Clinicians spend large amounts of their workday using electronic medical records (EMRs). Poorly designed documentation systems contribute to the proliferation of out-of-date information, increased time spent on medical records, clinician burnout, and medical errors. Beyond software interfaces, examining the underlying paradigms and organizational structures for clinical information may provide insights into ways to improve documentation systems. In particular, our attachment to the note as the major organizational unit for storing unstructured medical data may be a cause of many of the problems with modern clinical documentation. Notes, as currently understood, systematically incentivize information duplication and information scattering, both within a single clinician's notes over time and across multiple clinicians' notes. Therefore, it is worthwhile to explore alternative paradigms for unstructured data organization.

The aim of this study is to demonstrate the feasibility of building an EMR that does nical data should be reevaluated, and alternative models should be considered.

While the COVID-19 pandemic has left an unprecedented impact globally, countries such as the United States of America have reported the most significant incidence of COVID-19 cases worldwide. Within the US, various sociodemographic factors have played an essential role in the creation of regional disparities. Regional disparities have resulted in the unequal spread of disease between US counties, underscoring the need for efficient and accurate predictive modelling strategies to inform public health officials and reduce the burden on healthcare systems. Furthermore, despite the widespread accessibility of COVID-19 vaccines across the US, vaccination rates have become stagnant, necessitating predictive modelling to identify important factors impacting vaccination uptake.

To determine the association between sociodemographic factors and vaccine uptake across counties in the US.

Sociodemographic data on fully vaccinated and unvaccinated individuals were sourced from several online databases, such as the US Centre for Disease Control and US Census Bureau COVID-19 Site. Machine learning analysis was performed using XGBoost and sociodemographic data.

Our model predicted COVID-19 vaccination uptake across US countries with 62% accuracy. In addition, it identified location, education, ethnicity, income, and household access to the internet as the most critical sociodemographic features in predicting vaccination uptake in US counties. Lastly, the model produced a choropleth demonstrating areas of low and high vaccination rates, which can be used by healthcare authorities in future pandemics to visualize and prioritize areas of low vaccination and design targeted vaccination campaigns.

Our study reveals that sociodemographic characteristics are predictors of vaccine uptake rate across counties in the US and if leveraged appropriately can assist policy makers and public health officials to understand vaccine uptake rates and craft policies to improve them.

Lactoferrin-binding protein B (LbpB) is a lipoprotein present on the surface of Neisseria that has been postulated to serve dual functions during pathogenesis in both iron acquisition from lactoferrin (Lf), and in providing protection against the cationic antimicrobial peptide lactoferricin (Lfcn). While previous studies support a dual role for LbpB, exactly how these ligands interact with LbpB has remained unknown. Here, we present the structures of LbpB from N. meningitidis and N. gonorrhoeae in complex with human holo-Lf, forming a 11 complex and confirmed by size-exclusion chromatography small-angle X-ray scattering. LbpB consists of N- and C-lobes with the N-lobe interacting extensively with the C-lobe of Lf. Our structures provide insight into LbpB's preference towards holo-Lf, and our mutagenesis and binding studies show that Lf and Lfcn bind independently. Our studies provide the molecular details for how LbpB serves to capture and preserve Lf in an iron-bound state for delivery to the membrane transporter LbpA for iron piracy, and as an antimicrobial peptide sink to evade host immune defenses.Although tumor-infiltrating regulatory T (Treg) cells play a pivotal role in tumor immunity, how Treg cell activation are regulated in tumor microenvironments remains unclear. Here, we found that mice deficient in the inhibitory immunoreceptor CD300a on their dendritic cells (DCs) have increased numbers of Treg cells in tumors and greater tumor growth compared with wild-type mice after transplantation of B16 melanoma. Pharmacological impairment of extracellular vesicle (EV) release decreased Treg cell numbers in CD300a-deficient mice. Coculture of DCs with tumor-derived EV (TEV) induced the internalization of CD300a and the incorporation of EVs into endosomes, in which CD300a inhibited TEV-mediated TLR3-TRIF signaling for activation of the IFN-β-Treg cells axis. We also show that higher expression of CD300A was associated with decreased tumor-infiltrating Treg cells and longer survival time in patients with melanoma. Our findings reveal the role of TEV and CD300a on DCs in Treg cell activation in the tumor microenvironment.The European Pharmacopoeia (Ph. Eur.), includes both individual monographs on essential oils and a general monograph that covers all essential oils for pharmaceutical use, whether covered by an individual monograph or not. The individual monographs generally describe gas chromatography as a first identification test, while thin-layer chromatography (TLC) and high-performance thin-layer chromatography (HPTLC) methods are included in the second identification series. To comply with Ph. Eur. general chapter 2.8.25. High-performance thin-layer chromatography of herbal drugs and herbal drug preparations, HPTLC parameters must be standardised. Currently, 18 of the 32 monographs on essential oils feature the same TLC/HPTLC method, but differ in terms of the other conditions described. A single, standardised chromatographic system with a system suitability test (SST) and intensity markers for all 32 essential oils covered by individual monographs would be desirable, particularly for pharmacies and other users that cannot perform gas chromatography for financial reasons. To this end, this paper describes the development of a general HPTLC method for the identification of essential oils in compliance with general chapter 2.8.25. The method proposes the use of ethyl acetate, toluene (595 V/V) as mobile phase, isoeugenol/isoeugenyl acetate for the SST, and a combination of one alcohol (either borneol or linalool) and one ester (either linalyl acetate or bornyl acetate) as intensity markers.A new genus and three new species of blood flukes (Aporocotylidae) are described from squirrelfishes (Holocentridae) from the Great Barrier Reef. Holocentricola rufus n. gen., n. sp. is described from Sargocentron rubrum (Forsskål), from off Heron Island, southern Great Barrier Reef, and Lizard Island, northern Great Barrier Reef, Australia. Holocentricola exilis n. sp. and Holocentricola coronatus n. sp. are described from off Lizard Island, H. exilis from Neoniphon sammara (Forsskål) and H. coronatus from Sargocentron diadema (Lacepède). Species of the new genus are distinct from those of all other aporocotylid genera in having a retort-shaped cirrus-sac with a distinct thickening at a marginal male genital pore. The new genus is further distinct in the combination of a lanceolate body, X-shaped caeca, posterior caeca that are longer than anterior caeca, a single, post-caecal testis that is not deeply lobed, a post-caecal, post-testis ovary that is not distinctly bi-lobed, and a post-ovarian uterus. The three new species can be morphologically delineated based on the size and row structure of the marginal spines, as well by total length, oesophagus and caecal lengths, and the position of the male genital pore, testes and ovary relative to the posterior extremity. The three species of Holocentricola are genetically distinct from each other based on cox1 mtDNA and ITS2 rDNA data, and in phylogenetic analyses of 28S rDNA form a well-supported clade sister to species of Neoparacardicola Yamaguti, 1970. This is the first report of aporocotylids from fishes of the family Holocentridae and the order Holocentriformes.

Around 60,000 babies are born preterm (prior to 37 weeks' gestation) each year in the UK. There is little evidence on the optimal birth mode (vaginal or caesarean section).

The overall aim of the CASSAVA project was to determine if a trial to define the optimal mode of preterm birth could be carried out and, if so, determine what sort of trial could be conducted and how it could best be performed. We aimed to determine the specific groups of preterm women and babies for whom there are uncertainties about the best planned mode of birth, and if there would be willingness to recruit to, and participate in, a randomised trial to address some, but not all, of these uncertainties. This project was conducted in response to a Heath Technology Assessment programme commissioning call (17/22 'Mode of delivery for preterm infants').

The strain was characterized by 16S rRNA and atpA gene sequence analysis and by conventional phenotypic and chemotaxonomic testing. The average nucleotide identity (ANI) and core genome phylogeny were determined using whole-genome sequences. Although strain Marseille-Q3452T showed 99.72 % 16S rRNA gene sequence similarity with Campylobacter showae strain ATCC 51146T, atpA and ANI analyses revealed divergence between the two strains. The two species could also be distinguished phenotypically on the basis of the absence of flagella and nitrate reduction. On the basis of the results from phenotypic, chemotaxonomic, genomic and phylogenetic analyses and data, we concluded that strain Marseille-Q3452T represents a novel species of the genus Campylobacter, for which the name Campylobacter massiliensis sp.
