Abstract This is the protocol for a Campbell systematic review. The objectives are as follows. The proposed evidence and gap map will present relevant process evaluations and other studies of barriers and facilitators, ...

Platinum nanoflowers (Pt NFs) composed of an ordered assembly of nanoparticles were synthesized by an ethanol reduction of [PtCl6]2– under a reflux condition (85 °C) at pH 2.5 in the presence of PVP (molecular weight ...

Microring resonators (MRRs) are the important devices for the development of silicon-based optoelectronic integrated chips. Their composition of optical modules, such as optical modulators, switches, and optical logic ga...

Abstract Background Globally, almost 1.6 billion individuals lack adequate housing. Many accommodation‐based approaches have evolved across the globe to incorporate additional support and services beyond delivery of ho...

Silver colloid based nanostructures are a very common means of achieving strong SERS signals. This is due to the hot spots that are formed in between the nanoparti‐ cles, as well as their ease of synthesis. They are fr...

The catalytic conversion of palm oil was carried out over four zeolite catalysts—Y, ZSM-5, Y-ZSM-5 hybrid, and Y/ZSM-5 composite—to produce jet biofuel with high amount of alkanes and low amount of aromatic hydrocarb...

Graphite was exfoliated to graphene by tip sonic using sodium cholate as a surfactant in the presence of Millipore water as a medium. The use of water as a solvent for exfoliation purposes is very important due to its en...

The synthesis of silver nanoparticles of varying size has been achieved using different molar concentrations of NaOH while the effect of changing the temperature has been studied. AgNO3, gelatine, glucose and NaOH are us...

This Cochrane‐Campbell systematic review examines the effects of group‐based parenting programmes on parents' psychosocial health. The review summarise findings from 48 studies conducted in various countries and sett...

This Campbell systematic review assesses the effectiveness of home‐based child development interventions in improving children's developmental outcomes. The review summarises findings from seven studies. Two of the stu...

Gold nanoparticles (AuNPs) have been investigated extensively in the past twenty years as a sensitizing agent in photon radiotherapy. Targeted delivery of AuNPs to specific sites in cells and tissues contributes to highl...

This review assessed the effectiveness of interventions for improving outcomes among street‐connected children and young people, and for reducing some important health‐related risks; and to improve access to and inte...

Abstract Background Lack of access to and use of water, sanitation and hygiene (WASH) cause 1.6 million deaths every year, of which 1.2 million are due to gastrointestinal illnesses like diarrhoea and acute respiratory i...

This Campbell systematic review examines the empirical research on the effectiveness of female genital mutilation/cutting (‘FGM/C’) interventions to reduce the occurrence of FGM/C practices in the 28 African countrie...

This Campbell systematic review examines whether kinship care is more effective than foster care in ensuring the safety, permanency and wellbeing of children removed from their home for maltreatment. The review summarize...

In this work, we report the room temperature ferromagnetism in Sn1‐xFexO2 and Sn1‐xNixO2 (x = 0.00, 0.03 and 0.05) nano‐crystalline powders. All the samples were prepared using co‐precipitation me...

Abstract Despite the demonstrated effectiveness of vaccines, varying levels of hesitancy were observed among healthcare and long‐term care workers, who were prioritized in the roll out of COVID‐19 vaccines due to the...

Abstract The research question guiding the production of the youth employment evidence and gap map (EGM) is stated as follows: What is the nature and extent of the evidence base of impact evaluations and systematic revie...

In this paper we present a rapid and simple onepot method to obtain gold nanoparticles functionalized with folic acid using a photochemistry method. The bioconjugate folic acid-gold nanoparticle was generated in one step...

Micro-capillaries with an engineered hidden surface were produced via the self-rolling of polymer thin films whose surface was photochemically modified so as to coat it with silver nanoparticles. The polymer films consis...

This study reported the synthesis of aqueous dispersions of highly stable silver nanoparticles (AgNPs) using gamma radiation with gum acacia (GA) as the stabilizing and protecting agent. The formation of nanosized silver...

A nanosilver composite plant medium with a good antimicrobial capability was successfully prepared via a two-step method in this work. First, nanosilver particles were prepared in a silver nitrate (AgNO3) solution by usi...

Polymerized polypeptide nanomicelles have attracted much attention as novel drug carriers because of their good biocompatibility and degradability. To prepare doxorubicin (DOX)-loaded nanomicelles, an amphiphilic peptide...

This Campbell systematic review examines the effects of recovery schools on student behavioral and academic outcomes, compared to the effects of non‐recovery schools. The review summarizes evidence from one quasi‐exp...
