection.

This article is the first demonstration of a molybdenum disulfide (MoS)/tricobalt tetraoxide (CoO) nanocomposite film sensor toward NH detection. The MoS/CoO film sensor was fabricated on a substrate with interdigital electrodes via layer-by-layer self-assembly route. The surface morphology, nanostructure, and elemental composition of the MoS/CoO samples were examined by scanning electron microscopy, transmission electron microscopy, X-ray diffraction, energy-dispersive spectrometry, and X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy.

Facile Fabrication of MoS2-Modified SnO2 Hybrid Nanocomposite for Ultrasensitive Humidity Sensing.

An ultrasensitive humidity sensor based on molybdenum-disulfide- (MoS2)-modified tin oxide (SnO2) nanocomposite has been demonstrated in this work. The nanostructural, morphological, and compositional properties of an as-prepared MoS2/SnO2 nanocomposite were characterized by scanning electron microscopy (SEM), transmission electron microscopy (TEM), X-ray diffraction (XRD), energy dispersive spectrometry (EDS), nitrogen sorption analysis, and Raman spectroscopy, which confirmed its successful preparation and rationality. The sensing characteristics of the MoS2/SnO2 hybrid film device against relative humidity (RH) were investigated at room temperature.

Air-Stable Black Phosphorus Devices for Ion Sensing.

Black phosphorus (BP) is one of the most attractive graphene analogues, and its properties make it a promising nanomaterial for chemical sensing. However, mono- and few-layer BP flakes are reported to chemically degrade rapidly upon exposure to ambient conditions. Therefore, little is known about the performance and sensing mechanism of intrinsic BP, and chemical sensing of intrinsic BP with acceptable air stability remains only theoretically explored.
