Article Abstract
The detailed characterization of local order and disorder in isometric ABO crystalline pyrochlores is of significant importance in view of their wide range and sensitive technological applications. Nevertheless, much remains to be understood concerning their atomic scale structures. Here we specifically pinpoint local order and disorder in four stoichiometric LnZrO (Ln = La, Nd, Sm and Eu) pyrochlores using a combination of three standard easily available laboratory techniques: XRD, O solid-state MAS NMR and Raman spectroscopy. The evolution of the oxygen sub-lattice identifies specific features (extra O NMR signals and Raman bands) which undoubtedly reveal local oxygen order and disorder in these stoichiometric long range ordered crystalline pyrochlores. These results complete the understanding of the atomic scale in these stoichiometric pyrochlores necessitating the need for new microscopic structural models.

Parent and Clinician Perspectives on Diagnostic Testing for Children With Diarrhea: A Qualitative Study.
JAMA Netw Open
September 2025
Department of Population Health Sciences, University of Utah School of Medicine, Salt Lake City.
Importance: Advances in diagnostics have enabled the detection of more gastrointestinal pathogens, but misuse of diagnostics can lead to inappropriate antibiotic use and excess financial burdens. Ensuring appropriate use of diagnostics is crucial for optimizing patient care and promoting stewardship of health care resources.
Objective: To elicit parents' and clinicians' perspectives on expectations for care of pediatric diarrhea with a focus on diagnostic testing and to evaluate the potential for an electronic clinical decision support tool (ECDST) to improve appropriate use of diagnostics.
[Clinical and laboratory aspects of ultrasound treatment for chronic wounds].

Objective: To evaluate clinical and laboratory effectiveness of ultrasound treatment for purulent wounds.
Material And Methods: The study enrolled 46 patients with purulent wounds divided into the main group (23 patients, ultrasonic treatment) and the control group (23 patients, traditional treatment). We assessed treatment effectiveness considering visual data, quality of granulation tissue, wound defect area and marginal epithelialization, complete blood count and C-reactive protein.
Adults with Autism Have Numerous Needs, and So Do Their Parents!

Parents of adults with autism spectrum disorders (ASD) face significant challenges, including high vulnerability to stress and a lack of adequate support services. However, there are currently few support systems based on a genuine assessment of their needs. This is particularly true in the French context, where there are delays in supporting families and addressing autism in adulthood.

Structural and magnetic properties of ultra-small tetrahedron-shaped iron oxide nanoparticles were investigated using density functional theory. Tetrahedral and truncated tetrahedral models were considered in both non-functionalized form and with surfaces passivated by pseudo-hydrogen atoms. The focus on these two morphologies reflects their experimental relevance at this size scale and the feasibility of performing fully relaxed, atomistically resolved first-principles simulations.

Polydrug abuse is the persistent self-administration of more than one reinforcing drug. The present study provided rhesus monkeys concurrent access to two drugs: 8% alcohol and solutions of either cocaine or methadone. The liquids were available under concurrent nonindependent fixed-ratio (FR) schedules across increasing and then decreasing ratio sizes.
