The State of STEMI Care Across NSW: A Comparison of Rural, Regional, and Metropolitan Centres.

Background: At a global level, regional variation in the management of ST-elevation myocardial infarction (STEMI) is influenced by patient demographics and geography. Rural patients with STEMI are disadvantaged in reaching timely care owing to distance and limited ambulance and healthcare resources. Optimising models of STEMI care is key to overcoming the excess rural vs metropolitan cardiovascular morbidity and mortality.

Disability and intimate partner violence experience among women in rural Samoa: A cross-sectional analysis.

Background: Women with disabilities experience higher rates of intimate partner violence (IPV). Evidence suggests this violence often manifests in more subtle and severe forms over longer periods of time. There is limited evidence on this association in the Pacific Islands region, despite facing one of the highest global prevalences of IPV.

A Unique Presentation of Diffuse Intraductal Papillary Mucinous Neoplasm of Bile Duct Successfully Treated With Orthotopic Liver Transplant and Pancreaticoduodenectomy Procedure: A Case Report.

Biliary intraepithelial neoplasm (BilIN) and intraductal papillary mucinous neoplasm of the bile duct (IPMN-B) are recognized as the two main precursors to biliary carcinoma. Surgical resection is the mainstay of treatment, with pancreaticoduodenectomy for extrahepatic biliary duct disease involving the pancreatic or distal portion of the bile duct, and bile duct and liver resection for perihilar and intrahepatic bile duct involvement. For diffuse IPMN-B with involvement of the entirety of the biliary epithelium of both intrahepatic and extrahepatic biliary systems, there is no well-documented consensus on treatment due to its rarity.

Soft x-ray tomography on the high field spherical tokamak ST40.

As part of its roadmap to developing commercial fusion plants, Tokamak Energy Ltd. operates the high field spherical tokamak ST40. Studies on this device will help to expand the high field spherical tokamak physics basis by characterizing confinement and the fusion triple product.
