The varying perceptions of a statistician’s value, from “critical” to “not needed for 99.9% of applications”
Currently, much medical research is wasted due to inappropriate study design or analysis. Qualified statisticians are essential for ensuring ideal study design and analysis, and the ethical review process is an ideal stage for their input. We estimated the percentage of Australian ethics committees with access to a qualified statistician. Sixty percent of committees reported access to a qualified statistician, either as a full committee member or…
Gendering the Menstrual Cycle in Behavioral Neuroendocrinology
The menstrual cycle is increasingly described as a “vital sign of the female body,” with the literature suggesting cycle‐related brain and behavioral changes. With growing interest in the effects that the menstrual cycle has on the brain, body and mind, characterizing what constitutes healthy cycle‐related change has become a central goal of behavioral neuroendocrinology. Considering the epistemological importance of research in behavioral neuroe…
What Integrated Care Means for Families of Children with Down Syndrome
Background: Caregivers play a crucial role in coordinating their children's health and social needs, particularly when managing care for multiple co-morbidities with different specialists. Optimizing care coordination through an integrated care perspective necessitates understanding the factors impacting this system, identifying gaps, and continuously improving health and social services for families. Traditional measures of service delivery, whi…
Variability of oxygen requirements in critically ill Covid-19 patients
Background: The global scarcity of medical oxygen has proven to be catastrophic during the surges in COVID-19 cases over the past two years, with the heaviest burden felt in low- and middle-income countries. Despite its criticality, data and analyses of oxygen consumption, even for typical clinical cases, are missing. Consequently, planning oxygen needs, particularly with variable surges in COVID-19 cases, has presented a substantial challenge to…
Race and ethnicity in the Covid-19 Critical Care Consortium
Disease severity was higher for Indigenous ethnicity groups in the US and Australia than for other ethnicities. Race and ethnicity groups with longstanding healthcare disparities were found to have high acuity from COVID-19 and high mortality. Because there is no global system of race and ethnicity classification, researchers designing case report forms for international studies should consider including related information, such as socioeconomic…
Work, travel, or leisure
Urban residents tend to participate in more active transportation, while rural residents participate in more occupational or household physical activity. Location-based differences in physical activity are best understood by examining multiple domains and must include appropriate sociodemographic interactions, such as income and sex/gender
Feasibility, Acceptability and Appropriateness of MedViewer
Application of a Mixed Methods Multi-Criteria Decision Analysis Framework in Integrated Health Care
This work offers a feasible, flexible and pragmatic approach for evaluating integrated care programs
Kinship Care
This study explores the state of kinship care in British C olumbia (BC), Canada 10 years after the implementation of major policy reform designed by the provincial government to improve services to kinship caregivers. It arises from a community-based research project that included Parent Support Services (PSS), a charitable nonprofit organization that supports kinship caregivers in BC, and the University of Northern British Columbia (UNBC). Two h…
A theory-grounded text message–based intervention to reduce sedentary behaviour in university students
Objective: To evaluate the feasibility and acceptability of a theory-grounded, text message–based intervention targeting sedentary behaviour among university students. Design: Single-group repeated measures design. Setting: Post-secondary institution in British Columbia, Canada. Methods: Data concerning students’ sedentary behaviour were collected via online survey completed at three time points over the course of one university semester: baselin…
Squatter Regionalism
In this article we use computational methods to establish that the Program Era has altered the traditional understanding that a regionalist writer writes about the region in which they grew up. Using the Iowa Writers’ Workshop as an example, we prove that many writers now write about the region to which they moved to study and/or teach creative writing. Using a database of demographic information about faculty and students alongside computational…
Prevalence of PTSD, Depression and Anxiety Disorders in Correctional Officers
Barriers to physical activity for adults in rural and urban Canada
Despite being more likely than urban residents to prefer and enjoy physical activity, rural residents have fewer opportunities and receive less social support to be active. It is important to consider geographic location when characterizing barriers to physical activity and in the development of context-specific health promotion strategies
Likelihood of meeting physical activity guidelines in rural and urban adults
Accessing embodied object representations from vision
Theories of embodied cognition (EC) propose that object concepts are represented by reactivations of sensorimotor experiences of different objects. Abundant research from linguistic paradigms provides support for the notion that sensorimotor simulations are involved in cognitive tasks like comprehension. However, it is unclear whether object concepts, as accessed from the visual presentation of objects, are embodied. In the present article we rev…
