- A systematic and contextualized assessment of the interactions between the Sustainable Development Goals and health in the Democratic Republic of Congo is currently lacking. This study aimed to characterize and classify the linkages between the Sustainable Development Goals in the DRC with a focus on health and well-being. In this semi-qualitative participatory study, 35 experts assessed 240 interactions between 16 of the 17 SDGs during a two-day workshop in Kinshasa, Democratic Republic of the Congo, using a scale from +3 (strongly promoting) to −3 (strongly restricting). SDG 16 (Peace, justice, and strong institutions) had the strongest promoting influence on other goals and was identified as a key priority for the DRC to attain the SDGs. Progress on SDG 3 (good health and well-being) was perceived as promoting progress on most SDGs, and through second-order interactions, a positive feedback loop was identified. Furthermore, progress on the other SDGs was deemed to promote progress on SDG 3, with SDG 16 having the greatest positive potential when second-order interactions were taken into account. Our results show the importance of recognizing synergies and trade-offs concerning the interactions between health and other SDGs and that it is imperative to set up structures bringing together different sectors to accelerate work towards achieving the 2030 Agenda.

Peripheral cell loss related to calcium binding protein immunocytochemistry in the dorsal cochlear nucleus in CBA/CaJ mice during aging

- The influence of cochlear hair cell and spiral ganglia neuron loss on calcium binding protein immunoreactivity (calretinin, parvalbumin and calbindin) in the dorsal and posteroventral cochlear nuclei (DCN and PVCN) in CBA/CaJ (CBA) mice during aging (1–39 months) was determined. Since calcium binding proteins have buffering properties against calcium overload, they may have a protective role during aging. It is shown that the percentage of calretinin- and parvalbumin-immunopositive neurons in the DCN showed a statistically significant positive correlation with inner hair cell loss, outer hair cell loss, and spiral ganglion cell loss. A correlation was also found between aging and the auditory periphery, and calcium binding proteins in the DCN. These findings imply that the pathophysiological state of the auditory periphery may influence the neuronal homeostasis in the dorsal cochlear nucleus.

Governing health data across changing contexts : A focus group study of citizen’s views in England, Iceland, and Sweden

Tidskriftsartikel (refereegranskat)abstract
- BackgroundThe governance structures associated with health data are evolving in response to advances in digital technologies that enable new ways of capturing, using, and sharing different types of data. Increasingly, health data moves between different contexts such as from healthcare to research, or to commerce and marketing. Crossing these contextual boundaries has the potential to violate societal expectations about the appropriate use of health data and diminish public trust. Understanding citizens’ views on the acceptability of and preferences for data use in different contexts is essential for developing information governance policies in these new contexts.MethodsFocus group design presenting data sharing scenarios in England, Iceland, and Sweden.ResultsSeventy-one participants were recruited. Participants supported the need for data to help understand the observable world, improve medical research, the quality of public services, and to benefit society. However, participants consistently identified the lack of information, transparency and control as barriers to trusting organisations to use data in a way that they considered appropriate. There was considerable support for fair and transparent data sharing practices where all parties benefitted.ConclusionData governance policy should involve all stakeholders’ perspectives on an ongoing basis, to inform and implement changes to health data sharing practices that accord with stakeholder views. The Findings showed that (1) data should be used for ethical purposes even when there was commercial interest; (2) data subjects and/or public institutions that provide and share data should also receive benefits from the sharing of data; (3) third parties use of data requires greater transparency and accountability than currently exists, (4) there should be greater information provided to empower data subjects.

Whistler mode waves atmagnetotail dipolarization fronts
- 2014

Tidskriftsartikel (refereegranskat)abstract
- We report the statistics of whistler mode waves observed in relation to dipolarization fronts (DFs) in Earth's magnetotail using data from the four Cluster spacecraft spanning a period of 9 years, 2001-2009. We show that whistler mode waves are common in a vicinity of DFs: between 30 and 60% of all DFs are associated with whistlers. Whistlers are about 7 times more likely to be observed near a DF than at any random location in the magnetotail. Therefore, whistlers are a characteristic signature of DFs. We find that whistlers are most often detected in the flux pileup region (FPR) following the DF, close to the center of the current sheet (B-x approximate to 0) and in association with anisotropic electron distributions (T>T-vertical bar). This suggests that we typically observe emissions in the source region where they are generated by the anisotropic electrons produced by the betatron process inside the FPR.
