description: Background: The COVID-19 pandemic presented unprecedented challenges, particularly for vulnerable populations residing in confined settings such as refugee shelters: Physical distancing measures were challenging to implement in shelters due to shared rooms or communal use of kitchens and sanitary facilities, which increased the risk of infections. Meanwhile, individuals’ capabilities for individual protection strategies were severely impaired by the structure of the shelters. Consequently, shelters had the duty to develop and implement strategies for the prevention and handling of SARS-CoV-2 infections. The aim of this study was to explore the perspectives of refugees, NGO employees, and shelter directors regarding COVID-19-related measures in German refugee shelters. The study aimed to identify challenges and conflicts arising from implemented measures, as well as expectations for improved support during the pandemic. Methods: Semi-structured and narrative interviews were conducted with 6 refugees, 6 facility managers, 12 NGO staff, and 2 social service agency staff from February to August 2022. Qualitative content analysis was employed to analyze the data, identifying overarching themes and codes. Results: The study uncovered challenges and conflicts resulting from pandemic measures, particularly mass quarantine orders, within refugee shelters. Lack of transparency and ineffective communication worsened tensions, with refugees feeling distressed and anxious. The quarantine experience had a negative impact on refugees’ mental health, which was exacerbated by limited social interaction and leisure-time activities. Shelter managers encountered administrative challenges when implementing measures due to facility constraints and limited resources, while NGO employees encountered obstacles in providing immediate assistance due to legal regulations and a lack of cooperation from shelter managers. Conclusions: The study highlights that shelters are problematic institutions from a public health perspective. It shows the importance of implementing customized pandemic interventions in refugee shelters that take account of the diverse needs and experiences of both refugee and staff. To achieve this, we recommend to establish an ethics committee and involve various stakeholders in decision-making processes. Additionally, enhancing information dissemination to promote transparency and public understanding of measures is crucial. These insights can help develop comprehensive and effective pandemic plans for refugee shelters, ensuring better preparedness for future public health crises.

description: Invasive growth is a critical process in tumor progression, requiring the activation of various molecular processes in tumor cells at the invasive front. Intercellular communication between heterogeneous tumor cells enhances cellular activation and adaptation to specific microenvironments. One mechanism of intercellular communication is the delivery of miRNAs through tumor cell-derived extracellular vesicles (EVs). In this context we have observed that conditioned media from a highly invasive cell subpopulation (BLM-HI) enhances the invasive capacity of the parental cell line (BLM). Therefore, we hypothesized that this complex change of cellular behavior is influenced by EV-transported miRNAs. The treatment of BLM cells with EVs derived from BLM-HI cells resulted in a significantly enhanced invasive capacity, as observed in Matrigel-embedded spheroids and in 2D Boyden chamber assays, with a dose-dependent effect. Conversely, the invasive capacity of BLM cells was reduced when secretion of EVs was inhibited by a sphingomyelinase inhibitor. To investigate the molecular mechanisms behind this effect, we performed next-generation sequencing and identified an enrichment of miR-1246 in these EVs. In functional analyses we demonstrated that both the EV mediated delivery of miR-1246 as well as overexpression contributes to the enhanced invasiveness of BLM cells. We identified a binding site of miR-1246 in the 3’UTR of cyclin G2 (CCNG2) and demonstrated direct binding by a luciferase reporter assay. Increased expression of CCNG2 has been associated with cancer metastasis and poor patient outcomes in other malignancies. Our study demonstrates that intercellular communication contributes to the transfer of properties, such as increased invasive capacity, between heterogeneous melanoma cells via EV-transported miRNAs.

description: Membrane technology use for subsurface irrigation is based on the principle that water movement across membranes responds to the water potential difference between water behind the membrane and the environment on the permeate side. Therefore, the understanding of the effects of naturally variable environmental factors such soil type, water quality and plant water demand, as well as controlled factors, such as membrane type, is important. This study summarises up to date knowledge on how these factors affect the membrane irrigation performance. Different types of membrane, nanofiltration NF270 (NF), reverse osmosis BW30 (RO) and forward osmosis FO8040 (FO-TFC), were tested during green bean successfully up to yield production, with yield quality accessed using isotope composition analysis. Irrigation response to soil particle distribution (sand content) and its effect on soil hydration and plant survival were considered. Observations of daily plant water uptake variation in response to changes in temperature and relative humidity, and contrasting levels of water quality (0.2 and 3.1 dS/m) were also included. Increase in sand content negatively affected initial soil hydration, which varied 50% when sand content increased from 0% (1.5 mm/d) to 60% (0.7 mm/d). Plant germination was also negatively affected, presenting a decrease of 30% with sand content increase, however, seedlings water uptake only showed a 20% decrease, showing a differentiated and more efficient root/membrane interaction than soil. Plants water uptake across membrane varied daily according to weather conditions, from a minimum of 1 mm/d (26.6oC) to a maximum of 3.7 mm/d (31.7oC) over 15 days. For a longer experiment, yield differed significantly between treatments. The FO-TFC (5.8 ton/ha) was superior to both NF (2.3 ton/ha) and RO (1.6 ton/ha). The most negative pod carbon isotope content was observed for the FO-TFC, possibly due to less water limitation. For the water use efficiency for the harvested yield, both FO-TFC (14.6 kg/m3) and NF (14.7 kg/m3) were statistically equivalent and superior to RO (11 kg/m3). To summarize, up to date results indicates that coarse soils, due to their lower matric potential, would result in lower water uptake that can potentially affect germination. Similarly, increase in water salinity negatively affects water transport. Competitive green bean yields have been obtained with the FO-TFC membrane, with adequate nitrogen and carbon isotope content. Thus, results demonstrate the feasibility of the membrane based subsurface irrigation from germination to yield formation.

description: Background: Although cancer incidence and mortality are rising in Ethiopia, lay and health professional perceptions of the disease remain limited. Objective: To explore perceptions of cancer, including its causes, signs and symptoms, and transmission within a rural community in Ethiopia. Methods: We conducted a qualitative study in four rural neighbourhoods of Butajira in central Ethiopia. Seven Focus Group Discussions (FGDs) and six In-Depth Interviews (IDIs) were held with community members, women representatives, religious leaders and key informants using two interview guides (divided by method). Behaviour change theories and a community research framework were used to summarize the findings. Results: Across respondent categories and data collection methods, respondents described cancer or nekersa, which translates as ‘an illness that cannot be cured’, as serious and fatal. Cancer was further viewed as becoming more common and as underpinning more deaths particularly among women. Causes of cancer largely focused on individual behaviours namely mitch (referring to exposure to sunlight), poor personal hygiene and urinating on the ground/dirty areas. Almost all participants strongly related cancer to a wound that does not heal and entails a foul-smelling discharge. Bleeding and weight loss were other commonly mentioned complaints of cancer. Conclusions: Although cancer is known among rural communities in this area, misconceptions about cancer aetiology and conflation of the signs and symptoms of cancer versus other diseases merit health messaging. Our study calls for design research to determine how to culturally tailor educational materials and deliver health campaigns regarding cancer causes, signs and symptoms within this context.

description: The study analyses the importance of the pharmacy environment for the purchase decision of non-prescription pharmacy products. In this context, the basics of the purchase decision and environment perception as well as the current state of research are explained. Hypotheses are derived on the basis of a thematically modified model according to Starker et al. (2023). The elevation took place in a specially designed laboratory experiment in which the participants (N = 42) edited on a purchase decision task in two environments with a focus on acoustic, visual and olfactory stimuli. By means of a questionnaire, particular consideration was given to the identification of emotional aspects. The results show connections of the environment with a variety of emotions and with some product-specific elements. Limitations exist especially with regard to the specificity of the pharmacy environment and the representativeness of the results. These limitations, as well as the variation of the task type and the collection of additional influences, can represent opportunities for further research approaches. Recommendations regarding the pharmacy environment are drawn from the research results.

description: There has been extensive research on terrestrial carbon and the different conditions where it is a source or sink. In constrast, research on natural groundwater organic matter (OM) is limited. Biological processing is one of the factors governing the characteristics of groundwater OM. Here, we compare the microbial degradation rate of groundwater biodegradable dissolved organic carbon (BDOC) from a variety of groundwater environments (in NSW, Australia) such as coastal sands, alluvial sediments and fractured-rock aquifers. Each site also has potential recharge from an adjacent surface water body (streams and wetlands). 0.22 µm filtered groundwater was mixed with 10 mL of unfiltered sample (as innoculum) and incubated in the dark in the presence of O2 at 20°C. Subsamples were collected after filtration (0.22 µm) on Day 0, 3, 7, 14, 21 and 28 and analysed using size-exclusion chromatography-organic carbon detection (LC-OCD), which allows the quantification of DOC concentration and five molecular weight fractions including biopolymers (BP >>20,000 g/mol), humic substances (HS ~1000 g/mol), building blocks (BB 300-500 g/mol), low molecular weight neutrals (LMWN <350 g/mol) and low molecular weight acids (LMWA 350 g/mol) as well as providing measures of humic substance aromaticity and relative molecular weight. The overall results showed that HS fraction was the dominant fraction of DOC pool ranking from (13-65%), in which greater fraction was observed in surface water and lower in alluvial and facture rock aquifer. After 28 days of incubation, the biological processing of DOC ranged from 1-59%. LMWN was the only size fraction that was significantly biodegraded over the incubation period (10-86%) in the samples from alluvial and fractured-rock aquifer while same trend was not observed in sandy aquifer. Slightly lower LMWN reduction in surface water was observed compared to that in alluvial and fractured-rock aquifer.

description: Title: The role of dissolved organic matter and groundwater biogeophysical processes in the carbon budget. Phetdala Oudone , , Christopher E. Marjo , Karina Meredith , Liza McDonough1,2, Helen Rutlidge2, , Martin S Andersen2,5, Denis O`Carroll2,5, Andy Baker1,2. Atmospheric CO2 concentration is acknowledged to play an important role in climate change. However, quantifying more accurate predictions requires a sound understanding of the cycle and process of carbon especially in the environment. There has been extensive research on terrestrial carbon and the different conditions where it is a source or sink. However, the knowledge on whether groundwater organic matter is a carbon source or sink is limited. This work will explore the dynamic of groundwater organic matter including both its concentration and its rate and extent of biological processing and sorption. The UNSW Wellington Research Station was selected for groundwater sampling as it represents a fractured rock aquifer and alluvial aquifer for groundwater property and interaction investigation. Samples were collected from a transect of boreholes perpendicular from the river. Literature procedures were adopted for determining biological dissolved organic carbon and investigation of organic matter sorption on pure minerals (quartz sand, iron-coated quartz sand and calcium carbonate). For each sample collected total dissolved organic concentration was measured and the organic matter present was characterized by fluorescence spectroscopy and size-exclusion chromatographic technique, LC-OCD. There was greater sorption of organic matter with calcium carbonate, followed by iron-coated sand, while minimum sorption was observed with sand. This research in conjunction with similar studies in different environments will allow conclusions to be drawn groundwater organic matter and whether it is a carbon source or sink and thereby the findings can eventually have some policy application which will enable the management of the groundwater resources as part of the carbon economy.

description: Objectives: We present the ‘COVID-19 evidence ecosystem’ (CEOsys) as a German network to inform pandemic management and to support clinical and public health decision-making. We discuss challenges faced when organizing the ecosystem and derive lessons learned for similar networks acting during pandemics or health-related crises. Study Design and Setting: Bringing together 18 university hospitals and additional institutions, CEOsys key activities included research prioritization, conducting living systematic reviews (LSRs), supporting evidence-based (living) guidelines, knowledge translation (KT), detecting research gaps, and deriving recommendations, backed by technical infrastructure and capacity building. Results: CEOsys rapidly produced 31 high-quality evidence syntheses and supported three living guidelines on COVID-19-related topics, while also developing methodological procedures. Challenges included CEOsys’ late initiation in relation to the pandemic outbreak, the delayed prioritization of research questions, the continuously evolving COVID-19-related evidence, and establishing a technical infrastructure. Methodological-clinical tandems, the cooperation with national guideline groups and international collaborations were key for efficiency. Conclusion: CEOsys provided a proof-of-concept for a functioning evidence ecosystem at the national level. Lessons learned include that similar networks should, among others, involve methodological and clinical key stakeholders early on, aim for (inter)national collaborations, and systematically evaluate their value. We particularly call for a sustainable network.

description: Carbon plays a crucial role for all biological systems on Earth and for regulating the atmospheric heat budget. For instance, in the subsurface organic carbon is the ultimate electron donor for microbially mediated redox-process. Despite the size of the global groundwater store the processes controlling the natural dissolved organic carbon (DOC) in groundwater are poorly understood. This ARC Discovery project aims to answer the question: under what conditions groundwater DOC is a source or sink for carbon? and quantify processes that control concentration and character of DOC. The question will be answered via sampling of various subsurface environments and laboratory experiments of biodegradation and sorption. Samples from field, sorption and biodegradation experiments were analysed by Liquid Chromatography-Organic Carbon Detection (LC-OCD), a chromatography technique separating DOC into five fractions based on mass, plus a hydrophobic fraction. The results show that groundwater DOC concentrations are significantly lower than terrestrial (soil, sediment and river) concentrations indicating that DOC fluxes towards the subsurface are attenuated by sorption to minerals and/or biologically processed. The experiments show that the humics fraction is predominately adsorbing onto mineral surfaces and low-molecular weight neutrals (LMW-N) are predominantly being biodegraded. For field samples the humics fraction is more abundant in the total DOC than LMW-N. We therefore infer that sorption is more dominant than biological degradation. Changing environmental conditions could lead to a release of adsorbed carbon. The results will provide better understanding of the role of DOC for subsurface processes and inform guidelines for the management of groundwater resources.

description: Background: Depressive disorders are associated with alterations in brain function, affecting processes such as affective and reward processing and emotion regulation. However, the influence of Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) on the neuronal patterns remains inadequately understood. Therefore, this review systematically summarizes longitudinal fMRI brain activity changes in depressive patients treated with CBT and their association with symptom remission. Methods: This systematic review was conducted according to the PRISMA statement. Out of 2149 results of the literature search, N = 14 studies met the inclusion criteria (e.g., diagnosis of a current depressive disorder, assessment of longitudinal task-based fMRI, and the analysis of functional changes before and after CBT). Results: The findings reveal (1) diminished limbic reactivity following CBT across various tasks, (2) increased striatal activity during reward processing, but decreased activity during affective processing and future thinking, and (3) alterations in cingulate and prefrontal cortex activity across tasks. Partially, these results are associated with symptom remission, especially in the subgenual anterior cingulate cortex. Limitations: There are heterogenous results especially in cortical areas that might partially be due to methodological issues like differences across the studies in terms of task content, statistical evaluation, and interventions. Thus, future research should focus on the standardization of methodologies. Conclusions: The results indicate that CBT partially normalizes the neural patterns of depressive patients, particularly within regions involved in affective and reward processing and the development of negative cognitive biases. Overall, potential neural mechanisms underlying CBT were identified, underscoring its effectiveness on an objective neurobiological basis.

description: Background/Objectives As anyone working in the health sector knows housing is a determinant of health. Australia’s Close the Gap policy, established under coalition of government (COAG) agreement in 2009, aims to reduce child mortality as a key measure. One of this measure’s indicators is birthweight. We asked the question: ‘How does the changing physical and policy landscape in housing impact on the decisions Aboriginal women make for themselves and their children?’ of The Gudaga suite of studies, set in the Tharawal community in Campbelltown in South Western Sydney following Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander children from birth to 9½ years, and internationally unique in an urban location in a major settler-nation metropolis, is that maternal vulnerability had a cumulative impact on birthweight. It is a big picture look at the landscape that the Gudaga studies inform and are informed by and contributes to an understanding of why Australia is failing to achieve the measures it set itself to Close the Gap in life expectancy between Aboriginal people and the rest of Australia and what housing support is required for mothers of Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander children. Methods The data were collected from the ‘GUDAGA study” – a birth cohort of n=149 Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander children recruited in 2005-2007. Through best practice methods for research in an Aboriginal community, using semi-structured interviews with an Aboriginal project officer, carer provided information about Housing and its related issues. Data was analysing using SPSS. Results The housing market has been experiencing major instability for vast numbers of people in western economies. By the Close the Gap policy deadline in 2031, the housing undersupply in New South Wales is projected to be 91,000 dwellings if current conditions prevail. That’s a little more than a decade from now. The Gudaga children will be in their early 20s. The Gudaga data shows that households with Aboriginal children are in a precarious situation in a market-driven, volatile economy: birth rates at younger age, unfinished education, high unemployment, high smoking prevalence as a contributor to low birth weight, high mobility (moving house) and the biggest complaint: repairs and maintenance Discussion A clear sustainable plan needs to develop for housing policy for improving health and health related well-being indicators.
