Stroke is a leading cause of severe, long-term disability. Most stroke survivors are cared for in the home by a family caregiver. Caregiver stress is a leading cause of stroke survivor institutionalization, which results in significant costs to the healthcare system. Stroke family caregiver and dyad intervention studies have reported a variety of outcomes. A critical analysis of 17 caregiver in...

We have designed and synthesized a molecular dyad comprising a carotenoid pigment linked to a fullerene derivative (C-C(60)) in which the carotenoid acts both as an antenna for the fullerene and as an electron transfer partner. Ultrafast transient absorption spectroscopy was carried out on the dyad in order to investigate energy transfer and charge separation pathways and efficiencies upon exci...

W ith the advent of new payment models that reward value over volume, hospitals and health systems across the United States are increasingly taking a hard look at innovative opportunities to improve their service lines. Dyad management is 1 model gaining prominence as a way to address operational excellence and reduce costs, while at the same time further improve the quality of patient care and...

Although the crystal structure of nucleosome core particle is essentially symmetrical in the vicinity of the dyad, the linker histone binds asymmetrically in this region to select a single high-affinity site from potentially two equivalent sites. To try to resolve this apparent paradox we mapped to base-pair resolution the dyads and rotational settings of nucleosome core particles reassembled o...

Stroke remains a leading cause of serious long-term disability, with most stroke survivors returning home under the care of family members who are often unprepared for the caregiving role and lack training from healthcare providers. As a result, many stroke family caregivers experience burden, depressive symptoms, and reduced health-related quality of life. Aside from these individual issues, c...

The paper describes the analysis of teacher’s role as a guarantor maintaining quality educational process in higher institution distance learning format. author provides detailed description Distant ecosystem, its positive and negative sides. basis research is collaborative method teaching. considers features with help technologies, both from view student one. study interpreted lecturer’s perso...

The preparation of the first porphyrin-corrole dyad through click chemistry is described. The absorption, the emission and the electrochemical properties were investigated and suggested an efficient excited state interaction between the porphyrin and the corrole unit. Theoretical calculations were performed and proved that the dyad can potentially act as a molecular system for solar energy conv...

A symmetrical BODIPY-BODIPY dyad with a diyne linker was prepared in two steps; the lifetime decay of this rotor appeared to correlate with the viscosity of the media, thus making this dyad a suitable small molecule viscometer for molecular solvents. The potential of using the rotor to probe the viscosity of ionic liquids was also investigated.
