THE IMPACT OF PERCEIVED EFFECTIVENESS OF NON-PHARMACEUTICAL INTERVENTIONS (NPIS) ON ATTITUDE TOWARD USAGE, BEHAVIORAL INTENTIONS, AND ACTUAL USAGE

The Impact of Perceived Effectiveness of Non-Pharmaceutical Interventions (NPIs) on Attitude Toward Usage, Behavioral Intentions, and Actual Usage

The purpose is to examine the impact of the perceived effectiveness of NPIs (e.g., hand hygiene, respiratory etiquette, face masks) on behavioral intentions, attitudes toward usage, and actual use against the backdrop of the Technology Acceptance Model (TAM).Responses were gathered with a survey instrument from Canadian respondents ( N = 278).PLS-S

B-BOX genes: genome-wide identification, evolution and their contribution to pollen growth in pear (Pyrus bretschneideri Rehd.)

Abstract Background The B-BOX (BBX) proteins have important functions in regulating plant growth and development.In plants, the BBX gene family has been identified in several plants, such as rice, Arabidopsis and tomato.However, there still lack a genome-wide survey of BBX genes in pear.Results In the present study, a total of 25 BBX genes were ide

RNA interference targeting NOX4 protects visual function in an experimental model of retinal detachment by alleviating blood-retinal barrier damage

AIM: To observe the effects of the inhibition of NADPH oxidase 4 (NOX4) expression on the retinal vascular barriers and visual function after retinal detachment (RD).METHODS: RD model was established 3wk after adeno-associaned virus vector injection.The retinal tissue was harvested 3d after RD, and the death of retinal vascular endothelial cells an
