Development and Psychometric Evaluation of the Sexual Life Quality Evaluation Tool for Patients With Coronary Heart Disease.

Purpose: Patients with coronary heart disease (CHD) will have a series of sexual problems, and their sexual life quality can be affected. However, a standardised evaluation tool for patients with CHD was lacking. Therefore, this study aimed to develop a sexual life quality questionnaire for patients with CHD and to evaluate its psychometric properties.

Sexual experience in patients with coronary heart disease: a descriptive phenomenological study.

Sex is an essential part of life and is a basic demand for human beings. Coronary heart disease can have an impact on patients' sexual lives; however, not much attention has been paid to it in China, and few studies have been conducted on this topic. Therefore, this study used a qualitative approach to understand the sexual experience of patients after the illness, thus laying the foundation for the development of relevant measures.

Charge transport dynamics of a CHNHCuBrI/TiO heterojunction in aqueous solution under reverse bias.

The photocurrent output of the CHNHCuBrI/TiO heterojunction photoelectrode in an aqueous solution is super stable even after 30 000 s. However, the photocurrent is extremely weak. Intensity-modulated photocurrent spectroscopy revealed that the electron transfer in the CHNHCuBrI/TiO photoelectrode without bias is not sufficiently fast to compete with the charge recombination process due to the short diffusion length (∼23 nm), resulting in a low photocurrent.

Alterations of fatty acid composition and metabolism in APP/PS1 transgenic mice.

Accumulating evidence suggests that abnormal fatty acid composition is related to the development of Alzheimer's disease (AD). However, there is no consistency in the fatty acid profile and metabolism associated with AD pathogenesis. This study aims to define the characteristics of fatty acid composition and metabolism in AD.
