SPOON: an observational, cross-sectional study of perceptions and expectations of adults with generalised myasthenia gravis in France.

Objectives: To capture patient perceptions about living with myasthenia gravis (MG) with respect to aspirations and ways to improve treatment.

Design: Online patient survey.

Setting: Patients recruited by MG patient associations or at MG reference treatment centres.

Qualitative service evaluation of a multimodal pilot service for early detection of liver disease in high-risk groups: 'Alright My Liver?'.

Objective: Liver disease is a growing cause of premature death in the UK. The National Health Service in England (NHS England) has funded regional early detection programmes through Community Liver Health Check pilots. 'Alright My Liver?' is Bristol and Severn's pilot service offering early detection of liver disease through screening events serving populations at risk, including people with a history of drug or alcohol use, type 2 diabetes and obesity.

Using Public Funeral and Obituary Listings to Identify Spikes in Excess Mortality in One Appalachian County.

Introduction: Delays (10-22 months) in availability of official state and county-level mortality data could have significant public health consequences. The COVID-19 pandemic illuminated the need for health officials to access timely death data to identify unexpected increases in mortality in their communities.

Purpose: The purpose of this study is to determine if funeral home listings and/or newspaper obituaries could help identify excess mortality on the local level, prior to the availability of official death records.

Fingerprints of ordered self-assembled structures in the liquid phase of a hard-core, square-shoulder system.

We investigate the phase ordering (pattern formation) of systems of two-dimensional core-shell particles using Monte Carlo (MC) computer simulations and classical density functional theory (DFT). The particles interact via a pair potential having a hard core and a repulsive square shoulder. Our simulations show that on cooling, the liquid state structure becomes increasingly characterized by long wavelength density modulations and on further cooling forms a variety of other phases, including clustered, striped, and other patterned phases.
