Cybercrime victimisation among older adults: A probability sample survey in England and Wales.

Background: Younger people are more likely to report cybercrime than older people. As older people spend more time online, this may change. If similarly exposed, risk factors including social isolation and poor health could make older adults disproportionally susceptible.

The public health significance of prior homelessness: findings on multimorbidity and mental health from a nationally representative survey.

Aims: The associations of prior homelessness with current health are unknown. Using nationally representative data collected in private households in England, this study aimed to examine Common Mental Disorders (CMDs), physical health, alcohol/substance dependence, and multimorbidities in people who formerly experienced homelessness compared to people who never experienced homelessness.

Methods: This cross-sectional study utilised data from the 2007 and 2014 Adult Psychiatric Morbidity Surveys.

Gpnmb and Spp1 mark a conserved macrophage injury response masking fibrosis-specific programming in the lung.

Macrophages are required for healthy repair of the lungs following injury, but they are also implicated in driving dysregulated repair with fibrosis. How these 2 distinct outcomes of lung injury are mediated by different macrophage subsets is unknown. To assess this, single-cell RNA-Seq was performed on lung macrophages isolated from mice treated with LPS or bleomycin.

Healthcare disparities in access to surgical management and outcomes of patients with nonmetastatic primary liver cancer: A population based study from Louisiana tumor registry.

Background: This study aims to identify factors associated with disparities in receipt and outcomes of surgical interventions in patients with primary nonmetastatic liver cancers.

Methods: Cases from 2010 to 2020 were identified using Louisiana Tumor Registry. Four surgical categories were utilized: none, ablation, resection, transplant.

The bronchoalveolar lavage dilution conundrum: an updated view on a long-standing problem.

Bronchoalveolar lavage (BAL) is used by researchers to study molecular interactions within healthy and diseased human lungs. However, the utility of BAL fluid measurements may be limited by difficulties accounting for dilution of the epithelial lining fluid (ELF) sampled and inconsistent collection techniques. The use of endogenous markers to estimate ELF dilution has been proposed as a potential method to normalize acellular molecule measurements in BAL fluid, but these markers are also imperfect and prone to inaccuracy.
