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

'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...

Scoping review of practice-focused resources to support the implementation of place-based approaches
CONCLUSIONS: Based on findings, we recommend that: (1) the development of resources to support evidence-informed practice and governance be prioritised; (2) resources clearly state their target audience and tailor communication to this audience; (3) resources draw on evidence from a range of sources; (4) resources continue to include practical implementation strategies supported by examples and (5) resource content be adaptable to different contexts (e.g., different settings and/or target populations). SO WHAT?: This is the first review of practice-focused resources to support the implementation of place-based approaches a...

Googling long-acting reversible contraception: A scoping review examining the information available online about intrauterine devices and contraceptive implants
CONCLUSIONS: Most webpages provided medically accurate information to consumers; however, many did not include key information such as cost or how they work. Descriptions of side effects varied between webpages, and this may inhibit informed decision-making. SO WHAT?: Most people make decisions about what contraceptive method they might like to use before visiting a health care provider, and most will get this information from the internet. Providing comprehensive, medically accurate and consistent information about both IUDs and contraceptive implants is vital to support informed decision-making.PMID:37700511 | DOI:10.1002/hpja.806

Antioxidant vitamin and mineral supplements for slowing the progression of age-related macular degeneration
CONCLUSIONS: Moderate-certainty evidence suggests that antioxidant vitamin and mineral supplementation (AREDS: vitamin C, E, beta-carotene, and zinc) probably slows down progression to late AMD. People with intermediate AMD have a higher chance of benefiting from antioxidant supplements because their risk of progression is higher than people with early AMD. Although low-certainty evidence suggested little effect with lutein/zeaxanthin alone compared with placebo, exploratory subgroup analyses from one large American study support the view that lutein/zeaxanthin may be a suitable replacement for the beta-carotene used in th...

Rethinking the distribution of sleep services: discrepancy of obstructive sleep apnoea in rural compared with metropolitan men in Australia - a large national survey
CONCLUSION: This study highlights the need to ensure adequate services in rural areas, given the higher proportion of men diagnosed with, or at risk of, OSA in rural areas. OSA is also associated with an increase risk of comorbidities such as heart disease, hypertension and diabetes, which are diseases also seen more prevalently in rural men. Rethinking the distribution of healthcare services will go some way to addressing this problem.PMID:37700451 | DOI:10.22605/RRH7704

Postgraduate nurse education in Indonesia and Australia: A comparative analysis
CONCLUSIONS: While there are many areas of similarity, postgraduate nurse education is more diverse in Australia, while there are growing opportunities for new developments in Indonesia. This analysis identifies areas for future consideration around postgraduate education development in both countries, along with possibilities for future collaboration. Furthermore, comparative analysis provided a useful foundation on mapping key elements.PMID:37703747 | DOI:10.1016/j.nedt.2023.105954

Generalizability of Self-Supervised Training Models for Digital Pathology: A Multicountry Comparison in Colorectal Cancer
CONCLUSION: We find that using unlabeled image data for SSL pretraining in CRC related tasks is more effective than using ImageNet pretraining. Furthermore, SSL pretraining using data from multiple countries achieve more stable performance and better generalization than single-country pretraining.PMID:37703507 | DOI:10.1200/CCI.22.00178
