Precise predictions for same-sign W-boson scattering at the LHC.

Vector-boson scattering processes are of great importance for the current run-II and future runs of the Large Hadron Collider. The presence of triple and quartic gauge couplings in the process gives access to the gauge sector of the Standard Model (SM) and possible new-physics contributions there. To test any new-physics hypothesis, sound knowledge of the SM contributions is necessary, with a precision which at least matches the experimental uncertainties of existing and forthcoming measurements.

Evaluation of the effects of the VibraJect attachment on pain in children receiving local anesthesia.

Purpose: The purpose of this study was to evaluate the effectiveness of VibraJect, a vibrating attachment for a traditional syringe, in reducing pain related disruptive behavior and self-reported pain in children receiving local anesthesia.

Methods: The procedure involved a randomized, controlled, single-blinded study of 90 children receiving local anesthesia for routine restorative procedures. Participants were randomly assigned to either a control (injection as usual) or experimental (injection using the VibraJect) group.

Effectiveness of a basic training presentation on infant oral health care for family medicine residents.

Purpose: This study's purpose was to evaluate an infant oral health education program to target University of Nebraska Medical Center family medicine residents.

Methods: Participants included 37 family medicine residents. Assessment in the form of a questionnaire was completed immediately before and after a 60-minute educational intervention.

Effectiveness of a presentation on infant oral health care for parents.

Purpose: The aim of this study was to evaluate an infant oral health education programme, using a pre-post test design, for parents attending a paediatric clinic.

Methods: The subjects were parents attending the well baby appointments at 3, 6, and 9 months of age. The study participants were men and women, all with an infant between 3 and 12 months of age.

Effectiveness of a basic training presentation on infant oral health care for pediatric medicine residents.

Objective: We hypothesize that viewing educational presentation with video will provide pediatric medicine residents with instructive information on infant oral health. Therefore, the aim of this study was to evaluate an infant oral health education program targeting University of Nebraska Medical Center (UNMC) pediatric medicine residents.

Methods: Assessment of 32 pediatric medicine residents in the form of a questionnaire was completed immediately before and after a 60 minute educational intervention.
