Background
Project ECHO is a virtual, case-based capacity-building education program for healthcare providers. It was developed in New Mexico, USA but, due to its effectiveness, the model has now spread to 40 countries around the globe. Baycrest, the Canadian Coalition for Seniors’ Mental Health and the Canadian Academy of Geriatric Psychiatry collaborated to launch a national ECHO for mental health and aging. This partnership, coordinated by a cross-Canadian Steering Group, allows for broad reach, including registration of learning partners from almost all Canadian provinces and territories. The program was funded by the RBC Foundation.
MethodsECHO COE: Mental Health pilot consisted of 2 cycles:
6 weekly sessions focused on broader mental health topics (e.g., delirium, mood disorders)
10 weeks with more specific topics (e.g., substance use disorders, sleep disorders)
Needs assessments of healthcare providers and older adults informed the program curricula. Evaluation included weekly satisfaction surveys, and pre and post evaluations.
ResultsParticipants:
154 healthcare providers participated in the 6-week session
39% of registrants were nurses or nurse practitioners, 35% allied health professionals, 14% physicians and 12% others
9 out of 10 provinces, 1 territory represented
Preliminary findings (based on the first 6 sessions):
High overall satisfaction (average of 4.5 out of 5).
99% would recommend the program to others
67% had already shared information with team members and colleagues.
ConclusionA national ECHO program is an effective way to bring together clinicians who work with and are interested in the mental health and wellbeing of older adults for education sessions, collaborative and mutual learning as well as for cross-jurisdictional knowledge transfer. Collaborative, cross-professional learning supports the exchange of best practice in mental health for older adults, supports the development of collegial national professional support and can address health system inequities. An international ECHO through IPA would be an exciting and valuable next step.

Summary
INTRODUCTION
Trade facilitation is an ever-evolving term that has changed its elements and connotations as the world has become more integrated and production more fragmented.
Investing in trade facilitation creates benefits for the government as well as the private sector. Trade facilitation reforms can generate significant welfare gains for the economy as a whole. The APEC Economic Committee has estimated that trade facilitation measures committed to date will add 0.25% of real GDP to APEC (about USD$46 billion in 1997 prices) by 2010, compared to economic gains from trade liberalization measures (tariff removal) amounting to 0.16% of real GDP (about USD$30 billion)” (Wao and Wilson, 2000).
Reducing trade transaction costs is a necessary complement to economic liberalization for developing countries to effectively participate in regional and global markets.
TRADE FACILITATION IN ASEAN
The Association of Southeast Asian Nations (ASEAN) member countries, have made a series of commitments in order to be able to facilitate trade amongst themselves and more recently their main trade partners.
Decreasing tariffs and duties relieves some of the burdens existing for intra-ASEAN trade, but the core inconveniences are related to activities that need to take place in order for cargo to be mobilized amongst countries. As it will be noted below, non-tariff barriers, such as licensing, excessive cargo manipulation, red tape, and bureaucratic procedures can increase the cost of trading goods up to an additional 60% of the cost of cargo at origin. This is not a real issue when the goods traded are of high added value, i.e. electronics, technology goods, fine leather goods, but when the cargo traded is of low added value (agricultural goods, basic textiles and apparel) a steep increase in price caused by external factors can mean a decrease in competitiveness for the goods produced in these countries, or even worse, the complete shutdown of trade in those areas. Indeed, “software” issues — such as processing trade-related documents and fulfilling clearance requirements by customs and other technical control agencies — account for more than 50–60 percent of the total time to export and import in many countries around the world”.

Heterogeneity is observed in the patterns of cognition in Alzheimer’s disease (AD). Such heterogeneity might suggest the involvement of different etiological pathways or different host responses to pathology. A total of 627 subjects with mild/moderate AD underwent cognitive assessment with the Mini-Mental State Examination (MMSE) and the Dementia Rating Scale-2 (DRS-2). Latent class analysis (LCA) was performed on cognition subscale data to identify and characterize cognitive subgroups. Clinical, demographic, and genetic factors were explored for association with class membership. LCA suggested the existence of four subgroups; one group with mild and another with severe global impairment across the cognitive domains, one group with primary impairments in attention and construction, and another group with primary deficits in memory and orientation. Education, disease duration, age, Apolipoprotein E-ε4 (APOE ε4) status, gender, presence of grasp reflex, white matter changes, and early or prominent visuospatial impairment were all associated with class membership. Our results support the existence of heterogeneity in patterns of cognitive impairment in AD. Our observation of classes characterized by predominant deficits in attention/construction and memory respectively deserves further exploration as does the association between membership in the attention/construction class and APOE ε4 negative status.

Up close and personal: a case study of the development of three English fillers

As Peters (2001) has suggested, the young child's use of fillers seems to indicate awareness of distributionally-defined slots in which some as yet unidentified material belongs. One may view a filler as an emergent transitional form; as a slot that serves as an underspecified lexical entry for the accumulation of phonological and functional information; or as prosodic ‘sentence padding’. We trace the development of three fillers in one English-acquiring child through seven months, from their first appearance about 1;9 through their re-analysis as English functors about age 2;4. We show how the description of these fillers requires an elaboration of the current framework for describing the emergence of morphology, from a one-dimensional to a multi-dimensional model. Finally, we argue that the neglect of such transitional and under-defined elements gives a false picture of development, making it appear as if language development takes place in discontinuous steps.

Peters sets up a very useful initial structure for classifying elements which are not yet well-defined morphemes, especially those that seem to be modelled phonologically on adult functors. Some of these primitive elements (pre-morphological items) have neither semantic content nor distributional properties that correspond to any adult morpheme, while the more advanced (protomorphological) items have begun to take on some of the syntactic/semantic characteristics of particular classes of adult-language morphemes.
