Benefiting from Spontaneously Generated 2D/3D Bulk-Heterojunctions in Ruddlesden−Popper Perovskite by Incorporation of S-Bearing Spacer Cation

2D Ruddlesden–Popper (RP) perovskite solar cells have manifested superior operation durability yet inferior charge transport compared to their 3D counterparts. Integrating 3D phases with 2D RP perovskites presents a compromise to maintain respective advantages of both components. Here, the spontaneous generation of 3D phases embedded in 2D perovskite matrix is demonstrated at room temperature via

Big Data Approaches to Phenotyping Acute Ischemic Stroke Using Automated Lesion Segmentation of Multi-Center Magnetic Resonance Imaging Data

Background and Purpose- We evaluated deep learning algorithms' segmentation of acute ischemic lesions on heterogeneous multi-center clinical diffusion-weighted magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) data sets and explored the potential role of this tool for phenotyping acute ischemic stroke. Methods- Ischemic stroke data sets from the MRI-GENIE (MRI-Genetics Interface Exploration) repository consisting

The age of the Middle Ordovician Winneshiek Shale : reply to a critical review by Lindskog & Young (2019) of a paper by Bergström et al. (2018a)

A recent review by Lindskog & Young (2019) of a paper published in Lethaia by Bergström et al. (2018a) contains many errors, misleading statements and unsupported opinions. Their review claims that we did not consider biostratigraphy in our efforts to chemostratigraphically date the Winneshiek Shale. That this is incorrect is shown by the fact that Liu et al. (2017), which contains a two-page

Women's experiences of internet-delivered Cognitive Behaviour Therapy (iCBT) for Fear of Birth

Background: Fear of Birth is common in pregnant women and associated with negative physical and mental health. There is a clear comorbidity with anxiety and depression. Internet-delivered Cognitive Behaviour Therapy has been suggested as a treatment option for Fear of Birth and a randomized controlled trial comparing internet-delivered Cognitive Behaviour Therapy with midwifery led counselling as

Health related quality of life after liver transplantation

To gather information regarding how to best assist liver transplant recipients in improving their self‐care capacity and well‐being, we investigated their total health situation. A retrospective, cross‐sectional survey with up to a 10‐year follow‐up concerning experienced health and quality of life after liver transplantation (LTX) was conducted. The aim of this study was to provide descriptive da

Pain and health related quality of life after heat-, kidney- and liver transplantation

No study has focused particularly on the sensory and affective experience of bodily pain among transplanted patients. The aim of this study was to explore pain and other factors that influence health related quality of life (HRQOL) in heart, kidney, and liver transplant recipients during the first 2 yr after transplantation, and to define similarities and/or differences in the three groups. A tota

Liver transplant recipient's ability to cope during the first 12 months after transplantation- a prospective study

Little is known about the coping style and coping strategies among liver transplant recipients. The aim of this study was to evaluate the change in the sense of coherence and coping strategies among liver transplant recipients before and during the first year after liver transplantation. The aim was also to study whether or not there was any relationship between the sense of coherence and the copi

Social functioning after organ transplantation- an integrative review

The way organ transplant recipients depend on social interactions to develop and experience social health and well-being is similar to that of the general population. A transplant may result in a close to full recovery of health status, but the physical and social problems can persist in some patients. The focus on improving the recipients’ social participation has therefore become an important is

The essence of living parental liver donation

The use of living parental liver donors will continue and probably increase because of lack of cadaveric livers for paediatric transplantation and the excellent graft survival of parental livers. Therefore, it is important for the health care professionals involved in living parental liver donation to understand the experience of being a liver donor. The aim of this study was to investigate the ex

Non-adherence to immunosuppressants after lung transplantation- a common risk behavior

Background:After lung transplantation, life-long treatment with immunosuppressive medication is required to prevent rejection and graft loss but adherence to immunosuppressive treatment may be difficult for the lung recipient. Adherence is essential and non-adherence to immunosuppressive treatment can lead to graft loss and death.Objective:The aim of this cross-sectional study was to investigate t

Environment and Sustainability

There are strong links between astrobiology and environmental concern. Astrobiology is the study of the origin, evolution and distribution of life in the universe—including Earth. Understanding life, and in particular the basic conditions for life, is important for our ability to create a sustainable future on Earth. The connection goes both ways, however. The preservation of biodiversity and of p

Fatigue 1-5 years after lung transplantation-a multi center cross-sectional cohort study

The aim of this study was to investigate the prevalence of fatigue among lung recipients 1–5 years after transplantation (LuTx) and to explore its relationship to distressing symptoms such as dyspnea, sleep problems, pain, and decreased appetite, as well as psychological and transplant specific wellbeing. A cross-sectional, multicenter cohort study was conducted. A total of 117 lung recipients wit

Uncertainty and self-efficacy in parents of a child with congenital cataract- new implications for practice

AimThe aim was an in‐depth exploration of uncertainty and self‐efficacy among parents of a child with congenital cataract by means of two theoretical frameworks to re‐design family care.DesignA directed content analysis in accordance with Hsieh & Shannon, using Mishel's theory of uncertainty and Bandura's self‐efficacy theory.MethodsOpen‐ended, in‐depth interviews were conducted with 23 parent
