Sector-Wide Approach (SWAp) in Healthcare-A Mixed-Methods Assessment of Health SWAps in Nepal and Bangladesh.
Int J Environ Res Public Health
December 2024
Department of Business Administration and Health Care Management, University of Greifswald, 17489 Greifswald, Germany.
Background: The sector-wide approach (SWAp) is an instrument of cooperation between external development partners (EDPs) and the government of a country. Its main purpose is the coordination, alignment and harmonisation of activities between EDPs and between EDPs and the respective government by covering the entire sector with one major programme.
Methods: The main objective of this paper is to analyse the performance of the SWAps in two countries and draw conclusions about the appropriateness of SWAps as financing instruments in the healthcare sector under certain conditions.
Housing Environmental Enrichment, Lifestyles, and Public Health Indicators of Neurogenesis in Humans: A Pilot Study.
Int J Environ Res Public Health
November 2024
Department of Architecture, University of Cambridge, Cambridge CB2 1PX, UK.
Background: In response to the rising mental health concerns and cognitive decline associated with the human brain's neurogenesis, which continues until the tenth decade of life but declines with age and is suppressed by poor environments, this pilot study investigates how physical environments may influence public health proxy measures of neurogenesis in humans. This pilot study focuses on the residential environment where people spend most of their time and age in place, exploring the dependency of depression, anxiety, and cognitive impairment variations on spatial and lifestyle variables.
Methods: A total of 142 healthy adults in England completed a survey consisting of PHQ-8, GAD-7, and CFI questionnaires and other questions developed to capture the variance in spatial and lifestyle factors such as time spent at home, house type layout complexity, spaciousness, physical activity, routine and spatial novelty, and perceived loneliness.
Media Representation of the Ethical Issues Pertaining to Brain-Computer Interface (BCI) Technology.
Brain Sci
December 2024
College of Humanities and Social Sciences, North Carolina State University, Raleigh, NC 27695, USA.
Background/objectives: Brain-computer interfaces (BCIs) are a rapidly developing technology that captures and transmits brain signals to external sources, allowing the user control of devices such as prosthetics. BCI technology offers the potential to restore physical capabilities in the body and change how we interact and communicate with computers and each other. While BCI technology has existed for decades, recent developments have caused the technology to generate a host of ethical issues and discussions in both academic and public circles.

Brain Sci
November 2024
Edmond Safra Brain Research Center, Faculty of Education, University of Haifa, Haifa 3498838, Israel.
Background: In the last decade, empirical studies on the beneficial effects of meditation on prosocial capacities have accumulated, but the underlying mechanisms remain unclear. Buddhist sources state that liberating oneself from a fixed view of the self by gaining access to its transitory and malleable nature leads to increased compassion and other prosocial traits. These, however, have not yet been empirically tested.

Instituto de Biodiversidad y Medioambiente (BIOMA), Universidad de Navarra, 31008 Pamplona, Navarra, Spain.
Zoos and aquariums attract millions of visitors around the world. At the same time, the functions they fulfill and the way they do that have been subject to scrutiny from different fields of knowledge. The way societies perceive animals has evolved in recent decades and so has the social perception of institutions that work with them.
