Objective: To investigate the biodynamics of human-exoskeleton interactions during patient handling tasks using a subject-specific modeling approach.
Background: Exoskeleton technology holds promise for mitigating musculoskeletal disorders caused by manual handling and most alarmingly by patient handling jobs. A deeper, more unified understanding of the biomechanical effects of exoskeleton use calls for advanced subject-specific models of complex, dynamic human-exoskeleton interactions.

Psychiatric and Mental Health Nursing Department, Faculty of Nursing, Alexandria University, Alexandria City, Egypt.
Aim: This study investigates the association between gender inequality, economic inequality, and organizational entrenchment among nurses serving in remote areas.
Background: Egypt ranks low in gender equity across the Middle East and North Africa (MENA) region. In the culture of nursing, gender-based discrimination is among the factors that can further hamper nurses' economic advancement and adversely affect organizational entrenchment.
A model of occupational stress to assess impact of COVID-19 on critical care and redeployed nurses: a mixed-methods study.
Health Soc Care Deliv Res
December 2024
School of Applied Sciences, Edinburgh Napier University, Edinburgh, Scotland.
Objective: To use the job demands-resources model of occupational stress to quantify and explain the impact of working in critical care during the COVID-19 pandemic on nurses and their employing organisation.
Design: Two-phase mixed methods: a cross-sectional survey (January 2021-March 2022), with comparator baseline data from April to October 2018 (critical care nurses only), and semistructured interviews.
Participants: Critical care nurses ( = 461) and nurses redeployed to critical care ( = 200) who worked in the United Kingdom National Health Service (primarily Scotland) between January 2021 and March 2022.
Background: For learners underrepresented in medicine (UIM), a heightened sense of belonging may be critical to creating shared awareness of diversity and fostering an inclusive educational environment. Despite ongoing efforts from academic medical institutions to promote and retain diverse individuals, few studies have investigated the foundational role of pre-health professions education in shaping students' sense of belonging, and fewer still have leveraged the potential of arts- and humanities-based approaches in doing so. This study aimed to evaluate the perceived impact of race- and gender-diverse visual representations of health professionals on pre-health students' sense of belonging.

Methods: A discrete choice experiment was conducted among health workers in the Aari and South Omo zones of the South Ethiopia region, from September to November 2022 to gather insights into their job preferences.
