Railway bridges with lower beam bottom clearances in windblown sand areas tend to accumulate sand particles on the sides of the beams, which seriously impacts railway safety. To investigate the effect of beam clearance height on wind-sand movement near the surface, and to determine the minimum clearance height for railway bridges in such areas, computational fluid dynamics using the Euler-Euler two-phase flow model was employed to simulate the wind-sand flow field beneath bridges with different heights. The results indicated that as clearance height increased, both the high-speed area above the bridge and acceleration area under the bridge increased, while the turbulence area on the leeward side remained unchanged.

Environmental risk assessment of chemicals (ERA) relies on single-species laboratory testing to establish the toxic properties of a compound. However, ERA is not concerned with toxicity under laboratory conditions: it needs to assess the impacts of the compound in the real world. Data-driven statistical analyses (e.

Adolescent idiopathic scoliosis (AIS), which typically occurs in patients between the ages of 10 and 18, can be caused by a variety of reasons, and no definitive cause has been found. Early diagnosis of AIS or timely recognition of progression is crucial for the prevention of spinal deformity and the reduction of the risk of surgery or postponement. However, it remains a significant challenge.

Background: Research about anxiety, depression and psychosis and their treatments is often reported using inconsistent language, and different aspects of the overall research may be conducted in separate silos. This leads to challenges in evidence synthesis and slows down the development of more effective interventions to prevent and treat these conditions. To address these challenges, the Global Alliance for Living Evidence on aNxiety, depressiOn and pSychosis (GALENOS) Project is conducting a series of living systematic reviews about anxiety, depression and psychosis.

Background: Adolescents and young adults (AYA) with cancer experience long-term consequences into survivorship that impact quality of life, including mental health symptoms, substance use, and persistent pain. Given the elevated rates of pain, AYA cancer survivors are at increased risk for opioid pain medication (OPM) exposure, increasing risk for opioid-related negative consequences, particularly for those with mental health symptoms. Minimal research has documented that a considerable proportion of AYAs with cancer receive OPM that continues into survivorship, yet the lack of consensus on the definition of problematic opioid use coupled with the high clinical need for OPM makes it particularly challenging to understand the impact of OPM use in this population.
