The link between neurological diseases and fractures is recognized in literature. However, the fact that spontaneous fractures or fractures without obvious trauma may be the first sign of an underlying neurological disease, such as inaugural nocturnal epileptic seizures or abnormal movement disorders during sleep, is much less so.

Unlabelled: Among individuals aged ≥ 40 years old, we found that after controlling for age, sex, FMI, and tissue thickness, an increase of 1kg/m of ALMI is associated with an increase in TBS of 0.058, which is approximately half of one population standard deviation, or 4.7% of the average value for TBS.

Background: Remote services (in which the patient and staff member are not physically colocated) and digital services (in which a patient encounter is digitally mediated in some way) were introduced extensively when the COVID-19 pandemic began in 2020. We undertook a longitudinal qualitative study of the introduction, embedding, evolution and abandonment of remote and digital innovations in United Kingdom general practice. This synoptic paper summarises study design, methods, key findings, outputs and impacts to date.

Insect silk is a naturally occurring protein that forms semicrystalline threads when exposed to air. The Asian weaver ant, Oecophylla smaragdina (Formicidae: Hymenoptera), frequently uses silks for leaf weaving in nest construction to maintain its integrity and durability. The silk imparts resilience and durability to the nests, preventing fracturing or breaking during many natural disasters, particularly heavy rainfall and strong winds.
