This study examines longitudinal changes in cognitive functioning over the course of 2 years in participants of adult day care programs. Cognitive measures included the Brief Cognitive Rating Scale (BCRS) and the Mini-Mental State Examination (MMSE). Longitudinal data were available for five measurement points over 2 years for 82 participants (22 males and 60 females). Overall, results from this study suggest that there were significant cognitive declines on BCRS and MMSE, even after only 1 or 2 years in the study. The rates of impairment over the 2 years for BCRS and MMSE were highly correlated. Within each measure, the individual rates of decline were very heterogenous and were influenced by the presence, type, and prognosis of dementia. Participants with multi-infarct dementia had greater cognitive decline than did those with other types of dementias. Initial cognitive functioning and physician's prognosis of dementia trajectory were also significant predictors of change over time. Results suggest a floor effect in the BCRS.

Abstract Adult Day Service Centers (ADCs) are a form of community-based long-term care that address frail older adults’ health and social needs. Due to their congregate nature and participants’ compromised health, many ADCs have been forced to temporarily shutter during the COVID-19 pandemic. It is unknown how closures have impacted service delivery at ADCs. Guided by the Resiliency Framework, we (1) explore methods employed by ADCs during the pandemic to meet participant/caregiver needs and (2) determine how/whether these methods have mitigated the negative effects of ADC closures on participants and their caregivers. Both virtual focus groups and one-on-one semi-structured qualitative interviews were conducted with ADC staff members (n=20) across the United States. Preliminary results showed precipitous declines in physical, cognitive, and mental health of participants, as well as increased caregiver strain, particularly among dementia caregivers. However, ADCs found creative solutions to care for participants despite restrictions, creating, in their words, “centers without walls.” Staff developed virtual programs (e.g. support groups, music and exercise therapy) and conducted “door-step” visits to support productive engagement and combat loneliness. Telehealth supported care coordination and identification of emergent clinical problems. Results suggest that despite innumerable COVID-19-related challenges, ADCs demonstrated resilience and creativity in managing participants’ needs, fostered a sense of purpose, and provided caregiver respite. Further research on the effectiveness of remote programming and advocacy for sustainable reimbursement by payers is needed to ensure that ADCs can continue to provide older adults and their families with meaningful support as the pandemic wears on.

Aging Well Day Care Center is a start-up company designed to offer an affordable alternative care for seniors living alone. The services offered will be equally beneficial for families caring for their aging parents. Recent legislation has emphasized the importance of developing daycare centers to handle the rapidly growing population of elder Americans that relies upon the federal insurance programs to help manage their long-lasting medical conditions which can be treated but not cured. The objective of this business plan is to illustrate the need for adult day care services within this region and that adequate resource are available to build and maintain a financially solvent organization.

Adult day care is a new and rapidly growing alternative to long term care for the burgeoning population of frail and disabled elderly. A review of the literature regarding adult day care services revealed a limited number of studies addressing client satisfaction. The current study of 68 participants of nine Kentucky adult day health and social model adult day care centers assessed client satisfaction with services and explored variables related to satisfaction. It was hypothesized that clients who preferred to be at the adult day care center rather than in another location would report higher levels of satisfaction with services than clients who preferred to be elsewhere during the day. It was also hypothesized that clients who perceived themselves as having autonomy in their daily center activities would report higher levels of satisfaction than clients perceiving themselves to have little autonomy at the center. A third hypothesis predicted that client demographic predictors of satisfaction would be similar to those reported by Weissert et al. (1990). Due to the uniformly high level of satisfaction, the hypotheses could not be evaluated. The author did, however, explore the explanation that social desirability contributed to the lack of response variability. A social desirability questionnaire was administered to a subset of clients. The clients in this subset scored high on social desirability items. Given these results, it is possible that measures of client satisfaction with adult day care services are influenced by clients' desire to respond in a socially acceptable manner. Social response set should be taken into consideration when designing or interpreting satisfaction survey data with this population. Clients' responses were more variable on a life satisfaction question and to items addressing perceived autonomy in center activities. Explanations for this variability were explored.

La Vang is a non-profit adult day care facility specifically designed to provide health, nutritional, spiritual, and social care for retired Vietnamese adults during the day time throughout Orange County, CA. From Monday-Friday, clients may arrive in La Vang at 7:00am, and return to their homes at 7:00pm. La Vang will greatly relieve the stress of family caregivers who cannot adequately care for their elderly parents/relatives while also working full-time to support their immediate family. Currently, there are no other adult day care facilities in Orange County that can offer full services in Vietnamese. Ultimately, La Vang will be the only adult day care facility in Orange County that Vietnamese caregivers can confidently entrust their loved ones to during the day. Clients and their families can rest assured that La Vang will not only provide basic day care for its clients, but will also provide comprehensive care that will be culturally sensitive, and appropriate for the elderly Vietnamese population as well.

As the need for community care increases, complete and up-to-date information about organizational structure is crucial to making appropriate decisions about the expansion of adult day services. The absence of uniform national policies results in states and communities being relegated to balancing limited funds with the demand for adult day services, and in many areas, the lack of adult day care centers altogether. This study provides an overview of the types of state reimbursement, the availability of different funding sources, and the utilization of the sources in various states.

The purpose of this research is to explore the sustainability of twelve Social Enterprises (SEs) and examine the role marketing plays in their long-term sustainability. It has focused upon day-care centres which provide work-based training and skills development for adults with learning, mental and physical disabilities. A case study methodology using semi-structured interviews, observation and document analysis was used, and through a grounded theory approach, data was analysed through NVivo. The findings indicate marketing being utilised by SEs, but for the majority, how the Managers understood and defined marketing was based upon a goods-dominant approach, which is argued to be inappropriate for these types of service organisations. This thesis has advocated that is only possible for SEs to be sustainable in the long-term when they view themselves as service organisations rather than through a goods-dominant lens. Thus, this research has identified the relevance of a services-marketing approach for SEs delivering public services. Drawing upon literature from services and relationship marketing and rooted within the public services-dominant logic this thesis has reconceptualised marketing for SEs. It has demonstrated the significance of services theory in understanding SE and by developing the new model of marketing, it has shown the significance of services theory in understanding the tension in their double bottom line. It has identified co-creating value with multiple stakeholder groups as a key route to long-term sustainability.

In my research, I examined abandonment fears in persons with Alzheimer's disease at the Salem Veterans Affairs adult day care center. I observed fifty hours at the center, and conducted open-ended interviews with two of the participants and their respective caregivers. These two participants (Ellen and Opel) at the center expressed abandonment fears much more frequently than any of the other participants. I found that most of the time, these two women would express their abandonment fears in the form of repetitive questions about going home. Staff used two different methods to deal with the problem: 'reassurance by fact' and redirection. The staff was divided as to the efficacy of their methods and whether more frequent attendance would help Ellen and Opel to adjust to the center. Some participants were bothered by the their constant questions, while others were not. Using an existing attachment questionnaire, Ellen's daughter classified her mother as having an avoidant attachment style, but Opel's daughter classified her mother as having secure attachment. Although Ellen's behavior at the center fit with the description of a person with avoidant attachment (e.g., extreme self-reliance, activity disturbance), Opel's fearful nature did not suggest that she had a secure attachment style as her daughter believed.

AbstractObjective: Surgical revascularization for moyamoya disease (MMD) prevents cerebral ischemic attack by improving cerebral blood flow (CBF) and could also reduce the risk of re-bleeding in hemorrhagic-onset patients. We sought to clarify the cerebral hemodynamic changes in the acute stage after revascularization surgery for adult MMD.Materials and methods: The present study includes 54 consecutive adult patients with MMD (21–76 years old, 43.1 average), undergoing superficial temporal artery-middle cerebral artery anastomosis with indirect pial synangiosis on 65 affected hemispheres. We prospectively performed single-photon emission computed tomography (SPECT) at postoperative day (POD) 1 and 7 of 65 surgeries. Perioperative management was conducted with strict blood pressure control (100–130 mmHg) and minocycline hydrochloride administration.Results: The outcome of 65 surgeries was favorable except for one (1.5%), which manifested as delayed intracerebral hemorrhage due to local hyperperfusion. The postoperative SPECT revealed the characteristic CBF improvement pattern with transient local hyperperfusion (POD1) and subsequent distribution of CBF in wider vascular territory (POD7) on 37 hemispheres (56.9%, 37/65).Conclusion: The revascularization surgery is a safe and effective treatment for adult MMD, while transient local hyperperfusion should be strictly managed by intensive perioperative care.

AbstractDiscussion on toddlers’ outdoor play practices in various cultural spaces is rare in literature. In Australia, toddlers’ physical development and well-being is promoted but less attention is given to cultural nuances of outdoor play. We ask the question: How does outdoor play impact on toddlers’ imagination and cultural formation? Conducted in three Australian long day care (LDC) sites, an ethically approved project “Studying babies and toddlers: Cultural worlds and transitory relationships” examines the process of three Australian toddlers’ outdoor enculturation. The concepts of imagination and play from Vygotsky’s cultural-historical theory are drawn upon in relation to Hedegaard’s institutional practices model, to link contextual relations between society, community and family. Cultural formation processes in toddlers’ outdoor play, we argue, are more completely understood when daily life across home and local community is acknowledged. Data findings illustrate complexity of movement and experimentations in cultural conditions, where different spaces hold possibilities for imaginative transformations in toddler’s play. Implications suggest toddlers’ imaginative and culturally responsive outdoor play aligns with availability of interested adult/peers, shared family and community values, and varied local spaces. In this way, affective and dynamic outdoor interactions imbue cultural formation of toddler’s play and imagination with local personal meaning.

This chapter focuses on the preparation and care of adult patients undergoing elective surgery, the associated challenges, and supporting evidence in providing safe and effective care. A key principle is the identification of relevant health issues and optimizing comorbidities prior to admission for surgery, which will minimize cancellations on the day of surgery. Informed consent, patient education, and teamworking all contribute to effective care and efficient service delivery. To provide the optimum healthcare, it is essential that the health professional has a full understanding of the patient’s physical and psychological health and social history, allowing tailored care to be shaped and implemented. It is important that the patient understands the associated risks and benefits of planned treatment. Patients often present for elective surgery with comorbidities. In optimizing the treatment, it is possible to prevent negative consequences related to planned care, and to increase the patient’s understanding of these so that he or she they can make an informed choice. Gathering information prior to admission is important because patients are often anxious on the day of surgery, and medication/anaesthetic agents can render them unable to provide clear decisions relating to treatment. This is commonly referred to as the preoperative assessment (POA), but is probably better referred to as patient preparation. Patient preparation is the process by which a patient’s health status is identified and comorbidities made known to the relevant healthcare professionals. The healthcare professional will interpret the information, decide on additional investigations and examinations, and then determine the risk factors associated with the patient’s health and the anticipated anaesthetic and surgical intervention. The patient must be informed of the risk and benefits and be provided with sufficient information to ensure an informed choice. Integral to patient preparation is the anticipation of potential outcomes, including length of hospitalization, ability to complete activities of daily living, and discharge planning. The process will involve the patient and his or her carer(s) and all healthcare professionals appropriate to the individual patient in primary and secondary care. It may be that, at the end of the patient preparation stage, the patient decides not to proceed with surgery.

Technology and adult education are often discussed as two separate subjects, yet just as it is impossible to live one day without the impact of technology, it is impossible to discuss adult education without considering technology. The growth of the field of adult education and the evolution of modern technology as well as the theorists and practitioners who were instrumental in moving the fields will be considered in this article as the foundation for a paradigm shift in adult education. Since effective adult education involves not only information dissemination but communication and collaboration among its participants, online learning activities and entire online courses influence how the field itself is viewed. This new paradigm will be explored in the current and future world of adult teaching and learning.

This chapter addresses the fundamental nursing role in managing hygiene. The ability to maintain personal and oral hygiene forms some of the activities of living that everyone undertakes every day, but which are often taken for granted until a deterioration in a person’s physical or mental state, such as illness or ageing, prevents individuals from meeting these needs independently. Being able to assess the need for nursing intervention accurately, and to deliver appropriate evidence-based care, requires considerable skill. It draws on many of the core competencies of professional nursing, such as observation, communication, and clinical decision-making. Therefore it is inappropriate that, in a majority of care settings, these activities are often delegated by the registered nurse to those with the least experience. It is important to remember that, registered nurses retain professional accountability for the quality and effectiveness of the interventions provided or delegated to the patients under their care. Increasingly, this fundamental aspect of care is viewed as an overall indicator of the quality of the care provided. Assisting individuals to maintain their personal hygiene needs promotes comfort, safety, well-being, and dignity, and also plays an important part in the prevention of infection. It is also an important aspect of many religions, such as the ritual washing performed by Muslims before prayer. Indeed Young (1991) suggested that cleanliness is a basic human right rather than a luxury. There has been criticism over the past decade that aspects of nursing care relating to the maintenance of patient hygiene have become neglected, and the Healthcare Commission (2007) reported that 30% of complaints received against UK hospitals related to issues of personal care and dignity, including:…● patients being left in soiled clothing or bedding; ● hygiene needs not being met (patients not being washed or mouthcare given); ● hair and nails not being cared for….In response to these criticisms, both the Nursing and Midwifery Council (NMC) and the Department of Health (DH) worked to improve the quality of personal care provided by nurses.

The aim of this chapter is to provide you with the knowledge to be able to recognize, assess, manage, and care for people with depression in an evidence-based and person-centred way. Depression is disabling and causes significant impact upon many areas of the person’s day-to-day functioning; it is therefore important that nurses have the knowledge and skills to recognize whether someone might be depressed and know how to take the appropriate course of action. This chapter will provide a comprehensive overview of the causes and impact of depression, before exploring best practice to deliver care, as well as to prevent or to minimize further ill-health. Nursing assessments and priorities are highlighted throughout, and the nursing management of the symptoms and common health problems associated with depression can be found in Chapter 14….I lost my balance. I fell flat on my face and I couldn’t get up again. And if that implies a certain grace, a slow and easy free-fall, then you have me wrong. It was violent and painful and, above all humiliating . . . I came to understand that we are not simply fighting an illness, but the attitudes that surround it. Imagine saying to someone that you have a life-threatening illness such as cancer, and being told to pull yourself together or get over it. Imagine being terribly ill and too afraid to tell anyone lest it destroy your career. Imagine being admitted into hospital because you are too ill to function and being too ashamed to tell anyone, because it is a psychiatric hospital. Imagine telling someone that you have recently been discharged and watching them turn away, in embarrassment or disgust or fear. Bad enough to be ill, but to feel compelled to deny the very thing that, in its worst and most active state, defines you is agony indeed. (Sally Brampton (2008) in Shoot The Damn Dog.)…Sally’s experience of her depressive episode from her memoir sets the scene of just what people with depression can experience and how big an impact it can have upon their lives. We may all feel low and ‘fed up’ at times, and often we use the term ‘depressed’ as an adjective to describe how we are feeling in general conversation.

"One of the major concerns among the relevant public authorities during the 2019 coronavirus disease (Covid-19) pandemic is the attitude and behavior of the Malaysian society regarding compliance with self-care Covid-19. Although the number of Covid-19 cases is decreasing, public authorities, such as the Malaysian Ministry of Health continually remind people to adhere to the Standard Operating Procedure (SOP) for Covid-19 to reduce the number of cases. To support the authorities’ efforts, a one-day self-care Covid-19 programme involving 10 youths (3 males & 7 females) with a mean age of 17.35 (SD=3.36) was implemented in Bongol village, Tamparuli. To adhere the Covid-19 SOP regulation which prohibits a large number of people from gathering in a confined, crowded and closed spaces, only a few participants were involved. The programme, which was conducted at the Bongol village community hall, involved various organized activities emphasising the three elements of attitude: cognitive, affective, and psychomotor. Before the programme began, all the participants were registered, and their body temperatures scanned to ensure that they were free from any Covid-19 symptoms. Each participant was given a mask and a small bottle of hand sanitiser that could be used throughout the programme. The activities comprised an ice-breaker, a talk on personal self-hygiene, a 20.02-minute self-care video produced by 28 psychology students, personal self-reflections by the participants, a group exercise, a community song, and a two-way discussion on self-care. The Covid-19 self-care programme, implemented with guidance from the Yale Attitude Change Model, emphasizes the practical issue of ‘who says what to whom and with what effects. The participants’ attitude was measured before and after they completed the one-day programme. The results of a Wilcoxon signed-ranked test study showed that there is a significant difference between the participants’ pre- and post-study attitudes towards self-care. The study results showed that the Covid-19 self-care programme, which is based on the social psychology approach, can help foster positive youth attitudes towards self-care. In regard to the authorities’ efforts to lower the number of Covid-19 cases to zero, it is suggested that each party needs (either governmental and non-governmental agencies) to support the Covid-19 campaign and programme by sharing and delivering self-care messages in creative ways to Malaysian communities, especially those in rural areas."

Many young adults experience chronic pain and given its wide availability and potential pain reducing properties, young adults may use cannabis to self-medicate for pain. However, little is known about young adult users’ perceptions of potential health risks and benefits of cannabis, and whether these perceptions differ by chronic pain status. As a part of a larger study, young adult recreational cannabis users (N=176, ages 18-29) who reported using at least once a week completed assessments of use frequency and perceived cannabis-related risks and benefits. The sample had a high proportion of participants who met criteria for chronic pain (51.1%). The majority of the sample reported using daily or multiple times daily (80.7%) with an average of 2.68 (SD=1.42) sessions per day across administration modes (e.g. smoking, edibles, tinctures). Participants answered questions about their lifetime chances of experiencing five cannabis-related risks (personal harm, negative health outcome, negative mental health outcome, harming someone else, increased pain) and benefits (personal benefit, positive health outcome, positive mental health outcome, benefitting someone else, decreased pain; 1=Very low to 7=Very high). Overall, young adult users perceived their risk to be very low (M=1.62, SD=.73) and 40.3% of the sample had an average risk score (combined across the five risk items) of 1.00, while only one participant reported an average risk above 4.00. In particular, participants reported a low lifetime chance of experiencing personal harm (M=1.51, SD=.90), harming someone else (M=1.20, SD=.58), or experiencing increased pain (M=1.24, SD=.74) due to their cannabis use. In contrast, young adult users perceived somewhat high chances of experiencing benefits related to their cannabis use (M=4.78, SD=1.46). In particular, participants perceived a high chance of experiencing reduced pain (M=5.88, SD=1.55), personal benefit (M=4.84, SD=1.86), and positive mental health outcomes (M=4.82, SD=1.77). There was no difference based on pain status on frequency of use, average daily sessions, or perceived risks, and only one difference in perceived benefits. Participants without chronic pain anticipated more personal benefit from cannabis use (M=5.15, SD=1.74) than those with chronic pain (M=4.53, SD=1.94, t(171)=2.21, p=.03). Overall, results suggest young adult recreational users perceive very low risks of their cannabis consumption and moderately high benefits, regardless of pain status. Looking at individual areas of potential risk and benefits may yield targets for future health education campaigns. For example, perceptions of low risk/high benefits regarding mental health outcomes may not be accurate for this heavy using sample.

Aim/Purpose: Awareness of eSafety and potential online dangers for children and teenagers. Background: The study examined eSafety among children and teenagers from their own perspectives, through evaluations of their awareness level of eSafety and of potential online dangers. Methodology: This is a mixed-method study with both quantitative and qualitative elements. The study includes questionnaires and interviews. A total of 345 participants from Israel completed questionnaires; 90 children and teenagers were interviewed from among the participants. Contribution: The study examined eSafety among children and teenagers from their own perspectives, through evaluations of their awareness level of eSafety; potential online dangers; level of privacy online; the degree to which using the Internet facilitates their day-to-day life; exposure to positive, useful, enriching and productive content online; exposure to violent content; the degree to which they communicate or refrain from communicating with strangers online; the degree to which participants feel they require tools to cope with online dangers; the degree to which they define themselves as cautious and prudent Internet users; how they feel online dangers may be avoided – all while accounting for differences in gender, age, and socio-demographic background. Findings: Our findings show that the children and teenagers who participated in the study reported a high level of awareness. After computing a general variable expressing participants’ eSafety awareness level by averaging their responses to various statements, the study found that participants’ awareness level is medium-high. Issues that participants were concerned about included avoiding contact with strangers and cyberbullying, not necessarily by strangers, but also by friends. Recommendations for Practitioners: It is important to teach safe practices for Internet use and ways of coping with cyberbullying in order to maximize the potential inherent in the use of the Internet, and to avoid exposure to online dangers. Recommendation for Researchers: The study examined eSafety awareness by assessing and questioning children and teenage participants regarding their eSafety awareness level, as well as which aspects of Internet use they regard as either positive or negative. The study recommend incorporating in future studies, individual case studies and allowing participants to express how they perceive complex online situations. Impact on Society: This study illustrates the dual potential of Internet use within the context of eSafety, as seen through the eyes of children and teenagers. Future Research: Future studies should analyze differences between children, teenagers, and young adults (up to the age of 24), for the purpose of characterizing eSafety awareness and the effects of abiding by eSafety practices over the years, even after the age of 18, when participants have been using the Internet for relatively many years.

Accidents which resulted in lost work time: using a different concept to deal with safety, focusing directly on the behavior of the worker, leading the worker to a sharper perception of the risks and thus enabling a change of behavior towards a safer attitude. “Sounds and Links” Project: the programmatic content was made through musical dynamics because music has the power to evoke feelings, stimulating the participants to live intrapersonal and interpersonal relationships in order to promote safe behaviors. The methodology used was: • “Andragogic (adult education) Model”; • multidiscipline language; • Methodology of “experiencing and living”; and • Focus on the day-by-day situations of work and life. The project was applied to four groups with 60 people, consisting of employees from TRANSPETRO and its contractors, other group with 60 people, composed by leaders, and one group with all participants of the five groups for the general closing session. Expected Results and consequences of the Project: • to turn the concept of safety as a real value to the worker; • to preserve the integrity and to value the life; pursuit a lasting and stable changing of behavior, based on a safety culture; and • to support the management safety system and reduction of the accidents.

Cannabis policies are continuously evolving, over half of U.S. youth now live in a state with a form of legalized cannabis. Monitoring risk and protective factors is critical to ensure evidence-based youth prevention in this post cannabis-prohibition era. Massachusetts has enacted and implemented three forms of legalization: (1) Decriminalization (2008), (2) medical cannabis (2012), and (3) adult-use cannabis (2016). This study used state Youth Risk Behavior Survey (YRBS) data of participants in grades 9-12 from 2007-2017 (N=17,691). Logistical regression models were run to assess effects of varying cannabis policy and risk or protective behaviors on cannabis use outcomes: (1) Lifetime use; (2) Past 30-day; and (3) Past 30-day heavy use. The enactment of cannabis policies was not associated with greater odds of youth reporting Lifetime and Past 30-day cannabis use behaviors. Any adult-support [heavy use OR=0.43 (95% CI=0.37,0.50), p<.001], better grades [heavy use OR=0.25 (95% CI=0.21,0.29), p<.001], and being heterosexual [heavy use OR=0.42 (95% CI=0.34,0.51), p<.001] were associated with lower odds of all cannabis use outcomes. Multiple risk factors broadly categorized under: risky sexual behaviors, non-heterosexual orientation, weapon carrying/exposure, hopelessness and suicidality behaviors, driving behaviors, and disability were associated with greater odds of cannabis use. Sensitivity analyses showed only one risk behavior was moderate by cannabis policy enactment. Results suggest that cannabis prevention efforts should not occur in a silo, rather evidence-based models for reducing risky behaviors generally may have the largest impact. Building and supporting relationships with trusted adults for youth at higher risk should be emphasized.

While tobacco and cannabis use rates remain high in the general U.S. population, veterans from the conflicts in Iraq and Afghanistan (i.e., OEF/OIF veterans) are at particularly high risk of high rates of cannabis and tobacco use. Co-use of tobacco/nicotine and cannabis (i.e., using both substances within a specified period of time or combining the drugs within the same device for use) is of growing prevalence in the United States. Tobacco/nicotine and cannabis use is often associated with poor mental health outcomes such as stress, anxiety, and depression. However, little is understood about the prevalence rates of tobacco/nicotine and cannabis co-use among U.S. veterans as well as associations with mental health symptomology. The current study aimed to investigate types of tobacco/nicotine and cannabis co-use among veterans, as well as associations between co-use and mental health outcomes of stress, depression, anxiety, and posttraumatic stress disorder. Participants (N= 1,548) were recruited through social media websites and completed an online survey as part of a larger study. The majority (80%) endorsed tobacco/nicotine and/or cannabis use in the past 30 days. Descriptive analyses were run to assess prevalence of use within the sample. Mean comparisons were conducted to assess differences in past 30-day frequency of use and for mental health outcomes between co-users and single users of either substance. Among the larger sample, 90% endorsed lifetime use of tobacco/nicotine, 23% endorsed lifetime use of cannabis, and 21% endorsed any lifetime co-use of both substances. These participants also endorsed past 30 day use of tobacco/nicotine (77%), cannabis (10%), and co-use (7%). Among the past 30-day cannabis users, 66% reported also using tobacco/nicotine, while 9% of past 30-day tobacco/nicotine users also reported cannabis use. When comparing cannabis-only users to co-users of cannabis and tobacco/nicotine, anxiety symptoms were reported as significantly higher among co-users. Tobacco/nicotine-only users endorsed higher past 30-day frequency of cigarettes and e-cigarettes compared to co-users; however, co-users endorsed significantly higher levels of stress and symptoms of PTSD, depression, and anxiety compared to tobacco/nicotine-only users. Results suggest that the addition of cannabis use in conjunction with tobacco/nicotine use may be associated with greater mental health symptoms among veterans. Findings have implications for future veteran mental health care and substance use treatment among tobacco/nicotine and cannabis co-users.

Introduction: Trust in government to take care of its citizens may affect mental health outcomes such as anxiety and depression, particularly as measures become more stringent. The study aimed to investigate the associations between stringency of COVID-19 social distancing policies and mental health outcomes, and the moderating effects of trust in government and gender. Methods: The study consisted of secondary analysis of publicly available cross sectional data from a global online survey COVID-19 survey conducted between 20 March and 7 April 2020. There were 106,497 adult participants (18 years of age and over) from 58 countries. The main outcome measures were indices for depression and worries. The exposure measure was the stringency index. The effect modifier measures were gender and trust in government. Multivariable regression was conducted to determine the three-way interaction between the exposure, modifier and outcome measures, adjusting for age, income and education. Results: The median age of participants (56.4% women) was 37 years. Women had higher worries and depression than men. The proportion of people trusting (44%) and distrusting (45%) the government was almost the same. Among those who strongly trusted the government, an increase in policy stringency was associated with an increase in worries. Among men who distrusted the government, an increase in policy stringency was associated with an increase in depression, but in distrusting women there was an inversed Ushaped association between policy stringency and both worries and depression. Once policies exceeded the 50-point mark on the stringency index, women benefited from the most stringent policies, yet men did not, particularly men who strongly trust or distrust the government. Conclusion: As the stringency of public health measures increases, so too do depression and worries. For safe and effective public health measures, governments should develop strategies to increase trust in their actions.

Review question / Objective: 1-How and by which means stimulated muscle from critically ill patients can liberate myokines?, 2-Which are the main characteristics of the critically ill population studied and if some of these influenced myokine´s secretion?, 5-Can myokines exert local or distant effects in critically ill patients?, 5-Which are the potential effects of myokines in critically ill patients? Eligibility criteria: Participants and context: We will include primary studies (randomized or non-randomized trials, observational studies, case series or case report) that consider hospitalized critically ill adult patients (18 years or older) in risk for developing some degree of neuromuscular disorders such as ICU-AW, diaphragmatic dysfunction, or muscle weakness, therefore the specific setting will be critical care. Concept: This review will be focused on studies regarding the secretion or measure of myokines or similar (exerkines, cytokines or interleukin) by any mean of muscle activation or muscle contraction such as physical activity, exercise or NMES, among others. The latter strategies must be understood as any mean by which muscle, and there for myocytes, are stimulated as result of muscle contraction, regardless of the frequency, intensity, time of application and muscle to be stimulated (upper limb, lower limb, thoracic or abdominal muscles). We also will consider myokine´s effects, local or systemic, over different tissues in terms of their structure or function, such as myocytes function, skeletal muscle mass and strength, degree of muscle wasting or myopathies, among others.

Global studies have demonstrated that using magnesium sulphate (MgSO4) to manage hypertensive disease in pregnancy reduces morbidity and mortality due to severe pre-eclampsia/eclampsia, one of the five direct causes of maternal death. Many countries have been slow to introduce MgSO4 to the detriment of women’s health. There are also critical gaps in health-care provider knowledge, skills, and practice in management of eclampsia. Although the use of MgSO4 was introduced successfully to the Maternity Unit at Kenyatta National Hospital, Nairobi, in 2001, there has been no systematic introduction of the drug across the country. Generally, the only facilities utilizing MgSO4 are those supported by development partners and some mission hospitals. In response to requests from health-care managers and providers in Western Province to be trained in the use of MgSO4, a two-day practical training program was developed. As noted in this brief, the main objective of the training was to ensure that participants had specific skills for preventing and managing severe pre-eclampsia and eclampsia.
