In 2008, France implemented a regulation framework for rainwater harvesting (RWH). This framework implicitly defines several categories of rainwater quality for different uses through specific technical requirements to be implemented. This paper presents a detailed analysis of these requirements. Then, results concerning the bacteriological and physicochemical water quality from past on-site studies undertaken in France are compared in order to develop a methodological strategy aiming to validate, clarify or invalidate them through future experiments.

Background: Chronic Transforming Growth Factor Beta 1 (TGF-β1) plays a critical role in tissue remodelling and immunological modulation, which may contribute to the severity and recurrence of Chronic Rhinosinusitis with Nasal Polyps (CRSwNP). Despite extensive research on CRSwNP, the exact role and pathological significance of TGF-β1 in CRSwNP remain poorly understood due to inconsistencies in study methodologies and findings.
Aims/objectives: To resolve discrepancies in the literature, this systematic review compares the levels of TGF-β1 in CRSwNP tissue to controls and Chronic Rhinosinusitis without Nasal Polyps (CRSsNP).

Background: Delirium frequently occurs in palliative care settings, yet its screening, identification, and management remain suboptimal in clinical practice. This review aims to elucidate the barriers preventing healthcare professionals from effectively screening, recognizing, and managing delirium in adult patients receiving specialist palliative care, with the goal of developing strategies to enhance clinical practice.
Methods: A mixed-methods systematic review was conducted (PROSPERO: CRD42024563666).

The aim was to map evidence on the quality of records in the Mortality Information System (SIM) through a national scoping review of articles published up to April 2023 across five databases (PubMed, Embase, Scopus, LILACS, and SciELO). Studies focused on specific causes of death were excluded. Dimensions evaluated included accessibility, methodological clarity, coverage, completeness, reliability, consistency, non-duplication, timeliness, validity, and studies on ill-defined causes/garbage codes.
