WLS professionals negotiate fat stigma and question dominant discourses regarding body size, thin ideals and responsibility.Young people's drinking has declined markedly in Australia over the past 15 years, and this may be linked to changing norms and values around health. We take the view that healthism-a discourse that privileges good health and renders people personally responsible for managing health-has become pervasive, creating new pressures influencing young people's alcohol practices. Through interviews with 50 young light drinkers and abstainers, we explored these notions of health and alcohol. Although health was not the only reason that participants abstained or drank lightly, many avoided drinking to minimise health risks and to pursue healthy lifestyles. Their understanding of health came from multiple sources such as the media, schools, parents-and often reinforced public health messages, and healthist discourse. This discourse influenced how participants perceived health norms, engaged with health in everyday life and managed their alcohol consumption. Because the need to be healthy incorporated bodily health, mental health and social wellbeing, it also created tensions around how young people could drink while maintaining their health. This highlights the importance of health as a key consideration in the alcohol practices of light drinking and abstaining young Australians, which could help explain broader declines in youth drinking.An integrative taxonomic analysis combining mitochondrial cytochrome oxidase subunit I sequences, morphology, colour pattern and two species delimitation approaches revealed the existence of five lineages within the Natal mountain catfish, Amphilius natalensis, in southern Africa. These lineages are separated by substantial genetic divergences (1.6%-9.46%), and they can be consistently distinguished from one another based on a combination of morphology and colour pattern differences. Additionally, the lineages are allopatrically distributed and confined to isolated river systems draining discrete mountain ranges, which makes gene flow among them unlikely. One of these lineages is A. natalensis s.s., which is confined to the uMngeni and Tukela river systems in KwaZulu Natal (KZN) Province in South Africa. The other four lineages represent new species to science which are described as Amphilius zuluorum sp. nov., endemic to the uMkhomazi River system in KZN, Amphilius engelbrechti sp. nov., endemic to the Inkomati River system in Mpumalanga Province in South Africa, Amphilius marshalli sp. nov., endemic to the Pungwe and Lower Zambezi river systems in Zimbabwe and Mozambique, and Amphilius leopardus sp. nov., endemic to the Ruo River in Malawi. The results show that Amphilius laticaudatus which is endemic to the Buzi River system in Zimbabwe and Mozambique, belongs to the A. natalensis s.l. complex. A redescription of A. laticaudatus is presented and an updated identification key for the mountain catfishes of southern Africa is provided.Government policy in the UK emphasises that people with intellectual disabilities should have the opportunity to make choices and exert control over their own lives as much as possible. Vismodegib The ability of a person to resist activities and offers is therefore important, particularly for people with severe and profound intellectual disabilities, who are likely to have language impairments and need to communicate their choices non-verbally. Video and ethnographic data were collected from two services for people with severe and profound intellectual disabilities. Examples of resistance by people with severe and profound intellectual disabilities and responses to that resistance by support workers were collected and examined using conversation analysis and ethnographic description. A range of non-verbal resistance behaviours are described, and the difficulty for support workers in identifying resistance when behaviour is ambiguous is discussed. The importance of understanding these behaviours as examples of decision-making is stressed.Unravelling the structure of thiolated metalloid gold nanoclusters in the medium-sized range by single crystal X-ray crystallography (SCXC) is challenging. Herein, we successfully synthesized a novel Au67 (SR)35 nanocluster, and unravelled its single crystal structure by SCXC, which features a mix-structured Au48 kernel protected by one Au4 (SR)5 staple and fifteen Au(SR)2 staples. Unprecedentedly, this structure can be thermally induced to aggregate into larger nanoparticles and self-deposit to form a gold nanoparticles film onto the walls of a vial or other substrates such as quartz, mica or ceramic, which can be developed into a facile, substrate-universal and scalable filming method. The film exhibits high sensitivity, uniformity and recyclability as a surface-enhanced Raman scattering (SERS) substrate and can be applied for detecting multiple organic pollutants.This qualitative study focuses on self-medication with antibiotics as it relates to gender roles and traditions in the Arab society in Israel, a collectivist minority with defined traditional gender norms. Its findings draw on the analysis of 116 face-to-face interviews with 60 pharmacists, 27 primary care physicians and 29 community members, mainly mothers and unmarried women, from different geographical localities. The findings describe how mothers are assigned the role of the family health caretakers, expected to abide to a hierarchical power structure, and listen to the advice of 'senior mothers'. These expectations can lead to mothers self-medicating their children and themselves with antibiotics. Traditional constraints associated with sexuality were also found to compel unmarried women to self-medicate. The findings point to a duality of power in family relations women submit to having limited power in traditional gender roles but are accorded power as medical experts in health-care decision-making. The study concludes with recommendations for considering sociocultural factors of hierarchy, traditions and collectivist orientation when researching self-care patterns and developing interventions to curtail antibiotics overuse. It also points to the importance of recognising pressures exerted on unmarried women and enabling them to use health-care resources in their community for managing sexual health.
