Shifting Child Protection Assessments From a Deficit Focus to Assessments Informed by Strengths and Protective Factors: Translating Research Knowledge to Practice

Australian Journal of Social Issues, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Child protection systems play a critical role in preventing and responding to child maltreatment, yet practices are often predominantly deficit focused. This paper presents a rapid literature review on the strengths, protective factors, and cultural considerations to inform child protection assessment.

Point-of-care testing for procalcitonin in identifying bacterial infections in young infants: a diagnostic accuracy study

BMC Pediatrics, 2018
Background The primary objective of this study was to report on the diagnostic accuracy of point-of-care testing (POCT) for procalcitonin (PCT) in identifying invasive bacterial infections in young infants. Invasive bacterial infection was defined as the

‘Shelter is a Dignity’: Rental Racism, Stress and Housing (In)justice

Australian Journal of Social Issues, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Australia's private rental sector is in crisis, and culturally and racially minoritised renters face compounded harms through both covert and everyday direct forms of rental racism. Drawing on five community‐based focus groups in Melbourne (n = 37), the paper explores how racism manifests across the rental pathway and how it structures the ...

Pediatric Human Olfactory Epithelium Mirrors Adult Structure and Function in a Human Olfactory Organoid Model

International Forum of Allergy &Rhinology, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Objective This study investigated the developmental differences in structure, gene expression, and function of human olfactory epithelium (OE) using pediatric and adult specimens and human olfactory organoids. Background Olfactory dysfunction (OD) is characterized by loss or alterations in the sense of smell and has an age‐related increase in ...

Effect of Zinc Supplementation on Growth of Low Birth Weight Infants Aged 1–6 Mo in Ardabil, Iran [PDF]

Objective To assess the effect of zinc supplementation on growth of low birth weight (LBW) infants aged 1–6 mo. Methods LBW infants were enrolled at birth and randomly assigned to receive 5 mg elemental Zn per day (n=45) or placebo (n=45) until 6 mo of ...

A critical reappraisal of the carotid sinus and carotid bulb: Distinguishing neurohistological function from vascular geometry

The Anatomical Record, EarlyView.
This review redefines the carotid bulb (CB) as a variable geometric dilation shaped by hemodynamics and the carotid sinus (CS) as a conserved neurohistological baroreceptor field. Distinguishing these entities clarifies a century of anatomical confusion and links geometry, neurohistology, and clinical interpretation within a unified framework ...

Cortical bone distribution in the human mandibular symphysis: Ontogenic and morphometric approaches in archeological context

The Anatomical Record, EarlyView.
Abstract The human mandibular symphysis concentrates multiaxial loads during function and remodels throughout growth, but the precise mechanisms underlying cortical bone shape during growth remain relatively unexplored. Approaches based solely on thickness or external cortical contours provide only partial insights and do not capture the functional ...

Integrating whole‐bone and regional analyses to understand human scapular growth

The Anatomical Record, EarlyView.
Abstract This study investigates ontogenetic changes in human scapular morphology using three‐dimensional geometric morphometrics with whole‐bone and region‐specific analyses. The aim is to evaluate whether the scapula follows a regular developmental pattern and whether its functionally distinct components, the scapular spine (SS) and glenoid fossa ...

Pelvic morphology and body size in relation to the preauricular sulcus: Evidence from medieval to modern Iberia

The Anatomical Record, EarlyView.
Abstract The preauricular sulcus has long been debated as a pelvic feature variably attributed to obstetric stress, ligamentous traction, and broader biomechanical processes. To clarify its determinants, we analyzed 409 adult individuals from three archeological and one early modern skeletal collection from the Iberian Peninsula, integrating graded ...
