    Abstract The monitoring and assessment of animals is important for their health and welfare. The appropriate selection of multiple, validated, and feasible welfare assessment indicators is required to effectively identify compromises or improvements to animal welfare. Animal welfare indicators can be animal or resource based. Indicators can be collated to form assessment tools (e.g., grimace scales) or animal welfare assessment models (e.g., 5 Domains) and frameworks (e.g., 5 Freedoms). The literature contains a wide variety of indicators, with both types needed for effective animal welfare assessment; however, there is yet to be an ideal constellation of indicators for animal-based welfare assessment in small mammals such as guinea pigs (

    Abstract The monitoring and assessment of animals is important for their health and welfare. The appropriate selection of multiple, validated, and feasible welfare assessment indicators is required to effectively identify compromises or improvements to animal welfare. Animal welfare indicators can be animal or resource based. Indicators can be collated to form assessment tools (e.g., grimace scales) or animal welfare assessment models (e.g., 5 Domains) and frameworks (e.g., 5 Freedoms). The literature contains a wide variety of indicators, with both types needed for effective animal welfare assessment; however, there is yet to be an ideal constellation of indicators for animal-based welfare assessment in small mammals such as guinea pigs ( Cavia Porcellus ), mice ( Mus musculus ), rabbits ( Oryctolagus cuniculus ), and rats ( Rattus norvegicus ). A systematic review of grey and peer-reviewed literature was performed to determine the types of animal-based welfare indicators available to identify and assess animal health and welfare in these small mammals maintained across a wide variety of conditions. The available indicators were categorised and scored against a selection of criteria, including potential ease of use and costs. This review and analysis aim to provide the basis for further research into animal welfare indicators for these species. Future applications of this work may include improvements to animal welfare assessments or schemes, guiding better management, and implementing future strategies to enable better animal welfare.

    Abstract Context: A rare, large single centre study covering all long-term health outcomes of paediatric allogeneic HSCT survivors, to provide comprehensive local data, and identify gaps and future directions for improved care.
    Objective: To document endocrine sequelae and other late effects of all HSCT recipients.
    Design: Retrospective review.
    Setting: Royal Children's Hospital Melbourne.
    Patients: 384 children and adolescents received HSCT. 228 formed the study cohort; 212 were alive at commencement of data accrual.
    Intervention: None.
    Main outcome measures: Incidence of endocrinopathies; fertility, growth, bone and metabolic status; subsequent malignant neoplasms (SMNs).
    Results: Gonadotoxicity was more common in females (p<0.001). Total body irradiation (TBI) conditioning was more toxic than chemotherapy alone. All females receiving TBI or higher cyclophosphamide equivalent doses (CED) developed premature ovarian insufficiency (POI) . In males, impaired spermatogenesis +/- testicular endocrine dysfunction was associated with increasing testicular radiation exposure. Preservation of gonadal function was associated with younger age at HSCT. Of sexually active females, 22% reported spontaneous pregnancies. Short stature was common, with growth hormone axis disruption in 30% of these. Of patients exposed to thyroid radiation 51% developed nodules, 30% malignant. Metabolic disturbances included hypertension, dyslipidemias, with both excess and underweight reported. Fragility fractures occurred in 6%; avascular necrosis in 6%. 13% developed SMNs, risk continuing to rise throughout follow-up.
    Conclusions: We confirm gonadal dysfunction, multiple endocrine and metabolic abnormalities, thyroid cancer and SMNs, as common sequelae of HSCT, and identify gaps in management - particularly the need for informed fertility counselling and pretreatment fertility preservation, evaluation and management of bone health, and underline need for early lifestyle modification, long-term surveillance, and prospective planned studies aimed at reducing complication risk.

    Abstract Introduction: Gender equity in medicine has become a significant topic of discussion due to consistently low female representation in academia and leadership roles. Gender imbalance directly affects patient care. This study examined the gender and craft group of the Principal Investigators (PI) of clinical trials run by the Australasian Gastro-Intestinal Trials Group (AGITG).
    Methods: Publicly available data was obtained from the AGITG website. Trials were divided into upper, lower gastrointestinal cancer, miscellaneous (neuroendocrine and gastrointestinal stromal tumours). Where multiple PIs were listed, all were counted. Craft group was assigned as surgical, medical, radiation oncology or other.
    Results: There were 69 trials with 89 PI, where 52 trials were represented exclusively by male PIs. Of all PIs, 18 were women (20.2%); all were medical oncologists. Prior to 2005, all PIs were male. The craft group distribution of PIs was: 79% medical oncologists, 12% surgical oncologists, 8% radiation oncologist, 1% nuclear medicine physicians. Regarding trials with multiple PI's, there were 19 in total. Of these, 11 had only male PIs, which included 5 surgeons. Females were more likely to be a co-PI (42%) as opposed to sole PI (18%). There was no gender policy publicly available on the AGITG website.
    Conclusions: There is a low percentage of female PIs in academic oncology trials in the portfolio of this large international trials group. No trial was led by a female surgical or radiation oncologist. There is a need to understand the reasons driving the disparity so that specific strategies can be put in place.

    Abstract Objective: This review aims to synthesize the experiences of informal caregivers of people with dementia in low- and middle-income countries (LMICs).
    Introduction: Globally, the burden of dementia is increasing disproportionately in LMICs. Informal caregivers play a vital role and face multiple challenges in LMICs. Caregivers often lack awareness and skills to provide adequate care for people living with dementia. Many LMICs have limited resources and caregivers lack support services. Understanding their experiences and perceptions may improve interventions, helping caregivers to better support those living with dementia.
    Inclusion criteria: Studies from all settings in LMICs will be considered. Qualitative data from qualitative or mixed methods studies that explore caregivers' experiences and perceptions will be included in this review. Participants are informal caregivers of people diagnosed with dementia at any stage, regardless of age, gender, or their relationship with people living with dementia.
    Methods: This review will follow the JBI methodology for a qualitative systematic reviews, with meta-aggregation as the synthesis method. The review will be reported in accordance with the Preferred Reporting Items for Systematic Reviews and Meta-Analyses (PRISMA) guidelines. A 3-step search strategy will be used to locate published and unpublished studies in MEDLINE, CINAHL, Embase, PsycINFO, AgeLine, LILACS, African Index Medicus, ProQuest Dissertations and Theses, Open Dissertations, Web of Science Core Collection, and Google Scholar. There will be no date or language limitations. All studies will be screened against the inclusion criteria and data will be extracted and critically appraised for methodological quality by 2 independent reviewers using JBI tools. Confidence in the final synthesized findings will be assessed using the ConQual approach.
