We describe a general, symmetry-conditioned way of enumerating isomers of saturated singly substituted one-dimensional nanothreads of the (CH)E and (CH)CR type, where E is a heteroatom and R is a substituent. Four nanothreads - so-called tube (3,0), polytwistane, the zipper polymer, and polymer I, are treated in detail. The methodology, combining symmetry arguments and computer-based enumeration, is generally applicable to isomerism problems in polymers.

Background: Virtual care (VC) for dementia in primary care settings is an important aspect of healthcare delivery in Canada. However, the evidence informing optimal and sustainable provision of VC for persons living with dementia (PLWD) and their care partners is scarce. The objectives of this study were to (1) describe the frequency of VC use, (2) identify characteristics of PLWD, care partners, and family physicians (FPs) that are associated with the use of VC, and (3) explore FPs' perceptions of barriers and facilitators to provide VC for PLWD and their care partners.

In this experiment, we studied a technique that permits the continuous fabrication of electrochromic alginate fibers because there hasn't been much research on electrochromic alginate fibers. Therefore, it's important to investigate ways to increase the application areas of alginate fibers. AgNP‑calcium alginate fibers with high electrical conductivity were prepared by Ag substitution method.

This study contributes to improving the accuracy of temperature measurements with a platinum resistance temperature detector (RTD) by proposing techniques to mitigate the error due to self-heating by the operating current. An assessment of the measurement errors of the platinum RTD was carried out to study ways to improve their accuracy. High accuracy can be achieved by individual calibration using a voltage divider circuit to measure resistance, the substitution method, and the transitional measure.

1-Deoxy-d-xylulose 5-phosphate synthase (DXPS) is a unique thiamin diphosphate (ThDP)-dependent enzyme that catalyzes the formation of DXP, a branchpoint metabolite required for the biosynthesis of vitamins and isoprenoids in bacterial pathogens. DXPS has relaxed substrate specificity and utilizes a gated mechanism, equipping DXPS to sense and respond to diverse substrates. We speculate that pathogens utilize this distinct gated mechanism in different ways to support metabolic adaptation during infection.
