Background
UK clinical guidelines recommend treatment of attention-deficit hyperactivity disorder (ADHD) in adults by suitably qualified clinical teams. However, young people with ADHD attempting the transition from children's to adults’ services experience considerable difficulties in accessing care.
AimsTo map the mental health services in the UK for adults who have ADHD and compare the reports of key stakeholders (people with ADHD and their carers, health workers, service commissioners).
MethodA survey about the existence and extent of service provision for adults with ADHD was distributed online and via national organisations (e.g. Royal College of Psychiatrists, the ADHD Foundation). Freedom of information requests were sent to commissioners. Descriptive analysis was used to compare reports from the different stakeholders.
ResultsA total of 294 unique services were identified by 2686 respondents. Of these, 44 (15%) were dedicated adult ADHD services and 99 (34%) were generic adult mental health services. Only 12 dedicated services (27%) provided the full range of treatments recommended by the National Institute for Health and Care Excellence. Only half of the dedicated services (55%) and a minority of other services (7%) were reported by all stakeholder groups (P < 0.001, Fisher's exact test).
ConclusionsThere is geographical variation in the provision of NHS services for adults with ADHD across the UK, as well as limited availability of treatments in the available services. Differences between stakeholder reports raise questions about equitable access. With increasing numbers of young people with ADHD graduating from children's services, developing evidence-based accessible models of care for adults with ADHD remains an urgent policy and commissioning priority.

The incident command system (ICS) provides a common structure to control and coordinate an emergency response, regardless of scale or predicted impact. The lessons learned from the application of an ICS for large infectious disease outbreaks are documented. However, there is scant evidence on the application of an ICS to manage a local multiagency response to a disease cluster with environmental health risks. The Sydney Local Health District Public Health Unit (PHU) in New South Wales, Australia, was notified of 5 cases of Legionnaires’ disease during 2 weeks in May 2016. This unusual incident triggered a multiagency investigation involving an ICS with staff from the PHU, 3 local councils, and the state health department to help prevent any further public health risk. The early and judicious use of ICS enabled a timely and effective response by supporting clear communication lines between the incident controller and field staff. The field team was key in preventing any ongoing public health risk through inspection, sampling, testing, and management of water systems identified to be at-risk for transmission of legionella. Good working relationships between partner agencies and trust in the technical proficiency of environmental health staff aided in the effective management of the response.

Large Crabgrass (Digitaria sanguinalis (L.) Scop.) and barnyardgrass (Echinochloa crusgalli (L.) Beauv.) plants were grown from seedlings to maturity under five light qualities of equal energy levels. For crabgrass, both fresh and dry weight yields of plant tops grown under red light and under cool white light were significantly greater than those under green, yellow, or blue light. Length of stem followed this same order. Effects of light quality on reproduction were not as consistent; green and blue light caused the largest numbers of seed heads to form, while yellow light delayed flowering and resulted in the least number and weight of seed heads. Somewhat similar responses to light were found with barnyardgrass plants, except that yields under yellow light were close to those under red light for this species. Blue light caused smallest plants in both kinds of weeds.

The common purslane plant (Portulaca oleracea L.) flowered and produced seeds throughout the growing season. Seeds were mature about 15 days after flowering. Increased light intensity and temperature stimulated growth. In general greater yields were obtained under cool white light, followed by yields under green, blue, red, and yellow light, in that order. With high temperature during the light period and low temperature during the dark period, best growth occurred under green light.

Summary
Abstract:
Human movement constitutes a fundamental part of the archaeological process, and of any interpretation of a site's usage; yet there has to date been little or no consideration of how movement observed (in contemporary situations) and inferred (in archaeological reconstruction) can be documented. This paper reports on the Motion in Place Platform project, which seeks to use motion capture hardware and data to test human responses to Virtual Reality (VR) environments and their real-world equivalents using round houses of the Southern British Iron Age which have been both modelled in 3D and reconstructed in the present day as a case study. This allows us to frame questions about the assumptions which are implicitly hardwired into VR presentations of archaeology and cultural heritage in new ways. In the future, this will lead to new insights into how VR models can be constructed, used and transmitted.
Key Words: Motion Capture Data, Reconstruction, Virtual Reality, Experimental Archaeology
Introduction
Experimental archaeology is often cited as an important asset in the study of human interaction with material culture, especially in remote periods of history where there are few other sources of data on the human interventions which constitute the archaeological record. This has found many expressions in the discourse of archaeological theory, including the so-called chaîne opératoire, or ‘operational sequence’ theory (see e.g. Bar-Yosef and Van Peer 2009). However, due to an understandable desire to adhere to empirical evidence, means of inferring the human movement behind those interventions are rarely considered in the computational reconstruction of archaeological environments. The most obvious reason for this is that buildings, features and artefacts can be understood and reconstructed (whether digitally or not) from empirical archaeological remains, whereas there is little or no direct evidence for how people might have looked and moved through the spaces they created. Approaches which seek to go beyond this are methodologically fraught, resulting in a limitation of the scope of 3D reconstruction, both as a tool for archaeological research and as means of presenting cultural heritage to the public. The impact on the user's experience of those reconstructions is also limited. In a review of 3D visualization in archaeology, Gillings states: ‘[I]t is worth noting that one of the most striking things about archaeological Virtualmodels is the lack of people in them.

Muscle tissue samples were collected from Antarctic toothfish (Dissostichus mawsoni Norman) and Patagonian toothfish (D. eleginoides Smitt) in 1998 and from D. mawsoni and three of its prey species - Whitson's grenadier (Macrourus whitsoni (Regan)), ice fish (Chionobathyscus dewitti Andriashev & Neyelov), and blue antimora (Antimora rostrata (Günther)) - in 2006 to determine their mercury. Mercury levels were highly variable both within and between the five species studied but were positively correlated with fish length in four of the species. Once the factors length and year had been accounted for, the mercury levels in D. eleginoides were more than four times greater than in D. mawsoni. The low levels of mercury in D. mawsoni relative to its prey species and the four-fold difference in mercury concentrations between it and D. eleginoides were unexpected. Reasons for these different levels of bioaccumulation were explored including differences in diet, growth and longevity, and location. Differences in bioaccumulation between the two toothfish species could be explained partly through differences in their geographic distribution and differences in trophic position. However, the low levels of mercury in D. mawsoni relative to its prey species can only be explained by a lower rate of mercury assimilation and/or a higher rate of mercury elimination by D. mawsoni.

Demersal fishes were sampled using a large fish trawl during two surveys carried out in February and March 2004 and 2008 in the Ross Sea, and around seamounts and islands just to the north at 66°S. The distribution and abundance of 65 species collected in these surveys were examined to determine if demersal fish communities varied throughout the area, and what environmental factors might influence this. Species accumulation with sample frequency did not reach an asymptote, but the rate of new species was low suggesting data were adequate for describing the main components of the communities. Three broad assemblages were identified, in the southern Ross Sea (south of 74°S), central–northern Ross Sea (between latitudes 71°–74°S), and the seamounts further north (65°–68°S) where some species more typical of sub-Antarctic latitudes were observed. Multivariate analyses indicated that environmental factors of seafloor rugosity (roughness), temperature, depth, and current speed were the main variables determining patterns in demersal fish communities.

Background
In 1999 the UK received 4346 refugees from Kosovo.
AimsTo determine the prevalence of mental health problems in this group.
MethodA sample of 842 adults was surveyed. All were asked to complete self-report questionnaires (translated into Kosovan Albanian). A subset of 120 participants were later interviewed in Albanian using the Clinician Administered PTSD (post-traumatic stress disorder) Scale and a depression interview.
ResultsThe study yielded estimates of prevalence of PTSD and depression. Self-report measures appear to overestimate the prevalence of these disorders. Just under half of the group surveyed had a diagnosis of PTSD and less than one-fifth had a major depressive disorder.
ConclusionsThese results may be taken as a sign of the resilience of many who survived this conflict but they also imply that there is still a substantial need for good health and social care in a significant proportion. Psychosocial interventions are likely to be an important part of the treatment programme.
Effects of 2,4-D on Plant Metabolism as Modified by Light Quality

Results were based on plant response with light levels in energy units, in accord with use of the spectrum by plants. Dry weight yields of control plants, and reductions of yields by 2,4-dichlorophenoxyacetic acid (2,4-D) below those of control plants were greatest in red light, followed by pink, yellow, white, green, and blue light, in that order. Sucrose mixed with 2,4-D or applied alone to plants altered the combined light-herbicide effect but little. Differences in concentration of 2,4-D affected respiration more than photosynthesis, as measured by CO2 exchange under different light qualities. In spectral effects, pink light caused greatest reduction of photosynthesis by 2,4-D at 500 ppm, while greatest promotion of respiration occurred under red light with 2,4-D at 1000 ppm.
Relation of Light Quality to Effects of 2,4–D on Chlorophyll and CO2 Exchange

Many of the pathways by which weedkillers, such as 2,4–dichlorophenoxyacetic acid (2,4–D), affect plants are still obscure. Frequently the adverse effect seems to involve an alteration of metabolism, but the exact nature of this is sometimes not clear. Photosynthesis and respiration under different conditions may be either stimulated or inhibited. Other results, in which a decolorization of tissue with increasing amounts of 2,4–D was observed, suggest that the herbicide either interferes with the formation of chlorophyll, or causes increased destruction.

The purpose of this study was to find more information on how and why certain herbicides act as they do on plants. The need for this kind of basic fact finding is often emphasized (1, 5, 6, 8). One approach to this problem is to study the effects of various environmental factors on herbicide behavior with plants. An effective way is to hold certain factors constant and alter the amounts or qualities of one or more other factors. Previous work with various colored fluorescent lights (4, 7) had shown marked differences in plant response to various portions of the visible light spectrum. Using essentially the same technique, this study was made of the influence of light quality in modifying the herbicidal effect of 2,4–dichlorophenoxyacetic acid (hereafter called 2,4–D) as various salts and esters. The combined herbicide–light effect was measured principally by dry weight variations from those of normal (control) plants.
