Reporting of Classroom-Based Morphological Awareness Instruction and Intervention for Kindergarten to Grade 3 Students in the Literature: A Scoping Review.

PURPOSE: The purpose of this scoping review was to document how the literature reports morphological awareness instruction and interventions delivered by speech-language pathologists (SLPs) and/or educators in classroom settings for kindergarten to Grade 3 students. METHOD: We followed the Joanna Briggs Institute's methodology for scoping reviews and the Preferred Reporting Items for Systematic Reviews and Meta-Analyses Extension for Scoping Reviews reporting guidelines. Six relevant databases were searched systematically with article screening and selection completed by two reviewers calibrated for reliability. For data charting, one reviewer extracted content and a second reviewer verified it was pertinent to the review question. Charting for the reported elements of morphological awareness instruction and interventions was guided by the Rehabilitation Treatment Specification System. RESULTS: The database search yielded 4,492 records. After removal of duplicates and screening, 47 articles were selected for inclusion. Interrater reliability for source selection exceeded the pre-established criterion of k = .61. Our analysis generated a comprehensive description of the elements of morphological awareness instruction as reported in the included articles. CONCLUSIONS: Our findings provide school-based SLPs and educators a systematic means of reviewing the literature to identify key elements of morphological awareness instruction in published articles for application of evidence-based practices with fidelity, thus helping to close the research-to-practice gap. Our manifest content analysis revealed reporting of the elements for classroom-based morphological awareness instruction was varied, and in some cases, underspecified in the articles included in our study. Implications for clinical practice and future research to advance knowledge and promote implementation of evidence-based practices by SLPs and educators in today's classrooms are discussed.

Changes in interpretation of spirometry by implementing the GLI 2012 reference equations: impact on patients tested in a hospital-based PFT lab in a large metropolitan city.

BACKGROUND: The Global Lung Function Initiative (GLI-2012) focused on race/ethnicity as an important factor in determining reference values. This study evaluated the effects of changing from Canadian reference equations developed from an all-Caucasian cohort with European ancestry to the GLI-2012 on the interpretation of spirometry in a multiethnic population and aimed to identify the ethnic groups affected by discrepant interpretations. METHODS: Clinically indicated spirometry in a multiethnic population (aged 20-80 years) collected from 2018 to 2021 was analysed. The predicted and lower limit of normal (LLN) values were calculated using three sets of reference equations: Canadian, GLI-race/ethnic-based (GLI-Race) and GLI-race/ethnic-neutral (GLI-Other). We compared the prevalence of concordance in the abnormal diagnoses (defined as

Probing Graphene Interfacial Reactivity via Simultaneous and Colocalized Raman-Scanning Electrochemical Microscopy Imaging and Interrogation.

Addressing challenges in interfacial electrochemistry requires multimodal approaches that correlate the local structure and reactivity of materials with high spatial and temporal versatility. Here, we introduce spatiotemporally correlated Raman spectroscopy and scanning electrochemical microscopy (SECM) to study the impact that structural heterogeneities, interfacial decomposition products, and layer number have on the electron-transfer properties of graphene electrodes. By colocalizing the SECM probe and laser line, we successfully obtained congruent SECM and Raman images at a rate of 5 s per pixel with sub-10 µm resolution, obtaining full spectra per pixel at a signal-to-noise ratio as high as ∼20. SECM imaging of a micropatterned graphene electrode showed its reactivity to be highly dependent on the intensity of the G peak, an indicator of the number of graphene layers. We further monitored the impact of excursions to positive potentials using the [Fe(CN)6]3-/4- redox pair as mediator. Raman-SECM allowed us to decouple the contributions to the redox response of different structural effects including exfoliation, increase in defect density, and surface film formation, on the same site and in real time. The coupling of in situ Raman spectroscopy and SECM provides a powerful surface-sensitive analytical approach to elucidate interfacial properties relevant to energy, catalysis, and sensing.

Highly Z-selective metathesis homocoupling of terminal olefins.

Mo and W MonoAryloxide-Pyrrolide (MAP) olefin metathesis catalysts can couple terminal olefins to give as high as >98% Z-products in moderate to high yields with as little as 0.2% catalyst. Results are reported for 1-hexene, 1-octene, allylbenzene, allyltrimethylsilane, methyl-10-undecenoate, methyl-9-decenoate, allylB(pinacolate), allylOBenzyl, allylNHTosyl, and allylNHPh. It is proposed that high Z-selectivity is achieved because a large aryloxide only allows metallacyclobutanes to form that contain adjacent cis substituents and because isomerization of Z-product to E-product can be slow in that same steric environment.

Fundamental studies of tungsten alkylidene imido monoalkoxidepyrrolide complexes.

Two diastereomers of the monoalkoxidepyrrolide (MAP) species, W(NAr)(CH(2))(Me(2)Pyr)(OR*) (1; Ar = 2,6-diisopropylphenyl, Me(2)Pyr = 2,5-dimethylpyrrolide, OR* = (R)-3,3'-dibromo-2'-(tert-butyldimethylsilyloxy)-5,5',6,6',7,7',8,8'-octahydro-1,1'-binaphthyl-2-olate), were generated through addition of R*OH to W(NAr)(CH(2))(Me(2)Pyr)(2). The unsubstituted tungstacyclobutane species, W(NAr)(C(3)H(6))(Me(2)Pyr)(OR*) (2), was isolated by treating the mixture of diastereomers of 1 with ethylene. An X-ray study revealed 2 to have a trigonal bipyramidal structure in which the imido and phenoxide ligands are in axial positions. A variety of NMR experiments were carried out on 1 and 2. The major findings are the following: (i) the methylidene ligands in the two diastereomers of 1 rotate readily about the W horizontal lineC bond (k = 2-7 s(-1) at 22 degrees C); (ii) NMR studies are consistent with 2 breaking up to give an intermediate alkylidene/ethylene complex, (R)- and (S)-W(CH(2))(C(2)H(4)); and (iii) the ethylene in the (R)-W(CH(2))(C(2)H(4)) intermediate can rotate about the W-ethylene bond axis at approximately the same rate as 2 re-forms or ethylene is lost to give 1. Compound 1 reacts with trimethylphosphine to yield (R)-1(PMe(3)). Two intermediate PMe(3) adducts were observed and found to convert to (R)-1(PMe(3)) in an intramolecular fashion with an average rate constant at 5 degrees C of approximately 1.4 x 10(-4) s(-1). Both neophylidene (4) and methylidene (5) MAP species containing 2,3,5,6-tetraphenylphenoxide ligand also were prepared. Compound 5 can be heated to 80 degrees C, where methylidene rotation about the W=C bond is facile and observable in a variable-temperature (1)H NMR spectrum. A (1)H-(1)H EXSY spectrum of 5 in benzene-d(6) at 20 degrees C showed that the methylidene protons are exchanging with k = 90 s(-1). A structure of 5(THF) showed it to be a square pyramid with the methylidene ligand in the apical position and THF coordinated trans to the imido ligand. Exposure of 5 to ethylene generated the tungstacyclobutane complex, W(NAr)(C(3)H(6))(Me(2)Pyr)(OR) (6), whose structure is analogous to that of 2. Treatment of 5 with PMe(3) yielded yellow 5(PMe(3)), an X-ray study of which revealed it to be a square pyramid with the methylidene ligand in the apical position and the phosphine trans to the pyrrolide. These studies suggest that metallacyclobutane intermediates in metathesis reactions with MAP species are likely to contain axial imido and phenoxide ligands, that metallacycles are formed when an olefin approaches the metal in a MAP species trans to the pyrrolide, and that the configuration at the metal inverts as a consequence of each forward metathesis step.

Z-selective olefin metathesis processes catalyzed by a molybdenum hexaisopropylterphenoxide monopyrrolide complex.

The molybdenum-based monoaryloxide monopyrrolide (MAP) species, Mo(NAd)(CHCMe(2)Ph)(C(4)H(4)N)(HIPTO) (2a), which contains "small" imido (Ad = 1-adamantyl) and "large" aryloxide (HIPTO = O-2,6(2,4,6-i-Pr(3)C(6)H(2))C(6)H(3)) ligands, catalyzes Z-selective metathesis reactions as a consequence of intermediate metallacyclobutane species not being able to have an (anti) substituent pointing toward the HIPTO group. Ring-opening metathesis polymerization (ROMP) of dicarbomethoxynorbornadiene (DCMNBD) with 2% 2a in toluene leads to >99% cis and >99% syndiotactic poly(DCMNBD), while ROMP of cyclooctene and 1,5-cyclooctadiene (300 equiv) with initiator 2a leads to poly(cyclooctene) and poly(cyclooctadiene) that have cis contents of >99%; all are previously unknown microstructures. Z-Selectivity is also observed in the metathesis of cis-4-octene and cis-3-hexene by initiator 2a to give cis-3-heptene.
