Influence of research evidence on the use of cardiovascular clinical prediction rules in primary care: an exploratory qualitative interview study
CONCLUSIONS: Clinicians' perceptions and experiences could influence how they use research evidence in decisions about using cardiovascular CPRs. This implies, when promoting evidence-based decisions, it might be useful to target clinicians' unfamiliarity, distrust, and challenges regarding the use of research evidence rather than focusing only on their knowledge and skills. Further, because clinicians often rely on evidence-unrelated factors, guideline developers and policymakers should recommend cardiovascular CPRs supported by high-quality evidence.PMID:37730553 | DOI:10.1186/s12875-023-02155-w

A New Strategy for Rejuvenating Primary Healthcare: The Government-Society Partnership Model
J Prim Care Community Health. 2023 Jan-Dec;14:21501319231200763. doi: 10.1177/21501319231200763.ABSTRACTPrimary healthcare systems worldwide are under stress as increased demands during pandemic surges have exposed deficiencies in the system. Primary healthcare centers have significant responsibilities but are often underfunded and understaffed. Recent events, including the COVID-19 pandemic, have highlighted the importance of a strong primary health center network to promote community health and save lives. Most governments have multiple competing financial needs for scarce resources, ultimately limiting the advancement o...

Prediction of groundwater quality index to assess suitability for drinking purpose using averaged neural network and geospatial analysis
This study revealed that over 50 % of the evaluated wells (Total 8326 wells) were inappropriate as sources of drinking water, indicating a pressing need for policy revision. The averaged neural network model achieved a high predictive accuracy of approximately 95 % for GQI grades, outperforming other classification models. The introduction of 2D spatial analysis in conjunction with machine learning algorithms notably increased the predictive accuracy for unevenly distributed groundwater samples. Moreover, this combined approach enabled the intuitive visualization of groundwater vulnerability across various regions, which c...

Insight into the effect of particulate organic matter on sludge granulation at the low organic load: Sludge characteristics, extracellular polymeric substances and microbial communities response
Bioresour Technol. 2023 Sep 18:129791. doi: 10.1016/j.biortech.2023.129791. Online ahead of print.ABSTRACTThis paper investigated the effect of particulate organic matter (POM) on sludge granulation under low organic load. The results showed that POM promoted the formation of aerobic granular sludge (AGS) with a chemical oxygen demand (COD) fraction of 25%, and POM also enhanced the sludge settleability and biomass retention. However, when the COD fraction of POM increased to 50% and 75%, the AGS performance deteriorated. The analysis of extracellular polymeric substances revealed that the POM (accounted for ≤ 50% of COD...

Implications of ubiquitination and the maintenance of replication fork stability in cancer therapy
Biosci Rep. 2023 Sep 20:BSR20222591. doi: 10.1042/BSR20222591. Online ahead of print.ABSTRACTDNA replication forks are subject to intricate surveillance and strict regulation by sophisticated cellular machinery. Such close regulation is necessary to ensure the accurate duplication of genetic information and to tackle the diverse endogenous and exogenous stresses that impede this process. Stalled replication forks are vulnerable to collapse, which is a major cause of genomic instability and carcinogenesis. Replication stress responses, which are organized via a series of coordinated molecular events, stabilize stalled repli...

In-depth insight into the effects of tapioca or corn acetylated distarch phosphate on the gel properties and in vitro digestibility of kung-wan
This study aimed to investigate the effects of incorporating tapioca acetylated distarch phosphate (TADSP) or corn acetylated distarch phosphate (CADSP) on the gel properties and in vitro digestibility of Chinese-style meatballs known as kung-wan. The results showed that TADSP and CADSP significantly enhanced the textural properties of kung-wan in a dose-dependent manner (P < 0.05), as well as enhanced the rheological behavior of meat batters. TADSP resulted in a denser meat protein gel network compared to CADSP, primarily because the lower pasting temperature of TADSP made it gelatinize earlier and more completely duri...

Exploring associations between built environment and crash risk of children in school commuting
Accid Anal Prev. 2023 Sep 18;193:107287. doi: 10.1016/j.aap.2023.107287. Online ahead of print.ABSTRACTUnderstanding how built environment are associated with crash risk (CR) in school commuting is essential to improving travel safety through land use and transportation policies. Scholars often assume that this relationship is consistent across space, but this may lead to inconsistent estimates. To address this issue, using data in Shenzhen, China, the data covers traffic accident data of children taken from police incident reports and supplemented with local land use, transportation network and specific school information...

Performance patterns of primary health care in the face of COVID-19 in Brazil: characteristics and contrasts
This study aims to contrast two extreme standards of PHC performance in the fight against COVID-19 in Brazil, comparing them with the profiles of the corresponding municipalities and characteristics of the organization of services. Based on the results of a cross-sectional national survey with a representative sample of UBSs, we created a synthetic index to evaluate how PHC performs against COVID-19 called CPI, composed of axes of health surveillance and social support (collective dimension) and of COVID-19 care and continuity of care (individual dimension). Of the 907 surveyed UBSs, 120 were selected, half of which had th...

Can network infrastructure construction improve the low-carbon innovation of Chinese enterprises?
This study considers the implementation of the "Broadband China" strategy as an exogenous policy shock and examines the impact of network infrastructure construction (NIC) on the low-carbon innovation (LCI) of enterprises and its underlying mechanisms by using a progressive difference-in-difference model based on the data of Chinese listed enterprises from 2009 to 2020. This study finds that NIC can improve the LCI of enterprises. After the elimination of the sample selection bias and selection of the urban slope as the exogenous instrumental variable, the conclusions remained robust. The results of the mechanism test show...

Cleavage furrow-directed cortical flows bias PAR polarization pathways to link cell polarity to cell division
Curr Biol. 2023 Sep 15:S0960-9822(23)01155-7. doi: 10.1016/j.cub.2023.08.076. Online ahead of print.ABSTRACTDuring development, the conserved PAR polarity network is continuously redeployed, requiring that it adapt to changing cellular contexts and environmental cues. In the early C. elegans embryo, polarity shifts from being a cell-autonomous process in the zygote to one that must be coordinated between neighbors as the embryo becomes multicellular. Here, we sought to explore how the PAR network adapts to this shift in the highly tractable C. elegans germline P lineage. We find that although P lineage blastomeres exhibit ...

A food interaction network between psittacines and plants in an urban area in the city of S ão Carlos - SP, southeastern Brazil
Braz J Biol. 2023 Sep 15;83:e269353. doi: 10.1590/1519-6984.269353. eCollection 2023.ABSTRACTThe Psittacidae presents a great diversity of species in the Neotropical region performing fundamental ecological functions for ecosystems. These frugivorous birds can occupy different positions in the antagonistic-mutualistic gradient of food interactions, acting as predators and/or as seed dispersers. Little is known about bird-plant ecological interaction networks focusing on psittacines in urban environments, which may compromise the management of natural areas in anthropic landscapes and hinder the planning of conservation str...
