Nonoptimal component placement of the human connectome supports variable brain dynamics (2022)
Journal Article

Neural systems are shaped by multiple constraints, balancing region communication with the cost of establishing and maintaining physical connections. It has been suggested that the lengths of neural projections be minimized, reducing their spatial an...

The Core Rehabilitation Outcome Set for Single-Sided Deafness (CROSSSD) study: International consensus on outcome measures for trials of interventions for adults with single-sided deafness (2022)
Journal Article

Background: Single-sided deafness (SSD) has functional, psychological, and social consequences. Interventions for adults with SSD include hearing aids and auditory implants. Benefits and harms (outcome domains) of these interventions are until now re...

Opt-in HIV testing in construction workplaces: an exploration of its suitability, using the socioecological framework (2022)
Journal Article

Background: Late diagnosis of HIV remains a challenge, despite improved testing and treatment. Testing is often targeted at high-risk groups; workplace events might normalise testing and allow access to a wider population. The construction workforce...

Time-limited self-sustaining rhythms and state transitions in brain networks (2022)
Journal Article

Resting-state networks usually show time-limited self-sustaining oscillatory patterns (TLSOPs) with the characteristic features of multiscaled rhythms and frequent switching between different rhythms, but the underlying mechanisms remain unclear. To... Read More about Time-limited self-sustaining rhythms and state transitions in brain networks.

A randomised controlled trial investigating the clinical and cost-effectiveness of Alpha-Stim AID cranial electrotherapy stimulation (CES) in patients seeking treatment for moderate severity depression in primary care (Alpha-Stim-D Trial) (2022)
Journal Article

Background: Major depression is the second leading cause of years lost to disability worldwide and is a leading contributor to suicide. However, first-line antidepressants are only fully effective for 33%, and only 40% of those offered psychological...
