OBJECTIVE: This study evaluated the effects of a 6-week osteoarthritis (OA) exercise and education intervention on metabolic health markers, including blood pressure (BP), glycated haemoglobin (HbA1c), high-density lipoprotein (HDL), cholesterol levels and weight in individuals with both OA and diabetes.METHODS: Data originated from the Swedish Osteoarthritis and Diabetes cohort, which is composed

Introduction: Acute exacerbation of chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (AECOPD) may cause stress-induced transient acute cardiac dysfunction through myocardial stunning, in the form of exacerbation-triggered Takotsubo syndrome (referred to as Takotsubo stunning). Although prior studies suggest an association between AECOPD and transient cardiac dysfunction, existing evidence is limited to retro
ABSTRACT: Introduction / Rationale: The idea to facilitate development and learning originated from research engaging children and adults with profound cognitive disabilities in powered wheelchair practice (Driving to Learn). Later elaborations led to the development of the tool Assessment of Learning Process (ALP) including the facilitating approach. Objectives: To increase the understanding of t
During the upcoming LHC Long Shutdown 3 the ALICE experiment will upgrade its 3 Inner Tracking System (ITS2) layers to ITS3. The final design of ITS3 will have silicon sensors of up to 26 cm × 10 cm, thinned to 50 μm and bent into a cylindrical shape. The sensor prototypes developed are MOnolithic Stitched Sensors (MOSS) that are made of 10 Repeated Sensor Units (RSU). A babyMOSS sensor, consistin
Vitrified bonded aluminum oxide grinding wheels are widespread in use for many applications in grinding, such as internal plunge grinding. However, there are challenges when it comes to the measurement, analysis and (geometric) modeling of their topography, which is crucial to understand and model the influence of the topography on the process behavior. Methodological advances allow for the detail
BACKGROUND: This study aimed to evaluate the prevalence of pathogenic/likely pathogenic cardiomyopathy variant carriers in a multiancestry US population and examine the risk of adverse clinical outcomes. METHODS: This retrospective cohort study included multiancestry US adults aged ≥18 years with sequencing data from the All of Us Research Program. Pathogenic/likely pathogenic variants in cardiomy
Mango production plays a vital role in rural livelihoods in Mozambique, yet post-harvest losses remain high, ranging from 25% to over 50%, due to inadequate preservation methods. Improved solar drying technologies offer a sustainable solution by extending shelf life and enhancing product quality. However, their adoption among smallholder mango farmers remains limited. This study investigates the k
OBJECTIVE: To synthesise evidence related to the dissemination and implementation (D&I) of injury prevention interventions for female, woman and/or girl (female/woman/girl) athletes.DESIGN: Scoping review.DATA SOURCES: MEDLINE, APA PsycInfo, Cochrane Databases for Systematic Review, Cochrane Central Register for Controlled Trials Registry, EMBASE, CINAHL, SPORTDiscus, ERIC, ProQuest Dissertati
Many studies that use an automated sorption balance to determine a water vapor sorption isotherm for wood collect data until the moisture content change is less than or equal to 0.002% min−1 (20 µg g−1 min−1). This stop criterion has been claimed to give errors in equilibrium moisture content (EMC) predictions of less than 0.001 g g−1 but over the past 10 years, studies have shown that the actual
INTRODUCTION: Blood-based biomarkers (BBMs) have revolutionized Alzheimer's disease diagnosis and monitoring. Their pre-analytical stability requires scrutiny. This study assessed pre-analytical effects to inform a standardized sample handling protocol. METHODS: Assessed pre-analytical variations included collection tube type, hemolysis, centrifugation settings, centrifugation/storage delays, tube
Climate warming is expected to influence the prevalence of vector-transmitted parasites. Understanding the extent to which this is ongoing, or has already occurred, requires empirical data from populations monitored over long periods of time, but these studies are sparse. Further, vector-disease research involving human health is often influenced by disease control efforts that supersede natural t
The non-collective and collective high-spin configurations in selected A ∼ 90 (Z = 42-45, N = 46-49) nuclei are analysed within the configuration-dependent shell-correction approach using the cranked Nilsson potential. With this method, various high-spin features, such as shape coexistence, shape changes, band termination and superdeformation are studied along the yrast line. We concentrate on the
Background: Co-occurring substance use disorders, and mental disorders are associated with significant suffering, high risks of violent reoffending and relapse in both substance use and psychotic episodes. Treatment for co-occurring substance use disorders in forensic mental health settings would benefit from incorporating patients’ understanding of their disorders. Method: Using an interpretative
