Method: Retrospective cohort study of a prenatal and postnatal cohort with upper limb anomalies from January 2007 to December 2021 in a Fetal Medicine Unit. Prenatally on ultrasound suspected upper limb anomalies, such as transverse and longitudinal reduction defects, polydactyly, and syndactyly, and postnatally identified children referred to the Congenital Hand Team were evaluated separately.
Objectives: Quality assessment tools serve an important role in evaluating economic evaluations. This paper showcases the first application of the Checklist for Health Economic Quality Evaluations (CHEQUE) tool in a systematic review setting and offers descriptive reflections on its use.
Methods: We applied CHEQUE to 21 diverse economic evaluations in a systematic review on medical education.
Article Synopsis
- - The social motivation hypothesis suggests that individuals with Autism Spectrum Condition (ASC) pay less attention to social cues and have a lower desire for social relationships.
- - A study involving interviews with eleven autistic men revealed five key themes about their social motivation: social networks, the importance of social contact, challenges in social interactions, the conditional nature of social contact, and the struggle between valuing social interaction and facing difficulties.
- - Findings indicate that social motivation is not a simple concept for autistic men; instead, it fluctuates based on individual experiences and contexts, suggesting that their diminished motivation might stem from navigating these complexities rather than a lack of interest in social interaction.
