Understanding the interactions that children and young people have with their natural and built environments: A survey to identify targets for active travel behaviour change in Wales.

Active travel offers many societal benefits, including improving people's mental and physical health and minimising our impacts on the environment. Increasing active travel is particularly important amongst children and young people (CYP), who are building habits which they will carry into adulthood. Studies on active travel amongst CYP are limited, however, with most research focusing on adult participants or on adult perceptions of children.

Advancing Health Equity: A Collaborative Framework to Address HIV Disparities in Georgia and Louisiana through Data, Education, and Policy Initiatives.

The United States grapples with over 30,000 new HIV infections annually, a challenge exacerbated by delayed diagnosis and treatment. HIV stigma hinders data collection and contributes to health disparities. High-quality data and a community-driven approach are critical to reducing these disparities.

Evaluation of WRF-Chem air quality forecasts during the AEROMMA and STAQS 2023 field campaigns.

A real-time air quality forecasting system was developed using the Weather Research and Forecasting model coupled with Chemistry (WRF-Chem) to provide support for flight planning activities during the NOAA Atmospheric Emissions and Reactions Observed from Megacities to Marine Areas (AEROMMA) and NASA Synergistic TEMPO Air Quality Science (STAQS) 2023 field campaigns. The forecasting system operated on two separate domains centered on Chicago, IL, and New York City, NY, and provided 72-hour predictions of atmospheric composition, aerosols, and clouds. This study evaluates the Chicago-centered forecasting system's 1-, 2-, and 3-day ozone (O) forecast skill for Chiwaukee Prairie, WI, a rural area downwind of Chicago that often experiences high levels of O pollution.

Sleepy without stimulation: subjective and objective sleepiness in actigraphy-verified natural short sleepers.

Natural short sleepers (NSS)-individuals who report minimal sleepiness or daytime dysfunction despite habitually sleeping less than the recommended amount (i.e., <7 h)-are a focus of growing interest in sleep research.

Evaluation of the TraumaGuard Balloon-in-Balloon Catheter Design for Intra-Abdominal Pressure Monitoring: Insights from Pig and Human Cadaver Studies.

: Intra-abdominal pressure (IAP) monitoring is crucial for the detection and prevention of intra-abdominal hypertension (IAH) and abdominal compartment syndrome (ACS). In the 1970s, air-filled catheters (AFCs) for urodynamic studies were introduced as a solution to overcome the limitations of water-perfused catheters. Recent studies have shown that for correct IAP measurement with traditional AFC, the bladder needs to be primed with 25 mL of saline solution to allow pressure wave transmission to the transducer outside of the body, which limits continuous IAP monitoring.
