Results of a World Health Organization scoping of sexual dysfunction-related guidelines: what exists and what is needed
BACKGROUND: Sexual dysfunction has long been overlooked in the broader context of sexual and reproductive health services. As a result, and in the absence of international sexual dysfunction treatment guidelines, recommendations have instead been developed by a variety of professional associations, worldwide. AIM: We conducted a mapping of existing recommendations addressing a wide array of conditions related to sexual function/dysfunction. METHODS: We contacted 25 professional associations from around the world and held an online open call for guidelines. OUTCOMES: Eligible submissions had to provide recommendations on treatment related to male or female sexual dysfunction. RESULTS: Twelve guidelines from 11 associations were included. Of the 195 recommendations extracted, 61% were related to men, 53% were related specifically to treatment, and 48% did some form of evidence assessment. CONCLUSION: Recommendations from this exercise are provided for WHO, international and national research institutions, ministries of health, and professional associations.

A long way to go: a systematic review to assess the utilisation of sexual and reproductive health services during humanitarian crises.
INTRODUCTION: Women and girls are affected significantly in both sudden and slow-onset emergencies, and face multiple sexual and reproductive health (SRH) challenges in humanitarian crises contexts. There are an estimated 26 million women and girls of reproductive age living in humanitarian crises settings, all of whom need access to SRH information and services. This systematic review aimed to assess the utilisation of services of SRH interventions from the onset of emergencies in low- and middle-income countries. METHODS: We searched for both quantitative and qualitative studies in peer-reviewed journals across the following four databases: EMBASE, Global Health, MEDLINE and PsychINFO from 1 January 1980 to 10 April 2017. Primary outcomes of interest included self-reported use and/or confirmed use of the Minimum Initial Service Package services and abortion services. Two authors independently extracted and analysed data from published papers on the effect of SRH interventions on a range of SRH care utilisation outcomes from the onset of emergencies, and used a narrative synthesis approach. RESULTS: Of the 2404 identified citations, 23 studies met the inclusion criteria. 52.1% of the studies (n=12) used quasi-experimental study designs, which provided some statistical measure of difference between intervention and outcome. 39.1% of the studies (n=9) selected were graded as high quality, 39.1% moderate quality (n=9) and 17.4% low quality (n=4). Evidence of effectiveness in increasing service utilisation was available for the following interventions: peer-led and interpersonal education and mass media campaigns, community-based programming and three-tiered network of community-based reproductive and maternal health providers. CONCLUSIONS: Despite increased attention to SRH service provision in humanitarian crises settings, the evidence base is still very limited. More implementation research is required to identify interventions to increase utilisation of SRH services in diverse humanitarian crises settings and populations
Evaluating the effectiveness of sexual and reproductive health services during humanitarian crises: A systematic review.
BACKGROUND: An estimated 32 million women and girls of reproductive age living in emergency situations, all of whom require sexual and reproductive health (SRH) information and services. This systematic review assessed the effect of SRH interventions, including the Minimum Initial Service Package (MISP) on a range of health outcomes from the onset of emergencies. METHODS AND FINDINGS: We searched EMBASE, Global Health, MEDLINE and PsychINFO databases from January 1, 1980 to April 10, 2017. This review was registered with the PROSPERO database with identifier number CRD42017082102. We found 29 studies meet the inclusion criteria. We found high quality evidence to support the effectiveness of specific SRH interventions, such as home visits and peer-led educational and counselling, training of lower-level health care providers, community health workers (CHWs) to promote SRH services, a three-tiered network of health workers providing reproductive and maternal health services, integration of HIV and SRH services, and men's discussion groups for reducing intimate partner violence. We found moderate quality evidence to support transport-based referral systems, community-based SRH education, CHW delivery of injectable contraceptives, wider literacy programmes, and birth preparedness interventions. No studies reported interventions related to fistulae, and only one study focused on abortion services. CONCLUSIONS: Despite increased attention to SRH in humanitarian crises, the sector has made little progress in advancing the evidence base for the effectiveness of SRH interventions, including the MISP, in crisis settings. A greater quantity and quality of more timely research is needed to ascertain the effectiveness of delivering SRH interventions in a variety of humanitarian crises
Classically time-controlled quantum automata
In this paper we introduce classically time-controlled quantum automata or CTQA, which is a slight but reasonable modification of Moore-Crutchfield quantum finite automata that uses time-dependent evolution operators and a scheduler defining how long each operator will run. Surprisingly enough, time-dependent evolutions provide a significant change in the computational power of quantum automata with respect to a discrete quantum model. Furthermore, CTQA presents itself as a new model of computation that provides a different approach to a formal study of “classical control, quantum data” schemes in quantum computing.CONACYT – Consejo Nacional de Ciencia y TecnologĂaPROCIENCI
Re-Evaluation of the UK’s HFC-134a Emissions Inventory Based on Atmospheric Observations
Independent
verification of national greenhouse gas inventories
is a vital measure for cross-checking the accuracy of emissions data
submitted to the United Nations Framework Convention on Climate Change
(UNFCCC). We infer annual UK emissions of HFC-134a from 1995 to 2012
using atmospheric observations and an inverse modeling technique,
and compare with the UK’s annual UNFCCC submission. By 2010,
the inventory is almost twice as large as our estimates, with an “emissions
gap” equating to 3.90 (3.20–4.30) Tg CO<sub>2</sub>e.
We evaluate the RAC (Refrigeration and Air-Conditioning) model, a
bottom up model used to quantify UK emissions from refrigeration and
air-conditioning sectors. Within mobile air-conditioning (MAC), the
largest RAC sector and most significant UK source (59%), we find a
number of assumptions that may be considered oversimplistic and conservative;
most notably the unit refill rate. Finally, a Bayesian approach is
used to estimate probable inventory inputs required for minimization
of the emissions discrepancy. Our top-down estimates provide only
a weak constraint on inventory model parameters and consequently,
we are unable to suggest discrete values. However, a significant revision
of the MAC servicing rate, coupled with a reassessment of non-RAC
aerosol emissions, are required if the discrepancy between methods
is to be reduced
Unary probabilistic and quantum automata on promise problems
We continue the systematic investigation of probabilistic and quantum finite
automata (PFAs and QFAs) on promise problems by focusing on unary languages. We
show that bounded-error QFAs are more powerful than PFAs. But, in contrary to
the binary problems, the computational powers of Las-Vegas QFAs and
bounded-error PFAs are equivalent to deterministic finite automata (DFAs).
Lastly, we present a new family of unary promise problems with two parameters
such that when fixing one parameter QFAs can be exponentially more succinct
than PFAs and when fixing the other parameter PFAs can be exponentially more
succinct than DFAs.Comment: Minor correction
Islet autoantibody status in a multi-ethnic UK clinic cohort of children presenting with diabetes.
OBJECTIVE: We prospectively determined islet autoantibody status in children presenting with diabetes to a single UK region in relation to ethnicity.
DESIGN: 316 (68.0% non-white) children presenting with diabetes between 2006 and 2013 were tested centrally for islet cell autoantibodies (ICA) and glutamic acid decarboxylase autoantibodies (GAD-65) at diagnosis, and if negative for both, tested for insulin autoantibodies (IAA). The assay used to measure GAD-65 autoantibodies changed from an in-house to a standardised ELISA method during the study.
RESULTS: Even with use of the standardised ELISA method, 25.8% of children assigned a diagnosis of type 1 diabetes still tested negative for all three autoantibodies. 30% of children assigned a diagnosis of type 2 diabetes were autoantibody positive, and these had the highest glycated haemoglobin (HbA1c) levels at 12 months follow-up compared with other groups (p value for analysis of variance <0.001), although the sample size was small. Autoantibody positivity was similar between non-white and white children regardless of assay used (60.0% (n=129) vs 56.4% (n=57), χ2=0.9, p=0.35), as was mean GAD-65 autoantibody levels, but fewer non-white children had two or more autoantibodies detectable (13% (n=28) vs 27.7% (n=28), χ2=12.1, p=0.001).
CONCLUSION: Islet autoantibody positivity was associated with a more severe phenotype, as demonstrated by poorer glycaemic control, regardless of assigned diabetes subtype. Positivity did not differ by ethnic group
Quantum computation with devices whose contents are never read
In classical computation, a "write-only memory" (WOM) is little more than an
oxymoron, and the addition of WOM to a (deterministic or probabilistic)
classical computer brings no advantage. We prove that quantum computers that
are augmented with WOM can solve problems that neither a classical computer
with WOM nor a quantum computer without WOM can solve, when all other resource
bounds are equal. We focus on realtime quantum finite automata, and examine the
increase in their power effected by the addition of WOMs with different access
modes and capacities. Some problems that are unsolvable by two-way
probabilistic Turing machines using sublogarithmic amounts of read/write memory
are shown to be solvable by these enhanced automata.Comment: 32 pages, a preliminary version of this work was presented in the 9th
