A systematic review of studies published in the last decade was conducted to summarize data on the epidemiology of human papillomavirus (HPV) in the USA. A structured protocol was used to screen studies for review. Studies had to meet the following criteria: (1) the study was conducted in the USA, (2) the study populat…

Dummy headforms used for impact testing have changed little over the years, and frictional characteristics are thought not to represent the human head accurately. The frictional interface between the helmet and head is an essential factor affecting impact response. However, few studies have evaluated the coefficient of…

Forensic odontologists often must identify human remains with damaged teeth. This damage is due to high-impact accidents, violence, or disasters. This 2-part study aimed to create two 3D digital models. They should show the destructive effects of physical and chemical agents on human teeth and popular dental materials.…

The heart is a robust organ, capable of pumping nutrients and transferring oxygen throughout the body via a network of capillaries, veins and arteries, for the entirety of a human's life. However, the fragility of mammalian hearts is also evident when it becomes damaged and parts of the organ fail to function. This is…

Working on a moving platform can significantly impede human performance. Previous studies on moving vehicles have often focused on the overall impact on general task performance, whereas our study's emphasis is on precise hand movements, exploring the interaction between body motion and the escalation of task difficult…

A government-sponsored study of childhood cancer in the proximity of German nuclear power plants (German acronym KiKK) found that children < 5 years living < 5 km from plant exhaust stacks had twice the risk for contracting leukemia as those residing > 5 km. The researchers concluded that since "this result was not to…

BACKGROUND OBJECTIVES: Brucellosis, a bacterial zoonotic disease, is caused by various species of Brucella , predominantly affecting livestock. In India, human brucellosis is a significant public health concern due to the proximity between humans and animals. Moreover, under-reporting of cases and misdiagnosis of human…

CONTEXT: Studies on parenting, including feeding styles and practices in general, have focused mainly on mothers. Consequently, there is a gap with respect to fathers in the scientific literature. OBJECTIVE: This study's main objective is to determine paternal feeding styles toward children aged 0 to 18&#x2009;years a…

Authors Nieuwenhoven and Klinge (Journal of Women's Health 2010;19:1-6) argue that despite advances, sex and gender are not well treated in the biomedical literature. Many studies in which males and females are represented do not address the similarities or differences between sexes, sometimes adjusting for (thereby ob…

The human-machine interface is a crucial component of exoskeleton design, and understanding how the human nervous system adapts to and learns to coordinate with wearable robotic systems is essential for optimizing assistive device functionality. Research has shown that brain activity reflects movement-related effort an…

OBJECTIVES: Obsessive-compulsive disorder (OCD) is a condition marked by recurrent and distressing thoughts, images, and urges accompanied by repetitive physical or mental rituals. An emerging line of work suggests that emotion may be an important consideration when looking at the role of impulsivity across the spectru…

Coconut oil has been gaining popularity recently, especially with health enthusiasts claiming it to be the best fat for consumption. What is the ideal cooking fat? The answer that we are all looking for&#xa0;is just not solely based on one health consequence but several. Our study focuses on the cardiovascular aspects…

Studies reported that early diagnosis, treatment, and prevention of cervical cancer are influenced by knowledge, beliefs, and attitude toward screening. This descriptive-comparative study aimed to assess human papilloma virus (HPV) knowledge, attitudes, and beliefs in university students and the affecting factors and t…

Chronic painful Achilles tendinopathy (AT) is a common disorder among athletes. Sclerotherapy (ST) and prolotherapy (PT) are two promising options among the numerous other conservative therapies. As their efficacy and potential adverse effects (AE) are still unclear, we systematically searched, analyzed, and synthesize…

We are very pleased to introduce Ten to Men, the Australian Longitudinal Study on Male Health. Ten to Men is, to our knowledge, the largest national all-male cohort study in the world. It involves 15,988 males who were aged between 10 and 55&#xa0;years when we recruited them in 2013/14. Together, the articles in this c…

BACKGROUND: Human's existence has become more stressful these days, most likely for the sake of improving one's lifestyle and fulfilling one's aspirations and needs. Depression is the most frequent neurological disorder, which affects millions of individuals worldwide. In clinical research, depression is the second mos…

Different regulatory agencies provide criteria for selecting a reference product for bioequivalence (BE) studies. In most cases, the criteria vary from one regulatory agency to another, and, consequently, the generic companies often have to repeat the BE studies comparing the same test product with the reference produc…

Interplanetary travel poses serious risks because of Galactic cosmic radiations (GCRs). A recent study by Sanghee et&#xa0;al. revealed long-term cognitive impairments in female mice exposed to a 33-beam GCR simulator, highlighting persistent risks for astronauts. The study's use of touchscreen tasks, similar to human c…

Recent information regarding the characteristics of people living with human immunodeficiency virus (HIV) (PLWH) is lacking. Therefore, we examined the incidence of HIV infection and epidemiologic characteristics of PLWH in South Korea using recent National Health Insurance Service database data. The HIV infection rate…

In order to establish the evidence for prospective relationships between temperamental and personality indicators of behavioral undercontrol and adolescent cannabis use, we systematically searched relevant papers published through April 2008. We assessed and evaluated 14 studies, of which only 4 were considered of high…
