One new type of hybrid lead halide of [DTHPE]2Pb3Cl10 has been synthesized and characterized containing a one-dimensional (1D) wavelike [Pb3Cl10]4- chain based on a corner-shared [Pb3Cl11] cluster. Remarkably, this cluster-based 1D chain displays intrinsic broadband white light emission with a high quantum efficiency of 19.45% exceeding those of previously reported typical two-dimensional perovskites.The hydrogen evolution reaction is a huge challenge for CO2 electroreduction. Herein, an inside-mode indium oxide/carbon nanotube compound (MWCNTs@In2O3) is developed to maximize the catalytic effect and suppress hydrogen evolution, its HCOOH selectivity can reach up to 92.2% at -16.8 mA cm-2, which is more efficient than In2O3.This essay looks at the liminal genre of the critical pathography, a literary form that bridges the boundary between an academic analysis and an illness narrative. It argues that when this genre is compared to more traditional forms of analysis in the medical humanities and bioethics, the critical pathography treats its subject in a manner that is more akin to what Gabriel Marcel refers to as a mystery, something that can only be explored, than to a problem, a puzzle that can be solved.The essay explores how Simon Critchley's critique of philosophy and understanding of tragedy might affect bioethics and health-care practice. What I playfully call the Critchley Doctrine begins with a rejection of philosophy's aspiration to a non-contradictory life and its premise that humans act on rational deliberation. This rejection opens us to a recognition of the uncontainable that is expressed in tragedy, and that speaks to what is inexplicable about the suffering of illness. Critchley advocates an ethics of heteronomy or hetero-affectivity rather than autonomy, but his version is distinguished by its recognition of how crushing the demands of the other can be. Tragedy and humor offer what he calls aesthetic reparation. A tragic medicine balances grieving with humor and seeks above all honesty in communication."It was just a few small red dots," I would recount to innumerable sympathetic nurses. They-the dots, not nurses-clustered together on my son's smooth slim neck. I stroked them as I dressed him after the bath. My inner hypochondriac was oddly quiet. Larry, my son, was well, throwing himself through the world with speed, joy, and curiosity. The next day I took him casually to our general practitioner to get these curious freckles checked. Then everything started to tilt. How do I weave it all together? In a string of Facebook posts? In a small impersonal room opposite a stranger while I sip a glass of water? In a series of dark jokes with my husband in the kitchen late at night? In snatches of awkward conversation with friends? In dreams from which I wake gasping? By scouring the sentences of authors and archives? From the discoveries of Paul Ehrlich to the scattered words of Emily Dickinson to the constant mechanical chugging of the IV pump, this interdisciplinary essay delves into the medical and cultural history of blood and bone marrow to tell an acutely personal story.In this commentary, written in two bursts-the first completed in April 2020, and the second at the end of July-we explore how media metaphors of COVID-19 constitute the pandemic in Australia and New Zealand. We argue that the media's rhetorical strategies play an important role not only in describing the illness, but in influencing and shaping individual and collective responses to the pandemic, with significant consequences for mental health and well-being in the context of crisis. We align this commentary with the tenets of the sociology of diagnosis, which argue that even though there are material realities of disease, their social form and consequence cannot be separated from the tangible nature of illness and its management. We also lean on Derrida's approach to metaphor, which underlines how even observable viral entities such as COVID-19 are simultaneously material, abstract, and in flux. We describe the metaphors used by local media to describe the pandemic-including combat, bush fires, earthquakes, and other natural disasters-and we explore how and why these metaphors construct the pandemic locally and farther afield.The health provider workforce is shaped by factors collectively influencing the education, training, licensing, and certification of physicians and allied health professionals, through professional organizations with interlocking and often opaque governance relationships within a state-based licensing system. This system produces a workforce is that is insufficiently responsive to current needs and opportunities, including those created by new technologies. This lack of responsiveness reflects the complex, nontransparent, and cautious nature of the controlling organizations, influenced by the economic interests of the organized professions, which seek protection from competitors both local and international. The first step in addressing this is to comprehensively examine the organizational complexity and conflicted interests within this critical ecosystem. Doing so suggests areas ripe for change, to enhance the health workforce and benefit public health.This article proposes an undergraduate hospice experience course as a new model of experiential learning, one that would provide effective preparation for students entering medical school and that would help them become better doctors. Medical humanities scholars scrutinize narrative models for inspiration and understanding, in order to develop teaching strategies that recognize the importance of the end of life and caring for patients appropriately. The written narrative, however, should not stand alone the spoken, or shared narrative-the story as it is told by patients, friends, and family members-is equally important. Therefore, the authors urge that undergraduate premedical students spend time with patients who are dying. The Medical Humanities program at Indiana University-Purdue University Indianapolis (IUPUI) offers an experiential learning course that couples student volunteer hospice service with reflective analysis of the relationship between the end of life, medicine, and patient care and that emphasizes the value of the shared story. This article examines the development and implementation of the upper-level undergraduate Hospice Experience course as an invitation to a larger conversation about this important topic.The COVID-19 pandemic has provided medical students around the globe with unique challenges and opportunities. With formal medical school education and training interrupted, medical students sought innovative ways to contribute to their health-care systems and communities. Their responses could be organized into three categories clinical (remote clinical care and triage, helping in COVID testing or treatment centers, and contact tracing), nonclinical (PPE acquisition, COVID-related policy and research, and supporting vulnerable groups in the community), and educational (creating materials to educate peers, the community, or community health workers). We present examples of responses developed by students from five countries Brazil, Nepal, the Philippines, Rwanda, and the United States. We discuss the challenges, outcomes, and recommendations for each case. One critical opportunity for growth is strengthening international collaborations. We hope that these examples provide a framework for medical students to plan coordinated and effective responses to the next pandemic, and further medical student engagement in international collaboration.This is a daunting time, not only in terms of our public health and our economic health but also in terms of the health of the republic. It is an old theme that any form of popular government needs virtuous citizens if it is to survive. It also needs citizens to agree on what counts as a virtue. I fear that the pandemic has shown that "We, the people" do not agree, and this shows what we already knew, that there are profound cracks in our union.This article critiques the idealization of a biomarker-based "objective pain scale" in order to argue for increased investment in communication-centric approaches to chronic pain diagnosis and treatment. Although new technological advances and the rise of big data have revived old fantasies of objective pain measures, scholars have long affirmed the dangers of converting human experience into numbers, as well as the fundamental impossibility of reducing pain to physiology. Biomarkers can certainly be useful tools, but investments must also be made in fostering the "strong objectivity" that feminist scholars have advocated for and that the incorporation of narrative-driven initiatives can provide. Because expressing pain is notoriously difficult, doing this creative, communication-driven work well requires substantial effort, time, and training. Engaging with chronic pain from a feminist standpoint-one that affirms individuals' situated experiences as valuable data and that attends to the rich multi-modal vocabularies emerging on social media-can pave the way to a more equitable, ethical, and effective future of pain care.Many pathogens, especially fungi, have evolved the capacity to manipulate host behavior, usually to improve their chances of spreading to other hosts. Such manipulation is difficult to observe in long-lived hosts, like humans. First, much time may separate cause from effect in the case of an infection that develops over a human life span. Second, the host-pathogen relationship may initially be commensal the host becomes a vector for infection of other humans, and in exchange the pathogen remains discreet and does as little harm as possible. Commensalism breaks down with increasing age because the host is no longer a useful vector, being less socially active and at higher risk of death. Certain neurodegenerative diseases may therefore be the terminal stage of a longer-lasting relationship in which the host helps the pathogen infect other hosts, largely via sexual relations. Strains from the Candida genus are particularly suspect. Such pathogens seem to have co-evolved not only with their host population but also with the local social environment. Different social environments may have thus favored different pathogenic strategies for manipulation of human behavior.The telephone has played a key role in shaping modern life. While most scholars focus on the early use of landline telephones, this article follows the subsequent social history of landline telephones in the late twentieth century as an equally significant phase of innovation, when telephone practices changed radically as a result of transformations in national and household infrastructures. In this article, we identify a new generation of "landline natives" emerging around 1968; for them, the telephone was a natural form of communication and part of their home environments. Our case study of how telephone use became taken for granted serves as a prehistory for scholars studying cellphone and smartphone practices as well as media scholars seeking to understand audience participation in television and radio.A light bulb is manufactured from resources found across the world. Knowing what role these resources play in manufacturing processes helps us understand why some technologies were successful and others were not. Rimiducid The glow from light bulbs depends entirely on the metals in the filament. In the late nineteenth century, manufacturers struggled to find a metal that did not melt when emitting a soft, warm glow. Only a few metals had the sought-after properties, and these became valued resources.This article explores how the manufacturing of light bulbs affected and was affected by access to metals. Manufacturers competed fiercely to ensure they acquired the resources only found in a few places worldwide in their quest to take over the expanding lighting market. Making light bulbs in an era of protectionism affected extraction sites and politics globally.
