Article Abstract
Individuals involved with the criminal legal system (CLS) face significant challenges upon release from carceral settings, particularly those with substance use disorders (SUD), including opioid overdose rates considerably greater than the general population. Recovery homes play a pivotal role in providing a supportive and stable living environment for individuals reentering the community. However, little is known about recovery homes' ability to assist residents in meeting court-ordered requirements and facilitating connections to community resources. Findings from focus groups conducted with staff from four Level 3 recovery homes as part of a larger comparative case study show recovery home staff are crucial to the long-term success of CLS-involved individuals. Staff leverage their lived experience to create a safe, trusting environment, channeling residents' energy into structured recovery plans that build incremental stability. They provide in-house programming, connect residents to community resources, assist with probation/parole conditions, and shield against situations that might hinder recovery. This study highlights the crucial role of recovery home staff in bridging the gap between courts and CLS-involved residents, supporting long-term recovery and reentry. We recommend future research to explore intra-agency models where staff expertise can drive system-level changes for sustained recovery and reintegration.

Long-term recovery of sensorimotor functions and prediction of participation in survivors of critical illness: a prospective cohort study.
J Intensive Care

German Center for Vertigo and Balance Disorders, Ludwig-Maximilians-Universitat (LMU), University Hospital Grosshadern, Munich, Germany.
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.

Background: Idiopathic normal pressure hydrocephalus (iNPH) predominantly manifests with gait disturbances, yet clinical assessments are vulnerable to confirmation bias, particularly post-shunt surgery. Blinded video evaluations are a method to enhance objectivity in gait assessment, but their reliability has never been systematically investigated. The aim was to evaluate the inter-rater reliability of blinded gait assessments in iNPH patients and to investigate how these assessments correlate with the Hellström iNPH scale and patient-reported health status following shunt surgery.

Background: Little is documented on key community-based One Health (OH) approach implementation, pro-activeness and effectiveness of interactions and strategies against Mpox outbreak public health emergency in international concern (PHEIC) in various African countries in order to stamp out the persisting Mpox outbreak threat and burden. Prioritizing critical community-based interventions and lessons learned from previous COVID-19, Mpox, Ebola, COVID-19, Rift Valley Fever and Marburg virus outbreaks revealed critical shortcomings in funding, surveillance, and community engagement that plague public health initiatives across the continent. The article provides critical insights and benefits of community-based One Health approaches implementation against Mpox outbreak management in Africa.

Background And Aim: Synthetic dyes in the textile industry pose risks to human health and environmental safety. The current study aims to examine the efficacy of a novel esterase derived from an endophyte fungus in decolorizing diverse dyes, focusing on its production, purification, optimization, and characterization.
Results: Trichoderma afroharzianum AUMC16433, a novel fungal endophyte with esterase-producing ability, was first detected from the cladodes of Opuntia ficus indica by ITS-rRNA sequencing.

Background: Surgical resection is the cornerstone for early-stage non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC), with lobectomy historically standard. Evolving techniques have spurred debate comparing lobectomy and segmentectomy. This study analyzed early postoperative patient-reported symptoms and functional status in patients with early NSCLC undergoing either procedure.
