OBJECTIVES/GOALS: Children with Down syndrome are at increased risk of respiratory diseases including asthma. Prenatal antibiotic exposure has been shown to be associated with the development of childhood asthma. We aim to estimate the association between prenatal antibiotic exposure and childhood asthma among children with Down syndrome. METHODS/STUDY POPULATION: We conducted a retrospective cohort study of mother-child dyads of children with Down syndrome who were born 1995-2013. Both children and mothers were continuously enrolled in the Tennessee Medicaid Program (TennCare). Prenatal antibiotic exposure was measured using mother’s prescription fill records. Childhood asthma was defined between age 4.5-6 years by asthma-related healthcare encounters and asthma-specific medication fills. We assessed the association between prenatal antibiotic exposure and childhood asthma among children with Down syndrome using modified Poisson regression adjusting for maternal age, race, residence, education, marital status, smoking during pregnancy, maternal asthma status, delivery method, number of siblings, and children’s sex. RESULTS/ANTICIPATED RESULTS: Among 346 mother-child dyads of children with Down syndrome, 273 (78.9%) children were exposed prenatally to antibiotics and 104 (30.0%) had asthma by age 4.5-6 years. Among those who were exposed to at least one course, the median antibiotic course equaled 2 (interquartile range: 1-4). Prenatal antibiotic exposure was associated with a 20% increase in risk of childhood asthma in the unadjusted analysis (risk ratio [RR] 1.20, 95% confidence interval [CI] 0.78, 1.83) and a 26% increase in risk after adjustment (adjusted RR 1.26, 95% CI 0.79, 2.01). DISCUSSION/SIGNIFICANCE: In our study population, the majority of children with Down syndrome were exposed to antibiotics prenatally and the prevalence of asthma was high. Prenatal antibiotic exposure was associated with an increased risk of childhood asthma among children with Down syndrome; however, this increase was not statistically significant.

Objective:
To characterize the epidemiology of methicillin-resistant Staphylococcus aureus (MRSA), vancomycin-resistant enterococci (VRE), and carbapenemase-producing Enterobacterales (CPE) co-colonization and to compare risk factors between healthcare facility types.
Design, setting, and participants:We conducted a 3-year cross-sectional study among patients admitted to an acute-care hospital (ACH) and its 6 closely affiliated intermediate- and long-term care facilities (ILTCFs) in Singapore in June and July of 2014–2016.
Methods:Specimens were concurrently collected from nares, axillae, and groins for MRSA detection, and from rectum or stool for VRE and CPE detection. Co-colonization was defined as having >1 positive culture of MRSA/VRE/CPE. Multinomial logistic regression was performed to determine predictors of co-colonization.
Results:Of 5,456 patients recruited, 176 (3.2%) were co-colonized, with higher prevalence among patients in ITCFs (53 of 1,255, 4.2%) and the ACH (120 of 3,044, 3.9%) than LTCFs (3 of 1,157, 0.3%). MRSA/VRE was the most common type of co-colonization (162 of 5,456, 3.0%). Independent risk factors for co-colonization included male sex (odds ratio [OR], 1.96; 95% confidence interval [CI], 1.37–2.80), prior antibiotic therapy of 1–3 days (OR, 10.39; 95% CI, 2.08–51.96), 4–7 days (OR, 4.89; 95% CI, 1.01–23.68), >7 days (OR, 11.72; 95% CI, 2.81–48.85), and having an open wound (OR, 2.34; 95% CI, 1.66–3.29). Additionally, we detected the synergistic interaction of length of stay >14 days and prior multidrug-resistant organism (MDRO) carriage on co-colonization. Having an emergency surgery was a significant predictor of co-colonization in ACH patients, and we detected a dose–response association between duration of antibiotic therapy and co-colonization in ILTCF patients.
Conclusions:We observed common and differential risk factors for MDRO co-colonization across healthcare settings. This study has identified at-risk groups that merit intensive interventions, particularly patients with prior MDRO carriage and longer length of stay.

Summary
The economic, political, strategic and cultural dynamism in Southeast Asia has gained added relevance in recent years with the spectacular rise of giant economies in East and South Asia. This has drawn greater attention to the region and to the enhanced role it now plays in international relations and global economics.
The sustained effort made by Southeast Asian nations since 1967 towards a peaceful and gradual integration of their economies has had indubitable success, and perhaps as a consequence of this, most of these countries are undergoing deep political and social changes domestically and are constructing innovative solutions to meet new international challenges. Big Power tensions continue to be played out in the neighbourhood despite the tradition of neutrality exercised by the Association of Southeast Asian Nations (ASEAN).
The Trends in Southeast Asia series acts as a platform for serious analyses by selected authors who are experts in their fields. It is aimed at encouraging policymakers and scholars to contemplate the diversity and dynamism of this exciting region.

Summary
INTRODUCTION
China's Belt and Road Initiative (BRI) is expected to be the largest infrastructure development scheme of the twenty-first century. It involves over eighty countries, with overall investments estimated to be between US$1 trillion to US$8.5 trillion.
President Xi Jinping launched the BRI in 2013, describing the initiative as an exercise in “economic cooperation” with a focus on connectivityand trade. The primary goals are to create policy coordination between countries, increase cultural exchange, promote financial integration and cooperation, facilitate international trade, and increase connectivity through infrastructure development.
While the goal of improving the prospects of developing nations is laudable, scholars across the world have raised concerns around the potential environmental and social impacts of the BRI. Of the five goals, perhaps the most visible and worrying is infrastructure development, notably via six terrestrial infrastructure corridors, a marine economic route and a recently announced polar BRI. These routes are expected to connect more than half of the world's population. Infrastructure development will include mega projects to overcome geographic barriers to growth such as those seen in ASEAN members states.
Southeast Asia, with a population of 320 million, which is expected to grow to 526 million by 2050, represents huge opportunities for trade and is a focus of BRI investment. The economic effects of BRI investments could be transformational and could smooth out income inequalities within ASEAN where gross domestic product per capita varies from as little as US$3,645 in Cambodia to US$85,535 in Singapore.
The direct and secondary impacts associated with major infrastructure corridors have been identified as posing threats to biodiversity in an already ecologically vulnerable region. Infrastructure development could negatively affect the atmosphere, hydrosphere, geosphere, and biosphere. Southeast Asia is home to four out of thirty-four of the planet's biodiversity hotspots and to the Coral Triangle, also known as the Amazon of the ocean, which hosts 600 reef-building coral species.
In this review we provide a synoptic overview of the potential environmental impacts in the region. We start with an inventory of BRI projects in Southeast Asia, and then we describe the potential negative impacts of BRI from an environmental perspective.

Reflection is a way of evaluating best practice and challenging existing norms, while at the same time, considering one’s personal values and assumptions in our personal and professional lives. However, many health practitioners may lack the skills to do this effectively. Through participation in a series of three workshops, practitioners in the Radiation Medicine Program at Princess Margaret Hospital have learned and acquired new skills to encourage reflection and reflective practice in themselves, their colleagues as well as with their students. A pre- and post-course survey was used to ascertain their level of knowledge of reflection and reflective practice. An additional survey at 3 months assessed the frequency of use and ongoing comfort level with reflective practice. Results of the evaluation indicate that the participants’ knowledge of reflective practice has improved their understanding of reflection in clincal practice. They recognize the importance of reflection and anticipate increasing their use of reflection in/on practice. As well, participants have been able to sustain the positive momentum 3 months after the course was delivered.
