Evaluating the feasibility, cost savings and outcomes of a comprehensive electronic pathology record to inform clinical decisions: An Australian pilot study

Marshall Makate, Oliver Waters, David Lim, James H. Boyd, Suzanne Robinson

Background: In Australia, a patient’s pathology results are held in separate provider systems, so clinicians often cannot see a full testing history during a consultation, which delays decisions and drives unnecessary repeat testing. Point-of-care access to a complete pathology record has been proposed as a remedy, but its feasibility and effect in routine outpatient practice remain poorly established. Objective: To evaluate whether point-of-care access to a patient’s complete pathology history is feasible and whet …

Perceptions, Barriers and Pathways Forward: A Scoping Review of CALD Participation in Australian Clinical Trials

Thy Vuong, Manju Daniel, Krishna Lambert

ABSTRACT Background Equitable participation in clinical trials is essential for ensuring that research evidence is scientifically robust, ethically just and representative of the populations it is intended to serve. In Australia, culturally and linguistically diverse (CALD) populations remain underrepresented in clinical trials despite increasing national policy attention to equity and inclusion. This review synthesized empirical evidence and Australian policy and practice documents to examine factors influencing C …

If you build it, they will stay! Sustaining evidence-based practices for the treatment of substance use disorders through investment in workforce retention

Michael J. Chaple, Sara Becker, Thomas E. Freese, Bryan Hartzler, Rosemarie Martin, Todd Molfenter, Beth A. Rutkowski

Much attention has been paid to the persistent gap between the development of effective, evidence-based practices (EBPs) for substance use disorders (SUDs) and their routine delivery in real-world clinical and community settings. The struggle to routinely implement and sustain EBPs with fidelity has been attributed to a combination of systemic, organizational and provider-level barriers. These barriers are compounded by high rates of staff turnover, as behavioral health systems must continuously reinvest in profess …

Preprosthetic vestibuloplasty performed by three different types of lasers versus conventional scalpel

Diana Florina Nica, Ciprian Ioan Roi, Mircea Rivis, Virgil-Florin Duma, Cosmin Sinescu, Meda Lavinia Negrutiu, Tudor-Alexandru Popoiu, Maria Cristina Langa, Cristian Zaharia

Background and objectives A stable maxillary total prosthesis in an edentulous jaw requires a definite amount of ridge height. Deficient vestibular depth in an atrophic maxilla can cause severe functional impairment for patients with total prosthesis. This affects their quality of life, with impact on their general health. Preprosthetic vestibule remodeling could be carried out using conventional surgery or lasers to obtain an appropriate depth. The aim of our study was to compare the clinical results obtained thro …

School-Level Bribery in Public Primary Education in Uganda

Martin Söderberg, Edward Kumakech, Vanja Berggren

Despite stern anticorruption laws, and the government’s pronounced ambition to offer education free of charge, there is evidence to suggest that many families in Uganda with children in public primary schools get solicitated for bribes. The present study examines why ordinary Ugandan parents and schoolteachers recurrently become involved in the lose-lose game of bribery. Drawing primarily on household survey data, this case study takes a deep dive into the institutional “bad barrels” in Uganda, and discusses the dy …

Pre-frailty and frailty as independent predictors of mortality in U.S. breast cancer survivors: Evidence from the national health interview survey, 1997 to 2018

Chunlei Wu, Xun Du, Jing Li, Xiangxiang Yang, Yaxin Huang

Frailty is increasingly recognized as a determinant of poor outcomes in cancer survivorship, yet its prognostic value among breast cancer survivors remains unclear, particularly for pre-frailty. We analyzed data from 22 waves of the national health interview survey (1997–2018), linked to the national death index, encompassing 625,128 adults, including 9941 breast cancer survivors and 615,187 cancer-free participants. Frailty was assessed using a modified fatigue, resistance, ambulation, illness, and loss of weight …

Effectiveness of Progressive Cognitive-Motor Task Training With Low-Impact Recreational Activity on Functional Independence Among the Elderly Population

Nimisha Rajesh Shah, Anandh Srinivasan

Objectives Ageing is commonly associated with declines in physical mobility and cognitive function, leading to reduced independence in daily activities among older adults. Progressive cognitive motor task training (PCMTT), which integrates physical and cognitive exercises, has the potential to improve functional performance. When combined with low-impact recreational activities (LIRA), this integrated approach may provide additional benefits by promoting physical, cognitive, and social well-being. Thus, the current …

The Invisible Balance: How Prebiotics and Probiotics Can Support Fish Health and Development

Horia-Ioanid Stan, Cristian-Alin Barbacariu, Cristina Simeanu, Cristina-Gabriela Radu-Rusu, Lazăr Mircea, Daniel Simeanu

Aquaculture is a field that has developed rapidly over the past decade with the emergence of intensive farming systems that have significantly increased global fish production. However, this intensification has also led to the emergence of diseases caused by various pathogens, often resulting in extensive antibiotic use and, consequently, antimicrobial resistance (AMR). Consequently, research has focused on finding other sustainable alternatives to avoid the overuse of antibiotics and to protect both human and anim …

Vicious Cycle of Fever Phobia and the One Health Nexus: A Review

IBRAHIM ABAYOMI OGUNYINKA, Israel Oluwabusayo Oni, Adeniye Sulaiman Badmus, Bello Junaid

Fever is a biological phenomenon experienced by both humans and animals with environmental (like infectious agents), iatrogenic factors (like vaccines, drugs) as culprits. However, in spite of the availability of national and international clinical practice guidelines on childhood fever management, fever phobia or fever anxiety persists globally till date. This enduring phenomenon leads to non-evidence based behaviours that are practiced by parents/caregivers, healthcare providers, all races and countries globally. …

Transforming community health advocates into peer interventionists: a binational harm reduction model

Julia Lechuga, Rebeca Ramos, Gilberto Perez, Maria Elena Ramos, Julian Rojas, Luisa Ramos, João Ferreira-Pinto

Background Community Health Advocates (CHAs) are widely employed as outreach workers for people who use drugs (PWUD), yet there is limited evidence on how to design capacity-building interventions that strengthen peer-driven behavior change in binational border settings. This study examined a structured capacity-building model that trained peer CHAs in Ciudad Juárez, Mexico, and El Paso, Texas to deliver an HIV prevention and skills-building intervention to PWUD and assessed its impact on HIV risk and protective be …

Reappraising Value in Pediatric Procedural Sedation Under Japan’s Universal Health Coverage: A Narrative Review

Soichiro Obara, Yoshinori Nakata

Japan’s universal health coverage is often discussed in terms of broad access and regulated prices, but its national fee schedule also shapes how services are organized, governed, and delivered. Pediatric procedural sedation illustrates this governance function in short-horizon, safety-critical care, where quality depends not only on technical expertise but also on staffing, monitoring, recovery capacity, rescue readiness, and coordination across departments. In this setting, reimbursement policy, specialist capaci …
