Reducing maternal smoking using Indigenous knowledge, practices, and online technologies.
J Ethn Subst Abuse

Centre of Research Excellence: Indigenous Sovereignty & Smoking, Auckland, New Zealand.
Maternal smoking increases adverse risks for both the mother's pregnancy and the unborn child and remains disproportionately high among some Indigenous peoples. Decreasing smoking among pregnant Indigenous women has been identified as a health priority in New Zealand because of wide inequities in smoking-related harms. Using pre- and post-intervention questionnaires, this feasibility study assessed the acceptability and potential efficacy of a novel cessation program designed for Indigenous women by Indigenous experts utilizing traditional knowledge and practice.

Viruses can interact with a broad range of inorganic and organic particles in water and wastewater. These associations can protect viruses from inactivation by quenching chemical disinfectants or blocking ultraviolet light transmission, and a much higher dosage of disinfectants is required to inactivate particle-associated viruses than free viruses. There have been only few studies of the association of viruses with particles in wastewater, particularly in secondary treated effluent.

Bioelectromagnetics Laboratory, University of Wollongong, Wollongong, Australia.
In this paper, we present the design, RF-EMF performance, and a comprehensive uncertainty analysis of the reverberation chamber (RC) exposure systems that have been developed for the use of researchers at the University of Wollongong Bioelectromagnetics Laboratory, Australia, for the purpose of investigating the biological effects of RF-EMF in rodents. Initial studies, at 1950 MHz, have focused on investigating thermophysiological effects of RF exposure, and replication studies related to RF-EMF exposure and progression of Alzheimer's disease (AD) in mice predisposed to AD. The RC exposure system was chosen as it allows relatively unconstrained movement of animals during exposures which can have the beneficial effect of minimizing stress-related, non-RF-induced biological and behavioral changes in the animals.

College of Public Health, University of South Florida, Tampa, Florida.
Introduction: Birthing people around the world experience mistreatment during labor and birth, contributing to adverse maternal health outcomes. The adoption of respectful maternity care (RMC) has been recommended to address this mistreatment and improve care quality. Most RMC and mistreatment research has been conducted internationally.

Laboratory of Pharmaceutical Epidemiology, Facultad de Farmacia, Universidad Autónoma del Estado de Morelos, Cuernavaca, Morelos, México.
Background: Culturally appropriate educational materials are necessary to improve health literacy among Indigenous populations. However, practically no such materials have been cross-culturally adapted and validated for Indigenous peoples based on compliance with efficacy components.
Objective: To perform a cross-cultural adaptation and validation of audiovisual educational materials for adult patients with rheumatoid arthritis belonging to Indigenous communities in Chiapas, Mexico.
