Lessons Learned From the Use of Human-Centered Design Approaches to Improve Nutrition in Nigeria.

Improving children's diets from 6 to 24 months can support children's survival, growth, and development, but progress toward this goal has stalled globally. Human-centered design offers a new approach to resolving program challenges, especially when integrated with social and behavior change (SBC) theory and rigorous evaluation. Two human-centered design processes were conducted.

The International Bathymetric Chart of the Arctic Ocean Version 5.0.

Knowledge about seafloor depth, or bathymetry, is crucial for various marine activities, including scientific research, offshore industry, safety of navigation, and ocean exploration. Mapping the central Arctic Ocean is challenging due to the presence of perennial sea ice, which limits data collection to icebreakers, submarines, and drifting ice stations. The International Bathymetric Chart of the Arctic Ocean (IBCAO) was initiated in 1997 with the goal of updating the Arctic Ocean bathymetric portrayal.

Readability of Online Pediatric Orthopaedic Trauma Patient Education Materials.

Introduction: The importance of web resources for educating orthopaedic trauma patients is well recognized. Yet these resources often exceed the sixth-grade reading level and are too complex for most patients to understand. This study examines the readability of the American Academy of Orthopaedic Surgeons' (AAOS) pediatric trauma-related educational content compared with similar materials from the Pediatric Orthopaedic Society of North America (POSNA).

A quantitative multi-parameter mapping protocol standardized for clinical research in multiple sclerosis.

Quantitative magnetic resonance imaging (qMRI) involves mapping microstructure in standardized units sensitive to histological properties and supplements conventional MRI, which relies on contrast weighted images where intensities have no biophysical meaning. While measuring tissue properties such as myelin, iron or water content is desired in a disease context, qMRI changes may typically reflect mixed influences from aging or pre-clinical degeneration. We used a fast multi-parameter mapping (MPM) protocol for clinical routine at 3T to reconstruct whole-brain quantitative maps of magnetization transfer saturation (MT), proton density (PD), longitudinal (R1), and transverse relaxation rate (R2*) with 1.

Conservation futures 2050: Developing future scenarios to explore potential socio-economic developments and their impact on biodiversity.

Large scale changes in biodiversity and conservation management require long-term goals and planning across multiple sectors in the face of increasing global change. Major trends in land use and management interventions, species additions or losses, and climate are well recognized, but responses are still often short-term and fragmented across agencies and sectors. Scenario-building can be a powerful tool to imagine possible futures, integrating across sectors and disciplines and promoting long-term thinking and planning.
