Type 2 myocardial infarction occurs in the absence of atherothrombosis, due to oxygen supply or demand imbalance, often during another acute illness. It is common and associated with poor clinical outcomes. No randomized controlled trials are available guide investigation treatment. The authors assessed feasibility implementing a complex intervention treatment for coronary structural heart disease patients type infarction. A pilot phase prospective trial was conducted. Process outcomes...
The direct effects of cycling on movement and muscle recruitment patterns (neuromuscular control) during running are unknown but critical to success in triathlon. We outline test a new protocol for investigating the influence neuromuscular control running. Leg (three-dimensional kinematics) (surface electromyography, EMG) were compared between run (no prior exercise) 30-min transition that was preceded by 20 min cycling. conducted three experiments investigating: (a) repeatability...
Purpose: Cycling muscle recruitment is less skilled in elite triathletes than cyclists matched for cycling training history. This finding suggests that the multidiscipline undertaken by interferes with adaptation of neuromuscular system to triathletes. The purpose this study was determine if similar interference would be evident during running Methods: We compared intramuscular electromyographic (EMG) recordings from five muscles leg (tibialis anterior, tibialis posterior, peroneus longus,...
Previous studies have shown that cycling can directly influence neuromuscular control during subsequent running in some highly trained triathletes. A relationship between this altered of and musculoskeletal pain injury has been proposed; however, link not investigated. Purpose: This study aimed to evaluate the on triathletes with without exercise-related leg (ERLP). Methods: Participants were 34 triathletes: 10 a history ERLP 24 training-matched no ERLP. Knee ankle kinematics muscle...
Stress ulcer prophylaxis is commonly prescribed in the intensive care unit but can be inappropriately commenced or continued on discharge, exposing patients to potential harm. We aimed evaluate whether a prescribing guideline, education program and pharmacist oversight would reduce inappropriate continuation of stress prophylaxis. This was multicentre pre- (2014) post- (2016) quality improvement study across five Australian units. Cost data were estimated using local information about...
Insular populations are particularly vulnerable to the effects of stochastic events, epidemics, and loss genetic diversity due inbreeding drift. The development successful management options will require accurate baseline data, establishment clear objectives, finally monitoring implementation corrective measures, if when required. This study assessed for rehabilitation highly inbred woylies obtained from wildlife centers. generated data woylie Bettongia penicillata a conservation reserve...
SummaryThis paper reports the use by 35 waterfowl species of 23 wetlands in arid south-east interior Western Australia following wettest year on record for much region. The majority are saline with individual varying from brackish to hypersaline over relatively short periods that markedly affected waterfowl. Some freshwater supported more (but not individuals) than ones, although salt lakes were significant functioning supporting greater numbers certain species. Onset breeding early is two...

Invasive pneumococcal disease is a significant health burden in Australia, with immunisation recommended for children and at-risk adults. Health benefits of are clear, but less effective when rates low, as Western Australia. We hypothesised that patients admitted unplanned to the intensive care unit (ICU) would have high eligibility immunisation, low recorded vaccine administration. performed prospective observational study 119 emergency admissions Royal Perth ICU, 20-bed mixed ICU at...
<h3>Background</h3> Acute myocardial injury and type 2 infarction typically occur in the setting of a concurrent illness. Differentiating acute from is challenging as it relies on assessment ischaemia. Indeed, some have questioned whether this distinction important, patients with both conditions are at increased risk future cardiovascular events. Whether similar role identifying those coronary artery disease uncertain. <h3>Methods</h3> We conducted secondary analysis multi-centre randomised...
