Article Abstract
The German Emergency Department Data Registry (GEDD-registry, AKTIN) provides an infrastructure for collecting and querying up-to-date medical records in a distributed manner. Within this framework, a benchmark report on cross-institutional comparison using the program R is prepared using routine data of participating hospitals. Currently, 16 emergency departments (EDs) routinely transfer data of 1,200 to approximately 5,000 patients per month to a federated GEDD-registry datawarehouse. Using various packages in the R environment, hospitals receive a monthly visual report on their data among all participating hospitals. Graphical representations are implemented using column diagrams and box plots. Reports currently contain 25 tables and 40 graphs. Benchmark reports are created in R-Studio and exported using Portable Document Format, PDF. Quarterly expert meetings with the heads of participating EDs are currently performed for further improvements. Preparation of external benchmarking reports with R enables a detailed data presentation for participating hospitals and ED managers.

Implementation of a midwifery preceptor program in Sierra Leone: a qualitative evaluation using the Consolidated Framework for Implementation Research.
BMC Glob Public Health

Connell School of Nursing, Boston College, Chestnut Hill, MA, USA.
Background: Sierra Leone has the world's third highest incidence of maternal mortality, with 443 deaths per 100,000 live births. Strengthening the country's midwifery workforce is essential to providing adequate maternal healthcare and reducing preventable perinatal mortality. In support of this goal, we developed and implemented a midwifery preceptor program (MPP) to train experienced midwives to effectively mentor new and student midwives.

Background: Work-related stress is a well-established contributor to mental health decline, particularly in the context of burnout, a state of prolonged exhaustion. Epigenetic clocks, which estimate biological age based on DNA methylation (DNAm) patterns, have been proposed as potential biomarkers of chronic stress and its impact on biological aging and health. However, their role in mediating the relationship between work-related stress, physiological stress markers, and burnout remains unclear.

Department of Neurology, Saarland University, Kirrberger Straße, 66421, Homburg/Saar, Germany.
Background: Alzheimer's disease (AD) patients and animal models exhibit an altered gut microbiome that is associated with pathological changes in the brain. Intestinal miRNA enters bacteria and regulates bacterial metabolism and proliferation. This study aimed to investigate whether the manipulation of miRNA could alter the gut microbiome and AD pathologies.

Background: Survivors of critical illness frequently face physical, cognitive and psychological impairments after intensive care. Sensorimotor impairments potentially have a negative impact on participation. However, comprehensive understanding of sensorimotor recovery and participation in survivors of critical illness is limited.

Department of Gastroenterology and Hepatology, Hangzhou Red Cross Hospital, 208 Huancheng Dong Road, Hangzhou, 310003, Zhejiang Province, China.
Background: The potential association between dietary inflammatory index (DII) and colorectal cancer (CRC) risk, as well as colorectal adenomas (CRA) risk, has been extensively studied, but the findings remain inconclusive. We conducted this systematic review and dose-response meta-analysis to investigate the relationship between the DII and CRC and CRA.
Methods: We comprehensively searched the PubMed, Embase, Cochrane Library, and Web of Science databases for cohort and case-control studies reporting the relationship between DII and CRA, or between DII and CRC, as of 15 July 2025.
