The Implementation of Frailty Assessment Tools in the Acute Care Setting: A Scoping Review

open access: yesJournal of the American Geriatrics Society, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Background Frailty is a syndrome of increased vulnerability to health stressors that is associated with adverse health outcomes. There is no universally accepted method of measuring frailty, and choosing among the many tools is often confusing for clinicians. Moreover, the acute care setting presents unique challenges to the operationalization

Children With Fragile X Syndrome Display a Switch Towards Fast Fibres in Their Recruitment Strategy During Gait

open access: yesJournal of Intellectual Disability Research, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Background Fragile X Syndrome (FXS) is a genetic disorder caused by the lack of FMRP, a crucial protein for brain development and function. FMR1 mutations are categorized into premutation and full mutation (FXSFull), with somatic mosaicism (FXSMos) modulating the FXS phenotype.

Effect of Biomechanical Properties of Perioral Soft Tissues on Lip Response to Simulated Protraction of Upper Front Teeth

open access: yesJournal of Oral Rehabilitation, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Background Proclination of front teeth in orthodontics and oral rehabilitation may influence lip protrusion and the overall facial profile. We hypothesized that the degree of profile changes is determined by the biomechanical properties of the lips. Objectives (1) to investigate the upper lip changes induced by a simulated protraction of upper
