Internet-delivered therapy for alcohol misuse: engagement, satisfaction, and outcomes when patients select their preference for therapist- or self-guided treatment
CONCLUSIONS: The current study shows that ICBT for alcohol misuse is associated with reduced drinking and comorbid mental health difficulties over time, irrespective of whether patients chose to complete the course on their own or with therapist guidance.TRIAL REGISTRATION NUMBER: NCT04611854 ( https://clinicaltrials.gov/ct2/show/NCT04611854 ).PMID:38643242 | PMC:PMC11032586 | DOI:10.1186/s13722-024-00456-8 (Source: Addiction Science and Clinical Practice)

Alcohol-Induced Denaturation of Hen Egg White Lysozyme Studied by Infrared, Circular Dichroism, and Small-Angle Neutron Scattering
J Phys Chem B. 2024 Apr 20. doi: 10.1021/acs.jpcb.4c00209. Online ahead of print.ABSTRACTIn aqueous binary solvents with fluorinated alcohols, 2,2,2-trifluoroethanol (TFE) and 1,1,1,3,3,3-hexafluoroisopropanol (HFIP), and aliphatic alcohols, ethanol (EtOH) and 2-propanol (2-PrOH), the denaturation of hen egg white lysozyme (HEWL) with increasing alcohol mole fraction xA has been investigated in a wide view from the molecular vibration to the secondary and ternary structures. Circular dichroism (CD) measurement showed that the secondary structure of α-helix content of HEWL increases on adding a small amount of the fluorina...
