The third axis: partner choice

Author(s): Kuhlmeier VA; Dunfield KA;

Though we find the 'triple theory' of moral cognition, with its emphasis on resource-rational contractualism, to be well argued, we suggest that Levine et al.'s model starts too late in the process. That is, we agree that their proposed abstractions and heuristics can help to develop mutually beneficial arrangements, but effective contracts al ...

The impact of cancer therapy-related oral complications on the quality of life and well-being of childhood cancer survivors: A scoping review

Author(s): Attaran Kakhki N; Sharma A; Balador T; Carnevale FA; Ferraz Dos Santos B; Macdonald ME;

Objective: This study aimed to review the scientific literature on the effects of cancer treatment-related oral complications on the quality of life and well-being of children surviving cancer. This study updates a previous review, from 2012, evaluating the oral health related quality of life and well-being of childhood cancer survivors and exploring the ...

It s Primarily Around Their Viral Load : Public Health Decision-Making and HIV Risk Assemblages in Ontario, Canada

Author(s): Daroya E; French M; Hastings C; Krüsi A; Molldrem S; Owino M; Peck R; Wah A; McClelland A;

In Ontario, Canada, public health authorities can issue and enforce orders to people living with HIV (PLWH). However, how public health practitioners determine when someone's behaviours constitute 'significant' risk remains underexplored. We drew on assemblage theory to examine how HI ...

A Systematic Review and Meta-Analysis of Biological Sex Differences in Sleep Spindles and Slow Wave Activity in Adults With and Without Insomnia

Author(s): Walsh NA; Phillips EM; Páez A; Cross NE; Dang-Vu TT; Perrault AA;

Mounting evidence shows sex-based differences in sleep experiences and outcomes, including the prevalence of insomnia disorder. However, the impact of biological sex on brain oscillations during sleep remains poorly understood, especially in the context of insomnia disorder. This is a notable gap, given that neurophysiological aspects of sleep are associa ...

Investigating Physical Exercise and Cognitive Training Effects on Cognition and Brain Health in Men and Women with Heart Failure: The ReCARDIO Trial

Author(s): Bherer L; Besnier F; Gagnon C; Vrinceanu T; Vincent T; Mohammadi H; Gauthier C; Duquesne C; Blanchette CA; Bérubé B; Said SN; Iglesies-Grau J; L' Allier P; Boulet J; Nigam A; Dionne V; Benhalima H; Dubé MP; Duchesne S; Belleville S; ...

Cognitive impairment can affect up to 50% of patients with chronic heart failure (CHF) and is associated with reduced treatment adherence, high mortality rates, and poor quality of life. Nonpharmacologic strategies, including cognitive intervention and physical exercise training, may help enhance ...

Sex differences in the association of adverse childhood experiences with brain and cognition along a continuum of risk for Alzheimer s disease

Author(s): Perovic M; Phillips NA; Einstein G;

Introduction: Women make up two-thirds of people with Alzheimer's disease (AD). Research has focused on biological explanations for this sex difference, while contributions of psychosocial risk factors are less well understood. Methods: We examined sex differences in the effects of adverse childhood experiences (ACEs) on late-life cognition in groups ...

From Sparse Nanoparticles to Graded Interfaces: Beyond Classical Descriptions of LiF Growth on Organic Semiconductors

Author(s): Oliviera P; Maye F; Turak A;

Small-molecule π $\pi$ -conjugated semiconductors provide an ordered platform for probing interfacial mechanisms in organic optoelectronics, where device performance and stability are dominated by interface effects. Lithium fluoride, despite its widespread use as an interlayer, remains paradoxical: essential for high device efficiencies yet governe ...

Microsphere-Templated Conductive Syntactic Foams for Recyclable and Additively Manufactured Soft Electronics

Author(s): Petrossian G; Diouri Y; Xu B; Ebrahimi S; Pande A; Miquet-Westphal F; Xu H; Cicoira F;

Soft, conductive materials that simultaneously offer mechanical compliance, electrical conductivity, recyclability, and scalable manufacturing remain difficult to achieve. Here, we introduce recyclable, 3D-printable PEDOT:PSS syntactic foams based on polymer microspheres coated in situ, enabling precise control over porosity, mechanical properties, and el ...

On the Implementation of a Compact Vertical DC Biasing Network with Significantly Reduced RF Components for Phase-Shifter-Free Beam Steering

Author(s): Zheng S; Qian B; Chen X; Kishk AA;

Dense direct-current (DC) bias routing and numerous radio-frequency (RF) choke inductors pose major challenges to the practical implementation of phase-shifter-free beam steering using PIN-controlled phase switching. To address this issue, a compact vertical DC biasing network is proposed, in which most DC bias lines are routed beneath the ground plane. T ...

From Rapid Reviews to Rapid Living Evidence Synthesis: Lessons From COVID-19 Vaccine Effectiveness Reviews for Canadian Public Health Decision-Making

Author(s): Wu N; Joyal-Desmarais K; Linkins LA; Flórez ID; Bacon SL;

Background: The COVID-19 pandemic demanded evidence synthesis approaches that could keep pace with rapidly evolving science and urgent policy needs. Rapid reviews and living evidence syntheses (LES) emerged as critical methodological responses, yet limited guidance exists for teams undertaking such work, particularly regarding the operational challenges o ...

Whole-Night Gentle Rocking Improves Sleep in Poor Sleepers With Insomnia Complaints

Author(s): Perrault AA; Cross NE; Dang Vu TT; Schwartz S; Bayer L;

Specific brain oscillations can be manipulated during sleep to improve sleep quality and memory performance. We previously demonstrated that continuous rocking stimulation (0.25 Hz, lateral movement) applied to good sleepers during sleep enhanced stable deep sleep, boosted NREM oscillations (spindles and slow waves) and memory consolidation. Here, we inve ...
