People with dementia and their carers have a wide range of health and social care needs. People with dementia, carers and health and social care professionals (HSCPs) all have different perspectives on dementia care. Differences among these groups are important for commissioners of services and for front-line HSCPs.
To compare the service recommendations of people with dementia and carers with those of HSCPs, under different budgetary conditions.
A mixed-methods approach, which builds on the Balance of Care method, was used. Nine workshops were held with 41 participants from three groups people with dementia, carers and HSCPs. Participants were asked to make decisions on a set of services for case types of dementia under two scenarios a no budget constraint (NBC) scenario and a budget constraint (BC) scenario.
While each group allocated resources in broadly similar overall proportions, important differences in emphasis emerged (i) people with dementia and carers placed more emphasis on psychosocial supports than HSCPs; (ii) carers put more emphasis on respite opportunities for carers; and (iii) carers identified residential care as the most suitable setting for the person with dementia more frequently than health care professionals.
Our findings suggest that the importance of psychosocial interventions, including counselling and peer support programmes, are currently underestimated by HSCPs. The provision of in-home respite is highly valued by carers. Even with unconstrained resources, some carers do not judge home care to be a viable option for dementia case types with high-level care needs.

Multi-species biofilms have a higher resistance to antimicrobial therapies than mono-species biofilms. PD-1/PD-L1 tumor In addition, multi-species biofilms can cause severe foodborne diseases. To remove multi-species biofilms, controlling the formation process of extracellular polymeric substances (EPS) and quorum sensing (QS) effects is essential. EPS disruption, inhibition of QS, and disinfection have been utilized to remove multi-species biofilms. This review presents information on the formation and novel removal methods for multi-species biofilms.The first synthetic route developed for Podocarflavone A reported from Podocarpus macrophyllus and its analogs in 7 steps. Computational analysis for binding with the pantothenate kinase (3AVO) of Mycobacterium tuberculosis showed their docking score (ds) in the range of -8.9 to -9.3 Kcal/mol. MD simulations delineated the stability of the protein-ligand complexes in the TIP3P model. MMGBSA and MMPBSA values of 8d were -42.46 Kcal/mol and -14.58 Kcal/mol, respectively. Further in-vitro antitubercular screening of compounds 8a, 8d, and 8e against M. tuberculosis H37Ra using XRMA protocol exhibited promising antimycobacterial activity with IC50 values 21.82 µg/mL, 15.55 µg/mL, and 16.56 µg/mL, respectively. Compounds 8a, 8d, and 8e showed antibacterial activity with IC50 values 41.56 µg/mL, 24.72 µg/mL, and 72.45 µg/mL respectively against the Staphylococcus aureus. 8a and 8d showed inhibition with IC50 values 39.6 µg/mL and 27.64 µg/mL, respectively, against Bacillus subtilis. The present study could help in the further development of lead molecules against tuberculosis.HIV-related stigma has been shown to negatively affect the health-related quality of life (HRQoL) in people living with HIV. Women living with HIV (WLWH) suffer greater consequences from stigma on multiple health outcomes when compared to men. The objective of this review was to examine the association between HIV-related stigma and HRQoL in WLWH in developed countries. A systematic search was conducted in three medical databases. The PRISMA guideline was used as a methodical frame of reference, and the STROBE checklist as a quality assessment tool. Eight studies on a total of 2903 WLWH were included. All studies were cross-sectional of design and published between 2011-2019. All studies found a negative and statistically significant association between HIV-related stigma and HRQoL. The association was found to be weak to moderate in strength when examined using correlations statistics. Heterogeneity across the choice of measures and variables examined in the included studies made comparison difficult. Risk of bias was deemed present in majority of studies. Thus, this review reveals a negative association between HIV-related stigma and HRQoL in WLWH in developed countries. The association appears to be influenced by a range of complex factors, such as psychosocial variables and sociodemographic determinants.The phytochemical investigation of the dichloromethane/methanol (11) extract of the stem bark of Scyphocephalium ochocoa, led to the isolation of one new dibenzofuran derivative, named scyphocephalione A (1), along with three other compounds, including epicatechin (2), gentisic acid (3) and myo-inositol (4). The structures of all the compounds were established with help of spectroscopic data including IR, UV, MS, 1 D- and 2 D-NMR, as well as by comparison with previously reported data in literature, and chemical modification. All the compounds were obtained from the genus Scyphocephalium for the first time. The anti-inflammatory activity (using chemiluminescence technique) of the crude extract and compound 1, together with NO inhibition (using ELISA), TNF-α (using ELISA) and MCF-7 cells cytotoxicity effects (using MTT assay) of compound 1 were assessed. From the results obtained, compound 1 could be considered as a promising chemotherapeutic agent for the treatment of inflammatory diseases.This response article addresses the questions raised in "How Gentle Must Violence Against Women be in Order to not be Violent? Rethinking the Word 'Violence; in Obstetric Settings" and concludes that naming violence is critical for describing people's experiences of such violence and for addressing the structures and contexts that create and fuel such violence, not for judgment but for accountability and change. Impact, outcome, and, at times, processes-rather than intention-should underpin applications of the term violence; naming violence does not disempower women, but rather naming structural, systemic, and institutional violence demands acknowledgment, accountability, and responsibility for its effects on both patients and clinicians; and, finally, while the unintended consequences of using such a term may present challenges, they do not outweigh the importance of naming structural violence in health-related systems to identify practices and processes that discriminate, disempower, harm, and oppress.
