BackgroundTrauma registries are a crucial component of trauma systems, as they could be utilized to perform a benchmarking of quality of care and enable research in a critical but important area of health care. The aim of this study is to compare the performance of two national trauma systems: Germany (TraumaRegister DGU®, TR-DGU) and Israel (Israeli National Trauma Registry, INTR).MethodsThe present study was a retrospective analysis of data from the described above trauma registries in Israel and Germany. Adult patients from both registries treated during 2015–2019 with an Injury Severity Score (ISS) ≥ 16 points were included. Patient demographics, type, distribution, mechanism, and severity of injury, treatment delivered and length of stay (LOS) in the ICU and in the hospital were included in the analysis.ResultsData were available from 12,585 Israeli patients and 55,660 German patients. Age and sex distribution were comparable, and road traffic collisions were the most prevalent cause of injuries. The ISS of German patients was higher (ISS 24 vs. 20), more patients were treated on an intensive care unit (92 vs. 32%), and mortality was higher (19.4 vs. 9.5%) as well.ConclusionDespite similar inclusion criteria (ISS ≥ 16), remarkable differences between the two national datasets were observed. Most probably, this was caused by different recruitment strategies of both registries, like trauma team activation and need for intensive care in TR-DGU. More detailed analyses are needed to uncover similarities and differences of both trauma systems.

ObjectivesThe aims are to explore the factors influencing Bangladeshi patients' decision-making process and their satisfaction level toward medical tourism in India.MethodsThe study used a quantitative research approach with a cross-sectional survey. Data were collected from the patients or their relatives (N = 388) who would have decided to travel to India for medical and treatment purposes at the Chittagong Indian visa center (IVAC). Data were collected using a structured, pre-tested, and facilitator-administered questionnaire, which mainly included the social demographic characteristics, health status, medical tourism information and medical tourism index. Hierarchical regression analysis was performed to explore the factors influencing their satisfaction level toward medical tourism in India.ResultsMore than three-fourths of the participants had visited India for self-treatment. Of the participants, 14% were cardiology patients, and 13% suffered from cancer. The relatives were the key source of information regarding medical tourism for more than one-fourth of the respondents. India's availability of well-experienced doctors, hospital/medical facilities with high standards, well-trained doctors, reputable doctors, and quality treatments and medical materials were top-ranked items. Regression results depict that facility and services appeared as the strongest factor (β = 0.24, t = 4.71, p &lt; 0.001) followed by tourism destination factor (β = 0.16, t = 3.11, p = 0.002), medical tourism costs factor (β = 0.16, t = 3.24, p = 0.001) and country environment factor (β = 0.15, t = 2.69, p = 0.007).ConclusionsWe found that the factor related to facility and services is one of the strongest predictors in our models. Therefore, home countries must strengthen the health care providers' advanced professional training, including service attitudes. Moreover, it is important to lessen the language barrier, reduce the airfare for medical tourists, and make the treatment cost more affordable for patients.

Published: May 2023

Introduction: The bioaccumulation and differential effects of cadmium tellurium quantum dot (CdTe QDs) nanomaterials with different functional groups are poorly understood in aquatic organisms. This study aimed to investigate the metal uptake, developmental effects, and respiratory effects of CdTe QDs with different functional groups (COOH, NH3, and PEG) on zebrafish embryos.Methods: Zebrafish embryos were exposed to carboxylate (COOH), ammonia (NH3), and polyethylene glycol (PEG) functionalized CdTe QDs at nominal concentrations of 0.5, 2, 4, 6, and 20 mg QDs/L. The materials were characterized in E3 exposure media and the metal uptake, developmental effects, and respiratory effects of zebrafish embryos were recorded.Results: The total Cd or Te concentrations in the larvae could not be explained by the metal concentrations or dissolution of the materials in the exposure media. The metal uptake in the larvae was not dose-dependent, except for the QD-PEG treatment. The QD-NH3 treatment caused respiration inhibition at the highest exposure concentration and hatching delays and severe malformations at low concentrations. The toxicities observed at low concentrations were attributed to particles crossing the pores in the chorion, and toxicities at higher concentrations were linked to the aggregation of particle agglomerates to the surface of the chorion impairing respiration. Developmental defects were recorded following exposure to all three functional groups, but the QD-NH3 group had the most severe response. The LC50 values for embryo development of QD-COOH and QD-PEG groups were higher than 20 mg/L, and the LC50 of the QD-NH3 group was 20 mg/L.Discussion: The results of this study suggest that CdTe QDs with different functional groups have differential effects on zebrafish embryos. The QD-NH3 treatment caused the most severe effects, including respiration inhibition and developmental defects. These findings provide valuable information for understanding the effects of CdTe QDs on aquatic organisms and highlight the need for further investigation.

Published: May 2023

Objective: Observational epidemiological studies have shown a link between obesity and sepsis, but any causal relationship is not clear. Our study aimed to explore the correlation and causal relationship between body mass index and sepsis by a two-sample Mendelian randomization (MR).Methods: In large sample genome-wide association studies, single-nucleotide polymorphisms related to body mass index were screened as instrumental variables. Three MR methods, MR-Egger regression, weighted median estimator, and inverse variance-weighted, were used to evaluate the causal relationship between body mass index and sepsis. Odds ratio (OR) and 95% confidence interval (CI) were used as the evaluation index of causality, and sensitivity analyses were conducted to assess pleiotropy and instrument validity.Results: By two-sample MR, the inverse variance weighting method results suggested that increased body mass index was associated with an increased risk of sepsis (odds ratio 1.32; 95% CI 1.21–1.44; p = 1.37 × 10−9) and streptococcal septicemia (OR 1.46; 95% CI 1.11–1.91; p = 0.007), but there was no causal relationship with puerperal sepsis (OR, 1.06; 95% CI, 0.87–1.28; p = 0.577). Sensitivity analysis was consistent with the results, and there was no heterogeneity and level of pleiotropy.Conclusion: Our study supports a causal relationship between body mass index and sepsis. Proper control of body mass index may prevent sepsis.

Published: May 2023

Objectives: The European Centre for Disease Control (ECDC) COVID-19 guidelines for non-pharmaceutical interventions (NPI) identify safety, hygiene and physical distancing measures to control SARS-Cov-2 transmission in schools. Because their implementation requires complicated changes, the guidelines also include “accompanying measures” of risk communication, health literacy and community engagement. Although these are considered crucial, their implementation is complex. This study aimed to co-define a community partnership that a) identifies systemic barriers and b) designs recommendations on how to implement the NPI to improve SARS-Cov-2 prevention in schools.Methods: We designed and piloted a System-Oriented Dialogue Model with the participation of 44 teachers and 868 students and their parents from six Spanish schools during 2021. The results were analysed using thematic analysis.Results: Participants identified 406 items addressing issues related to system characteristics, which is indicative of the complexity of the challenge. Using a thematic analysis, we defined 14 recommendations covering five categories.Conclusion: These findings could help in developing guidelines for initiating community engagement partnerships in schools to provide more integrated prevention interventions.

Published: May 2023

Corylus yunnanensis (Franch.) A. Camus is a deciduous shrub, native to the Hengduan Mountain of Qinghai–Tibetan Plateau, and is an economically and ecologically important woody crop species. In the present study, one hundred and fifty trees sampled from ten populations of C. yunnanensis in Sichuan Province were investigated to assess the population genetic variation using nine SSR markers. The results revealed that C. yunnanensis has an average value of 12.111 alleles, 3.376 effective alleles, an expected heterozygosity of 0.648, and an observed heterozygosity of 0.630, presenting a relatively high level of genetic diversity. The C. yunnanensis populations in Maoxian and Wenchuan of Aba Prefecture expressed the highest value of genetic diversity, whereas the Hanyuan and Muli populations showed the lowest. Moreover, the genetic differentiation of ten C. yunnanensis populations averaged to 0.106. Correspondingly, AMOVA revealed that 87% of the total variance was accounted for the variation within populations, and only 13% was among the populations. Both UPGMA and Bayesian STRUCTURE clustering suggested that the ten C. yunnanensis populations could fall into three clusters: the Aba Prefecture population, the Ya’an population, and the population of Ganzi and Liangshan Prefecture, indicating a significant geographic distribution, which was also confirmed by the Mantel test. Our study could provide a better understanding of population genetic diversity, and serve valuable information for the genetic improvement of C. yunnanensis.

Background
Identifying and responding to patients affected by domestic violence and abuse (DVA) is vital in primary care. There may have been a rise in the reporting of DVA cases during the COVID-19 pandemic and associated lockdown measures. Concurrently general practice adopted remote working that extended to training and education. IRIS (Identification and Referral to Improve Safety) is an example of an evidence-based UK healthcare training support and referral programme, focusing on DVA. IRIS transitioned to remote delivery during the pandemic.

Aim
To understand the adaptations and impact of remote DVA training in IRIS-trained general practices by exploring perspectives of those delivering and receiving training.

Design and setting
Qualitative interviews and observation of remote training of general practice teams in England were undertaken.

Method
Semi-structured interviews were conducted with 21 participants (three practice managers, three reception and administrative staff, eight general practice clinicians, and seven specialist DVA staff), alongside observation of eight remote training sessions. Analysis was conducted using a framework approach.

Results
Remote DVA training in UK general practice widened access to learners. However, it may have reduced learner engagement compared with face-to-face training and may challenge safeguarding of remote learners who are domestic abuse survivors. DVA training is integral to the partnership between general practice and specialist DVA services, and reduced engagement risks weakening this partnership.

Conclusion
The authors recommend a hybrid DVA training model for general practice, including remote information delivery alongside a structured face-to-face element. This has broader relevance for other specialist services providing training and education in primary care.
Effect of annealing ambient on SiGe layer formation using Al–Ge paste for III–V solar cell application
Authors: Suzuki Shota , Matsubara Moeko , Minamiyama Hideaki , Dhamrin Marwan , Uraoka Yukiharu 
Published: May 2023

Abstract
A mixed paste of aluminum (Al) and germanium (Ge) (7:3) was prepared and screen-printed on silicon (Si) substrates, followed by annealing at a peak temperature of 1000 °C in an IR rapid thermal annealing furnace to investigate the liquid-phase growth of silicon–germanium (SiGe) epitaxial layers. The gas ambient during annealing was changed to investigate the effect on SiGe layer quality and physical properties. The SiGe formed samples were observed by scanning electron microscopy and energy dispersive X-ray spectroscopy. Oxygen-containing atmosphere suppressed the SiGe layer formation by oxidizing the Al particle surface, limiting the reaction of the particle to the Si surface. On the other hand, annealing in an argon atmosphere without oxygen resulted in the formation of SiGe layers with a thickness of over 30 μm.

Abstract
While the formation of a GaO
x
interlayer is key to achieving SiO2/GaN interfaces with low defect density, positive fixed charge is rather easily generated through the reduction of GaO
x
layer if the annealing conditions are not properly designed. In this study, we minimized the unstable GaO
x
layer by sputter SiO2 deposition. Negligible GaO
x
growth was confirmed by synchrotron radiation X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy, even when post-deposition oxygen annealing up to 600 °C was performed. A MOS device with negligible capacitance–voltage hysteresis, stable flat-band voltage, and low leakage current was demonstrated by performing oxygen and forming gas annealing at temperatures of 600 °C and 400 °C, respectively.

Abstract
We demonstrate printed organic Schottky diodes for the rectification of the 13.56 MHz near-field communication carrier wave. Printed silver electrodes covered with a self-assembled monolayer of 4-methylbenzenethiol were employed for the Schottky barrier. Optimizing the conditions of the self-assembled monolayer treatment was performed to improve the rectification ratio to 106 and the forward current density to 1 A cm−2. Finally, organic half-wave and full-wave rectifiers were demonstrated with a high-frequency response of output rectifying voltage of more than 5 V at 13.56 MHz.

At this time, podcasts have become a trend in Indonesia. Many content creators to influencers create content based on radio broadcasts or commonly known as podcasts. The audience feels interested in this content because there is an interesting discussion process that is presented in a relaxed manner. Podcast is one of the content media that has received a lot of public attention. Because it seems more flexible and intense when compared to radio broadcasts in general. For example CBC Radio One, Pod.me, BBC and so on. At this time, it's not only the big broadcasting media that can host podcasts, but you can be one of the people who can host podcasts. Based on the above problems, the solution is to design a UI/UX application and a podcast platform website called SOUNDS using Human Centered HCD Design. HCD is an approach that focuses on all potential users of information systems or not being the object of trials in the data collection process and evaluation process on website information systems that are being designed to create the SOUNDS podcast platform to improve display quality and user attractiveness.
