Abstract	Objectives: Video games (games played by electronically manipulating images produced by a computer programme on a screen) are being developed with a specific focus on treating mental health. This narrative review briefly discusses the history of video games and mental health. It then provides a critical discussion on the application of video games as therapeutic tools, then discusses the notion of 'serious games' ( Conclusions: Serious games have preliminary evidence to support their use practically in the clinical treatment of mental illness. Future randomised control trials are necessary to further explore their efficacy and potential areas of application.

Abstract	The Joint Monitoring Programme estimated that 71% of people globally had access to “safely managed” drinking water in 2017. However, typical data collection practices focus only on a household’s primary water source, yet some households in low- and middle-income countries (LMICs) engage in multiple water source use, including supplementing improved water supplies with unimproved water throughout the year. Monte Carlo simulations and previously published data were used to simulate exposure to fecal contamination (as measured by E. coli) along a range of supplemental unimproved source use rates (e.g., 0–100% improved water use, with the remainder made up with unimproved water). The model results revealed a statistically significant increase in annual exposure to E. coli when individuals supplement their improved water with unimproved water just 2 days annually. Additionally, our analysis identified scenarios–realistic for the data set study setting–where supplementing with unimproved water counterintuitively decreases exposure to E. coli. These results highlight the need for evaluating the temporal dynamics in water quality and availability of drinking water sources in LMICs as well as capturing the use of multiple water sources for monitoring global access to safe drinking water.

Abstract	Objectives: The objective of this study was to: 1. Establish the median gestational age of spontaneous labour for low-risk nulliparas. 2. Examine the variation in mode of delivery and short-term neonatal outcomes with gestation at onset of spontaneous labour. Study design: This is a retrospective observational cohort study conducted at a tertiary obstetric unit. The study population was 12, 323 low risk nulliparous women with singleton pregnancies who experienced spontaneous onset of labour. The study period was over seven years, from Jan 1st 2011 to 31st Dec 2017. Exclusion criteria were multiparity, multi-fetal pregnancy, booking after 14 weeks gestation, antepartum or intrapartum death, or any obstetric or fetal indication for delivery with the exception of post-maturity. Gestation of onset of spontaneous labour, demographic variables and maternal and neonatal outcomes were collected. The primary outcome was median gestational age at onset of spontaneous labour and its distribution at term. Secondary outcomes were mode of delivery and neonatal outcomes including low-apgar score and NICU admission. Results: 12, 323 patients were eligible for inclusion. Median gestation for onset of labour was 40.1 weeks gestation, with 80.5% of spontaneous labour occurs by 41 + 0 weeks gestation. The risk of assisted delivery (RR 1.32, 95% CI 1.23 - 1.42), caesarean section (RR 2.17, 95% CI 1.88-2.51) and low-apgar scores (RR 3.13 95% CI 1.50-6.55) increased significantly with spontaneous labour after 41 weeks' gestation. Conclusions: Nulliparous women with low-risk pregnancies are most likely to experience spontaneous labour between 40 + 0 and 40 + 6. 80.5% of spontaneous labour occurred by 41 + 0 weeks gestation. Assisted vaginal delivery, caesarean section and low-apgar scores were significantly more likely with spontaneous labour after 41 weeks' gestation.

Abstract	In utero exposure to angiotensin II receptor blockers (ARBs) has fetotoxic effects including renal failure, oligohydramnios and lung hypoplasia. We present the case of a 24-year-old woman who presented to the maternity services in the 34th week of her first pregnancy. She was taking valsartan for hypertension. Ultrasound showed a structurally normal fetus with anhydramnios. The patient was admitted and valsartan was discontinued. She had spontaneous preterm delivery at 35 weeks' gestation of a baby girl. The baby's urine output was minimal in the first week of life and she was transferred to a paediatric hospital for specialist nephrology input. At 6 months of age, she requires ongoing nephrology follow-up and she remains on treatment for hypertension and anaemia. This case demonstrates the serious adverse effects resulting from ARB exposure in utero, and highlights the importance of avoiding fetotoxic medications in women of childbearing age.

Abstract	The Joint Monitoring Programme (JMP) 2017 Update and Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs) Baselines report classified 71% of the global population as having access to 'safely managed' drinking water. Current global monitoring efforts to track access to safely managed drinking water rely on collecting information on the 'primary' source of drinking water. However, there is evidence that households often rely on multiple sources to meet their water needs in many low- and middle-income countries (LMICs). This systematic review was designed to compile the literature related to the practice of multiple water source use (MWSU) for drinking water in LMICs. A total of 5,318 studies were collected, and after abstract and full-text review, 74 articles were identified for inclusion. Studies reviewed reported from 4 to 100% of the study populations practicing MWSU. Additionally, the practice of supplemental unimproved source use was reported globally, representing households with improved primary source water also accessing unimproved water sources throughout the year. These findings expose gaps in current global water monitoring efforts, revealing potential inflation of reports of 'safe drinking water access' and unaccounted exposure to drinking water from unimproved sources.

Abstract	Objectives: The QUiPP application is used to predict the risk of recurrent preterm birth (PTB) in asymptomatic high risk women with a previous PTB. Our study aims to evaluate the impact of the use of the QUiPP app on maternal anxiety levels. Study design: A retrospective cohort study on asymptomatic pregnant women attending the Prevention of Preterm Birth Clinic in a busy tertiary unit. Women included in the study had a history of previous PTB. The study assessment occurred at approximately 4 weeks prior to the gestation of the earliest previous PTB and included measurement of cervical length and vaginal fetal fibronectin. Data was inputted into the QUiPP application, which in turn estimated risk of preterm delivery at specific intervals. Measured outcomes were gestation at delivery, time from risk assessment to delivery, infant birth weight, NICU admission and length of stay. In addition, maternal anxiety levels were retrospectively assessed using a questionnaire with a Likert scale. Results: Seventy six women were included in the study. All women were asymptomatic for preterm labour at assessment. The mean gestation at the time of risk assessment was 27 weeks, the mean time from risk assessment to delivery was 72 days. Average gestation at time of delivery was 37 weeks (range 22-42 weeks). The preterm birth rate was 29% (n = 22).Seventy seven percent of women who delivered <37 weeks, and 80% who delivered <34 weeks were given QUiPP scores predicting a ≥5% chance of PTB within four weeks of their actual delivery date. Sixteen percent of infants were admitted to NICU (n = 12) with a mean length of stay of 21 days. All infants went home well with their parents.Eighty four percent of respondents to our questionnaire reported feeling anxious about their pregnancy prior to attending the clinic. After receiving a QUIPP score 90% said they felt reassured and 79% reported that the felt less anxious. Conclusion: In asymptomatic women, the use of the QUiPP app helps to predict, prevent, and optimise PTB. This surveillance has a beneficial role for maternal mental well-being in that it reduces anxiety at a key time during a pregnancy.

Abstract	Introduction: Threaded conical centrifuge tubes are ubiquitous in biological laboratories and are frequently used for the storage/transport of potentially biohazardous samples. However, limited data are available on how frequently and from where these tubes leak. These data are valuable for laboratory biorisk management and to inform future studies on risks arising from the routine use of laboratory consumables. Methods: The frequency of leaks from threaded conical centrifuge tubes was tested using a Glo Germ solution as a tracer. Conical tubes (15 and 50 mL) from several brands were filled, inverted, and placed on their side on the benchtop. After 1 h, the presence or absence of leaks on the benchtop surface, tube threads, and exterior was recorded. Results: We observed that liquid leaked out of tubes that were apparently properly threaded in 2% of 15 mL tubes (confidence interval [95% CI] 1.4-2.6) and 1.4% of 50 mL tubes (95% CI 0.2-1.5). After opening, liquid was found on the threads on the outside of the tube in 20% of 15 mL tubes (95% CI 10-31) and 14% of 50 mL tubes (95% CI 1-28). We did not find sufficient evidence that differences in leak rates among brands were practically significant. Conclusions: The fact that leaks were not uncommonly observed from conical centrifuge tubes suggests that mitigations for any hazard posed by a leak should be a component of every biorisk management strategy for protocols involving the manipulation of hazardous substances in these tubes. Further research should be conducted on other activities that could cause tubes to leak (such as centrifugation or vortexing) and should be completed to understand the risks associated with this consumable. Research into the costs and benefits of mitigating the risk of leaks from conical tubes is recommended.
