Background: Areas of conduction disorders play an important role in both initiation and perpetuation of AF and can be recognized by specific changes in unipolar potential morphology. For example, EGM fractionation may be caused by asynchronous activation of adjacent cardiomyocytes because of structural barriers such as fibrotic strands. However, it is unknown whether there are sex differences in unipolar potential morphology.

- * Interviews with 142 PLWTB revealed that women often self-isolated due to stigma but maintained family connections that aided their access to mental and tangible resources (MTRs), while men faced active exclusion that limited their resource access.
- * The findings highlight the need for gender-responsive interventions, as women's familial ties supported resilience despite stigma, whereas men's social exclusion increased vulnerability and reduced their ability to access necessary resources during illness.
Article Synopsis
- * The study examined how backwashing impacts the microbial community and chemical composition in a dual-media filter of anthracite and sand while tracking the removal efficiency of Fe, Mn, and NH over time.
- * Results showed that backwashing improved Fe removal efficiency and led to a mixed microbial community across the filter layers, with specific microorganisms playing key roles in oxidation and nitrification processes.
Background: A central challenge to closing the mental health treatment gap in low- and middle-income countries (LMICs) is determining the most effective pathway for delivering evidence-based mental health services. We are conducting a cluster-randomized, Type 2 hybrid implementation-effectiveness trial across 20 districts of Mozambique called the Partnerships in Research to Implement and Disseminate Sustainable and Scalable EBPs (PRIDE) program. Following training of nonspecialized providers in facilitation of evidence-based treatments for mental health and informed by the Consolidated Framework for Implementation Research (CFIR), we identified how PRIDE compares to care as usual and the perceived barriers and facilitators of implementation and modifications needed for widescale service delivery and scale-up.

The mitochondrial genome of is 121,350 base pairs in length with a G + C content of 30.19%. Phylogenetic analysis showed that grouped with other members of the Xylariaceae, with which its mitogenome also shares a broadly similar architecture and gene content.
