Functional somatic symptoms in Emergency Department frequent presenters.

Background: Patients with Functional Somatic Symptoms (FSS) are frequently encountered within healthcare settings such as Emergency Departments (ED). There is limited research regarding characterisation and frequency of FSS within frequent presenters to ED and no previous Australian evidence. This study aims to fill this gap.

Assisted Active Learning for Model-Based Method Development in Liquid Chromatography.

In recent decades, there has been a growing interest in fully automated methods for tackling complex optimization problems across various fields. Active learning (AL) and its variant, assisted active learning (AAL), incorporating guidance or assistance from external sources into the learning process, play key roles in this automation by enabling the autonomous selection of optimal experimental conditions to efficiently explore the problem space. These approaches are particularly valuable in situations wherein experimentation is costly or time-consuming.

Understanding and optimising gratitude interventions: the right methods for the right people at the right time.

Objective: Gratitude has consistently been associated with various beneficial health-related outcomes, including subjective wellbeing, positive mental health, and positive physical health. In light of such effects, positive psychology researchers and practitioners have often implemented gratitude interventions in an attempt to build individuals' orientations toward appreciation and thankfulness. Recent meta-analyses and reviews have revealed, however, that these interventions often have mixed effects on gratitude or other health outcomes.

Mental health impacts of climate change and extreme weather events on mothers.

The perinatal period is a time of increased vulnerability for perinatal mood and anxiety disorders (PMADs). Emotional trauma is a risk factor for PMAD development and is common among survivors of extreme weather events (EWEs), which are becoming more frequent and intense as the climate crisis progresses. EWE-related stress and anxiety have not been extensively studied in the perinatal population.

Detailed comparison of in-house developed and commercially available heart-cutting and selective comprehensive two-dimensional liquid chromatography systems.

Recently, two-dimensional liquid chromatography (2D-LC) has become a popular approach to analyze complex samples. This is partly due to the introduction of commercial 2D-LC systems. In the past, 2D-LC was carried out on in-house developed setups, typically consisting of several switching valves and sample loops as the interface between the two dimensions.
