Abstract	Purpose of the study: To explore the governance regarding prescribing across the world. Study design: We used a web-based questionnaire to ask the doctors about their prescribing practices and perception of governance in relation to prescribing. We sent the questionnaire to all doctors working in our hospital and primarily targeted doctors who had acquired their medical qualifications outside the UK to get a global view. Results: We received 139 responses describing prescribing practices from 40 countries. More than 50% of doctors said there is no restriction in prescribing for themselves and their relatives. A third of them said that they could even prescribe controlled drugs without any restriction. 56% said that one doesn't need a prescription to get antibiotics. When analysed by countries, 80% said that they could self-prescribe and in 50% of the countries, one could get antibiotics without a prescription. Conclusions: In many countries there is poor governance with regards to prescribing. This is due to a lack of restrictions on prescribing (both self-prescribing and for friends/family) and the public's ability to obtain antibiotics and controlled drugs.

Abstract	Purpose of the study: To discover the precise reasons for referring a doctor to the Medical Practitioners Tribunal Service, and whether there are any disparities between referrals of international medical graduates and UK graduates. Further to consider whether understanding the precise reasons would provide insight into the nature of referrals. Study design: We collected and analysed the data from the Medical Practitioners Tribunal Service website over a period of 12 months. Results: There were 228 cases of which 142 (62%) were international medical graduates and 86 (38%) were UK graduates. More international medical graduates were referred for professional misconduct, poor performance and lack of adequate English language. The common reasons for professional misconduct were providing sub-optimal care, sexual misconduct and dishonest behaviour. More UK graduates were referred following convictions due to offences related to alcohol intake and financial dishonesty. There is paucity of good quality information to identify the exact reasons for the disparity. Conclusion: More international medical graduates were referred to the Medical Practitioners Tribunal Service than UK graduates. There was disparity in the nature of the referrals and we hope our findings will inform employers and the regulatory bodies to understand that comprehensive induction, inclusion, mentoring and adjustments are needed to support international medical graduates to mitigate the risks of failure and help them to meet the required professional standards.

Abstract	Objectives: The aim of the current investigation is to estimate the incidence and risk for neurocognitive disorders (NCD) in a chronic kidney disease (CKD) cohort with diabetes, compared with an age and sex-matched control cohort. Design: Longitudinal follow-up. Setting: District general hospital North Wales, UK. Participants: Ninety-two patients with CKD and an age and gender-matched sample of 143 controls at baseline and at approximately 36 months. Interventions: Cognitive function was assessed in the patients with CKD (mean age 75.8±9.1; 49 men: 43 women) and the control cohort (mean age 74.4±6.2; 71 men: 72) at baseline and at approximately 36 months. An NCD diagnosis was based on patient, informant, case note review, neuropsychological assessment and application of Diagnostic and Statistical Manual of Mental disorders V.5 (DSM-5) for an NCD and Petersen's criteria for mild cognitive impairment. Results: Follow-up neuropsychological assessment and application of DSM-5 criteria of the cognitively normal patients and controls revealed, 25/92 (27%) of the CDK and 20/143 (13.9%) in the control cohort developed an NCD. The CKD cohort had a twofold increased risk for the development of an NCD compared with the controls, adjusted for age and sex. The incidence rate for an NCD in the CKD cohort was 10.5 and 5.1 in the controls, respectively. No association was observed with the stage of CKD and cognitive function. Conclusions: This longitudinal investigation found that patients with CKD have a twofold increased risk for the development of an NCD. The current investigation highlighted the need to recognise that NCD in patients with CKD is a common comorbidity and that they are at a much higher risk for the development of a significant neurodegenerative disorders. In view of these risks, neuropsychological screening and assessment should be incorporated into normal CKD clinical practice and management.

Abstract	Objective: This investigation reports the cause and the quality of death certification in a community cohort of patients with Parkinson's disease (PD) and controls at 18 years. Setting: Denbighshire North Wales, UK. Participants: The community-based cohorts consisted of 166 patients with PD and 102 matched controls. Primary outcomes: All-cause mortality was ascertained at 18 years by review of hospitals' primary care records and examination of death certificates obtained from the UK General Register Office. Mortality HRs were estimated using Cox proportional regression, controlling for covariates including age at study entry, age at death, gender, motor function, mood, health-related quality of life (HRQoL) and cognitive function. Results: After 18 years, 158 (95%) of patients in the PD cohort and 34 (33%) in the control cohort had died. Compared with the general UK population, the PD cohort had a higher risk of mortality (standard mortality rate, 1.82, 95% CI 1.55 to 2.13). As the primary or underlying cause of death, PD was not reported in 75/158 (47%) of the death certificates. In addition, although 144/158 (91%) of the PD cohort had a diagnosis of dementia, this was reported in less than 10% of death certificates. The main cause of death reported in the PD cohort was pneumonia (53%), followed by cardiac-related deaths (21%). Compared with controls, patients with PD had a greater risk of pneumonia (2.03, 95% CI 1.34 to 3.6), poorer HRQoL and more likely to reside in institutional care at death (P<0.01). Conclusion: This investigation found that PD was associated with an excess risk of mortality compared with the general population. However, PD as a primary or underlying cause of death recorded on certificates was found to be suboptimal. This suggests that the quality of mortality statistics drawn from death certificates alone is not a valid or reliable source of data.

Abstract	The treatment and control of cyanobacterial blooms using copper-based algaecides in water reservoirs have historically been used; however, due to the adverse impact of copper on the environment, water authorities have been researching and studying new and innovative ways to control cyanobacterial blooms. Hydrogen peroxide has been investigated as an environmentally friendly alternative, and this research aims to determine the impact of water quality on its effectiveness based on the decay characteristics in different water samples. Natural water samples from South Australian reservoirs and river were used to evaluate hydrogen peroxide decomposition and provide a better strategy for water operators in using it as an algaecide. Our experiments show the dependency of hydrogen peroxide decomposition not only on water quality but also on the initial hydrogen peroxide dose. A higher initial hydrogen peroxide dose can trigger the increase of pH, leading to increased consumption of hydrogen peroxide. In addition, the hydrogen peroxide decomposition is significantly accelerated with the rise of copper concentration in water samples. Moreover, it is found that UV light can also affect the decomposition rate of hydrogen peroxide. The hydrogen peroxide decay is more significant under UV light for the samples with lower hydrogen peroxide concentrations. Our study also shows the impact of dissolved organic carbon (DOC) on hydrogen peroxide decomposition is not substantial. The study also presents a modelling method to optimise hydrogen peroxide application based on water quality characteristics. Our findings can provide knowledge for the water industry to produce a suitable model which can be used to optimise the application of hydrogen peroxide for the control of cyanobacteria.

Abstract	High-frequency cyanobacteria monitoring often uses in-situ fluorescence of phycocyanin (f-PC). However, f-PC must be calibrated for the dominant cyanobacteria species, and it cannot distinguish cyanobacteria taxa, which relies on conventional time-consuming cyanobacteria identification methods. This study proposes a framework to automate f-PC species-specific compensation through three components: (1) prediction of the dominant cyanobacteria species using data-driven models and routine environmental monitoring data; (2) determination of species-specific f-PC per biomass in controlled laboratory experiments; and (3) automation of f-PC species compensation. The framework was validated by applying it to Myponga drinking water reservoir in South Australia. Three machine learning techniques using only high-frequency water temperature data were compared to predict the dominant cyanobacteria species. The framework application to Myponga drinking water reservoir improved the agreement of f-PC with conventional cyanobacteria biovolume measurements, and provided rapid, low-cost identification of the dominant cyanobacteria species, which can support proactive species-targeted cyanobacteria management.
