Vascular Rings as a Cause of Respiratory Difficulties
Background: Vascular rings are rare congenital developmental anomalies of the cardiovascular system that present with variable respiratory and gastrointestinal symptoms often refractory to what is considered a standard treatment. The aim of our study was to describe the clinical...

How Top-Down Are We? Reconsidering the Gap Between Occupational Therapy's Identity and Practice
Occupational therapy has spent more than a century defining occupation as its professional core. Yet studies across countries and settings show a recurring gap. Therapists value occupation-centered practice while often relying on impairment-focused assessment and intervention. Th...

Anogenital distance in adult women: examining a new biomarker in gynaecology
Anogenital distance (AGD) is proposed as a marker of the prenatal hormonal environment and reportedly differs in women with endometriosis, polycystic ovary syndrome and impaired fertility. Before clinical use, its normal range, determinants and measurement reproducibility must be...
