The role of psychosocial factors in mediating the treatment response of epidural steroid injections for low back pain with or without lumbosacral radiculopathy: A scoping review. by Meredith Stensland, Donald McGeary, Caleigh Covell, Elizabeth Fitzgerald, Mahsa Mojallal, Selena Lugosi, Luke Lehman, Zachary McCormick, Paul Nabity

“…The other 41 (80%) included no analyses examining ESI response as a function of psychosocial variables. Based on the studies that included analysis by psychosocial variables, poor psychosocial functioning appears to be associated with inferior treatments outcomes following ESI for back pain with or without lumbosacral radiculopathy. …”

Raising Awareness of Acute Kidney Injury: Unfolding the Truth by Aida Lydia

“…Some studies have reported that AKI increases susceptibility to infection, doubles the rate of respiratory failure and impairs cardiac function. Considering the substantial impacts of AKI in ICU patients, early implementation of preventive measures should be an essential program which consists of developing AKI risk stratification in the ICU and encouraging the use of novel AKI biomarkers (TIMP-2, IGFBP-7, Cystatin C, IL-18,  KIM-1 and NGAL) as well as other risk stratification tools (clinical risk prediction scores, computer algorithms, furosemide stress test). …”

Hard forest edges act as conduits, not filters, for bats by Matina C. Kalcounis‐Rueppell, Kim M. Briones, Jessica A. Homyack, Radmila Petric, Matthew M. Marshall, Darren A. Miller

“…ABSTRACT High levels of bat activity have been reported at forest edges worldwide, but few studies have examined the ecological function of edges as a linear landscape feature. Patterns of association of bats at edges between old and young forest stands (hard edges) could be a result of edges acting as either a semi‐permeable barrier or a filter to movement into the forest between different‐aged forest stands for bats (or their insect prey), causing an accumulation of bat activity along the edge. …”
