This paper proposes a model to analyse the 'needs' of any given CAMHS tier 2/3 service catchment area and establish the service capacity/workforce required to deliver 'evidence based practice' that is in keeping with good clinical governance. The key point is that in order to provide 'evidence based' practice and keep within good guidance, we need 'Evidence Based Service Development'. This includes appropriate corporate governance linked to evidence based data to ensure effective commissioning of services based on the evidence of 'what works for whom'.

TracMyAir smartphone application for modeling exposures to PM and ozone - Integration with air quality networks and location-activity sensors.

Epidemiologic studies of ambient fine particulate matter (PM) and ozone (O) often use outdoor concentrations from central-site monitors or air quality model estimates as exposure surrogates, which can result in exposure errors. We previously developed an exposure model called TracMyAir, which is an iPhone application that determines seven tiers of individual-level exposure metrics for ambient PM and O using outdoor concentrations, home building characteristics, weather, time-activities. The exposure metrics with increasing information needs and complexity include: outdoor concentration (C, Tier 1), building infiltration factor (F, Tier 2), indoor concentration (C, Tier 3), time spent in microenvironments (ME) (T, Tier 4), personal exposure factor (F, Tier 5), exposure (E, Tier 6), and inhaled dose (D, Tier 7).

To investigate the current situation and demand for specialized development of allergy nursing in 88 hospitals in Guangdong Province, as well as to provide evidence for the management of allergy nursing. From August to December 2023, a cross-sectional study was conducted to analyze the core managers of allergy nursing-related work in eighty-eight hospitals in Guangdong Province supported by the Allergy Nursing Branch of the Guangdong Nurses Association and the Nursing Group of the Allergy Branch of the Guangdong Medical Association. An online survey was conducted using the Delphi method to compile a questionnaire on the current status and demand for specialized development of allergy nursing in Guangdong Province.

Introduction: We studied the relationship between heart transplant centers with and without liver transplant programs regarding volume, waitlist duration, waitlist survival, and 1-y posttransplant survival.
Methods: Scientific Registry of Transplant Recipients data were acquired in July 2023 and represented transplant centers with adult organ transplant volumes in the United States over the past year. This system involved a five-tier ranking system from one to five, where tier one programs had the lowest rating and tier five programs had the highest rating.
Phenotypic characterization and quality of life of Labradoodles with idiopathic epilepsy and epilepsy of unknown cause.

Article Synopsis
- Idiopathic epilepsy (IE) is a chronic neurological disorder affecting Labradoodles, with a specific focus on characterization including age of onset, seizure frequency, and impact on quality of life for both dog and owner.
- An online survey involving Labradoodle owners revealed that 33 out of 40 dogs either had IE or were suspected of having it, with an average age of onset at 2.3 years and an average seizure frequency of 5.4 seizures per year; stress was the most common trigger for seizures.
- Despite some dogs experiencing severe forms of epilepsy, such as cluster seizures and status epilepticus, a majority managed well with minimal treatment, reflecting high quality of life scores for both the dogs
Exploring exhaled breath volatile organic compounds in occupational asthma: A pilot cross-sectional study.

Article Synopsis
- - Occupational asthma (OA) is categorized into allergic asthma and irritant-induced asthma, with the latter having three phenotypic subtypes.
- - This study examined exhaled volatile organic compounds (VOCs) from individuals with OA and healthy healthcare workers to identify potential biomarkers that differentiate OA from healthy controls and its subtypes.
- - 536 VOCs were found, with specific compounds like 1-hexadecanol and xylene showing significant levels and potential links to metabolic changes related to asthma, suggesting these VOCs could improve asthma diagnosis and indicate occupational exposure.
