Migrants are not over-represented in drowning statistics. However, unique trends were found for drowning among migrants based on country of birth and length of time in Australia. Implications for public health Holistic drowning prevention strategies and policies are required to effectively lower drowning risk among migrant communities.

However, most computational models remain brittle with respect to the given instructions, and they lack the ability to adapt dynamically to variants of the instructions. This paper aims to illustrate modeling constructs designed to make instruction following more robust, including (1) more flexible grounding of language to execution, (2) processing of instructions that allows for inference of implicit instruction knowledge, and (3) dynamic, interactive clarification of instructions during both the learning and execution stages. Examples in the context of a paired-associates task and a visual-search task are discussed.The present study investigated the hormonal and neural responses to stress in a perimenopause animal model induced by 4-vinylcyclohexene diepoxide (VCD), which induces progressive follicular depletion in rodents, allowing studies on the transition to ovarian failure. Female rats, aged 28 days old, were s.c. injected for 15 consecutive days with corn oil or VCD. At 85 ± 5 days after the onset of treatment, the jugular vein was cannulated in the afternoon of metoestrus and in next morning (dioestrus) at 10.00 am, rats were subjected to 30 minutes of restraint stress. Blood samples were withdrawn before (-5 minutes), during (2, 5, 15 and 30 minutes) and after (45, 60 and 90 minutes) stress and plasma prolactin, progesterone and corticosterone levels were measured. Animals were perfused, brains processed for c-Fos/tyrosine hydroxylase (TH) in the locus coeruleus (LC) and c-Fos/corticotrophin-releasing factor (CRF) in the paraventricular nucleus (PVN). In unstressed rats the density of β-endorphin fibres was assessed in LC and PVN. In VCD-treated rats, stress-induced prolactin peak was higher, basal and peak progesterone levels were lower, and both levels of corticosterone were similar to controls. L(+)Monosodiumglutamatemonohydrate However, the recovery period was longer for both adrenal hormones. In VCD-treated rats the number of c-Fos/TH and c-Fos/CRF-immunoreactive neurones was higher whereas the density of β-endorphin fibres was lower in LC and PVN. We surmise that the hyperactivity of the LC and PVN neurones in VCD-treated rats may be a result of the lower progesterone levels that resulted in the decrease of β-endorphin content in both nuclei, thus impairing the negative-feedback mechanism in the recovery period.
To determine if global warming has changed the balance of summer and winter deaths in Australia.
Counts of summer and winter cause-specific deaths of subjects aged 55 and over for the years 1968-2018 were entered into a Poisson time-series regression. Analysis was stratified by states and territories of Australia, by sex, age and cause of death (respiratory, cardiovascular, and renal diseases). The warmest and coldest subsets of seasons were compared.
Warming over 51 years was associated with a long-term increase in the ratio of summer to winter mortality from 0.73 in the summer of 1969 to 0.83 in the summer of 2018. The increase occurred faster in years that were warmer than average.
Mortality in the warmest and coldest times of the year is converging as annual average temperatures rise. Implications for public health If climate change continues, deaths in the hottest months will come to dominate the burden of mortality in Australia.

By combining a directed retro-aldol/aldol process, a [2,3]-sigmatropic rearrangement, and an Al(O-iPr)3 -promoted reductive 1,3-transposition, the asymmetric total syntheses of five 8,9-seco-ent-kauranoids-(-)-shikoccin, (-)-O-methylshikoccin, (-)-epoxyshikoccin, (+)-O-methylepoxyshikoccin, and (+)-rabdo-hakusin-have been achieved in a concise and efficient manner.
Calcium carbonate is a biomineral whose precipitation could be mediated by ureolytic bacteria and contributes in strengthening of sandy soils. The type of bacteria and grade of reagents have significant influence on microbially induced calcite precipitation (MICP). In the present study, factorial experiments based on these two factors were designed to determine their potential on MICP process, taking into consideration the economic advantages while giving quality results as well.
For the first time, Alkalibacterium iburiense strain EE1 (GenBank accession no. MF355369.1) is reported for its biogrouting activity. Optimum growth conditions for MICP treatments were pH (9·56±0·021), EC (44·7±0·057mScm
), OD
(2·04±0·015), NH
concentration (487·06±1·021mmoll
), and urease activity (20·0±0·75mmoll
urea hydrolysed min
) after 72-h incubation. Statistical analysis comparing the growth in technical-grade medium prepared in tap water and analytical-grade medium prepared in deionized water showed no sig applications in various geotechnical engineering.A novel nitrogen-doped graphene quantum dots (N-GQDs) with a green fluorescence emission was synthesized through microwave method using citric acid and semicarbazide hydrochloride as reactants. The as-synthesized N-GQDs exhibited good stability, excellent water solubility, and negligible cytotoxicity. Due to intermolecular charge transfer, ferric ion (Fe3+ ) has a strong quenching effect on the N-GQDs. Fluorescence quenching has a linear relationship with the Fe3+ concentration in the range 0.02-12 μM. The detection limit was 1.43 nM. What is more, it is worth mentioning that the obtained N-GQDs showed high selectivity and sensitivity towards Fe3+ . Under the optimum conditions, the addition of 10-fold copper ions and 100-fold other metal ions had no influence on the detection of Fe3+ (0.8 μM), which indicated a higher sensitivity compared with that of the reported methods. Due to their excellent properties, the obtained N-GQDs was successfully applied for sensing and imaging Fe3+ in water samples and HeLa cells.
