Being in the minority boosts in-group love:Explanations and boundary conditions.

People appreciate members of their in-group, and they cooperate with them-tendencies we refer to as in-group love. Being a member of a minority (vs. majority) is a common experience that varies both between groups in a context and within a group between contexts, but how does it affect in-group love? Across six studies, we examined when and why .

Health-related quality of life after Dega pelvic osteotomy and varus derotation osteotomy due to spastic hip disease in children with cerebral palsy.

Purpose: Our study aimed to present health-related quality of life (HRQL) after combined bone reconstruction in nonambulatory patients with cerebral palsy (CP) after at least a 2-year follow-up and to assess its impact on HRQL using the Caregiver Priorities and Child Health Index of Life with Disabilities questionnaire (CPCHILD) as the primary outcome measure.

Methods: In this prospective study, we analyzed 31 nonambulatory patients with spastic or mixed CP (GMFCS levels IV-V) who underwent hip reconstructive surgery between 2015 and 2021. The surgical procedures included one-sided varus derotation osteotomy of the femur with Dega transiliac osteotomy and, on the opposite side, varus derotation osteotomy (VDRO) of the femur with shortening and, as needed, Dega pelvic osteotomy.

Evaluating stratified T-SPOT.TB results for diagnostic accuracy in tuberculosis disease: a retrospective cohort study with sensitivities, specificities, and predictive values.

Objectives: To investigate the association between quantitative T-SPOT.TB values and the risk of incident and prevalent tuberculosis disease (TBD), identify risk factors, and evaluate test accuracy.

Methods: This retrospective cohort study followed patients tested consecutively with T-SPOT.

Identifying Predictors of Spatiotemporal Variations in Residential Radon Concentrations across North Carolina Using Machine Learning Analytics.

Radon is a naturally occurring radioactive gas derived from the decay of uranium in the Earth's crust. Radon exposure is the leading cause of lung cancer among non-smokers in the US. Radon infiltrates homes through soil and building foundations.
