Abstract	Nonionic alkyl ethoxylates (C(n)E(m)) have been extensively studied for their adsorption, aggregation, and solubilization individually and in small groups. In this work, we report a more systematic study of the effects of alkyl chain (tail) and ethoxylate (head) length on the size, shape, and extent of intermixing within the C(n)E(m) micelles in aqueous solution. Data from small angle neutron scattering (SANS) and nuclear magnetic resonance (NMR) were combined to undertake the structural characterization of micelles formed from the two separate series of surfactants C(n)E6 (n = 10, 12, 14) and C12E(m) (m = 5, 6, 8, 10, 12). The micellar core volume (V(core)) could be well determined with reasonable accuracy and linked to the hydrophilic-lipophilic balance (HLB) of the surfactant, with a sharp size and shape transition occurring around HLB = 12.5. NOESY NMR results revealed protrusions of the terminal methylene groups into the ethoxylate shell, thus providing direct experimental evidence for the phenomenon of "roughness" or intermixing of the core-shell interface. These detailed studies are compared with previous investigations on this model surfactant system.

Abstract: ... Communication disability intersecting with other characteristics subject to discrimination (e.g., race, age, sex, income ...

Abstract	Persons with communication disabilities including persons with post-stroke aphasia (PWAs) possess a vulnerability to climate change as a result of their communication impairments. The disproportionate effects of climate change are likely to exacerbate preexisting inequities in social determinants of health. Communication disability intersecting with other characteristics subject to discrimination (e.g., race, age, sex, income) may lead to inequities in climate-related adaptive capacity. This article echoes earlier concerns related to climate change and further educates healthcare professionals about the impact of climate change on the global human population, with particular consideration of PWAs. The aims of this article are the following: (1) to broaden the understanding of aphasiologists and clinicians caring for PWAs about climate change and the contributions of human activity (anthropogenic) to this crisis; (2) to describe climate change and its impact on health; (3) to detail the intersectionality of climate and health; (4) to explore climate change and its potential effects on PWAs; and (5) to offer hope through emissions reduction, adaptation, resilience, and immediate change.

Abstract	Here we review the literature on the basking shark (Cetorhinus maximus, Gunnerus, 1765), well known as the second largest extant shark (and fish) species globally. Previous reviews were published by Kunzlik in 1988 and Sims in 2008, but in the last 15 years modern electronic and DNA sequencing technologies have resulted in considerable advances in our knowledge of the species' behaviour and ecology. Basking sharks are planktivores and under appropriate conditions spend prolonged periods at the ocean surface feeding on copepod prey that primarily make up their diet, the behaviour that gave rise to their common name. In general, they are migratory and move into higher latitude waters during the summer months, when loose surface-feeding aggregations may form at favoured sites, the best known of which at present occur at hotspots on the west coasts of Britain and Ireland. The species is found circumglobally in temperate waters, but they are also now known on occasion to migrate at depth between northern and southern hemispheres, as well as across oceans within the northern hemisphere. In the past basking shark were more abundant across much of their range, but, consequent on targeted fisheries and in some places intentional eradication, became everywhere scarce, with recent population recovery in the north-east Atlantic being the result of protective measures initiated in the 1990s. Despite their charismatic nature, some of their most fundamental biological processes including copulation, gestation and birth remain largely unknown, due to their migratory and often deep-water lifestyle. In contrast, the deployment of small-scale archival and satellite tags has revealed the details of both broadscale migratory movements and horizontal and vertical foraging behaviours. Recent genetic studies support evidence suggesting a degree of site fidelity in relation to seasonal feeding grounds, which likely explains why in the past local populations have collapsed following periods of intensive fishing. Other recent research using aerial drones and towed cameras has revealed within loose feeding aggregations elements of social behaviour that may have a courtship function as well as enhance feeding efficiency.

Abstract	Assuring home care (HC) workers' safety is challenging because the work environment is a private home. This paper presents the process evaluation for a proof-of-concept safety intervention study to assess whether nurse-led safety coaching, using motivational interviewing and a safety handbook, could enable HC clients to improve safety in their homes. The process evaluation objectives were to (i) document the intervention's implementation progress and (ii) assess the intervention's dose delivery, dose reception, and fidelity.

Abstract	Home care (HC) aides experience numerous safety hazards in clients' homes; many hazards also put clients at risk. We hypothesized that safety coaching led by nurse managers (NMs) during their initial HC needs assessment could prompt clients to improve safety conditions in their homes. Following a 2-arm proof-of-concept intervention study design, intervention NMs used motivational interviewing (MI), facilitated by a safety handbook and video, to coach clients on home safety improvements. Control arm NMs performed intake assessments with no changes to usual practices. Intervention effectiveness was assessed by NMs and aides. Three HC agencies and two elder services contributed 35 intervention and 23 control homes. NMs coached 97% of clients and reported that 94% were engaged; 63% implemented improvements. NMs' and aides' assessments were consistent; homes with clients reported by NMs as resistant to safety changes had higher aides' hazard scores. Client coaching can be effective for improving HC safety.

Abstract	Background Asthma, Allergic rhinitis (AR), Chronic Obstructive Pulmonary Disease (COPD), Eczema, and Chronic Rhinosinusitis with Sinonasal Polyposis (CRSwNP) are illnesses often characterized by type 2 (T2) inflammation, wherein T helper (Th) cells release pro-inflammatory cytokines such as IL (interleukin)-4, IL-5, IL-9, and IL-13. This response may also promote the production of IgE and an increase in/activation of serum eosinophils. In the aforementioned type 2 inflammatory diseases, this immune response can cause excess mucous production, inflammation of the airways, other atopic responses when patients are exposed to certain environmental allergic triggers. Relatively new biologic monoclonal antibody therapies such as dupilumab (blocks IL-4 and IL-13), benralizumab (blocks IL-5), mepolizumab (blocks IL-5), and omalizumab (blocks IgE Fc/fragment of crystallization region) offer novel therapeutic targets that more specifically and directly block type 2 inflammatory responses. Methods To examine the effect of monoclonal antibody biologic therapies on patient indicators of type 2 inflammation, a retrospective analysis of 193 patients on biologic therapy was conducted, and these patients were compared to 48 control patients with type 2 inflammatory diseases who did not initiate biologic therapy. Total Lund-MacKay radiographic score, FEV1 (forced expiratory volume in the first second), FEF25-75 (forced expiratory flow from 25-75% of the forced vital capacity curve), annualized pulmonary exacerbations, oral corticosteroid dose, and serum eosinophils were recorded at baseline (zero months), and at three, six, nine, and twelve months after initiation of biologic therapy. Least squares mean data and the percent change from the baseline of least squares mean for the biologic and control groups were compared. Results Omalizumab was the most common biologic therapy prescribed. Control patients were younger than patients who initiated biologic therapy. Patients on biologic therapy had statistically significant reductions in Lund-MacKay score, improvements in FEV1 and FEF25-75, reductions in serum IgE levels, and reductions in serum Eosinophils. Patients on biologic therapy also had statistically significant reductions in annualized pulmonary exacerbations and oral corticosteroid dose compared to controls. Conclusions Patients with a variety of type 2 inflammatory conditions appear to have significant improvements in lung function, radiographic sinusitis, and serum markers of type 2 inflammation after initiation of biologic therapy versus controls. These therapeutic medications appear to significantly improve type 2 inflammatory disease course in patients who can tolerate these medications.

Abstract	Nowadays, there is a growing demand for effective cosmetic skincare products that can address the specific skin problems of consumers. Delivery systems play an important role in the effective action of cosmetic skincare formulations. Delivery systems are attractive and smart technologies used as carriers for cosmetic ingredients, which are sensitive to various physical factors such as light, oxygen, pH and temperature. Delivery systems offer several advantages: transport and protection of sensitive active compounds, controlled and targeted release of active ingredients. Several delivery systems, varying in chemical composition, with adaptable physicochemical characteristics (size, morphology, zeta potential, structure) as well as great advantages as carriers, are developed and described in the literature. This article reviews the current cosmetic active ingredients used in skincare products due to their beneficial properties such as antioxidant, anti-aging, photo-protective, anti-inflammatory, anti-microbial, etc.). In addition, the main advantages of several classes of delivery systems (emulsions, lipid nanoparticles, polymeric particles) are described, as well as some recent approaches used to ensure their efficacy (long-term stability, controlled release of the active, skin penetration/permeation) are reviewed. Finally, new trends to be considered for the development of delivery systems and cosmetic formulations are discussed.
