Include Me: The Role of Disability Voice in Co‐Constructing the Workplace Inclusion of People With Disabilities

Journal of Organizational Behavior, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT People with disabilities (PWD) often face barriers to inclusion at work. To tackle this challenge, past research focused on the role of organizations to create more inclusive workplaces. What remains understudied, however, is the role that PWD often take themselves in shaping their inclusion experiences.

CK2 Phosphorylates and Inhibits TAp73 Tumor Suppressor Function to Promote Expression of Cancer Stem Cell Genes and Phenotype in Head and Neck Cancer

Neoplasia: An International Journal for Oncology Research, 2014
Cancer stem cells (CSC) and genes have been linked to cancer development and therapeutic resistance, but the signaling mechanisms regulating CSC genes and phenotype are incompletely understood. CK2 has emerged as a key signal serine/threonine kinase that

A novel central line securement vest reduces line trauma and improves quality of life in patients with intestinal failure

JPGN Reports, EarlyView.
Abstract Objective We sought to assess the impact of a novel central line securement vest on the rate of line complications (trauma, infections, and replacements), and measures of quality of life (QOL) in pediatric patients with intestinal failure. Methods We enrolled patients at a single tertiary pediatric center.

Robotic‐Assisted Electrode Array Insertion Improves Stability of Acoustic Hearing Thresholds

The Laryngoscope, EarlyView.
This study evaluated the impact of robotic‐assisted electrode array insertion on rates of delayed‐onset hearing loss (DOHL). DOHL occurred in 22 of 60 subjects (37%) in the manual cohort compared with 2 of 29 subjects (7%) in the robotic‐assisted cohort, representing a statistically significant reduction (p = 0.002).

Early Spectral Resolution Predicts Later Speech Recognition in Adult Cochlear Implant Recipients

The Laryngoscope, EarlyView.
In 531 ears from 498 adult cochlear implant recipients, spectral modulation detection (EasyQSMD) stabilized within 1 week post‐activation and significantly predicted later speech recognition outcomes. Early spectral resolution thresholds can identify potential poor performers during the critical first month, enabling earlier implementation of targeted ...
