Cross-cultural translation, validation, and responsiveness of the Pittsburgh Fatigability Scale - Italian version (PFS-I) in a mixed-sample of older adults.

Introduction: Older adults experience fatigue which impacts health-related quality of life. The Pittsburgh Fatigability Scale (PFS) was specifically designed to assess perceived physical and mental fatigability in older adults. The aim of this study was to translate the PFS into Italian (PFS-I) and to investigate its psychometric properties.

Effect of experimental knee pain location on gait kinematics.

Purpose: In this study, we investigated whether experimental knee pain alters lower limb kinematics and knee arthrokinematics during gait, and if this motor adaptation depends on the spatial characteristics of the painful stimulus.

Methods: Twenty-one participants walked on a treadmill for 60-s trials, either without stimulation or while experiencing painful electrical stimulation in the medial, lateral or anterior region of the knee. Perceived pain location was analyzed using pain drawing.

The association between neuropathic pain features and central sensitization with acute headache associated to a whiplash injury.

Background: Headache is one of the most common symptoms after a whiplash injury, although the pathophysiology remains under discussion. This study aimed to evaluate differences in neuropathic pain and central sensitization features between those who present with whiplash-associated headache (WAH) soon after a whiplash injury and those who do not.

Methods: This case-control study evaluated differences on the self-administered Leeds Assessment of Neuropathic Symptoms and Signs (S-LANSS), Pain Detect Questionnaire (PDQ) and the Central Sensitization Inventory (CSI) between those who present with WAH in the acute phase after a whiplash injury (n = 46) and those who do not (n = 36).

Search for the Exclusive W Boson Hadronic Decays W^{±}→π^{±}γ, W^{±}→K^{±}γ and W^{±}→ρ^{±}γ with the ATLAS Detector.

A search for the exclusive hadronic decays W^{±}→π^{±}γ, W^{±}→K^{±}γ, and W^{±}→ρ^{±}γ is performed using up to 140  fb^{-1} of proton-proton collisions recorded with the ATLAS detector at a center-of-mass energy of sqrt[s]=13  TeV. If observed, these rare processes would provide a unique test bench for the quantum chromodynamics factorization formalism used to calculate cross sections at colliders. Additionally, at future colliders, these decays could offer a new way to measure the W boson mass through fully reconstructed decay products.
