The art and craft of anatomy.

Understanding human anatomy is crucial for improving public health outcomes; however, effective methods of engaging the public in this domain remain underexplored. This report investigates four hands-on, creative, and accessible methods for enhancing anatomical knowledge during public engagement events: drawing, clay modeling, needle felting, and baking. Drawing on the principles of the Portal to Public Framework and adult learning theory, we explore how each method offers ethical and inexpensive opportunities for interactive learning, devoid of complex health, and safety and ethical concerns.

Accelerated molecular aging in socioeconomically disadvantaged neighborhoods: A racial/ethnic comparison.

In the US, racial/ethnic health disparities are undeniable. These disparities partially stem from residing in low socioeconomic neighborhoods, a circumstance to which racial/ethnic minorities are disproportionately exposed. Associations between socioeconomic status (SES) and health may have some underlying molecular mechanisms reflected in the epigenome.

Characterisation of Tasmanian leatherwood (Eucryphia lucida) honey according to geographical origin.

In this study, the chemical composition, physico-chemical properties and antioxidant activities of leatherwood honey from different locations with different climate across Tasmania were compared. Concentrations of 14 volatiles in the GC-MS profiles, 9 volatiles in the GC-FID profiles and 29 phenolic compounds in the HPLC-DAD/MS profiles along with pH, electrical conductivity, colour, hydrogen peroxide accumulation and antioxidant activity differed significantly between South and North samples. Correlations were found between beehive elevation and four unknown compounds U226 (R = 0.

Worse Nursing-Sensitive Indicators in Black-serving Hospitals.

Background: In hospitals that serve disproportionately patients of black race, here termed Black-serving hospitals, nurse staffing is worse, mortality rates are higher, and nursing-sensitive indicators may be worse than in other hospitals, but this evidence has not been compiled.

Objective: The study objective was to examine whether nursing-sensitive indicators, which measure changes in patient health status directly affected by nursing care, differ in hospitals where Black patients predominantly access their care, as compared to other hospitals.

Methods: To fulfill the objective, a cross-sectional design using publicly available 2019 to 2022 Hospital Compare and 2019 Medicare Provider Analysis and Review (MEDPAR) and Case Mix Index file databases was used.
