    Addressing climate change with behavioral science: a global intervention tournament in 63 countries

    Effectively reducing climate change requires marked, global behavior change. However, it is unclear which strategies are most likely to motivate people to change their climate beliefs and behaviors. Here, we tested 11 expert-crowdsourced interventions on four climate mitigation outcomes: beliefs, policy support, information sharing intention, and an effortful tree-planting behavioral task. Across 59,440 participants from 63 countries, the interventions’ effectiveness was small, largely limited to nonclimate skeptics, and differed across outcomes: Beliefs were strengthened mostly by decreasing psychological distance (by 2.3%), policy support by writing a letter to a future-generation member (2.6%), information sharing by negative emotion induction (12.1%), and no intervention increased the more effortful behavior—several interventions even reduced tree planting. Last, the effects of each intervention differed depending on people’s initial climate beliefs. These findings suggest that the impact of behavioral climate interventions varies across audiences and target behaviors

    IMPORTANCE Overactivation of the renin-angiotensin system (RAS) may contribute to poor clinical outcomes in patients with COVID-19. Objective To determine whether angiotensin-converting enzyme (ACE) inhibitor or angiotensin receptor blocker (ARB) initiation improves outcomes in patients hospitalized for COVID-19. DESIGN, SETTING, AND PARTICIPANTS In an ongoing, adaptive platform randomized clinical trial, 721 critically ill and 58 non–critically ill hospitalized adults were randomized to receive an RAS inhibitor or control between March 16, 2021, and February 25, 2022, at 69 sites in 7 countries (final follow-up on June 1, 2022). INTERVENTIONS Patients were randomized to receive open-label initiation of an ACE inhibitor (n = 257), ARB (n = 248), ARB in combination with DMX-200 (a chemokine receptor-2 inhibitor; n = 10), or no RAS inhibitor (control; n = 264) for up to 10 days. MAIN OUTCOMES AND MEASURES The primary outcome was organ support–free days, a composite of hospital survival and days alive without cardiovascular or respiratory organ support through 21 days. The primary analysis was a bayesian cumulative logistic model. Odds ratios (ORs) greater than 1 represent improved outcomes. RESULTS On February 25, 2022, enrollment was discontinued due to safety concerns. Among 679 critically ill patients with available primary outcome data, the median age was 56 years and 239 participants (35.2%) were women. Median (IQR) organ support–free days among critically ill patients was 10 (–1 to 16) in the ACE inhibitor group (n = 231), 8 (–1 to 17) in the ARB group (n = 217), and 12 (0 to 17) in the control group (n = 231) (median adjusted odds ratios of 0.77 [95% bayesian credible interval, 0.58-1.06] for improvement for ACE inhibitor and 0.76 [95% credible interval, 0.56-1.05] for ARB compared with control). The posterior probabilities that ACE inhibitors and ARBs worsened organ support–free days compared with control were 94.9% and 95.4%, respectively. Hospital survival occurred in 166 of 231 critically ill participants (71.9%) in the ACE inhibitor group, 152 of 217 (70.0%) in the ARB group, and 182 of 231 (78.8%) in the control group (posterior probabilities that ACE inhibitor and ARB worsened hospital survival compared with control were 95.3% and 98.1%, respectively). CONCLUSIONS AND RELEVANCE In this trial, among critically ill adults with COVID-19, initiation of an ACE inhibitor or ARB did not improve, and likely worsened, clinical outcomes.

    This study aims to determine the contribution, position, growth, and basis and non basis of each agricultural subsector to the GRDP in the economy of Hulu Sungai Utara Regency from 2013-2017.&nbsp; The data used is secondary data originating from the Central Bureau of Statistics and related government agencies.&nbsp; The analytical method used is contribution analysis, typology of class, shift share and LQ.&nbsp; The results showed that of the five agricultural sub-sectors in North Hulu Sungai Regency the highest contribution to the agricultural sector was the food crop subsector in the past five years at 61.07%.&nbsp; The position of the five agricultural sub-sectors is in the third place, which means that the five subsectors are potential or can still develop.&nbsp; The growth of each agricultural sub-sector in the economy of Hulu Sungai Utara Regency varies from the proportional growth of the food, livestock and fisheries sub-sectors to rapid growth while the horticulture and plantation subsectors experienced slow growth. The five agricultural sub-sectors are not competitive or lack competitiveness with other regions in South Kalimantan Province.&nbsp; The subsector which is the subsector of the base is the food, livestock and fisheries subsector while the horticulture and plantation subsector is the non-base sub-sector in North Hulu Sungai Regency

    Pandemi covid 19 telah menjangkit di 222 negara di dunia termasuk Indonesia. Upaya terbaik yang dapat dilakukan guna mencegah penularan Covid-19 adalah dengan mendorong agar seluruh warga terlibat aktif dalam pencegahan dan penanganan Covid-19 melalui Perubahan perilaku. Perubahan perilaku yang diharapkan terutama patuh terhadap protokol kesehatan pencegahan Covid-19, yang sering dikenal dengan istilah 3M, yaitu_memakai_masker, menjaga_jarak, dan mencuci tangan dengan sabun. Melalui kegiatan pengabdian dengan metode ceramah dan tanya jawab, tim pengabdi memberi edukasi kepada 27 orang siswa di SMK Kesehatan Yannas Husada Bangkalan. Pengetahuan siswa sebagai peserta diukur menggunakan kuisioner yang diberikan sebelum_dan_sesudah kegiatan_berlangsung. Hasil kegiatan ini menunjukkan adanya peningkatan pengetahuan siswa tentang protokol kesehatan 3M sebesar 44,1%

    A genomic catalog of Earth’s microbiomes

    No full text
    The reconstruction of bacterial and archaeal genomes from shotgun metagenomes has enabled insights into the ecology and evolution of environmental and host-associated microbiomes. Here we applied this approach to >10,000 metagenomes collected from diverse habitats covering all of Earth’s continents and oceans, including metagenomes from human and animal hosts, engineered environments, and natural and agricultural soils, to capture extant microbial, metabolic and functional potential. This comprehensive catalog includes 52,515 metagenome-assembled genomes representing 12,556 novel candidate species-level operational taxonomic units spanning 135 phyla. The catalog expands the known phylogenetic diversity of bacteria and archaea by 44% and is broadly available for streamlined comparative analyses, interactive exploration, metabolic modeling and bulk download. We demonstrate the utility of this collection for understanding secondary-metabolite biosynthetic potential and for resolving thousands of new host linkages to uncultivated viruses. This resource underscores the value of genome-centric approaches for revealing genomic properties of uncultivated microorganisms that affect ecosystem processes.</p
