Fear of falling is associated with physical functioning, activity performance, and participation in individuals with multiple sclerosis

PM&R, EarlyView.
Abstract Background Fear of falling (FoF) is a common concern in individuals with multiple sclerosis (MS). Understanding whether and how FoF affects activities and participation is crucial for developing effective rehabilitation programs in individuals with MS.

Effects of adjustable‐volume transfemoral prosthetic sockets on balance and falls: A randomized clinical trial

PM&R, EarlyView.
Abstract Background Adjustable‐volume prosthetic sockets have been developed to allow users to accommodate volume fluctuations throughout the day. Improvement in socket fit is thought to enhance the connection between the user's residual limb and prosthesis and may therefore improve postural control and balance.

Prevalence of shoulder subluxation diagnosed via ultrasound screening in infants with birth brachial plexus injuries

PM&R, EarlyView.
Abstract Introduction Posterior shoulder subluxation and glenohumeral dysplasia are known secondary complications of birth brachial plexus palsies (BBPP) that contribute to functional limitations. The prevalence of shoulder subluxation in infants with BBPP and the timeline of when subluxation occurs in the first year of life remain unclear, with prior ...

Human, oceanographic and habitat drivers of central and western Pacific coral reef fish assemblages.

PLoS ONE, 2015
Coral reefs around US- and US-affiliated Pacific islands and atolls span wide oceanographic gradients and levels of human impact. Here we examine the relative influence of these factors on coral reef fish biomass, using data from a consistent large-scale

Chemical diversity and phylogenetic insights into Hawaiian ʻākia (Wikstroemia) species used in traditional fishing practices

PLANTS, PEOPLE, PLANET, EarlyView.
Traditional fishing with plant‐based piscicides is a global practice in decline, facing increasing restrictions. We investigated the chemical diversity of endemic Wikstroemia species historically used to stun or poison fish in Hawaiʻi. Using 1‐H‐NMR, principal component analysis, targeted HPLC, and target‐capture sequencing, we characterized compounds ...

An Ecological Perspective on Inshore Fisheries in the Main Hawaiian Islands

, 1993
A description of fisheries within a depth of 100 fathoms is provided for the eight southeastern-most islands of the Hawaiian Archipelago, known as the main Hawaiian Islands (MHI). These are the inhabited islands of the State of Hawaii and are those most subject to inshore fishing pressure, because of their accessibility.

Increased utilitarian value of invasive species in regions with long invasion history may limit public engagement for invasion control

PLANTS, PEOPLE, PLANET, EarlyView.
Positive perceptions of invasive species can hinder effective management, especially if management efforts that are rooted in scientific theories are misaligned with local ecological knowledge. We documented local ecological knowledge about land invasibility as predicted by invasion biology theories. Participants with greater local ecological knowledge

Localizable Climate Change Education in Schools: Examining Impacts on Students' Environmental Science Agency

Science Education, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT As our daily lives become increasingly affected by climate change, school‐based science education plays a critical role in preparing students to understand and respond to this global crisis. This cohort controlled quasi‐experimental study conducted in the United States examined whether a localized climate change storyline unit compared to ...

When stakeholders are imposed: Non‐chosen stakeholder orientation and venture performance

Strategic Entrepreneurship Journal, EarlyView.
Abstract Research Summary Extending stakeholder theory into the entrepreneurship context, we examine the performance implications of externally imposed stakeholder orientation, which we conceptualize as non‐chosen stakeholder orientation. Given the resource constraints, short time horizons, and high levels of uncertainty that characterize ventures, we ...

Private to Public: Deterrent Effects of Bans on Confidential Settlements

Southern Economic Journal, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Nondisclosure agreements are common in the settlement of legal disputes but are controversial as they suppress information that could prevent harm to others. But until the 2017 #MeToo movement, there had been little legislative effort to prohibit the practice in any context, and consequently no evidence on whether public disclosure of harms ...
