Background: Evidence for the effectiveness and cost-savings of workplace wellness programs (WWPs) is varied, likely due to the variability in program design, as not all WWPs meet the five-point criteria of a "comprehensive WWP" set by the U.S. Centers for Disease Control and Prevention.

- Inertial self-motion perception is influenced by otolith cues, with recent findings indicating that vestibular perceptual thresholds can adapt, opening up potential new treatments for vestibular disorders.* -
- A study involving 47 healthy participants assessed the reliability of a passive inertial heading perception test over multiple sessions, measuring point of subjective equality (PSE) and heading discrimination thresholds.* -
- Results showed good test-retest reliability for heading discrimination PSE but moderate reliability overall, with significant changes observed in heading thresholds between testing sessions, suggesting a need for careful interpretation in clinical settings.*
Purpose: Evaluation and comparison of outcomes following gender-affirming mastectomy have been hindered by the lack of a validated population- and surgery-specific patient-reported outcome measure (PROM). The purpose of this study was to explore the lived experiences of transgender individuals assigned female at birth (AFAB) from before-to-after gender-affirming mastectomy to identify key qualitative themes that might inform the creation of a quantitative PROM in the future.
Methods: Identified candidates were transgender men AFAB, 18-65 years of age (mean±standard deviation: 30.
Article Synopsis
- Spatial navigation is an essential skill affected by vestibular and hearing impairments, which are under-researched in this context.
- The study analyzed data from 182 participants, using various tests to evaluate the impact of these impairments on navigation performance.
- Results indicated that while vestibular dysfunction (measured by oVEMP) correlated with increased navigation errors, hearing impairment was specifically linked to shorter walking distances; however, there was no interaction effect between vestibular and hearing function on navigation ability.
