Notes

Parental identity as being a source of parental variation throughout the COVID-19 lockdown.
hESCs cocultured with HSF feeder cells in medium without FGF2 supplementation maintained their pluripotency (as confirmed by the expression of pluripotency markers and genes), differentiated invitro into embryonic germ layers and maintained their normal karyotype. The present study demonstrates that HSFs are a novel feeder cell type for culturing hPSCs and that supplementation of exogenous FGF2 is not necessary for the Chula2.hES line.Fish populations continue to decline globally, signalling the need for new initiatives to conserve endangered species. Over the past two decades, with advances in our understanding of fish germ line biology, new exsitu management strategies for fish genetics and reproduction have focused on the use of germ line cells. The development of germ cell transplantation techniques for the purposes of propagating fish species, most commonly farmed species such as salmonids, has been gaining interest among conservation scientists as a means of regenerating endangered species. Previously, exsitu conservation methods in fish have been restricted to the cryopreservation of gametes or maintaining captive breeding colonies, both of which face significant challenges that have restricted their widespread implementation. However, advances in germ cell transplantation techniques have made its application in endangered species tangible. Using this approach, it is possible to preserve the genetics of fish species at any stage in their reproductive cycle regardless of sexual maturity or the limitations of brief annual spawning periods. Combining cryopreservation and germ cell transplantation will greatly expand our ability to preserve functional genetic samples from threatened species, to secure fish biodiversity and to produce new individuals to enhance or restore native populations.With the aging population, the tide of chronic disease is rising with attendant increases in health service need. Integrated care and patient-centred approaches, which established partnerships between a regional Hospital and health service (HHS), the local primary health network and local general practitioners (GPs), were identified as exemplars of an approach needed to support growing community health needs. This paper summarises the findings from a process evaluation of four GP-specialist care integration programs with the aim of identifying recommendations for embedding integrated GP-specialist care into routine practice within the HHS. The process evaluation of the integration programs drew on input from a multidisciplinary expert advisory group and data collected through face-to-face semi-structured interviews with key stakeholders, as well as surveys of participating GPs and patients. Overarching findings were identified and grouped under six themes interdisciplinary teamwork; communication and information exchange; the use of shared care guidelines or pathways; training and education; access and accessibility; and funding. Within each theme, key challenges and enablers emerged. The findings of this study highlight benefits and challenges associated with the establishment of integrated care between primary and secondary care providers, leading to the development of key recommendations for routine integration.Primary Sense is a new data extraction, analysis and reporting tool that the Gold Coast Primary Health Network (GCPHN) has developed to enable practical and effective population health management in general practice and also on a regional level. Once installed, the tool de-identifies data within the practice before running it through various clinical risk algorithms to create practical information that can easily be actioned within the general practice business model in at least two ways. The first is to generate up-to-date reports of patients who are most likely to benefit from specific interventions or occasions of service. The second is to identify potentially serious medication safety issues, alerting clinicians in real time at point of prescribing. Decursin nmr Formal live testing of the system was completed in nine practices where 22 managers and nurses and 42 GPs used the tool over a 5-month period in 2019. The live test monitored the use of reports and alerts, and regular feedback from users enabled small but important improvements to the tool. Practice teams successfully used the reports to target specific groups of patients with outstanding care needs or who were at greatest risk of adverse health outcomes. The results of the live test showed that users found Primary Sense to be easy to use and beneficial to general practice. The next phase of this project is now underway to further trial the scalability and change management requirements for full implementation of Primary Sense. As more and more practices adopt the tool, the aggregated data will increasingly help to support population health planning, commissioning of local services, active health surveillance and other related activities.Low back pain (LBP) is the highest cause of years lived with a disability in Australia and the most frequent musculoskeletal condition for which patients seek primary care. The aims of this study were to (1) evaluate the current practices and perspectives of Australian GPs and physiotherapists managing acute back pain; and (2) explore alignment of care with clinical guidelines. This was a prospective cross-sectional Internet survey conducted from March 2018 to May 2018 of experienced Australian GPs and physiotherapists. Descriptive statistics were used to analyse all quantitative outcomes. Two hundred primary care practitioners (72% physiotherapists and 28% GPs) from all States and Territories of Australia completed the survey. Most primary care practitioners were familiar with clinical guidelines for acute back pain management and reported delivery of many of the core components of guideline-based care, including education, advice about favourable prognosis, encouraging activity and self-management and discouraging prolonged bed rest. Deviations from guideline-based care were common, including provision of analgesic medication, passive therapies and using radiological imaging. Australian primary care clinicians in this sample were aware of back pain guidelines and typically implement care that is consistent with guideline-based recommendations. Divergences from these guidelines may indicate that primary care practitioners are delivering evidence-based and person-centred care that integrates clinicians' judgement with patients' preferences and guideline-based evidence.
