Article Abstract
Objective: This study examined whether access to paid sick leave (PSL) for COVID-19 symptoms is associated with lower perceived risk, reduced job stress, and greater job satisfaction.
Methods: A cross-sectional survey of 1,643 in-home service workers was conducted (response rate: 83%). Path analysis assessed the effects of sick leave type (paid, unpaid, no access, unsure) on perceived risk, job stress, and satisfaction, controlling for demographics and occupation.
Results: Compared to workers with PSL, those with unpaid leave (β = 0.087) and no access (β = 0.080) reported higher perceived risk, indirectly associated with lower job satisfaction via increased job stress. Workers with no access (β = -0.060) and unsure access (β = -0.057) also showed a direct association with lower job satisfaction.
Conclusion: PSL access may support in-home service workers' mental health and job satisfaction.

Living with risk, then and now: A dual review of Cam Grey's Living with Risk in the Late Roman World and of current AI-assisted book reviewing.
Risk Anal
September 2025
Edward J. Bloustein School, Rutgers University, New Brunswick, New Jersey, USA.
This AI-assisted review article offers a dual review: a book review of Living with Risk in the Late Roman World by Cam Grey, and a critical review of the current potential of large language models (LLMs), specifically ChatGPT's DeepResearch mode, to assist in thoughtful and scholarly book reviewing within risk science. Grey's book presents an innovative reconstruction of how communities in the late Roman Empire perceived and adapted to chronic environmental and societal risks, emphasizing spatial variability, cultural interpretation, and the normalization of uncertainty. Drawing on commentary from a human reviewer and a parallel AI-assisted analysis, we compare the distinct strengths and limitations of each approach.

Relationship between anxiety and tinnitus development in a rat model.

Tinnitus, the auditory perception of sound without an external environmental stimulus, affects 15% of the human population and is associated with hearing loss. Interestingly, anxiety may be a significant risk factor in tinnitus pathophysiology potentially due to underlying common neural circuits of the auditory and limbic systems. The current study aimed to investigate the effects of stress-induced anxiety on tinnitus development in a rat model.

Background: Neck pain and headaches are highly prevalent, often presenting a challenge for physiotherapists when considering differential diagnoses. For guidance, the International Federation of Manual and Musculoskeletal Physical Therapists (IFOMPT) created the International IFOMPT Cervical Framework. Its purpose is to improve clinical reasoning through various functional objectives and design principles.
