    Abstract Successful reintegration following prison for those with sexual convictions is a key aim of criminal justice policy. Whilst there is a wealth of research detailing the desistance and reintegration process of current Core Member's (CMs) within Circles of Support and Accountability (CoSA), there is limited research that captures the experiences of ex-CMs once the support of the volunteers had ceased. In addition to this, there is limited research that focuses on the impact COVID-19 has had upon those convicted of sexual offences, living within the community following a CoSA. This study aimed to explore these experiences finding that whilst volunteers helped some ex-CMs to form their own support networks, some ex-CMs appeared to rely more upon informal community support. Participants also maintained fears of their past being discovered and thus, avoided transparency, which is valuable for reintegration. In relation to the pandemic, COVID-19 was recognized as having some detrimental effects for ex-CMs, however, positive impacts and adaptability were also discussed. Conclusions drawn from the analysis provide implications for future multi-perspective and longitudinal research.

    Abstract The disruption of cortical assembly activity has been associated with anesthesia-induced loss of consciousness. However, the relationship between cortical assembly activity and the variations in consciousness associated with natural vigilance states remains unclear. Here, we address this by performing vigilance state-specific clustering analysis on 2-photon calcium imaging data from the sensorimotor cortex in combination with global electroencephalogram (EEG) microstate analysis derived from multi-EEG signals obtained over widespread cortical locations. We report no difference in the structure of assembly activity during quiet wakefulness (QW), non-rapid eye movement sleep (NREMs), or REMs, despite the latter two vigilance states being associated with significantly reduced levels of consciousness relative to QW. However, we describe a significant coordination between global EEG microstate dynamics and general local cortical assembly activity during periods of QW, but not sleep. These results suggest that the coordination of cortical assembly activity with global brain dynamics could be a key factor of sustained conscious experience.

    Abstract Objectives: To evaluate the prevalence of sarcopenia in patients referred to a Multidisciplinary Chronic Pancreatitis (CP) Clinic at the University Hospitals of Leicester.
    Methods: All patients who had undergone CT scans were identified. Controls were identified from CT colonograms with no features of malignancy or pancreatic pathology. The psoas muscle index (PMI) was calculated using the formula: total psoas muscle cross-sectional area at the third lumbar vertebral level (cm
    Results: 58 CP CT scans were available for analysis along with 62 control scans. 71.9% of CP patients had a PMI below the cut-off for their gender, compared to 45.2% of the controls. The mean PMI (±SD) for male CP patients and male controls were 5.54cm
    Conclusions: CP patients had a mean PMI below the cut-off value, suggesting that CP patients are largely sarcopenic. As malnutrition is a significant feature of CP, optimisation of nutrition may help to ameliorate sarcopenia in CP patients.

    Abstract Background: There is a lack of understanding of the barriers reported by healthcare providers when evaluating beta-lactam allergies, but knowledge of these barriers is required for practical and effective implementation interventions.
    Methods: Twenty-five healthcare providers, consisting of physicians, nurses and pharmacists practicing in the areas of intensive care, emergency medicine, infectious disease and general hospital practice, were interviewed between September 2021 and July 2023. Twenty-three of these providers were practising in the USA. A semi-structured interview guide grounded in the Theoretical Domain Framework was used for the interviews. Deductive and inductive analysis was performed on the interview transcripts, and translated into intervention recommendations using the Behaviour Change Wheel.
    Results: Widely held beliefs included a lack of clear policy for the evaluation of allergies, confusing or missing documentation of allergy information, confidence in their own and their colleagues' ability to evaluate allergies when information is available, and pharmacists as the provider most equipped to evaluate beta-lactam allergies.
    Conclusions: Health systems should adopt and disseminate policies for the evaluation of beta-lactam allergies, and promote the use of pharmacists in the evaluation of drug allergies when possible. Allergy sections of electronic health records should be reworked to encourage unambiguous documentation of allergy reactions and support using previously tolerated beta-lactam antibiotics.

    Abstract The aim of this study was to objectively assess, using an automated behavioral monitoring system, any behavioral differences between primiparous and multiparous cows before calving, and to quantify any behavioral differences between assisted (dystocic) and unassisted (eutocic) calvings. Data were collected from 32 multiparous and 12 primiparous Holstein dairy cattle to describe normal calving behavior and parity differences. To quantify behavior related to calving difficulty, the data from 14 animals that had dystocia at calving were matched to cows that had an eutocic calving based on parity, locomotion score, calf breed, calf sex, month, and year of calving. An IceQube (IceRobotics Ltd., South Queensferry, United Kingdom) was fitted to the right hind leg of cows 4 wk before their expected calving date. Data for lying time, standing time, number of steps, motion index (total motion), and the total number of standing and lying bouts (postural transitions) were automatically collected and summed into 15-min blocks. Behavioral variables were summarized into 2-h periods and 24-h periods before analyses. Mixed-effect models were used to analyze cow behavior in the last 4 d before calving (d -4 to -1), and on the day of calving. In the 4 d before calving, compared with multiparous cows, primiparous cows lay down an average 2.8 h/d less, had 9.1 more postural transitions/d (37.7 ± 1.2 vs. 27.6 ± 0.7), walked 172 more steps/d, and had a higher motion index (2,673.2 vs. 1,981.5 units/d). There was an effect of 2-h period on all behavioral variables on the day of calving. No indicator of calving difficulty was found on the day of calving, nor the days leading up to calving. These findings suggest that parity should be considered when predicting the day of calving, and changes in cow behavior on the day of calving could be used to identify calving cows, and to predict the time of calving.
