Background: Although brain and heart conditions share overlapping risk factors and commonly co-occur, current cardiac and neurologic clinical guidelines are typically produced within specialty silos. The objective of this guideline from a Canadian Cardiovascular Harmonized National Guideline En ...

Objectives: This study evaluated the effects of delayed post-polymerization on color, degree of conversion (DC), flexural strength (FS), and cellular response of a 3D-printed dental interim resin. Methods: Specimens were divided into six groups based on delays of 0 h, 2 h, 4 h, 6 h, 8 h, and 10 h before post-polymerization. Color was characterized usin ...

Developing low-cost and easy-to-use point-of-care devices is necessary for timely disease diagnosis and health monitoring. Here, we introduce all-inclusive, tablet-based chemo/biosensors with rapid automixing features, capable of mixing in highly viscous solutions with viscosities up to 1700 mPa·s. These tablets are created using a simple powder compres ...

Polydimethylsiloxane (PDMS) and poly(3,4-ethylene dioxythiophene):poly(4-styrene-sulfonate) (PEDOT:PSS) composites were tested to determine their suitability for charging small-scale batteries in conjunction with a piezoelectric actuator as an energy harvester. Two different PEDOT:PSS patterns (zigzag and serpentine) were tested, and the maximum DC volt ...

Point-of-care (POC) devices provide on-site disease diagnosis, particularly in resource-limited settings. Despite considerable progress in POC testing, the availability of commercial devices remains limited, primarily due to challenges in detection sensitivity and portability. Furthermore, advancements in existing POC devices are essential to better mee ...

Lecanemab and donanemab are monoclonal antibody therapies that remove amyloid-beta from the brain. They are the first therapies that alter a fundamental mechanism, amyloid-beta deposition, in Alzheimer disease (AD). To inform Canadian decisions on approval and use of these drugs, the Canadian C ...

Control over the orientation of polycyclic aromatic dyes in thin films is paramount to tailoring their optical, electronic, and mechanical properties. Their supramolecular assembly in films is tuned here by converting the macrocyclic dyes to large amphiphiles. Two octaalkythio-substituted tetraazaporphyrins (TAPs) with one 5-carboxypentyl and one pentyl ...

Evaluating whether someone's behavior is praiseworthy or blameworthy is a fundamental human trait. A seminal study by Hamlin and colleagues in 2007 suggested that the ability to form social evaluations based on third-party interactions emerges within the first year of life: infants preferre ...
