Simulation of the 2022 Mw 6.6 Luding, China, earthquake with the updated EXSIM

open access: yesDiscover Geoscience
Stochastic finite-fault ground motion simulation is extensively utilized across a range of scientific and engineering fields. The current theoretical modeling of corner frequency in the source spectrum model is flawed, as it fails to take the rupture ...

Lived and Care Experiences of Chronic Musculoskeletal Shoulder Pain in Australian Adults: A Qualitative Study

open access: yesArthritis Care &Research, EarlyView.
Objective Australian evidence on lived and care experiences of chronic musculoskeletal shoulder pain (CMSP), irrespective of disorder classification or disease, is limited. However, such evidence is important for person‐centered care and informing local service pathways and care guidelines or standards.

Assessing extent of building damage following an earthquake: case study of the 2023 Turkey-Syria doublet

open access: yesnpj Natural Hazards
An earthquake doublet (M w 7.8 and M w 7.5) struck southeastern Turkey on February 6, 2023, causing widespread devastation. To evaluate seismic damage across 11 provinces, we analysed strong motion data, developed fragility functions and building damage ...

Hydroxychloroquine Associated With Lower Glomerular Filtration Rate Decline in Lupus Nephritis

open access: yesArthritis Care &Research, EarlyView.
Objective Hydroxychloroquine (HCQ) protects kidney function in lupus nephritis (LN) by preventing flares, yet some cohort studies show no significant benefit in kidney function with HCQ. Clarifying these conflicting findings by showing early and long‐term benefits of HCQ on kidney function preservation is critical.

Investigating Possible Regional Dependence in Strong Ground Motions [PDF]

open access: yes, 2010
It is common practice to use ground-motion models, often developed by regression on recorded accelerograms, to predict the expected earthquake ground motions at sites of interest. An important consideration when selecting these models is the possible dependence of ground motions on geographical region, i.e., are median ground motions in the (target ...

Virtual or In‐Person: Does It Matter? Comparing Pain, Function, Quality of Life, Self‐Efficacy, and Physical Function Outcomes of Virtual, Hybrid, and In‐Person Education and Exercise Program Participants

open access: yesArthritis Care &Research, EarlyView.
Objective This study aimed to determine if program format (in‐person, virtual, or hybrid) results in differences in 3‐month outcomes of pain, function, quality of life, self‐efficacy, and chair stands in a hip/knee osteoarthritis‐management program. Methods A secondary analysis of the Good Life with osteoArthritis in Denmark (GLA:D) Canada database was

A Qualitative Analysis of Patient Perspectives and Preferences in Lupus Management to Guide Lupus Guidelines Development

open access: yesArthritis Care &Research, EarlyView.
Objective A patient‐centered approach for chronic disease management, including systemic lupus erythematosus (SLE), aligns treatment with patients’ values and preferences, leading to improved outcomes. This paper summarizes how patient experiences, perspectives, and priorities informed the American College of Rheumatology (ACR) 2024 Lupus Nephritis (LN)

A decomposition of strong ground motion

open access: yesBulletin of the New Zealand Society for Earthquake Engineering, 1994
The Cedar Hills Nursery strong motion record of the 1987 October 1st Whittier Narrows earthquake can be decomposed into five physically distinct components. These are the usual radial, circumferential and vertical components, plus a 2.84 Hz resonance along 317° N and a 3.27 Hz resonance along 317° N.

Validation of the Pediatric Arthritis Ultrasound Scoring System for the Elbow, Wrist, and Finger Joints in Children With Juvenile Idiopathic Arthritis

open access: yesArthritis Care &Research, EarlyView.
Objective We aimed to validate the Pediatric Arthritis Ultrasound Scoring System (PAUSS) for upper extremity joints in children with juvenile idiopathic arthritis (JIA). Methods Children with JIA were evaluated for elbow, wrist, or finger arthritis by clinical examination (CE) and musculoskeletal ultrasound (MSUS) with images scored according to the ...
