Summary of your 'study carrel' ============================== This is a summary of your Distant Reader 'study carrel'. The Distant Reader harvested & cached your content into a collection/corpus. It then applied sets of natural language processing and text mining against the collection. The results of this process was reduced to a database file -- a 'study carrel'. The study carrel can then be queried, thus bringing light specific characteristics for your collection. These characteristics can help you summarize the collection as well as enumerate things you might want to investigate more closely. This report is a terse narrative report, and when processing is complete you will be linked to a more complete narrative report.

Virus diseases of the skin of horses in Australia have not been investigated in detail, but there is ample clinical evidence for the occurrence of equine cutaneous papillomatosis (warts), caused by a host-specific papovavirus and appearing approximately 2 -3 months after infection. Equine viral arteritis has not been detected in Australian horses, but the disease is important in that clinical signs of acute infection (fever, depression, ocular and nasal discharges, oedema of the eyelids, limbs and abdomen, coughing and difficulty in breathing, colic, enteritis, jaundice, abortion) could be confused with infection by several viruses previously discussed. doi = 10.1111/j.1751-0813.1972.tb02314.x id = cord-293903-mvxz7lx7 author = Barraclough, Simon title = Australia''s international health relations in 2003 date = 2005-02-21 keywords = Australia; Health; international summary = In broad terms, these health relations encompass a range of interactions with consequences for health, including: membership of global and regional bodies; the negotiation of international agreements; action to counter particular external threats to health; assistance to developing countries; and international trade and investment in health-related goods and services. In 2003 there were continuing developments in all these areas within a wider foreign affairs context overshadowed by official policy concerns about global and regional security, the deployment of the Australian armed forces in various theatres of service, and renewed fears of the human and economic costs of infectious diseases. These developments have furthered Australian foreign policy concerned with establishing trans-Tasman free trade, commenced some two decades ago with the negotiation of the Closer Economic Relations agreement with New Zealand. In a related development, the Department of Foreign Affairs and Trade promoted aged care expertise as an export service through the Australia Japan Conference. doi = 10.1186/1743-8462-2-3 id = cord-308682-azssgdxd author = Brock, Tina title = Implementing a collaborative medicine and pharmacy educational activity in two countries date = 2020-06-18 keywords = Australia; IPE; Malaysia summary = To promote better collaboration for patient care, learning about, from, and with other members of the healthcare team is now an accreditation requirement for health professions training courses in many countries [1] [2] [3] [4] [5] [6] . This research specifically examines a large-scale instructional activity for second-year medical students and second-year pharmacy students collaborating on a multi-phase asthma-related case at the Australian and Malaysian campuses of Monash University. The structure of the programs at Monash University, where both the medicine and pharmacy courses have cohorts based in Australia and in Malaysia, provides the rare opportunity to develop, implement, and evaluate a similar IPE activity with two professions in these two countries. The design of the IPE activity in this research draws on a Collaborative Care Curriculum (CCC) framework which Monash University created in 2016 to scaffold the knowledge, skills, behaviours, and attitudes for the 12 health professions represented on its campuses [13] . doi = 10.1080/10872981.2020.1780697 id = cord-313981-yuh5rwkt author = Burgner, David title = The burden of pneumonia in children: an Australian perspective date = 2005-05-21 keywords = Australia; child; indigenous summary = 3 The epidemiology of respiratory infections in this population is related to the country of origin or transit, PAEDIATRIC RESPIRATORY REVIEWS (2005) Summary The burden of pneumonia in Australian children is significant with an incidence of 5-8 per 1000 person-years.

There are limited data on pathogen-specific causes of pneumonia, however Streptococcus pneumonia is the most common bacterial cause in children under 5 years of age and respiratory syncytial virus (RSV) and influenza are the predominant viral causes in young children. The epidemiology of childhood respiratory infections partly reflects these differences, with familiar pathogens occurring frequently throughout the country, but with high incidences of bacterial pneumonia amongst Indigenous Australians and less familiar pathogens, such as meliodosis, occurring in the Northern Territory. doi = 10.1016/j.prrv.2005.03.004 id = cord-334956-pi8ifpcy author = Chan, Raymond Javan title = Implementing a nurse-enabled, integrated, shared-care model involving specialists and general practitioners in breast cancer post-treatment follow-up: a study protocol for a phase II randomised controlled trial (the EMINENT trial) date = 2020-10-15 keywords = Australia; Cancer; Health; care; nurse summary = title: Implementing a nurse-enabled, integrated, shared-care model involving specialists and general practitioners in breast cancer post-treatment follow-up: a study protocol for a phase II randomised controlled trial (the EMINENT trial) This study aims to test the feasibility of the EMINENT intervention for implementing an integrated, shared-care model involving both cancer centre specialists and community-based general practitioners for early breast cancer post-treatment follow-up.

In contrast, in the post-war years when Stanford University started its rise to stardom, the decision was made to concentrate on postgraduate programmes (where national reputations were forged), and a relatively few areas where government funding signalled national importance-one of which was electronics research. The major vehicles used to codify education, such as the common range of degrees; deliver education, such as teaching philosophy, curriculum design, lectures, tutorials and web-based materials; assess learning, such as assignments and examinations; and do research, such as academic time and research equipment, are similar across all of Australia''s universities. Also, there now seems to be a need to manage an ever-growing number of risks within the university environment, such as OH&S, staff welfare, student welfare, student malpractice, research malpractice, cyber risk, data risk, ethical risk, operational risk, financial risk, regulatory risk, crisis risk, climate risk, reputation risk. doi = 10.1007/978-981-15-3397-6_9 id = cord-298745-3rrlap70 author = Field, H.

The data sets generated by smartphones, computers, apps and people''s use of them, such as that data collected by Apple and Google, were used by public health officials, researchers and journalists to map population or district-level activity and movement, leading to the very interesting charts, graphs and visualisations in news and current affairs reports and features seeking to map and analyse the spread of COVID and its impact on social and economic activity. With much at stake in terms of public health concerns at a critical juncture of the COVID pandemic, the Australian government emphasised that it was keen to adopt a ''consent-based'' model, hence its interest in adapting the Singapore TraceTogether app. doi = 10.1177/1329878x20949770 id = cord-020941-1qwbkg9o author = HODDLE, MARK S. title = Biological Control of Vertebrate Pests date = 2007-09-02 keywords = Australia; Linnaeus; New; RCD; Zealand; control; european; population; rabbit summary = Historical records indicate that the majority of attempts at vertebrate biological control have been ad hoc efforts and not the product of careful studies designed to elucidate factors and conditions likely to affect the impact of natural enemy introductions on pest populations. Biological control should be fostered internationally because many countries experience similar problems (e.g., rabbits are agricultural pests in Argentina, Australia, Chile, Europe, and New Zealand; rats, cats, and dogs attack endangered faunas on many oceanic islands; feral pigs and goats in New Zealand, Australia, and the United States degrade habitat and threaten endangered flora). Rabbit populations in Australia and New Zealand are maintained at low levels by introduced predators, but regulation only occurs after pest numbers have been reduced by other means. doi = 10.1016/b978-012257305-7/50085-0 id = cord-346136-sqc09x9c author = Hamilton, Kyra title = Application of the Health Action Process Approach to Social Distancing Behavior During COVID‐19 date = 2020-10-02 keywords = Australia; HAPA; behavior; model; social summary = Given that social distancing is a key evidence-based behavior that will minimise transmission of SARS-CoV-2 if performed consistently at the population level, the aim of the present study was to apply the HAPA to identify the social cognition and self-regulatory determinants of this preventive behavior in samples of adults from two countries, Australia and the US. The study adopted a prospective correlational design with self-report measures of HAPA constructs (attitudes, self-efficacy, risk perceptions, intentions, action planning, coping planning, and action control) and past engagement in social distancing behavior administered at an initial time-point (T1) in a survey administered using the Qualtrics TM online survey tool. The present research has a number of strengths including focus on social distancing, a key preventive behavior aimed at reducing transmission of SARS-CoV-2 to prevent COVID-19 infections; adoption of a fit-for-purpose theoretical model, the HAPA, that provides a set of a priori predictions on the motivational and volitional determinants of the target behavior; recruitment of samples from two countries, Australia and the US, with key demographic characteristics that closely match those of the population; and the use of prospective study design and structural equation modelling techniques. doi = 10.1111/aphw.12231 id = cord-025496-lezggdjb author = Hannah, Adam title = The promises and pitfalls of polysemic ideas: ‘One Health’ and antimicrobial resistance policy in Australia and the UK date = 2020-05-29 keywords = AMR; Australia; Department; Health summary = This paper scopes the policy-making potential of polysemic ideas by examining the impact of an ambiguous concept known as ''One Health'' on responses to antimicrobial resistance (AMR) in Australia and the UK. The cases show that Australian and UK governments both developed strategies against AMR while consulting broad arrays of stakeholders across human and animal health, food production, and the research sector. To scope the role of polysemic ideas in actual policy-making, we next investigate the political implications of ''One Health'', a concept that has become accepted among global and national public health authorities as the key ''approach'' to emerging infectious diseases (One Health 2017). While both countries have responded to AMR with national strategies and more specific policy initiatives, particularly in human health, Australia appears to be making less progress than the UK in critical areas such as surveillance in the veterinary health and food sectors. doi = 10.1007/s11077-020-09390-3 id = cord-014922-pqy8bikp author = Hayes, Adrian C. title = Book reviews date = 2003 keywords = Australia; Japan; chapter; policy; population summary = In this book McMichael argues that the way to make sense of this paradox is to use a broad human ecological perspective on population health.

We recommend a commitment in pandemic planning documents to sharing sources, models, and evidence at the time of deliberation, and with it, the questions advisors are asking (such as, will the same number of deaths occur regardless of strategy over the long term?) Earlier public discussion of these questions might at least have somewhat disrupted simplistic framing and use of "herd immunity," by enabling early and public scientific challenge from epidemiologists, as occurred from mid-March (Armitage and Hawke 2020; Barr 2020; MacIntyre 2020).

Fortunately, medicine has progressed since then, and the response to COVID-19 in countries like Australia, New Zealand, Singapore, Hong Kong and Taiwan has been robust. The aggressive stance adopted by Australia and New Zealand in travel bans, social distancing and active quarantine and surveillance has flattened the curve, curtailed the spread and prevented overwhelming of healthcare systems by COVID-19 patients. As countries learn to live with COVID-19, with a flattened curve and limited outbreaks that can be controlled by quarantine and case contacting, coming out of a lockdown presents equal challenge to entering one.

Figure 2 shows the estimated number of COVID-19 cases imported by citizens/residents and visitors from the ten largest sources before and after the respective travel restrictions were implemented. To decide whether it is safe to open international borders, governments need to understand the relationship between the number of arrivals, incidence rates in countries that act as importation sources and the expected number of COVID-19 importations. We use the monthly number of observed COVID-19 infections amongst travellers arriving into Australia from a given country to estimate the country''s true incidence rate. The importation model requires as input the date of arrival into the country under investigation (in our case Australia), the duration of the overseas stay, daily incidence rates of COVID-19 in the country of origin and the lengths of the latent and infectious periods. doi = 10.1101/2020.10.11.20211060 id = cord-300227-4zalzk21 author = Looke, David F M title = The global challenges of infectious diseases date = 2015-03-16 keywords = AMR; Australia summary = 1 We identified antimicrobial resistance (AMR) as a public health crisis requiring global professional and political action, and reflected on how the spread of infectious diseases and AMR is affected by interconnected factors including mass transportation, climate change, environmental perturbations and mass food production. 5 The Australian Commission on Safety and Quality in Health Care (ACSQHC) is setting up comprehensive surveillance of AMR and consumption through the Antimicrobial Use and Resistance in Australia project, 6 and a similar exercise is planned for animals and agriculture. 7 One way to measure success of programs to limit AMR is through reduction of health care-associated infections (HAIs).

In this tropical Aboriginal community, serological evidence of the burden of previous infections with known viral and other respiratory pathogens was associated with significant decreases in the levels of airway function, consistent with airflow obstruction. The relationship of FEV1 and FEV1/FVC ratio with the total number of positive titres in this study suggests that repeated infections with common respiratory pathogens may have a cumulative detrimental effect on airway function or increase susceptibility to other agents such as tobacco smoke. doi = 10.1111/j.1440-1843.2007.01221.x id = cord-296167-np0b9a7o author = Mardani, Karim title = Naturally occurring recombination between distant strains of infectious bronchitis virus date = 2010-06-24 keywords = Australia; IBV summary = In the present study, the 3′ terminal 7.2 kb of the genome of a recently isolated variant of IBV (N1/03) was sequenced and compared with the sequences of classical and novel strains of IBV, the two main groups of these viruses in Australia.

In assessing bilateral tourism from an economic viewpoint, Mathieson and Wall (1982) discussed the implications of measures designed to regain trade balances, Prideaux and Witt (2000) examined bilateral flows between countries in the ASEAN group and Australia, King and Choi (1999) considered the case of South Korea and Australia, Yu (1998) examined flow patterns between China and Taiwan, and Dwyer (2001) examined a range of issues related to destination competitiveness. The literature review found that demand relies on the interaction of a large range of factors that include price, personal preferences, destination image, government regulations, personal financial capacity to travel, international political/military tensions, health epidemics, concerns for personal safety, and fear of crime. doi = 10.1016/j.annals.2004.04.008 id = cord-007577-f1jzbtjj author = Raphael Shulman, N. title = Hepatitis-associated antigen date = 2006-09-18 keywords = Australia; HAA; antigen; figure; hepatitis; patient summary = Frequency of HAA in acute hepatitis: After the initial suggestion in 1967 by Blumberg and co-workers [4] that Australia antigen might be related to the infectious agent of viral hepatitis, and the demonstration in 1968 by Okochi and Murakami [5] and Prince [6] that the antigen appeared in blood of patients during the incubation period of serum hepatitis, a number of investigators reported further evidence for existence of a hepatitis-associated antigen (Table II) . The antibodies used diagnostically to measure HAA by precipitin and complement fixation technics all come from patients who have received multiple transfusions and in whom high titer "hyperimmune" anti-HAA developed apparently as a result of repeated exposure to antigen in transfused blood.

However, with travel restrictions from mainland China to Australia imposed from February 1, our framework was designed to consider the importation risk from China into Australia via potential intermediary countries in the Asia Pacific region. While the detailed analysis presented here is specific to Australia and the South East Asia and Western Pacific regions during the early phase of COVID-19 emergence, the framework itself is adaptable to other contexts for future outbreak response. A framework was developed to assess the risk of COVID-19 infections being imported by passengers travelling on flights from the South East Asia and Western Pacific regions to Australia as of February 19, 2020. doi = 10.1101/2020.04.09.20057257 id = cord-307038-c58mzcu9 author = Shukla, Nagesh title = A Review of Models Used for Investigating Barriers to Healthcare Access in Australia date = 2020-06-08 keywords = Australia; barrier; health; study summary = This review study is an attempt to understand the various modeling approaches used by researchers to analyze diverse barriers related to specific disease types and the various areal distributions in the country.

In Australia, the median age of confirmed cases is 21 years [2] Universities therefore have the potential to become explosive, centrifugal outbreak centres due to their large young adult population, high levels of close social contact and permeable boundaries. This survey was conducted to examine the understanding of and attitudes towards pandemic (H1N1) 2009 amongst students and staff at the University of New South Wales (UNSW), Sydney, Australia and their behavioural intentions during this pandemic. However in our study, few respondents had adopted the use of online teaching or learning resources as a result of pandemic influenza (H1N1). Of the participants surveyed, Asian-born respondents were the most likely to be anxious about the Australian pandemic situation, rate the situation as serious, undertake specific behavioural changes and comply with public health measures. doi = 10.1186/1471-2458-10-130 id = cord-307046-ko3bdvo0 author = Vasilakis, Nikos title = Exploiting the Legacy of the Arbovirus Hunters date = 2019-05-23 keywords = Aedes; Australia; Institute; NGS; USSR; fever; human; isolate; isolation; mosquito; new; novel; tick; virus summary = Complete genome sequences are now available for many of the archived isolates, allowing more accurate taxonomic assignments, analysis of their phylogenetic and evolutionary relationships with other viruses, and evaluation of the potential risks they may present to humans and wild or domestic animal populations.

Influenza is a serious respiratory virus which costs the Australian healthcare system $115 million annually. Whilst there have been numerous Australian studies on influenza vaccine uptake amongst hospital and institutional HCWs 6, [9] [10] [11] [12] [13] and some studies on attitudes of primary care clinicians to influenza vaccination for their patients 14, 15 , there has been limited published studies to date on influenza vaccination coverage, barriers and enablers amongst primary health care staff in Australia.

Guided by the concepts considered to be of importance in these health behaviour theories, and the protection motivation theory framework in particular, we aimed to investigate the association between selected beliefs and preparedness for pandemic influenza among small and medium business owners and managers. Binomial logistic regression analysis was used to identify the significant independent predictors of the health behaviour theory-based belief variables and the three main dependent variables: having considered the impact of, having a plan for, and needing help to prepare for pandemic influenza. doi = 10.1186/1471-2458-7-157 id = cord-343139-19t8g7u7 author = Wintle, Brendan A. title = After the Megafires: What Next for Australian Wildlife? date = 2020-07-14 keywords = Australia; fire; specie summary = Unfortunately, there was little strategic priority in fire control operations for the protection of key populations of threatened species, critical habitats, and threatened ecological communities.

Conclusion Despite an overall decline in all paediatric orthopaedic hospital activity, the number of emergency admissions for musculoskeletal conditions did not change. In contrast to other developed countries with advanced healthcare systems, such as the USA and UK, Australia has seen rapid control of COVID-19 case numbers with minimal mortality rate, despite initiating lockdown and restricting non-urgent elective surgeries in a similar timeframe (Table 1) . Data were sourced for outpatient clinics attendance, ED presentations, musculoskeletal-related hospital admissions and surgeries performed within a six-week period between 16 March 2020 and 26 April 2020 (weeks 12 to 17 of 2020). All patients admitted to the hospital for paediatric orthopaedic surgery within the study period were identified and reviewed for: demographics, diagnosis, admission category (elective, emergency), type of surgical procedures and length of stay. doi = 10.1302/1863-2548.14.200140 id = cord-305391-rb5gpsvn author = Wozniak, Teresa M. title = Championing women working in health across regional and rural Australia – a new dual-mentorship model date = 2020-09-11 keywords = Australia; Program; mentee; mentor summary = -To be linked up to people who are further in their career for mentorship -To have a toolkit to develop leadership skills -To have considered with the support of the Program facilitator a 5-10-year career plan -To decide the next career step and why -To gain increased confidence -To be able to promote myself and my work -To gain a more strategic approach to career development and change direction if needed -To have dedicated time to reflect on my career -To develop relationships with those who have blazed the path before me At each of the subsequent workshops, these expectations were reviewed, and mentees participated in a selfassessment survey to assess progress made towards these objectives, as well as to identify broader learnings ( Table 2 and Table S2 ). doi = 10.1186/s12909-020-02219-w id = cord-009582-3206fmbs author = nan title = NEWS date = 2009-09-25 keywords = AVA; Australia; Veterinary; award; member; practice; veterinarian summary = This is a critical story that needs to be read, remembered and put into practice and the AVA will continue to communicate with members nationally as well as through our SIG''s, divisions and branches.
