Qualitative health-systems ethics evidence

Ethical tensions related to over-the-counter antibiotic use in rural Cambodia: a qualitative study

Thirty in-depth interviews in Siem Pang district, northeastern Cambodia, showed that over-the-counter antibiotic use reflects cost, distance, convenience, urgent household needs, and dispensers' economic pressures as well as limited knowledge. Participants balanced immediate access against safety and household benefit against collective antimicrobial-resistance risks. Qualitative evidence explains context rather than prevalence or causation.

Mechanical Performance and Compressive Behaviour of Plastic Waste–Based Brick under Horizontal and Vertical Loading Orientations

Bricks containing 20-50% plastic waste were tested under horizontal and vertical compression after 3, 7 and 10 days. Horizontal strength rose with plastic content, reaching 30.15 MPa for the 50% mix at day 10 versus 22.74 MPa for conventional brick. Vertical strength remained only 1.08-1.22 MPa, below the 2.48 MPa control. A composite orientation-sensitive index therefore selected the 40% mix as the better balance.

Clinical and Laboratory Features of Scrub Typhus among Adult Patients with Acute Febrile Illness in Tak and Nakhon Phanom Provinces, Thailand, 2017–2020

Acute-febrile-illness surveillance from 2017-2020 identified 75 scrub-typhus cases: 39 confirmed and 36 probable. Prevalence was 6.9% in Tak versus 1.3% in Nakhon Phanom, while discharge diagnoses matched the study classification only 15% of the time. About one-quarter had coinfections. In Tak, recent forest visits and farm-animal contact were associated with 4.2- and 4.5-fold higher positivity.

AI Adoption Pathways for Hong Kong SMEs: A Readi-ness-Based Model for Achieving Expected Outcomes in Business Development

Grounded in the Resource-Based View, this paper proposes that talent readiness, financial access and change management shape expected business outcomes from AI. It outlines Pearson and partial-correlation tests for a target sample of 150 Hong Kong SMEs and defines transformational, incremental, futile and stagnant pathways. The report is a theoretical model and analysis plan, not completed empirical validation, so its relationships should be treated as hypotheses.

Competição jurisdicional no mercado de padrões tecnológicos

This doctrinal analysis examines forum competition in standard-essential patent and FRAND disputes. Territorial patent rights allow both patentees and implementers to select favorable courts for rates, injunctions and licensing conduct. It revisits Huawei v ZTE, compares anti-suit and related injunctions across major jurisdictions and discusses the WTO China intellectual-property enforcement dispute, ultimately advocating transparency, judicial restraint and comity.

Pristaulacus takakuwai Turrisi & Watanabe 2011

This taxonomic treatment diagnoses the parasitoid wasp Pristaulacus takakuwai from a female holotype collected in Khao Kho National Park, Phetchabun. Diagnostic characters include a body longer than 14 mm, black and reddish-orange coloration, a dark substigmal wing spot, distinctive head and thoracic sculpture, a four-toothed tarsal claw and an ovipositor about 0.9 times the forewing length. Its host remains unknown.

Pristaulacus watanabei Turrisi & Smith 2011

This treatment diagnoses Pristaulacus watanabei from a female holotype collected in Phu Ruea National Park, Loei. The wasp is about 10 mm long, predominantly black with reddish-orange parts, and has a clear wing with a substigmal spot, a U-shaped occipital groove, a four-toothed tarsal claw, a slender petiole and an ovipositor 1.5 times the forewing length. It is placed in the P. comptipennis group; its host is unknown.

Pristaulacus thailandensis Turrisi & Smith 2011

This treatment summarizes Pristaulacus thailandensis from a female holotype trapped near Huay Pok waterfall in Pha Taem National Park, Ubon Ratchathani. The specimen is about 12 mm long, mostly black with reddish-orange mouthparts, antennal base and front/mid legs, a clear wing with a substigmal spot, a long petiole and an ovipositor 1.5 times the forewing length. It belongs to the P. comptipennis group; the host is unknown.

Pristaulacus vietnamensis Turrisi & Smith 2011

The treatment revisits Pristaulacus vietnamensis, whose holotype is from Viet Nam, and documents female specimens from Loei, Lampang and Chaiyaphum in Thailand. Diagnostic traits include a 9-10 mm mostly black body, a dark forewing spot, a very long petiole, an ovipositor 1.3 times forewing length and a four-toothed tarsal claw. The material broadens its cross-border distribution, while the host remains unknown.

Safety and immunogenicity testing of a melioidosis subunit vaccine candidate in cynomolgus macaques

A melioidosis subunit vaccine combining CPS-CRM197 and His-tagless Hcp1 with Alhydrogel plus CpG was evaluated in cynomolgus macaques. It induced CPS-specific IgG, opsonizing antibodies, Hcp1-specific IgG and measurable IFN-gamma T-cell responses. Three doses were well tolerated with no reported adverse events, and antigen production was designed to be GMP-compatible. This supports clinical development but does not yet demonstrate protection in humans.

Clinical predictors of impaired pulmonary diffusing capacity in patients recovering from COVID-19: A secondary analysis of multicentre datasets

A secondary analysis of 572 post-COVID-19 adults found impaired DLCO in 145, about one-quarter of the sample. Multivariable analysis retained age, sex and total lung capacity; age had an adjusted OR of 1.025 and TLC 0.603. Apparent discrimination was modest-to-acceptable (AUC 0.710) in the development data. These are exploratory associations, not an externally validated prediction tool.

Molecular Identification and Familial Segregation of the Hb Malay (HBB:c.59A>G) Variant in a Three-Generation Indonesian Family

Cascade screening of 16 members of a three-generation Indonesian family used a GenoArray panel and Sanger confirmation. Hb Malay (HBB:c.59A>G) was found in 13: 12 heterozygous carriers and one homozygous 15-year-old; three had normal genotypes. The pedigree was consistent with autosomal-recessive inheritance, and no panel-covered alpha-globin deletions were detected. The report illustrates family cascade testing where hemoglobin fractionation is unavailable.

Metal–Organic Framework Composite Piezoelectric Nanofibers for Wireless Tumor Treating Fields Therapy

Mn-Ti bimetallic MOF was incorporated into electrospun polyacrylonitrile nanofibers to generate localized electric fields under mechanical stimulation. Ultrasound produced a reported 0.35-V output, accompanied by alternating fields, tumor-cell apoptosis and good compatibility with normal cells. In vivo experiments suppressed glioblastoma growth. The concept remains preclinical and requires long-term implant safety and treatment-control studies.
