Development and validation of the gynecologic examination anxiety scale (GEAS): A 20‐item patient‐reported measure

open access: yesInternational Journal of Gynecology &Obstetrics, EarlyView.
Abstract Objective Gynecologic examinations often provoke anxiety, embarrassment, and a perceived loss of control. Valid, patient‐focused tools that specifically quantify examination‐related anxiety remain limited. This study developed and validated the gynecologic examination anxiety scale (GEAS). Methods In a methodological study conducted in Turkey (

Dosimetry, Toxicity and Stability Associated With a Hyaluronic Acid‐Based Prostate‐Rectal Spacing Device During Prostate Radiation Therapy: A Retrospective Comparative Analysis

open access: yesJournal of Medical Radiation Sciences, EarlyView.
Rectal spacers composed of stabilised hyaluronic acid facilitated a favourable toxicity profile compared to no spacing during prostate radiation therapy. Acute GI toxicity (grade ≥ 1) was lower in the spacer cohort (23.5% vs. 48.0%; odds ratio = 0.33, p = 0.05) with grade ≥ 2 toxicity substantially lower (2.9% vs. 20.0%).

Rapid Postmortem Temporal Bone Extraction and Dissection of Human Inner Ear Organs From Organ Donors

open access: yesThe Laryngoscope, EarlyView.
We developed a postmortem protocol for temporal bone extraction and dissection in organ donors, enabling atraumatic bilateral temporal bone retrieval within 1–2 h of ischemia, followed by stepwise microsurgical dissection of neurosensory organs. Combining rapid extraction, abbreviated decalcification, and atraumatic microsurgical dissection, this ...

EHR‐Integrated Synoptic Operative Reporting for Head and Neck Oncologic Surgery

open access: yesThe Laryngoscope, EarlyView.
EHR‐integrated synoptic operative templates for head and neck oncologic surgery was developed and implemented at a tertiary academic cancer center. Departmental adherence rose from 49% to nearly 80% over 6 months, and 94.5% of reviewed cases met targets for complete, internally consistent documentation. The resulting structured data dictionary provides

Shear Strength Design Formula for RC Beams with Stirrups

open access: yes, 2013
The shear strength increase due to stirrup inclusion in reinforced concrete beams is analyzed. A number of 126 experimental values of this increase is obtained from the literature as difference between the shear strength of a beam with stirrups and that ...

Scan for Success? Number Needed to Scan and Management Changes in Preoperative Otosclerosis: Quantitative Analysis

open access: yesOtolaryngology–Head and Neck Surgery, EarlyView.
Abstract Objective To quantify the cumulative number of images needed to scan (NNS) with preoperative high‐resolution temporal bone computed tomography (HR‐TBCT) to yield a change in management in patients undergoing primary stapes surgery for otosclerosis‐related hearing loss. Study Design Retrospective cohort.

Using art history to explore society's changing connections with agriculture

open access: yesPLANTS, PEOPLE, PLANET, EarlyView.
Food insecurity is a looming challenge that especially affects those least fortunate. Consumer food choices have a substantial impact on the sustainability of current food systems. Here, we use art as a lens through which to consider our contemporary and historical relationship to one of the world's most crucial crops, the potato, in the context of the

Improving Demographics and Conservation of Fishes Through Multi‐Frame Individual Distinctions by Size (MIDS)

open access: yesRemote Sensing in Ecology and Conservation, EarlyView.
MIDS (Multi‐frame Individual Distinctions by Size) is a new software package for improving how fish populations are assessed using stereo‐video data. By using the length, error and statistical inference of measurements, MIDS distinguishes individuals across multiple video frames and autonomously removes repeat observations, regardless of when the ...
