Effects of music training on executive functions in preschool children aged 3–6 years: systematic review and meta-analysis by Yanan Lu, Lin Shi, Lin Shi, Ahmad Faudzi Musib

“…While numerous studies have found that music training has a favorable effect on children’s executive functions, there is a lack of a consistent perspective on this topic, particularly with regard to the dose–response relationship.MethodsSystematic searches were conducted of Web of Science, PubMed, Scopus, and China National Knowledge Infrastructure. A random-effects meta-analysis was used to compute standardized mean differences (SMD) and 95% confidence intervals (CI).ResultsIn all, 10 studies were included in the meta-analysis, in which children’s music training groups showed significantly improved inhibitory control (SMD = 0.38, 95% CI: 0.16–0.6), working memory (SMD = 0.35, 95% CI: 0.16–0.54), and cognitive flexibility (SMD = 0.23, 95% CI: 0.04–0.42) in comparison with control groups. …”

Phenomenological understanding of the contribution of bulk and grain boundary precipitates on strengthening in prolonged-aged Al-Zn-Mg-Cu aluminium alloys by Cheng-Ling Tai, Yu-Ning Chiu, Chu-Jen Chen, Shih-Kang Lin, Hsin-Chih Lin, R. Devesh Kumar Misra, Yo-Lun Yang, Chien-Nan Hsiao, Cheng-Si Tsao, Tsai-Fu Chung

“…Prolonged ageing led to a small decrease in tensile strength from 567 MPa to 526 MPa and minor increase in elongation from ∼11 % to ∼13 %. The new knowledge derived from the present study has the potential to transform the futuristic design and processing of next generation of aluminum alloys through tailoring of tensile strength and ductility, where the approach will be different from the conventional ageing process.…”

Web-based interventions for fear of cancer recurrence: A scoping review with a focus on suggestions for the development and evaluation of future interventions. by Solveiga Zibaite, Sheela Tripathee, Helen Moffat, Beatrix Elsberger, Sara Maclennan

“…While there is some evidence that web-based interventions can be as effective as face-to-face interventions, currently there is a dearth of systematic data about the ways in which the web-based modality specifically can enhance supportive care for FCR. Developing knowledge about effective web-based interventions has implications for cancer survivors as they can be presented with more accessible, low-cost and low-burden options for managing fear of cancer recurrence.…”
