Patient engagement in the decision-making process should include considerations of patient knowledge of, and experience with, the various treatment options. © 2020 American Academy of Physical Medicine and Rehabilitation.BACKGROUND The use of platelet-rich plasma (PRP) combined with noninvasive, nonenergy procedures for atrophic acne sc…[Read more]

A chemoselective and diastereoselective synthesis of fused oxazolidines was achieved by a three-component cascade reaction of tetrahydroisoquinolines (THIQs), α,β-unsaturated aldehydes, and diethyl 2-oxomalonate. Probably due to the reactivity difference between the aldehyde and the ketone, the reaction proceeded through the condensation of T…[Read more]

Lead halide perovskite (APbX3) nanocrystals exhibit photoluminescence (PL) with both wide wavelength tunability and high quantum efficiency. While the Pb-X6 octahedra mainly determines the near-band-edge optical properties and the A-site cation affects the structural stability, the role of the A-site cation in determining the optical properties is…[Read more]

Biopolymers are rapidly gaining attention as sustainable precursors for lightweight porous materials for energy-saving, pharmaceutical, catalysis, and environmental remediation applications. Chitosan is an abundant biopolymer derived from food waste with attractive properties, particularly its high biocompatibility and easy chemical…[Read more]

Objective Telephone triage manages patient flow in acute care, but a lack of visual cues and vague descriptions of symptoms challenges clinical decision making. We aim to investigate the association between the caller’s subjective perception of illness severity expressed as “degree-of-worry” (DOW) and hospital admissions within 48 h. Design and…[Read more]

The purpose of this study was to evaluate the efficacy of antimicrobial photodynamic therapy (aPDT) with chloro-aluminum phthalocyanine (AlClPc) on several periodontal parameters and salivary glutathione (GSH) and MDA (malondialdehyde) levels in periodontal sites presenting periodontitis. Randomized clinical trial, comprising 40 test group (TG)…[Read more]
