Abstract
Abstract
Cross-border health data sharing is essential to facilitate vital health research into new treatments and to improve patient care and safety across Europe. The flagship European Health Data Space (EHDS) aims to promote better exchange and access to health data through the creation of a European-wide infrastructure. However, significant barriers to cross-border data sharing must first be resolved in order to fully ensure the successful functioning of the Data Space. To this end, the European Commission established a Joint Action (TEHDAS), as the policy development tool for the development of the EHDS. This presentation will be based around the findings of the recent TEHDAS report ‘Barriers to cross-border sharing of health data for secondary use and options to overcome them.’ The report draws on the results of a dedicated literature review, 133 case studies from across 23 countries and expert interviews to identify the primary barriers to cross-border data sharing and options to overcome these from the perspective of European data users (research and policymakers). The session will start with a concise presentation of the report methodology. The research team will then deliver an interactive presentation, in which they succinctly outline each barrier and policy option and ask participants to vote for their preferred policy option to overcome each barrier identified. EUPHA participants votes will inform the final TEHDAS recommendations on mitigations and solutions for barriers to cross-border data sharing which will be submitted to the European Commission for incorporation in the European Health Data Space legislative proposal.

Abstract
We report a precise measurement of the parity-violating (PV) asymmetry A_{PV} in the elastic scattering of longitudinally polarized electrons from ^{48}Ca. We measure A_{PV}=2668±106(stat)±40(syst) parts per billion, leading to an extraction of the neutral weak form factor F_{W}(q=0.8733 fm^{-1})=0.1304±0.0052(stat)±0.0020(syst) and the charge minus the weak form factor F_{ch}-F_{W}=0.0277±0.0055. The resulting neutron skin thickness R_{n}-R_{p}=0.121±0.026(exp)±0.024(model) fm is relatively thin yet consistent with many model calculations. The combined CREX and PREX results will have implications for future energy density functional calculations and on the density dependence of the symmetry energy of nuclear matter.

Abstract
We report precision determinations of the beam-normal single spin asymmetries (A_{n}) in the elastic scattering of 0.95 and 2.18 GeV electrons off ^{12}C, ^{40}Ca, ^{48}Ca, and ^{208}Pb at very forward angles where the most detailed theoretical calculations have been performed. The first measurements of A_{n} for ^{40}Ca and ^{48}Ca are found to be similar to that of ^{12}C, consistent with expectations and thus demonstrating the validity of theoretical calculations for nuclei with Z≤20. We also report A_{n} for ^{208}Pb at two new momentum transfers (Q^{2}) extending the previous measurement. Our new data confirm the surprising result previously reported, with all three data points showing significant disagreement with the results from the Z≤20 nuclei. These data confirm our basic understanding of the underlying dynamics that govern A_{n} for nuclei containing ≲50 nucleons, but point to the need for further investigation to understand the unusual A_{n} behavior discovered for scattering off ^{208}Pb.

Abstract
We report a precision measurement of the parity-violating asymmetry A_{PV} in the elastic scattering of longitudinally polarized electrons from ^{208}Pb. We measure A_{PV}=550±16(stat)±8(syst) parts per billion, leading to an extraction of the neutral weak form factor F_{W}(Q^{2}=0.00616 GeV^{2})=0.368±0.013. Combined with our previous measurement, the extracted neutron skin thickness is R_{n}-R_{p}=0.283±0.071 fm. The result also yields the first significant direct measurement of the interior weak density of ^{208}Pb: ρ_{W}^{0}=-0.0796±0.0036(exp)±0.0013(theo) fm^{-3} leading to the interior baryon density ρ_{b}^{0}=0.1480±0.0036(exp)±0.0013(theo) fm^{-3}. The measurement accurately constrains the density dependence of the symmetry energy of nuclear matter near saturation density, with implications for the size and composition of neutron stars.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Gait analysis has been used for decades to quantify knee function in patients with knee osteoarthritis; however, it is unknown whether and to what extent inter-laboratory differences affect the comparison of gait data between studies. Therefore, the aim of this study was to perform an inter-laboratory comparison of knee biomechanics and muscle activation patterns during gait of patients with knee osteoarthritis. METHODS Knee biomechanics and muscle activation patterns from patients with knee osteoarthritis were analyzed, previously collected at Dalhousie University (DAL: n = 55) and Amsterdam UMC, VU medical center (VUmc: n = 39), using their in-house protocols. Additionally, one healthy male was measured at both locations. Both direct comparisons and after harmonization of components of the protocols were made. Inter-laboratory comparisons were quantified using statistical parametric mapping analysis and discrete gait parameters. RESULTS The inter-laboratory comparison showed offsets in the sagittal plane angles, moments and frontal plane angles, and phase shifts in the muscle activation patterns. Filter characteristics, initial contact identification and thigh anatomical frame definitions were harmonized between the laboratories. After this first step in protocol harmonization, the offsets in knee angles and sagittal plane moments remained, but the inter-laboratory comparison of the muscle activation patterns improved. CONCLUSIONS Inter-laboratory differences obstruct valid comparisons of gait datasets from patients with knee osteoarthritis between gait laboratories. A first step in harmonization of gait analysis protocols improved the inter-laboratory comparison. Further protocol harmonization is recommended to enable valid comparisons between labs, data-sharing and multicenter trials to investigate knee function in patients with knee osteoarthritis.

Abstract
BACKGROUND The knee adduction moment (KAM) is often elevated in medial knee osteoarthritis (KOA). The aim of this study was to evaluate effects on KAM and patient-reported outcomes of a six-week gait training program. METHODS Twenty-one patients (61 ± 6 years) with KOA participated in a six-week biofeedback training program to encourage increased toe-in (all patients) and increased step-width (five patients). Patients received real-time visual feedback while walking on an instrumented treadmill. We analysed the effect of the gait modification(s) on peak KAM in week six and three and six months post-training. We also evaluated the effect on pain and functional ability. RESULTS Of 21 patients starting the program, 16 completed it with high attendance (15 and 16 respectively) at the three and six month follow-ups. First peak KAM was significantly reduced by up to 14.0% in week six with non-significant reductions of 8.2% and 5.5% at the follow-ups. Functional ability (assessed using the WOMAC questionnaire) improved significantly after the training (eight point reduction, p = 0.04 in week six and nine point reduction, p = 0.04 at six-month follow-up). There was also a trend towards reduction in WOMAC pain (p = 0.06) at follow-up. CONCLUSIONS Biofeedback training to encourage gait modifications is feasible and leads to short-term benefits. However, at follow-up, reductions in KAM were less pronounced in some participants suggesting that to influence progression of KOA in the longer term, a permanent regime to reinforce the effects of the training program is needed. Trial number: ISRCTN14687588.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE We tested the ability of a type 1 diabetes (T1D) genetic risk score (GRS) to predict progression of islet autoimmunity and T1D in at-risk individuals. RESEARCH DESIGN AND METHODS We studied the 1,244 TrialNet Pathway to Prevention study participants (T1D patients' relatives without diabetes and with one or more positive autoantibodies) who were genotyped with Illumina ImmunoChip (median [range] age at initial autoantibody determination 11.1 years [1.2-51.8], 48% male, 80.5% non-Hispanic white, median follow-up 5.4 years). Of 291 participants with a single positive autoantibody at screening, 157 converted to multiple autoantibody positivity and 55 developed diabetes. Of 953 participants with multiple positive autoantibodies at screening, 419 developed diabetes. We calculated the T1D GRS from 30 T1D-associated single nucleotide polymorphisms. We used multivariable Cox regression models, time-dependent receiver operating characteristic curves, and area under the curve (AUC) measures to evaluate prognostic utility of T1D GRS, age, sex, Diabetes Prevention Trial-Type 1 (DPT-1) Risk Score, positive autoantibody number or type, HLA DR3/DR4-DQ8 status, and race/ethnicity. We used recursive partitioning analyses to identify cut points in continuous variables. RESULTS Higher T1D GRS significantly increased the rate of progression to T1D adjusting for DPT-1 Risk Score, age, number of positive autoantibodies, sex, and ethnicity (hazard ratio [HR] 1.29 for a 0.05 increase, 95% CI 1.06-1.6; P = 0.011). Progression to T1D was best predicted by a combined model with GRS, number of positive autoantibodies, DPT-1 Risk Score, and age (7-year time-integrated AUC = 0.79, 5-year AUC = 0.73). Higher GRS was significantly associated with increased progression rate from single to multiple positive autoantibodies after adjusting for age, autoantibody type, ethnicity, and sex (HR 2.27 for GRS >0.295, 95% CI 1.47-3.51; P = 0.0002). CONCLUSIONS The T1D GRS independently predicts progression to T1D and improves prediction along T1D stages in autoantibody-positive relatives.

Abstract
Behaviour change, specifically that which decreases cancer risk, is an essential element of cancer control. Little information is available about how awareness of risk factors may be changing over time. This study describes the awareness of cancer risk behaviours among adult New Zealanders in two cross-sectional studies conducted in 2001 and 2014/5.Telephone interviews were conducted in 2001 (n = 436) and 2014/5 (n = 1064). Participants were asked to recall things they can do to reduce their risk of cancer. They were then presented with a list of potential risk behaviours and asked if these could increase or decrease cancer risk.Most New Zealand adults could identify at least one action they could take to reduce their risk of cancer. However, when asked to provide specific examples, less than a third (in the 2014/5 sample) recalled key cancer risk reduction behaviours such as adequate sun protection, physical activity, healthy weight, limiting alcohol and a diet high in fruit. There had been some promising changes since the 2001 survey, however, with significant increases in awareness that adequate sun protection, avoiding sunbeds/solaria, healthy weight, limiting red meat and alcohol, and diets high in fruit and vegetables decrease the risk of developing cancer.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE To decrease the incidence of bloodstream infection (BSI) for neonates <29 weeks gestation through quality improvement. DESIGN Commencing in September 2011, eight neonatal intensive care units (NICUs) in New South Wales and Australian Capital Territory, Australia participated in the Sepsis Prevention in NICUs Group project, a multicentre quality improvement initiative to reduce neonatal infection through implementation of potentially better practices and development of teaching resources. Data were collected for neonates <29 weeks gestation from D3 to 35, using point of care data entry, for BSI, central line-associated BSI (CLABSI) and antibiotic use. Exponentially weighted moving average data trend lines for rates of BSI, CLABSI and antibiotic use for each NICU were automatically generated and composite charts were provided each month to participating NICUs. RESULTS Between January 2012 and December 2014, data were collected from D3 to 35 for 1075 neonates <29 weeks gestation who survived >48 h, for a total of 33 933 bed days and 14 447 central line days. There was a significant decrease from 2012 to 2014 in BSI/1000 bed days (7.8±3.0 vs 3.8±1.1, p=0.000), CLABSI/1000 bed days (4.6±2.1 vs 2.1±0.8, p=0.003), CLABSI/1000 central line days (9.9±4.3 vs 5.4±1.7, p=0.012) and antibiotic days/100 bed days (31.1±4.3 vs 25.5±4.2, p=0.046). CONCLUSIONS This study demonstrates a >50% reduction in BSI in extremely premature neonates from D3 to 35 following a collaborative quality improvement project to reduce neonatal infection across an NICU network, supported by timely provision of data.

Abstract
Viene descritto un sistema che produce rappresentazioni di superfici anatomiche basandosi su immagini ottenute mediante tomografia assiale computerizzata a raggi X, risonanza magnetica ed ecografia. Le rappresentazioni vengono create per mostrare il carattere tridimensionale (3D) dell'anatomia interna ed esterna. Le immagini possono essere sezionate e manipolate sullo schermo come se fossere l'oggetto tridimensionale che rappresentano. Con questo sistema è possibile pianificare interventi chirurgici per simulazione. È inoltre possibile esporre ed isolare strutture sottostanti di un oggetto anatomico, aumentando così il valore diagnostico dei dati di partenza. Tale sistema di rappresentazione fornisce anche dati per l'azionamento di una fresatrice a controllo numerico per la produzione di modelli anatomici, protesi e impianti. Le esigenze di pianificazione nella chirurgia maxillofacciale sono particolarmente marcate. Va considerata sia la funzione, sia l'estetica facciale1. I sistemi di pianificazione ricorrono ad una combinazione di fotografie, modelli e radiografie planari nel tentativo di tenere conto della natura tridimensionale dell'anatomia. Quindici anni fa i progressi nella tecnologia informatica e della rappresentazione, insieme alla disponibilità della tomografia assiale computerizzata a raggi X (TC), permisero di avviare la creazione di una unità di lavoro per clinici facente uso di grafici al computer per simulare, pianificare e prevedere il risultato della chirurgia maxillofacciale. Benchè inizialmente le applicazioni cliniche fossero alquanto limitate, esse sono notevolmente aumentate con il costante miglioramento dei computer e degli algoritmi. Oltre alle applicazioni originarie, esse comprendono ora: la cranioplastica, la diagnosi radiologica complessa, l'analisi di fratture, l'osservazione del feto e la produzione di impianti scheletrici adattati. Sono allo stato esplorativo le applicazioni in campo neurologico.

Abstract
ISSUE ADDRESSED School gardens are a potentially important health promotion tool, allowing the growth and consumption of fruit and vegetables to be embedded within the students' educational experience. This study aimed to investigate the implementation of edible gardens in New Zealand (NZ) primary and secondary schools. METHODS A questionnaire mailed to principals from a randomly selected sample of 764 NZ schools included questions on whether or not the school had a garden and, if so, what produce was grown; how long the garden had been in place; how harvested crops were distributed; and curriculum integration. RESULTS Among 491 responding schools (64.3% response rate), 52.9% currently had an edible garden - with most gardens started in the previous two years. Vegetables, herbs and tree fruit were commonly grown. Gardens were integrated into curriculum subjects, cooking lessons, recipes and messages promoting increased fruit and vegetable consumption. CONCLUSIONS Edible gardens were common within NZ schools, though often relatively new, and were used for teaching in a variety of curriculum areas. SO WHAT?: Given the current popularity of school gardens, there are opportunities to deliver health promotion messages regarding consumption of fruit and vegetables, and for these to be reinforced by real life experience growing and preparing healthy food.

Abstract
INTRODUCTION Diversion colitis is a non-specific inflammation of a de-functioned segment of intestine after diversion of the faecal stream. AIM The aim of this study was to review the current level of knowledge about diversion colitis. METHODS A literature search of relevant literature in the English language was carried out on PUBMED, MEDLINE and EMBASE. The following keywords were used: diversion colitis; disuse colitis; proctitis; colonic bacterial flora; stoma; de-functioned colon; faecal diversion; short chain fatty acids and lymphoid follicular hyperplasia. RESULTS In total 35 articles met the inclusion criteria. 22 were case series, 9 were case reports, 2 were retrospective analysis and 2 were prospective randomized controlled studies. Diversion colitis is invariably present in all diverted segments of the colon. It is usually asymptomatic but can present with tenesmus, rectal discharge, bleeding per rectum and abdominal pain. Major macroscopic changes include mucosal nodularity, erythema and friability. Microscopic features are predominantly those of lymphoid follicular hyperplasia, apthous ulceration and chronic inflammatory changes, mostly limited to sub mucosa. Treatment modalities include surveillance for asymptomatic patients, restoration of bowel continuity for severely symptomatic cases and the use of short chain fatty acid (SCFA) enemas in selected cases. CONCLUSION The clinical presentation of diversion colitis varies significantly. In symptomatic patients short chain fatty acid enema may help. Further prospective studies are required for evaluation.

Abstract
ISSUE ADDRESSED This paper aims to explore the presence and role of edible gardens in Aotearoa/New Zealand Early Childhood Education Services (ECES). METHODS Participant ECES providers were identified from the Ministry of Education database of Early Childhood Education Services (March 2009). These include Education and Care and Casual Education and Care, Kindergarten, Home-based Education and Care services, Playcentres, Te Kōhanga Reo. A structured, self-administered questionnaire was sent to the Principal or Head Teacher of the service. RESULTS Of the 211 ECES that responded (55% response rate), 71% had edible gardens, incorporating vegetables, berry fruit, tree fruit, edible flowers and nut trees. Garden activities were linked with teaching across all strands of the New Zealand early childhood curriculum. In addition, 34% provided guidance on using garden produce and 30% linked the garden with messages on fruit and vegetable consumption. Most gardens were established recently (past 2 years) and relied on financial and non-financial support from parents, teachers and community organisations. Barriers included a lack of funding, space, time and staff support. CONCLUSIONS/IMPLICATIONS Study findings suggest that gardens are already being used as a versatile teaching tool in many ECES settings. Most gardens are new, with a need to support the sustainability and workforce development among teachers and parents in order to be able to maintain these resources for future generations. SO WHAT?: Given the inherent links between gardening and healthy food and exercise, there seem to be extensive opportunities for health promotion aligned with the edible garden movement.

Abstract
Improvements in the surgical technique of total knee replacement (TKR) are continually being sought. There has recently been interest in three-dimensional (3D) pre-operative planning using magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) and CT. The 3D images are increasingly used for the production of patient-specific models, surgical guides and custom-made implants for TKR. The users of patient-specific instrumentation (PSI) claim that they allow the optimum balance of technology and conventional surgery by reducing the complexity of conventional alignment and sizing tools. In this way the advantages of accuracy and precision claimed by computer navigation techniques are achieved without the disadvantages of additional intra-operative inventory, new skills or surgical time. This review describes the terminology used in this area and debates the advantages and disadvantages of PSI.

Abstract
In September 2007, the National Institute for Health and Clinical Excellence (NICE) in the UK issued a newly updated guideline (CG56) on the early care of adults and children with head injuries.(8) The guideline gives some new recommendations, in particular with regards to imaging of children with head injury. We undertook a study to investigate the management of children presenting with head injury to our emergency department and to assess their outcomes and the CT scanning rate. We then retrospectively applied the new NICE guidelines, using information documented in the case notes, to establish whether adherence to the guidelines would significantly affect CT scanning rates. 237 paediatric head injury cases were seen over the 2-month period that was studied. The actual CT scanning rate observed was 2.1%, rising to 18.1% after strictly applying NICE criteria. This increased scanning rate raises some important issues with regards to patient safety and service provision.

Abstract
In this work a thermal interface material fabricated by thermocompression bonding of vertically aligned carbon nanotube turf (VACNT) to metallized substrates was characterized. The VACNT structure was fabricated onto silicon substrates using chemical vapor deposition. The structures were then transferred to metallized substrates using thermocompression bonding. The resulting structure consisted of VACNT turf sandwiched between two layers of Au. Two configurations of VACNT, full coverage and patterned, were fabricated and tested. In addition, the thermal interface resistance of structures at intermediate steps in the thermocompression bonding process were measured. For the full coverage turf a thermal interface resistance of 1.082 cm(2) degrees C W(-1) at an applied load of 1 N was measured, while a thermal interface resistance of 0.044 cm(2) degrees C W(-1) at a load of 1 N was measured for the patterned turf configuration.

Abstract
This study examined the relationship between the cross-over sign and the true three-dimensional anatomical version of the acetabulum. We also investigated whether in true retroversion there is excessive femoral head cover anteriorly. Radiographs of 64 hips in patients being investigated for symptoms of femoro-acetabular impingement were analysed and the presence of a cross-over sign was documented. CT scans of the same hips were analysed to determine anatomical version and femoral head cover in relation to the anterior pelvic plane after correcting for pelvic tilt. The sensitivity and specificity of the cross-over sign were 92% and 55%, respectively for identifying true acetabular retroversion. There was no significant difference in total cover between normal and retroverted cases. Anterior and posterior cover were, however, significantly different (p < 0.001 and 0.002). The cross-over sign was found to be sensitive but not specific. The results for femoral head cover suggest that retroversion is characterised by posterior deficiency but increased cover anteriorly.

Abstract
We present a new CT-based method which measures cover of the femoral head in both normal and dysplastic hips and allows assessment of acetabular inclination and anteversion. A clear topographical image of the head with its covered area is generated. We studied 36 normal and 39 dysplastic hips. In the normal hips the mean cover was 73% (66% to 81%), whereas in the dysplastic group it was 51% (38% to 64%). The significant advantage of this technique is that it allows the measurements to be standardised with reference to a specific anatomical plane. When this is applied to assessing cover in surgery for dysplasia of the hip it gives a clearer understanding of where the corrected hip stands in relation to normal and allows accurate assessment of inclination and anteversion.

Abstract
Platinum (Pt) colloids modified by the chiral ligand synphos were prepared with the goal of obtaining a catalytic nanomaterial and were subsequently embedded in silica to form a heterogeneous catalyst. The systems were characterized by (31)P-NMR, x-ray diffraction, molecular modeling and diffuse reflectance infrared Fourier transform spectroscopy (DRIFTs) measurements. These colloids, both as 'quasi-homogeneous catalysts' (or soluble heterogeneous catalysts) and embedded in silica (heterogeneous catalysts) were employed in the selective hydrogenolysis of highly sterically constrained bicyclo[2.2.2]oct-7-enes and hydrogenation of ethyl pyruvate.

Abstract
The objectives of the study were to investigate the rates of sexually transmitted infections (STIs), uptake of full STI screening and contraceptive use during pre- and post National Chlamydia Screening Programme (NCSP) periods and to determine the prevalence of sexual abuse/assault. The method used was a retrospective case notes audit of children aged <16 years. STIs were found in 20% (n = 264) of children; 10% had genital chlamydia. 157 (59%) of 264 children had an assessment for non-consensual sexual activity; of those, 34% had a history of past or continuing sexual abuse/assault. An uptake of 'full STI screening' and contraceptive use were similar in both pre- and post-NCSP periods. Overall STIs and chlamydia rates were higher during post-NCSP period. In conclusion, NCSP has not yet made any significant impact on sexual health of under-16-year-olds and the prevalence of past or ongoing sexual abuse/assault was high.

Abstract
Acetabular orientation is a crucial part of the planning and performance of hip arthroplasty. Currently, most surgeons use the anterior pelvic plane (APP) to orient themselves when navigating the acetabulum, despite the fact that the anterior superior iliac spine (ASIS) of the unaffected side is not accessible in the lateral position. We have identified another plane, the transverse pelvic plane (TPP), relying on both posterior superior iliac spines and the ASIS of the affected side. In a CT-based study, this plane was found to be as reliable as the APP for the orientation of the cup in both anteversion and inclination. The substantial variation in both measurements between patients is documented, and their relation to the "safe zone" is shown. We recommend consideration of the TPP by surgeons who perform arthroplasty in the lateral position. It may reduce operating time and improve accuracy in computer-assisted arthroplasty.

Abstract
Surgeons need to be able to measure angles and distances in three dimensions in the planning and assessment of knee replacement. Computed tomography (CT) offers the accuracy needed but involves greater radiation exposure to patients than traditional long-leg standing radiographs, which give very little information outside the plane of the image. There is considerable variation in CT radiation doses between research centres, scanning protocols and individual scanners, and ethics committees are rightly demanding more consistency in this area. By refining the CT scanning protocol we have reduced the effective radiation dose received by the patient down to the equivalent of one long-leg standing radiograph. Because of this, it will be more acceptable to obtain the three-dimensional data set produced by CT scanning. Surgeons will be able to document the impact of implant position on outcome with greater precision.

Abstract
The aim of this study was to develop a method for simultaneous 3D visualization of a new type of artificial urethral sphincter (AUS) and adjacent urinary structures. Serial MR tomograms were acquired from seven men after AUS implantation. 3D reconstruction was performed by thresholding original (positive) and inverted (negative) image intensity and by subsequently fusing positive and negative images. Results show that the bladder, cuff and balloons of the AUS of originally high intensity were imaged in 3D by thresholding the positive datasets. The urethrae and corpora cavernosa penis of originally low intensity were displayed in 3D by thresholding the negative datasets. Fusion of the positive and negative datasets allowed simultaneous visualization of the AUS complex and adjacent urinary structures. All the structures of interest were also clearly seen by interactive multiplanar reformatting. Coronal tomographic datasets provided better 3D and reformatted 2D images than sagittal and transverse datasets. This technique offers a simple means for evaluating the complex urethral anatomy and the AUS, and has potential for improved 3D visualization of many other complex morphological and pathological conditions.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Venous access is an essential part of caring for the sick neonate; however, problems such as contamination of fluids with bacteria, endotoxins and particulates have been associated with intravenous infusion therapy. Intravenous in-line filters claim to be an effective strategy for the removal of bacteria, endotoxins and particulates associated with intravenous therapy in adults and are increasingly being recommended for use in neonates. OBJECTIVES To assess whether in-line filters on intravenous lines prevent morbidity and mortality in neonates. SEARCH STRATEGY Searches were made of the electronic databases MEDLINE (from 1966 to September 2005), EMBASE (from 1980 to September 2005), CINAHL (from 1982 to September 2005) and the Cochrane Central Register of Controlled Trials (CENTRAL, The Cochrane Library, Issue 3 2005 ). There was no language restriction. Further searching included cross references, abstracts, conferences, symposia proceedings, expert informants and journal handsearching. SELECTION CRITERIA Randomized or quasi-randomized controlled trials that compared the use of intravenous in-line filters with placebo or nothing in neonates were included in the review. DATA COLLECTION AND ANALYSIS The procedures of the Cochrane Neonatal Review Group (CNRG) were followed throughout. Titles and abstracts identified from the search were checked by the review authors. The full text of all studies of possible relevance were obtained. The review authors independently assessed the trials for their methodological quality and subsequent inclusion in the review. Statistical analysis followed the procedures of the Cochrane Neonatal Review Group. Dichotomous data is expressed as relative risk and 95% confidence intervals, and risk difference and 95% confidence intervals. MAIN RESULTS There were three eligible studies, which recruited a total of 262 neonates. For most of the outcomes for this review, only one study of 88 neonates contributed eligible data. This review found no significant effect of in-line filters in any of the reported outcomes of overall mortality, proven and unproven septicaemia, phlebitis, necrotizing enterocolitis, duration of cannula patency, number of catheters inserted and financial costs. AUTHORS' CONCLUSIONS There are insufficient data to determine whether or not the use of intravenous in-line filters prevent morbidity and mortality in neonates. The wide confidence intervals on outcomes indicate the imprecise estimates of treatment effect due to the small numbers of patients and events.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE To examine school participation in sponsorship, incentive and fundraising initiatives and to describe feedback about potential health implications and possible solutions from key stakeholders in the health and education sectors. METHODS All secondary/area schools and 15% of primary/intermediate schools were randomly selected from six geographical regions of New Zealand. School principals completed a self-report questionnaire. Survey findings were summarised in a discussion document and forwarded to 53 key stakeholders for comment. RESULTS Most schools reported participation in sponsorship, incentive and fundraising initiatives (83% of primary/intermediate and 85% of secondary/area schools). Some partnerships delivered positive health messages to students, but others were linked with products or activities potentially deleterious to health. Examples of the latter included provision of foods high in fat and sugar to students and funding from organisations whose profits were generated from gambling and alcohol sales. Key stakeholder concerns included the undermining of classroom health education and perceptions that schools were endorsing product consumption. Suggestions to address these concerns included increasing co-ordination and awareness, alternative sources of funding, and policy guidelines or legislation. CONCLUSIONS Most schools were involved in some sort of sponsorship, incentive and fundraising initiatives, some of which had the potential to have a negative impact on the health of students. IMPLICATIONS There is an urgent need for co-operation between the health and education sectors to ensure that these funding partnerships do not compromise student health.

Abstract
Platinum nanoclusters modified with cinchonidine have been employed as 'quasi-homogeneous' catalysts for the hydrogenation of ethyl pyruvate and have demonstrated exceptional activities while the ee's of these systems are currently inferior to the traditional Pt/Al2O3 heterogeneous system. For the bulk systems it has been shown that the orientation of the modifier on the metal surface is a critical parameter influencing catalytically induced enantioselectivity. It has been speculated that the lower observed ee's for the nanocluster systems are a result of the modifier assuming an orientation unfavorable for inducing enantioselectivity due to the lack of large numbers of planar metal atoms. Using DRIFTS (diffuse reflectance infra-red Fourier transform spectroscopy) analysis of samples together with geometry optimization and IR modelling we have studied the orientation of cinchonidine on Pt and Fe nanoclusters and additionally the man-made ligand quiphos on Pt nanoclusters. It has been determined that cinchonidine can adsorb on Pt and Fe nanoclusters in both 'flat' and 'tilted' modes, while quiphos can be adsorbed on Pt only via the 'pi-bonded' mode. These studies thus provide an insight into modifier orientation on nanocluster surfaces that can be extended to a wide range of potential modifiers and facilitate a better understanding of the origin of enantioselectivity with these 'quasi-homogeneous' catalyst systems.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Neer 2 fractures of the distal clavicle are notorious for their high rates of non-union and numerous methods of fixation are recommended. We review a simple method of fixation of these fractures with an intramedullary AO/ASIF malleolar screw. METHOD Ten patients with Neer type 2 fractures of the distal clavicle were treated between 1996 and 2002. All had open reduction and internal fixation with an intramedullary 4.5 mm AO/ASIF malleolar screw. In all cases the coraco-clavicular ligaments were not repaired, and the screws were removed once the fractures had united. RESULTS All fractures united at between 6 and 12 weeks. All patients had a good functional result, with an excellent to good Oxford Shoulder score. CONCLUSION This is a simple technique with a universally available implant and good fracture healing. We report no cases of screw breakage or migration and we question the necessity to repair the coraco-clavicular ligaments.

Abstract
Melanoma and skin cancer are largely attributable to over-exposure to solar ultraviolet radiation (UVR). Reports of UVR levels within media weather forecasts appear to be well received by the public and have good potential to communicate the need for appropriate sun protection to a broad audience. This study describes provision of UVR messages by New Zealand newspapers, radio and TV stations over a 4-year period, and examines the impact of an intervention which aimed to address media concerns about the financial costs of accessing UVR information for broadcast. Newspaper and radio presentation of UVR information increased immediately after these costs were removed; however, among radio stations it dropped in subsequent years. Among those media that were presenting UVR, this information was broadcast throughout the summer period and repeated throughout the day. Furthermore, most reports included concomitant, behavioral sun protection messages. At the final assessment (summer 2001/02), 66% of radio stations, both TV channels and 48% of newspapers reported UVR information in summertime weather reports. Efforts to further increase UVR presentation will need to address media concerns about time constraints on weather forecasts and media perceptions of poor audience demand or understanding of some UVR messages.

Abstract
STUDY OBJECTIVE Notifiable diseases are conditions where regular, frequent and timely reporting of individual cases is considered necessary for the prevention and control of the disease. They can be classified into immediate, routine, international, and occupational notifiable diseases. Despite its importance, notification suffers some setbacks, as shown by worldwide studies. This study was carried out from August to November 1999 to assess the knowledge of disease notification among doctors at the University of Benin Teaching Hospital and Central Hospital, Benin City, Edo State, Nigeria. DESIGN A cross-sectional study design was used, and a self-administered questionnaire, which was pretested, was used to collect data. SETTING All doctors from the University of Benin Teaching Hospital and Central Hospital, Benin City, Edo State, Nigeria were included in the study. PARTICIPANTS In total, 134 doctors participated in the study. MAIN RESULT Only 11.9% of doctors had a good knowledge of disease notification. Thirty-one (23.1%) doctors knew where to obtain notification forms, and 32 (23.9%) knew how to complete these forms. CONCLUSION Knowledge of disease notification among doctors in these major institutions is poor. It has therefore been recommended that quarterly seminars should be conducted to update doctors' knowledge and serve as reminders about disease notification.

Abstract
In the pre-operative screening of infants with obstetric brachial palsy (OBP), the results of routine electromyography are often overly optimistic when compared to the peri-operative findings. This prompted us to include investigation of the sensory innervation of these infants using the N20 (the first cortical response to a peripheral stimulation) of the somatosensory evoked potentials (SSEP). Three to seven months after birth, SSEP were recorded at the skull after stimulation of the thumb and middle finger in infants with obstetric rupture of the upper trunk or avulsion of roots C5, C6, or C7, and in whom no clinical improvement of motor function was observed in the biceps brachii and deltoid muscles. In most infants, a normal N20 could be evoked, indicating the existence of peripheral sensory pathways. From the thumb, these sensory pathways would necessarily bypass the upper trunk and dorsal roots of spinal nerves C5 and C6, and from the middle finger bypass the middle trunk and dorsal root C7, before extending into the dorsal column and projecting toward the thalamus and cerebral cortex. These data suggest that in infancy the segmental sensory innervation of the hand is more diverse than is described in most textbooks.
