Impact of pre‐examination video education in Gd‐EOB‐DTPA‐enhanced liver MRI: A comparative study

Journal of Medical Radiation Sciences, Volume 72, Issue 1, Page 34-41, March 2025.
This study evaluates the effects of pre‐examination video education on patient anxiety, satisfaction and image quality in Gd‐EOB‐DTPA‐enhanced liver MRI. We found that video education significantly reduced anxiety, increased patient satisfaction and improved image quality compared to standard pre‐MRI guidance, highlighting the potential of video ...

Bridging Bystander Intervention and Workplace Inclusion: The Critical Role of Perceived Fairness, Support, and Safety

Journal of Organizational Behavior, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Bystander intervention is widely assumed to foster workplace inclusion, yet no studies have directly examined this relationship. Through abductive qualitative analysis of 53 interviews across two contrasting organisations—a consulting firm and a remote mine site—we investigate how bystander intervention relates to workplace inclusion for ...

Development and Evaluation of a Loudness Validation Method With Natural Signals for Hearing Aid Fitting

Trends in Hearing
Loudness is a fundamental dimension of auditory perception. When hearing impairment results in a loudness deficit, hearing aids are typically prescribed to compensate for this. However, the relationship between an individual’s specific hearing impairment

The Laryngeal Auditory Startle Reflex (LASR): A New Component of the Auditory Startle Response

The Laryngoscope, EarlyView.
The auditory startle reflex contains a distinct laryngeal component, termed the laryngeal auditory startle reflex (LASR). In healthy adults, the LASR is modulated by supratentorial influences and habituates to repetitive stimuli. Physiologic and pathologic implications for the LASR as a component of the overall human SR remain to be determined but may ...
