Exploring therapeutic alliance in spinal cord injury rehabilitation: Control, identity, and liminality.

Background: The therapeutic alliance (TA) has emerged as a key principle in enhancing the quality of health and rehabilitation services.

Purpose: This study aimed to explore patient perspectives on the influence of TAs with practitioners during inpatient rehabilitation following spinal cord injury (SCI).

Methods: Using a qualitative methodology, ( = 18) in-depth interviews were conducted with inpatient participants.

Paving the way for quality assured, decentralised point-of-care testing for infectious disease in primary care - Real world lessons from remote Australia.

Introduction: Decentralized molecular testing for infectious disease diagnosis at the point-of-care (POC) is critical to address inequities in access to timely, informed health care. The COVID-19 pandemic accelerated the demand, development and adoption of POC tests for infectious diseases globally. This has provided opportunities to maximize the individual benefits and public health impact of POC testing, particularly in remote and resource-limited primary care settings.

Assessment of UK Heavy Goods Vehicle drivers' lifestyle behaviours: a cross-sectional study.

Objective: Heavy Goods Vehicle (HGV) drivers face difficult working conditions, promoting unhealthy lifestyle behaviours which are associated with an elevated prevalence of long-term health conditions.

Methods: 109 drivers across the UK completed an online survey investigating differences in lifestyle behaviours between drivers with (N = 54) and without obesity (N = 55), including differences on work and non-workdays using an exploratory data analysis approach.

Results: Drivers with obesity (49.

Applying an ICD-10 to ICD-11 mapping tool to identify causes of death codes in an Alberta dataset.

Background: The most recent and 11th revision of the International Classification of Disease (ICD-11) is in use as of January 2022, and countries around the globe are now preparing for the implementation of ICD-11 and transition from the 10th revision (ICD-10). Translation of current coding is required for historical comparisons.

Methods: We applied the World Health Organization (WHO) mapping tables to current Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) Lists of ICD-10 coding of underlying causes of death to assess what ICD-11 codes look like in an Alberta sample of causes of death (COD).

Generalized synchronization in the presence of dynamical noise and its detection via recurrent neural networks.

Given two unidirectionally coupled nonlinear systems, we speak of generalized synchronization when the responder "follows" the driver. Mathematically, this situation is implemented by a map from the driver state space to the responder state space termed the synchronization map. In nonlinear times series analysis, the framework of the present work, the existence of the synchronization map amounts to the invertibility of the so-called cross map, which is a continuous map that exists in the reconstructed state spaces for typical time-delay embeddings.
