Plastics and labor: The case of disposable medical plastics

Medical Anthropology Quarterly, EarlyView.
Abstract Plastics are ubiquitous in the contemporary practice of medicine, where they are tied to notions of hygiene and quality of care. However, when plastics first infiltrated global medical practice, they did so because of considerations related to patient comfort and durability.

Interval identification of natural effects in the presence of outcome‐related unmeasured confounding

Scandinavian Journal of Statistics, EarlyView.
Abstract With reference to a binary outcome and a binary mediator, we derive identification bounds for natural effects under a reduced set of assumptions. Specifically, no assumptions about confounding are made that involve the outcome; we only assume no unobserved exposure‐mediator confounding as well as a pair of conditions termed Partially Constant ...

Natural progression of tarsal osteochondrosis in Standardbred pacers and trotters

Veterinary Surgery, EarlyView.
Abstract Objective To determine the natural progression of tarsal osteochondrosis (OC) in a cohort of Standardbred foals and assess the impact of gait preference (trotting vs. pacing). Study design Longitudinal observational cohort study. Animals Client‐owned Standardbred foals (n = 148).

Risk assessment for condylar stress fracture in elite racing Thoroughbreds using standing computed tomography‐based virtual mechanical testing

Equine Veterinary Journal, Volume 58, Issue 3, Page 674-681, May 2026.
Abstract Background Condylar stress fracture of the third metacarpal bone (MC3) is a common catastrophic injury in Thoroughbred racehorses and is associated with parasagittal groove (PSG) subchondral osteolysis. Standing computed tomography (sCT) imaging enables sensitive identification of this fatigue‐induced early subchondral bone injury (SBI), but ...

Ultrasonographic diagnosis of caudoproximal humeral stress fracture in thoroughbred racehorses

Equine Veterinary Journal, Volume 58, Issue 3, Page 788-796, May 2026.
Abstract Background Humeral stress fractures in racehorses can progress to catastrophic fracture if unrecognised. Scintigraphy is the gold standard diagnostic technique but is limited by accessibility and cost. It was hypothesised that ultrasonography could be used to visualise caudoproximal humeral stress fractures. Objectives To determine the utility

Effect of Suspension Length and Substrate Curvature on Electric Field Distribution in Emergency Anti-Galloping Cables

IEEE Access
Galloping of transmission lines caused by wind and ice accumulation poses significant threats to the stability of power grids. While most existing research has focused on preventive anti-galloping devices intended to inhibit galloping before it occurs ...

Frequency Selection and Phase Locking during Aeroelastic Galloping [PDF]

, 2014
This paper presents an analysis of the aeroelastic galloping of an elastically mounted square cross section in a free stream. The classic quasi-steady model [1] is used as a starting point.
