A Comparison of Automatically Extracted Quantitative EEG Features for Seizure Risk Stratification in Neonatal Encephalopathy.

Purpose: Seizures occur in up to 40% of neonates with neonatal encephalopathy. Earlier identification of seizures leads to more successful seizure treatment, but is often delayed because of limited availability of continuous EEG monitoring. Clinical variables poorly stratify seizure risk, and EEG use to stratify seizure risk has previously been limited by need for manual review and artifact exclusion.

Macroperiodic Oscillations: A Potential Novel Biomarker of Outcome in Neonatal Encephalopathy.

Purpose: Neonatal encephalopathy (NE) is a common cause of neurodevelopmental morbidity. Tools to accurately predict outcomes after therapeutic hypothermia remain limited. We evaluated a novel EEG biomarker, macroperiodic oscillations (MOs), to predict neurodevelopmental outcomes.

Perspectives of Complementary and Alternative Medicine use by cancer patients in a regional hospital in North Queensland, Australia.

Objectives: This study aimed to investigate CAMs used, and reasons for and disclosure of this use by cancer patients in a regional hospital in North Queensland, Australia.

Methods: Patients attending the Day Oncology Unit of the Townsville University Hospital were invited to participate in a self-completed questionnaire or telephone interview regarding perspectives of their CAM use. Data were analysed using descriptive statistics and chi-squared and independent t-tests were performed to allow comparison between the responses by CAM users and non-users.

Absent, Incapable, and "Normal": Understanding the Inclusiveness of Visually Impaired Students' Experiences in Integrated Physical Education.

The purpose of this study was to examine the inclusiveness of visually impaired youths' experiences in integrated physical education. An experiential qualitative research approach was utilized, and 22 visually impaired youth (age 12-17 years) acted as participants. Data sources included one-on-one Zoom interviews, written responses to long-answer prompts, and reflexive interview notes.

Complementary and alternative medicine use in cancer: A systematic review.

Background And Purpose: Complementary and alternative medicine (CAM) use in cancer is increasing. The purpose of this study was to systematically review the literature to determine demographic profiles and prevalence and reasons for use in cancer patients.

Methods: In this systematic review, the databases OVID, PubMed, and Scopus were searched for studies on CAM use in cancer between 2009 and June 2018.
