    Abstract Objective: To assess the use of Medicare‐subsidised health services by women with and without dementia. Methods: Data from women of the 1921–26 birth cohort of the Australian Longitudinal Study on Women's Health were linked to various administrative datasets to ascertain dementia diagnosis. The use of subsidised general practitioner (GP) services (75+ health assessments [HAs], chronic disease management meetings [CDMs], multidisciplinary case conferences [MCCs]) and specialist and allied health services between 2000 and 2013 for these women was analysed using longitudinal GEE models. Results: A total of 9,683 women were included with 1,444 (15%) women identified as having dementia. Compared to women with no dementia indication, women with dementia had more yearly non‐emergency GP attendances (short [30 minutes] IRR=1.11 [1.04, 1.19]) and fewer specialist attendances (IRR=0.91 [0.85, 0.97]) and were more likely to have an emergency GP attendance (OR=2.29 [2.05, 2.57]). There were no significant differences in the odds of having either a HA or CDM or using allied health services for women with and without dementia indicators. Conclusions: The overall use of services designed to improve the prevention and coordination of the care of older people with chronic conditions was low. Women with dementia were no more likely to access these services. Implications for public health: There is underuse of some primary and allied healthcare services designed for people with complex chronic conditions. These could be better used by women with dementia to improve the management of complex comorbidities (e.g. CDMs), to prevent the onset of disability (e.g. physiotherapy), and enhance needs assessment and service access (e.g. HAs)

    Raw mass spectrometry Thermo data from "Systematic approach for dissecting the molecular mechanisms of transcriptional regulation in bacteria"

    This contains all Thermo .raw files. The LacI target purification experiments were performed on a nanoflow LC system, EASY-nLC II coupled to a hybrid linear ion trap Orbitrap Classic mass spectrometer equipped with a Nanospray Flex Ion Source (Thermo Fisher Scientific). All other measurements were performed on a hybrid ion trap-Orbitrap Elite mass spectrometer (Thermo Fisher Scientific), which provided greater detection sensitivity and other fragmentation techniques as described. The Orbitrap was operated in data-dependent acquisition mode to automatically alternate between a full scan (m/z=400–1,800) in the Orbitrap (resolution 120,000) and subsequent 5 MS/MS scans also acquired in Orbitrap with 15,000 resolution. The MS/MS spectra were acquired for the top 5 ions alternating between higher collision dissociation (HCD) and electron transfer dissociation (ETD) fragmentations that are well suited for higher charge peptides. Higher collision dissociation was performed at a normalized collision energy of 30% and electron transfer dissociation reaction time was set to 100 msec.Related Publication: Systematic approach for dissecting the molecular mechanisms of transcriptional regulation in bacteria Nathan Belliveau Caltech Proceedings of the National Academy of Science 2018-05-04 https://doi.org/10.1073/pnas.1722055115 engContact person: Rob Phillips [email protected]

    Young carers in receipt of Carer Payment and Carer Allowance 2001 to 2006: characteristics, experiences and post-care outcomes

    No full text
    This paper aims to provide a better understanding of the circumstances of young people (aged under 25 years) who receive transfer payments to support them in providing ‘informal’ care to people with disabilities and the frail aged. A specific motivation of the research was to examine the extent to which young carers are reliant on income support, both while caring and post-care, and their education participation.Author: J.
