assessing metacognitive awareness and learning strategies as positive predictors in promoting l2 learners’ reading comprehension

the purpose of this thesis was to investigate how differently metacognitive, cognitive, and social/affective strategies affect l2 learners’ reading comprehension. to this end, the study employed a quasi-experimental design with a placement test as a proficiency test to find the homogeneity of groups. three classes were randomly selected as the experimental groups (n =90), and each class was tau...

Fracture healing and NSAIDs.

Evidence • Adults—2 RCTs (N = 140) of predominantly middle-aged women with Colles fractures randomized to flurbiprofen (14 days)1 or piroxicam (20 mg/d for 8 weeks)2 versus placebo: -No difference in recovery time, physiotherapy needs, malunion or nonunion,1 functional recovery, or healing.2 -Superior pain relief with NSAIDs (both trial arms allowed acetaminophen if required). -Limitations: abo...

Strategies for reducing inflammation and promoting bone repair in arthritis.

Chronic forms of arthritis encompass many joint inflammatory disorders, including rheumatoid arthritis (RA), an autoimmune inflammatory disease, and osteoarthritis (OA), typically a 'wear and tear' condition that is now known to also have an inflammatory etiology. The impact of inflammation in the disease prognosis and joint degradation due to impaired repair mechanisms has long been recognized...
