Real-world treatment persistence of four commonly prescribed biologic therapies for moderate to severe psoriasis in Australia
CONCLUSIONS: The nationally representative PBS dataset can provide real-world insights into the persistence on biologic therapies for psoriasis in Australia, where eligibility criteria for reimbursed treatment are stringent. Persistence is an indirect marker of sustained treatment effectiveness and tolerability. Both unadjusted and adjusted analyses found longer persistence for guselkumab compared to adalimumab, secukinumab or ustekinumab.PMID:37705180 | DOI:10.1111/ajd.14153

Stepped collaborative care for pain and posttraumatic stress disorder after major trauma: a randomized controlled feasibility trial
CONCLUSIONS: Stepped collaborative care was low-cost, feasible, and acceptable to people at risk of PTSD or pain after major trauma.IMPLICATIONS FOR REHABILITATIONAfter hospitalization for injury, people can experience difficulty accessing timely support to manage posttraumatic stress, pain and other concerns.Stepped case management-based interventions that provide individualized support and collaborative care have reduced posttraumatic stress symptom severity for patients admitted to American trauma centers.We showed that this model of care could be adapted to target pain and mental health in the trauma system in Victoria...

Musculoskeletal injury in an Australian professional ballet company, 2018-2021: 953 medical-attention and 706 time-loss injuries over 4 years
CONCLUSIONS: Almost all dancers required medical-attention for at least one injury during the surveillance period. Approximately 74% of injuries resulted in time-loss. BSI and ankle synovitis/impingement were of high burden and a high proportion of BSI were recurrent.PMID:37707788 | DOI:10.2519/jospt.2023.11858

'It feels meaningful': How informal mental health caregivers in an LGBTQ community interpret their work and their role
Cult Health Sex. 2023 Sep 14:1-16. doi: 10.1080/13691058.2023.2256833. Online ahead of print.ABSTRACTMany members of lesbian, gay, bisexual, trans and gender diverse, and queer (LGBTQ) communities provide informal mental health support to peers. This type of support is valuable for people who receive it - even helping to prevent suicide. It is also meaningful to those who provide it. In this article, we focus on how LGBTQ people derive meaning from their experiences of supporting peers. In-depth interviews with 25 LGBTQ people in Melbourne, Australia, indicate that those providing informal mental health support to fellow c...

The re-emergence of influenza following the COVID-19 pandemic in Victoria, Australia, 2021 to 2022
ConclusionEnhanced testing for respiratory viruses during the COVID-19 pandemic provided a more complete picture of influenza virus transmission compared with previous seasons. Returned international travellers were important drivers of influenza reemergence, as were young adults, a group whose role has previously been under-recognised in the establishment of seasonal influenza epidemics. Targeting interventions, including vaccination, to these groups could reduce future influenza transmission.PMID:37707981 | DOI:10.2807/1560-7917.ES.2023.28.37.2300118

Costs and benefits of community water fluoridation in remote Aboriginal communities of the Northern Territory
CONCLUSIONS: The economic benefits of expanding CWF in remote Aboriginal communities of NT outweigh the costs of installation, operation and maintenance of fluoridation plants over the lifespan of CWF infrastructure for population of 300 or more.PMID:37706591 | DOI:10.1111/ajr.13037

Salting-out assisted liquid-liquid extraction combined with LC-MS/MS for the simultaneous determination of seven organic UV filters in environmental water samples: method development and application
Environ Sci Pollut Res Int. 2023 Sep 15. doi: 10.1007/s11356-023-29646-8. Online ahead of print.ABSTRACTOrganic UV filters (OUVFs), the active ingredient in sunscreens, are of environmental concern due to reported ecotoxicological effects in aquatic biota. Determining the environmental concentrations of these chemicals is essential for understanding their fate and potential environmental risk. Salting-out assisted liquid-liquid extraction (SALLE) coupled with liquid-chromatography tandem mass spectrometry (LC-MS/MS) was developed for simultaneous extraction, separation, and quantification of seven OUVFs (2,4-dihydroxybenzo...

Yield model and yield table construction in Albizia (Albizia lebbeck (L.) under the western agro-climatic zone of Tamil Nadu, Southern India
Environ Sci Pollut Res Int. 2023 Sep 14. doi: 10.1007/s11356-023-29716-x. Online ahead of print.ABSTRACTThe woody legume, Albizia lebbeck, is native to tropical Asia, Africa, and Northern Australia. Owing to its multi-utility, it is widely planted as block plantation and in boundary across community lands. A field study was conducted by measuring the biometric value of trees, viz., height and diameter at every 2-m height using a tree telescope. Besides biometric attributes, age was assessed in order to correlate the age-wise yield. The study was carried out in the western agro-climatic zone of Tamil Nadu in different age c...
