BACKGROUND A staggering number of Americans are dying from overdoses attributed to prescription opioid medications (POMs). In response, states are creating policies related to POM harm reduction strategies, overdose prevention, and alternative therapies for pain management, such as cannabis (medical marijuana). However, little is known about how the use of cannabis for pain management may be as...

The hydrothermal synthesis of two new inorganic-organic hybrid materials in which PDA (PDA = 1,10-phenanthroline-2,9-dicarboxylate) is connected to a well-defined Keggin-type polyoxometalate anion (POM) and a Ln(III) cation (POM = [SiW12O40]4−; Ln = Eu3+ (1), Er3+ (2)), are reported. These hybrids are characterized by elemental analyses, IR spectra and single-crystal X-ray diffraction. Single-c...

The National Institute for Health and Care Excellence (NICE), as part of the institute's single technology appraisal (STA) process, invited the manufacturer of pomalidomide (POM; Imnovid®, Celgene) to submit evidence regarding the clinical and cost effectiveness of the drug in combination with dexamethasone (POM + LoDEX) for the treatment of relapsed and refractory multiple myeloma (RRMM) after...

Abstract The elongational rheology of blends a polystyrene (PS) Pom-Pom with two linear polystyrenes was recently reported by Hirschberg et al. (J. Rheol. 2023, 67:403–415). PS280k-2x22-22k self-entangled backbone ( M w,bb = 280 kg/mol) and 22 entangled sidearms w,a at each the branch points blended weight fractions from 75 to 2 wt% having w 43 kg/mol (PS43k) 90 (PS90k), respectively. While pur...

There are many effective chemothereutic agents used in influenza disease which some of them inhibit virus replication by interfering with FluV (influenza virus) viral binding or its penetration into cell membrane. A series of polyoxometalates compounds such as POM-523 and PM-504 have been synthesized and have showed inhibitory effects on viruses. In this study we examined anti influenza activit...

Abstract A dramatically changing business landscape characterized by volatility and uncertainty (which in turn are driven unpredictable alterations of conditions such factors as geopolitical events, climate changes, disasters—natural human causes, reduction food, potable water, critical materials supply along with environmental contamination), has created a situation whereby rethink Production ...

Vacuum ultraviolet （VUV） irradiation was applied to photo-activation bonding of polyoxymethylene （POM） plates. The photo-activated POM plates were bonded directly below the melting point. Their VUV-irradiated surfaces analyzed using X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy （XPS） and Fourier transform infrared （FTIR）. Results these analyses suggest that VUV introduced hydroxy groups through oxidation, m...

BACKGROUND Traffic exhaust, refineries and industrial facilities are major sources of air toxics identified by the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency (U.S. EPA) for their potential risk to human health. In utero and early life exposures to air toxics such as benzene and 1,3-butadiene, which are known leukemogens in adults, may play an etiologic role in childhood leukemia that comprises the ma...
