Translation and cultural adaptation of the Chinese version of the International ‘Care Of the Dying Evaluation’ (CODE™) tool for assessing the quality of care for dying patients from the perspective of bereaved family members

BMC Palliative Care
Background Culturally appropriate assessments are needed to improve care during the last days of life. One way of assessment is to use a tool with bereaved family members after death.

Pedestrian, Crowd, and Evacuation Dynamics

, 2013
This contribution describes efforts to model the behavior of individual pedestrians and their interactions in crowds, which generate certain kinds of self-organized patterns of motion. Moreover, this article focusses on the dynamics of crowds in panic or

Rational Fine‐Tuning of MOF Pore Metrics: Enhanced SO2 Capture and Sensing with Optimal Multi‐Site Interactions

Advanced Functional Materials, EarlyView.
A pore tuning strategy to amplify the multi‐site MOF‐SO2 interactions is proposed to achieve an enhanced trace SO2 capture and chemiresistive sensing in highly stable isostructural DMOFs by annelating benzene rings. This work provides a facile strategy to achieve tailor‐made stable MOF materials for specific multifunctional applications.
