Vestibular/ocular motor provocation and state anxiety are both independently linked to poor recovery outcomes following concussion. However, the relationship between these two clinical presentations and their co-occurring effects on concussion recovery outcomes is understudied. The purpose was to examine the co-occurring effects of vestibular/ocular motor provocation and state anxiety following concussion.

Migratory birds and nomadic antelope can have considerable conservation, economic or societal value, while irruptive insects can be major pests and threaten food security. Extreme weather events, which are increasing in frequency and intensity under ongoing climate change, are driving rapid and unforeseen shifts in mobile species distributions.

- - The study investigated why patients who had knee replacement surgery returned to the emergency department (ED) within 90 days, focusing on the associated costs and resource use in healthcare.
- - Out of 687 patients studied, 145 (21.1%) visited the ED, primarily shortly after surgery, with the main issues being surgical-related, especially pain, swelling, and the need for hematoma drainage.
- - The findings emphasized the need for better strategies, like pain management and patient education, to cut down on unnecessary ED visits and improve patient care outcomes post-surgery.
Introduction: People with lived and living experience (PWLLE) and family members (F) can engage in mental health and substance use health research beyond participant roles, as advisors, co-researchers, equal partners and research leads. However, implementing meaningful and effective engagement is complex.
Methods: This article profiles five research initiatives involving different lived experience engagement structures, situated in a single tertiary care teaching and research hospital.
