Comparing the Introduction and Implementation of Noninvasive Prenatal Testing (NIPT) in Japan, the Netherlands, and the United States: An Integrative Review.

Previous studies suggest that NIPT's implementation differed widely across countries but offer limited insight into what shaped these differences. To address this gap, we conducted an in-depth analysis of how NIPT was incorporated into prenatal care in the US, the Netherlands, and Japan-countries with similar economic status-to identify actionable lessons. We conducted an integrative literature review on the process of introducing and implementing NIPT, stakeholders' roles, documented considerations in the decision to introduce NIPT, implementation choices, and NIPT uptake.

Governance and resilience as entry points for transforming food systems in the countdown to 2030.

Due to complex interactions, changes in any one area of food systems are likely to impact-and possibly depend on-changes in other areas. Here we present the first annual monitoring update of the indicator framework proposed by the Food Systems Countdown Initiative, with new qualitative analysis elucidating interactions across indicators. Since 2000, we find that 20 of 42 indicators with time series have been trending in a desirable direction, indicating modest positive change.

Long-term mortality of Dutch COVID-19 patients admitted to the intensive care medicine: a retrospective analysis from a national quality registry.

Objective: To describe the 12-month mortality of Dutch COVID-19 intensive care unit patients, the total COVID-19 population and various subgroups on the basis of the number of comorbidities, age, sex, mechanical ventilation, and vasoactive medication use.

Methods: We included all patients admitted with COVID-19 between March 1, 2020, and March 29, 2022, from the Dutch National Intensive Care (NICE) database. The crude 12-month mortality rate is presented via Kaplan-Meier survival curves for each patient subgroup.

Relationships between pasture mass at paddock level and cow data derived from GPS and behavior-monitoring on-animals sensors in rotationally grazed dairy systems.

Data from behavior-monitoring and location (global positioning system) devices fitted to dairy cows may improve our understanding of how animal behavior and movement are associated with feed availability and quality. We hypothesized that data from behavior-monitoring and location sensors may be associated with feed availability in a paddock within a rotationally grazed dairy system. To investigate this, 100 cows were randomly assigned to one of 4 groups (n = 25 cows per group) and allocated to different target pasture allocations to meet either 80%, 100%, or 120% of their estimated ME requirements across 2 experimental periods (n = 20 d per experimental period), during late-spring (Experimental Period 1; November 7 to November 26 2021) and late-summer (Experimental Period 2; 27 February to 18 March 2022).
