Increasing Oncology Nurse Cultural Knowledge, Sensitivity, and Humility in Caring for the Native Hawai'ian and Pacific Islander Population.

Stress affects people's physiologic and mental well-being. Compounded stress from natural disasters, intergenerational trauma, stigma, and mistrust of the dominant society may lead to illness and potential oncologic disorde.

Density functional tight-binding derived data of gas capture in functionalized carbophenes.

The presented data relates to the investigation of the adsorption properties of carbon dioxide (CO), methane (CH), and dihydrogen (H) within pristine and functionalized carbophene pores. The carbophenes were functionalized with one of the groups carboxyl (COOH), amine (NH), nitro (NO), hydroxyl (OH), or an amide (CONH, NHCOOH, and N(COOH)) groups. The systems were optimized using the density functional tight-binding theory code DFTB+ (pre-compiled Version 19.

First Report of the Physiological Race (XXIV) of (Coffee Leaf Rust) in Hawaii.

Hawaii's coffee industry, produced commercially on six islands by over 1,470 growers on ~10,000 acres, is conservatively valued at $100M per year (USDA NASS 2023). Until late October 2020, Hawaii was the only major coffee producing region of the world that was free of Coffee Leaf Rust (CLR). Growers are currently facing their most formidable production challenge with the arrival of Berk.

Sulfite preservatives effects on the mouth microbiome: Changes in viability, diversity and composition of microbiota.

Overview: Processed foods make up about 70 percent of the North American diet. Sulfites and other food preservatives are added to these foods largely to limit bacterial contamination. The mouth microbiota and its associated enzymes are the first to encounter food and therefore likely to be the most affected.

Risk factors for community-associated Staphylococcus aureus skin infection in children of Maui.

The prevalence of community-associated methicillin-resistant Staphylococcus aureus (CA-MRSA) infection, and Staphylococcus aureus (S. aureus) infection overall, has dramatically increased in the past 10 years. Children and Native Hawaiians and Pacific Islanders (NHPI) are disproportionately affected by CA-MRSA infection.
