Background: Cardiovascular diseases (CVD) affect around 7.6 million people in the UK, disproportionately affecting the minority ethnic community. In 2009, the UK's National Health Service (NHS) launched a Health Check (NHSHC) scheme to improve early diagnosis of various clinical conditions, including CVD, by screening patients for associated risk factors.

A step change is required in citizen awareness of the global antimicrobial resistance (AMR) health crisis. But we must move beyond awareness-raising to action, directly engaging and involving patients and public in scoping, testing and scaling solutions to ensure their adoption and impact.

Introduction: The UK national pediatric diabetes audit reports higher HbA1c for children and young people (CYP) with type 1 diabetes (T1D) of Black ethnicity compared with White counterparts. This is presumably related to higher mean blood glucose (MBG) due to lower socioeconomic status (SES) and less access to technology. We aimed to determine if HbA1c ethnic disparity persists after accounting for the above variables.

Despite their high clinical relevance, obtaining structural and biophysical data on transmembrane proteins has been hindered by challenges involved in their expression and extraction in a homogeneous, functionally-active form. The inherent enzymatic activity of receptor tyrosine kinases (RTKs) presents additional challenges. Oncogenic fusions of RTKs with heterologous partners represent a particularly difficult-to-express protein subtype due to their high flexibility, aggregation propensity and the lack of a known method for extraction within the native lipid environment.

Background And Objective: Antimicrobial resistance (AMR) is a global crisis, however, relatively little is known regarding its impact in chronic respiratory disease and the specific challenges faced by healthcare workers across the world in this field. We aimed to assess global healthcare worker views on the challenges they face regarding AMR in chronic respiratory disease.
Methods: An online survey was sent to healthcare workers globally working in chronic respiratory disease through a European Respiratory Society clinical research collaboration (AMR-Lung) focussed on AMR in chronic lung disease.
