Catch a Glimpse of Me is an ongoing project that uses video to help staff deliver more person-centered care for people with dementia living in long-term care. Focus groups consisting of residents, family and staff members were conducted to develop a template for the development of the videos. The five themes they identified as being important to include are: family; interests and hobbies; memories and moments; life space and getting personal. The article describes the process of developing the videos and discusses the ongoing potential of the Catch a Glimpse of Me project.

Background: Antibiotic resistance is an ongoing pandemic which represents a global public health threat. To encourage the judicious use of antibiotics, public health discourse and campaigns often engage in threat-based messaging depicting an apocalyptic post-antibiotic future. We studied the effectiveness of the strategy because of mixed evidence for its success, and because it is unclear how experiencing the COVID-19 pandemic might have influenced it.

Inflammation triggers immune system-mediated actions that contribute to the development of multiple diseases. Zymosan, a polysaccharide derived from the Saccharomyces cerevisiae cell wall, is mainly made up of glucan and mannan residues and is used as an inflammatory agent. Zymosan is a fungal product that activates the immune system through the activation of inflammatory signaling pathways, and releases a variety of harmful chemicals including pattern recognition receptors, reactive oxygen species (ROS), and the excitatory amino acid glutamate, cytokines, adhesion molecules, etc.

3D-printing application in dentistry not only enables the manufacture of patient-specific devices and tissue constructs, but also allows mass customization, as well as digital workflow, with predictable lower cost and rapid turnaround times. 4D printing also shows a good impact in dentistry, as it can produce dynamic and adaptable materials, which have proven effective in the oral environment, under its continuously changing thermal and humidity conditions. It is expected to further boost the research into producing a whole tooth, capable to harmoniously integrate with the surrounding periodontium, which represents the ultimate goal of tissue engineering in dentistry.

Lead halide perovskites have become a potential candidate as electrochemiluminescence (ECL) emitters owing to their appealing electronic-to-optical merits. It remains extremely challenging, however, to improve stability and enhance charge transfer. Herein, a self-enhanced superstructures was constructed by successively loading N-doped graphene quantum dot (NGQDs) and CsPbBr perovskite nanocrystals (PNCs) onto graphene supported two-dimensional mesoporous SiO nanosheets (2D mSiO-G).
