    Abstract We developed a video and an app for obtaining consent about allowing newborn blood spots (NBS) to be used as biospecimen resources for biobanking. Newborn screening programs test for treatable diseases and leave residual biospecimens that can be used in future research activities. We conducted focus groups and interviews with three diverse communities to determine (a) how well the consent tools worked and (b) participant familiarity with NBS. Participants preferred the video and noted that they were unaware that NBS could be used for future research. Providing information about how biospecimens could be used was a key issue.

    Abstract Introduction: Comprehensive evaluation and intervention provided by occupational therapists is effective in reducing the presence of fall hazards in the homes of older adults. The purpose of this study was to document known environmental hazards and to update a previous content analysis. A secondary goal reviewed a framework for evaluation and practice.
    Methods: A comprehensive scoping review of published academic articles was performed from 1996 to 2019 to answer: What environmental hazards have been associated with falls in the homes of community-dwelling older adults? Data was extracted in a standardised critical appraisal worksheet and content analysis was conducted. A review of a conceptual framework for assessment and intervention was conducted by international experts (n = 6) in face-to-face interviews.
    Results: Fourteen studies met the inclusion criteria for the scoping study. The studies reported 17 in-home environmental hazards: throw rugs/carpets, clutter, cords/wires, poorly placed light switches, items placed too low, items placed too high, no grab bars, toilet seats too low, uneven floor surfaces, slippery/wet surfaces, snowy/icy surfaces, backless/unsupportive shoes, unsteady stairs, inadequate lighting, inadequate heating/cooling, step stools without railings, and pets.
    Conclusion: A comprehensive list of specific fall hazards in and around the homes of older adults and a guiding framework offers occupational therapists an evidence-based foundation for fall prevention efforts.

    Abstract In the aftermath of the SARS epidemic, there has been significant progress in understanding the molecular and cell biology of SARS-CoV. Some of the milestones are the availability of viral genome sequence, identification of the viral receptor, development of an infectious cDNA clone, and the identification of viral antigens that elicit neutralizing antibodies. However, there is still a large gap in our understanding of how SARS-CoV interacts with the host cell and the rapidly changing viral genome adds another variable to this equation. Now the SARS-CoV story has entered a new phase, a search for preventive strategies and a cure for the disease. This review highlights the progress made in identifying molecular aspects of SARS-CoV biology that is relevant in developing disease prevention strategies. Authors conclude that development of successful SARS-CoV vaccines and antivirals depends on the progress we make in these areas in the immediate future.

    Abstract The emergence of multidrug-resistant bacteria necessitates the identification of unique targets of intervention and compounds that inhibit their function. Gram-positive bacteria use a well-conserved tRNA-responsive transcriptional regulatory element in mRNAs, known as the T-box, to regulate the transcription of multiple operons that control amino acid metabolism. T-box regulatory elements are found only in the 5'-untranslated region (UTR) of mRNAs of Gram-positive bacteria, not Gram-negative bacteria or the human host. Using the structure of the 5'UTR sequence of the Bacillus subtilis tyrosyl-tRNA synthetase mRNA T-box as a model, in silico docking of 305 000 small compounds initially yielded 700 as potential binders that could inhibit the binding of the tRNA ligand. A single family of compounds inhibited the growth of Gram-positive bacteria, but not Gram-negative bacteria, including drug-resistant clinical isolates at minimum inhibitory concentrations (MIC 16-64 μg mL

    Abstract The whole sensometabolome of a typical dairy milk dessert was decoded to potentially serve as a blueprint for further flavor optimization steps of functional fat-reduced food. By applying the sensomics approach, a wide range of different dairy volatiles, semi and nonvolatiles, were analyzed by ultrahigh-performance liquid chromatography tandem mass spectrometry with or without derivatization presteps. While for volatile sulfur compounds with low odor thresholds, headspace solid-phase microextraction gas chromatography was established, abundant carbohydrates and organic acids were quantified by quantitative

    Abstract Background: In the SVR trial (Single Ventricle Reconstruction), 1-year transplant-free survival was better for the Norwood procedure with right ventricle-to-pulmonary artery shunt (RVPAS) compared with a modified Blalock-Taussig shunt in patients with hypoplastic left heart and related syndromes. At 6 years, we compared transplant-free survival and other outcomes between the groups.
    Methods: Medical history was collected annually using medical record review, telephone interviews, and the death index. The cohort included 549 patients randomized and treated in the SVR trial.
    Results: Transplant-free survival for the RVPAS versus modified Blalock-Taussig shunt groups did not differ at 6 years (64% versus 59%,
    Conclusions: By 6 years, the hazards of death or transplant and catheter interventions were not different between the RVPAS versus modified Blalock-Taussig shunt groups. Children assigned to the RVPAS group had 5% higher transplant-free survival, but the difference did not reach statistical significance, and they required more catheter interventions. Both treatment groups have accrued important complications.

    Abstract Objective: To describe child development knowledge needs, priorities, and preferences for education to enhance developmental literacy among parents with children admitted to the neonatal unit (NNU).
    Methods: Two separate cohorts completed a survey; 1) Parents with children graduated from Australian NNUs (n = 316); 2) Parents with infants' inpatient at two South Australian NNUs (n = 209).
    Results: Parents considered it extremely important to understand child development (Graduates: 80%; Inpatients: 71%). Inpatient parents reported lower child development knowledge. Almost half (42%) of graduate parents described the child development education provided by neonatal staff as poor or inadequate. There was consistency in preferences for developmental literacy education provision. Parents desired education to commence during NNU and continue post discharge. Priorities included content specific to preterm birth and how to support child development over the first two years of life. Individualised education by a Neonatal Nurse/Midwife was most preferred.
    Conclusion: Mothers and fathers value guidance to support their child's development during NNU admission and early childhood. Our study highlights the importance of improved early developmental literacy education for parents with children admitted to the neonatal unit.
    Practice implications: Our findings can be used to inform the creation of future educational resources targeting improved parent developmental literacy.
