Graduates' conceptions of meaningful work

open access: yesBritish Educational Research Journal, EarlyView.
Abstract This paper explores how meaningful work is conceptualised by recent graduates. Whilst the imperative to maximise economic returns from higher education (HE) endures in HE policy, less attention is given to how meaningful work is and its relationship to values and identities.

Effect of distinct warm up routines on torque production and range of motion in young males

open access: yes, 2008
Stretching exercises are commonly included in warm-up routines before resistance exercises. However, some authors suggest that stretching exercises may affect negatively activities that require maximal strength. The purpose of this study was to verify the impact of three different warm-up sessions on hip range of motion (ROM), peak torque and total ...

The Curious Concept That Almost Nobody Seemed to Care About at First: Virtual Particles in the Post‐War Period**

open access: yesBerichte zur Wissenschaftsgeschichte, EarlyView.
Abstract Short‐lived, unobservable, and not subject to the usual rules of conservation of energy and momentum, virtual particles—an integral part of the conceptual framework of quantum field theory (QFT)—exhibit a number of curious characteristics which, in recent decades, have in part fueled important discussions about their ontological status ...

Neural electrodes for brain‐computer interface system: From rigid to soft

open access: yesBMEMat, EarlyView.
Here, we review the development trends of neural electrodes in BCI. This paper highlights the critical role of electrodes in BCI systems, analyzes the limitations of rigid electrodes, and introduces various flexible electrodes. Furthermore, we discuss application scenarios and prospects of BCI electrode technology, aiming to provide valuable references

Optimizing biophysical properties of cellular niches to enhance stem cell‐derived extracellular vesicle function in musculoskeletal regeneration

open access: yesBMEMat, EarlyView.
Extracellular vesicles (EVs) derived from stem cells show promise for applications in regenerative medicine, but their scalability and yield remain challenges. This review explores the approaches for biophysical modulations within cell niches on EV properties, discusses the current clinical application of EVs, and provides an outlook on the existing ...

Axonal profiling of the common fibular nerve and its branches: Their functional composition and clinical implications

open access: yesClinical Anatomy, EarlyView.
Abstract The articular branch (Arb) from the common fibular nerve (CFN) plays a pivotal role in procedures such as genicular nerve blocks since it extensively innervates the anterolateral knee joint. It remains unclear whether the Arb can be classified as purely sensory, and understanding its axonal composition is critical to prevent muscle weakness ...

Morphology of the sternoclavicular joint and its microanatomical changes in response to osteoarthritic degeneration

open access: yesClinical Anatomy, EarlyView.
Abstract Although the sternoclavicular joint shares structural similarities with the knee and hip joints as a diarthrodial joint, its biomechanics differ significantly due to its non‐weight‐bearing nature. Nevertheless, it is subject to considerable loading, leading to increased susceptibility to osteoarthritis, a prevalent condition characterized by ...

Anatomical Study of the Retrodural Space of Okada in the Cervical Region: 3D Micro‐CT Findings

open access: yesClinical Anatomy, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT The retrodural space of Okada (RSO) is a potential space located posterior to the ligamentum flavum. It can complicate epidural injections owing to its communication with the epidural space and facet joints. The purpose of this study was to clarify the anatomical structures of the cervical RSO and adjacent ligamentous tissues in cadavers ...
