Objective: Extensive exposure to prescription-type opioids has resulted in major harm worldwide, calling for better-adapted approaches opioid agonist therapy. The authors aimed determine whether flexible take-home buprenorphine/naloxone is as effective supervised methadone reducing use consumers with disorder. Methods: This seven-site, pan-Canadian, 24-week, pragmatic, open-label, noninferiority, two-arm parallel randomized controlled trial involved treatment-seeking adults Participants were...

Sight is undoubtedly not only important for food identification and selection but also the modulation of gustatory sensitivity. We can, therefore, assume that taste sensitivity eating habits are affected by visual deprivation from birth. measured detection thresholds 5 basic tastants in 13 congenitally blind sighted control subjects. Participants answered several questionnaires, including Food Neophobia Scale, Variety Seeking Tendency Intuitive Eating Body Awareness Questionnaire. Our...

Sight is undoubtedly important for finding and appreciating food, cooking. Blind individuals are strongly impaired in limiting the variety of flavours they exposed to. We have shown before that compared to sighted controls, congenitally blind enhanced olfactory but reduced taste perception. In this study we tested hypothesis subjects orthonasal not retronasal skills. Twelve 14 control subjects, matched age, gender body mass index, were asked identify odours using grocery-available food...

Vision is undoubtedly important for navigation although not essential as blind individuals outperform their blindfolded seeing counterparts in a variety of navigational tasks. It believed that the blind's superior performance because efficient use proprioceptive signals and environmental cues such temperature echolocation. We hypothesize by limiting these cues, will lose advantage compared with controls spatial therefore evaluated sighted small-scale, tactile multiple T mazes. Our results...
