Identified service gaps included mental health support and help securing public assistance (e.g., cash benefits). Opportunities to enhance PSH care coordination were also identified, such as the need for a simplified approach. Hospitals, health plans and systems considering PSH programmes may look to these results for implementation guidance.What happens when you teach someone about the effects of climate change? Dr Jennifer Rudd shares her reaction to hearing that the world could be on track for 4 °C of global heating in her lifetime and describes how she has made dramatic changes to her home life, her career and her lifestyle, and launched a new climate change education programme called You and CO2 . Traditionally, follow-up of colorectal cancer (CRC) is performed in secondary care. In new models of care, the screening part care could be replaced to primary care. We aimed to synthesise evidence on the diagnostic accuracy of commonly used screeners in CRC follow-up applicable in primary care carcinoembryonic antigen (CEA), ultrasound and physical examination. Medline, EMBASE, Cochrane Trial Register and Web of Science databases were systematically searched. Studies were included if they provided sufficient data for a 2×2 contingency tables. QUADAS-2 was used to assess methodological quality. We performed bivariate random effects meta-analysis, generated a hypothetical cohort, and reported sensitivity and specificity. We included 12 studies (n=3223, median recurrence rate 19.6%). Pooled estimates showed a sensitivity for CEA (≤ 5μg/l) of 59% [47%-70%] and a specificity of 89% [80%-95%]. Only few studies reported sensitivities and specificities for ultrasound (36-70% and 97-100%, respectively) and clinical examination (23% and 27%, respectively). In practice, GPs could perform CEA screening. Radiological examination in a hospital setting should remain part of the surveillance strategy. Personalised algorithms accounting for recurrence risk and changes of CEA-values over time might add to the diagnostic value of CEA in primary care. In practice, GPs could perform CEA screening.

CD49f is expressed on a variety of stem cells and has certain effects on their cytological functions, such as proliferation and differentiation potential. However, whether CD49f is expressed on the surface of adipose tissue-derived mesenchymal stem cells (ADSCs) and its effect on ADSCs has not been clarified. The effects of in vitro culture passage and inflammatory factor treatment on CD49f expression and the adhesion ability of ADSCs from mice and rats were investigated. CD49f cells were selected from rat ADSCs (rADSCs) by magnetic-activated cell sorting (MACS), and the cellular functions of CD49f ADSCs and unsorted ADSCs, including their clonogenic, proliferation, adipogenic and osteogenic differentiation, migration and anti-apoptotic capacities, were compared. CD49f expression and the adhesion ability of ADSCs decreased with increasing in vitro culture passage number. TNF-α and IFN-γ treatment decreased CD49f expression but increased the adhesion ability of ADSCs. After CD49f was blocked with an in mesenchymal stem cell (MSC)-based therapies. Although ejection fraction (EF) is the cornerstone of the assessment of left ventricular (LV) systolic function, its measurement faces a number of challenges related to image quality, assumptions of LV geometry, and expertise. The aim of this study was to test the inter-observer variability of EF and GLS measurement in patients with a broad spectrum of LV function, between physicians and investigators (Inv) with different le
