The conjugation of graphene and polymers has attracted great attention for the fabrication of functional hybrid nanomaterials.Here, we demonstrate the modification of graphene oxide (GO) with adamantane (AMT) through the diimide-activated amidation reaction.The modification of GO with AMT improves the dispersion and decreases the interfacial polari
Reduction of femoral fractures in long-term care facilities: the Bavarian fracture prevention study.
BackgroundHip fractures are a major public health burden.In industrialized countries about 20% of all femoral fractures occur in care dependent persons living in nursing care and assisted living facilities.Preventive strategies for these Relaxation groups are needed as the access to medical services differs from independent home dwelling older pers
Scoping review of fidelity strategies used in behaviour change trials delivered in primary dental care settings
Abstract Background Primary dental care settings are strategically important locations where randomised controlled trials (RCTs) of behaviour change interventions (BCIs) can be tested to tackle oral diseases.Findings have so far produced equivocal results.Improving treatment fidelity is posed as a mechanism to improve scientific rigour, consistency
Research on conductive polymer microneedles with adjustable dissolution rate
Dissolvable polymeric microneedles have gained significant attention in recent years as a promising transdermal drug delivery method due to their simple fabrication and lack of medical waste after use.However, traditional polymeric microneedles possess several notable drawbacks, including insufficient mechanical strength, difficulty in effectively
