The COVID-19 pandemic has generated a range of responses from countries across the globe in managing and containing infections. Considerable research has highlighted the importance of trust in ethically and effectively managing infectious diseases in the population; however, considerations of reciprocal trust remain limited in debates on pandemic response. This paper aims to broaden the perspective of good ethical practices in managing an infectious disease outbreak by including the role of reciprocal trust. A synthesis of the approaches drawn from South Korea and Taiwan reveals reciprocal trust as an important ethical response to the COVID-19 pandemic. Reciprocal trust offers the opportunity to reconcile the difficulties arising from restrictive measures for protecting population health and individual rights.

Background: The effects of end-stage kidney disease (ESKD) can spill over into a patient's social life. Social capital (SC) is a determinant of health that can enhance patients' health through support and resources. However, no questionnaire is currently available to measure SC in ESKD patients.

Introduction: Person-centred care (PCC) improves clinical outcomes for people living with HIV. Heterosexual men in sub-Saharan Africa are under-represented in HIV care, yet PCC interventions for men are lacking. We identified core components of a PCC intervention for men living with HIV (MLHIV) in Malawi from both client and healthcare worker (HCW) perspectives, as well as strategies for implementation in routine settings.

Hydroxysteroid 17β-dehydrogenase 13 (HSD17B13) loss-of-function gene variants are associated with a decreased risk of metabolic dysfunction-associated steatotic liver disease (MASLD). Our RNA-seq analysis of steatotic liver from obese mice ± fenretinide treatment identified major beneficial effects of fenretinide on expression of hepatic genes including Hsd17b13. We sought to determine the relationship between Hsd17b13 expression and MASLD and to validate it as a therapeutic target by liver-specific knockdown.

Background: Social capital, as a multidimensional social science concept, plays a crucial role in promoting physical activity. Despite numerous studies exploring the relationship between social capital and physical activity, there is still a lack of systematic understanding of how different dimensions of social capital influence physical activity levels. This study aims to systematically review the literature up to 2024 on the relationship between social capital and physical activity, uncover the role of social capital in promoting physical activity, and identify its multidimensional impacts.
