Rethinking health-care systems to tackle social isolation and frailty

Author(s): Mehrabi F; Pomeroy ML; Hoogendijk EO; Cudjoe TKM; Oremus M; Bandeen-Roche K; Oga-Omenka C;

Ageing populations face increasing burdens from frailty and social isolation, which are two inter-related public health challenges that increase the risk of dementia, hospitalisation, and mortality. Despite health systems' potential to intervene, the co-occurrence of frailty and social isolat ...

Rigorous Quantum-Mechanical Modeling of Tunneling-Based Structural Changes Associated with Line Shifts in Optical Spectroscopy Experiments in Pigment-Protein Complexes

Author(s): Eng-Michell J; Yi B; Tan X; Garashchuk S; Zazubovich V;

Light-induced and spontaneously occurring (in the dark) spectral shifts can be observed in a wide variety of systems where pigments are embedded in a somewhat amorphous environment, for instance, organic glasses, polymers, and proteins. They are observed directly in single-molecule spectroscopy experiments and serve as the basis for nonphotochemical spect ...

ADPv2: A hierarchical histological tissue type-annotated dataset for potential biomarker discovery of colorectal disease

Author(s): Yang Z; Li K; Ramandi SG; Brassard P; Khellaf A; Trinh VQ; Zhang J; Chen L; Rowsell C; Varma S; Plataniotis K; Hosseini MS;

Computational pathology (CPath) leverages histopathology images to enhance diagnostic precision and reproducibility in clinical pathology. However, publicly available datasets for CPath that are annotated with extensive histological tissue type (HTT) taxonomies at a granular level remain scarce d ...

Tuned to walk: cue type, beat perception, and gait dynamics during rhythmic stimulation in aging

Author(s): Parker A; Dalla Bella S; Penhune VB; Young L; Grenet D; Li KZH;

Rhythmic auditory cueing (RAC) improves spatiotemporal gait parameters in older adults, often using isochronous rhythmic cues (i.e., with constant inter-beat-intervals). However, healthy gait contains fractal-like variability, (i.e., with persistent long-range correlations; LRC) which is disturbed when walking to isochronous cues. Embedding auditory cues ...

The prevalence and predictors of aggressive obsessions in obsessive-compulsive disorder: A meta-analytic review

Author(s): Fawcett EJ; Morris Q; Lahey C; Corran C; Krause S; Bishop OC; Rash JA; Carter J; Fawcett JM;

Obsessive-compulsive disorder (OCD) is a heterogeneous condition often characterized in relation to major symptom dimensions, including contamination, symmetry/exactness, religious, aggressive, sexual, hoarding/saving, somatic, and miscellaneous. Aggressive obsessions, defined as intrusive though ...

Shaping a dynamic open platform for the holistic assessment of micro- and nano-plastic emissions from plastic products

Author(s): Wang Z; Chen Z; Zhang B; Feng Q; Chen Z; Lee K; An C;

The widespread use of plastics and their improper disposal have released a large number of micro- and nano-plastics (MNPs) into various environmental media. Although the release of MNPs from individual plastic products has been widely reported, there is a lack of a holistic assessment framework to determine the overall release of plastic products to soil, ...

Longhorn beetles (Coleoptera: Cerambycidae) community composition around different boreal infrastructures

Author(s): Noor S; Despland E; Montoro Girona M; Work T;

Wood processing, mining, and recreational infrastructures facilitate the transport and establishment of woodboring insects. Longhorn beetles (Coleoptera: Cerambycidae) are woodborers that typically develop in stressed or dead trees and are inadvertently transported in wood products, creating opportunities for exotic species to invade and expand their rang ...

Surgery resident pain knowledge and perceptions: gaps and implications for medical training in Canada

Author(s): Burcheri AJ; Galvin CR; Piché N; Frett MJ; Alschuler K; Alberts NM;

Introduction: Healthcare provider pain knowledge is critical in surgical settings, where effective pain management plays a key role in the prevention of chronic postsurgical pain. Despite this, little is known about the pain training and knowledge of surgical residents. Objective: To comprehensively assess Canadian surgery residents' knowledge and at ...

Obstructive Sleep Apnea Risk and Mental Health Conditions Among Older Canadian Adults in the Canadian Longitudinal Study on Aging

Author(s): Kendzerska T; Mallick R; Li W; Robillard R; Taler V; Webber C; Saymeh M; Dang-Vu TT; Tanuseputro P; Fiedorowicz JG;

Importance: Despite plausible mechanisms linking obstructive sleep apnea (OSA) and mental health conditions, prospective studies from representative samples are needed to estimate temporal associations between OSA and mental health conditions during aging. Objective: To evaluate whether high ris ...
