In assisted reproduction, knowledge of the presence of transmissible disease assists diagnosis and permits appropriate risk minimisation. The overall incidence was lowest in the Brisbane full-cost clinic and highest in the Springwood low-cost clinic. Male partners predominated over females, particularly in the low-cost clinic. Hepatitis C was the most commonly detected infection with the highest incidence in the low-cost clinic. HIV was the least commonly detected infection amongst those tested.

Objective: Guatemala has one of the highest rates of maternal mortality in Central America. A total of 60% of births in Guatemala are attended by traditional Mayan birth attendants, or comadronas. Their prevalence in these communities makes them a valuable resource to bridge home births with safe prenatal care.

The imaging of the live cochlea is a challenging task. Regardless of the quality of images obtained from modern clinical imaging techniques, the internal structures of the cochlea mainly remain obscured. Electrical impedance tomography (EIT) is a safe, low-cost alternative medical imaging technique with applications in various clinical scenarios.

This study describes the process of developing a high-impact, low-cost, and low-maintenance air ventilation system for anatomy facilities. It employed the strategic application of Value Engineering (VE), assuring that the air ventilation system meets contemporary threshold limit values (TLVs) for formaldehyde in the working zone of dissection tables. A creative-innovative construction methodology was used, combining the Theory of Inventive Problem Solving (TRIZ/TIPS) and VE for an anatomy laboratory air ventilation concept.

Atrial fibrillation (AF) is recognized as a developing global epidemic responsible for a significant burden of morbidity and mortality. To counter this public health crisis, the advancement of artificial intelligence (AI)-aided tools and methodologies for the effective detection and monitoring of AF is becoming increasingly apparent. A unified strategy from the international research community is essential to develop effective intelligent tools and technologies to support the health professionals for effective surveillance and defense against AF.
