As a result of the amendment to the act on promotion of employment of persons with disabilities the statutory employment rate for handicapped people was raised from 2.0% to 2.2% in April 2018. By 2021, it will be raised again by 0.1% to 2.3%. The number of jobs for handicapped people has also been increasing recently, and it is predicted that the number of jobs for people with developmental disorders will also increase. From this perspective, it is predicted that occupational safety and health engineers, such as health officers, will have more opportunities to give safety and health education to workers with developmental disorders. People with developmental disorders have various characteristics that are different from those with an ordinary type of development, and occupational health and safety engineers need to understand their characteristics when providing education for them. This report summarizes the characteristics of people with developmental disorders that occupational safety and health engineers should know when educating them.

Aims: This study aims to develop and evaluate a rapid and high-multiplex pathogen detection method for clinical and food specimens to address the ongoing public health threat of foodborne infections and the limitations of conventional culture-based diagnostics.
Methods And Results: The foodborne bacteria (FBB) assay integrates multiplex PCR, T7 exonuclease hydrolysis, and a suspension bead array to simultaneously detect 16 genes from 13 major foodborne bacteria. Analytical performance was evaluated using reference strains, while diagnostic performance was assessed using clinical and food samples.

African Swine Fever (ASF), caused by the highly contagious African swine fever virus (ASFV), poses a significant threat to domestic and wild pigs worldwide. Despite its limited host range and lack of zoonotic potential, ASF has severe socio-economic and environmental consequences. Current control strategies primarily rely on early detection and culling of infected animals, but these measures are insufficient given the rapid spread of the disease.

Importance: There is an unmet need for long-term, safe, effective, and hormone-free treatments for menopausal symptoms, including vasomotor symptoms (VMS) and sleep disturbances.
Objective: To evaluate the 52-week efficacy and safety of elinzanetant, a dual neurokinin-targeted therapy, for treating moderate to severe VMS associated with menopause.
Design, Setting, And Participants: OASIS-3 was a double-blind, placebo-controlled, randomized phase 3 clinical trial that was conducted at 83 sites in North America and Europe from August 27, 2021, to February 12, 2024, and included postmenopausal women aged 40 to 65 years who were seeking treatment for moderate to severe VMS (no requirement for a minimum number of VMS events per week).
