BACKGROUND Neighbourhood characteristics may affect mental health and well-being, but longitudinal evidence is limited. We examined the effect of relocating to East Village (the former London 2012 Olympic Athletes' Village), repurposed to encourage healthy active living, on mental health and well-being. METHODS 1278 adults seeking different housing tenures in East village were recruited and examined during 2013-2015. 877 (69%) were followed-up after 2 years; 50% had moved to East Village. Analysis examined change in objective measures of the built environment, neighbourhood perceptions (scored from low to high; quality -12 to 12, safety -10 to 10 units), self-reported mental health (depression and anxiety) and well-being (life satisfaction, life being worthwhile and happiness) among East Village participants compared with controls who did not move to East Village. Follow-up measures were regressed on baseline for each outcome with group status as a binary variable, adjusted for age, sex, ethnicity, housing tenure and household clustering (random effect). RESULTS Participants who moved to East Village lived closer to their nearest park (528 m, 95% CI 482 to 575 m), in more walkable areas, and had better access to public transport, compared with controls. Living in East Village was associated with marked improvements in neighbourhood perceptions (quality 5.0, 95% CI 4.5 to 5.4 units; safety 3.4, 95% CI 2.9 to 3.9 units), but there was no overall effect on mental health and well-being outcomes. CONCLUSION Despite large improvements in the built environment, there was no evidence that moving to East Village improved mental health and well-being. Changes in the built environment alone are insufficient to improve mental health and well-being. © Author(s) (or their employer(s)) 2020. Re-use permitted under CC BY-NC. No commercial re-use.

With the rapid development of data science, encompassing big data and artificial intelligence, and with the exponential growth of accessible and highly heterogeneous health-related data, from healthcare providers to user-generated online content, the field of surveillance and health monitoring is changing rapidly. It is, therefore, the right time for a short glossary of key terms in public health surveillance, with an emphasis on new data-science developments in the field. © Author(s) (or their employer(s)) 2020.

In diabetic patients, CKD may result from a combination of metabolic and non-metabolic-related factors with mortality mainly driven by cardiovascular events. The marked overactivity of the urotensinergic system in diabetic patients implicates this vasoactive peptide as a possible contributor to the pathogenesis of renal as well as heart failure. Previous preclinical studies with UII antagonists in chronic kidney disease were based on simple endpoints that do not reflect the complex etiology of the disease. The present study was undertaken to extensively characterize 1-([6-4-chloro-3-[3-(dimethylamino)propoxy]phenyl-5-(2-methylphenyl)pyridin-2-yl]carbonylamino) cyclohexanecarboxylic acid hydrochloride (SAR101099), a potent, selective and orally long-acting UT competitive antagonist inhibiting not only UII but also URP activities. SR101099 treatment more than halved proteinurea and alat CKD may have been compromised by the lack of appropriate tools/models to better appreciate its therapeutic value. New potent, selective, orally long-acting cross species UT antagonist such as SAR101099 exerting reno- and cardio-protective effects could offer novel therapeutic opportunities. Its preclinical and clinical results suggest that UT antagonism remains an attractive target in CKD on top of current standard of care.

ISRIB As the underlying mechanisms of SUI and UUI are different, no drug is approved to treat all three types of urinary incontinence. TAS-303 is a selective norepinephrine reuptake inhibitor and has therapeutic potential for SUI patients. In this report, we describe newly discovered pharmacological properties of TAS-303 and its effects on bladder function. Radioligand binding studies showed that TAS-303 inhibits M3 muscarinic receptor binding with a Ki value of 547 nM. TAS-303 at 1, 3, and 10 mg/kg dose dependently prolonged the inter-contraction interval of carbachol-induced detrusor overactivity in rats, exhibiting a maximal effect that was comparable to tolterodine. These effects may result from coordinated regulation of bladder afferent activity via M3 muscarinic inhibitimerican Society for Pharmacology and Experimental Therapeutics.Streptococcus agalactiae is an important pathogenic bacterium causing great economic loss in Nile tilapia (Oreochromis niloticus) culture. Resistant and susceptible groups sharing the same genome showed significantly different resistance to S. agalactiae in the genetically improved farmed tilapia strain of Nile tilapia. The resistance mechanism is unclear. We determined genome-wide DNA methylation profiles in spleen of resistant and susceptible O. niloticus at 5 h postinfection with S. agalactiae using whole-genome bisulfite sequencing. The methylation status was higher in the spleen samples from resistant fish than in the susceptible group. A total of 10,177 differentially methylated regions were identified in the two groups, including 3725 differentially methylated genes (DMGs) (3129 hyper-DMGs and 596 hypo-DMGs). The RNA sequencing showed 2374 differentially expressed genes (DEGs), including 1483 upregulated and 891 downregulated. Integrated analysis showed 337 overlapping DEGs and DMGs and 82 overlapping DEGs and differentially methylated region promoters.
