Road traffic pollution is one of the most important factors among other environmental factors that influence the roadside vegetation. The present research examines the impact of motorway flyovers and at-grade roads on air pollution (PM10, SOx, NOx, and air quality index (AQI)) and roadside vegetation in Dehradun by considering the important biochemical parameters such as chlorophyll, ascorbic acid

PURPOSE: To examine sex differences in health-related quality of life (HRQoL) among patients surgically treated for renal cell carcinoma (RCC) in Sweden, utilizing data from the National Swedish Kidney Cancer Register (NSKCR).METHODS: In this study of 4658 surgically treated RCC patients, data on HRQoL, clinical, demographic, and socioeconomic characteristics were retrieved from the NSKCR for pati

Atmospheric inverse modelling and ecosystem data assimilation are two complementary approaches to estimate CH4 emissions. The inverse approach infers emission estimates from observed atmospheric CH4 mixing ratio, which provide robust large scale constraints on total methane emissions, but with poor spatial and process resolution. On the other hand, in the ecosystem data assimilation approach, the

Mild traumatic brain injury (mTBI) is a frequent but underreported consequence of professional cycling crashes, yet current helmet testing standards primarily simulate head-first impacts, and their representation of real-world head impact scenarios is unclear. This study explores crash typology of professional cycling crashes involving head-ground contact through systematic video analysis of 128 h

Introduction: Present literature on professionalism usually focuses on individual parts of professional identity development and mostly, as these are seen and are evaluated by the dental educators. When looking at professionalism and in particular professional identity formation, It is extremely important to listen to the voice of the students regarding their thoughts, attitudes, beliefs and ideas

PURPOSE – Comparative studies demonstrate that patients who use electronic patient-reported outcomes (ePROs) experience better outcomes; however, research comparing ePRO designs to determine optimal strategies for routine clinical practice is limited. We aimed to determine the impact of a novel checkbox format for presenting items in a postoperative symptom-assessment ePRO tool.METHODS – Patients

Purpose Despite increased interest in opioid-free strategies, their clinical uptake remains limited. This study explores Swedish perioperative healthcare professional’s (HCPs) knowledge, attitudes, and practices regarding opioid and nonopioid analgesia across intraoperative and postoperative contexts. Design A national web-based survey was conducted among perioperative HCPs across Sweden between O

Purpose: Electronic patient-reported outcomes (ePROs) are used postoperatively to detect complications through real-time symptom monitoring. This study examines whether alerts triggered through the “Recovery Tracker” (RT), an ePRO system, predict 30-day re-admission or re-operation after lumpectomy. Methods: We retrospectively reviewed breast cancer patients who underwent lumpectomy at a single in

BACKGROUND: Sepsis-induced coagulopathy (SIC) is a scoring system developed for early detection of coagulopathy in sepsis and selection of patients for interventional studies. Our aim was to define the prevalence of SIC in a critically ill population and investigate if SIC at intensive care unit (ICU) admission is associated with morbidity and mortality.METHODS: Patients admitted with septic shock

BACKGROUND:Detection of ischemia and intracranial hemorrhage (ICH) directly after endovascular thrombectomy (EVT) could enable earlier diagnosis and treatment. We evaluated whether post-EVT Sine Spin cone-beam computed tomography (CBCT) on the Siemens ARTIS Icono biplane system at the end of the procedure can predict ischemia and ICH on subsequent follow-up computed tomography (FUCT) within 48 hou

Background: First-line managers in healthcare operate in increasingly complex environments marked by high demands, rapid change, and limited resources. These conditions impact their health, leadership capacity, and the sustainability of their roles. While previous research has addressed various aspects of leadership in healthcare, there is a lack of studies focusing specifically on how first-line

Introduction: Cervical cancer represents a significant public health challenge worldwide. To improve screening accessibility and participation, we implemented vaginal human papilloma virus (HPV) self-sampling as part of an organized cervical cancer prevention strategy. This study aimed to evaluate the implementation and outcomes of the self-sampling program in a real-world setting. Material and Me

PurposeThis study aims to assess the diffusion and integration of Circular Economy (CE) knowledge across academic disciplines, by examining how CE concepts spread within mainstream academic and disciplinary discourses.Design/Methodology/ApproachCE is conceptualized as a knowledge object, distinguishing between mainstream academic discourse (MAD) and mainstream disciplinary discourse (MDD). The res

BackgroundPediatric heart-lung transplantation (pHLTx) remains the only treatment option for children with significant and fixed elevation of pulmonary vascular resistance (PVR) in the setting of uncorrectable end-stage heart disease. We aimed to determine the characteristics, waiting list course and long-term outcomes for children listed for pHLTx within the Scandiatransplant region.MethodsThis w

Introduction:Exclusive breastfeeding (EB) is globally recommended due to health benefits for women and their infants. Home-based postnatal midwifery care (HBPMC) is a model of care where midwives give in-home care during the first postnatal week. The study objectives were to investigate breastfeeding outcomes at two months after birth, in women and newborns receiving HBPMC, and to identify risk fa
