Improving Cochlear Implant Performance in the Wind Through Spectral Masking Release: A Multi-microphone and Multichannel StrategyObjectives: Adopting the omnidirectional microphone (OMNI) mode and reducing low-frequency gain are the two most commonly used wind noise reduction strategies in hearing devices. The objective of this study was to compare the effectiveness of these two strategies on cochlear implant users' speech-understanding abilities and perceived sound quality in wind noise. We also...
Up-regulating microRNA-203 alleviates myocardial remodeling and cell apoptosis through down-regulating PTP1B in rats with myocardial infarctionMyocardial infarction (MI) is one of cardiovascular diseases with high incidence and mortality. MicroRNAs (miRNAs), as post-transcriptional regulators of genes, are involved in many diseases, including cardiovascular diseases. The aim of present study was to determine whether miR-203 was functional in MI therapy and how it worked. Left anterior descending...
Evaluating the performance of automated sphygmomanometers using a patient simulatorBackground and objective: Automated sphygmomanometers use the oscillometric method to measure blood pressure, which is based on an algorithm that relates the amplitude of the oscillometric waveform pulses and the pressure inside the cuff. Validation uses empirical information from clinical trials conducted by each manufacturer. Consequently, measurement algorithms are not harmonized, being based on distinct arterial...

Corruption and anti-corruption: a folklore problem?AbstractThe Charbonneau Inquiry in Quebec, Canada, uncovered a complex nexus of collusion and corruption in the awarding of public works construction contracts. The aim of this article is to better illustrate and understand how corruption was perceived and collectively understood in the public works sector prior to the revelations of the Charbonneau Inquiry. This article argues that a 'folklore' of corruption was prevalent through which civil servants...

Does Consumer Financial Management Behavior Relate to Their Financial Access?AbstractFinancial management behavior and financial access are important to overall financial well-being, yet have not been well studied. This study contributes to the literature of financial access and financial management behavior by empirically exploring relevant factors for each and the relationship between them. The data are derived from the 2012 and 2015 National Financial Capacity Study. Exploratory factor analysis...
TERT Promoter Mutation Spatial Heterogeneity in a Metastatic Follicular Thyroid Carcinoma: Implications for Clinical Work-UpAbstractFollicular thyroid carcinoma (FTC) is not routinely diagnosed by a preoperative fine needle aspiration biopsy (FNAB), and the final diagnosis relies on histopathological criteria visible upon microscopic examination of the excised tumor. Several markers have been proposed as helpful in the identification of follicular thyroid tumors with malignant potential and worse...
Comprehensive Application of Autologous Costal Cartilage Grafts in Rhino- and MentoplastyBackground: Underdevelopment of nose and chin in East Asians is quite common. Rhinoplasty and mentoplasty are effective procedures to solve the above-depicted defects and can achieve remarkable cosmetic effects. An autologous costal cartilage graft has become an ideal material for rhinoplasty, especially for revision surgery. However, many problems in the clinical application of costal cartilage remain unresolved....
Evaluating the Effects of an Ophthalmic Solution of Coenzyme Q10 and Vitamin E in Open-Angle Glaucoma Patients: A Study ProtocolAbstractIntroductionThe CoQun® study is a multicenter, controlled trial aimed to evaluate the neuroprotective effects of Coqun®, an ophthalmic solution of Coenzyme q10 (CoQ10) and Vitamin E (VitE), in patients affected by primary open-angle glaucoma (POAG). Pre-clinical studies and small non-controlled clinical trials have previously shown a potential role of CoQ10 and VitE...
Gender-related differences in psychometric properties of WHO Disability Assessment Schedule 2.0Objective of this study was to investigate the gender-related differential item function of 12-item WHODAS 2.0 amongst patients with chronic musculoskeletal pain. This was a cross-sectional survey study among 1,988 patients at a university Physical and Rehabilitation Medicine outpatient clinic. To assess DIF, WHODAS 2.0 items were dichotomized as `none' rated by respondents as `0' versus `any limitation'...
Behavioral States Modulate Sensory Processing in Early DevelopmentAbstractPurpose of ReviewSleep-wake states modulate cortical activity in adults. In infants, however, such modulation is less clear; indeed, early cortical activity comprises bursts of neural activity driven predominantly by peripheral sensory input. Consequently, in many studies of sensory development in rodents, sensory processing has been carefully investigated, but the modulatory role of behavioral state has typically been ignored.Recent...

Cognitive Aids in Obstetric Units: Design, Implementation, and UseObstetrics has unique considerations for high stakes and dynamic clinical care of ≥2 patients. Obstetric crisis situations require efficient and coordinated responses from the entire multidisciplinary team. Actions that teams perform, or omit, can strongly impact peripartum and perinatal outcomes. Cognitive aids are tools that aim to improve patient safety, efficiency in health care management, and patient outcomes. However, they are...
Focused Transesophageal Echocardiography for Bedside Diagnosis of Iatrogenic Cardiac Perforation: A Case ReportWe describe an extremely rare complication of chest tube placement and focused transesophageal echocardiography (TEE) in the diagnosis of a life-threatening condition. It illustrates the value and utility of point-of-care ultrasound (POCUS) by way of a focused TEE in confirming a diagnosis and contributing toward the expeditious operative management of a life-threatening scenario. POCUS...
The Small RNA Repertoire of Small Extracellular Vesicles Isolated From Donor Kidney Preservation Fluid Provides a Source for Biomarker Discovery for Organ Quality and Posttransplantation Graft FunctionBackground. Delayed graft function (DGF) after kidney transplantation is negatively associated with long-term graft function and survival. Kidney function after transplantation depends on multiple factors, both donor- and recipient-associated. Prediction of posttransplantation graft function would allow...
Propranolol Attenuates Cognitive, Learning and Memory Deficits in a Murine Model of Traumatic Brain InjuryIntroduction β-blockers have been shown to improve survival after traumatic brain injury (TBI), however, the impact of continuous dosage of β-blockers on cognitive function has not been elucidated. We hypothesized that a daily dose of propranolol can improve memory, learning and cognitive function following TBI. Study Design Twenty male-C57BL-mice were subjected to a cortical-controlled moderate...

Meta-analysis on a Decade of Testing Corridor Efficacy: What New Have we Learned?AbstractPurpose of ReviewCorridors are widely considered as a strategy to mitigate effects of habitat fragmentation on biodiversity. There are, however, lingering concerns about whether corridors work as intended and whether managing for connectivity in fragmented landscapes is even important for biodiversity conservation. In response, numerous manipulative and natural experiments have been conducted to test the effectiveness...
