Sensitivity and Specificity of a Signaling Question for Surveillance of Cognitive Functioning in Pediatric Sickle Cell Disease.
Pediatr Blood Cancer
January 2025
Division of Hematology, Children's National Hospital, Washington, District of Columbia, USA.
Background: Sickle cell disease (SCD) confers neurological risks that contribute to cognitive and academic difficulties. Clinical guidelines state that cognition should be monitored using signaling questions. However, evidence is lacking regarding the extent to which signaling questions accurately identify children with cognitive issues.

January 2025
Alcohol Research Group, Public Health Institute, Emeryville, CA, USA.
Aim: We applied the Institute of Medicine (IOM) definition of racial and ethnic disparities in healthcare to estimate disparities in alcohol-related problems. This estimation involved adjusting for drinking patterns, gender and age, with observed disparities further explained by socioeconomic status (SES). We compared results of five statistical approaches which use different methods for adjusting covariates.

Physiother Res Int
January 2025
College of Rehabilitation Sciences, Shanghai University of Medicine and Health Sciences, Shanghai, China.
Background: Proprioceptive deficits are common among stroke survivors and can negatively impact their balance and postural control. However, there has been little evaluation of the change in proprioceptive deficits in the lower limbs over time after stroke. This study aimed to examine proprioceptive deficits over time after stroke in both the affected and "unaffected" lower limbs.

Environ Sci Pollut Res Int
January 2025
Laboratory of Ecotoxicology, Department of Botany, Institute of Science, Banaras Hindu University, Varanasi, 221005, India.
This research investigates the interactive effects of elevated ozone (eO) and carbon dioxide (eCO) on stomatal morphology and leaf anatomical characteristics in two wheat cultivars with varying O sensitivities. Elevated O increased stomatal density and conductance, causing oxidative stress and cellular damage, particularly in the O-sensitive cultivar PBW-550 (PW), compared to HUW-55 (HW). Conversely, eCO reduced stomatal density and pore size, mitigating O-induced damage by limiting O influx.

Methods: This cross-sectional study comprised 474 patients who underwent standard thoracic computed tomography (CT) scans. The FI was quantified as the percentage of adipose tissues within the cross-sectional area of thoracic paraspinal muscles.
