Cultural Adaptation of Overdose Education Programs
Black Americans have experienced disproportionate overdose deaths due to structural barriers inflicted by systemic racism, particularly among individuals who co-ingest opioids and stimulants. Despite efforts to improve overdose prevention resources on a national level, Black Americans continue to have lower access to naloxone for overdose reversal, are less likely to have received naloxone training, and have lower engagement in other overdose pre…

This study identified the top ten research priorities to guide the development of EECC over the next five years. At the first global EECC Research Conference in November 2024, 46 clinicians, researchers, and policymakers representing…
Implementing Innovative Precepted Clinical Placements Through Partnership Between Academia and Practice
BACKGROUND: In Canada, instructor-led group models have dominated clinical learning delivery in nursing despite significant health care system changes over the past decade. Recent pressures on the health care system highlighted the need for innovative approaches to clinical learning. METHOD: To improve access to quality placements, members of the School of Nursing collaborated with practice partners to introduce a novel precepted placement model …
Conceptually accurate signed English transliteration
This paper is the fifth in a series concerned with factors affecting the level of access that educational interpreters provide to deaf and hard-of-hearing students. In previous papers, we have examined accuracy and intelligibility of educational interpreters who use Cued Speech (CS) and Signing Exact English (SEE). In this study, accuracy, or the proportion of the message correctly produced by the interpreter, was evaluated in 12 Conceptually Acc…

Deferred multimodal input enhances L2 listening and fast-speech adaptation
For learners who find reading easier than listening and struggle to keep up with the speed of native speakers, listening practice that emphasizes linking sounds to written words and adapting to speech rate is essential. This study investigates the effects of deferred multimodal presentation , an input method that temporally separates reading and listening. Unlike simultaneous input (e.g., reading-while-listening), this sequential approach reduces…
Smart water metering as a non-invasive tool to infer dwelling type and occupancy – Implications for the collection of neighbourhood-level housing and tourism statistics
The international rollout of advanced metering infrastructure (AMI) in the residential water supply sector affords tremendous benefits in driving water-use efficiencies, accurate billing and network management (e.g. leak detection). AMI, using ‘smart meters’ fitted at a dwelling level, record water consumption at high temporal resolution. Since water is typically only consumed when householders are present, these data could offer a non-intrusive …

Uncertainties in macroeconomic assessments of low-carbon transition pathways - The case of the European iron and steel industry
The climate targets agreed in Paris 2015 render deep decarbonization of energy- and emission-intensive industries crucial. Policy makers are interested in the macroeconomic consequences of such decarbonization pathways and often rely on integrated modelling studies. However, the underlying modelling assumptions and uncertainties often remain unquestioned or invisible, although they may govern the models' results. For the case of a zero-process em…

Rejoinder to Jonathan Smith, Research Note on Shun 舜
In his Research Note, “Shun 舜 and the Interpretation of Early Orthographical Variation,” in this issue of Early China , Jonathan Smith made several claims about the early evolution of the graph 舜, in particular suggesting that it should be identified with the graph lin 粦 that occurs in certain Western Zhou bronze inscriptions. While showing that these claims are ill-supported, I nevertheless concur in the identification with the bronze-inscriptio…
Guanylate Cyclase Activity in Human Leukemic and Normal Lymphocytes
Cyclic GMP is thought to be involved in lymphocytic cell proliferation and leukemogenesis. In general, the nucleotide is elevated in leukemic vs. normal lymphocytes and changes have been reported to occur during remission and relapse of this disease. Although the cA/cG ratios are higher for normal lymphocytes the basal guanylate cyclase (EC 4.6.1.2) activities do not correlate with altered cyclic GMP levels. The crude guanylate cyclases display c…
Early Chinese Manuscript Writings for the Name of the Sage Emperor Shun 舜, and the Legacy of Warring States-Period Orthographic Variation in Early Chinese Received Texts
The graph used to write the name of the mythical emperor Shun 舜 in received texts is a puzzling one. It is not obvious that any component in the graph, as it appears today, is semantically motivated, nor is there any element well suited to representing the name Shun phonetically. Texts like the Shuowen jiezi 說文解字 preserve an alternate writing of the name under the rubric “ guwen 古文,” but this too is hard to analyze in terms of the semantic and ph…
China, Revolution and Presentism
When the idea of a round table on presentism was mooted at a board meeting of Past and Present, my thoughts turned to Herbert Butterfield’s Whig Interpretation of History, a text I hadn’t read since I was an undergraduate. Going back to Butterfield, however, I discovered that he never actually used the term.1 His target was the tendency he perceived in late nineteenth- and early twentieth-century British historiography to write British history as…

Treatment delay in patients with bladder tumours
Previous work has shown that the hospitals are the most important source of delay in treatment of bladder cancer rather than the patient or the general practitioner. We have studied referral of patients for investigation and treatment in the North West Region using data from the cancer registry. Delay in treatment for this disease is appreciably longer than for the other common cancers we have studied. Various factors associated with speed of tre…
Factors associated with speed of diagnosis, referral, and treatment in colorectal cancer
Delay in the presentation of symptoms and in referral of patients for surgical opinion remains an important problem in colorectal cancer. Factors influencing patients to consult early include advice from close family or other associates and abdominal pain or vomiting, or both, as one of the early symptoms. More localised rectal symptoms and loss of weight are often associated with long delay. The "classic" symptom pictures are not often seen in t…

Maternal Age and Birth Rank in the Aetiology of Mongolism
The association beween the incidence of mongolism and maternal age and birth rank was examined by comparing a series of 217 mongoloid infants born in 1942-52 in Birmingham England with a control group of 1156 infants representative of all births in the city during this period. The incidence of mongolism clearly increased with maternal age from a low of 0.31/1000 in the 15-19 and 20-24 year maternal age group to a high of 9.99/1000 in the 45-49 ye…

Incidence, Mortality, and Sex Distribution of Mongoloid Defectives
Alternative splicing is a tightly regulated co- and post-transcriptional process contributing to the transcriptome diversity observed in eukaryotes. Several methods for detecting differential junction usage (DJU) from RNA sequencing (RNA-seq) datasets exist. Yet, efforts to integrate the results from DJU methods are lacking. Here, we present Baltica, a framework that provides workflows for quality control, de novo transcriptome assembly with Stri…
A Further Note on Mongolism in Twins
The discovery of an abnormality of the chromo somes of the cells of mongoloid defectives (Lejeune, Gautier, and Turpin, 1959a) and its later confirma tion (Lejeune, Gautier and Turpin, 1959b; Jacobs, Baikie, Court Brown, and Strong, 1959) would seem to provide evidence that the causal mechanism of this condition operates at an early stage in the development of the affected individual. It now seems most likely that the condition is determined at o…

Inflation and Relative Price Variability
Little evidence is found of a stable structural relationship between aggregate inflation and relative price variability in the Un ited Kingdom. The main contributors to relative price variability are prices of goods that are sensitive to policy changes such as alcohol and tobacco, rates, and rents. This contrasts with the U.S. experien ce where changes in relative price variability can be traced to commo dity price shocks, rather than policy. The…

The East Timor Crisis
On 11 June 1999, the United Nations Mission in East Timor (UNAMET) was established through the Security Council Resolution 1246 to implement the 5 May Agreement between Indonesia and Portugal which granted East Timor a referendum or consultation on its future. The term consultation was used for two reasons. First, to placate a Habibie administration concerned that an outright referendum would open up deep divisions within East Timor and lead to c…
