This commentary reviews the cross-sectional study by Denche-Zamorano et al. examining the relationship between pain distribution, physical activity, grip strength, exercise issues, and frailty risk. The commentary acknowledges the study's in-depth analysis of the association between widespread pain and frailty, while p…

INTRODUCTION: A near midair collision (NMAC) is defined by the Federal Aviation Administration as an event in which the crew of an aircraft perceives a situation that could lead to a midair collision or an event in which the separation between two aircraft is less than 500 feet (Federal Aviation Administration, 2018).…

Educational interventions typically center on youth displaying early academic risk, potentially overlooking those falling off track academically later in their educational careers. The current study investigated the extent to which life course transitions experienced during adolescence were linked to falling off-track…

This study's primary objective is to investigate the connection between carbon emissions and global warming by tracking how these emissions causes the climatic changes spread across the environment. Based on theories established from past observations that the effect rates for various factors, a mathematical model has…

Studying change is a critical part of psychology and science in general. Studies often treat fit as static and use between-person designs to assess change. Accordingly, potentially insightful within-person information is frequently overlooked. The current study aimed to establish the utility of reliable change methodol…

Ecological footprint (EF) and human development index (HDI) are two critical indicators for assessing sustainable development worldwide. Past studies in Africa have ignored dynamic sustainable total-factor ecological efficiency (DSTFEE) assessment. This present study proffers a novel dynamic sustainable total-factor ec…

Evaluators often neglect to question whether a program has been appropriately designed for a new context prior to a feasibility study's commencement. In this paper, we document the results of a case study that closely examined context when determining the feasibility of implementing a FoodShare outreach program in rura…

The nature-nurture debate is one that biologists often dismiss as a false dichotomy, as all phenotypic traits are the results of complex processes of gene and environment interactions. However, such dismissiveness belies the ongoing debate that is unmistakable throughout the biological and social sciences concerning th…

The author presents two examples illustrating the bias in sample-size estimates that can result from ignoring measurement error among study variables. The first example examines the impact of ignoring misclassification of the study's outcome variable on the accuracy of sample-size estimates. In addition, the author out…

The present research explored the dynamics of competitive advantages in intercollegiate athletics by investigating the contribution of intangible resources (i.e., athletic and academic reputations) on the generation of more tangible resources (i.e., human and financial resources), which in turn influence the athletic p…

Unilateral cleft lip (UCL) is one of the most common craniofacial deformities. Surgical intervention reconstructs lip and nose anatomy; however, some degree of asymmetry persists after repair. This demonstrates a need for a model for studying and improving outcomes for patients with orofacial clefts. This study's main…

The actual COVID-19 pandemic scenario has generated a context of uncertainty, helplessness, and inequality. Yet, the perception of COVID-19 risk has influenced nutritional, psychological, and physical activity patterns depending on gender. We conducted the present research with the aim of studying gender differences of…

This study evaluated the effects of cinromide in patients with Lennox-Gastaut Syndrome. No difference between cinromide and placebo was shown in terms of seizure reduction or global evaluations. This study is important, however, because it represents an effort to overcome methodologic difficulties inherent in evaluatin…

This study evaluates the relationship between the social climate from different services and the personal goal-directed activities of 224 individuals with AIDS. The study's results supported the main hypothesis that "recipient" and "participatory" service involvement uniquely influence personal goal-directed activities…

Women who are experiencing crisis situations, including homelessness, are often perceived as passive victims of their social, economic, and personal circumstances. A few studies have challenged the stereotype of homeless women as passive victims and demonstrated that they are active in seeking solutions to their proble…

BACKGROUND: The use of technological devices today is widespread. One of these devices is the smartphone. It can be argued that when smartphones are thought of as a means of communication, they can influence communication skills. AIM: The aim of this study is to determine the effect of nursing students' smartphone add…

AIM: New graduate nurses experience transition shock during the first year of their professional lives. Limited prior studies have shown how transition shock affects freshly graduated nurses' ability to provide care, but further evidence related to missed care is required. This study is a report that evaluates the rela…
