Violence prevention accelerators for children and adolescents in South Africa: A path analysis using two pooled cohorts. by Lucie D Cluver, William E Rudgard, Elona Toska, Siyanai Zhou, Laurence Campeau, Yulia Shenderovich, Mark Orkin, Chris Desmond, Alexander Butchart, Howard Taylor, Franziska Meinck, Lorraine Sherr

“…Positive parenting, parental monitoring and supervision, and food security at home were each associated with lower odds of three or more violence outcomes (p < 0.05). For girls, the adjusted probability of violence outcomes was estimated to be lower if all three of these factors were present, as compared to none of them: sexual abuse, 5.38% and 1.64% (ARD: -3.74% points, 95% CI -5.31 to -2.16, p < 0.001); transactional sexual exploitation, 10.07% and 4.84% (ARD: -5.23% points, 95% CI -7.26 to -3.20, p < 0.001); physical abuse, 38.58% and 23.85% (ARD: -14.72% points, 95% CI -19.11 to -10.33, p < 0.001); emotional abuse, 25.39% and 12.98% (ARD: -12.41% points, 95% CI -16.00 to -8.83, p < 0.001); community violence victimisation, 36.25% and 28.37% (ARD: -7.87% points, 95% CI -11.98 to -3.76, p < 0.001); and youth lawbreaking, 18.90% and 11.61% (ARD: -7.30% points, 95% CI -10.50 to -4.09, p < 0.001). …”

The effect of vagus nerve stimulation on heart rate and respiration rate and their impact on seizure susceptibility in anaesthetized rats under pentylenetetrazol by Javier Chávez Cerda, Elena Acedo Reina, Ayse S. Dereli, Louis Vande Perre, Romain Raffoul, Maxime Verstraeten, Michel-Antony Ngan Yamb, Enrique Germany Morrison, Elise Collard, Auriane Apaire, Pascal Doguet, Jérôme Garnier, Jean Delbeke, Riëm El Tahry, Antoine Nonclercq

“…The stimulation slightly increased the average breathing rate for standard VNS (+13.0 ± 14.6 bpm) and breathing-synchronized VNS (+13.7 ± 10.4 bpm), however with significantly enlarged standard deviation. More specifically, the breathing rate presented a pattern that suggests that the rats experienced respiratory hypoxia under stimulation. …”
