"Make sure that everybody feels there is a space for them": Understanding and promoting appearance inclusivity at university.

Appearance concerns are a pervasive issue affecting many university students and contributing to poor psychosocial and academic outcomes. To combat these, action is needed by universities to promote appearance inclusivity. The current study used inductive qualitative methods to explore students' lived and/or living experiences and concerns relating to their physical appearance and views on how to achieve an appearance inclusive university.

How safe and effective are paediatric virtual fracture clinics? A systematic review.

Introduction: Virtual fracture clinics (VFC) involve a consultant-led multidisciplinary team meeting where cases are reviewed before a telephone consultation with the patient. VFCs have the advantages of reducing waiting times, outpatient appointments and time off school compared to face-to-face (F2F) fracture clinics. There has been a surge in VFC use since the COVID-19 pandemic but there are still concerns over safety in the paediatric population.

Psychosocial Interventions for Children and Young People With Visible Differences Resulting From Appearance-Altering Conditions, Injury, or Treatment Effects: An Updated Systematic Review.

Objective: Children and young people with visible differences can experience psychosocial difficulties, such as anxiety and teasing by others. Interventions targeting difficulties have previously been reviewed by Jenkinson et al. This review aimed to identify and critically assess recent studies evaluating the effectiveness of psychosocial interventions for children and young people with visible differences on psychosocial wellbeing, self-esteem, and social experiences and compare the findings with Jenkinson et al.

Multimodal Neuroimaging Summary Scores as Neurobiological Markers of Psychosis.

Background And Hypothesis: Structural brain alterations are well-established features of schizophrenia but they do not effectively predict disease/disease risk. Similar to polygenic risk scores in genetics, we integrated multifactorial aspects of brain structure into a summary "Neuroscore" and examined its potential as a marker of disease.

Study Design: We extracted measures from T1-weighted scans and diffusion tensor imaging (DTI) models from three studies with schizophrenia and healthy individuals.

Re-suspension of T(1)44 vaccine cultures of Mycoplasma mycoides subsp mycoides SC in 1 molar MgSO(4) causes a drop in pH and a rapid reduction in titre.

The effect of reconstituting freeze-dried vaccine cultures of Mycoplasma mycoides subsp. mycoides small colony biotype (MmmSC) strain T(1)44 grown in standard vaccine medium using variable quantities of un-buffered solutions of 1 M MgSO(4) (the current O.I.

Ligation of arabinogalactan to peptidoglycan in the cell wall of Mycobacterium smegmatis requires concomitant synthesis of the two wall polymers.

To study the late events of cell wall assembly in Mycobacterium smegmatis, specific in vivo radiolabelling of exponentially growing liquid cultures over periods of less than one cell generation were carried out. N-Acetyl-[(14)C]glucosamine was used to label peptidoglycan and [(14)C]glucose to label arabinogalactan and arabinomannan. Over periods of several generations, radioactive cell wall material was turned over as soluble autolysis products into the culture fluid.
