Disposable hygiene products, such as gloves and aprons, are commonly and frequently used in healthcare environments and are essential to maintain the hygiene standard. They are placed in different types of carriers, primarily in examination rooms and are mounted on the walls. This creates some difficulties for product development and fast access because not all hygiene products fit all carriers an

Newcomers, defined in Canada as foreign-born individuals who are either immigrants or refugees, but may also include students and undocumented migrants, face numerous barriers to HPV vaccination.

This scoping review assessed the surgical backlog in Latin America and the Caribbean (LAC) due to COVID-19 and identified mitigation strategies. We searched seven databases for citations from December 2019 to December 2022, focusing on LAC patients with cancelled or postponed procedures. We registered our protocol at Open Science Framework (https://osf.io/x2nd8) and adhered to PRISMA-ScR guideline

Large language models can transform individuals’ mental health descriptions into scores that correlate with rating scales approaching theoretical upper limits. However, such analyses have combined word- and text responses with little known about their differences. We develop response formats ranging from closed-ended to open-ended: (a) select words from lists, write (b) descriptive words, (c) phra

During severe storms, high waves and water levels can reach the subaerial portion of the beach and cause significant morphological change at elevations where the waves cannot reach under typical sea conditions. Coastal dunes may suffer direct wave impact and erode, increasing the likelihood of overwash and breaching, potentially flooding low-lying areas behind the dunes. Barrier islands are also v

OBJECTIVE: Inter-regional comparison of health-reform outcomes in south-eastern Europe (SEE).METHODS: Macro-indicators were obtained from the WHO Health for All Database. Inter-regional comparison among post-Semashko, former Yugoslavia, and prior-1989-free-market SEE economies was conducted.RESULTS: United Nations Development Program Human Development Index growth was strongest among prior-free-ma

BACKGROUND: Direct-to-consumer telemedicine is an increasingly used modality to access primary care. Previous research on assessment using synchronous virtual visits showed mixed results regarding antibiotic prescription rates, and research on assessment using asynchronous chat-based eVisits is lacking.OBJECTIVE: The goal of the research was to investigate if eVisit management of sore throat, othe

Radiotherapy (RT) is a repetitive treatment divided into daily fractions, scheduled five days a week from one up to several weeks depending upon the child’s diagnosis. Although RT is painless and non-invasive, children experience anxiety. Depending on the child’s age, anxiety or inability to comply, they may require sedation or general anaesthesia (GA), meaning that some children receive GA over 3
