Move and Play Programme: Perceptions of Paediatric Physiotherapists and Parents of Infants
Child: Care, Health and Development, Volume 52, Issue 5, September 2026.ABSTRACT Introduction Educational videos can improve parent engagement in early childhood development. For widespread adoption, these videos need to be practical and of high quality. This study evaluated how paediatric physiotherapists and parents perceived the educational videos of the ‘Move and Play Programme’.

Organizational Soundscapes and the Sonicity of Voices: The Power of the ‘Sounds’ that Carry ‘Words’
Journal of Management Studies, Volume 63, Issue 6, Page 2305-2331, September 2026.Abstract Organizations are soundscapes – they resonate with sounds and particularly the sounds of voices. Somehow however voice sonics, that is the sounds of voices and not the words carried on those sounds, have escaped attention in management studies. This absence of analysis is peculiar given voice sonics' undoubted influence on management (they may

MedComm, Volume 7, Issue 8, August 2026.Obstructive sleep apnea (OSA) is characterized by recurrent upper‐airway collapse, which generates key nocturnal stressors including intermittent hypoxia, sleep fragmentation, intrathoracic pressure stress, and sympathetic activation. These physiological disturbances converge on shared biological mechanisms, including oxidative stress, inflammation ...

Effect of Impact Load on Splice Length of Reinforcing Bars
International Journal of Concrete Structures and Materials, 2020 Impact loading damage of reinforced concrete (RC) members deteriorates bond strength of reinforcing bars. To understand the effect of strain rate on the bond strength of reinforcing bars in RC beams under impact load, drop hammer test was performed on ...
