Mental health of Filipino seafarers and its implications for seafarers' education.
Int Marit Health

Seafarers International Research Centre, Cardiff University, Cardiff, United Kingdom.
This narrative review examines current academic literature on the mental health of Filipino seafarers working internationally, including the mental health effects of coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19). Framed within a rights-based approach, it aims to identify and analyse emerging themes on Filipino seafarers' mental health literature to understand what these studies potentially mean for the improvement of seafarers' education on mental health. Based on a broad selection criteria, 28 eligible papers demonstrate collectively three key findings: firstly, there is paucity in published research on seafarers' mental health; secondly, the majority of published studies are associated with a recent piracy crisis, where a significant number of mariners were attacked, taken as hostages, or killed; thirdly, three key areas emerged under which research on Filipino seafarers' mental health can be organized: the medical repatriation of seafarers, system of care for the mental health of seafarers including the diagnostic standards used, and seafarers' experiences and conceptions of mental health including the mental health effects of COVID-19.

Colistin is used as the "last resort" to treat infections caused by multidrug-resistant , which is at the top of the World Health Organization's list of the most dangerous bacterial species that threaten human health. Unfortunately, colistin resistance has emerged in To broaden the study of the resistance mechanism of colistin in , we obtained colistin-resistant mutants via two methods: (i) screening and isolation from a -based ATCC 19606 transposon mutant library; (ii) selection from challenge of ATCC 19606 with successively increasing concentrations of colistin. A total of 41 mutants with colistin MIC of 4 μg/ml to 64 μg/ml were obtained by transposon mutant library screening.

Lighthouses situated on exposed rocky outcrops warn mariners of the dangers that lurk beneath the waves. They were first constructed when approaches to wave loading and structural response were relatively unsophisticated, essentially learning from previous failures. Here, we chart the evolution of lighthouses on the Wolf Rock, situated between Land's End and the Isles of Scilly in the UK.
