Community health workers: efficacy, taxonomy, and performance by Ballard, M

“…</p> <p><b>Results:</b> Objective one: a systematic review of 155 papers reporting 86 trials found high quality evidence that CHW delivered interventions reduce perinatal mortality, improve child nutritional status, and improve tuberculosis completion rates versus facility-based care. There is also moderate quality evidence that CHW delivered interventions improve certain mental, infectious disease, paediatric, and maternal health outcomes. …”

Reverse translational approaches to population neuroimaging: using rodent models to interpret genetic associations with MRI by Tisca, C

“…We implemented new multi-modal <em>ex-vivo</em> MRI protocols and post-processing pipelines, working in a new Bruker 7T scanning facility. We subsequently optimised immunohistochemistry processing and staining protocols to yield high-quality, multi-stain histology data. …”

Investigation of soil-structure interaction for deep excavations by Hensman, P

“…The field monitoring scheme involved instrumenting a 12 m deep excavation in soft clays and peats for a deep underground waste storage bunker for the PROTOS Energy-from-Waste Facility in Chester, UK. The deep excavation was supported by a complex ’combi-wall’ cofferdam, a reinforced concrete (RC) capping beam, and two levels of internal bracing, and its performance was assessed through measured wall deflections, bracing member loads, and site and bunker water levels. …”

Cognitive Effects of Simulated Galactic Cosmic Radiation Are Mediated by ApoE Status, Sex, and Environment in APP Knock-In Mice by Wieg, Laura, Ciola, Jason C., Wasén, Caroline C., Gaba, Fidelia, Colletti, Brianna R., Schroeder, Maren K., Hinshaw, Robert G., Ekwudo, Millicent N., Holtzman, David M., Saito, Takashi, Sasaguri, Hiroki, Saido, Takaomi C., Cox, Laura M., Lemere, Cynthia A.

“…As travel to a specialized facility was required for irradiation, both traveled sham-irradiated C57BL/6J WT and KI mice and non-traveled (NT) KI mice acted as controls for potential effects of travel. …”

Explorations of combined nonsolvent and thermally induced phase separation (N-TIPS) method for fabricating novel PVDF hollow fiber membranes using mixed diluents by Zhao, Jie, Chong, Jeng Yi, Shi, Lei, Wang, Rong

“…However, previous approaches have been subjected to either the formation of macrovoids or dense layer due to the dominant NIPS effect, or required sophisticated instruments and operation skills. In this work, a facile attempt was carried out to fabricate novel polyvinylidene fluoride (PVDF) hollow fiber membranes with tunable surface pore structure while maintaining the narrow pore size distribution and mechanical strength. …”
