Primary objective: To compare the prevalence of persistent post-concussion syndrome (PCS; >1 year post-injury) in participants with mild traumatic brain injury (mTBI) and those without head injury.Research design: A cross-sectional sample 119 mTBI 246 previous injury.Methods: Online questionnaires collected data about symptoms, cognitive failures, anxiety, depression, sleep behaviour post-traumatic stress disorder. Variability within was addressed by splitting PCS diagnosis to create four...
Abstract This paper reports a multidimensional scaling analysis of features associated with rape attrition by identifying key aspects the that are loss cases at stages police investigation, prosecutors' considerations and in court. The research utilized case-file (n=105) consisting all rapes reported to one division within large UK urban force females over age 16 from April 1998 2003. In addition, interviews were conducted officers Crown Prosecutors explore their understanding reasons why...
Background Emerging evidence suggests that arterial stiffness, an important marker of cardiovascular health, is associated with alcohol consumption. However, the role longer‐term consumption patterns in progression stiffness over time remains unclear. A longitudinal cohort design was used to evaluate association between 25 years and subsequent changes stiffness. Methods Results Data (N=3869; 73% male) were drawn from Whitehall II study British civil servants, which participants completed...

In this study, the effect of heat treatment parameters on optimized performance Ni-rich nickel-titanium wires (NiTi/Nitinol) were investigated that intended for application as actuators across various industries. instance, maximum recovery strain and actuation angle achievable by a nitinol wire employed indicators optimal performance. Nitinol treated at different temperatures, 400-500 °C, times, 30-120 min, to study effects these properties wires. Assessment covered changes in density,...
Background— The relationship between procedural volume and prognosis after percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI) remains uncertain, with some studies finding in favor of an inverse association against. This UK study provides a contemporary reassessment one the few countries world nationally representative PCI registry. Methods Results— A nationwide cohort was performed using national British Cardiovascular Intervention Society All adult patients undergoing 93 English Welsh NHS hospitals...
Increases in glass sizes and wine strength over the last 25 years UK are likely to have led an underestimation of alcohol intake population studies. We explore whether this probable misclassification affects association between average risk mortality from all causes, cardiovascular disease cancer. Self-reported consumption 1997–1999 among 7010 men women Whitehall II cohort British civil servants was linked until mid-2015. A conversion factor 8 g per (1 unit) compared with a 16 (2 units)....

A brown tint coloration formed Al2O3 oxide, pores, 124.4% increase in average particle size, 10.2% decrease circularity, 7.5% aspect ratio were observed powder. Additionally, higher grain size lower nanohardness obtained for In order to understand effect quality, 10 wt% was mixed with addition found flowability Moreover,...
The impact of operator and centre volume on clinical outcomes quality care has been considerable debate in recent years a number surgical- procedural-based specialities. A relationship between higher volumes at both the institutional levels better would first appear intuitive, based premise that performing procedure very infrequently be likely to lead unfamiliarity, complications, poorer outcomes. In current review, we study setting percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI), examine evidence...
Silicon dioxide (SiO2) is ubiquitous in biomedical diagnostics and other applications as a capture medium for nucleic acids proteins. Diagnostic devices have seen rapid miniaturisation recent years, due to the increased demand portable point-of-care diagnostics. However, there are increasing challenges with incorporating SiO2 nanostructures into diagnostic devices, complexity of nanostructured synthesis, often involving etching chemical vapour deposition under high vacuum conditions. We...
Although body mass index (BMI) is considered a key determinant of high blood pressure, its importance may differ over time and by age group. We utilised separate data sources to investigate temporal changes in this association: 23 independent (newly sampled), repeated cross-sectional studies (Health Survey for England (HSE)) at ≥25 years (1994-2018; N = 126,742); three British birth cohorts 43-46 (born 1946, 1958, 1970; 18,657). In HSE, associations were weaker more recent years, with trend...
Research into alcohol consumption and cardiovascular disease (CVD) patients' prognosis has largely ignored the longitudinal dynamics in drinking behaviour. This study measured association between trajectories mortality risk CVD patients.Prospective cohort study.UK-based Whitehall II Study.A total of 1306 participants with incident non-fatal (coronary heart disease/stroke) events.Up to eight repeated measures intake were available for each patient from most recent assessment phase...
Abstract Cross-study research initiatives to understand change across time are an increasingly prominent component of social and health sciences, yet they present considerable practical, analytical conceptual challenges. First, we discuss the key challenges comparative as a basis for detecting societal change, well possible solutions. We focus on studies which investigate changes in outcome occurrence or magnitude and/or direction associations. use importance such research, study inclusion,...
Abstract The current study examined if gender bias in the assessment process might be reason why males are consistently found to exhibit more antisocial traits and behaviours than females. Employing Leahy Antisocial Personality Scale (LAPS), a brief new self‐report instrument for of traits, general population (n = 216) were again features females 391). Analysis differential item functioning LAPS indicated that four items operated differently across genders. To extent measures DSM‐IV‐TR...
Background Daily diaries are an important modality for patient-reported outcome assessment. They typically comprise multiple questions, so understanding their underlying structure is key to appropriate analysis and interpretation. Structural evaluation of such measures poses challenges due the high volume repeated measurements. Potential strategies include selecting a single day, averaging item-level observations over time, or using all data while accounting its multilevel structure.
