OBJECTIVE: To estimate the benefits and harms of interventions with and without surgery for musculoskeletal (MSK) conditions. DESIGN: Intervention systematic review with meta-analysis of randomized controlled trials (RCTs). LITERATURE SEARCH: MEDLINE, EMBASE, CINAHL, Web of Science, and CENTRAL, all up to January 7, 2021. STUDY SELECTION CRITERIA: RCTs (English, German, Danish, Swedish, and Norweg

Reconstruction of indoor surfaces with limited texture information or with repeated textures, a situation common in walls and ceilings, may be difficult with a monocular Structure from Motion system. We propose a Semantic Room Wireframe Detection task to predict a Semantic Wireframe from a single perspective image. Such predictions may be used with shape priors to estimate the Room Layout and aid

A high-throughput method for the fabrication of ordered arrays of Au nanoparticles is presented. It is based on pulsed electrodeposition into porous anodic alumina templates. In contrast to many synthesis routes, it is cyanide-free, prior separation of the alumina template from the aluminium substrate is not required, and the use of contaminating surfactants/capping agents often found in colloidal

This article, based on a case study of direct action within the Swedish extra-parliamentary left, offers an investigation of political resistance as an embodied activity heavily associated with bodily vulnerability. In doing so, the article challenges the description of the extra-parliamentary left as a ‘violent extremist environment,’ offered by Swedish state authorities. The case study draws upo

In this paper, we approach the two weighted boundedness of commutators via matrix weights. This approach provides both a sufficient and a necessary condition for the two weighted boundedness of commutators with an arbitrary linear operator in terms of one matrix weighted norm inequalities for this operator. Furthermore, using this approach, we surprisingly provide conditions that almost characteri

The prediction of species geographic redistribution under climate change (i.e. range shifts) has been addressed by both experimental and modelling approaches and can be used to inform efficient policy measures on the functioning and services of future ecosystems. Dynamic global vegetation models (DGVMs) are considered state-of-the art tools to understand and quantify the spatio-temporal dynamics o

This paper explores the concept and the levels of genericity of different instruments, or beamlines, at a synchrotron radiation facility. We use conceptual tools from the sociology of science, bibliometrics and data from the European Synchrotron Radiation Facility (ESRF) publication database, enriched by data from Web of Science. The sample size is of 11,218 observations for the period 1996 to 201

Genetic variations are investigated in human and many other organisms for many purposes (e.g., to aid in clinical diagnosis). Interpretation of the identified variations can be challenging. Although some dedicated prediction methods have been developed and some tools for human variants can also be used for other organisms, the performance and species range have been limited. We developed a novel v

Motivated by the intriguing physics of quasi-two-dimensional fermionic systems, such as high-temperature superconducting oxides, layered transition metal chalcogenides, or surface or interface systems, the development of many-body computational methods geared at including both local and nonlocal electronic correlations has become a rapidly evolving field. It has been realized, however, that the su

The dynamics of the human body can be described by the accelerations and masses of the different body parts (e.g., legs, arm, trunk). These body parts can exhibit specific coordination patterns with each other. In human walking, we found that the swing leg cooperates with the upper body and the stance leg in different ways (e.g., in-phase and out-of-phase in vertical and horizontal directions, res

Background: [18F]PSMA-1007 is a promising tracer for integrated positron emission tomography and computed tomography (PET/CT). Objective: Our aim was to assess the diagnostic accuracy of [18F]PSMA-1007 PET/CT for primary staging of lymph node metastasis before robotic-assisted laparoscopy (RALP) with extended lymph node dissection (ePLND). Design, Setting and Participants: The study was a retrospe

Objective Data from the Paralympic Games indicate a fluctuating injury incidence in the Paralympic sport Goalball, but the mechanisms behind have not been explored. The aims of this study were to; i) quantitatively analyze Goalball injuries reported in the London 2012 and Rio 2016 Paralympic Games, ii) qualitatively explain the differences between both Games, and iii) qualitatively assess general

Background: The influencing factors of kinesiophobia (fear of movement) in patients with atrial fibrillation(AF)during the post-operative “Blanking Period” are not known. The aims were to investigate the status of kinesiophobia in patients with AF during the post-operative “Blanking Period”, then further describe the occurrence and analyze the influencing factors of patients' kinesiophobia by the
