Falls are the leading cause of fatal and non-fatal unintentional injuries in older people. The use Exergames (active, gamified video-based exercises) is a possible innovative, community-based approach. This study aimed to determine effectiveness tailored OTAGO/FaME-based strength balance Exergame programme for improving balance, maintaining function reducing falls risk A two-arm cluster randomised controlled trial recruiting adults aged 55 years living 18 assisted (sheltered housing)...
Background Despite simpler regimens than vitamin K antagonists (VKAs) for stroke prevention in atrial fibrillation (AF), adherence (taking drugs as prescribed) and persistence (continuation of drugs) to direct oral anticoagulants are suboptimal, yet understudied electronic health records (EHRs). Objective We investigated (1) time trends at individual system levels, (2) the risk factors associations between persistence. Methods In UK primary care EHR (The Health Information Network...
SBND is the near detector of Short-Baseline Neutrino program at Fermilab. Its location to Booster Beam source and relatively large mass will allow study neutrino interactions on argon with unprecedented statistics. This paper describes expected performance photon detection system, using a simulated sample beam neutrinos cosmogenic particles. design dual readout concept combining system 120 photomultiplier tubes, used for triggering, 192 X-ARAPUCA devices, located behind anode wire planes....
Abstract Background The aim of this study was to identify key indicator symptoms and patient factors associated with correct out hospital cardiac arrest (OHCA) dispatch allocation. In previous studies, from 3% 62% OHCAs are not recognised by Emergency Medical Service call handlers, resulting in delayed arrival at scene. Methods Retrospective, mixed methods including all suspected or confirmed OHCA patients transferred one acute its regional England 1/7/2013 30/6/2014. data, voice recordings...
This article provides a summary and critical appraisal of the systematic review conducted by Alidoust et al. 1 regarding various effects housing on both physical psychological well-being. We aim to discuss review's findings against existing published evidence draw out policy practical implications. Our mini-review illuminates wide range housing-related factors which impact health around we evidence-based initiatives implications, outline avenues for future research. is part wider Rapid...
The hit response of silicon vertex and tracking detectors to muon collider beam background results a study reducing techniques are presented. caused by decays the 750 GeV/c μ+ μ− beams was simulated using MARS15 program, which included infrastructure line elements near detector 10o nozzles that shield from this background. ILCRoot framework, along with Geant4 used simulate tracker decay remaining after shielding nozzles. include timing, energy deposition, location correlation in double layer...
Abstract Purpose Personalised information and support can be provided to cancer survivors using a structured approach. Needs assessment tools such as the Holistic Assessment (HNA) in UK Comprehensive Problem Symptom Screening (COMPASS) questionnaire Canada are recommended for use practice; however, they not widely embedded into practice. The study aimed determine extent which nurses working care Manitoba value NA identify any barriers facilitators experience. Method Oncology involved of...

Introduction Dynamic contrast-enhanced CT (DCE-CT) and positron emission tomography/CT (PET/CT) have a high reported accuracy for the diagnosis of malignancy in solitary pulmonary nodules (SPNs). The aim this study was to compare cost-effectiveness these. Methods In prospective multicentre trial, 380 participants with an SPN (8–30 mm) no recent history underwent DCE-CT PET/CT. All patients either biopsy histological or completed follow-up. Primary outcome measures were sensitivity,...
Management of psychological adjustment and low mood after stroke can result in positive health outcomes. We have adapted a talk-based therapy, motivational interviewing (MI), shown it to be potentially effective for managing supporting post-stroke single-centre trial. In the current study, we aimed explore feasibility delivering MI using clinical team members, an attention control (AC), inform protocol future definitive trial.This parallel two-arm trial took place north-west England....

Background Current pathways recommend positron emission tomography–computerised tomography for the characterisation of solitary pulmonary nodules. Dynamic contrast-enhanced computerised may be a more cost-effective approach. Objectives To determine diagnostic performances dynamic and in NHS Systematic reviews health economic evaluation contributed to decision-analytic modelling assess likely costs outcomes resulting from incorporation into management strategies.
