A multivariate logistic regression model was used to determine the effects of fertility behaviors and healthcare usage on the occurrence of U5M adjusting with confounders. Results: U5M declined from 82.5 to 41.0 per 1000 livebirths during 1994–2014 and is projected to further reduce to 17.6 per 1000 livebirths by 2030. The study identified a noticeable regional variation in U5M with maternal high-risk fertility behaviours including age at birth <18 years (aOR: 1.84, 95% CI: 1.23–2.76) and birth interval <24 months (aOR: 1.56, 95% CI: 1.02–2.37) found to be significant determinants. There was a 39–53% decline in this rate of mortality among women that had used antenatal care services at least four times (aOR, 0.51, 95% CI: 0.27–0.97), delivery care (aOR, 0.47, 95% CI: 0.24–0.95), and had received postnatal care (aOR, 0.61, 95% CI: 0.41–0.91) in their last birth. Cesarean section was found to be associated with a 51% reduction in U5M (aOR, 0.49, 95% CI: 0.29–0.82) compared to its non-use. Conclusion: The Sustainable Development Goals require a U5M rate of 25 per 1000 livebirths to be achieved by 2030. This study suggests that with the current trend of reduction, Bangladesh will achieve this target before the deadline. This study also found that maternal high-risk fertility behaviours and non-use of maternal healthcare services are very prevalent in some regions of Bangladesh and have increased the occurrence of U5M in those areas. This suggests therefore, that policies and programmes designed to reduce the pregnancy rates of women that are at risk and to encourage an increase in the use of maternal healthcare services are needed.]]> Wed 26 Oct 2022 12:45:21 AEDT ]]> Contraceptive use among sexually active women living with HIV in western Ethiopia https://ogma.newcastle.edu.au/vital/access/ /manager/Repository/uon:38348 Wed 24 May 2023 12:55:56 AEST ]]> #chatsafe 2.0. updated guidelines to support young people to communicate safely online about self-harm and suicide: A Delphi expert consensus study https://ogma.newcastle.edu.au/vital/access/ /manager/Repository/uon:53234 Wed 20 Mar 2024 15:32:06 AEDT ]]> Patterns of contraceptive use through later reproductive years: A cohort study of Australian women with chronic disease https://ogma.newcastle.edu.au/vital/access/ /manager/Repository/uon:52706 Wed 20 Mar 2024 14:49:32 AEDT ]]> Survival of bladder or renal cancer in patients with CHEK2 mutations https://ogma.newcastle.edu.au/vital/access/ /manager/Repository/uon:49893 A and I157T. Predictors of survival were determined among CHEK2 pathogenic variant carriers using the Cox proportional hazards model. The median follow-up was 17.5 years. Covariates included age (≤60; >61 years), sex (female; male), clinical characteristics (stage: TNM, grade, histopathological type), smoking status (non-smoking; smoking) and cancer family history (negative; positive). Results: We found no impact of CHEK2 mutations on bladder or kidney cancer survival. However, we observed a possible increased survival in the subgroup of patients with stage T1 bladder cancer with CHEK2 mutations but this did not meet statistical significance (HR = 0.14; 95% CI 0.02–1.04; p = 0.055). Moreover, we observed that the missense mutations were more frequent in the low grade invasive bladder cancer patient group (OR = 7.9; 95% CI 1.50–42.1; p = 0.04) and in patients with bladder cancer with stage Ta (OR = 2.4; 95% CI 1.30–4.55; p = 0.006). The different results where missense mutations occurs less often we observed among patients with high grade invasive bladder cancer (OR = 0.12; 95% CI 0.02–0.66; p = 0.04) and those with stage T1 disease (OR = 0.2; 95% CI 0.07–0.76; p = 0.01). Our investigations revealed that any mutation in CHEK2 occurs more often among patients with stage Ta bladder cancer (OR = 2.0; 95% CI 1.19–3.47; p = 0.01) and less often in patients with stage T1 disease (OR = 0.31; 95% CI 0.12–0.78; p = 0.01). In the kidney cancer patients, truncating mutations were present more often in the group with clear cell carcinoma GII (OR = 8.0; 95% CI 0.95–67.7; p = 0.05). The 10-year survival for all CHEK2 mutation carriers with bladder cancer was 33% and for non-carriers 11% (p = 0.15). The 10-year survival for CHEK2 mutation carriers with kidney cancer 34% and for non-carriers 20% (p = 0.5). Conclusion: CHEK2 mutations were not associated with any change in bladder or kidney cancer survival regardless of their age, sex, smoking status and family history. We observed a potentially protective effect of CHEK2 mutations on survival for patients with stage T1 bladder cancer. CHEK2 missense mutations were more common among patients with low grade invasive bladder cancer and in patients with stage Ta diease. The frequencies of the I157T CHEK2 pathogenic variant were less in patients with high grade invasive bladder cancer and those with stage T1 disease. Among patients with bladder cancer with stage Ta disease, the OR for any mutation in CHEK2 was 2.0 but for those with stage T1 disease, the OR was 0.3. We observed truncating CHEK2 mutations were associated with kidney cancer patients with GII clear cell carcinoma.]]> Wed 14 Jun 2023 17:10:17 AEST ]]> Do factors across the World Health Organisation's International Classification of Functioning, Disability and Health framework relate to caregiver availability for community-dwelling older adults in Ghana? https://ogma.newcastle.edu.au/vital/access/ /manager/Repository/uon:47192 Wed 13 Mar 2024 19:10:29 AEDT ]]> Dengue in Dhaka, Bangladesh: hospital-based cross-sectional KAP assessment at Dhaka North and Dhaka South City Corporation area https://ogma.newcastle.edu.au/vital/access/ /manager/Repository/uon:43916 Wed 13 Mar 2024 08:57:05 AEDT ]]> Using a knowledge translation framework to identify health care professionals’ perceived barriers and enablers for personalised severe asthma care https://ogma.newcastle.edu.au/vital/access/ /manager/Repository/uon:45437 Wed 13 Mar 2024 08:08:20 AEDT ]]> Impacts of socio-economic determinants, spatial distance and climate factors on the confirmed cases and deaths of COVID-19 in China https://ogma.newcastle.edu.au/vital/access/ /manager/Repository/uon:44376 p < 0.05), but not obviously different in Hubei province (p > 0.05). The CCOPSPTT had significant correlation with socio-economic determinants (GDP and population), DW, climate and time after the outbreak of COVID-19 outside Hubei province (p < 0.05), while was only significantly related with GDP in Hubei province (p < 0.05). The DOPSPTT showed significant correlation with socio-economic determinants, DW, time and CCOPSPTT outside Hubei province (p < 0.05), while was significantly correlated with GDP and CCOPSPTT in Hubei province (p < 0.05). Compared with other factors, socio-economic determinants have the largest relative contribution to variance of CCOPSPTT in all studied cities (> 78%). The difference of DOPSPTT among cities was mainly affected by CCOPSPTT. Our results showed that influences of city types on the confirmed cases and death differed between Hubei and other provinces.

The primary outcome was good functional outcome at 90 days, defined as a modified Rankin Scale (mRS) score 0-2. follow-up infarct volume, core expansion and penumbral salvage volumes were secondary outcomes. Of 572 anterior circulation EVT patients, CTP source image data required to generate objective maps were available in 170, and a Target Mismatch was present in 151 (89%). The rate of 90-day good functional outcome was similar between Target Mismatch (53%) and Large Core Non-Mismatch groups (46%, p = 0.629). Median follow-up infarct volume in the Large Core Non-Mismatch group (104ml [IQR 25ml-189ml]) was larger than that in the Target Mismatch patients (16ml [8ml-47ml], p<0.001). Despite a lack of formal CTP selection criteria, the majority of patients treated at our centres had a Target Mismatch. Patients without Target Mismatch had larger follow-up infarct volumes, but the functional recovery rate was similar to that in Target Mismatch patients. Infarct volumes should be included as objective assessment criteria in the evaluation of the efficacy of EVT in non-Target Mismatch patients.]]> Tue 20 Feb 2024 16:05:37 AEDT ]]> The composite effect reveals that human (but not other primate) faces are special to humans https://ogma.newcastle.edu.au/vital/access/ /manager/Repository/uon:52576 Tue 17 Oct 2023 15:48:32 AEDT ]]> Determinants of change in blood pressure in Ghana: Longitudinal data from WHO-SAGE Waves 1-3 https://ogma.newcastle.edu.au/vital/access/ /manager/Repository/uon:41918 Tue 16 Aug 2022 14:24:31 AEST ]]> Multi-level factors associated with utilization of water, sanitation and hygiene services by mothers in Nepal https://ogma.newcastle.edu.au/vital/access/ /manager/Repository/uon:55152 Tue 16 Apr 2024 15:23:09 AEST ]]> Mental health and mental health help-seeking behaviors among first-generation voluntary African migrants: A systematic review https://ogma.newcastle.edu.au/vital/access/ /manager/Repository/uon:55148 Tue 16 Apr 2024 15:16:07 AEST ]]> Body fat prediction through feature extraction based on anthropometric and laboratory measurements https://ogma.newcastle.edu.au/vital/access/ /manager/Repository/uon:48302 Tue 14 Mar 2023 14:20:04 AEDT ]]> Making heads or tails of body inversion effects: do heads matter? https://ogma.newcastle.edu.au/vital/access/ /manager/Repository/uon:48298 Tue 14 Mar 2023 13:17:45 AEDT ]]> Is subject-specific musculoskeletal modelling worth the extra effort or is generic modelling worth the shortcut? https://ogma.newcastle.edu.au/vital/access/ /manager/Repository/uon:48287 Tue 14 Mar 2023 11:12:00 AEDT ]]> Understanding the value of brain donation for research to donors, next-of-kin and clinicians: A systematic review https://ogma.newcastle.edu.au/vital/access/ /manager/Repository/uon:54249 Tue 13 Feb 2024 13:26:06 AEDT ]]> Analytical methods for assessing retinal cell coupling using cut-loading https://ogma.newcastle.edu.au/vital/access/ /manager/Repository/uon:51638 Tue 12 Sep 2023 20:15:14 AEST ]]> Increased chronic disease prevalence among the younger generation: Findings from a population-based data linkage study to inform chronic disease ascertainment among reproductive-aged Australian women https://ogma.newcastle.edu.au/vital/access/ /manager/Repository/uon:44309 Tue 11 Oct 2022 16:12:27 AEDT ]]> Correlates of older adult inpatients' personal care provision to people with functional difficulties in Ghana https://ogma.newcastle.edu.au/vital/access/ /manager/Repository/uon:38924 Tue 08 Mar 2022 11:01:15 AEDT ]]> What mechanisms mediate prior probability effects on rapid-choice decision-making? https://ogma.newcastle.edu.au/vital/access/ /manager/Repository/uon:51432 Tue 05 Sep 2023 17:57:19 AEST ]]> Shared decision making in Australian physiotherapy practice: A survey of knowledge, attitudes, and self-reported use https://ogma.newcastle.edu.au/vital/access/ /manager/Repository/uon:43853 Tue 04 Oct 2022 12:00:33 AEDT ]]> Health and wellness in the Australian coal mining industry: a cross sectional analysis of baseline findings from the RESHAPE workplace wellness program https://ogma.newcastle.edu.au/vital/access/ /manager/Repository/uon:38093 'Health Workplace Framework and Model') which aims to provide a sustained approach to wellness in the workplace. This paper presents baseline findings from a pilot study that aimed to implement RESHAPE at three mine sites in NSW, Australia, and investigates the issue of overweight and obesity in the coal mining industry. Across three mine sites, 949 coal miners were examined cross-sectionally on a range of workplace, wellness, health, diet, and exercise factors using a paper-based survey. This was a predominantly male sample (90.4%) with the majority (59.2%) of participants aged 25-44 years. Selfreported height and weight measures indicated that less than 20 percent (18.9%) of participants were in a healthy BMI range, while there were effectively equal numbers of overweight (40.9%) and obese (39.1%) participants. Only 3.5% of participants met the daily recommendation for vegetables (5 serves) and shift-workers had greater association with elevated BMI compared to non-shift workers (B = 1.21, 95% CI: 0.23, 2.20, p = 0.016). Poor nutrition is likely to be a key component in elevated levels of overweight and obesity within this industry, with workplace factors compounding challenges workers face in implementing health behavior change. Future studies would benefit from assessing diet and physical activity knowledge in relation to recommendations and serving sizes.]]> Tue 03 Aug 2021 18:29:05 AEST ]]> Effect of balance training on footwork performance in badminton: An interventional study https://ogma.newcastle.edu.au/vital/access/ /manager/Repository/uon:52117 Thu 28 Sep 2023 15:03:18 AEST ]]> Multiple correspondence analysis as a tool for examining Nobel Prize data from 1901 to 2018 https://ogma.newcastle.edu.au/vital/access/ /manager/Repository/uon:44822 Thu 27 Oct 2022 09:51:34 AEDT ]]> Regulation of inflammatory genes in decidual cells: Involvement of the bromodomain and extra-terminal family proteins https://ogma.newcastle.edu.au/vital/access/ /manager/Repository/uon:52773 Thu 26 Oct 2023 14:54:24 AEDT ]]> Clinical, laboratory and radiological characteristics and outcomes of novel coronavirus (SARS-CoV-2) infection in humans: a systematic review and series of meta-analyses https://ogma.newcastle.edu.au/vital/access/ /manager/Repository/uon:37950 Thu 25 Nov 2021 12:29:58 AEDT ]]> Association between maternal high-risk fertility behaviour and perinatal mortality in Bangladesh: Evidence from the Demographic and Health Survey https://ogma.newcastle.edu.au/vital/access/ /manager/Repository/uon:53982 Thu 25 Jan 2024 12:57:08 AEDT ]]> Changes in the length of speeches in the plays of William Shakespeare and his contemporaries: A mixed models approach https://ogma.newcastle.edu.au/vital/access/ /manager/Repository/uon:51056 Thu 17 Aug 2023 10:19:58 AEST ]]> A survey of what legal populations believe and know about inattentional blindness and visual detection https://ogma.newcastle.edu.au/vital/access/ /manager/Repository/uon:54289 Thu 15 Feb 2024 14:45:40 AEDT ]]> Individual-, household- and community-level determinants of infant mortality in Ethiopia https://ogma.newcastle.edu.au/vital/access/ /manager/Repository/uon:38512 Thu 14 Oct 2021 09:46:08 AEDT ]]> High rate of partner violence during pregnancy in eastern Ethiopia: findings from a facility-based study https://ogma.newcastle.edu.au/vital/access/ /manager/Repository/uon:37577 Thu 14 Apr 2022 11:03:01 AEST ]]> Factors associated with hypertensive disorders of pregnancy in sub-Saharan Africa: a systematic and meta-analysis https://ogma.newcastle.edu.au/vital/access/ /manager/Repository/uon:37244 Thu 09 Dec 2021 11:03:26 AEDT ]]> How confidence in health care systems affects mobility and compliance during the COVID-19 pandemic https://ogma.newcastle.edu.au/vital/access/ /manager/Repository/uon:40163 Thu 06 Jul 2023 10:57:56 AEST ]]> An online survey of informal caregivers' unmet needs and associated factors https://ogma.newcastle.edu.au/vital/access/ /manager/Repository/uon:38559 Thu 04 Nov 2021 11:03:30 AEDT ]]> Abortion care pathways and service provision for adolescents in high-income countries: a qualitative synthesis of the evidence https://ogma.newcastle.edu.au/vital/access/ /manager/Repository/uon:38535 Mon 29 Jan 2024 17:49:44 AEDT ]]> A Genome-Wide Association Study of Total Child Psychiatric Problems Scores https://ogma.newcastle.edu.au/vital/access/ /manager/Repository/uon:50392 0.49), but not with autism or the less common adult disorders (schizophrenia, bipolar disorder, or eating disorders) (rG < 0.01).

Among current ENDS/ENNDS users, there was a significant association with ever (ARR 2⋅63 (95% CI: 1⋅94, 3⋅57; p<0⋅001, I2: 21⋅2%)), but not current cigarette use (ARR 1⋅88 (95% CI: 0⋅34, 10⋅30; p = 0⋅47, I2: 0%)) at follow up. For other tobacco use, ARR ranged between 1⋅55 (95% CI 1⋅07, 2⋅23) and 8⋅32 (95% CI: 1⋅20, 57⋅04) for waterpipe and pipes, respectively. Additionally, two studies examined the use of ENNDS (non-nicotine devices) and found a pooled adjusted RR of 2⋅56 (95% CI: 0⋅47, 13⋅94, p = 0.035). Conclusion: There is an urgent need for policies that regulate the availability, accessibility, and marketing of ENDS/ENNDS to children and adolescents. Governments should also consider adopting policies to prevent ENDS/ENNDS uptake and use in children and adolescents, up to and including a ban for this group.]]> Fri 28 Oct 2022 14:49:23 AEDT ]]> Development, validation and evaluation of an online medication review tool (MedReview) https://ogma.newcastle.edu.au/vital/access/ /manager/Repository/uon:45409 Fri 28 Oct 2022 14:36:32 AEDT ]]> Sodium alginate microencapsulation improves the short-term oral bioavailability of cannabidiol when administered with deoxycholic acid https://ogma.newcastle.edu.au/vital/access/ /manager/Repository/uon:45449 Fri 28 Oct 2022 14:15:35 AEDT ]]> Sertoli cell-enriched proteins in mouse and human testicular interstitial fluid https://ogma.newcastle.edu.au/vital/access/ /manager/Repository/uon:52812 in vivo and validated which of these are likely to arise primarily from Sertoli cells based on relevant mouse testis RNASeq datasets. We used a different, but complementary, approach to identify Sertoli cell-enriched proteins in human TIF, taking advantage of high-quality human testis genomic, proteomic and immunohistochemical datasets. We identified a total of 47 and 40 Sertoli cell-enriched proteins in mouse and human TIF, respectively, including 15 proteins that are conserved in both species. Proteins with potential roles in angiogenesis, the regulation of Leydig cells or steroidogenesis, and immune cell regulation were identified. The data suggests that some of these proteins are secreted, but that Sertoli cells also deposit specific proteins into TIF via the release of extracellular vesicles. In conclusion, we have identified novel Sertoli cell-enriched proteins in TIF that are candidates for regulating somatic cell-cell communication and testis function.]]> Fri 27 Oct 2023 15:56:20 AEDT ]]> Going their own way-male recreational runners and running-related injuries: A qualitative thematic analysis https://ogma.newcastle.edu.au/vital/access/ /manager/Repository/uon:52793 Fri 27 Oct 2023 14:08:39 AEDT ]]> Experiences and preferences for advance care planning following a diagnosis of dementia: Findings from a cross-sectional survey of carers https://ogma.newcastle.edu.au/vital/access/ /manager/Repository/uon:52789 Fri 27 Oct 2023 10:22:21 AEDT ]]> What are the biopsychosocial risk factors associated with pain in postpartum runners? Development of a clinical decision tool https://ogma.newcastle.edu.au/vital/access/ /manager/Repository/uon:48639 19 (OR 2.48; 95% CI 1.44, 4.28), previous running injury (OR 1.95; 95% CI 1.31, 2.91), vaginal delivery (OR 1.63; 95% CI 1.06, 2.50), incontinence (OR 1.95; 95% CI 1.31, 2.84) and <6.8 hours of sleep on average per night (OR 1.89; 95% CI 1.28, 2.78). Having ≥ 4 risk factors increased the probability of having running-related pain to 61.2%. Conclusion: The results of this study provide a deeper understanding of the risk factors for running-related pain in postpartum runners. With this information, clinicians can monitor and educate postpartum runners initiating or returning to running. Education could include details of risk factors, combinations of factors for pain and strategies to mitigate risks. Coaches can adapt running workload accounting for fatigue and sleep fluctuations to optimize recovery and performance. Future longitudinal studies that follow asymptomatic postpartum women returning to running after childbirth over time should be performed to validate these findings.]]> Fri 24 Mar 2023 13:23:41 AEDT ]]> Defining and quantifying fatigue in the rugby codes https://ogma.newcastle.edu.au/vital/access/ /manager/Repository/uon:51952 Fri 22 Sep 2023 17:06:03 AEST ]]> Exploring the association between self-efficacy and future utility beliefs in mathematics: A practical tutorial on correspondence analysis https://ogma.newcastle.edu.au/vital/access/ /manager/Repository/uon:51950 Fri 22 Sep 2023 17:04:13 AEST ]]> The influence of acculturation on the risk of preterm birth and low birthweight in migrant women residing in Western Australia https://ogma.newcastle.edu.au/vital/access/ /manager/Repository/uon:53143 10 years and did not use an interpreter, had similar risk of term-LBW but 43% (aOR 1.43, 95% CI 1.14–1.78) higher risk of spontaneous PTB than the Australian-born women. Conclusion: Acculturation is an important factor to consider when providing antenatal care to prevent PTB and LBW in migrants. Acculturation may reduce the risk of term-LBW but, conversely, may increase the risk of spontaneous PTB in migrant women residing in Western Australia. However, the effect may vary by ethnicity and warrants further investigation to fully understand the processes involved.]]> Fri 17 Nov 2023 11:50:30 AEDT ]]> Gestational breast cancer in New South Wales: A population-based linkage study of incidence, management, and outcomes https://ogma.newcastle.edu.au/vital/access/ /manager/Repository/uon:39719 Fri 17 Jun 2022 17:31:03 AEST ]]> Health and wellness in the Australian coal mining industry: An analysis of pre-post findings from the RESHAPE workplace health promotion program. https://ogma.newcastle.edu.au/vital/access/ /manager/Repository/uon:51707 Fri 15 Sep 2023 14:09:33 AEST ]]> Gestational weight gain and its effect on birth outcomes in sub-Saharan Africa: systematic review and meta-analysis https://ogma.newcastle.edu.au/vital/access/ /manager/Repository/uon:40166 50% among nine studies. Among underweight women, the percentage of women who gained inadequate gestational weight ranged from 67% to 98%. Only two studies were included in the meta-analyses to evaluate the association of gestational weight gain with pre-eclampsia and macrosomia. No difference was observed among women who gained inadequate and adequate gestational weight regarding experiencing pre-eclampsia (RR, 0.71; 95% CI: 0.22, 2.28, P = 0.57). Excessive gestational weight gain was not significantly associated with macrosomia compared to adequate weight gain (RR, 0.68; 95% CI: 0.38, 1.22, P = 0.20). Conclusion: A substantial proportion of sub-Saharan African women gain inadequate gestational weight particularly high among underweight women. Future interventions would need to design effective pre-pregnancy weight management strategies.]]> Fri 15 Jul 2022 10:39:18 AEST ]]> Health services costs for lung cancer care in Australia: estimates from the 45 and up study https://ogma.newcastle.edu.au/vital/access/ /manager/Repository/uon:40089 p<0.0001), smoking (p<0.0001) and unknown stage (p = 0.002). There was no evidence of differences by year of diagnosis or sex (both p>0.50). For 465 cases diagnosed 2014–2015, 29% had subsidised molecular testing for targeted therapy/immunotherapy and 4% had subsidised targeted therapies. Conclusions: Lung cancer healthcare costs are strongly associated with survival-related factors. Costs appeared stable over the period 2006–2013.

The odds of (mild or severe) myotoxicity was lower in patients that received early antivenom (within 6 hours post-bite) compared to those that received late or no antivenom (odd ratio was 0.186; 95% confidence interval, 0.052–0.664). A population pharmacokinetic-pharmacodynamic (PKPD) model was developed to describe the relationship between the time course of venom (a mixture of toxins) and effect (elevated CK). In addition, a kinetic-pharmacodynamic (KPD) model was developed to describe the relationship between time course of a theoretical toxin and effect. Model development and parameter estimation was performed using NONMEM v7.3. No single set of parameter values from either the PKPD or KPD models were found that could accurately describe the time course of different levels of severity of myotoxicity. The predicted theoretical toxin half-life from the KPD model was 11 ± 3.9 hours compared to the half-life of venom of 5.3 ± 0.36 hours. This indicates that the putative causative toxin’s concentration-time profile does not parallel that of venom. Conclusion: Early antivenom administration reduces the incidence of myotoxicity. The venom concentration profile does not appear to be the driver for myotoxicity following envenomation. Additional factors that affect the sensitivity of the patient to snake venom/toxins must be explored to understand the relationship with myotoxicity.]]> Fri 02 Jun 2023 17:21:37 AEST ]]> Validity of muscular fitness self-assessments in the ecofit smartphone application: A correlation study https://ogma.newcastle.edu.au/vital/access/ /manager/Repository/uon:51361 Fri 01 Sep 2023 13:41:53 AEST ]]> Cost effectiveness of temporary isolation rooms in acute care settings in Singapore https://ogma.newcastle.edu.au/vital/access/ /manager/Repository/uon:51335 Fri 01 Sep 2023 10:18:03 AEST ]]>
