Objectives: This study examined differences in major and everyday discrimination between African Americans, Black Caribbeans, and non-Latino White older adults.
Methods: Data are taken from the National Survey of American Life. Measures of major (e.g., unfairly fired and harassed by police) and everyday (e.g., treated with less courtesy, insulted, and followed in stores) discrimination were examined.
Results: Both African Americans and Black Caribbeans reported more major and everyday discrimination than non-Latino Whites. However, there were no significant differences between African Americans and Whites with regards to being fired, neighbors making life difficult and receiving poor service. There were no significant differences between African Americans and Black Caribbeans in major or everyday discrimination.
Discussion: The discussion notes the importance of examining racial as well as within group ethnic differences within the Black American population in the types of discrimination. It also notes the importance of examining indicators of both major and everyday discrimination.

The misleading terminology of minor amputation of the lower limb.
Eur J Trauma Emerg Surg
January 2025
Department of Foot and Ankle Surgery, Berufsgenossenschaftliche Unfallklinik Frankfurt am Main, 60389, Frankfurt, Germany.
Purpose: A pronounced loss of function of the lower limb of various origins, especially with an infection-related course, may require a minor (MIN) or major (MAJ) amputation of the lower limb. Our aim was to contrast the underlying etiology, including previous trauma, surgical procedure, and the subsequent function.
Methods: Between 2012 and 2022, 366 lower limb amputations were considered.
Background: Intensive care unit (ICU) admissions can be traumatic for critically ill, ventilated acute respiratory distress syndrome (ARDS) patients due to fear of death, an inability to verbally communicate, reliance on health care professionals, and invasive medical interventions. Adult ARDS patients hospitalized during the COVID-19 pandemic were strictly isolated and had limited to no visitation from loved ones, impacting their access to support systems.
Objective: To explore the memories and sensory triggers for them (if applicable) of adult ARDS survivors hospitalized during the COVID-19 pandemic.
The resilience of parents and carers who administer medicines to children at home: a qualitative systematic review protocol.
Syst Rev
January 2025
School of Healthcare, University of Leeds, Worsley Building, Leeds, LS2 9JT, UK.
Background: Parents and carers are increasingly expected to administer prescribed medicines to their children at home. However, parents and carers are not always able to administer medicines as directed by the prescriber and ultimately must rely on their own judgment to administer medicines safely. This process is often unseen but may contain important learning for professionals, academics, and wider society.

Ruhr Universität Bochum, Anorganische Chemie I, Universitätsstraße 150, NC 3/26, 44801, Bochum, GERMANY.
In recent years, formic acid (FA) has garnered attention as a compelling molecule for various chemical and everyday applications Additionally, with recent studies demonstrating direct FA generation through CO2 electrolysis, it can serve as a stable liquid hydrogen carrier. Nevertheless, FA-permeability via semi-permeable ion‑exchange membranes (FA-crossover) still constitutes a major issue in scalable polymer-electrolyte separated zero-gap electrolyzers, limiting the breakthrough of the technology to the larger-scale. Herein we present a holistic route towards understanding the mechanism of FA-crossover in zero-gap cells.
