Preexisting Mental Health Disorders Are Associated With Acute Clinical Presentation and Longitudinal Recovery Trajectories in Adolescents With Concussion

Author(s): Iuliano SG; Gagnon IJ; Iverson GL; Cook NE; Zemek R; Teel EF;

This secondary analysis examined the association between preexisting mental health conditions and clinical recovery trajectories in adolescents with concussion. Adolescents (13-17; n = 1238) completed clinical assessments (Post-Concussion Symptom Inventory [PCSI] =48 hours postinjury; PCSI/ Pediatric Quality of Life [PedsQL] for 3 months) and were categor ...

Cross-species evaluation of TANGO2 homologs, including HRG-9 and HRG-10 in em Caenorhabditis elegans, /em challenges a proposed role in heme trafficking

Author(s): Sandkuhler SE; Youngs KS; Gottipalli O; Owlett LD; Bandora MB; Naaz A; Kim E; Wang L; Wojtovich A; Gupta V; Sacher M; Mackenzie SJ;

Mutations in the TANGO2 gene are associated with a severe neurometabolic disorder in humans, often presenting with life-threatening metabolic crisis. However, the function of TANGO2 protein remains unknown. It has recently been proposed that TANGO2 transports heme within and between cells, from a ...

Lignin phenol abundances and ratios are modulated by their interactions with iron hydroxides in sediments

Author(s): Moritz A; Ezzati M; Gélinas Y;

Iron hydroxides play a key role in the preservation of organic matter in soils and sediments, yet the specificity and extent of their interactions with lignin-derived phenols-important source indicators for terrestrial organic matter-remain poorly understood in aquatic systems. In this study, we analyzed surface and downcore sediments along the terrestria ...

Proximal sound printing: direct 3D printing of microstructures on polymers

Author(s): Foroughi S; Habibi M; Packirisamy M;

Proximal Sound Printing (PSP) is a new class of additive manufacturing (AM) processes where on-demand polymerization occurs through ultrasound waves interacting with printing material right at the proximity of the acoustic aperture by inducing cavitation. Despite recent developments in sound-based AM techniques, inherent practical limitations still remain ...

Statistical shape model-based estimation of registration error in computer-assisted total knee arthroplasty

Author(s): Gheflati B; Mirzaei M; Zuhars J; Rottoo S; Rivaz H;

Purpose: Computer-assisted surgical navigation systems have been developed to improve the precision of total knee arthroplasty (TKA) by providing real-time guidance on implant alignment relative to patient anatomy. However, surface registration remains a key source of error that can propagate through the surgical workflow. This study investigates how pati ...

Metaphors in context and in isolation: Familiarity, aptness, concreteness, metaphoricity, and structure norms for 300 two-word expressions

Author(s): Pissani L; de Almeida RG;

Familiarity, aptness, concreteness, metaphoricity, and structural norms for 300 two-word English metaphorical expressions (e.g., broken heart, early bird), presented in sentence context and in isolation, were obtained from 164 participants. Familiarity was conceived as the extent to which participants had previously heard or read that expression. Aptness ...

Towards smart PFAS management: Integrating artificial intelligence in water and wastewater systems

Author(s): Yaghoobian S; An J; Jeong DW; Hwang JH;

Artificial intelligence (AI) and machine learning (ML) are increasingly integrated into Per- and polyfluoroalkyl substances (PFAS) research; however, the field remains fragmented with substantial variation in modeling objectives. This review provides one of the most comprehensive and detailed syntheses to date of AI/ML methods across the PFAS contaminatio ...

Adaptive sliding mode fault-tolerant control of an over-actuated hybrid VTOL fixed-wing UAV under transition flight

Author(s): Wang B; Zhao H; Hu X; Shen Y; Li N;

In this study, an innovative adaptive sliding mode fault-tolerant control approach is developed for an over-actuated vertical takeoff and landing (VTOL) fixed-wing unmanned aerial vehicle (UAV) with the capability to suppress overestimation of adaptive parameters. This method is designed to effectively address model uncertainties and actuator faults witho ...

Intra-individual variability in cognitive performance predicts falls in older adults with chronic stroke

Author(s): Dimri V; Davis JC; Boa Sorte Silva NC; Balbim GM; Eng JJ; Liu-Ambrose T;

Background: Common consequences of a stroke include impaired motor and cognitive function, with both being linked to increased falls and frailty. Intra-individual variability (IIV) of cognitive performance, which refers to the within-person trial-to-trial variation in reaction time during cognitive tasks, may be a useful predictor for falls in older adult ...

Establishing work productivity loss norms: Absenteeism and presenteeism in a Canadian working population

Author(s): Zhang W; Qian H; L' Heureux J; Johns G; Koehoorn M; Woodcock S;

Cost-effectiveness guidelines recommend including productivity losses in economic evaluations conducted from a societal perspective. However, work productivity loss estimates, including absenteeism and presenteeism, are lacking for a general working population. This limits the ability of researchers and decision makers to comprehensively evaluate the incr ...

Design, Analysis, and Prototyping of a Multifunctional Digital Twin-Enabled Aerospace Drilling End-Effector Deployable by a Collaborative Robot

Author(s): Kazemiesfahani M; Dilfanian E; Monsarrat B; Hajzargarbashi S;

Drilling in aerospace one-up assembly demands high positional accuracy, strong clamping forces, and precise angular compensation to ensure quality in multi-layered stacks. Existing robotic solutions achieve these requirements but are costly, bulky, and unsuitable for flexible or collaborative environments. This work introduces the Advanced Collaborative M ...
