Objectives: The aim of the study was to synthesize the body of knowledge on the factors that are important to the process of returning to work after ischaemic stroke in young adults under 55 years of age.
Methods: Guidelines regarding the scoping review methodology developed by the Joanna Briggs Institute, and the PRISMA checklist for scoping reviews were used. A total of 2,249 studies were identified through a bibliographic search in six databases.
Results: A total of ten studies were finally selected to respond to the research questions. Eight studies were quantitative observational studies, and two studies had a case study design. The rate of returning to work varied between the studies. The frequency of returning to work in young stroke patients, independent of the time of assessment, ranged from 42.4% to 86%. Returning to work after ischaemic stroke in young adults is a complex process and multidimensional problem which is affected by clinical variables (level of neurological deficits, cognitive ability, independency in activities of daily living, fatigue and depression, cardiovascular factors), as well as the socioeconomic and occupational status.
Conclusion: There is insufficient evidence concerning interventions promoting return to work. Future studies should focus on examining effective interventions to help young stroke survivors return to work.

In the past 20 years, sulfur hexafluoride (SF) has been considered a highly reliable tracer for assessing modern water (< 65 yrs old) in groundwater. However, modern-air contamination may introduce complications in interpreting data obtained using current sampling methods. A new airtight methodology isolates the sample from modern ambient air; thus, returning more reproducible and reliable results when compared to two traditional (air-sensitive and non-airtight) methods.

India is anticipated to grow its total energy consumption and CO emissions by more than any other country over the next two decades. India will have to attract around $400 billion in financing to realize its 500 GW target of renewable energy by 2030. Given complex renewable energy sector risks, rapidly scaling-up risk-friendly private equity financing will be critical to achieve India's target.

In order to solve the engineering problem of a large amount of wind leakage in the 8106 comprehensive mining working face of the Carboniferous System under the influence of overlapping mining of two coal seams in Yongdingzhuang Mine, Datong Mining Area, this paper utilizes finite element numerical simulation software to study the wind leakage characteristics of the 8106 working face and the distribution range of the spontaneous combustion "three zones" of the mining area. The results show that, under the condition of external air leakage, the internal pressure of the goaf is greater than the external pressure, the upper pressure is greater than the lower pressure, and the seepage direction is from the top down and from the inside out. Under the condition of no external air leakage, the air leakage source is mainly concentrated in the air inlet lane.

A large and growing number of workers are managing chronic physical and mental health conditions while working, necessitating attention from both researchers and leaders and practitioners in organizations. Much of the current discourse around research and practice in this area is focused on prevention of chronic disease and rehabilitation of disability to help workers return to work. Less commonly attended to are workplace factors that can support the quality of working life and the longevity of working life for workers with chronic health conditions.
