Exploring the health and service utilisation of general practice patients with a history of adverse childhood experiences (ACEs): an observational study using electronic health rec... by Mark A Bellis, Karen Hughes, Katie Hardcastle, Catherine A Sharp

“…Objectives To examine the relationships between adverse childhood experiences (ACEs), chronic health and health service utilisation among a sample of general practice patients.Design Cross-sectional observational study using anonymised data from electronic health records for 763 patients.Setting Four general practices in northwest England and North Wales.Outcome measures Patient demographic data (age, gender); body mass index; self-reported smoking status; self-reported ACEs; diagnosis of chronic health conditions; current mental health problems; total number of service contacts and repeat medication use in the previous 6 months.Results A history of ACEs (experiencing abuse or neglect as a child, and/or growing up in a household characterised by violence, substance use, mental health problems or criminal behaviour) was strongly independently associated with current mental health problems, smoking and chronic obstructive pulmonary disease, showing a dose–response relationship with level of ACE exposure. …”

Tunable High-Frequency Acoustoelectric Current Oscillations in Fluorine-Doped Single-Walled Carbon Nanotubes by Daniel Sekyi-Arthur, Samuel Yeboah Mensah, Kofi Wi-Adu, Kwadwo Anokye Dompreh, Raymond Edziah

“…The ADC was observed to exhibit a nonlinearity, that resulted from the carrier distribution function’s distortion as a result of interaction with the acoustic phonons, which had strong nonlinear effects. Theoretically, we demonstrated that the dynamics of space charge instabilities, due to Bragg reflection of Bloch oscillating carriers in the FSWCNT’s miniband, were the only factors which contributed to the creation of radiation in the terahertz (THz) frequency range. …”
