We investigated a multi-family cluster of 22 cases in Jixi, where pre-symptomatic and asymptomatic transmission resulted in at least 41% of household infections of SARS-CoV-2. Our study illustrates the challenge of controlling COVID-19 due to the presence of asymptomatic and pre-symptomatic transmission even when extensive testing and contact tracing are conducted.An 84-year-old woman, who was diagnosed with rheumatoid arthritis (RA) and was treated with methotrexate and, subsequently, etanercept (ETN) for 6 years, presented with rapidly progressing painful cutaneous mass on the right medial malleolus. The patient was eventually diagnosed with primary cutaneous diffuse large B-cell lymphoma, leg type (PCLBCL-LT). ETN therapy was promptly discontinued expecting spontaneous regression of the lymphoma, which was thought to have developed as other iatrogenic immunodeficiency-associated lymphoproliferative disorders. However, no tumour regression was noted. Chemoimmunotherapy was subsequently initiated, which resulted in partial remission. PCLBCL-LT rarely occurs in patients with RA. Here, we report the first case of PCLBCL-LT that developed in a patient with RA receiving ETN therapy.

Family and friends are key providers of care for people living with a long-term neurological condition. Neurological conditions are a significant global contributor to disability and premature death. this website However, previous research suggests carers often struggle to access appropriate support at end of life.

This review sought to synthesise qualitative studies discussing end-of-life and palliative issues for informal carers supporting people living with neurological conditions.

This was a meta-ethnographic synthesis of 38 qualitative studies discussing end-of-life and palliative issues for informal carers supporting people living with long-term neurological conditions.

Qualitative articles published after January 2010 in English, addressing carers of people with long-term neurological conditions with regard to palliative care, end of life and/or bereavement. Papers were excluded if it was not possible to separately assess the views of carers. Quality appraisal was not undertaken, but consideration was given to research context.

Across the papers, five key themes were identified the future (un)certainties in the progression of life-limiting neurological conditions; an information paradox of not receiving the right information at the right time; access to support; carers' roles in decision making around end of life; and maintaining continuity while facing change and disruption in day-to-day living.

Given the broad agreement on the challenges faced by carers of people living with long-term neurological conditions, future research should consider opportunities to improve information and support for this group, and the development and evaluation of practical models of service delivery.

This study investigates the relationship between family caregivers' cross-checking of information with healthcare providers and patient health outcomes. Specifically, we examined whether this relationship was mediated by caregivers' enhanced coping efficacy. We also tested the moderation effect of family caregivers' affiliate stigma on information cross-checking, coping efficacy, and coping outcomes. Using a survey of 226 family caregivers of dementia patients in South Korea, this study tested the moderated mediation model with the PROCESS macro. Results indicate that low affiliate stigma moderates coping efficacy on the relationship between information cross-checking and dementia patients' health outcomes. Further implications for family caregiving and general dementia care are discussed.Hydrogen production through the processes of ethanol catalytic steam reforming (SR) is one of the promising routes due to its extensive yield that can be gained. However, catalyst deactivation (as a result of coke formation) is a major drawback in such a process. Therefore, this research work introduces efficient MgO supported Cubic cobalt oxide catalyst for the process of ethanol SR. This catalyst was successfully able to produce gases that have high contents of CO-free hydrogen was produced (above 78%) at 500°C and various flow rates of feed. This catalyst had also avoided coke formation at that temperature while attaining capture of the in-situ produced CO2 gas. The employment of an operating temperature beyond 500°C, during the SR process, could reduce the percentages of hydrogen (in products) to less than 55%. Such increases in the operational temperature could leave behind the detection of coke deposits onto the catalyst surface. The presence of these deposits was confirmed visually as well as via Raman spectroscopy.This study investigated the association between prolonged grief (PG) severity and meaning-making narration in a cross-cultural context, and specifically aimed to illustrate the role of value orientation in shaping the grieving process. 30 Chinese and 22 Swiss parents who lost their child were asked to narrate and appraise specific memories to reflect their self-evaluation of traditional and modern values. The self-reported Prolonged Grief Disorder Scale (ref ICD-11) assessed PG severity. Compared with the Swiss sample, the Chinese sample provided more elaborated memories, which was not associated with symptom severity. Both Chinese and Swiss bereaved parents with more severe PG provided more narratives of loss-related memories, particularly in response to modern values. They also provided more appraisals of negative meanings for self-defining memories, particularly in relation to their traditional values. These findings indicate that, despite cultural differences in narration tendency, PG severity in bereaved parents was associated with the maladaptive integration of autobiographical memories across different cultures, in relation to value orientations.
