(2020). Diagnostic accuracy of history taking, physical examination and imaging for phalangeal, metacarpal and carpal fractures: a systematic review update. BMC Musculoskeletal Disorders, 12 - ?. https://doi.org/10.1186/s12891-019-2988-z

BACKGROUND: The standard diagnostic work-up for hand and wrist fractures consists of history taking, physical examination and imaging if needed, but the supporting evidence for this work-up is limited. The purpose of this study was to systematically...

This Tutored Discourse constitutes a preliminary exposure on how synthesis chemists can engage positively with inexpensive, low-power microcontrollers to aid control, monitoring and optimisation of chemical reactions. The acquired skillset adds a new... Read More about A tutored discourse on microcontrollers, single board computers and their applications to monitor and control chemical reactions.

Do Asian Patients Require Only Half of the Clozapine Dose Prescribed for Caucasians? A Critical Overview (2020)
Journal Article
Farooq. (2020). Do Asian Patients Require Only Half of the Clozapine Dose Prescribed for Caucasians? A Critical Overview. Indian Journal of Psychological Medicine, 4-10. https://doi.org/10.4103/IJPSYM.IJPSYM_379_19

Since 1997, studies have found that Asians need lower clozapine doses than Caucasians. Caucasians with average clozapine metabolism may need from 300 to 600 mg/day to reach the therapeutic range (350 ng/ml). Thus, serum clozapine concentration-to-dos...

In the conclusion, a short analysis of a founding myth of ‘British’ rock climbing—the ‘Munich Climb’ incident—demonstrates how far contests over the meanings of modernity continued to shape mountain leisure cultures into the twentieth century. It goe... Read More about Conclusion.

A comparative study of the nature and magnitude of problems sleeping in inflammatory bowel disease (IBD) compared to healthy controls (2020)
Journal Article
Scott, A. J., Flowers, O., & Rowse, G. (2020). A comparative study of the nature and magnitude of problems sleeping in inflammatory bowel disease (IBD) compared to healthy controls. Psychology, Health and Medicine, 25(8), 958-968. https://doi.org/10.1080/13548506.2019.1707240

Inflammatory Bowel Disease (IBD) is commonly associated with poor global sleep quality, and has been posited as a modifiable determinant of IBD related outcomes. However, there is little evidence on the specific types of problems sleeping (e.g., slee...
