Navigating the referral boundaries for organ and tissue donation: An interpretive description study.
Aust Crit Care

School of Nursing, College of Health and Medicine, University of Tasmania, Private Bag 132, Hobart, Tasmania 7001, Australia.
Background: The gap between organ availability and the number of people waiting for a transplant remains a major healthcare issue. Most transplanted organs and tissue are received from donors who have died in intensive care units (ICUs). To increase the number of donors, national guidelines and professional bodies in Australia support routine consideration of organ and tissue donation at the end of life.

Background: Cerebral autoregulation is a robust regulatory mechanism that stabilizes cerebral blood flow in response to reduced blood pressure, thereby preventing cerebral ischaemia. Scientists have long believed that cerebral autoregulation also stabilizes cerebral blood flow against increases in intracranial pressure, which is another component that determines cerebral perfusion pressure. However, this idea was inconsistent with the complex pathogenesis of normal pressure hydrocephalus, which includes components of chronic cerebral ischaemia due to mild increases in intracranial pressure.

Netherlands Institute for Health Services Research, Utrecht, Netherlands. Electronic address:
Background: The majority of respiratory syncytial virus (RSV) infections in young children are managed in primary care, however, the disease burden in this setting remains poorly defined.
Methods: We did a prospective cohort study in primary care settings in Belgium, Italy, Spain, the Netherlands, and the UK during the RSV seasons of 2020-21 (UK only; from Jan 1, 2021), 2021-22, and 2022-23. Children aged younger than 5 years presenting to their general practitioner or primary care paediatrician with symptoms of an acute respiratory tract infection were eligible for RSV testing.
A Digital Phenotypic Assessment in Neuro-Oncology (DANO): A Pilot Study on Sociability Changes in Patients Undergoing Treatment for Brain Malignancies.
Cancers (Basel)
January 2025
Computational Neuroscience Outcomes Center, Department of Neurosurgery, Brigham and Women's Hospital, and Harvard Medical School, Boston, MA 02115, USA.
Background: The digital phenotyping tool has great potential for the deep characterization of neurological and quality-of-life assessments in brain tumor patients. Phone communication activities (details on call and text use) can provide insight into the patients' sociability.
Methods: We prospectively collected digital-phenotyping data from six brain tumor patients.
Reducing Plate Waste in Latvian Schools: Evaluating Interventions to Promote Sustainable Food Consumption Practices.
Foods
January 2025
Research Institute for Business and Social Processes, Faculty of Economics and Management, Rezekne Academy of Technologies, LV-4601 Rezekne, Latvia.
Food waste (FW) threatens food security, environmental sustainability, and economic efficiency, with about one-third of global food production lost or wasted. Schools play a crucial role in addressing FW, representing lost resources and missed educational opportunities. The present research assessed three interventions to reduce plate waste (PW) in Rezekne City schools, namely (S1) a plate waste tracker, (S2) an awareness and educational campaign, and (S3) organizational changes, including larger plates, extended lunch breaks, and teacher supervision.
