Exploring habit strength, reward value, and context stability of sedentary activities in older adults: An ecological momentary assessment study

Applied Psychology: Health and Well-Being, Volume 18, Issue 2, April 2026.
Abstract Sedentary behavior (SB) poses significant health risks. Still, older adults frequently engage in SB, presumably driven by habit. As stable contexts and rewarding experiences reinforce habits, understanding these mechanisms is essential for designing effective interventions. This study used sensor‐triggered ecological momentary assessments (EMA)

Applying the Mini‐Open Anterolateral Lumbar Interbody Fusion with Self‐Anchored Stand‐Alone Polyetheretherketone Cage in Lumbar Revision Surgery

BioMed Research International, Volume 2016, Issue 1, 2016., 2016
The author retrospectively studied twenty‐two patients who underwent revision lumbar surgeries using ALLIF with a self‐anchored stand‐alone polyetheretherketone (PEEK) cage. The operation time, blood loss, and perioperative complications were evaluated.

Variable Selection via Fused Sparse‐Group Lasso Penalized Multi‐state Models Incorporating Molecular Data

Biometrical Journal, Volume 67, Issue 6, December 2025.
ABSTRACT In multi‐state models based on high‐dimensional data, effective modeling strategies are required to determine an optimal, ideally parsimonious model. In particular, linking covariate effects across transitions is needed to conduct joint variable selection.

Risk Factors Associated with Cognitive Decline after Cardiac Surgery: A Systematic Review

Cardiovascular Psychiatry and Neurology, Volume 2015, Issue 1, 2015., 2015
Modern day cardiac surgery evolved upon the advent of cardiopulmonary bypass machines (CPB) in the 1950s. Following this development, cardiac surgery in recent years has improved significantly. Despite such advances and the introduction of new technologies, neurological sequelae after cardiac surgery still exist.

Biomechanics of Disc Degeneration

Advances in Orthopedics, Volume 2012, Issue 1, 2012., 2012
Disc degeneration and associated disorders are among the most debated topics in the orthopedic literature over the past few decades. These may be attributed to interrelated mechanical, biochemical, and environmental factors. The treatment options vary from conservative approaches to surgery, depending on the severity of degeneration and response to ...

Modelling approaches for meta‐analyses with dependent effect sizes in ecology and evolution: A simulation study

Methods in Ecology and Evolution, Volume 16, Issue 10, Page 2362-2379, October 2025.
Abstract In ecology and evolution, meta‐analysis is an important tool to synthesise findings across separate studies and identify sources of heterogeneity. However, ecological and evolutionary data often exhibit complex dependence structures, such as shared sources of variation within studies, phylogenetic relationships and hierarchical sampling ...

Evaluation of extra‐corporeal membrane oxygenator cannulae in pulsatile and non‐pulsatile pediatric mock circuits

Artificial Organs, Volume 49, Issue 3, Page 420-430, March 2025.
This study aims to evaluate ECMO cannulae in pulsatile and non‐pulsatile pediatric mock circuits. Under non‐pulsatile conditions, the system was characterized by overall higher pressures, resulting in lower support to the patient and higher total hemodynamic energy. Pressure gradients and M number were not affected by the testing conditions.

Transparent reporting items for simulation studies evaluating statistical methods: Foundations for reproducibility and reliability

Methods in Ecology and Evolution, Volume 15, Issue 11, Page 1926-1939, November 2024.
Abstract Simulation studies are essential tools to assess statistical methods. Functioning as controlled experiments, simulations generate data from known underlying processes. However, unclear or incomplete reporting of simulation studies can impact their interpretability and reproducibility, potentially leading to the misuse of statistical methods ...

Clinical and Radiological Outcomes of Cervical Disc Arthroplasty in Patients with Modic Change

Orthopaedic Surgery, Volume 16, Issue 7, Page 1562-1570, July 2024.
A patient with type 3 Modic changes on C6 vertebrae underwent a single level cervical disc arthroplasty. The patient with Modic changes was observed with severe heterotopic ossification. Objective Modic change (MC) is defined as abnormalities observed in the intervertebral disc subchondral and adjacent vertebral endplate subchondral bone changes.
