Interventions for managing skeletal muscle spasticity following traumatic brain injury by Synnot, Anneliese, Chau, Marisa, Pitt, Veronica, O'Connor, Denise, Gruen, Russell Lindsay, Wasiak, Jason, Clavisi, Ornella, Pattuwage, Loyal, Phillips, Kate

“…Background: Skeletal muscle spasticity is a major physical complication resulting from traumatic brain injury (TBI), which can lead to muscle contracture, joint stiffness, reduced range of movement, broken skin and pain. Treatments for spasticity include a range of pharmacological and non‐pharmacological interventions, often used in combination. …”

Combined effects of muscle fatigue and decision making on knee joint biomechanics by Wang, Nan.

“…During the jumping followed by cutting maneuver under four simulated cases (i.e. pre-fatigue anticipated, pre-fatigue unanticipated, post-fatigue anticipated, and post-fatigue unanticipated), a motion capture system comprised by eight high-speed (200 fps) cameras was used to collect the three-dimensional coordinates of 18 reflective skin markers, which were attached to those interested positions prior to the experiment. …”

Exploration of safe space for traumatic urban youths amidst urban growth by Hui Yen, Kok, Mohd Noor, Mohd Zairul, Lawrence D’silva, Jeffrey

“…For traumatised urban youths, a youth safe space can simply be access to refuge, a place where they feel safe and protected as well as being comfortable in their own skin. Youth require secure public areas where they can congregate, participate in activities that cater to their wide range of needs and interests, influence decisions, and express themselves freely. …”

Evaluating factors affecting mean glandular dose in mammography: insights from a retrospective study in Dubai by Mohammad Noor, Kaltham Abdulwahid, Mohd Norsuddin, Norhashimah, Abdul Karim, Muhammad Khalis, Che Isa, Iza Nurzawani, Ulaganathan, Vaidehi

“…Weak inverse correlations were found between age and organ dose (OD) for both views, while a direct relationship was observed between breast thickness and entrance skin dose (ESD). In adjusted models, ESD was strongly associated with MGD (β = 1.04, 95% CI: 0.97, 1.09), while OD showed a moderate association (β = 0.44, 95% CI: 0.40, 0.49). …”
