Abstract:

Purpose This article describes the Tinnitus E-Programme, a previously untested Internet-delivered self-help intervention for tinnitus. Method Intervention coding methodology was applied to describe the intervention components, techniques, and mode of delivery. Results The intervention consists of 5 self-management intervention components, 5 behavior change techniques, and 3 modes of Internet delivery, which aim to promote relaxation behavior and reduce tinnitus distress. Conclusions The intervention coding provided a reliable method for reporting Internet-delivered self-help interventions. It will be used to facilitate our understanding of the intervention's potential mechanisms of change and will guide future evaluation work.

Abstract:

Introduction: Breast cancer is the most common malignancy in the world. Screening is the basis for early detection. However, the mortality rate is still high in Iranian women related to not screening and timely check-ups. We offered a theory-based intervention program to improve breast cancer screening behavior in women. Methods: This interventional study was conducted in 135 employed women in 2019. Their screening behavior was investigated using a questionnaire based on the Protection Motivation and Social Support Theories. We compared the efficacy of 2 educational interventions (a workshop and an E-learning program) between 2 intervention groups and a control group. The results were collected 3 months after the interventions had taken place. Data were analyzed in SPSS 23 using descriptive statistics, chi-square, analysis of variance (ANOVA), and the paired sample t-test. Results: We found a significant difference between the mean score of knowledge and the theoretical constructs ( P value < .001) before and after the interventions. Our results also showed that both the intervention methods had a similar effect and that there was a significant difference in the performance of breast self-examinations between the intervention and control groups after the intervention ( P value < .001). Conclusion: Given the cost-effectiveness and feasibility of implementing an E-learning program, we would recommend that health care planners assist in designing and implementing this effective form of intervention to encourage many more women to perform self-examinations to aid breast cancer screening.

Abstract:

SummaryStudies demonstrate poor guideline adherence by health care providers for the treatment of upper respiratory infections, particularly acute bacterial rhinosinusitis (ABRS), in the appropriate prescribing of antibiotic medications.The purpose of this quality improvement project was to evaluate the effect of implementing interventions for improving adherence to a clinical practice guideline for the management of ABRS for patients treated in the e-visit setting. Interventions included: providing a report to providers of their adherence to the ABRS clinical guideline prior to the intervention, providing updated education on the ABRS guideline, and implementing a clinical decision support system reminder.A pre and post intervention evaluation design was used. Data were obtained from a retrospective electronic health record (EHR) data extract of all 316 diagnoses for ABRS in the preintervention 2-month time period and all 368 diagnoses of ABRS in the post-intervention 2-month time period. A review of the structured clinical data elements was performed to determine whether the provider adhered to the clinical guideline, meaning that only patients meeting the criteria for ABRS were to receive an antibiotic prescription.The interventions resulted in a 3.3% improvement in adherence to the ABRS clinical guideline from 95.25% adherence pre-intervention to 98.4% post-intervention. These results demonstrated that the use of an educational intervention and clinical decision support resulted in improved adherence to the ABRS clinical guideline in the e-visit setting. The implications for practice could be significant in that these quality improvement interventions improve guideline adherence and reduce unnecessary prescribing of antibiotics.

Abstract:

Background Apolipoprotein E (APOE) ε4 allele is a major genetic risk factor for Alzheimer disease and mild cognitive impairment (MCI). Computer-based training programs can improve cognitive performance in elderly populations. However, the effects of computer-based interventions on MCI APOE ε4 carriers have never been studied before. Objective The effects of different web-based interventions and the APOE isoform-specific differences in training outcomes are investigated. Methods Using a quasi-experimental study design, 202 participants with MCI aged 60 years and older took part in three different intervention programs (physical and cognitive [Long-Lasting Memories, or LLM], cognitive [Active Control, or AC], or physical intervention [Physical Training Control, or PTC]) via an innovative information and communication technologies exergaming platform. Participants in each interventional group were subdivided into APOE ε4 carriers and non–APOE ε4 carriers. All participants underwent an extensive neuropsychological evaluation before and after the training, blood tests, and brain imaging. Results All interventions resulted in multiple statistically significant cognitive benefits after the intervention. Verbal learning (California Verbal Learning Test: immediate recall test score—LLM: P=.04; AC: P<.001), working memory (digit span forward and backward test scores—AC: P=.03; PTC: P=.02 and P=.006, respectively), and long-term memory (California Verbal Learning Test: delayed recall test score—LLM: P=.02; AC: P=.002; and PTC: P=.02) were improved. There was no statistically significant difference among the intervention effects. APOE ε4 presence moderates intervention effects as the LLM intervention improved only their task-switching processing speed (Trail Making Test, Part B: P=.03) and the PTC intervention improved only the working memory (digit span backward: P=.03). No significant performance alteration was noted for the APOE ε4+ cognitive AC training group. Conclusions None of the applied interventions could be identified as the optimal one; it is suggested, however, that combined cognitive and physical training and physical training via exergaming may be more effective for the high-risk MCI ΑPOE ε4+ subgroup.

Abstract:

Die Soziologie spielt im Vergleich zur Betriebswirtschaft, Volkswirtschaft und neuerdings auch Virologie im öffentlichen Diskurs eine vergleichsweise untergeordnete Rolle. Letztlich lassen sich dabei zwei Paradoxien entfalten: Die Soziologie (a) spielt in gesellschaftlichen Diskursen häufig keine Rolle, obwohl sie hierzu prädestiniert sein müsste, und (b) wenn doch, wird ihr Blick besondert. Im Zusammenhang mit der Debatte zur öffentlichen Soziologie bildet sich mittels digitaler Möglichkeiten die „E-Public Sociology“ heraus, die eine beinahe voraussetzungslose Kommunikation mit der interessierten Öffentlichkeit annimmt. Im vorliegenden Text entwickeln wir ein Vier-Felder-Schema zur Analyse soziologischen Wirkens in der Öffentlichkeit und ein darauf fußendes Kommunikationskonzept als Teil der „E-Public Sociology“. Exemplarisch für die sich durch Digitalisierung neu ergebenden Kommunikationsmöglichkeiten fokussieren wir Podcasts als spezifische Form soziologischer Tätigkeit zwischen ‚öffentlicher Soziologie‘ und ‚Soziologie in der Öffentlichkeit‘. Dabei zeigt sich, dass zur Intervention Systematischeres als die bloße Steigerung der Präsenz der Soziologie gefordert ist.

Abstract:

Background: The emergence of new technologies in the area of health information and communication helps pharmacists to check the safety of medications used via electronic prescribing. Objectives: The study aimed to identify the rate and types of problems with electronic prescriptions (e-prescriptions) that required pharmacist intervention at an inpatient pharmacy, and to evaluate prescribers’ acceptance of these interventions. Methods: A retrospective cross-sectional study on the interventions of e-prescriptions documented by pharmacists was conducted in a public hospital inpatient pharmacy. Data were collected for descriptive analysis using a collection form, including the e-prescription interventions, types of wards, drugs involved, and acceptance of intervention by prescribers. A chi-square test was used to evaluate the association between ward pharmacist availability and the rate of interventions. Results: A total number of 11,922 (3.3%) pharmacist interventions were proposed for 357,760 e-prescriptions ordered in the 12 month study period. Of the total number of proposed interventions, 11,381 (95.5%) were accepted by prescribers. The interventions on e-prescriptions were from surgical wards (11.7%) followed by intensive care (5.6%), paediatric (3.5%) and medical specialty wards (2.9%). Anti-infective agents (33.8%) and cardiovascular medicines (27.0%) were among the drugs with the highest rate of interventions. The most common type of intervention was revising the drug regimen (58.4%), especially with anti-infective agents (33.8%). Prescribers in surgical wards showed the highest level of acceptance of pharmacist interventions, which was 97.37%. The presence of ward pharmacists showed a higher number of interventions (6.2 vs. 1.0%, p < 0.001) than wards without pharmacists, as well as a higher percentage of acceptance (96.4 vs. 91.1%, p < 0.001) towards e-prescription intervention. Conclusion: In e-prescribing, errors can be prevented by pharmacists’ interventions on e-prescriptions. This helps to prevent medication errors and thus optimise rational pharmacotherapy in patients. The role of ward pharmacists in pharmaceutical care is highly accepted by prescribers.

Abstract:

Purpose: This project explores electronic mail (e-mail) as a potential medium for pharmacists to communicate pharmacotherapy interventions to prescribers. Methods: This retrospective descriptive analysis was conducted at an urban, academic teaching hospital. The pharmacist attempted a drug therapy intervention via e-mail when unable to make face-to-face contact with the attending physician. Eligible patients for this project were admitted to the advanced heart failure (HF) team between December 1, 2010, and July 31, 2011, and had at least 1 attempted e-mail intervention. The primary outcome was the number of accepted interventions, while the secondary end point was the time until a physician e-mail response. Results: A total of 51 e-mail interventions were attempted on 29 patients (mean age = 53, 24% caucasian, 59% male, 69% left ventricular-assist device [VAD]). Overall, of the total 51 interventions,44 (86.3%) were accepted. The average time to a physician e-mail response was 41 minutes. Initiation of drug therapy and changing dose and route or frequency accounted for the most frequent intervention (33%). The most common drug classes involved in the e-mail interventions were angiotensin-converting enzyme inhibitors (15.7%), loop diuretics (9.8%), and antiplatelet agents (7.8%). Conclusion: Clinical pharmacists with well-established physician relationships can effectively implement timely drug therapy recommendations using e-mail communications in patients with advanced HF or VADs.

Abstract:

Field studies evaluating the effects of multiple concurrent preharvest interventions for Escherichia coli O157 are logistically and economically challenging; however, modeling techniques may provide useful information on these effects while also identifying crucial information gaps that can guide future research. We constructed a risk assessment model with data obtained from a systematic search of scientific literature. Parameter distributions were incorporated into a stochastic Monte Carlo modeling framework to examine the impacts of different combinations of preharvest and harvest interventions for E. coli O157 on the risk of beef carcass contamination. We estimated the risk of E. coli O157 carcass contamination conditional on preharvest fecal prevalence estimates, inclusion of feed additive(s) in the diet, vaccination for E. coli O157, transport and lairage effects, hide intervention(s), and carcass intervention(s). Prevalence parameters for E. coli O157 were assumed to encompass potential effects of concentration; therefore, concentration effects were not specifically evaluated in this study. Sensitivity analyses revealed that fecal prevalence, fecal-to-hide transfer, hide-to-carcass transfer, and carcass intervention efficacy significantly affected the risk of carcass contamination (correlation coefficients of 0.37, 0.56, 0.58, and −0.29, respectively). The results indicated that combinations of preharvest interventions may be particularly important for supplementing harvest interventions during periods of higher variability in fecal shedding prevalence (i.e., summer). Further assessments of the relationships among fecal prevalence and concentration, hide contamination, and subsequent carcass contamination are needed to further define risks and intervention impacts for E. coli O157 contamination of beef.

Abstract:

Purpose The purpose of this study is to explore the presence of key interactive design features across Internet-based audiology rehabilitation and self-management interventions, and whether there is evidence of them mediating effects of the intervention. Method Adult audiology interventions relevant to this review were identified through a literature search in Google Scholar and a hand search of key journals. Four key interactive design features that have been proposed to mediate the effects of Internet-based health interventions were reported for each intervention: social context and support, contacts with the intervention, tailoring, and self-management. Results Five interventions were identified as representative examples of work in the field. Social context and support and contacts with the intervention were provided in most interventions, mainly through clinician guidance. Only 1 intervention utilized tailoring to personalize intervention content to individual users, but use was minimal. Self-management features were also used in all interventions but the precise nature of these features was poorly reported. Conclusion Future studies should assess the optimal dose and combinations of intervention features for maximizing efficacy in audiology intervention. To be specific, the role of tailoring should be explored, which has been identified as a potential mediator of intervention outcome in the wider e-health literature.

Abstract:

One way internet users determine the quality of a website is to look for so called 'credibility factors'. These factors can either be positive: the presence of a date, reference list, independent site certification; or negative: the presence of advertisements or broken links. This thesis investigates what role such factors play in the effectiveness of two e-health interventions. An e-health intervention is a health related website designed to change a person’s behaviour. Until now research into credibility has been largely theoretical. Studies have relied on subjective outcome measures such as Likert scales, website content recall, expressions of preference and self reported behaviour. This thesis describes two studies, the second of which investigates, for the first time, whether surface credibility manipulations change objective behavioural outcomes. Surface credibility is how much a perceiver believes a website on simple inspection. Based on a comprehensive literature review of credibility research, the following credibility factors were explored: presence of advertising, recognisable logos, contact details, physical address, references, third party certification, currency information, privacy statement, HTTPS encryption, top level domain and presence of a broken link. The first study involved the assembly of an exercise promotion website. Participants were randomised to receive the site modified to contain either factors heightening credibility or those lowering credibility. Participants using the high credibility version spent twice as long browsing the site as those using the low credibility version. There was no effect on attitude to exercise or self reported physical activity. The second study used the same methodology but with a website targeting an objectively measurable health behaviour (registration as an organ donor). In this study 889 university students were exposed to a website promoting organ donation. Information on the site was assembled based on theoretical domain interviewing and current research into organ donation interventions. 336 (37.79%) participants registered through the study website. The study detected no significant difference in registration rates between high and low credibility versions of the site. Of the 17 comments left on the low credibility site, only 3 were credibility related criticisms. It is the finding of this thesis that university students are willing to submit personal information and place trust in a website contravening many current credibility guidelines. Future studies into credibility are needed to explore why this is the case. One possibility is that the website was trusted simply because it was part of a research study. Another possibility is that the high quality of the textual content compensated for the lack of credibility of the site itself. It is the recommendation of this thesis that future studies focus on objective behavioural outcome measures and control for other forms of credibility such as participation in a research study.

Abstract:

Introduction: Preconception interventions targeting substance use as well as effective contraception are important to improve the health of both the mother and her offspring, or to reduce unintended pregnancies. Computer-delivered interventions have been shown to be effective in the reducing the risk of alcohol-exposed pregnancies. However, little is known about the effect of specific computer-delivered intervention components and if/how they contribute to the desired intervention outcome. This study experimentally evaluated the contribution of two common intervention factors (empathy and video) of a motivational e-intervention for marijuana and contraception use.

Methods: One hundred sixty-six females who reported using marijuana in the last 6 months and having intercourse without reliable contraception in the last 12 months were recruited from a large urban university. Participants were randomly assigned to one of four intervention conditions: empathy, video, both empathy and video, or neither. The main and interaction effects of empathy and video on pre-post intervention change of intent to use marijuana in the next 30 days and intent to contact a physician about making an appointment to discuss contraception methods in the next 30 days was evaluated.

Results: The main effect of empathy and the main effect of video on mean change of intention to use marijuana in the next 30 days was not statistically significant, (F(1,162) = .063, p = .802, partial η² = .000, and _F(1,162) = .198, p = .657, partial η² = .001), respectively. The main effect of empathy and the main effect of video on mean change of intention to contact a physician to schedule an appointment to discuss contraception in the next 30 days were also not statistically significant, (F(1,162) = .004, p = .987, partial η² = .00 and F(1,162) = .540, _p = .464, partial η² = .003), respectively. The interaction between empathy and video for both the pre-post intervention change of intention to use marijuana in the next 30 days and for pre to post intervention change of intention to contact a physician to schedule an appointment to discuss LARC in the next 30 days was not significant.

Conclusion: Continued research is needed to evaluate the contributions of empathy and video in computer-delivered intervention in order to identify and optimize the factors that contribute to the videos effect. Examining the effectiveness of specific components will contribute to a greater understanding of how behavioral health interventions can employ technology in ways that are increasingly evidence-based and optimally effective.

Abstract:

Volume 1 of this thesis focuses on interventions used to combat public stigma towards people with intellectual disabilities (ID) in African countries. It is presented in three parts. Part one presents a systematic review of the types of interventions conducted in African countries to combat public stigma towards people with ID. It also critically appraises the quality of evidence reported by these initiatives. The paper concludes by identifying which interventions are likely to thrive in African settings and discussing the factors that contribute to their successful implementation. However, it points out that there remains insufficient evidence to adequately judge the efficacies of such interventions and calls for more rigorous evaluations in African settings. Part two is a joint empirical study that investigates the efficacy of a brief digital intervention as a tool to combat public stigma towards people with ID in two countries: Nigeria and Kenya. The empirical paper within this volume looks at the Nigerian intervention. The intervention focuses on an integrated approach combining education and indirect contact through film. The paper outlines the impact of the integrated approach used, the study limitations and the implications for further research. Part three is a critical appraisal of the work undergone in the empirical paper. Focus is given to the need for more global research within the programme and the significant relevance of this type of work.

Abstract:

Schizophrenia is a severe and chronic disorder in many cases. The illness can impact on the whole family. Family interventions are a psychosocial treatment for schizophrenia. A robust evidence base has developed supporting the use of family interventions, as reduced relapse and other clinical benefits can be produced. The majority of service users in forensic services suffer from schizophrenia. Yet little is known about the need, acceptability or feasibility of family intervention in forensic services. The over-arching goal of this programme of research was to review the literature for family intervention and conduct a comprehensive needs assessment, with a final aim to resolve the barriers of implementation of family intervention within forensic services. Meta-analysis indicated that the efficacy of family interventions resulted in positive outcomes in reduced relapse and psychotic symptoms, and improved knowledge and relationships. Family interventions were found to be applicable to the psychological needs of forensic service users. Problems were identified with staff training and supervision on forensic wards, with few wards providing family intervention as part of treatment for schizophrenia. Relatives of forensic service users expressed a need for family intervention. Staff highlighted that the barriers to family intervention were associated with insufficient time, poor support, lack of training, deficient information sharing, and geographic limitations between family homes and the forensic units. Staff offered solutions to implementing family intervention that related to revised policy and improved supervision. Relatives and staff held positive attitudes toward family intervention with open-minded attitudes towards the use of a web camera to facilitate family intervention in forensic services (e-FFI). The fourteen week web based family intervention (e-FFI) feasibility study generated reduced levels of stress, stigma and expressed emotion with improvements in the family’s knowledge of schizophrenia, personal health and an acceptance of forensic services. E-FFI was administered with ease achieving positive feedback from the family and the forensic service.

Abstract:

This thesis focuses on using an e-intervention to challenge the stigma of intellectual disability in Kenya. Part one of the thesis is a systematic literature review examining the attitudes towards people with intellectual disabilities in Africa. The search strategies used to identify the relevant literature are specified. The 22 papers are presented according to the differences in attitudes among various groups including the general public, teachers and families. The findings are then summarised and methodological issues and implications discussed. Part two is an empirical study using a randomised control trial to assess (1) attitudes towards intellectual disability in Kenya. Attitudes were assessed at baseline, immediately post-intervention and at one month follow-up and (2) the feasibility of a digital intervention in a Kenyan context. The measures used were the Attitudes Toward Intellectual Disabilities questionnaire short version (ATTID-SF) reflecting affective, cognitive and behavioural dimensions and the supernatural beliefs subscale of the Intellectual Disabilities Literacy Scale (IDLS). The prevalent attitudes towards intellectual disabilities are described and the effects and feasibility of the intervention discussed. This paper forms part of a joint research study conducted with Deborah Odukoya (2017; Clinical Psychology Doctorate Trainee, University College London) who will report attitudes towards intellectual disabilities in Nigeria. While both projects were conceptualised and planned in parallel, an entirely separate intervention that was appropriate to the respective cultural context was produced by each of us, and data collection and analyses were conducted entirely separately. Part 3 is a critical appraisal detailing personal reflections and considers methodological issues which arose during the study.

Abstract:

This paper determines the effects of police interventions on darknet markets. Darknet markets have been rapidly growing and the amount of drugs being sold on them keeps rising. This paper finds no significant changes in prices of drug listings before and after drug busts, and no significant changes in price per unit of drugs across the entire market. The results are similar to prior research done on normal drug markets that determined that police interventions have no significant effect on changing drug prices. With the rapid growth of drugs being sold on darknet markets, it is critical for law enforcement to understand how the markets react to police interventions.

Full text

Abstract:

Internet-based self-management interventions have the potential to reduce the current disparity in access to psychological support for people with tinnitus. One example is the Tinnitus E-Programme, which was developed in the United Kingdom to support self-management in people with tinnitus. Although freely available online, there was little understanding of how the intervention is used, its active ingredients, how it works, the circumstances in which it works best, and whom it works best for. This PhD aimed to address these issues by evaluating and optimising the Tinnitus E-Programme. A systematic review of self-help interventions for tinnitus was conducted, which concluded that there was a need for further evaluations of unguided self-help interventions in UK populations. A mixed methods study explored past, current, and new users’ (n=40) views and usage of the Tinnitus E-Programme (1.0), demonstrating that it was acceptable to people with tinnitus. However, its implementation was limited by instances of poor usability, user engagement, and adherence to behavioural goals. Consistent with a person-based approach, the findings from this mixed methods study were used alongside evidence-based (i.e. systematic and literature reviews) and theory-based (i.e. behavioural analysis and logic modelling) approaches to develop the Tinnitus E-Programme 2.0. Think aloud interviews with 19 people with tinnitus evaluated this new version of the intervention and findings revealed that the Tinnitus E-Programme 2.0 was acceptable to its target users. The two primary research studies highlighted how users’ pre-existing beliefs regarding tinnitus and self-management, their perceptions of relevance, and the nature of tinnitus can influence users’ engagement with the Tinnitus E-Programme 1.0 and 2.0. Several cognitive factors (e.g. illness beliefs), behavioural factors (e.g. practicing relaxation), and behavioural determinants (e.g. motivation to practice relaxation) were identified by users to explain how changes in intervention outcomes may occur. Further development and implementation work is needed that introduces and evaluates additional intervention content and design features, and explores how the intervention can fit into current clinical service models for tinnitus. Future evaluation work should test the hypothesised mechanisms of impact and contextual factors proposed in this work, and assess the acceptability and feasibility of procedures for subsequent randomised controlled trials that will assess the efficacy of the intervention.

Abstract:

Background: Preterm infants are at high risk for neurodevelopmental disorders, even in the absence of overt brain lesions. NICU stressful environment, inadequate nutritional support and paucity of parental contact seem to negatively impact early brain development. In this context, mother milk feeding, could play a beneficial role although it is known to be challenging. Recent studies have shown how early interventions can reduce stress exposure with a positive effect on mother-infant relationship and subsequent neurodevelopment in preterm infants. Aims: To determine the effectiveness, in preterm infants, of an Early Intervention program on: i) visual function at term equivalent age (TEA) as an early emerging cognitive function; ii) infant’s feeding behavior and in particular on mother milk assumption at discharge; iii) epigenetic changes in DNA methylation status at TEA; iv) brain growth and maturation assessed by advanced Magnetic Resonance Imaging (MRI) at TEA. Methods: We conducted a parallel-group, randomized controlled trial (Trial Registration Number: NCT02983513). We included preterm infants born between 25+0 and 29+6 weeks of gestational age (GA) without severe morbidities and their families. Infants were recruited and randomized to either receiving Early intervention (EI) or Standard Care (SC). EI program included PremieStart, based on parental involvement, together with a multisensory stimulation (both tactile – through infant massage - and visual stimulation). SC, delivered according to NICU protocols, included Kangaroo Mother Care and minimal handling. Infants with major neonatal morbidities (i.e. surgical NEC; severe brain injuries as GMH-IVH>2°, cPVL) were excluded. The following evaluation were performed: i) Visual ability were assessed at TEA according to the protocol developed by Ricci et al. ii) Infants’ human milk intake at discharge was calculated from the infants’ computerized medical chart, as well as time of acquisition of full-oral feeding iii) As a proxy of DNA methylation we explored LINE-1 methylation status. The analyses were conducted using two blood samples: a cord blood sample, collected at birth, and a peripheral blood sample, harvested at TEA. iv) To calculate brain growth automated segmentation was conducted on each neonatal Axial T2 2 mm scan, in conjunction with the T1 scan. Volumetric measures of the structures were extracted from each segmentation. Results: Seventy preterm (EI n=34, SC n=36) infants were enrolled. According to the protocol 3 infants allocated to EI did not receive treatment. All babies in the SC group received allocated treatment as part of routine clinical practice. Main results include: i) Visual abilities: in total, 59% of infants in the EI group achieved the highest score possible in all 9 items of the visual assessment compared to 17% in the SC group (p=0.001). All infants in both groups showed complete maturation in four items, but EI infants showed more mature findings also in the other 5 items (ocular motility both spontaneous and with target, tracking arc, visual acuity and attention at distance). ii) Infant’s feeding behavior: a significantly higher rate of infants fed with any human milk was observed in the EI group (75.9%) compared to SC group (32.1%) (p=0.001) and EI infants were four times more likely to be fed exclusively with human milk at NICU discharge. Full oral feeding was achieved almost one week before in EI infants (mean postmenstrual age 36.8±1.6 vs 37.9±2.4 weeks in EI vs SC, p=0.04). iii) Epigenetic changes: LINE-1 methylation status increased from preterm birth to TEA for both group but was more pronounced in the EI group (p=0.0077) especially when looking at single CpG sites. iv) Brain growth: no differences were observed between the two groups in terms of regional brain volumes for the 48 areas analyzed. Conclusions: The present work provides further insights in the field of EI. Combining parental involvement and multisensory stimulation, our EI strategy showed an overall beneficial effect for preterm infants. This study, despite far to be conclusive, concur with recent evidence that the quality of early experiences influences neurodevelopment in preterm infants.

Abstract:

Food allergy, an immune-mediated adverse hypersensitivity reaction to ingested food, is an emerging global health problem that not only causes the disease to susceptible individuals but also causes psychological impacts and financial damage to their families. Food allergy incidence is significantly increased in the past decade and currently estimated at 6-8% in 1 year old children, and 2-4% in older children and adults. Food allergy is the leading cause of anaphylaxis in children and severe cases may lead to fatal anaphylaxis reactions. Although continuous efforts have been made to better understand the nature of allergens, predisposing environmental factors, and the host's immune response mechanisms, there is no cure available for food allergy today. In this study, we have investigated three food allergy reducing strategies by supplementing probiotics, low doses of allergens and omega-3 poly unsaturated fatty acids (ω-3 PUFAs) in cow's milk protein sensitized Balb/c mice. Lactobacillus rhamnosus GG (LGG) supplementation had tendency to promote Th1 response while VSL#3 provided more potent allergy reducing effects via inducing intestinal secretory IgA (sIgA). Low doses of allergen administration offered suppression of allergen-specific immune responses via Treg-mediated active suppression, indicated by suppressing both allergen-specific Th1 response [reduced BLG-specific serum IgG2a and elevated IL-12(p40)], and Th2 response [lower BLG-specific serum IgE and IgG]. Interestingly, mice received both VSL#3 and low doses of allergen exhibited both allergen-specific active suppression effects and higher sIgA production. We then investigated the effects of different levels of ω-3 and ω-6 PUFAs in the energy and fat rich Western-style diet on food allergy development. Observation of elevated BLG-specific serum immunoglobulins in all experimental mice indicated that both ω-3 and ω-6 PUFAs failed to prevent the development of allergen-specific immune response. However, ω-3 PUFAs alleviated anaphylactic reactions and the severity of allergic reaction as indicated by the unchanged rectal temperature, lower hypersensitivity scores, and Th1-favoured immune responses in BLG-sensitized O3H mice. In general, this study revealed the promising strategies for treatments and prevention against food allergy in the near future.
Les allergies alimentaires, réactions dues à une hypersensibilité du système immunitaire après ingestion d'un certain type d'aliments, constituent un problème de santé publique croissant qui, en plus de dégrader la santé des individus susceptibles, engendre un impact psychologique et financier pour les familles touchées. L'incidence des allergies alimentaires a significativement augmenté ces dernières années et le taux est actuellement estimé être de 6-8% chez les jeunes enfants d'1 an et de 2-4% chez les autres enfants et les adultes. Les allergies alimentaires représentent la première cause d'anaphylaxie chez l'enfant et plusieurs cas d'allergies peuvent causer une réaction anaphylactique fatale. Bien que des efforts continus aient été faits pour tenter de mieux comprendre la nature des allergènes, les facteurs environnementaux prédisposant aux allergies et les mécanismes de la réponse immunitaire, aucun traitement contre les allergies alimentaires n'est disponible à l'heure actuelle. Dans cette étude, nous avons testé trois différentes stratégies visant à réduire l'allergie alimentaire, à savoir l'utilisation de probiotiques, de faibles doses d'allergènes et d'acides gras polyinsaturés oméga-3 chez des souris Balb/c sensibilisées aux protéines de lait de vache. L'administration de Lactobacillus rhamnosus GG (LGG) a montré une tendance à promouvoir une activation des cellules Th1 alors que VSL#3 a engendré une plus forte réduction de l'allergie via l'induction de la sécrétion intestinale d'IgA (sIgA). L'administration de faibles doses d'allergènes a provoqué une suppression de la réponse immunitaire dirigée contre les allergènes via l'activation des cellules Treg, ceci étant suggéré par la suppression des réponses immunitaires Th1 spécifique [diminution des IgG2a BLG-spécifiques et augmentation des IL-12(p40)] et Th2 spécifique [diminution des IgE et IgG BLG-spécifiques]. De plus, les souris ayant reçu à la fois VSL#3 et des faibles doses d'allergènes ont montré une suppression des effets de la réponse allergénique et une production plus élevée de sIgA. Nous avons ensuite étudié les effets de différents niveaux d'oméga-3 et d'oméga-6 dans un régime alimentaire de type occidental riche en énergie et en matières grasses sur le développement des allergies alimentaires. L'observation d'une élévation des immunoglobulines BLG-spécifiques chez toutes les souris expérimentales ont indiqué que les oméga-3 et -6 n'ont pas réussi à empêcher le développement de la réponse immunitaire dirigée contre les allergènes. Cependant, les oméga-3 ont diminué les réactions anaphylactiques et le degré de sévérité de la réaction allergique, ceci étant suggéré par un score d'hypersensibilité plus faible, une absence de changement de la température rectale et une réponse immunitaire favorisée par les cellules Th1. Pour conclure, cette étude a révélé des stratégies prometteuses pour le traitement et la prévention des allergies alimentaires dans les années à venir.

Abstract:

Substantial resources are being directed towards use of the Internet in K-12 Education with over $2.25 billion annually distributed to K-12 schools from the Federal government alone (Maiden & Beckham, 1999). In 1998, 90% of schools had Internet access while only 2% of funds spent on software in K-12 schools were directed towards Web-based courseware (Jerald & Orlofsky, 1999). The Web-based instructional module Healthy Hearts was developed as a self-contained instructional unit delivered over the Internet, popularly referred to as â e-Learningâ , for fifth grade students to use as part of the classroom curriculum. Healthy Hearts teaches children about risk factors associated with heart disease, including physical activity, tobacco, and nutrition. After piloting and formatively evaluating Healthy Hearts in two fifth grade classrooms, Elliott (1997) made recommendations for future modification and implementation. No research regarding effects the Web-based instructional unit Healthy Hearts has on fifth grade children exists. The purpose of this study is to evaluate the impact Healthy Hearts has on fifth grade childrenâ s physical activity knowledge, attitudes, and behavior. Participants included 233 fifth grade boys and girls and 11 teachers who implemented Healthy Hearts during Spring 2001. A repeated measures experimental-control design was employed to measure Healthy Hearts effects on physical activity knowledge, attitudes, and behavior. The questionnaire used for this study included three attitude items adapted from Sport, Play, and Active Recreation for Kids (SPARK) (Sallis, Alcaraz, McKenzie, & Hovell, 1999a), six criterion referenced knowledge items developed from Healthy Hearts objectives, and a Weekly Activity Checklist to assess physical activity behavior, which was developed and validated for SPARK (Sallis et. al., 1993a). Classroom teachers administered the baseline test before students began using the module. For five weeks following the baseline test, the group 1 engaged in Healthy Hearts lessons by going to a computer lab for 45 minutes twice a week while group 2 participated in regularly scheduled classroom activities. After group 1 finished Healthy Hearts, both groups completed test 1 and then teachers from group 2 implemented Healthy Hearts with their classes. When group 2 finished using Healthy Hearts, both groups completed test 2. Dependent variables were physical activity knowledge, attitude, and behavior with group as independent variables. Other independent variables included school socioeconomic status, time allocated to Healthy Hearts, non-Healthy Hearts instruction time for related objectives, and speed of Internet connection. Repeated measures ANOVA revealed significant effects of Healthy Hearts on physical activity knowledge and attitude, however Healthy Hearts had no significant effects on behavior. Results of this study indicate Healthy Hearts could be an effective means of using the Internet to deliver health and physical activity instruction to fifth grade children, and suggest a need for further design, development, and evaluation of Healthy Hearts.

Abstract:

In the last few years, many researchers have highlighted the economic and cultural impact that crafts have on the development of territories, enhancing local identities and traditions. Various researches also point to the close relationship between trade (sometimes called ‘neighbourhood’ trade), crafts and historic centres, in terms of quality of life, and socio-economic and identity development of territories, showing their new centrality to processes of urban development and regeneration and the formation of social capital. It is evident how enterprise contributes to local development through social interactions based on negotiated and open collaborations between microenterprises, community and network. It was well argued how small business (commerce, crafts and neighbourhood stores) has always played an important role as a social garrison in sparsely populated areas, allowing cities and particularly urban centres to become more lively or livable, being able to give or take away quality from the city and the territory, attributing peculiarity, security and specificity to places or trivialising them in a homogenised landscape. Among the services of social utility recognised to the artisan workshop are: the guarantee of services useful to the livability of the place, the garrisoning of territories and the development of social relations, the promotion of local identity and its know-how, and the creation of employment opportunities through modest initial availability of capital. At the same time, the worsening recessionary dynamics that have occurred in the global economy over the past two decades and the disruptive digital transition have exposed such enterprises to increasing difficulties, disruptively accentuating the decline in competitiveness and propensity to innovate of a large proportion of craft SMEs, of which the socioeconomic literature does not see significant adaptations to the changed environment, such as reconfiguring the business model, adopting a totally new strategic plan adapting to the digital transition, generational transition, and adopting innovative organisational or system behaviours. This volume presents the Venice Original E-Commerce case – a project carried out by the Venice Metropolitan CNA thanks to the support of J.P. Morgan, the support of the Venice Rovigo Chamber of Commerce and the sponsorship of the City of Venice and Ca’ Foscari University of Venice – as a reference project intervention to focus on a possible model of intervention to support culturally-valued artisan micro-enterprises, intervening on the process of strategic renewal and the conditions to foster generational turnover, understood as an opportunity to fill the gap on the digitisation of the artisan sector.

Abstract:

AbstractHispanic/Latina breast cancer survivors (BCS) in the United States experience disparities in survivorship outcomes, including worse health-related quality of life (HRQOL) and symptom burden than non-Hispanic/Latina BCS. Despite documented efficacy among BCS in general, few psychosocial interventions are specifically designed for Hispanic/Latina BCS. With increasing technology use among US Hispanics/Latinos, e-health interventions such as smartphone applications can deliver more easily accessible, scalable, and culturally tailored psychosocial interventions. Two culturally informed smartphone applications for Hispanic/Latina BCS—My Guide (intervention) and My Health (control)—were developed and evaluated. Results demonstrated the feasibility of study procedures and the high acceptability of both applications, which showed improvements in breast cancer well-being and symptom burden over time. A third application—My Guide for Breast Cancer Treatment—was developed to expand the focus of My Guide to Hispanic/Latina women currently in active treatment for breast cancer; a second pilot randomized controlled trial will compare this new application to usual enhanced care. Given the lack of culturally tailored, evidence-based, e-health psychosocial interventions for Hispanic/Latina BCS, My Guide and My Guide for Breast Cancer Treatment may bridge a gap in cancer care, providing needed psychosocial resources to this underrepresented population. E-health supportive and behavioral interventions focused on breast cancer, and its treatment may improve patient engagement as well as patient-reported outcomes among Hispanic/Latina women during active treatment for breast cancer and into survivorship.

Abstract:

Knowledge is a strategic resource for successful data driven decision making in any organization. To harness this knowledge, successful adoption of a technological intervention is key. Institutions leverage on technology to drive knowledge management (KM) initiatives for quality service delivery and prudent data management. These initiatives provide the overall strategy for managing data resources. They make available knowledge organization tools and techniques while enabling regular updates. Derived benefits of positive deployment of a technological intervention are competency enhancement through gained knowledge, raised quality of service and promotion of healthy development of e-commerce. Successful and timely adoption of technological interventions through which knowledge management initiatives are deployed remains a key challenge to many organizations. This paper proposes a wholesome multilevel technology acceptance management model. The proposed model takes into account human, technological and organizational variables, which exist in a deployment environment. This model will be vital in driving early technology acceptance prediction and timely deployment of mitigation measures to deploy technological interventions successfully.

Abstract:

This paper focuses on research from the RISE Ethiopia team and addresses two major objectives: analysing the progress made towards achieving key goals under the four focus areas of GEQIP-E (internal efficiency, quality, equity, and system strengthening for policy formulation and reform) and whether the indicators of GEQIP-E implementation have been associated with estimated improvements in numeracy over one academic year. The analysis is based on longitudinal data collected as part of the RISE Ethiopia programme during the academic years 2018/19 and 2021/22, as they coincide with the implementation of GEQIP-E (GEQIP-E was disrupted by the dual shocks of COVID-19 and the violent civil conflicts that erupted in November 2020). Findings are presented under the four areas of intervention (school internal efficiency, quality, equity and system strengthening) and the final section links these areas of intervention with learning outcomes.

Abstract:

Key messages • We found that there are limited studies analysing the effectiveness of e-cigarette cessation interventions in a clinical setting and of those that do exist the sample sizes are small, and the studies are underpowered to make any confident assessment of their effectiveness. • Clinical interventions appropriate for young people included nonpharmacologic interventions such as contingency management and behavioural counselling while NRT may be an effective pharmacologic intervention. • There was limited evidence to demonstrate the effectiveness of behavioural counselling as a stand-alone cessation strategy, but it may be effective in conjunction with other approaches. • Emerging evidence suggests that digital cessation interventions (i.e. text message or app-based delivery) may be the preferred mode of delivery for young people, however, their effectiveness in maintaining abstinence is yet to be confirmed. • Evidence suggests there is a need to quantify and create a consistent measure of nicotine intake to appropriately inform clinical treatment decisions. • Studies are generally very low quality, and it is not possible nor is it appropriate to make any definitive conclusions.

Full text

Abstract:

Patients are reluctant to use telemedicine health services. Telemedicine is an “experience good,” one that can be accurately evaluated and compared to its substitute (in this case, in-person visits) only after the product has been adopted and experienced. As such, an intervention that increases the probability of a first experience can have lasting effects. This article reports the results of a randomized field experiment conducted in collaboration with a health insurance company in Argentina. During the intervention, about two thousand households with no previous experience with telemedicine received periodic e-mails with information about the available services. It effectively increased the take-up and demand for telemedicine. Within the first eight months of the experiment, patients assigned to the treatment group were 6pp more likely to have used the service at least once (12pp higher for those who opened at least one e-mail.) This first use led to large cumulative effects over time. After eight months, the number of virtual consultations by the treatment group was six times larger than those of the control group. These results provide additional evidence about how information interventions can increase technological take-up within the health sector and add to the understanding of how behavioral barriers affect patients resistance to technological adoption.

Abstract:

The monitoring and evaluation (M&E) Guidelines and Framework presented in this document (and in the accompanying M&E Indicator Framework) aim to encourage stakeholders in the rural sanitation and hygiene sector to take a more comprehensive, comparable and people focused approach to monitoring and evaluation. Many M&E frameworks currently reflect the interests and ambitions of particular implementing agencies – that is, community-led total sanitation (CLTS) interventions focused on open-defecation free (ODF) outcomes in triggered communities; market-based sanitation interventions focused on the number of products sold and whether sanitation businesses were profitable; and sanitation finance interventions reporting the number of facilities built using financial support. Few M&E frameworks have been designed to examine the overall sanitation and hygiene situation – to assess how interventions have affected sanitation and hygiene outcomes across an entire area (rather than just in specific target communities); to look at who (from the overall population) benefitted from the intervention, and who did not; to report on the level and quality of service used; or examine whether public health has improved. Since 2015, the Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs) have extended and deepened the international monitoring requirements for sanitation and hygiene. The 2030 SDG sanitation target 6.2 includes requirements to: • Achieve access to adequate sanitation and hygiene for all • Achieve access to equitable sanitation and hygiene for all • End open defecation • Pay special attention to the needs of women and girls • Pay special attention to those in vulnerable situations The 2030 SDG sanitation target calls for universal use of basic sanitation services, and for the elimination of open defecation, both of which require M&E systems that cover entire administration areas (i.e. every person and community within a district) and which are able to identify people and groups that lack services, or continue unsafe practices. Fortunately, the SDG requirements are well aligned with the sector trend towards system strengthening, in recognition that governments are responsible both for the provision of sustainable services and for monitoring the achievement of sustained outcomes. This document provides guidelines on the monitoring and evaluation of rural sanitation and hygiene, and presents an M&E framework that outlines core elements and features for reporting on progress towards the 2030 SDG sanitation target (and related national goals and targets for rural sanitation and hygiene), while also encouraging learning and accountability. Given wide variations in the ambition, capacity and resources available for monitoring and evaluation, it is apparent that not all of the M&E processes and indicators described will be appropriate for all stakeholders. The intention is to provide guidelines and details on useful and progressive approaches to monitoring rural sanitation and hygiene, from which a range of rural sanitation and hygiene duty bearers and practitioners – including governments, implementation agencies, development partners and service providers – can select and use those most appropriate to their needs. Eventually, it is hoped that all of the more progressive M&E elements and features will become standard, and be incorporated in all sector monitoring systems.

Abstract:

Review question / Objective: Population: Children (＜ 18 years) who were definitively diagnosed with allergic rhinitis were included, without concomitant other diseases. No limitation on location or gender. This study will only consider randomized controlled trials (RCTs) of Chinese herbal medicine for treating patients with allergic rhinitis. Other studies, such as animal studies, reviews, case reports, non-controlled studies, and quasi-RCTs, were not included. Comparison: The control intervention is based on allergic rhinitis treatment guidelines or placebo. Outcome: Primary outcomes: Nasal itching, TNSS, or VAS scores. Secondary outcomes: Effective rates, Serum immunoglobulin E (IgE) level, Serum interleukin (IL - 4, IL - 10, IL - 33) levels, Recurrence rate, and Adverse effects. Study design: This meta-analysis is a secondary study, and the data were extracted from other people's work.

Abstract:

Abstract: The long-term goals of our research are to understand the regulation of sclerotial development and pathogenicity in S. sclerotior11111. The focus in this project was on the elucidation of the signaling events and environmental cues involved in the regulation of these processes, utilizing and continuously developing tools our research groups have established and/or adapted for analysis of S. sclerotiorum, Our stated objectives: To take advantage of the recent conceptual (ROS/PPs signaling) and technical (amenability of S. sclerotiorumto manipulations coupled with chemical genomics and next generation sequencing) developments to address and extend our fundamental and potentially applicable knowledge of the following questions concerning the involvement of REDOX signaling and protein dephosphorylation in the regulation of hyphal/sclerotial development and pathogenicity of S. sclerotiorum: (i) How do defects in genes involved in ROS signaling affect S. sclerotiorumdevelopment and pathogenicity? (ii) In what manner do phosphotyrosinephosphatases affect S. sclerotiorumdevelopment and pathogenicity and how are they linked with ROS and other signaling pathways? And (iii) What is the nature of activity of newly identified compounds that affect S. sclerotiori,111 growth? What are the fungal targets and do they interfere with ROS signaling? We have met a significant portion of the specific goals set in our research project. Much of our work has been published. Briefly. we can summarize that: (a) Silencing of SsNox1(NADPHoxidase) expression indicated a central role for this enzyme in both virulence and pathogenic development, while inactivation of the SsNox2 gene resulted in limited sclerotial development, but the organism remained fully pathogenic. (b) A catalase gene (Scatl), whose expression was highly induced during host infection is involved in hyphal growth, branching, sclerotia formation and infection. (c) Protein tyrosine phosphatase l (ptpl) is required for sclerotial development and is involved in fungal infection. (d) Deletion of a superoxidedismutase gene (Sssodl) significantly reduced in virulence on both tomato and tobacco plants yet pathogenicity was mostly restored following supplementation with oxalate. (e) We have participated in comparative genome sequence analysis of S. sclerotiorumand B. cinerea. (f) S. sclerotiorumexhibits a potential switch between biotrophic and necrotrophic lifestyles (g) During plant microbe interactions cell death can occur in both resistant and susceptible events. Non pathogenic fungal mutants S. sclerotior111n also cause a cell death but with opposing results. We investigated PCD in more detail and showed that, although PCD occurs in both circumstances they exhibit distinctly different features. The mutants trigger a restricted cell death phenotype in the host that unexpectedly exhibits markers associated with the plant hypersensitive (resistant) response. Using electron and fluorescence microscopy, chemical effectors and reverse genetics, we have established that this restricted cell death is autophagic. Inhibition of autophagy rescued the non-pathogenic mutant phenotype. These findings indicate that autophagy is a defense response in this interaction Thus the control of cell death, dictated by the plant (autophagy) סr the fungus (apoptosis), is decisive to the outcome of certain plant microbe interactions. In addition to the time and efforts invested towards reaching the specific goals mentioned, both Pls have initiated utilizing (as stated as an objective in our proposal) state of the art RNA-seq tools in order to harness this technology for the study of S. sclerotiorum. The Pls have met twice (in Israel and in the US), in order to discuss .נחd coordinate the research efforts. This included a working visit at the US Pls laboratory for performing RNA-seq experiments and data analysis as well as working on a joint publication (now published). The work we have performed expands our understanding of the fundamental biology (developmental and pathogenic) of S. sclerotioז111וז. Furthermore, based on our results we have now reached the conclusion that this fungus is not a bona fide necrotroph, but can also display a biotrophic lifestyle at the early phases of infection. The data obtained can eventually serve .נ basis of rational intervention with the disease cycle of this pathogen.
