ABSTRACTObjective: to assess the knowledge of the nursing staff about pain as a fifth vital sign, in the IPO. Method: this is a descriptive, quantitative study, approved by the Ethics Committee of the University of Taubaté, Taubaté-SP, protocol number 521/07. The population was consisted of nursing assistants and nursing technicians who work in orthopedic, surgery clinics, adult UTI and private Hospital of Taubaté-SP. Data were collected between January and August 2008, through a questionnaire. The results were quantified using the program Microsoft Excel 2003. Results: respondents defined pain as something that is not right, discomfort, anxiety, unpleasant feeling, physical and mental suffering, and as the 5th vital sign. They know some kind of instrument to assess pain, but, in the IPO, it was assessed only through the complaint, and reported only the presence of pain and location. They stressed that, if the pain is not treated properly, there might be consequences for both patient and nursing staff. Conclusion: the respondents are not prepared to assess and treat patients with pain correctly. In this light, it is believed that it is worth investing in training professionals to expand their knowledge and to give medical treatment consciously and humanized.

IntroductionSexual violence among higher education students is a public health concern, threatening the general safety of students, often with significant physical and mental health implications for victims. Establishing the prevalence estimates of sexual violence at higher education institutions (HEIs) is essential for designing and resourcing responses to sexual violence, including monitoring the effectiveness of prevention initiatives and institutional programmes. Yet, to date, there have been no rigorous studies assessing prevalence of sexual violence at HEIs in the UK.Methods and analysisInformed by guidance from Universities UK, the University of Oxford administration and the related student advocacy groups working within the University, Oxford Understanding Relationships, Sex, Power, Abuse and Consent Experiences is a cross-sectional survey of all undergraduate and graduate students over the age of 18 enrolled at the University of Oxford, UK. The survey design uses a complete sampling approach and measures adapted from previous campus climate surveys in the USA as well as the Sexual Experiences Survey (USA). The analysis will estimate the prevalence of sexual harassment and sexual violence perpetration and victimisation, and will examine whether ethnicity, gender identity, and sexual orientation are associated with these primary outcomes.Ethics and disseminationEthical approval was obtained by the Social Sciences and Humanities Interdivisional Research Ethics Committee at the University of Oxford which is a subcommittee of the Central University Research Ethics Committee (ref no.: R73805/RE001). The research team will disseminate findings through peer-reviewed journal articles and conference presentations. A report cowritten by authors and stakeholders will be shared with Oxford University students.

IntroductionStreptococcus pneumoniae (the pneumococcus) is commonly carried as a commensal bacterium in the nasopharynx but can cause life-threatening disease. Transmission occurs by human respiratory droplets and interruption of this process provides herd immunity. A 2017 WHO Consultation on Optimisation of pneumococcal conjugate vaccines (PCV) Impact highlighted a substantial research gap in investigating why the impact of PCV vaccines in low-income countries has been lower than expected. Malawi introduced the 13-valent PCV (PCV13) into the national Expanded Programme of Immunisations in 2011, using a 3+0 (3 primary +0 booster doses) schedule. With evidence of greater impact of a 2+1 (2 primary +1 booster dose) schedule in other settings, including South Africa, Malawi’s National Immunisations Technical Advisory Group is seeking evidence of adequate superiority of a 2+1 schedule to inform vaccine policy.MethodsA pragmatic health centre-based evaluation comparing impact of a PCV13 schedule change from 3+0 to 2+1 in Blantyre district, Malawi. Twenty government health centres will be randomly selected, with ten implementing a 2+1 and 10 to continue with the 3+0 schedule. Health centres implementing 3+0 will serve as the direct comparator in evaluating 2+1 providing superior direct and indirect protection against pneumococcal carriage. Pneumococcal carriage surveys will evaluate carriage prevalence among children 15–24 months, randomised at household level, and schoolgoers 5–10 years of age, randomly selected from school registers. Carriage surveys will be conducted 18 and 33 months following 2+1 implementation.AnalysisThe primary endpoint is powered to detect an effect size of 50% reduction in vaccine serotype (VT) carriage among vaccinated children 15–24 months old, expecting a 14% and 7% VT carriage prevalence in the 3+0 and 2+1 arms, respectively.Ethics and disseminationThe study has been approved by the Malawi College of Medicine Research Ethics Committee (COMREC; Ref: P05.19.2680), the University College London Research Ethics Committee (Ref: 8603.002) and the University of Liverpool Research Ethics Committee (Ref: 5439). The results from this study will be actively disseminated through manuscript publications and conference presentations.Trial registration numberNCT04078997.

Abstract BACKGROUND Over the past two decades, Uganda has experienced a significant increase in clinical research driven by both industry and the need to combat the emergence and re-emergence of infectious disease epidemics. This has broadened the spectrum of research proposals that need evaluation by Research Ethics Committees (RECs) with associated requirement for new expertise. We assessed the competencies of REC members in review of research protocols with complex and new research study designs to guide development of a training curriculum to improve the quality of review.METHODS This was a cross-sectional study design, with quantitative and qualitative data collection methods. We used a structured pre-coded questionnaire to collect data on competencies of REC members in review of research protocols with complex and new research study designs. Research Ethics Committee members were also asked to outline a list of additional topics for which they needed training. Data from coded questions was entered into Epidata Version 3.1 and then exported to STATA Version14.1 for analysis. Descriptive analysis was performed for quantitative data and findings were presented using percentages and frequencies. RESULTS We enrolled 55/97 REC members from 6 RECs, majority of whom were males (56.4%, n= 31/55). The level of competence for review of selected study design was lowest for Controlled Human Infection Model (6, 10.9%) and reverse pharmacology design (6, 10.9%,), and highest for cluster randomized study design (29, 52.7%) and implementation science research (29, 52.7%).CONCLUSION There is lack of competence in review of research protocols with complex and new study design and our analysis suggests that additional training in this area is an urgent priority.

The Capability Approach

The pre-eminent motivation behind this contribution lies in the intention to offer students of three-year degree course in education and training sciences and master's degree in pedagogical sciences of the University of Macerata a further support than those already existing, aimed at expanding the educational meaningfulness of the internship experience. The main criticality of such experience is connected with the difficulty in translating knowledge, models, ideas into appropriate activities. This notably refers to the conceptual and educational core of the sense of initiative and entrepreneurship and, consistently, to the skill to act. Therefore, after a deepening of the sense of initiative and entrepreneurship, followed by related pedagogical reflections based on the capability approach, the paper presents an operative proposal aimed at increasing young people's possibilities of action and supporting their personal and professional growth. With regard to this training proposal, the theoretical and methodological framework refers to the third generation cultural historical activity theory and to the tool of the boundary crossing laboratory, variant of the change laboratory

Nowadays, the Industry 4.0 concept affects every area of the industrial, economic, social and personal sectors. The most significant changings are the automation and the digitalization. This is also true for the material handling processes, where the handling systems use more and more automated machines; planning, operation and optimization of different logistic processes are based on many digital data collected from the material flow process. However, new methods and devices require new solutions which define new research directions. In this paper we describe the state of the art of the material handling researches and draw the role of the UMi-TWINN partner institutes in these fields. As a result of this H2020 EU project, scientific excellence of the University of Miskolc can be increased and new research activities will be started.
