Extrapolation to Nonequilibrium from Coarse-Grained Response Theory.

Published: May 2018

Nonlinear response theory, in contrast to linear cases, involves (dynamical) details, and this makes application to many-body systems challenging. From the microscopic starting point we obtain an exact response theory for a small number of coarse-grained degrees of freedom. With it, an extrapolation scheme uses near-equilibrium measurements to predict far-from-equilibrium properties (here, second order responses). Because it does not involve system details, this approach can be applied to many-body systems. It is illustrated in a four-state model and in the near critical Ising model.

Coping after the COVID-19 pandemic: nurses' learning intent and implications for the workforce and education.

Br J Nurs

January 2025

Professor, Department of Nursing, Beaver College of Health Sciences, Appalachian State University, Boone, North Carolina, USA.

Background/aim: Addressing the critical global shortage of nurses requires an understanding of how a global pandemic reshaped nurses' motivations and intentions toward education. This study aimed to describe COVID-19's impact on nurses' intent to pursue additional education.

Method: This descriptive study, based in North Carolina in the USA, used content analysis with an inductive approach to examine the responses of nurses to one open-ended question in a large quantitative workforce survey: how has COVID-19 influenced your plans for future education? Responses were coded with counts and organised into themes and subthemes.

Rigid reinforced concrete (RC) frames are generally adopted as stiff elements to make the building structures resistant to seismic forces. However, a method has yet to be fully sought to provide earthquake resistance through optimizing beam and column performance in a rigid frame. Due to its high corrosion resistance, the integration of CFRP offers an opportunity to reduce frequent repairs and increase durability.

This study employs quantum chemical computational methods to predict the spectroscopic properties of fluorescent probes 2,6-bis(2-benzimidazolyl)pyridine (BBP) and ()-3-(2-(1-benzo[]imidazol-2-yl)vinyl)-9-(2-(2-methoxyethoxy)ethyl)-9-carbazole (BIMC). Using time-dependent density functional theory (TDDFT), we successfully predicted the fluorescence emission wavelengths of BBP under various protonation states, achieving an average deviation of 6.0% from experimental excitation energies.

The human leukocyte antigen (HLA) system plays a critical role in transplant immunology, influencing outcomes through various immune-mediated rejection mechanisms. Hyperacute rejection is driven by preformed donor-specific antibodies (DSAs) targeting HLAs, leading to complement activation and graft loss within hours to days. Acute rejection typically occurs within six months post-transplantation, involving cellular and humoral responses, including the formation of de novo DSAs.

Mindfulness-Oriented Professional Resilience (MOPR) Training to Reduce Compassion Fatigue in Healthcare Workers: A Pilot Study.

Healthcare (Basel)

January 2025

Department of Languages and Literatures, Communication, Education and Society, University of Udine, 33100 Udine, Italy.

: Compassion Fatigue (CF) is a critical issue among healthcare professionals, exacerbated by exposure to trauma and chronic workplace stress. This pilot study evaluates the effectiveness of a Mindfulness-Oriented Professional Resilience (MOPR) program, a structured intervention designed to mitigate CF and enhance resilience in healthcare professionals. The program integrates mindfulness practices, arousal modulation techniques, and resilience-building strategies over six weekly sessions.
