Rocking Motion Therapy for Delirious Patients in the ICU: A Multicenter Randomized Clinical Trial.

Objectives: Rocking motion therapy has been shown to calm people with dementia but has never been investigated in delirious patients in the ICU. The aim of this clinical trial was to investigate the efficacy and safety of a rocking motion vs. nonrocking motion chair on the duration of delirium and intensity of agitation in ICU patients with delirium.

Occupational asthma in the salmon processing industry: a case series.

Objectives: Exposure to bioaerosols in salmon processing workers is associated with occupational asthma. IgE-mediated allergy and other disease mechanisms may be involved in airway inflammation and obstruction. Knowledge about disease burden, mechanisms, phenotypes and occupational exposure is limited.

Airborne bacterial and fungal species in workstations of salmon processing plants.

Significant quantities of salmon are processed daily in the industry's indoor facilities. Occupational exposure contributes to an individual's exposome. The aim of this study is to obtain knowledge about potential exposure to viable airborne species of bacteria and fungi as related to workstations in the salmon processing industry.

EarlyTect BCD, a Streamlined PENK Methylation Test in Urine DNA, Effectively Detects Bladder Cancer in Patients with Hematuria.

The current noninvasive diagnostic approaches for detecting bladder cancer (BC) often exhibit limited clinical performance, especially for the initial diagnosis. This study aims to evaluate the validity of a streamlined urine-based PENK methylation test called EarlyTect BCD in detecting BC in patients with hematuria scheduled for cystoscopy in Korean and American populations. The test seamlessly integrates two steps, linear target enrichment and quantitative methylation-specific PCR within a single closed tube.
