Mapping the landscape and evidence of cross-sectoral collaboration models targeting individuals referred for assessment of attention-deficit hyperactivity disorder or autism spectrum disorder: protocol for a scoping review.

Introduction: Neurodevelopmental disorders, notably attention-deficit hyperactivity disorder (ADHD) and autism spectrum disorder (ASD), present substantial challenges in mental health. Individuals referred for assessment in a psychiatric unit experience complex needs. This implies that their needs necessitate coordination across multiple sectors.

Zika Virus Infection in Pregnant Traveler Returning to Denmark from Phuket, Thailand, 2024.

We report a case of Zika virus (ZIKV) infection in a pregnant woman from Denmark who traveled to Thailand during her first trimester. Late in the second trimester, severe microcephaly was diagnosed in the fetus, and ZIKV infection was confirmed. Travelers and clinicians should be aware of ongoing ZIKV risk in Thailand.

Application scenarios for a mobile hearing aid demonstrator with headphone form factor.

Objective: To describe application scenarios of a mobile device that provides a practical means for showcasing potential hearing aid benefits.

Design: A prototype of a hearing aid demonstrator based on circumaural headphones and a mobile signal processing platform was developed, providing core functions of a hearing aid, including several gain presets, in a hygienic, robust, and easy-to-use form factor. Speech intelligibility outcomes with the demonstrator and broadband level adaptations as potential fitting references were compared to outcomes with the own hearing aids of hearing-impaired participants.

Identification and characterisation of temporal abundance of microRNAs in synovial fluid from an experimental equine model of osteoarthritis.

Background: MicroRNAs, a class of small noncoding RNAs, serve as post-transcriptional regulators of gene expression and are present in a stable and quantifiable form in biological fluids. MicroRNAs may influence intra-articular responses and the course of disease, but very little is known about their temporal changes in osteoarthritis.

Objectives: To identify miRNAs and characterise the temporal changes in their abundance in SF from horses with experimentally induced osteoarthritis.

High-throughput non-homogenous 3D polycaprolactone scaffold for cancer cell and cancer-associated fibroblast mini-tumors to evaluate drug treatment response.

High-throughput screening (HTS) three-dimensional (3D) tumor models are a promising approach for cancer drug discovery, as they more accurately replicate cell behavior than two-dimensional (2D) models. However, assessing and comparing current 3D models for drug efficacy remains essential, given the significant influence of cellular conditions on treatment response. To develop mimicking 3D models, we evaluated two HTS 3D models established in 96-well plates with 3D polycaprolactone (PCL) scaffolds fabricated using two distinct methods, resulting in scaffolds with either homogenous or non-homogenous fiber networks.
