Background And Objective: Family-centered care (FCC) is a mutually beneficial healthcare approach focusing on collaborative planning, delivery, and evaluation involving healthcare providers, patients, and families. The FCC approach, despite its widespread application in diverse medical contexts, encounters significant barriers in its integration into clinical practice, particularly in the management of novel coronavirus pneumonia (NCP). This review aims to explore the current state of research on and factors influencing the family-centered clinical model of care, and to reveal the challenges and coping strategies encountered by this model in NCP-like health crises.

Article Synopsis
  • The study aimed to explore the links between maternal dietary choices in early pregnancy and the risk of developing gestational diabetes mellitus (GDM), as well as how a diagnosis of GDM affects dietary habits and pregnancy outcomes.
  • This prospective cohort study involved participants with singleton pregnancies, collecting dietary data at three stages of gestation and tracking GDM diagnosis through medical records.
  • Results showed that certain dietary habits, like higher intake of livestock meat in the second trimester, increased GDM risk, while individuals with GDM tended to change their diets later in pregnancy, impacting outcomes like weight gain and fetal size.

Dental trauma is highly prevalent in children and adolescents, alongside tooth decay. This condition mainly induces pulp contamination, pulp necrosis, and tooth avulsion in the clinical context. The disturbance to root growth is prone to occur in immature permanent teeth.

Article Synopsis
  • Brucella spp. is a type of bacteria that has a special protein called DeoR1, which helps it survive inside cells, but how it works is still a mystery.
  • Scientists created a mutant version of the bacteria to see what happens when DeoR1 is missing, and found that this mutant was less able to survive in lab tests with mouse cells and actual mice.
  • They discovered 135 genes that were affected by the missing DeoR1, many of which help with things like making energy and moving stuff inside the bacteria, which helps explain how DeoR1 is important for Brucella to be harmful.

Background: Insulin has been known to regulate bone metabolism, yet its specific molecular mechanisms during the proliferation and osteogenic differentiation of dental pulp stem cells (DPSCs) remain poorly understood. This study aimed to explore the effects of insulin on the bone formation capability of human DPSCs and to elucidate the underlying mechanisms.

Methods: Cell proliferation was assessed using a CCK-8 assay.

T-2 toxin is one of the naturally dangerous food contaminants, which is harmful to people and animals. Because of its strong toxicity and wide distribution, it is vital to develop a rapid and effective method for the detection of T-2 toxin. Herein, an excellent hydrogel surface-enhanced Raman scattering (SERS) chip is constructed for developing a novel SERS sensor to detect T-2 toxin using a portable Raman spectrometer.

Article Synopsis
  • * Research revealed that an increased expression of the senescence marker gene P53 in DOP hJBMMSCs leads to significant cellular aging, negatively impacting their ability to support bone regeneration.
  • * Targeting the P53 gene could restore the osteogenic differentiation ability in DOP hJBMMSCs, suggesting that controlling senescence may provide new treatment strategies for diabetic bone metabolic diseases.

Triple ionic and electronic conductivity (TIEC) in cathode materials for protonic ceramic fuel cells (PCFCs) is a desirable feature that enhances the spatial expansion of active reaction sites for electrochemical oxygen reduction reaction. The realization of optimal TIEC in single-phase materials, however, is challenging. A facile route that facilitates the optimization of TIEC in PCFC cathodes is the strategic development of multiphase cathode materials.

Background: Dental pulp stem cells (DPSCs) refer to a type of stem cells, which is characterized by great differentiation potential and is easy to obtain. DPSCs are able to be employed for treating immune diseases and tissue regeneration. However, the differentiation ability exhibited by aging DPSCs is reduced, thereby limiting the application.

Zn-air batteries (ZABs) are very promising for flexible energy storage, but their application is limited to the primary battery. Developing an efficient and non-noble metal cathode toward oxygen reduction/evolution reactions (ORR/OER) is of great significance for the commercial application of rechargeable ZABs. Herein, a flexible self-supported integrated bifunctional cathode is presented in which the Co-N-C nanoparticles are in situ anchored on Co N nanosheets via a facile and scalable strategy.

The electrochemical oxygen evolution reaction (OER) is of great significance for energy conversion and storage. The hybrid strategy is attracting increasing interest for the development of highly active OER electrocatalysts. Regarding the activity enhancement mechanism, electron coupling between two phases in hybrids has been widely reported, but the interfacial elemental redistribution is rarely investigated.

The semiconductor/electrolyte interface plays a crucial role in photoelectrochemical (PEC) water-splitting devices as it determines both thermodynamic and kinetic properties of the photoelectrode. Interfacial engineering is central for the device performance improvement. Taking the cheap and stable hematite (α-FeO) wormlike nanostructure photoanode as a model system, we design a facile sacrificial interlayer approach to suppress the crystal overgrowth and realize Ti doping into the crystal lattice of α-FeO in one annealing step as well as to avoid the consequent anodic shift of the photocurrent onset potential, ultimately achieving five times increase in its water oxidation photocurrent compared to the bare hematite by promoting the transport of charge carriers, including both separation of photogenerated charge carriers within the bulk semiconductor and transfer of holes across the semiconductor-electrolyte interface.

A vibration monitoring system based on light intensity measurement has been constructed, and the designed accelerometer is based on steel cantilever frame and dual fiber Bragg gratings (FBGs). By using numerical simulations for the dual FBGs, the dependence relationship of the area of main lobes on the difference of initial central wavelengths is obtained and the most optimal choice for the initial value and the vibration amplitude of the difference of central wavelengths of two FBGs is suggested. The vibration monitoring experiments are finished, and the measured data are identical to the simulated results.
