Foot care behaviours and associated factors among patients with type 2 diabetes: a cross-sectional study by Ang, Chin-Siang, Goh, Kelley Fann Ing, Lodh, Nandika, Qin, Vicky Mengqi, Liew, Huiling, Sidhu, Harvinder Raj Singh, Ng, Jun Jie, Subramaniam, Tavintharan, Tan, Elaine, Koh, Gerald Choon Huat, Best, James, Wong, Julian, Car, Josip, Ho, Andy Hau Yan, Venkataraman, Kavita

“…Additionally, more FC knowledge increased the likelihood by 20% (OR=1.21; 95% CI=1.10–1.33), and higher diabetes-related stress increased it by 1.03 times (OR=1.03; 95% CI=1.02–1.05). Conclusions: Our findings underscore the interplay of various factors influencing FC behaviours among individuals with diabetes and call for targeted interventions and tailored strategies to improve FC practices in this vulnerable population.…”

Analysis and design recommendations for structures strengthened by prestressed bonded Fe-SMA by Li, Lingzhen, Wang, Sizhe, Chatzi, Eleni, Motavalli, Masoud, Ghafoori, Elyas

“…A parametric study and a sensitivity analysis are then conducted to assess the impact of the four influential features on the final prestress level, and their impact is ranked in the following order: recovery stress ≈ Fe-SMA width > activation length > bonded anchorage length. Based on these findings, a design strategy, in line with Eurocode 0, for the bonded/embedded Fe-SMA strengthening system is proposed. …”
