Development of Betalactam‐Predictor: A Clinical Decision Tool for Delabeling Low‐Risk Betalactam Allergy Patients. Initial Validation in Penicillin Allergy

Allergy, EarlyView.
BL‐Predictor has emerged as a new tool for delabeling penicillin allergy. External validation has shown a specificity of 93% for detecting low‐risk patients. This score could potentially reduce diagnostic costs and the negative consequences associated with incorrect antibiotic allergy labels.

Investigating Remote Warfare as the Radical Undoing of Life: The Compounding Civilian Harm Effects of US‐Led Coalition Bombings in Iraq

Antipode, EarlyView.
Abstract The increased reliance on remote warfare by US‐led military coalitions presents us with questions of “what war is” and “how to know about war” in the 21st century. In this article we substantiate calls for an embodied epistemology of war by introducing a transdisciplinary research agenda to investigate the temporal and spatial civilian harm ...

A Comparison Study Between Electrical Muscle Stimulation and Transcutaneous Electrical Nerve Stimulation on Treatment of Myofascial Pain Syndrome

Artificial Organs, EarlyView.
Transverse placement of electrical muscle stimulation (EMS) electrodes across muscle fibers elicits localized contractions, facilitating greater active stretching (AS) of regions containing myofascial trigger points. This EMS + AS approach mimics passive stretching, with EMS providing resistance force similar to that typically applied by a therapist's ...
