Published: January 2002

The "Work Personality Profile", which assesses via supervisor ratings the basic work competences of psychiatric patients on eleven scales, was translated and adapted for use in German psychiatric institutions. Test analysis of data of 58 patients, most of whom were schizophrenic, yielded good statistical indicators for most of the scales. Factor analyses indicated a structure of two to three components: Learning ability, social and interactional competence, and social adaptation and motivation. Test analyses yielded good coefficience for most of the scales. Further clinical application of the instrument thus seems to be promising. Recommendations for use of a short version are given.

Podophyllotoxin, along with its numerous derivatives and related compounds, is well known for its broad-spectrum pharmacological activity, especially for anticancer potential. In this study, several isatin-podophyllotoxin hybrid compounds were successfully synthesized with good yields through microwave-prompted three-component reactions of 2-amino-1,4-naphthoquinone, various substituted isatins, and tetronic acid. Their cytotoxicity was assessed against four types of human cancer cell lines, HepG2 (hepatoma carcinoma), MCF7 (breast cancer), A549 (non-small lung cancer), and KB (epidermoid carcinoma), alongside nontumorigenic HEK-293 human embryonic kidney cells.

While CuS/TiO₂ has been previously synthesized and employed in a limited number of photodegradation studies, the current study investigated its effectiveness for TC degradation under UV-visible light irradiation. CuS is known to be a nontoxic, environmentally friendly material; hence, it has great potential as an alternative to CdS and CdSe, which are used conventionally as sensitizers. In this work, the CuS/TiO₂ photocatalysts achieved a maximum 95 % removal of TC at an initial concentration of 20 ppm, confirming the good utilization of active sites.

Accurate estimation of the change in crime over time is a critical first step toward better understanding of public safety in large urban environments. Bayesian hierarchical modeling is a natural way to study spatial variation in urban crime dynamics at the neighborhood level, since it facilitates principled "sharing of information" between spatially adjacent neighborhoods. Typically, however, cities contain many physical and social boundaries that may manifest as spatial discontinuities in crime patterns.

Research on water splitting is paramount for developing low-carbon alternative energy sources. Nevertheless, creating an efficient, cost-effective, and bifunctional electrocatalyst that facilitates both the oxygen evolution reaction (OER) and the hydrogen evolution reaction (HER) remains an elusive goal. In this work, we report a novel hybrid nanostructured electrocatalyst by combining and pyrolyzing MXene, MIL-53(Fe), and ZIF-67.

Background: To investigate the changes of b2-microglobulin and electrolyte in different stages of chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD) and the value of evaluating prognosis.

Methods: A retrospective study was undertaken on 120 patients diagnosed with COPD and treated at our respiratory department between February 1, 2020, and January 31, 2023. These patients were classified into three groups based on the GOLD classification: mild (FEV1 > 81%), moderate (51% < FEV1 ≤ 80%), and severe (FEV1 ≤ 50%).
