In this study, we describe the movement and trading patterns of the backyard chicken in Ratchaburi, Thailand by using social network analysis with egocentric approach. From questionnaire results, we found that there is a close relationship between chicken owners' houses and fresh markets, and we concluded that this relationship needs attention from authorities to prevent future outbreaks of avian flu. Control measures should be applied over pathways to prevent and control highly pathogenic avian influenza subtype H5N1 in the backyard farming system. Results of our study may be useful to relevant authorities and researchers seeking to understand how H5N1 spreads in Ratchaburi. This may reflect on the spread of H5N1 throughout Thailand.

Importance: Caregivers of community-dwelling older adults play a protective role in emergency department (ED) care transitions. When the demands of caregiving result in caregiver burden, ED returns can ensue.
Objective: To develop models describing whether caregiver burden is associated with ED revisits and hospital admissions up to 30 days after discharge from an initial ED visit.

Purpose: To develop a comprehensive ICF Core Set (ICF-CS) for vertebral fragility fracture.
Materials And Methods: The development of ICF-CSs involves three phases: i) systematic literature review and qualitative studies; ii) linking process to identify the ICF codes and categories; iii) international consensus process. i) We performed a literature search and qualitative studies with people with vertebral fragility fractures and healthcare professionals; ii) We linked the findings from the search and qualitative studies to the ICF categories, and drafted the proposed ICF-CS; iii) We performed an international consensus process involving experts with clinical or research experience in management of vertebral fragility fractures.

Background: Sleep quality has emerged as a critical public health concern, yet our understanding of how multiple determinants interact to influence sleep outcomes remains limited. This study employed partial correlation network analysis to examine the hierarchical structure of sleep quality determinants among Chinese adults.
Methods: We investigated the interrelationships among nine key factors: daily activity rhythm, social interaction frequency, work-life balance, light exposure, physical activity level, time control perception, shift work, weekend catch-up sleep, and sleep quality using the extended Bayesian Information Criterion (EBIC) glasso model.
