OBJECTIVES/GOALS: Studies show a decrease in injury-related emergency department (ED) visitsduring COVID.There is a gap in the literature regarding the effect of the pandemic on breast injury-related ED visits. We aim to compare these visits pre- and post-COVID, and whether this subset reflects the same trends seen in overall injury-related ED visits. METHODS/STUDY POPULATION: A retrospective study of breast injuries was conducted between 2018 and 2022, using the National Electronic Injury Surveillance System. Patients were categorized into pre-COVID and post-COVID groups, for visits occurring before and after January 20, 2020. A total of 1077 breast injuries were stratified into pre-COVID (n = 444) and post-COVID (n = 633) groups. Clinical data on patient demographics, diagnosis, disposition, location, and alcohol use were collected. RESULTS/ANTICIPATED RESULTS: Mean age was significantly different: pre-COVID mean age was 37.29; post-COVID’s was 40.40 (p = 0.0338). >90% of patients were female (p = 0.4066). White patients accounted for 36.0% of pre-COVID visits and 47.2% of post-COVID; BIPOC patients were 32.88% and 31.75% respectively. There was significant difference between race and COVID groups (p = 0.0013). No significant differences were found when considering all diagnoses (p = 0.3841) or the top three diagnoses (other, contusions/abrasions, and burns/scald) (p = 0.6176). Incident location showed a weak evidence of association (α = 0.1), when including unrecorded data (p = 0.1365) and removing those entries (p = 0.0832). Alcohol use did not reveal a significant association (p = 0.2110). DISCUSSION/SIGNIFICANCE: There are more breast injuries reported post-COVID. No significant difference was identified in the types of injuries diagnosed, the location these injuries took place, and how these injuries were treated. However, the demographics (age, race) of patients seeking care were significantly different.

Aim:
To explore the experiences of musculoskeletal (MSk) physiotherapy independent prescribing in primary care from the perspectives of physiotherapists and General Practitioners (GPs) and identify the implications these have for contemporary physiotherapy practice in primary care.
Background:Legislative change in the United Kingdom (UK) in 2013 enabled physiotherapists holding a postgraduate non-medicalprescribing qualification to independently prescribe certain drugs that assist in patient management. Independent prescribing by physiotherapists is a relatively contemporary development in role change and purpose, occurring alongside the development of physiotherapy first contact practitioner (FCP) roles in primary care.
Methods:A critical realist approach was used, with qualitative data collected via 15 semi-structured interviews with physiotherapists and GPs in primary care. Thematic analysis was applied.
Participants:Fifteen participants were interviewed (13 physiotherapists, 2 GPs). Of the 13 physiotherapists, 8 were physiotherapy independent prescribers, 3 were MSk service leads, and 3 were physiotherapy consultants. Participants worked across 15 sites and 12 organisations.
Findings:Whilst physiotherapists were empowered by their independent prescribing qualification, they were frustrated by current UK Controlled Drugs legislation. Physiotherapists reported vulnerability, isolation, and risk as potential challenges to independent prescribing, but noted clinical experience and ‘patient mileage’ as vital to mitigate these. Participants identified the need to establish prescribing impact, particularly around difficult to measure aspects such as more holistic conversations and enhanced practice directly attributed to prescribing knowledge. GPs were supportive of physiotherapists prescribing.
Conclusions:Establishment of physiotherapy independent prescribing value and impact is required to evaluate the role of, and requirement for, physiotherapy independent prescribers within primary care physiotherapy FCP roles. Additionally, there is a need for a review of physiotherapy prescribing permitted formulary, and development of support mechanisms for physiotherapists at individual and system levels to build prescribing self-efficacy and autonomy, and to advance and sustain physiotherapy independent prescribing in primary care.

Introduction:
Although the involvement of citizen scientists in research can contribute to scientific benefits, much remains unknown about participants’ lived experiences in research. Thus, the purpose of this study was to explore how citizen scientists describe their role in, motivation for, and communication with researchers.
Methods:In-depth interviews (N = 9) were conducted with citizen scientists at a translational health research center.
Results:Key results include that citizen scientists were invested in learning researchers’ discipline-specific language and viewed small group sizes as conducive to their active participation.
Conclusions:Programs can apply these findings in an effort to improve citizen scientists’ long-term engagement in research.

Background
Restriction of food intake is a central feature of anorexia nervosa (AN) and other eating disorders, yet also occurs in the absence of psychopathology. The neural mechanisms of restrictive eating in health and disease are unclear.
MethodsThis study examined behavioral and neural mechanisms associated with restrictive eating among individuals with and without eating disorders. Dietary restriction was examined in four groups of women (n = 110): healthy controls, dieting healthy controls, patients with subthreshold (non-low weight) AN, and patients with AN. A Food Choice Task was administered during fMRI scanning to examine neural activation associated with food choices, and a laboratory meal was conducted.
ResultsBehavioral findings distinguished between healthy and ill participants. Healthy individuals, both dieting and non-dieting, chose significantly more high-fat foods than patients with AN or subthreshold AN. Among healthy individuals, choice was primarily influenced by tastiness, whereas, among both patient groups, healthiness played a larger role. Dorsal striatal activation associated with choice was most pronounced among individuals with AN and was significantly associated with selecting fewer high-fat choices in the task and lower caloric intake in the meal the following day.
ConclusionsA continuous spectrum of behavior was suggested by the increasing amount of weight loss across groups. Yet, data from this Food Choice Task with fMRI suggest there is a behavioral distinction between illness and health, and that the neural mechanisms underlying food choice in AN are distinct. These behavioral and neural mechanisms of restrictive eating may be useful targets for treatment development.

OBJECTIVES/SPECIFIC AIMS: Our primary objective is to determine whether the bacteria exerts its effect intra- or extra-cellularly. We have genomic and microscopy preliminary evidence indicating that the bacteria is capable of invading endometrial cells. Our secondary objective is to identify what type of impact the bacteria have on the host cells and whether they are capable of transforming the host cells from a benign into a malignant phenotype. We are currently testing a putative mechanism by which the bacteria may cause the overexpression of the hypoxia inducible factor (HIF), a hallmark of endometrial cancer. METHODS/STUDY POPULATION: We are utilizing our custom built optofluidics platform (microfluidics platform incorporated into an advanced microscope with optical laser tweezers) to isolate single cells from the endometrial tissues of 150 patients with and without endometrial cancer. We are utilizing single cell whole genome amplification followed by qPCR to identify if the bacteria is present intracellularly. We are coupling this procedure with standard microbiological invasion assays with endometrial cell line cultures and P.somerae. We are also utilizing our optofluidics platform to perform single cell transcriptomic amplification, followed by sequencing of cells invaded or in the presence of the bacteria to determine the impact in the transcriptome of the host cell. We are coupling this with western blots of factors hypothesized to be impacted by the bacteria in the overexpression of HIF. RESULTS/ANTICIPATED RESULTS: Based on our preliminary data we anticipate to find evidence that P.somerae is invading the host cells, in particular the cells in tumor tissues. We also expect to find that the intracellular presence of the bacteria is causing the overexpression of the HIF pathway, hence resulting in a cancerous phenotype. DISCUSSION/SIGNIFICANCE OF IMPACT: Our long-term goal is to develop primary prevention strategies that will reduce endometrial cancer incidence rates. A confirmation of our hypothesis could suggest that it is sufficient for endometrial cancer prevention efforts to eliminate P.somerae, in line with gastric and cervical cancer efforts. It could also mean that targeting P.somerae in cancer treatment is necessary to contain the disease and prevent recurrence.

Background:
Excessive exercise has long been observed to be a problematic behavior of many patients with anorexia nervosa (AN). However, many questions remain as to the exact role exercise plays in this disorder. In particular, it has been suggested that exercise holds “addictive” properties in persons with AN, but that remains to be demonstrated.
Objective:The aim of this study was to adapt and apply a scale used in addictions research to determine whether symptoms of “dependence” to exercise could be measured in a group of women with AN.
Results:Forty-eight percent of individuals assessed endorsed symptoms consistent with exercise dependence in the previous month. The number of criteria met for exercise dependence was directly correlated with a clinical measure of anxiety.
Conclusion:Results support further investigation into addictive properties for exercise in individuals with AN and its relationship to anxiety.

Summary
Emily O. was a farmer in western Kenya, able to feed her four children, keep them in school, and eke out a comfortable existence. This ended abruptly when her husband died. Like millions of other women in sub-Saharan Africa, Emily lost literally everything when she became a widow. Her in-laws and community felt that, as a woman, she had no right to own or inherit property.
Emily’s in-laws invaded her simple home within days of her husband’s death, stripped it bare, and even took her clothing. Even worse, they took her farm equipment and livestock. Emily hoped to at least stay in her home. But her in-laws insisted that to do so, she go through the clan’s customary “cleansing” ritual—having sex with a social outcast—to rid her of her dead husband’s spirit. They paid a herdsman the equivalent of US$6 to have sex with Emily, against her will and without a condom. She recalled, “I tried to refuse, but my in-laws said I must be cleansed or they’d beat me and chase me out of my home. They said they had bought me [with the dowry], and therefore I had no voice in that home.” The in-laws eventually forced Emily out of her home anyway. She begged an elder and the village chief for help, but they asked for bribes that she could not pay. Emily and her children were homeless until someone offered her a small, leaky shack. Her children dropped out of school. When Human Rights Watch interviewed Emily, her young sons were working as cowherds, and her daughters were doing domestic work in Nairobi, Kenya’s bustling capital. Emily told us she had no hope of retrieving her land and property.
Emily’s story illustrates a sad truth: African women’s rights to own, inherit, manage, and dispose of property are under constant threat from customs, laws, and individuals¾including government officials¾who believe that women cannot be trusted with or do not deserve property. On much of the African continent, women constitute 70-90 percent of the agricultural labor force, yet according to the International Development Research Center, own only about 1 percent of land.

The nature and character of the part-time workforce has been at the forefront of recent controversies about women's employment. Drawing on new data on the characteristics, attitudes and preferences of over one thousand female part-time employees, this study highlights important diversities amongst the part-time workforce. The results show that the women in the sample had gravitated to part-time work from a range of different employment backgrounds, and for a variety of motivations. While the majority of the women workers were content with their current part-time work arrangements, a significant minority wished to change their employment status to full-time work and a substantial number of part-time women workers wanted to return to full-time work in the future. The research examines the characteristics of such women, and argues that the stereotyping of the part-time workforce as universally ‘home-centred’ or committed to the ‘marriage career’ is misplaced.
