BACKGROUND Despite best efforts by healthcare providers to sterilise their hands through hand washing prior to touching medical equipment and patients, bacteria are still present and can be spread through physical contact. We aimed to reduce the spread of touch-induced and airborne bacteria and virus spreading by using a touch-free glove-dispensing system that minimally exposes gloves in the bo...

Background Diagnosing an anterior cruciate ligament (ACL) rupture based on a physical examination remains a challenge for both surgeons and physical therapists. The lever sign test was developed to overcome the practical limitations of other tests and to optimize diagnosis. An evaluation of the measurement properties of the lever sign test is needed to make adequate interpretations in practice....

Peer-to-peer complementary currencies can be powerful tools for promoting collaborations and building relationships on the Internet. i-WAT[13] is a proposed such currency based on the WAT System[18], a polycentric complementary currency using WAT tickets as its medium of exchange. Participants spontaneously issue and circulate the tickets as needed, whose values are backed up by chains of trust...

Objective: To asses the validity of three physical diagnostic tests for the demonstration of rupture of the anterior cruciate ligament (ACL): the anterior drawer test, the Lachman test, and the pivot shift test. Design: Meta-analysis of diagnostic studies. Data sources: From computerised searches of Medline (1966–2004) and Embase (1980–2004), publications were selected that were written in Engl...

We examine the predicted replicability of experimental research on system justification theory (SJT) by conducting a z-curve analysis. Z-curve is meta-analytic technique similar to p-curve, but which performs better under conditions heterogeneity. It estimates replication rate, average power, false discovery risk, and file drawer ratio (FDR) sample studies. The based 116 papers 232 unique sampl...

The digitisation standard, MIDS (Minimum Information about a Digital Specimen), has been developed to provide clear definition for the level of specimens held in natural science collections. standard comprises three levels digitisation: Level 1 (Basic) is equivalent virtual cabinet or drawer collection; 2 (Regular) provides information needed most research; 3 (Extended) all on specimen itself a...

Background: Cricket is a competitive, physically challenging game requiring wide range of attribute including explosive power strength agility speed and physical mental toughness. The study aimed to determine the prevalence posterior ankle impingement syndrome in fast bowlers after sprain. Methods: In this club level age group ranging from 18-25 years were considered. Selection subjects done as...
