Atmospheric and laboratory atlases of high-resolution infrared absorption spectra have been generated from data obtained with the University of Denver Michelson-type interferometer balloon-borne spectrometer systems. The main objectives of the atlas work have been the identification and the detailed analysis of stratospheric infrared high-resolution spectral features. The stratospheric atlases cover many spectral intervals and provide tables of line positions and species identifications. High Sun spectra are used for identification of solar lines. Latest editions of these atlases include selected sections in the 760-1950- and 800-1700-cm(-1) regions at 0.02- and 0.002-cm(-1) resolutions, respectively. In addition to the stratospheric atlases, ground-based and laboratory spectral atlases have also been produced. The laboratory spectra of many molecules relevant to stratospheric chemistry have been obtained. A number of ongoing spectroscopic studies have been developed on the basis of the atlas work, including studies of solar and atmospheric spectral features.

Finding gaps in the national electric vehicle charging station coverage of the United States.

Nat Commun

January 2025

Lawrence Berkeley National Laboratory, 1 Cyclotron Rd., Berkeley, CA, USA.

The United States federal government has invested $7.5 billion into charging infrastructure, including the National Electric Vehicle Infrastructure Program, to build fast charging stations along designated highways for long-distance car travel. We develop a consecutive coverage metric to compute the percent of United States roads (traffic-weighted) that are consecutively accessible within 500 miles of each county.

Purpose: We performed a pragmatic, cluster randomized controlled trial of a comprehensive practice-level, multistage practice transformation intervention aiming to increase behavioral health integration in primary care practices and improve patient outcomes. We examined associations between completion of intervention stages and patient outcomes across a heterogeneous national sample of primary care practices.

Methods: Forty-two primary care practices across the United States with colocated behavioral health and 2,945 patients with multiple chronic medical and behavioral health conditions completed surveys at baseline, midpoint, and 2-year follow-up.

Retinoid signaling in pancreas development, islet function, and disease.

Curr Top Dev Biol

January 2025

University of Michigan, Department of Pharmacology, Caswell Diabetes Institute, Ann Arbor, MI, United States. Electronic address:

All-trans retinoic acid (ATRA) signaling is essential in numerous different biological contexts. This review highlights the diverse roles of ATRA during development, function, and diseases of the pancreas. ATRA is essential to specify pancreatic progenitors from gut tube endoderm, endocrine and exocrine differentiation, and adult islet function.

Background: In skilled nursing facilities (SNFs), i-STRONGER is a novel, high-intensity resistance training approach that incorporates progressive resistance training to promote greater improvements in patient function compared to usual care. To inform large-scale expansion of i-STRONGER as standard-of-care in SNFs, this mixed-methods study assessed rehabilitation providers' perceptions of i-STRONGER and purported needs for its adoption.

Methods: Forty-three rehabilitation providers participated in an 18-week, interactive i-STRONGER training program.

Preparation of Washed Human Platelets for Quantitative Metabolic Flux Studies.

Depeartment of Chemical and Biological Engineering, Colorado School of Mines; Quantitative Biosciences and Engineering, Colorado School of Mines;

Platelets are blood cells that play an integral role in hemostasis and the innate immune response. Platelet hyper- and hypoactivity have been implicated in metabolic disorders, increasing risk for both thrombosis and bleeding. Platelet activation and metabolism are tightly linked, with the numerous methods to measure the former but relatively few for the latter.
