These were evaluated further and ranked by the other criteria. Finally, 594 interventions were classified as high priority (58%), 213 as medium priorities (21%) and 211 as low priority interventions (21%). The current policy is to provide 570 interventions (56%) free of charge while guaranteeing the availability of the remaining services with cost-sharing (38%) and cost-recovery (6%) mechanisms in place. In conclusion, the revision of Ethiopia's EHSP followed a participatory, inclusive and evidence-based prioritization process. The interventions included in the EHSP were comprehensive and were assigned to health care delivery platforms and linked to financing mechanisms.
To evaluate whether the use of electronic medical record (EMR) to prompt universal eating disorder screening with a short questionnaire improved risk detection in a college gynecology clinic.
Data obtained via a convenience sample of patients accessing a university health clinic. Clinicians were prompted with the SCOFF tool, a 5-item questionnaire for eating disorder risk with sensitivity of 87.5% and specificity of 95%.
111 Female-identified patients, ages 18-37.
Clinicians assessed eating disorder symptoms via EMR prompting. Comparison of risk identification from the previous year, in which patients were not universally screened, was conducted via EMR review.
Findings showed improved risk identification compared with previous year's symptom-only identification (
.0047).
The SCOFF tool, combined with EMR prompting, can improve eating disorder risk detection.

To assess the acceptability, appropriateness, and feasibility of an active break designed to disrupt prolonged sitting in university students.
Students attending lectures in Trinity College Dublin, Ireland.
Participants took part in an active break, which consisted of following a short exercise video lasting ∼4 min. They then completed a validated questionnaire consisting of 12 statements with two open-ended questions capturing likes/dislikes.
Overall 106 (response rate 96%) predominately female (83%,
= 87), health sciences students (91%,
= 96) participated. Percentage agreement ranged from 93.4% (
= 99) to 96.2% (
= 102) for acceptability, 84.9% (
= 90) to 93.4% (
= 99) for appropriateness, and 80.2% (
= 85) to 96.2% (
= 102) for feasibility. Space constraints and warm temperatures impacted negatively.
An active break delivered during lectures is an acceptable and feasible intervention to disrupt sitting in students. Further investigation using a broader representation of the g in students. Further investigation using a broader representation of the university population is needed prior to implementation.Clay products for oral use form a particular group of food supplements in relation to potential arsenic (As) toxicity, because - certainly in case of pure clay- all arsenic in these supplements is expected to be present in the most toxic inorganic form (Asi). In terms of risk, the most important questions to answer relate to the bioaccessibility and bioavailability of the inorganic arsenic present, rather than to the As species distribution, which often receives most attention in standard foodstuffs. In the present study, clay products for oral use were bought on the Belgian market and analysed for total arsenic (Astot), arsenic species (Asi, arsenobetaine, dimethylarsenate and monomethylarsenate)) and bioaccessible arsenic, in order to perform an exposure assessment and risk characterisation. Total As concentrations differed considerably between the samples and ranged from 0.20 to 6.4 mg Astot/kg. Bioaccessibility of Asi, determined via the Unified Barge Method (extraction making use of digestive enzymes) varied between 8% and 51%. The Asi concentration determined via HPLC-ICP-MS after extraction with diluted HNO3 + H2O2 (as in the CEN method for foodstuffs) was only a poor predictor of the bioaccessible Asi fraction, despite the significant relationship (R2 = 0.36; p less then .05). The risk characterisation did not reveal acute risks related to Asi exposure. However, a potential concern with regard to chronic Asi intake was identified for the general population in 42% of the analysed food supplements, and for sensitive population groups in 67% of the samples, even after taking into account the bioaccessible fraction. The data presented illustrate that consumption of some of these clay products may contribute significantly to dietary Asi intake and that these should not be taken chronically.
The peri-engraftment respiratory distress syndrome (PERDS) is an early important cause of morbidity following autologous hematopoietic cell transplantation (HCT). There are few contemporary data describing PERDS.
To determine prevalence, risk factors, and outcomes of PERDS after autologous HCT.
This was a historical cohort study of adults undergoing autologous HCT at Mayo Clinic, Rochester, MN between 2005 and 2016. PERDS was defined as i) respiratory failure requiring supplemental oxygen within 5 days on either side of the neutrophil engraftment date, ii) new pulmonary opacities on chest imaging, and iii) exclusion of an infectious or cardiac etiology to explain the clinical presentation.
Of 3473 patients undergoing autologous HCT, 167 (4.8%) developed PERDS. Radiographic changes preceded engraftment in 77% of cases. In a multivariable regression model, risk factors for PERDS included female sex (OR 1.73, p = 0.001), the number of pre-engraftment platelet transfusions (OR 1.22, p = 0.002), and more rapid engraftment (OR 0.72 per day longer, p < 0.001). PERDS cases were more likely to be admitted to the ICU (47.3% v. 9.5%, p < 0.001) and require intubation (20.4% v. 1.6%, p < 0.001). In an adjusted 100-day death analysis, those diagnosed with PERDS were more likely to die (HR 3.1, 95% CI 1.5-6.2, p = 0.002).
PERDS is a common complication of autologous HCT, and is associated with increased mortality and healthcare utilization. Radiographic evidence of pulmonary involvement precedes hematopoietic recovery. A larger number of platelet transfusions and more rapid engraftment appear to increase risk for PERDS.

This study investigates the exercise intensity and perceived exertion of e-trike cycling. Twenty healthy participants cycled on an e-trike with different speeds (12 and 18 km/h) and different levels of electric pedal support at an outdoor athletics track. Exercise intensity was measured with oxygen consumption ( V ˙ O 2 ) using a Cosmed K4B2 analysis unit, perceived exertion was measured with the Borg Rating of Perceived Exertion scale, pedaling power, and engine power were measured with a torque sensor. The effect of speed and support was analyzed with a Linear Mixed Effects model. V ˙ O 2 was 18.67 ± 3.13 ml/kg/min without support, with electric support the exercise intensity was significantly below moderate intensity (i.e. 10.5 ml/kg/min) at t = 11.37, p less then .001, 95% CI 1.90, 2.77. The Borg score without support was 9.79 ± 1.72 and all other conditions below this, which were significantly below moderate intensity (i.e. 11) at t = -3.07, p = .007, 95% CI -2.04, -0.38. Speed and support significantly affected V ˙ O 2 (F = 185.49, p less then .001). E-trike cycling is a low intensity activity, but intensity can be influenced by changing speed and support level.This introductory article frames our special issue in terms of how historicizing research integrity and fraud can benefit current discussions of scientific conduct and the need to improve public trust in science.This introductory essay frames our special issue by discussing how attention to the history of research integrity and fraud can stimulate new historical and methodological insights of broader import to historians of science.The family life courses of immigrants and their descendants have been widely studied as indicators of societal integration. But largely absent are investigations into the role of cohabitation in the family lives of these subpopulations. Using Norwegian register data on individuals who were either native born or who immigrated before age 18, we analyse the formation of first cohabiting and marital unions. Next, we compare associations between endogamous or exogamous partner choice and transitions from these first unions. Results showed that the children of immigrants were less likely to cohabit endogamously, but overall more likely to cohabit exogamously and to marry than Norwegians without a migration background. Endogamous migrant-background cohabiting unions were least likely to dissolve, whereas cohabiting couples involving one or two majority partners were less marriage prone than endogamous migrant-background couples. Similarly, among those married, endogamous migrant-background couples were less likely to divorce than their exogamous counterparts.
Cystatin C, neutrophil gelatinase-associated lipocalin and galectin-3 have emerged as biomarker candidates to predict cardiovascular outcomes and mortality in the general population as well as in patients with coronary artery or renal disease. However, their predictive role and clinical utility in patients with acute coronary syndromes alone or in combination beyond currently used risk scores remains to be determined.
Cystatin C, neutrophil gelatinase-associated lipocalin, and galectin-3 were measured in plasmas of 1832 patients at the time of presentation with acute coronary syndromes requiring percutaneous coronary intervention or coronary artery bypass grafting. The primary outcomes were major adverse cardiac and cerebrovascular events (defined as the composite of all-cause mortality, cerebrovascular events, any repeat revascularization or myocardial infarction) and all-cause mortality after 1 year and occurred in 192 (10.5%) and 78 (4.3%) of patients, respectively. All three biomarkers were increased in those with major adverse cardiac and cerebrovascular events compared with those without (
