A molecule containing a nitroamine redox center (2'-amino-4-ethynylphenyl-4'-ethynylphenyl-5'-nitro-1-benzenethiol) was used in the active self-assembled monolayer an electronic device. Current-voltage measurements of device exhibited negative differential resistance and on-off peak-to-valley ratio excess 1000:1.
Mobile ad hoc networking has been an active research area for several years. How to stimulate cooperation among selfish mobile nodes, however, is not well addressed yet. In this paper, we propose Sprite, a simple, cheat-proof, credit-based system stimulating nodes in networks. Our provides incentive cooperate and report actions honestly. Compared with previous approaches, our does require any tamper-proof hardware at node. Furthermore, present formal model of prove its properties....
<b>Objective</b> To evaluate the association between door-to-balloon time and mortality in hospital patients undergoing primary percutaneous coronary intervention for ST elevation myocardial infarction to assess incremental benefit of reductions times less than 90 minutes. <b>Design</b> Prospective cohort study enrolled American College Cardiology National Cardiovascular Data Registry, 2005-6. <b>Setting</b> Acute care hospitals. <b>Participants</b> 43 801 with intervention. <b>Main outcome...
Patterned growth of freestanding carbon nanotube(s) on submicron nickel dot(s) silicon has been achieved by plasma-enhanced-hot-filament-chemical-vapor deposition (PE-HF-CVD). A thin film grid was fabricated a wafer standard microlithographic techniques, and the PE-HF-CVD done using acetylene (C2H2) gas as source ammonia (NH3) catalyst dilution gas. Well separated, single nanotubes were observed to grow grid. The structures had rounded base diameters approximately 150 nm, heights ranging...
Advancements in mobile phone technology have led to the development of smartphones with capability run apps. The availability a plethora health- and fitness-related smartphone apps has potential, both on clinical public health level, facilitate healthy behavior change weight management. However, current top-rated this area not been extensively evaluated terms scientific quality behavioral theory evidence base. purpose study was evaluate most popular dietary weight-loss commercial market...
Abstract Background Smartphone health applications (apps) and other mobile (mHealth) technologies may assist dietitians in improving the efficiency of patient care. The present study investigated use apps text messaging dietetic practice formulated intervention recommendations for supporting app uptake by based on behavioural ‘ COM ‐B’ system, where interactions between capability, opportunity motivation influence behaviour. Methods A 52‐item online survey tool, taking 20 min to complete,...
We report measurements on through-bond electronic transport properties of 1,4-phenylene diisocyanide–metal junctions. Nanoscale metal–molecule–metal junctions with self-assembled diisocyanide layers were analyzed variable temperature conductance to reveal the dominant mechanisms. Non-Ohmic thermionic emission is process, isocyanide–Pd showing lowest barrier 0.22 eV.
Abstract It is the position of Dietitians Australia that clients can receive high‐quality and effective dietetic services such as Medical Nutrition Therapy (MNT) delivered via telehealth. Outcomes telehealth‐delivered consultations are comparable to those in‐person, without requiring higher levels additional training nor compromising quality service provision. recommends policy makers healthcare funders broaden recognition for a responsive cost‐effective alternative or complement traditional...
Smartphone lifestyle applications (apps) and wearable fitness-tracking devices collect a wealth of data that could provide research insights to support prevention treatment obesity chronic diseases. The aim this study was pilot survey explore patterns behavioral tracking using smartphone apps individuals' willingness share their app-generated data.A cross-sectional Web-based conducted within university setting. 35-item asked participants about self-tracking patterns; use devices; how...
There is a growing incidence of cognitive decline and dementia associated with the ageing population. Lifestyle factors such as diet, physical activity, activities may individually or collectively be undertaken to increase one's odds preventing future dementia. This study will examine whether clinical trials using multidomain lifestyle intervention can significantly decrease risk therefore systematic literature review interventions for prevention followed PRISMA guidelines. Clinical...
Abstract INTRODUCTION The Finnish Geriatric Intervention Study (FINGER) led to the global dementia risk reduction initiative: World‐Wide FINGERS (WW‐FINGERS). As part of WW‐FINGERS, Australian AU‐ARROW study mirrors aspects FINGER, as well US‐POINTER. METHOD is a randomized, single‐blind, multisite, 2‐year clinical trial ( n = 600; aged 55–79). multimodal lifestyle intervention group will engage in aerobic exercise, resistance training and stretching, dietary advice encourage MIND diet...
Background: Dietitians are engaging with mobile health (mHealth) technologies, particularly diet and nutrition apps in their patient care. Despite the plethora of available, majority not designed a dietitian's input. Objective: The aim this study was to identify user preferences dietitians relation tools, resources, design features for smartphone that would support dietetic professional practice patients. Methods: As part larger international Web-based survey health-app use among dietitians,...
Non-communicable diseases (NCD) have become the leading cause of premature death and disability in Pacific region, with development health literacy an important factor for prevention control NCD. Health is lifelong asset that can be developed adolescents through engagement schooling curriculum. The aim this study was to explore Ni-Van adolescents' knowledge capabilities regarding food nutrition, climate change digital technology solutions. Two schools participated (one urban (School A) one...
Design and measurements of molecular wires, switches, memories offer an increased device capability with reduced elements. We report: Measurements on through-bond electronic transport properties nanoscale metal-1,4-phenylene diisocyanide-metal junctions are reported, where nonohmic thermionic emission is the dominant process, isocyanide-Pd showing lowest barrier 0.22 eV; robust large reversible switching behavior in that utilizes molecules containing redox centers as active component,...
(1) Background: Smartphone dietary assessment apps can be acceptable and valid data collection methods but have predominantly been validated in highly educated women, none specifically measured eating-out habits young adults. (2) Methods: Participants recorded their food beverage consumption for three days using the Eat Track (EaT) app, intakes were compared with dietitian-administered 24-h recall interviews matched to same as reference method. Wilcoxon signed-rank or t-tests, correlation...
