Abstract:

Background: The Coping with Multiple Sclerosis Scale (CMSS) was developed to assess coping strategies specific to multiple sclerosis (MS). Despite its wide application in MS research, psychometric support for the CMSS remains limited to the initial factor analytic investigation by Pakenham in 2001. Methods: The current investigation assessed the factor structure and construct validity of the CMSS. Participants with MS (N = 453) completed the CMSS, as well as measures of disability related to MS (Multiple Sclerosis Impact Scale), quality of life (World Health Organization Quality of Life Brief

Abstract:

Optimal health of people with multiple sclerosis (MS) can be promoted by patients' sharing of health information gained through periodic self-monitoring with their health-care providers. The purpose of this study was to develop a valid and reliable self-administered scale to obtain information about MS patients' health status and the impact of the disease on their daily lives. We named this scale “Monitoring My Multiple Sclerosis” (MMMS). A cross-sectional survey was conducted of 171 MS patients who completed the MMMS and Patient-Determined Disease Steps (PDDS) scales and provided information

Abstract:

Fatigue is the most common symptom of multiple sclerosis and is perhaps the symptom with the most devastating impact on patient well-being. It is reported by 75% to 95% of individuals, and more than half describe it as the worst symptom of the disease. The mechanisms underlying the development of fatigue remain unclear; although fatigue is believed to be a primary symptom of MS (ie, related to the demyelinating processes of the disease), fatigue may also occur secondarily to factors such as sleep disturbances, depression, or the effects of medications. The highly variable presentation of MS an

Abstract:

MS is a significant source of stress for many individuals. It is a chronic disease. The onset most often is in young adulthood. There are no preventative measures. Treatment is limited and often ineffective. For many the disease is characterised by unpredictable periods of remission and exacerbation of symptoms. When the 'flares' are frequent or of long duration, there is often poor coping, including depressive symptoms and impaired quality of life. Coping is an important component in the management of this disease. Perception plays a major role in coping. Literature search showed no evidence

Abstract:

Multiple Sclerosis (MS) is a chronic disease with an unpredictable course that impacts significantly on physical performance. Exercise or fitness has become an essential part of management and health promotion for persons with MS. The gold standard measure of exercise capacity (VO2peak) is the maximal exercise test, a graded test that involves an increase in workload until exhaustion is reached. Although this test is the most accurate measure of exercise capacity, it is not clinically useful. Therefore, the main objective of this cross-sectional study is to estimate the exten

Abstract:

A large scale rotor test has been performed to evaluate concepts for improving the high thrust and high speed capabilities of an edgewise single rotor helicopter. The primary approach was to alleviate dynamic stall using centrifugally pumped steady blowing, referred to as Retreating Side Blowing (RSB). This concept was studied earlier for an airfoil with a flow control slot able to generate momentum coefficients of 0.03 to 0.05 using computational simulation and experiment. The current experiment uses a 28 ft diameter rotor having an inlet at the blade root, a hollow spar, and a series of flow

Abstract:

Introduction: Multiple sclerosis (MS) is the most prevalent chronic inflammatory disease of the central nervous system (CNS). It affects over 2 million people worldwide and is currently incurable. Similarly to autoimmune diseases, multiple sclerosis can significantly affect the patient’s lifetime, especially in terms of compromising their quality of life (QoL). Objectives: To analyze the QoL in patients with MS at a Reference Center for Multiple Sclerosis in Paraíba (CREM/PB). Dessign: A transversal, exploratory, and descriptive study.

Abstract:

In 2022/23 Higher Education Progression Partnership (Hepp) piloted a multiple intervention programme (MIP) for learners in Years 8 to 10. Three interventions were delivered, aiming to provide participants with the knowledge, skills, and confidence to make informed decisions about progression to higher education. Evidence suggests that such sustained interventions are more impactful on increasing HE access, as well as enabling Hepp to conduct more robust evaluation. As a pilot study, we were aiming to test any measurable change in outcomes. We aimed for a wide variation in programme configurati

Abstract:

Focussing on the Patterson Orogen. This proposal seeks to apply an integrated basin study approach combining interpretation of multiple regional data sets (e.g. seismic, well, gravity, magnetics) with numerical to investigate multi-scale (lithospheric and crustal), multi-stage deformation processes providing insight into the link between basement and basin evolution, and subsequent mineralization processes within a series of key Western Australian basins. This is the first systematic study of basement–basin–mineralization development completed in WA, and possibly elsewhere. The results of this

Abstract:

Despite its relatively temperate climate and stable geography, natural hazards present multiple risks to human activity in the UK. These range from small-scale local occurrences, such as landslides, through regional incidents, such as flooding, to major high impact, low probability events, such as space weather. The impacts of such hazards can be wide-ranging but may include disruption to critical infrastructure and transport networks, detrimental effects on human welfare, and, in some cases, loss of life. This POSTbrief summarises the emergency planning for such hazards undertaken by Civil Co

Innovating to achieve impact at scale in ill-structured environments is a complex challenge, with numerous socio-techno-economic dimensions. Whether tailoring a product or service offering to meet the needs of a global customer base, forecasting the socio-economic implications of a new technology, or working to address a societal challenge in a low-to-middle income country, problems that encompass social, technical and/or economic uncertainty, significant variations in involved stakeholder characteristics, and even subtle differences across the focal environment, inevitably benefit from a holi

Abstract:

Parenting programs can improve experiences during the early years and generate long-term outcomes in variables such as employment, health, education, and salary. The need to scale up parenting programs has driven the implementation of interventions based on communication technologies and behavioral economics.

Abstract:

There is scarce evidence on whether and how assistance in humanitarian emergencies and conflict settings impacts household well-being and behaviour. Conducting rigorous impact evaluations in such settings poses multiple challenges in design and data collection. In SEEDS, we evaluate the impact of a complex large-scale multi-arm agricultural intervention on productivity, food security, and resilience in the context of an on-going humanitarian crisis in Syria. Specifically, we identify the causal impacts of agricultural asset transfers over various time horizons (the short-, medium-, and long-ru

Abstract:

This paper uses recent evidence from international early grade reading programs to provide guidance about how best to create appropriate targets and more effectively identify improved program outcomes. Recent results show that World Bank and US Agency for International Development–funded large-scale international education interventions in low- and middle–income countries tend to produce larger impacts than do interventions in the United States, as measured by effect sizes. However, these effect sizes rarely translate into large gains in mean oral reading fluency scores and are associated with
