AbstractA positive association between sugar-sweetened beverages (SSBs) and diabetes risk has been shown, with inconsistent evidence between artificially sweetened beverages (ASBs) and diabetes. Moreover, it is uncertain if physical activity can mitigate the negative effects of these beverages on diabetes development. Therefore, we aimed to evaluate the independent and joint associations between SSB or ASB consumption and physical activity on the risk of type 2 diabetes.

The fitness of SARS-CoV-2 Omicron subvariants was determined in human epithelial and continuous cells of the respiratory and gastrointestinal tracts. Competition experiments over 4 days were performed followed by quantification of variant ratios by reverse transcription-droplet digital PCR. These quantitative data were correlated with whole genome sequencing.

In collaboration with the Canadian Critical Care Trials Group (CCCTG), we designed VITdALIZE-KIDS as a pragmatic, phase III, multicenter, individual patient 1:1 randomized double-blind superiority RCT. Our protocol adheres to the Standard Protocol Items: Recommendations for Interventional Trials (SPIRIT) checklist (see Additional file 1). A summary of the protocol is provided in Table 1.

KeywordsDecision RuleEchocardiogramTransient Ischemic AttackStrokeINTRODUCTIONCardioembolic causes of transient ischemic attack (TIA)/stroke account for approximately one third of identifiable etiologies.1-3 The most common cardioembolic source is atrial fibrillation, which is usually identified by electrocardiogram (ECG), or cardiac monitoring. Other cardioembolic causes of TIA/minor stroke are less frequent and are typically suggested by abnormalities at echocardiography.

There is no established consensus for screening the spine in patients with shoulder pain. The aim of this study was to explore the role of the spine in shoulder pain and generate a set of recommendations for assessing the potential involvement of the spine in patients with shoulder pain. A modified Delphi study was conducted through use of an international shoulder physical therapist’s expert panel.
