Comprehensive Coverage

Artifact classification systems derived primarily from prehistoric archaeology are generally based on the material of manufacture. Such classification systems not only are not suited to historical archaeology, but actually retard the analysis and result in reports that are difficult to use for comparative purposes. The use of a classification based on the artifact function is suggested and several previous schemes are evaluated. The classification system advocated here comes closer than previous attempts to the goal of mutually exclusive categories and comprehensive coverage of artifacts from 19th and 20th century sites. Examples are presented for each of the categories in the system.

 Uncovering some of the United Kingdoms most fascinating historical sites, this interactive digital website puts on display one of the newest collections in Queen’s W.D. Jordan Special Collections Library.  Using geospatial location technology and a variety of digital humanities concepts, the project undertook the task of mapping over 700 architectural guidebooks from across the United Kingdom. A key driving factor in the creation of the site was the challenge of making collections more accessible to students; encouraging the use of the wide range of the primary source material. The website conjoins the large guidebook collection with literature found in the Schulich-Woolf rare book collection. Through a thorough investigation of the existing literature in the library, this platform connects the plethora 20th-century guidebooks with the many rare 18th, 19th, and 20th-century antiquity books featured in the Schulich-Woolf collection. Through an accessible platform, students are now able to view the guidebook collection, while being able to access key resources for further research into key pieces of British history and identity.

Upper Extremity Rehabilitation

The confusion between the termsopen kinetic chainandclosed kinetic chainbecomes even greater with application to the upper extremity. Upper extremity function is very difficult to define, due to the numerous shoulder positions and the great velocities with which the shoulder can move. Classifying exercises for rehabilitation of the upper extremity is very difficult due to the complexity of the joint. Many definitions and classification systems have been proposed; however, none of these entirely encompass rehabilitation of the upper extremity. Using previous classifications we have developed a Functional Classification System that is designed to serve as a template for upper extremity rehabilitation. This system has been designed to restore functional shoulder stability, which is dependent upon proper scapulothoracic and glenohumeral stability, and humeral control; all of these are in part mediated by neuromuscular mechanisms. The objective of our new Functional Classification System is to restore functional stability of the shoulder by reestablishing neuromuscular control for overhead activities.

This article aims to consider how Serbian scholars/historians approach to the study of Serbian women in the history of the independent Serbian state and the Serbian society in 1878–1918 at the current stage of the research (from the beginning of 1990th until 2017). This paper will give an overview of some of the main areas of historical studies considering Serbian women’s “being and life”. For example the historiography on history of “women’s question” including women’s movement and/or feminism will be considered as well as biographical research, the study of women’s position through the lens of the modernization process in Serbia in the 19th and 20th Century, Serbian women’s issues in gender studies and through the history of everyday and private life and family, the analysis of the perception of Serbian woman by outside observers including the study of the image of Serbian woman created/constructed by “others”.

Patient Profile

Abstract BACKGROUND Existing adult spinal deformity (ASD) classification systems are based on radiological parameters but management of ASD patients requires a holistic approach. A comprehensive clinically oriented patient profile and classification of ASD that can guide decision-making and correlate with patient outcomes is lacking. OBJECTIVE To perform a systematic review to determine the purpose, characteristic, and methodological quality of classification systems currently used in ASD. METHODS A systematic literature search was conducted in MEDLINE, EMBASE, CINAHL, and Web of Science for literature published between January 2000 and October 2018. From the included studies, list of classification systems, their methodological measurement properties, and correlation with treatment outcomes were analyzed. RESULTS Out of 4470 screened references, 163 were included, and 54 different classification systems for ASD were identified. The most commonly used was the Scoliosis Research Society-Schwab classification system. A total of 35 classifications were based on radiological parameters, and no correlation was found between any classification system levels with patient-related outcomes. Limited evidence of limited quality was available on methodological quality of the classification systems. For studies that reported the data, intraobserver and interobserver reliability were good (kappa = 0.8). CONCLUSION This systematic literature search revealed that current classification systems in clinical use neither include a comprehensive set of dimensions relevant to decision-making nor did they correlate with outcomes. A classification system comprising a core set of patient-related, radiological, and etiological characteristics relevant to the management of ASD is needed.
