Response to mental health treatment varies highly among refugee patients. Research has not established which factors relate to differences in outcome. This study is a follow-up of Opaas and Hartmann's (2013) Rorschach Inkblot Method (RIM; Exner, 2003) pretreatment study of traumatized refugees, where 2 RIM principal co…

INTRODUCTION: Forensic dentistry integrates interdisciplinary scientific knowledge to produce accurate and reliable forensic statements. Anthropometry, essential since its introduction by Alphonse Bertillon in 1882, describes human body shapes and has significant forensic applications. This study focuses on sexual dimo…

: Outcome data from wearable devices are increasingly used in both research and clinics. Traditionally, a dedicated device is chosen for a given study or clinical application to collect outcome data as soon as the patient is included in a study or undergoes a procedure. The current study introduces a new measurement st…

BACKGROUND: Employees with hypertension face challenging job pressures that have a negative impact on their health, leading to ineffective and unsatisfactory work. Additionally, this can affect an organization's overall level of productivity. This study aimed to examine the effects of rational emotive behavior therapy…

BACKGROUND: Hyperuricemia (HUA) is a crucial factor contributing to some chronic diseases among adults. In past observational literatures, scholars have debated the effectiveness of dietary pattern on HUA and inconsistencies exist. Given this condition, the study aimed to provide a comparative assessment of the relatio…

BACKGROUND: Numerous studies suggest a positive association between physical activity and physical fitness in schoolchildren. However, little is known about some neglected forms of physical activity and their associations with physical fitness. This study was conducteda self-reported questionnaire, owing to the COVID-1…

BACKGROUND: Cyclooxygenase-2 selective inhibitors were developed in order to reduce the incidence of life-threatening gastrointestinal ulcer complications compared with non-selective non-steroidal anti-inflammatory drugs. Previous outcomes studies have, variously, lacked power to investigate this endpoint, focused on b…

In this paper, we present a mathematical model, which mimics the bronchial resistances of human's lung in an expiratory act. The model is implemented in Matlab. The inputs that are used in this model derive from spirometry test. This model is able to study a physiologic condition, a pathologic one and the patient's fol…

BACKGROUND: Intraventricular hemorrhage (IVH) is a critical issue in premature infants, caused by the rupture of fragile brain blood vessels due to underdeveloped vasculature. IVH severity, graded by the Papile system in 4 grades, significantly impacts neurodevelopmental outcomes. Despite its severity Data on IVH in su…

Teachers' life satisfaction is a crucial determinant of their well-being and professional efficacy. While research has established digital leadership, digital technology skills, and work engagement as pivotal to life satisfaction, the intricate dynamics through which digital leadership affects the life satisfaction of…

INTRODUCTION: This study aims to enhance educational quality and academic standards by proposing a model based on critical research ability indicators to objectively evaluate the sustainable scientific research capabilities of university teachers. METHODS: Using T-S fuzzy neural network technology, we developed an eva…

Interprofessional collaboration among health professionals is increasingly recognized as best practice in assessing and supporting autistic children, however limited research has explored whether this collaboration is being practiced. This study explored parents' experiences of interprofessional collaboration between h…

This article is the second instalment in the series. The preceding article detailed the background, methodology and methods, while the current article delves into the study's findings and alignment with the broader literature. The study aimed to explore the research question: 'how do men perceive their engagement in th…

Artificial intelligence (AI) is making significant strides in revolutionizing the detection of Barrett's esophagus (BE), a precursor to esophageal adenocarcinoma. In the research article by Tsai, researchers utilized endoscopic images to train an AI model, challenging the traditional distinction between endoscopic and…

Transferability is commonly identified as a quality criterion for qualitative research. This criterion was introduced by Lincoln and Guba to describe the degree to which a study's findings can be transferred to other contexts, settings or respondents. In this How To paper, we present a more nuanced, multidimensional vi…

This study tried to know how self-regulation strategies (SRS) affected the motivation, self-efficacy, willingness to communicate (WTC), and creativity of Chinese EFL learners as they learned English language. To do this, eighty intermediate EFL students were selected and divided into two groups: experimental and contro…
