A magnetically actuated, optically sensed tensile testing method for mechanical characterization of soft biological tissues.
Mechanical properties of soft biological tissues play a critical role in physiology and disease, affecting cell behavior and fate decisions and contributing to tissue development, maintenance, and repair. Limitations of existing...
The afterlife of Laurence Sterne (1713-1768)
This paper aims to highlight the practice of body snatching from graves in the 1700s for the purpose of providing corpses for anatomical dissection, and for stocking anatomy museums. To do this, we examine the exhumation and...

Association Between Risk-of-Bias Assessments and Results of Randomized Trials in Cochrane Reviews
Jelena Savovic, Rebecca M Turner, David Mawdsley, Hayley E Jones, Rebecca Beynon, Julian PT Higgins, Jonathan AC Sterne
Oct 10, 2018
Flaws in the design of randomized trials may bias intervention effect estimates and increase between-trial heterogeneity. Empirical evidence suggests that these problems are greatest for subjectively assessed outcomes. For the...
