Dementia Care Practice.
Alzheimers Dement
December 2024
Neuroscience Research Australia, Sydney, NSW, Australia.
People living with dementia have a range of functional, physical, cognitive, and behaviour needs. Reablement (and/or 'rehabilitation') is an important multidisciplinary approach, such as using occupational therapy and exercise, to address each person's needs. People with dementia in Australia are being referred to community aged care teams for everyday living support, and an evidence-informed reablement handbook is freely available (www.

Department of Bioenvironmental Systems Engineering, National Taiwan University, Taipei, Taiwan.
Background: Cancer is a leading cause of death globally, with significant variations in incidence and mortality rates among different cancer types and regions. In Taiwan, breast cancer (BC), cervical cancer (CxCa), colorectal cancer (CRC), and oral cancer (OC) are prevalent and have prompted government-led screening programs to mitigate their impact. This study aims to assess the burden of these cancers at the county scale using disability-adjusted life years (DALYs) as a metric, focusing on the years 2010, 2015, 2018, 2019, and 2020.

George Institute for Global Health, Camperdown, New South Wales, Australia
Background: Since 2014, drowning has received increased political attention. Translating this political commitment to saving lives needs policy-supported evidence-informed interventions. An evidence gap map (EGM) was developed, which aims to facilitate the strategic prioritisation of future research and efficient commissioning of interventions.

Article Synopsis
- Effective global action against antimicrobial resistance (AMR) requires a robust scientific policy interface to translate evidence into practice, an area currently lacking an authoritative entity.
- The proposed Scientific Panel on Evidence for Action against AMR (SPEA) aims to fill this gap by enhancing global coordination, providing real-time evidence, and tracking progress towards AMR goals.
- Drawing lessons from the Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change (IPCC), this essay discusses the potential functions and governance models for SPEA to support equitable, evidence-informed policy-making while addressing inherent challenges.
Establishing the African region monitoring vaccine effectiveness (AFRO-MoVE) network for respiratory pathogens.
Vaccine
December 2024
Membership of the AFRO-MoVE Network is Provided as an Annexe, France.
Population-level vaccination with newly developed vaccines to respond to the COVID-19 pandemic created a need to monitor vaccine effectiveness (VE) in the context of emerging SARS-CoV-2 variants and changing epidemiology. WHO and partners launched the African Region Monitoring Vaccine Effectiveness (AFRO-MoVE) Network in March 2021 to assess the performance of COVID-19 vaccines in real-world conditions in Africa. The Network aimed to facilitate and support comparable COVID-19 vaccine effectiveness studies in the African region, to provide a platform of scientific expertise and infrastructure, encourage the use of robust similar study designs to enable pooling to produce regional VE estimates and to build a sustainable network of hospitals, institutions, and experts to evaluate vaccines against pandemic and endemic respiratory pathogens.
