Solid state deuteron magic angle spinning nuclear magnetic resonance spectra of conductive ring-deuterated polyaniline consist of two peaks, one at the same chemical shift as the insulating form of the polymer and the second shifted by 5.8+/-1 ppm. The magnitude of the shift is field and temperature independent and is identified as a Knight shift. The deuterons undergoing a Knight shift originate from both the crystalline and amorphous regions of the sample, implying that conduction is mediated by delocalized polarons in both these regions. Spin count experiments demonstrate that in highly conductive samples, signal is lost not only by dephasing due to the proximity of localized unpaired electrons but also to high rf reflectance.

Gastrointestinal helminths interact with the gut microbiota in ways that shape microbiota structure and function, but these effects are highly inconsistent across studies. One factor that may help explain variation in parasite-microbiota interactions is host sex since helminths can induce sex-specific changes in feeding behaviour and diet that might cascade to shape gut microbial communities. We tested this idea using an anthelmintic treatment experiment in wild Grant's gazelles (Nanger granti).

Objective: Recent work has bolstered the possibility that peripheral changes may be relevant to Alzheimer's disease pathogenesis in the brain. While age-associated blood-borne proteins have been targeted to restore function to the aged brain, it remains unclear whether other dysfunctional systemic states can be exploited for similar benefits. Here, we investigate whether APOE allelic variation or presence of brain amyloid are associated with plasma proteomic changes and the molecular processes associated with these changes.

Gay and bisexual men (GBM) engaging in chemsex can face various health and well-being-related challenges, the extent of which remains unknown given the limited research in the context of the COVID-19 pandemic. This paper examines the pandemic impacts on the health needs of GBM who engaged in chemsex and their experiences with related services. We applied interpretive description to produce knowledge with direct implications for improving practices and policies.
