    Abstract Background: As summarized in this article, the widespread implementation of modern school health education (SHE) could become one of the most effective means available to improve the well-being of people in the United States and in other nations. However, the development and evolution of SHE largely remains unorganized, underdeveloped, and neglected by health and education agencies, policymakers, and the public.
    Methods: Essential to the development of any scientific discipline, scientists today use the word ontology to refer to efforts to organize knowledge in particular domains. A useful working definition of a scientific ontology is an explicit, formal specification of a shared conceptualization-a systematic set of shared terms and an explication of their interrelationships. Nine interdependent questions are outlined to help guide the development of an initial, broad, and actionable scientific ontology for SHE.
    Results: Whether and how we respond to these questions arguably will determine the future of SHE research, policy, practice, and equity in the United States.
    Conclusions: An initial ontology might help conceptualize, inform, and facilitate more systematic and strategic local, state, national, and international deliberations and actions to improve SHE.

    Abstract Video gamers can play to negate the psychological impact of stress, which may become problematic when users over-rely on the stress relief potential of gaming. This study used a repeated measures experimental design to investigate the relationships between stress, video gaming, and problematic video gaming behaviours in a convenience sample of 40 students at a UK university. The results indicated that positive affect increased and negative affect decreased, whilst a biological stress measure (instantaneous pulse rate) also decreased after a short video gaming session (

    Abstract Background: Maternal smoking in pregnancy is associated with several adverse maternal and infant health outcomes including increased risk of miscarriage, stillbirth, low birth weight, preterm birth, and asthma. Progress to reduce rates of smoking at time of delivery in England have been slow and over the last decade, less than half of pregnant women who accessed services went onto report having quit. This realist review was undertaken to improve the understanding of how smoking cessation services in pregnancy work and to understand the heterogeneity of outcomes observed.
    Methods: The initial programme theory was developed using the National Centre for Smoking Cession and Training Standard Treatment Programme for Pregnant Women and the National Institute for Health and Care Excellence guidance on treating tobacco dependency. A search strategy and inclusion criteria were developed. Four databases were searched to identify published papers and four websites were hand searched to identify any unpublished literature that could contribute to theory building. Realist logic was applied to the analysis of papers to identify the contexts in which the intended behaviour change mechanism(s) were triggered, or not, and towards what outcomes to develop context mechanism outcome configurations.
    Results: The review included 33 papers. The analysis produced 19 context mechanism outcome configurations structured under five closely interconnected domains (i) articulating harm, (ii) promoting support, (iii) managing cravings, (iv) maintaining commitment and (v) building self-efficacy. This review identifies two key processes involved in how services achieve their effects: how material resources are implemented and relationships. Of the two key processes identified, more existing literature was available evidencing how material resources are implemented. However, the review provides some evidence that non-judgemental and supportive relationships with healthcare workers where regular contact is provided can play an important role in interrupting the social cues and social practice of smoking, even where those around women continue to smoke.
    Conclusions: This review clarifies the range of interconnected and bi-directional relationships between services and the personal and social factors in women's lives. It underscores the importance of aligning efforts across the models five domains to strengthen services' ability to achieve smoking cessation.

    Abstract Introduction: Hereditary factor X deficiency is a rare bleeding disorder, with limited treatment options. This paper describes the approach to pre-clinical development and characterization of a high-purity plasma-derived factor X concentrate, to achieve orphan drug marketing authorization for the treatment of hereditary factor X deficiency.
    Methods: A chromatographic process was developed, to purify factor X from human plasma for fractionation. The product was characterized using in vitro, in vivo and ex vivo tests for potency, purity, thrombogenicity, immunogenicity, toxicity and stability.
    Results: The production process complied with good pharmaceutical manufacturing practice. It achieved 6000-fold purification and 100-fold concentration of the factor X protein compared to human plasma. The factor X protein was 94%-96% pure. Other residual plasma proteins were well below levels in plasma, minimizing potential interference in hemostasis after therapeutic administration. Effective virus-reduction during manufacture, and the absence of thrombogenicity, toxicity and immunogenic potential were confirmed, addressing the main safety concerns historically associated with plasma-derived therapeutics. The freeze-dried product remained stable between +2°C and +30°C for at least three years. After reconstitution with water for injections, the factor X activity was maintained for at least 48 h at +18°C to +22°C.
    Conclusion: Targeted pre-clinical development of the first highly-purified concentrate to treat hereditary factor X deficiency is described. Following international guidelines for nonclinical safety testing, particular strategies were adopted for unmodified products derived from human blood plasma. This approach may also be relevant to the development of other ultra-orphan medicinal products.
