Abstract Chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD) is frequently undiagnosed among ever-smokers. We evaluated the cost-effectiveness of targeted COPD case-finding using the PUMA questionnaire followed by spirometry among ever-smokers aged 50 years and older in Singapore. A cohort Markov model compared two strategies: PUMA-based case-finding (PUMA score ≥4) followed by spirometry versus no case-finding, over a lifetime horizon from the healthcare payer perspective, with 3% annual discounting.

Background The application of synthetic insecticides is the primary means of controlling Aedes mosquitoes in Malaysia, but the efficacy of this method is undermined by the evolution of resistance. Aedes albopictus as one of the dominant and competent arboviral vectors has an elusive insecticide resistance status in different geographical regions of Northern Peninsular Malaysia.

Abstract Very preterm infants miss the peak in-utero supply of omega-3 docosahexaenoic acid (DHA) and omega-6 arachidonic acid (AA), and are thought to receive low amounts after birth. In a randomized controlled trial of 1077 babies born <29 weeks’ gestation we assessed the DHA and AA concentrations in whole blood before and after (36 weeks’ post menstrual age, PMA) enteral emulsion intervention with 60 mg/kg/d of DHA compared with no DHA soy oil.
