Abstract:

The outbreak of Covid-19 pandemic highlighted the existence of a hospital bed shortage in Italy, as a result of a longstanding trend. The article analyses this process by an international comparison with other Western European countries, highlighting the intensity of hospital bed reduction in Italy, as a fundamental component of NHS rationalisation. Although it was based on solid grounds, international data suggest that hospital bed reduction was probably excessive, depriving the NHS of organisational slack. Moreover, de-hospitalisation would have been matched with a stronger development of primary and community care. The relative shortage of these services, along with the lack of integrated networks between hospital and non-hospital care, explains many difficulties experienced by hospitals in tackling Covid patients. Beyond investments in health care, these elements call to re-think the organisation of health care provision at local level, questioning the purchaser-provider split.

Abstract:

A primary aim of this study is its attempt to uncover a prehistoric layer of cereal grain (barley) mythology and ritual that may have backgrounded the Beowulf-poem. Toward this end, the poem and the mythological figures of Byggvir, Beyla, Scef ‘sheaf’ and Scyld ‘shield’ are interpreted in terms of a conceivable ritual context. Moreover, cereal deities, their ritualized veneration and the possible associations between them are referenced to the scourge of ergotism that once threatened much of Europe. The scope of Beowulf as not only an heroic epic but as also a cultural repository is thereby amplified.

Abstract:

As a means to assess pollinator efficiency, the number of pollen grains deposited by honey bees (Apis mellifera L.) and bumble bees (Bombus impatiens Cresson) after single visits to pistillate watermelon [Citrullus lanatus (Thunb.) Matsum. & Nakai] flowers was compared. Pistillate flowers were enclosed in nylon bags prior to anthesis, and were then exposed to single visits by each bee species (RCBD: 10 flowers per bee species per replicate; 4 replicates). Pollen grains were removed from stigmata immdiately after bee visitation by use of a glycerin jelly-gelatin mixture that was mounted onto microscope slides. Light microscopy was used to count the number of pollen grains per slide. Bumble bees deposited significantly more pollen grains than did honey bees (P < 0.05). After single bee visits to flowers, bumble bees deposited an average of 481 pollen grains, while honey bees deposited an average of 119 pollen grains. Although multiple bee visits are usually required to set watermelon fruit, this work demonstrates that bumble bees are more-efficient pollinators of watermelon at the single visit level than are honey bees.

Abstract:

For the last two years the author of this study was giving educations for adolescents and adults about bees and beekeeping in Lithuania. It was noticed that despite the lack of general knowledge about bees, people are keen on improving their comprehension about social insects. However, starting from general educational programs for preschools and primary schools there was barely information about social insects. That was a reason for further analysis of how effective children can learn from integrated educational activities organised at school. The object of the study was preschool and primary school students from one school in Vilnius, Lithuania. The aim of this study was to analyse the feedback and questionnaires that were filled with preschool and primary school students before and after the education. Then to measure the impact of this education on students' knowledge, skills and attitudes. This study could help teachers to find more ideas for social insects topic in primary school. Moreover, it was revealed what are the most common misconceptions about bees and beekeeping so it could be used to avoid possible mistakes in pupil learning. All in all, according to student reviews after education about bees and beekeeping, honey bees became more appreciable insect that was not before. And this is a little step for growing love for nature in the little human‘s heart. Keywords: educational activity, bees, honeybees, beekeeping, effectiveness, social insects, beekeeping and honey bees misconceptions.

Abstract:

Evidence for the antiquity and importance of microbial pathogens as selective agents is found in the proliferation of antimicrobial defences throughout the animal kingdom. Social insects, typified by crowding and often by low genetic variation, have high probabilities of disease transmission and eusocial Hymenoptera may be particularly vulnerable because of haplodiploidy. Mechanisms they employ to reduce the risk of disease include antimicrobial secretions which are particularly important primary barriers to infection. However, until now, whether or not there is selection for stronger antimicrobial secretions when the risk of disease increases because of sociality has not been tested. Here, we present evidence that the production of progressively stronger antimicrobial compounds was critical to the evolution of sociality in bees. We found that increases in group size and genetic relatedness were strongly correlated with increasing antimicrobial strength. The antimicrobials of even the most primitive semi-social species were an order of magnitude stronger that those of solitary species, suggesting a point of no return, beyond which disease control was essential. Our results suggest that selection by microbial pathogens was critical to the evolution of sociality and required the production of strong, front-line antimicrobial defences.

Abstract:

Microconstituents (MCs) have become an emerging concern to scientists and researchers. Due to the development of analytical technology, it is now possible to study MCs at ηg/L to μg/L levels. Wastewater treatment plants (WWTPs) are the major point source for MCs entering the environment based on the literature. WWTPs are known to be unable to remove many MCs to a safe level. In order to fully understand the fate of MCs in WWTPs and to further improve the design of WWTPs in terms of MC removal, it is necessary to examine removal mechanisms such as sorption and biodegradation in WWTPs. Three MCs, bisphenol A (BPA), 17-α-ethinylestradiol (EE2) and triclosan (TCS), were chosen for this study. They are chemicals reported to be hydrophobic and have low vapor pressure, which makes sorption a highly potential removal mechanism. Primary sludge and activated sludge (AS) were used to perform sorption kinetics and isotherm experiments for BPA, EE2 and TCS. Primary sludge was collected from local WWTPs, and AS was generated from a lab-scale continuous flow bioreactor system maintained at solids retention times of 15, 10 and 5 d and hydraulic retention time (HRT) of 6 h. Alum was added to synthetic wastewater influent at concentrations typically used for phosphorus removal at some plants. Alum has the potential to change sludge structure and influence the sorption process. A comparison was made with AS as the adsorbent with and without alum addition to the AS to study the influence of alum on the sorption processes. The selected MCs were found to reach sorption equilibrium with primary sludge within 7 h. A pseudo second-order kinetic model was an excellent fit to describe the sorption processes of selected MCs. The solids-liquid partitioning coefficient (Kd) was determined for the three chosen MCs. The Kd values found for primary sludge and AS are very close. The Kd for MCs sorbed to AS in this study were compared with the Kd for AS without alum addition. Although alum addition showed no influence on effluent soluble chemical oxygen demand, it decreases the Kd for BPA and EE2 sorbed to AS. In contrast, a much higher Kd for TCS was observed for AS with alum addition. Judging from the R2 values, the linear sorption model is not suitable for some of the isotherms. Langmuir and Freundlich sorption isotherms were further used to fit the experimental data by applying linear regression and nonlinear regression approaches. The Freundlich isotherm was found to be the most suitable model to describe the experiment data.

Abstract:

This study addressed the question of whether or not information skills actually were being taught in context with curriculum units of study. The three questions it attempted to answer were: 1. To what extent have primary teachers and teacher-librarians integrated information skills into primary curriculum subjects in British Columbia? 2. Have teacher-librarian qualifications and/or hours of employment in a school library resource centre influenced the integration process? 3. Has the handbook. Primary Library Activities facilitated the integration of information skills into primary curricula? Data collection included both a written questionnaire and oral telephone interviews. The sample for the study was purchasers of Primary Library Activities. in the years 1984 and 1983. The responses to each question were tabulated and an analysis of variance was conducted to compare the variables in question two with other data. The researcher found that: - a majority of educators stated they were teaching information skills by integration. - there was no relationship between the courses a teacher-librarian had completed and/or the hours he/she was employed in a school library resource centre and integration. - a considerable difference was observable in the amount of flexible scheduling between schools located in rural areas and those located in cities. - Primary Library Activities, had been helpful in integrating information skills. A limitation in this study was the small sample. The results of the study can be viewed as an indication only and need to be replicated by further research.

Abstract:

Polypharmacy, the use of five or more medications, is a public health epidemic that leads to high health care utilization and costs in older adults globally. Health care organizations and professionals have used interdisciplinary collaboration (IC) interventions to reduce polypharmacy and health care costs with little benefit. There is limited research and integration of IC with an evidence-based practice (EBP) guideline among primary care providers (PCPs) in the primary care setting. The aims of this Doctor of Nursing Practice (DNP) project were to conduct a knowledge and needs assessment via Qualtrics survey to identify PCPs’ current knowledge, practices, and perceptions regarding IC and the American Geriatrics Society (AGS) Beers Criteria on reducing older adult polypharmacy in an urban primary care setting; and to assess PCPs’ interest in participating in IC with a pharmacist using the AGS Beers Criteria. The responses obtained from the Qualtrics survey revealed PCPs were comfortable in communicating to older adults about polypharmacy; however, PCPs with longer practice experiences displayed misconceptions due to lack of familiarity and interest in participating in IC using the AGS Beers Criteria. Overall, 70% of PCPs felt comfortable about participating in IC alone, 50% of PCPs were familiar with IC, and 60% of PCPs used the AGS Beers Criteria. Even though 60% of PCPs felt comfortable about participating in IC based on AGS Beers Criteria with a pharmacist, only 50% of PCPs were interested in participating IC with a pharmacist using AGS Beers Criteria. Barriers and recommendations are discussed further in this DNP Project paper.

Abstract:

Few studies have focused on the perspectives of children with 'learning difficulty' labels in the UK. This exploratory study aimed to investigate the experience of children in a mainstream primary school in London who had been identified as having 'learning difficulties'. Six children were observed in their school environment, interviewed using props and pictures, and invited to take photos of significant features of their daily lives. Data were transcribed and analysed thematically from a critical realist standpoint. The children in the study were mostly not remarkable from other children, either in their appearance or behaviour, or in their experiences and views. They had a variety of understandings and feelings about the additional support they received, but largely seemed fairly neutral about it and did not seem to feel particularly different from their peers. In contrast with much of the literature, stories of stigma and bullying were not found. This seemed to reflect an inclusive school culture. Some of the children were however noticeably socially isolated from their peers. Teaching assistants played a key role in several children's lives, and this was largely positive, although their role sometimes constrained opportunities for peer interactions and autonomy. Although the sample was not representative of children with 'learning difficulties', the findings point to the possibility that schools can create an environment whereby children with different learning abilities or styles do not experience 'impairment' (difficulties with learning) or 'disability' (barriers to opportunities). This may only apply to children with milder differences from supportive families, but is consistent with theory that both impairment and disability are socially constructed. Further research is needed into how schools can create such an environment, as well as into barriers to friendships for children with 'learning difficulty' labels.

Abstract:

Despite existing mad cow disease surveillance efforts in the United States, in place since the 1980s, a cow that tested positive for mad cow disease was granted entrance into the U.S. in December, 2003. The cow that tested positive, according to witnesses, displayed no symptoms that are synonymous with advanced bovine spongiform encephalopathy, BSE. This occurrence had detrimental effects on the U.S. beef export market, as many countries banned American beef. Estimates of the damage inflicted reach into the billions of dollars. BSE in the U.S. has the potential of causing damages in other aspects as well. Aside from the fact that BSE is a public health issue, it has caused political rifts between nations, particularly between Canada and the U.S. It can undermine confidence in the USDA and confidence in the governments ability to handle emergencies. BSE can imperil American good that contain beef or beef products. Finally, it can undermine trust in scientists to provide useful guidance. The subtle changes in U.S. BSE surveillance efforts in the 1980’s were greatly surpassed by the changes that were made when a BSE-positive cow was discovered in Washington State in 2003. However, there remains room for much needed improvement in U.S. BSE surveillance efforts. These changes include: increased testing to include all cows slaughtered in the U.S. and all imported beef products, a nationwide animal tracking program, increased proficiency in training of inspectors, and the implementation of strict rules governing the ingredients of animal feed. The implementation of regulations based on economics instead of public health concerns has the potential to leave loopholes in regulations that the BSE agent might exploit. By enacting the recommendations made in this thesis, the U.S. will greatly increased its' odds of stopping the entrance and proliferation of BSE within its’ borders.

This dissertation was designed to evaluate antimicrobial, quality, and shelf life effects of controlled phase carbon dioxide (CPCO2) on beef trimmings destined for ground beef. Critical parameters included pressure, temperature, exposure times, modified atmosphere conditions, and days of simulated retail display. 1500 psi CPCO2 for 15 min achieved 0.83, 0.96, 1.00, and 1.06 log reductions for Total Plate Count (TPC), Generic E. coli (GEC), E. coli O157:H7 (O157), and Salmonella spp. (SS), respectively. Bacterial reductions in ground beef and beef trimmings were similar (P≥0.05). CIE L*, a*, and b* values in raw patties showed no differences (P≥0.05) immediately after CPCO2 application on beef trimmings. Nevertheless, significant (P<0.05) interactions were found in pressure by packaging for L*, in pressure by packaging by days of simulated retail display for a*, and in packaging by days of simulated retail display for b* scores. Nevertheless, after 5 days of simulated retail display, L*, a*, and reflectance (630/580nm) ratios were similar for all treatments (P≥0.05), and b* scores were most acceptable with 1500 CPCO2 (P≥0.05), regardless of the packaging conditions. After 5 days of display, cooked patties showed similar (P≥0.05) values for crude protein (%CP) and crude fat (%CF), the extent of lipid oxidation (TBARS), was higher (P0.05) in aerobic trays than flushed packages with 100% CO2. Ground beef patties manufactured from beef trimmings treated with CPCO2scored higher values for tenderness (P0.05) than other treatments. In addition, no differences (P0.05) for juiciness, beef flavor intensity, or off flavor intensity were found between non-treated and the 1500 psi CPCO2 treated patties. Microbial control of spoilage organisms and foodborne pathogens in ground beef patties with CPCO2 application in beef trimmings was effective (0.6 to 1.2 logs). Lethality levels are comparable to other intervention strategies. Discoloration of beef trimmings after CPCO2 application may not be a concern for grinding purposes. Further packaging with 100% CO2 is viable for controlling spoilage and pathogenic microorganisms after packaging and during refrigerated storage, although discoloration of raw ground beef patties packaged with 100% CO2 may be a concern for product marketing.

The present study comprises two issues related to the Brazilian scenario: the absence of educational activities in prisons and the new strategy of Brazilian authorities in fighting against organized crime, which in based on the impoverishment of criminal activity, creating a buildup situation in police and judicial deposits of goods constricted in criminal proceedings. The main goal of this work is demonstrating that educational activities in prisons can be financed by the amounts obtained by selling the above mentioned assets.
O presente trabalho aborda duas questões atuais do cenário brasileiro, quais sejam:a falta de atividades educacionais nos presídios e a nova postura das autoridades brasileiras no combate ao crime organizado, a qual baseia-se na descapitalização da atividade criminosa, o que gera um acúmulo nos depósitos policiais e judiciais de bens constritos em procedimentos penais. O objetivo do trabalho é demonstrar que as atividades educacionais nos presídios podem ser financiadas pelo valor obtido com a alienação antecipada dos bens supramencionados.

Abstract:

AbstractIn the previous chapter, it has been shown that the regularization approach is particularly useful when information contained in the data is not sufficient to obtain a precise estimate of the unknown parameter vector and standard methods, such as least squares, yield poor solutions. The fact itself that an estimate is regarded as poor suggests the existence of some form of prior knowledge on the degree of acceptability of candidate solutions. It is this knowledge that guides the choice of the regularization penalty that is added as a corrective term to the usual sum of squared residuals. In the previous chapters, this design process has been described in a deterministic setting where only the measurement noises are random. In this chapter, we will see that an alternative formalization of prior information is obtained if a subjective/Bayesian estimation paradigm is adopted. The major difference is that the parameters, rather than being regarded as deterministic, are now treated as a random vector. This stochastic setting permits the definition of new powerful tools for both priors selection, e.g., through the maximum entropy principle, and for regularization parameters tuning, e.g., through the empirical Bayes approach and its connection with the concept of equivalent degrees of freedom.

Abstract:

By means of a comparative analysis of the ‘Dutch case’ with the Saintonge in South-West France and Bohuslän in South-West Sweden, this paper analyses the rise and decline of maritime services clusters in preindustrial Europe. The leading question for this comparative analysis is: Was the ‘Dutch case’ exceptional or can similar developments be recognised in other parts of Europe as well? A survey of the regional economic origins of communities of maritime transporters is combined with analyses of their operations and institutions. Relying on primary sources, the paper addresses the contribution of a great many ‘anonymous’ people, that literally connected the ‘nodes’ in international maritime trade networks, but whose contribution to the preindustrial European economy has been assumed a priori rather than thoroughly investigated.

Abstract:

AbstractLittle is known about the long-term effects of CAR-T cell therapy. Although medium-term complications, such as cytopenia and hypogammaglobulinaemia, may persist and require ongoing treatment, there do not appear to be other durable toxicities specific to this new immunotherapeutic class (Fried et al. 2019; Cordeiro et al. 2020; Cappell et al. 2020). However, to date, CAR-T therapy has been evaluated in patients with multiple relapsed diseases following several lines of treatment, including allogeneic stem cell transplantation, making it difficult to identify which effects may be directly attributable to this novel treatment. Nonetheless, as the use of CAR-T cell therapy increases, structured models for survivorship care will need to be established. The factors that will affect care requirements include the primary malignancy, prior treatment, the specific CAR-T therapy and patient age and frailty.

Abstract:

This chapter summarizes the works on Sumatran bees from three research periods: between 1980-1987 on several locations in West Sumatra, 1990 at Kerinci Seblat National Park, and between 2019-2020 at some beekeepers in West Sumatra. In total, there were 27 stingless bee species, one stingless bee forma (Tetragonula minangkabau forma darek), and three honey bee species identified. Most of these stingless bee and honey bee species inhabit the Sumatran lowland primary forest. There were four patterns of species distribution observed in this study: rare species that were confined to primary forest, moderate or abundant species that were bound to primary forest, species that inhabited both primary and secondary forest, and species that adapt to disturbed areas. Apis andreniformis, A. dorsata, A. cerana indica, Heterotrigona itama, Sundatrigona moorei, Tetragonula fuscobaltealta, T. drescheri, T. laeviceps, and T. minangkabau were example of adaptive species.

Abstract:

Abstract We present an experimental and numerical investigation of displacements of viscoplastic fluids in an eccentric, horizontal annulus with a cutting bed left in the well. This problem is of interest to both industrial and academic viewpoints. Firstly, the experiment provides a simplified, analogous effect to a cuttings bed in industrial situations. Secondly, while successful and failed displacements of viscoplastic fluids with various eccentricities have been well documented in the literature, displacements with a blockage in the annular geometry have not been experimentally studied before. We carry out the experiments with a pump driven flow loop with a 7.5m annular test section, with a borosilicate glass outer pipe and stainless steel inner pipe. To model the cutting bed, a solid insert is attached to the narrow side of the annulus. Carbopol solutions, widely known as model yield-stress fluids, are displaced from the blocked annulus. Our protocol consists of direct visualization of the interface between the displaced and displacing fluids with a high-speed camera and UV-lighting setup, along with pressure and flow rate measurements. We compare our experimental data and images with 3D numerical simulations, using a Volume of Fluid method to capture the interface between the fluids. The 3D model provides us with a more detailed analysis of the concentration and velocity profiles, along with comparisons to snapshots of the experimental displacements. The dynamics of the displacement of two fluids in a horizontal circular annulus is governed by buoyancy, eccentricity and the rheology of the fluids. A positive density difference promotes slumping of the displacing fluid towards the bottom of the annulus. Nevertheless, high eccentricity values (e = 1-standoff) are common due to the weight of the casing pulling downwards, opposing the buoyancy force. Finally, the rheology of the fluids is relevant to determine the presence of un-displaced layers of mud, e.g. at the walls. The same competition described above holds true in the annulus with cutting beds. The blockage incorporates an additional way of altering the velocity field around the annulus. Here we show that the blockage can affect the mud removal in the annular space of the well.

Abstract:

Overview Skin cancer prevention is a component of the new Cancer Plan 2022–27, which guides the work of the Cancer Institute NSW. To lessen the impact of skin cancer on the community, the Cancer Institute NSW works closely with the NSW Skin Cancer Prevention Advisory Committee, comprising governmental and non-governmental organisation representatives, to develop and implement the NSW Skin Cancer Prevention Strategy. Primary Health Networks and primary care providers are seen as important stakeholders in this work. To guide improvements in skin cancer prevention and inform the development of the next NSW Skin Cancer Prevention Strategy, an up-to-date review of the evidence on the effectiveness and feasibility of skin cancer prevention activities in primary care is required. A research team led by the Daffodil Centre, a joint venture between the University of Sydney and Cancer Council NSW, was contracted to undertake an Evidence Check review to address the questions below. Evidence Check questions This Evidence Check aimed to address the following questions: Question 1: What skin cancer primary prevention activities can be effectively administered in primary care settings? As part of this, identify the key components of such messages, strategies, programs or initiatives that have been effectively implemented and their feasibility in the NSW/Australian context. Question 2: What are the main barriers and enablers for primary care providers in delivering skin cancer primary prevention activities within their setting? Summary of methods The research team conducted a detailed analysis of the published and grey literature, based on a comprehensive search. We developed the search strategy in consultation with a medical librarian at the University of Sydney and the Cancer Institute NSW team, and implemented it across the databases Embase, MEDLINE, PsycInfo, Scopus, Cochrane Central and CINAHL. Results were exported and uploaded to Covidence for screening and further selection. The search strategy was designed according to the SPIDER tool for Qualitative and Mixed-Methods Evidence Synthesis, which is a systematic strategy for searching qualitative and mixed-methods research studies. The SPIDER tool facilitates rigour in research by defining key elements of non-quantitative research questions. We included peer-reviewed and grey literature that included skin cancer primary prevention strategies/ interventions/ techniques/ programs within primary care settings, e.g. involving general practitioners and primary care nurses. The literature was limited to publications since 2014, and for studies or programs conducted in Australia, the UK, New Zealand, Canada, Ireland, Western Europe and Scandinavia. We also included relevant systematic reviews and evidence syntheses based on a range of international evidence where also relevant to the Australian context. To address Question 1, about the effectiveness of skin cancer prevention activities in primary care settings, we summarised findings from the Evidence Check according to different skin cancer prevention activities. To address Question 2, about the barriers and enablers of skin cancer prevention activities in primary care settings, we summarised findings according to the Consolidated Framework for Implementation Research (CFIR). The CFIR is a framework for identifying important implementation considerations for novel interventions in healthcare settings and provides a practical guide for systematically assessing potential barriers and facilitators in preparation for implementing a new activity or program. We assessed study quality using the National Health and Medical Research Council (NHMRC) levels of evidence. Key findings We identified 25 peer-reviewed journal articles that met the eligibility criteria and we included these in the Evidence Check. Eight of the studies were conducted in Australia, six in the UK, and the others elsewhere (mainly other European countries). In addition, the grey literature search identified four relevant guidelines, 12 education/training resources, two Cancer Care pathways, two position statements, three reports and five other resources that we included in the Evidence Check. Question 1 (related to effectiveness) We categorised the studies into different types of skin cancer prevention activities: behavioural counselling (n=3); risk assessment and delivering risk-tailored information (n=10); new technologies for early detection and accompanying prevention advice (n=4); and education and training programs for general practitioners (GPs) and primary care nurses regarding skin cancer prevention (n=3). There was good evidence that behavioural counselling interventions can result in a small improvement in sun protection behaviours among adults with fair skin types (defined as ivory or pale skin, light hair and eye colour, freckles, or those who sunburn easily), which would include the majority of Australians. It was found that clinicians play an important role in counselling patients about sun-protective behaviours, and recommended tailoring messages to the age and demographics of target groups (e.g. high-risk groups) to have maximal influence on behaviours. Several web-based melanoma risk prediction tools are now available in Australia, mainly designed for health professionals to identify patients’ risk of a new or subsequent primary melanoma and guide discussions with patients about primary prevention and early detection. Intervention studies have demonstrated that use of these melanoma risk prediction tools is feasible and acceptable to participants in primary care settings, and there is some evidence, including from Australian studies, that using these risk prediction tools to tailor primary prevention and early detection messages can improve sun-related behaviours. Some studies examined novel technologies, such as apps, to support early detection through skin examinations, including a very limited focus on the provision of preventive advice. These novel technologies are still largely in the research domain rather than recommended for routine use but provide a potential future opportunity to incorporate more primary prevention tailored advice. There are a number of online short courses available for primary healthcare professionals specifically focusing on skin cancer prevention. Most education and training programs for GPs and primary care nurses in the field of skin cancer focus on treatment and early detection, though some programs have specifically incorporated primary prevention education and training. A notable example is the Dermoscopy for Victorian General Practice Program, in which 93% of participating GPs reported that they had increased preventive information provided to high-risk patients and during skin examinations. Question 2 (related to barriers and enablers) Key enablers of performing skin cancer prevention activities in primary care settings included: • Easy access and availability of guidelines and point-of-care tools and resources • A fit with existing workflows and systems, so there is minimal disruption to flow of care • Easy-to-understand patient information • Using the waiting room for collection of risk assessment information on an electronic device such as an iPad/tablet where possible • Pairing with early detection activities • Sharing of successful programs across jurisdictions. Key barriers to performing skin cancer prevention activities in primary care settings included: • Unclear requirements and lack of confidence (self-efficacy) about prevention counselling • Limited availability of GP services especially in regional and remote areas • Competing demands, low priority, lack of time • Lack of incentives.

Full text

Abstract:

Bombus terrestris constitute important pollinators of greenhouse crops. In Israel the species utilized is, whose colonies are reared commercially. This is a primitively social species with a particular colony development. It encompasses two social phases: a eusocial phase in which the queen dominates reproduction, and a competition phase in which workers compete with the queen for the parentage of males. These workers are distinguished by accelerated ovarian development, high production of JH, and elevated levels of dopamine in the brain. Queen-worker conflict is also manifested in overt aggression among all members of the nest. High aggression is correlated with dominance status of the bees and is also correlated with octopamine levels in the brain. After verifying that JH III is the only JH produced by the bees and validating the assay for its measurements (RCA & RIA), we used JH as an indicator of worker reproduction. Queens taken from colonies both before and after the competition phase were equally effective in inhibiting worker reproduction. Moreover, there is only a narrow window, around the competition point, in which workers may have the opportunity to initiate reproduction. Before that point they are inhibited by the dominant queen, while after that point both the queen and those workers with accelerated ovarian development exert strong inhibition on worker nest mates. Thus, "queen dominance deterioration" is not the primary cause in eliciting the queen-worker conflict. Queens convey their presence by means of a chemical signal that is extractable in organic solvent and that is normally spread on the cuticle. Total body extract and body washes, applied on dead virgin queens, were able to inhibit the release of JHin vitro in queenless workers. However, none of the prominent exocrine gland investigated mimicked this function. It is possible that the source of the putative pheromone is an unknown gland, or that it emanates from an assembly of glands. Chemical analyses of the prominent glands revealed a plethora of compounds the function of which should be further investigated. Understanding the social behavior of B. terrestris paves the way to facilitate colony manipulation and to adjust the colonies for specific pollination requirements.

Abstract:

Prescription opioid deaths have tripled since 1999, and currently opioid overdose kills 115 Americans per day on average (1). Prior to 2014, prescription opioids have been the primary driver of opioid-related mortality. In recent years, the United States has seen a steady decline in the rate of opioid prescription. At the same time, there has been a significant increase in the number of deaths attributed to non-prescription opioids such as heroin, illicitly manufactured fentanyl, and fentanyl analogues. In 2017, among 70,237 drug overdose deaths nationally, 47,600 (67.8%) involved opioids, with increases across age groups, racial/ethnic groups, and county urbanization levels in multiple states (2). The opioid epidemic is especially profound in Tennessee, which had the 3rd highest opioid prescription rate in the country in 2017 and an opioid-related death rate of 19.3 deaths per 100,000 persons, compared to the national average of 14.6 (3). This retrospective study analyzes autopsy data from West Tennessee Regional Forensic Center (WTRFC) from 2007 to 2017 to gain a better understanding of the effects of the opioid epidemic on West Tennessee and the surrounding areas. Data from opioid-related accidents and suicides were analyzed in order to identify trends in race, age, gender, location, types of opioids, and drug combinations involved in opioid-related deaths.

Full text

Abstract:

Demand for public hospital emergency departments’ services and care is increasing, placing considerable restraint on their performance and threatens patient safety. Many factors influence such demand including individual characteristics (e.g. perceptions, knowledge, values and norms), healthcare availability, affordability and accessibility, population aging, and internal health system factors (e.g patient flow, discharge process). To alleviate demand, many initiatives have been trialled or suggested, including early identification of at-risk patients, better management of chronic disease to reduce avoidable ED presentation, expanded capacity of front-line clinician to manage sub-acute and non-urgent care, improved hospital flow to reduce access block, and diversion to alternate site for care. However, none have had any major or sustained impact on the growth in ED demand. A major focus of the public discourse on ED demand has been the use and integration of primary healthcare and ED, based on the assumption that between 10%–25% of ED presentations are potentially avoidable if patients’ access to appropriate primary healthcare (PHC) services were enhanced. However, this requires not only improved access but also appropriateness in terms of the patients’ preference and PHC providers’ capacity to address the needs. What is not known at the moment is the extent of the potential for diversion of non-urgent ED patients to PHC and the cost-benefits of such policy and funding changes required, particularly in the Australian context. There is a need to better understand ED patients’ needs and capacity constraint so as to effect delivery of accessible, affordable, efficient and responsive services. Jennie Money Doug Morel
