Thermodynamic properties of non-singular Hayward black hole through the lens of minimal gravitational decoupling by Tayyab Naseer, Jackson Levi Said, M. Sharif, Abdel-Haleem Abdel-Aty

“…Abstract In this article, we formulate three different solutions by extending the regular Hayward black hole in the background of gravitational decoupling, a well-known approach to extend the existing solutions to the more generalized domain. To do this, we consider a seed perfect fluid spherical source and add an extra matter content in the Einstein’s field equations. …”

Clinical and cost-effectiveness of first contact physiotherapy for musculoskeletal disorders in primary care: the FRONTIER, mixed method realist evaluation by Nicola E Walsh, Alice Berry, Serena Halls, Rachel Thomas, Hannah Stott, Cathy Liddiard, Zoe Anchors, Fiona Cramp, Margaret E Cupples, Peter Williams, Heather Gage, Dan Jackson, Paula Kersten, Dave Foster, Justin Jagosh

“…When we looked at the effectiveness of first-contact physiotherapy compared with general practitioner-led approaches, we found that it did not matter whether the patient consulted a general practitioner or a first-contact physiotherapist, they would all achieve the same outcome after 6 months, but when we looked at data at 3 months, a greater proportion of patients who saw first-contact physiotherapists seemed to improve more quickly than if they saw a general practitioner and, in some cases, had fewer days off work. …”
