A comprehensive hierarchical comparison of structural connectomes in Major Depressive Disorder cases < em > v. < /em > controls in two large population samples
CONCLUSION: Our results suggest that the brain's fundamental rich club structure is similar in MDD cases and controls, but subtle topological differences exist across the brain. Consistent with recent large-scale neuroimaging findings, our findings offer a connectomic perspective on a similar scale and support the idea that minimal differences exist between MDD cases and controls.PMID:38497116 | DOI:10.1017/S0033291724000643 (Source: Psychological Medicine)

Myeloablation followed by hematopoietic stem cell transplantation leads to long ‐term normalization of systemic sclerosis molecular signatures
ConclusionParalleling the observed clinical benefit, HSCT leads to durable long-term normalization of the molecular signature in SSc with completion of immune resetting to 54 months post-HSCT. (Source: Arthritis and Rheumatology)

Rurality, healthcare and crises: Investigating experiences, differences, and changes to medical care for people living in rural areas
Health Place. 2024 Mar 16;87:103217. doi: 10.1016/j.healthplace.2024.103217. Online ahead of print.ABSTRACTHealthcare provision in rural areas is a global challenge, characterised by a dispersed patient population, difficulties in the recruitment and retention of healthcare professionals and a physical distance from hospital care. This research brings together both public and doctor perspectives to explore the experience of healthcare across rural Scotland, against the backdrop of contemporary crises, including a global pandemic and extreme weather events. We draw on two studies on rural healthcare provision to understand ...

Integrating Shared Socioeconomic Pathway-informed adaptation into temperature-related mortality projections under climate change
Environ Res. 2024 Mar 14:118731. doi: 10.1016/j.envres.2024.118731. Online ahead of print.ABSTRACTThe extent to which populations will successfully adapt to continued warming temperatures will be a crucial factor in determining future health burdens. Previous health impact assessments of future temperature-related mortality burdens mostly disregard adaptation or make simplistic assumptions. We apply a novel evidence-based approach to model adaptation that takes into account the fact that adaptation potential is likely to vary at different temperatures. Temporal changes in age-specific mortality risk associated with low and...

Police custody in rural Scotland: negotiating boundaries, risk and  organisational change
Police custody in rural Scotland: negotiating boundaries, risk and organisational change Andrew Wooff Policing: An International Journal, Vol. ahead-of-print, No. ahead-of-print, pp.- This paper explores the challenging nexus of police custody, risk and intra-organisational boundaries in the context of a recently reformed national police service. Police custody is an often-hidden aspect of policing, away from the public gaze and scrutiny. Although there is increasing recognition of the importance of rural policing (e.g. Harkness (2020); Mawby and Yarwood (2011); Ruddell and Jones (2020); Yarwood and Wooff (2016)), there h...

Prognostic and Predictive Value of Immunoscore in Stage III Colorectal Cancer: Pooled Analysis of Cases From the SCOT and IDEA-HORG Studies
