description: Background: In response to the novel coronavirus disease (COVID-19) pandemic, Australia introduced public health and physical distancing restrictions in late March 2020. We investigated the impact of these restrictions on HIV preexposure prophylaxis (PrEP) use among Australian gay and bisexual men (GBM). Methods: Participants in an ongoing online cohort study previously reported PrEP use from 2014 to 2019. In April 2020, 847 HIVnegative and untested participants completed questionnaires assessing changes in PrEP use as a result of COVID-19 public health measures. Binary logistic multiple regression was used to estimate adjusted odds ratios (aOR) and 95% confidence intervals (95% CI) to compare changes in PrEP use behaviors. Results: Among 847 men, mean age was 44.1 years (SD: 12.7). PrEP use rose from 4.9% in 2015 to 47.2% in 2020. Among those, 41.8% (n = 167) discontinued PrEP use during COVID-19 restrictions. Discontinuing PrEP during COVID-19 restrictions was independently associated with being less likely to have recently tested for HIV (aOR: 0.17; 95% CI: 0.09 to 0.34; P , 0.001) and less likely to report sex with casual partners (aOR: 0.28; 95% CI: 0.14 to 0.54; P , 0.001). Conclusions: By April 2020, following the introduction of COVID-19 restrictions, GBM dramatically reduced PrEP use, coinciding with a reduction in sexual activity. Longer-term impacts of COVID-19 restrictions on sexual behaviors among GBM need to be monitored because they may foreshadow fluctuations in prevention coverage and risk of HIV infection. Our findings indicate a potential need for clear, targeted information about resumption of PrEP and on-demand optimal dosing regimens in response to ongoing changes in restrictions.
I’m Just Not Wired That Way: Self-Understanding Through Technomorphism

description: “I don’t have enough bandwidth for that” or “I need to recharge.” Such metaphors that draw on elements of technology to describe our human experience have become common in our everyday English language. In the face of contemporary conversations of merging with AI, I examine what such metaphors teach us about our own human condition through closer inspection of what we say and don’t say through technomorphism (also sometimes called mechanomorphism). In the end, I suggest that while these metaphors reflect different parts of ourselves in the mirror of our digital age technologies, the
qualitative differences of where the metaphor breaks down are essential for us to keep in mind going into the future.

L'HARMONIE DES ORGUES. SUONI, CORPI E SENSAZIONI NEL PENSIERO MUSICALE DI DESCARTES

description: The importance of Ren� Descartes's (1596-1650) metaphysics, physics and methodology is common knowledge in the Humanities: the author of the revolutionary Discours sur la m�thode (1637) is universally celebrated as the father of modern Rationalism. Therefore, since the second part of the XVII Century, all cartesian interests and studies were focused on the Meditationes de prima philosophia (1641) and the Principia philosophiae (1644), the most philosophically pregnant Descartes's works. On the contrary, his ideas about music and sound theory, developed in the Compendium musicae (1618) and in the Correspondence (mostly in the letter exchanges with Marin Mersenne in the 1630's), were generally considered a back burner research area. In 1907 the author of the first monography on this subject, Andr� Pirro (A. Pirro, Descartes et la musique, Paris 1907), actually accused the french philosopher of carelessness about sonorous and auditive phaenomena. The historical studies on cartesian music dramatically increased in the last decades of the XX Century mainly thanks to Fr�deric de Buzon's survey (F. De Buzon, Descartes, Beeckman et l?acoustique, �Archives de philosophie�, 4 BC X, 1981; Sympathie et antipathie dans le Compendium Musicae, �Archives de philosophie�, XLVI, 1983; Fonctions de la m�moire dans les trait�s th�oriques au XVII si�cle, �Revue de musicologie�, 76/2, 1990). These researches highlighted the prominent role played by the music theory in the constitution of the Descartes's greatest philosophy.
Moving from these studies, recently revived in Bologna by Paolo Gozza (author of the crucial article Una matematica rinascimentale: la musica di Descartes, �Il saggiatore musicale�, II/2, 1995), my PhD thesis has two principal aims: (i) To reconstruct the Descartes's musical thought, scattered in a disorganic way, throught his whole production; (ii) To utilize the conception of human being that emerges from Descartes's music theory as a test for the anthropology described in the metaphysical works. Descartes's music theory offers a theorical direction to clarify this problem and suggests a potential answer. Since the early Compendium musicae, the music creation and perception are described as homogeneous actions that implicate a mind-body cooperation. The human being can play an instrument, sing, listen music, dance only because he is deeply unitary: it is composed by a third nature (different by mind and body too) that upsets the dualism rules. Cartesian music depicts an organic anti-dualist and anti-rationalist man in a rigid sense. Therefore and lastly, I claim that this research on Descartes's music thought is useful not only to enrich the studies on cartesian anthropology, but also to definitively eject the common mismatch on the Ren� Descartes philosophy as a monolithic and ingenuous rationalism.

description: Objective To evaluate the relation between solar elastosis and tumor mutation burden (TMB) in a large clinically annotated cohort of stage II and III melanoma patients. Methods Primary cutaneous melanomas from 469 AJCC (8th edition) stage II and III patients with clinical annotation including outcome at 5 years of diagnosis were histopathologically evaluated for solar elastosis. Next-generation sequencing assay MSK-IMPACTTM was employed to determine TMB. Analysis by Fisher’s exact test, chi-square, and Kruskal-Wallis were performed, as well as uni- and multivariate logistic regression. Results Tumors stratified by low and high TMB showed marked and statistically significant differences in presence and extent of associated solar elastosis. Lower risk patient stage (II versus III by AJCC 8th edition) as well as better 5-year melanomaspecific survival (as binary variable of controls-survivors versus cases-dead of disease at 5 years of diagnosis) were associated with severe solar elastosis. On univariate and multivariate logistic regression models, severe solar elastosis predicted significantly decreased odds of dying of melanoma within 5 years of diagnosis (OR 0.60, 95% CI 0.39-0.89; and OR 0.42, 95% CI 0.20-0.83, respectively; both p<0.05) Conclusion The association of solar elastosis to TMB and 5-year melanoma specific survival points to its potential as a biomarker of clinical relevance that can be assessed by routine histopathology.

description: Objectives. To characterize regulatory practices related to nonmedical cannabis warning labels in states across the United States that have legalized retail nonmedical cannabis. Methods. In March 2024, we conducted a content analysis of regulations for nonmedical cannabis warning labels required on product packages in 20 states where, as of March 2024, adults could legally purchase nonmedical cannabis in retail environments. For each state, we examined requirements related to warning label content and characteristics. Results. Required warning label content and characteristics varied widely across states. Only 2 states required a warning about mental health risks (10%) and 2 states required a warning for high potency products on risk of psychosis (10%). No states required front-of-package warning placement, only 2 states required rotating warnings (10%), and 4 states required contrasting colors (20%). Warnings were often verbose (mean = 57 words), vague, and had small or no minimum font size. Conclusions. Opportunities exist for states to improve the alignment of their nonmedical cannabis warning label regulations with evidence that has been generated so far in cannabis effects, cannabis warning efficacy, and warning label design.

description: Background Artificial intelligence (AI) uses in healthcare changed dramatically with large language models. While work is underway to integrate generative AI safely and effectively into medical practice, little is known about how resident physicians are already using these tools in their work. Objectives To characterize the current usage patterns and attitudes towards large language models among internal medicine residents in North Carolina. Methods Cross-sectional survey-based study of Internal medicine residents in North Carolina.Results152 of 523 total residents completed the survey (29% response rate). Many identified a role for LLMs in both clinical (56%) and non-clinical medicine (72%) today, although only 26% reported current use. More perceived a future role in clinical (71%) and non-clinical (80%) medicine. None had received formal training, but 94% expressed interest in learning more and 87% thought residencies maybe or definitely should have formal curriculum. Top clinical uses include forming a differential diagnosis, researching treatments, and creating educational materials. Top non-clinical uses included self-directed learning, scientific writing, and summarizing literature. Conclusions Medical educators and administrators should be aware that residents are using generative AI in professional settings. Residents believe in a current and future role for AI in medicine and desire curriculum and learning opportunities during training.

description: Background & aims: Guidelines for reducing postprandial blood glucose concentrations include avoiding high glycemic index (GI) foods, such as white potatoes. However, GI testing is often undertaken in the morning with foods consumed in isolation by non-clinical cohorts. We investigated the impact of potato preparation and consumption as part of a mixed-evening meal on postprandial and nocturnal glycemic responses, and postprandial insulin response, in individuals with Type 2 Diabetes Mellitus (T2DM). Methods: In a randomized, cross-over design, 24 males and females (age 58.3 ± 9.3 y; BMI: 31.7 ± 6.8 kg/m ) with T2DM (diet or metformin controlled) completed four experimental trials after consuming a standardized breakfast (25% daily energy intake (EI)) and lunch (35% EI). Dinner (40% EI) was consumed at 1800 h being either: 1) boiled potato (BOIL); 2) roasted potato (ROAST); 3) boiled potato cooled for 24 h (COOLED); or 4) basmati rice (CONTROL). Each meal contained 50% carbohydrate, 30% fat and 20% protein. Blood samples were collected prior to, immediately post meal and at 30-min intervals for a further 120 min. A continuous glucose monitor was worn to assess nocturnal interstitial glucose concentrations. Results: No differences were detected in postprandial venous glucose area under the curve (iAUC) between CONTROL and all three potato conditions. Postprandial insulin iAUC was greater following COOLED compared to CONTROL (P = 0.003; 95% CI: 18.9–111.72 miU/mL). No significant differences between CONTROL and BOIL or ROAST were detected for postprandial insulin concentrations. All potato meals resulted in lower nocturnal glucose AUC than CONTROL (P < 0.001; 95% CI 4.15–15.67 mmol/L x h). Conclusion: Compared to an isoenergetic rice meal, boiled, roasted or boiled then cooled potato-based meals were not associated with unfavourable postprandial glucose responses or nocturnal glycemic control, and can be considered suitable for individuals with T2DM when consumed as part of a mixed-evening meal.

description: Professionals make decisions, problem-solve through experience, skill, and cognition, while providing a unique community service. For the government employed professional teacher, professional associations, standards, identity and their employer contribute to professional development (PD). Meanwhile, continuous PD, or professional lifelong learning, enables PD beyond maintenance of currency - sufficiency - to provide impetus for forward movement of professions through innovation. The balanced scorecard (BSC) has international use in organisations and education to reduce the gap between vision and reality.Understandings of key PD aspects suggest that the BSC might align to provide a framework for PD. This article discusses the BSC for teacher PD applied in Victorian government schools, Australia, and rationalises why it was only implemented for a year.

Subjects: Uncategorized

description: © 2020 Elsevier Inc. Finite elemen model for the structural behaviours of bi-directional (2D) FG porous microbeams based on a quasi-3D theory and the modified strain gradient theory (MSGT) is presented. As the main novelty of this study, in order to capture accurately the size effects, the MSGT is employed with three material length scale parameters (MLSPs) rather than the modifed couple stress theory (MCST) with only one MLSP. The material properties including three MLSPs are varied in both the axial and thickness directions as well as porosity. By using a quasi-3D theory, which inludes normal and shear deformations, the governing equations for static, vibration and buckling analysis are derived and solved by Hermite-cubic beam element for various boundary conditions. Through numerical examples, effects of variable MLSP and porosity as well as gradient index in two directions on the deflections, natural frequencies and buckling loads of 2D FG porous microbeams are examined.

Hereditary risk in malignant mesothelioma

Publisher: name: Universit� degli Studi del Piemonte Orientale Amedeo Avogadro
Year: 2021

description: Malignant mesothelioma (MM) is a rare and aggressive cancer caused by asbestos exposure.
MM has a long latency period (>20 years) and the median survival is 9-18 months after diagnosis. Presently, no biomarkers are recommended for MM.
A genetic predisposition was supposed since only 10-17% of individuals highly exposed to asbestos develop MM and some families present multiple MM cases. Germline variants in BAP1 are responsible for an inherited cancer syndrome that includes MM in its cancer constellation. Only 6-7% of familial MM carry BAP1 germline pathogenic variants (PVs), suggesting that other genes may predispose to MM. We and others demonstrated that ~10% of MM patients carried PVs in cancer-predisposing genes, mostly in homologous recombination repair (HRR) genes.
My PhD studies aimed to: investigate the prevalence of germline PVs in BAP1 and other cancer-predisposing genes in MM patients, identify early non-invasive prognostic biomarkers by DNA methylation analysis.
We found that the prevalence of BAP1 germline PVs in 56 patients with familial MM was 7.1%.
We analysed 113 MM patients by targeted next-generation sequencing: 13 patients carried germline PVs in cancer-predisposing genes, especially in HRR genes. We assessed the quantification of asbestos exposure including patients of this study and those reported in previous work by our group and found a statistically significant lower asbestos exposure in PV carriers than in non-mutated patients (p=0.0005). These data suggest that patients with defects in DNA repair genes are less proficient at repairing the DNA damage induced by asbestos and show increased susceptibility to asbestos-induced MM. They may benefit from drugs that induce synthetic lethality.
Finally, we investigated DNA methylation profile in 159 MM cases, identifying the hypomethylation of FKBP5. This gene has been found deregulated in several cancer tissues and associated with chemoresistance.
Efficient machine learning models for prediction of concrete strengths

description: © 2020 Elsevier Ltd In this study, an efficient implementation of machine learning models to predict compressive and tensile strengths of high-performance concrete (HPC) is presented. Four predictive algorithms including support vector regression (SVR), multilayer perceptron (MLP), gradient boosting regressor (GBR), and extreme gradient boosting (XGBoost) are employed. The process of hyperparameter tuning is based on random search that results in trained models with better predictive performances. In addition, the missing data is handled by filling with the mean of the available data which allows more information to be used in the training process. The results on two popular datasets of compressive and tensile strengths of high performance concrete show significant improvement of the current approach in terms of both prediction accuracy and computational effort. The comparative studies reveal that, for this particular prediction problem, the trained models based on GBR and XGBoost perform better than those of SVR and MLP.

Exploring the measure of potentially avoidable general practitioner-type presentations to the emergency department in regional Queensland using linked, patient-perspective data

description: © 2020 Journal Compilation Objective: To explore measures of potentially avoidable general practitioner (PAGP)-type presentations to the emergency department (ED) of a large regional hospital in northern Queensland. Methods: Linkage of an ED administrative dataset to a face-to-face patient survey of local residents (n = 1000); calculation of Australian Institute of Health and Welfare (AIHW) and Australasian College of Emergency Medicine (ACEM) measures of PAGP-type presentations to the ED; and exploration of these measures with patient-perspective linked data. Results: PAGP-type presenters to the ED were younger in age (median age in years: total cohort: 49; AIHW 38, P < 0.001; ACEM 36, P < 0.001); with the odds of having a chronic condition being less likely for AIHW PAGP-type presenters than other ED presenters (OR (95% CI) 0.54 (0.38-0.77): P = 0.001)) after adjustment for age. PAGP-type presenters nominated reasons of convenience rather than urgency as their rationale for attending the ED, irrespective of measure. The number of PAGP-type presentations to the ED identified by the AIHW measure was more than three-fold higher than the ACEM measure (AIHW: n = 227; ACEM: n = 67). Influencing factors include the low proportion of ED attendees who had a medical consultation time of <1 h at this hospital site (1-month survey period: 17.8%); and differences between the patient self-report and ED administrative record for 'self-referral to the ED' (Self-referred: Survey 71% vs EDIS 93%, P < 0.001). Conclusions: Identification of PAGP-type presentations to the ED could be enhanced with improvements to the quality of administrative processes when recording patient 'self-referral to the ED', along with further consideration of hospital site variation for the length of medical consultation time. What is known about the topic?: PAGP-type presentations to the ED are an Australian National Healthcare Agreement progress indicator. Methods of measuring this indicator have been under review since 2012 and debate remains on how to accurately determine the measure. What does this paper add?: By using patient perspective-linked data to explore different measures of PAGP-type presentations to EDs, this paper identifies issues with measure elements and suggests ways to improve these measures. What are the implications for practitioners?: Measure elements of patient 'self-referral to the ED' and 'medical consultation time' require further consideration if they are to be used to measure PAGP-type presentations to the ED.

‘No sugar’, ‘no junk food’, ‘do more exercise’ – moving beyond simple messages to improve the health of Aboriginal women with Hyperglycaemia in Pregnancy in the Northern Territory – A phenomenological study

description: © 2020 The Authors Background: Globally, rates of hyperglycaemia in pregnancy are highest among Indigenous women. The highest prevalence has been documented among Aboriginal women in the Northern Territory of Australia. Despite knowledge of this for over two decades, there has been very limited examination of the specific needs and experiences of Aboriginal women regarding this condition. Question: How do Aboriginal women with hyperglycaemia in pregnancy understand and experience this condition, and how can their care be improved? Methods: A phenomenological methodology underpinned semi-structured in-depth interviews with 35 Aboriginal women and seven health professionals across the Northern Territory. Data were inductively analysed. Findings: The findings revealed that in general, participants in this study could recite simple health messaging regarding diabetes (e.g. ‘no sugar’), but many lacked in-depth knowledge and this affected the management of their condition. Nevertheless, many identified pregnancy as a powerful motivator for change, signalling scope to improve health messaging. Women consistently expressed the need for diabetes education that was culturally appropriate, a clear desire for maternity care that was family-centred, based on respectful relationships with the same care provider, and respected Aboriginal ways of knowing and being. Conclusion: Existing health messaging around hyperglycaemia in pregnancy has limited reach with Aboriginal women in the Northern Territory. Reducing the burden of hyperglycaemia in pregnancy among these women requires a sustained commitment to redesign of maternity and diabetes care to incorporate the cultural and social context of women's lives.
