Racial/Ethnic Disparities in Access to Transportation Among Persons with Type 2 Diabetes Mellitus.

Background: Lack of access to reliable transportation is a barrier to utilizing healthcare and other resources related to type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM). Little research has evaluated race/ethnicity-based differences in access to reliable transportation among persons with T2DM.

Purpose: To examine whether access to reliable transportation for persons with T2DM differed by race/ethnicity.

Fall Risk Assessment in Acute Rehabilitation: Comparison of Two Assessment Tools.

Purpose: Many fall risk assessment tools exist. However, few of these fall risk assessment tools have been tested in the acute rehabilitation setting. The purpose of our study was to compare the accuracy of the Hendrich II Fall Risk Model (HIIFRM) and Sunnyview Test Scale in predicting falls.

Captive Breeding Reveals Insights Into the Ecology and Reproductive Biology of 11 Little-Known Malagasy Frog Species.

Amphibians are facing an extinction crisis, with ex situ programs increasingly being used as a tool for their conservation. However, conservation efforts are often limited because we do not understand the ecological, behavioral, and life history traits of many amphibian species. Here, we report on the seasonal breeding patterns, egg-laying behavior, clutch size, and development of 11 frog species maintained at a conservation breeding facility in Andasibe, Madagascar.
