The author describes "recent changes taking place in immigrant communities in [Umbria,] Italy.... After highlighting the main characteristics of the foreign presence in Umbria, the article looks at its modes of economic integration in the regional labor market. Results seem to indicate that there is a gradual strengthening of the occupational position of immigrants, not matched by their level of social integration." (SUMMARY IN ENG AND FRE)

Intergenerational connectedness broadly encompasses relations among humans, lands, and all living and spiritual beings, and functions as an important part of Indigenous well-being. Many public health campaigns and interventions aim to promote connectedness to support holistic wellness and reduce health inequities. Currently, however, there are no measurement tools to assess intergenerational connectedness to support culturally grounded research and program evaluation.

Ventilator-associated pneumonia (VAP) is a frequent complication in injured patients. Multiplex polymerase chain reaction (PCR) facilitates rapid identification of many respiratory pathogens prior to formal culture results. Our objective was to evaluate the effect of multiplex PCR implementation in a trauma intensive care unit (TICU) on antibiotic utilization and de-escalation.

Background: Domestic violence (DV) encompasses a pattern of psychological, physical, sexual, financial, and/or emotional abuse, manifesting through assault, threats, and intimidation. Economic and social stressors in conjunction with the COVID-19 pandemic escalated DV cases worldwide, including those in Albania. Socioeconomic vulnerabilities worsened the situation, with DV-related complaints to non-governmental organizations (NGOs) in Albania increasing by 60% between March and May 2020, compared to the same period in 2019.

Harnessing intelligence from brain cells in vitro requires a multidisciplinary approach integrating wetware, hardware, and software. Wetware comprises the in vitro brain cells themselves, where differentiation from induced pluripotent stem cells offers ethical scalability; hardware typically involves a life support system and a setup to record the activity from and deliver stimulation to the brain cells; and software is required to control the hardware and process the signals coming from and going to the brain cells. This review provides a broad summary of the foundational technologies underpinning these components, along with outlining the importance of technology integration.

Department of Chemistry and The Institute for Laser, Photonics, and Biophotonics, University at Buffalo, The State University of New York, Buffalo, NY, USA.
Background: Nanomedicine offers a number of innovative strategies to address major public health burdens, including complex respiratory illnesses. In this work, we introduce a multi-drug nanoparticle fabricated using femtosecond laser ablation for the treatment of influenza, SARS-CoV-2, and their co-infections.
Methods: The SARS-CoV-2 antiviral, remdesivir; the influenza antiviral, baloxavir marboxil; and the anti-inflammatory, dexamethasone, were co-crystalized and then ablated in aqueous media using a femtosecond pulsed laser and subsequently surface modified with the cationic polymer, chitosan, or poly-d-lysine.
