TL;DR: In this paper, the authors describe ionic conductivities in the 7 × 10-5 to 7× 10-10 Ω-1 cm-1 range, which permit microelectrode voltammetry in the undiluted materials, examples of which are presented.
Abstract: Interesting ionic materials can be transformed into room temperature molten salts by combining them with polyether-tailed counterions such as polyether-tailed 2-sulfobenzoate (MePEG-BzSO3-) and polyether-tailed triethylammonium (MePEG-Et3N+). Melts containing ruthenium hexamine, metal trisbipyridines, metal trisphenanthrolines, and ionic forms of aluminum quinolate, anthraquinone, phthalocyanine, and porphyrins are described. These melts exhibit ionic conductivities in the 7 × 10-5 to 7 × 10-10 Ω-1 cm-1 range, which permit microelectrode voltammetry in the undiluted materials, examples of which are presented.

TL;DR: In this article, a study was designed to test the efficacy of the fluency development lesson (FDL) as a supplement to the regular reading curriculum in urban second-grade classrooms.
Abstract: This study was designed to test the efficacy of the fluency development lesson (FDL) as a supplement to the regular reading curriculum in urban second-grade classrooms. The 10-15 min FDL, which was implemented daily for 6 months, resulted in fluency gains for students. In addition, teacher response to the FDL was singularly positive.

07 May 1997TL;DR: In this paper, the authors provided a model for polymer/cholesteric liquid crystal dispersions in which the liquid crystal phase separated from the polymer matrix to form droplets.
Abstract: Polymer/cholesteric liquid crystal dispersions are provided in which the liquid crystal phase separated from the polymer matrix to form droplets. The cholesteric liquid crystals were positive dielectric anisotropic. At a zero field condition, the liquid crystal in the droplets was bistable, that is, the liquid crystal can be in either the reflecting planar state or the scattering focal conic state. When the liquid crystal 101 was in the planar texture, the helical axis of the liquid crystal was more or less perpendicular to the cell surface; colored light 105 was Bragg reflected. When the liquid crystal 101 was in the focal conic texture, the helical axis was more or less parallel to the cell surface, incident light was scattering 106 in the forward direction.

TL;DR: Drug abuse-related factors were greater barriers to ART use in this national sample than mental disorders but once on ART, these factors were unrelated to type of therapy.
Abstract: Welcome recent advances in treatment have significantly reduced the morbidity and mortality associated with human immunodeficiency virus (HIV) type 1 infection.1,2 Yet access to these improved treatments has been inequitable,3 with serious deficiencies reported in the antiretroviral treatment of drug users.4–6 After first detection of an elevated viral load, delay before starting protease inhibitors has been reported to be longer for drug users and persons with depressive symptoms.7 Mental disorders are highly prevalent in HIV-infected persons8 as well as in substance abusers,9 and many persons with HIV are current or former drug users. Thus the relative contributions of drug abuse, mental disorders, and alcohol use to deficient ART prescribing patterns for HIV-infected persons merit examination. Health care and social support programs should be especially attentive to addressing such potentially key barriers to antiretroviral treatment.
We used data from a nationally representative sample of persons in care for HIV in 1996 to examine the effects of previous substance abuse and probable mental disorders on 2 outcomes: 1) any antiretroviral treatment and 2) highly active antiretroviral therapy (HAART) with 3 or more drugs including at least 1 protease inhibitor or non-nucleoside reverse transcriptase inhibitor among persons on combination therapy. By 1996, monotherapy was considered a less effective form of treatment10 and by 1997, treatment with only 2 reverse transcriptase inhibitors was also viewed as less acceptable.11 We predicted that persons with mental health disorders or substance abuse histories would be less likely to receive any treatment and, when treated, would be more likely to receive the “less acceptable” forms of treatment.
