Several publications have indicated potential benefit from collaboration with industry regarding wider use of anonymised routine NHS healthcare data. However, there is limited guidance regarding exactly how such collaborations between NHS hospitals and industry partners should best be carried out, and specific issues that need to be addressed at an individual project or collaboration level to achieve desired benefit. Specifically, routine health data are complex, not collected in a format optimised for secondary use, and often require interpretation based on clinical understanding of the medical conditions or patients.

Introduction: Although military members often encounter significant atypical stressors while serving, many service members are still reluctant to seek mental health (MH) treatment. Help-seeking behavior for MH needs is a rising concern for active duty Air Force personnel. Conditions such as post-traumatic stress disorder, depression, anxiety, and substance abuse are just a few issues that military members deal with, but things like stigma, attitudes toward MH, and behavioral control might keep these individuals from seeking services.

We use the results of relativistic hydrodynamic simulations of jet-interstellar medium (ISM) interactions in a galaxy with a radio-loud AGN to quantify the extent of ionization in the central few kpcs of the gaseous galactic disc. We perform post-process radiative transfer of AGN radiation through the simulated gaseous jet-perturbed disc to estimate the extent of photo-ionization by the AGN with an incident luminosity of 10 erg s. We also map the gas that is collisionally ionized due to shocks driven by the jet.
