  3. Article: Consumers or Patients? Medical Device Recipients under Australian Law Straddle Two Worlds.

    Abstract This article analyses the status of medical device recipients under Australian law. The 2021 Gill v Ethicon Sàrl litigation in the Federal Court of Australia has brought the issue to the fore. Moving from the Court's findings, the article dissects the specific vulnerability of medical device recipients and explores the under-researched distinction between patients and consumers under Australian law. The analysis spans the regulatory landscape for medical devices prior to marketing approval, the statutory protections and causes of actions available to consumers under the Australian Consumer Law, and the safeguards for patients developed under medical law (particularly medical negligence). In addition to doctrinal clarifications, the article provides a discussion of key policy considerations that frame the various regimes. Patients and consumers share characteristics, but their legal protections differ in terms of focus and objectives. Medical device recipients straddle both worlds, requiring the highest levels of care and disclosure.

    Abstract This paper aims at presenting the complexity of the process of image target-based color correction (CC). We present issues encountered from acquisition to rendering using colorimetric traditional tools. Target-based CC can be seen as an optimization problem. We have tested SAT and HUE adaptive fine tuning (SHAFT) an automated framework for target-based CC. A key element of SHAFT is an iterative CIEDE2000 variation comparison between a reference and target image. In this work we replace the standard CIEDE2000 with the Euclidean color-difference formula for small-medium color differences in log-compressed Optical Society of America's Committee on Uniform Color Scales (OSA-UCS) space. Results are presented using both formulae. A discussion on the complexity of scene color departures and correction performances concludes the paper. The effect of real scene complexity is shown and how colors are subject to disordered shifts in the color space. Because of this complexity, the role of the CC method as a different color error minimizer emerges.

    Abstract Existing evidence about HIV and SARS-CoV-2 co-infection has, so far, yield conflicting results. Methods: This is a cohort, single center, clinical study aimed at identifying possible characteristics of PLWH that could correlate with the risk of acquiring SARS-CoV-2 and would influence the outcome. 155 cases of SARS-CoV-2 infection were compared with 307 PLWH who tested negative. No variable was associated with an increased risk of infection. SARS-CoV-2 PLWH were completely asymptomatic in 20.6% of cases. Factors associated with severe COVID-19 were age (P=0.001), diabetes (P=0.009) hypertension (P=0.004), cardiovascular disease (P=0.001) or an increasing number of chronic co-morbidities (P=0.002); only the first two variables retained statistical significance in a multivariable model. Only older age and a lower CD4 count were statistically associated with death in the multivariate model. Sixteen PLWH not included in the analysis were infected by SARS-Cov-2 after vaccination. In 4 cases the infection was completely asymptomatic, while in the remaining 12 cases the infection was mild and resembled a flu-like syndrome. Conclusions: No baseline characteristic defines patients at greater risk of SARS-CoV-2 infection. Older age and the presence of multi-comorbidities are risk factors for a severe clinical course. Lower CD4 counts correlate with a fatal outcome.

    Abstract A workshop on mandatory vaccination was pitched to the World Public Health Congress in 2019 and the resultant special issue was pitched to Vaccine in 2020. During this project, the COVID-19 pandemic pushed vaccine policy to the forefront of global public health policy, and the imposition of vaccine mandates prompted a new wave of scholarship in the field. This introductory article employs the heuristic of Lasswell's (1956) policy cycle to synthesise the findings of the articles in the special issue. It considers the temporal lifetime of mandates and highlights findings regarding: the emergence of mandates as a policy option, public support and policy instrument design, what matters in the implementation of mandates, and what we can learn from evaluating them. The second half of the paper categorizes the included papers in terms of what aspects of mandates they study and the methods they employ to do so, in order to formulate a guide for future researchers of vaccine mandates. Scholars study either speculative or existing mandates - research can address several stages of the policy cycle or just one of them, ranging from attitudinal research to implementation studies and impact studies. Historical and contextual studies that take deep dives into a particular mandate are a much needed resource for studying emerging mandates, too, and scoping and framework- building work will undoubtedly be valuable in understanding and appreciating the wealth of knowledge production in this growing field. This special issue can serve as a roadmap for a consolidation of this interdisciplinary research agenda, and provide a helpful resource for decisionmakers at this historical juncture.
