When complex public health and health services interventions are implemented in real-world settings, adaptations should be expected, embraced, and studied rather than suppressed and ignored. A substantial amount of recent research has been conducted on the assessment of some types of adaptations, and interest in guiding adaptations to both interventions and implementation strategies is growing. However, there is still a need to investigate the optimal ways to systematically and pragmatically document, analyze, and iteratively guide adaptations as well as to measure the impact of those adaptations on implementation and effectiveness outcomes.

Background: Understanding environmental correlates of sedentary behaviour (SB) among young people is important as such data can identify approaches to limit sedentary time. This paper estimates associations of parent-reported neighbourhood and adolescent-reported home environments with SB among adolescents aged 11-19 years from 14 countries.

Methods: In the International Physical activity and the Environment Network (IPEN) Adolescent Study (an observational, cross-sectional multi-country study), adolescents wore a triaxial accelerometer for seven days that assessed sedentary time (ST).

Heat stress can increase disease risk in fishes by reducing immune function. Interactions between redband trout (Oncorhynchus mykiss gairdneri) and Flavobacterium columnare, a causative agent of columnaris disease, provide an opportunity to investigate the effects of temperature on immune function and disease resistance during periods of thermal stress. We conducted three trials to characterise differences in immune function and mortality between redband trout held at 18°C and 21°C following challenge with F.

Article Synopsis
  • The COVID-19 pandemic revealed health disparities in underserved Latino/a communities, particularly regarding testing access.
  • The CO-CREATE project developed a community-driven, culturally-tailored COVID-19 testing program in San Ysidro in partnership with local health organizations.
  • Over two years, the program provided 24,422 tests to a primarily Latino/a population, significantly enhancing testing rates and emphasizing the need for future public health strategies to improve access for underserved communities.
