Not-so-normal hearing: Temporary hearing changes lead to chronic difficulties for listeners with "normal" audiometric thresholds.

Hearing loss has historically been mainly associated with elevated pure-tone thresholds. However, in recent years, there has been increased interest in addressing the hearing difficulties reported by individuals with normal hearing thresholds. In this study, we measured hearing thresholds, noise history, temporary threshold shift history, and hearing difficulty for a sample of 10,492 Service Members.

Molybdenum Disulfide/Diselenide-Laser-Induced Graphene-Glycine Oxidase Composite for Electrochemical Sensing of Glyphosate.

The widespread use of the pesticide glyphosate has raised concerns regarding its potential health and environmental impacts. Consequently, there is an increasing demand for monitoring glyphosate levels in surface waters and food products. Currently, there is no commercially available rapid, field-deployable sensor capable of quantifying glyphosate concentrations in environmental samples.

Model predictions of global geologic hydrogen resources.

Geologic hydrogen could be a low-carbon primary energy resource; however, the magnitude of Earth's subsurface endowment has not yet been assessed. Knowledge of the occurrence and behavior of natural hydrogen on Earth has been combined with information from geologic analogs to construct a mass balance model to predict the resource potential. Given the associated uncertainty, stochastic model results predict a wide range of values for the potential in-place hydrogen resource [10 to 10 million metric tons (Mt)] with the most probable value of ~5.

Integrating accelerometry, GPS, GIS and molecular data to investigate mechanistic pathways of the urban environmental exposome and cognitive outcomes in older adults: a longitudinal study protocol.

Introduction: Maintaining cognitive health in later life is a global priority. Encouraging individuals to make health behaviour changes, such as regular physical activity, and providing supportive urban environments can help maintain cognitive health, thereby preventing or delaying the progress of dementia and cognitive decline. However, the mechanistic pathways by which the urban environmental exposome influences cognitive health outcomes are poorly understood.

The Application of Continuous Glucose Monitoring Endpoints in Clinical Research: Analysis of Trends and Review of Challenges.

Introduction: Considerable efforts to standardize continuous glucose monitoring (CGM) have occurred in recent years. The aim was to perform an analysis of clinical studies in clinicaltrials.gov to evaluate trends in CGM endpoint adoption.
