Current postvention research and priorities for the future: Results of a survey.
Conclusion: The survey generated three strategies for future postvention research: increase intercultural collaboration, increase theory-driven research, and build bonds between research and practice. Future surveys should include experiences with obtaining research grants and ethical approval for postvention studies. (PsycINFO Database Record (c) 2017 APA, all rights reserved)

Bronchiectasis and asthma: a dangerous liaison?
Purpose of review To explore the latest insight of the literature on the asthma/bronchiectasis phenotype providing an updated overview about epidemiological, clinical and biological evidence linking these two conditions. Recent findings An increasing body of literature has shown that the association of asthma and bronchiectasis is a frequent phenomenon leading to a more severe disease with frequent exacerbations. The mechanisms by which the two diseases are linked are still not well established but they share several clinical and immunological features and many comorbidities. Summary The early identification of bro...

Systemic and breath biomarkers for asthma: an update
Purpose of review Finding suitable biomarkers to phenotype asthma, identify individuals at risk of worsening and guide treatment is highly prioritized in asthma research. We aimed to provide an analysis of currently used and upcoming biomarkers, focusing on developments published in the past 2 years. Recent findings Type 2 inflammation is the most studied asthma mechanism with the most biomarkers in the pipeline. Blood eosinophils and fractional exhaled nitric oxide (FeNO) are those most used clinically. Recent developments include their ability to identify individuals at higher risk of exacerbations, faster decline i...

“I get hungry all the time”: experiences of poverty and pregnancy in an urban healthcare setting in South Africa
Conclusions: Though pregnancy is a normal life occurrence, it has the potential to further marginalise women and children living in already vulnerable households. Extending the Child Support Grant to include the period of pregnancy would not only serve to acknowledge and address the particular challenges faced by poor women, but also go some way to securing the health of newborn children and future generations.

Symbolism and ritual practices related to hunting in Maya communities from central Quintana Roo, Mexico
Conclusions: By performing the Loojil Ts’oon, the act of killing an animal is legitimized. The kill transforms into an exchange to perpetuate life, in which gods and Lords of animals grant the hunter the solicited new game if he has completed his ritual duties and has not broken the prescribed hunting rules. The Loojil Ts’oon does not only represent the continuity and regeneration of animals, that is, fauna as a resource, but also of the whole hunting cycle. The hunter does so to maintain and recreate order and equilibrium in one’s relationship with nature as a whole, with the rest of one’s social group, and with o...

Physical or psychological child abuse and neglect: Experiences, reporting behavior and positions toward mandatory reporting of pediatricians in Berlin, Germany.
CONCLUSIONS: More training on diagnosing CAN should be offered to pediatricians. It is necessary to have a full and frank discussion about making reporting mandatory in cases where there is a reasonable suspicion of CAN. Doctors believe that mandatory reporting standardizes and simplifies working procedures. It may possibly reduce the number of undetected cases of CAN and would allow more children and families access to early protection and supporting measures.

Prenatal alcohol exposure and mental health at midlife: A  preliminary report on two longitudinal cohorts
CONCLUSIONS: PAE is associated with greater rates of mental health disorders in middle adulthood. These outcomes appear to result from multiple stressors that affect individuals made vulnerable by their early alcohol exposure. Clinical outcomes could be improved by prevention efforts directed at preventing prenatal alcohol use and reducing environmental stressors later in life, and by the early identification of PAE and its effects.PMID:35157325 | DOI:10.1111/acer.14761

Supersonic Shear Imaging and Transient Elastography with the XL Probe Accurately Detect Fibrosis in Overweight or Obese Patients with Chronic Liver Disease
& Aims: Assessment of the severity of liver fibrosis is an important step in evaluating patients with chronic liver disease and determining their prognosis. We compared liver stiffness measurements (LSMs) made by Supersonic Shear Imaging (SSI) with those of transient elastography (TE)-XL for their ability to determine the degree of liver fibrosis in overweight or obese patients with chronic liver disease.
