Abstract
AIMS AND METHOD We aimed to co-design an intervention optimising the benefits of online arts and culture for mental health in young people for subsequent testing in a trial. Co-design followed the double diamond phases of design, discover, define, develop and deliver. RESULTS Navigating the views of all co-designers to produce a testable resource demanded in-depth understanding, and frequent iterations in multiple modalities of the theoretical basis of the intervention, amplification of youth voice and commitment to a common goal. CLINICAL IMPLICATIONS Co-design with a broad range of collaborators with a shared vision was valued by young co-designers and produced an effective intervention. Co-design allowed the theoretical basis to be followed and refined to create an engaging, practical and testable web experience, aiming to optimise the mental health benefits of online arts and culture for young people in a randomised controlled trial.

Abstract
OBJECTIVES This study aimed to understand young people's perception of the potential utility of arts and culture, focusing on online access, for supporting their mental health. DESIGN A qualitative interview study. SETTING Online. PARTICIPANTS Participants were selected by purposeful sampling from an online survey of arts and culture for mental health and well-being. METHOD Individual semi-structured interviews were conducted from 30 July 2020 to 9 September 2020. Rich interview data were analysed using reflexive thematic analysis. RESULTS Thirteen participants aged 18-24 who were socio-demographically diverse and varied in their use of online arts and culture (OAC) and in their level of psychological distress were interviewed. Six themes, 'Characteristics of other activities', 'Online engagement', 'Human connection', 'Mechanisms of impact', 'Mental health outcomes' and 'Engagement optimisation', were identified along with subthemes. Participants identified that online engagement had some advantages over in-person engagement and benefits were greater with familiarity and regular use. Participants described that human connection was the feature of OAC most likely to benefit mental health and emphasised the importance of representation. Mechanisms included improving perspective, reflection, learning, escapism, creativity, exploration and discovery. Outcomes were described as the disruption of negative thought patterns, lifting of mood and increased feelings of calm and proactivity. CONCLUSIONS This study demonstrates that young people have a critical level of insight and understanding regarding their mental health and ways in which it might be improved. These findings can be used to optimise the mental health benefits of OAC in an engaging and acceptable way for young people. These methodologies could be applied to other types of community resources for mental health.

Abstract
AIMS AND METHOD To gain a deeper understanding of the use of online culture and its potential benefits to mental health and well-being, sociodemographic characteristics and self-reported data on usage, perceived mental health benefits and health status were collected in an online cross-sectional survey during COVID-19 restrictions in the UK in June-July 2020. RESULTS In total, 1056 people completed the survey. A high proportion of participants reported finding online culture helpful for mental health; all but one of the benefits were associated with regular use and some with age. Reported benefits were wide-ranging and interconnected. Those aged under 25 years were less likely to be regular users of online culture or to have increased their use during lockdown. CLINICAL IMPLICATIONS There may be benefits in targeting cultural resources for mental health to vulnerable groups such as young adults.

Abstract
Background: Infants younger than 6 months of age are at high risk for contracting pertussis because of not being fully vaccinated. The Advisory Committee on Immunization Practices (ACIP) recommends vaccinating all pregnant women with tetanus toxoid, reduced diphtheria toxoid, and acellular pertussis vaccine (Tdap) between 27 and 36 weeks to offer passive immunity to the infant to help protect them until they are able to receive the full pertussis series. Objective: To assess and compare compliance with the 2013 ACIP recommendation of vaccinating pregnant women with Tdap at 27 to 36 weeks’ gestation in 2 obstetric clinics. Methods: This cross-sectional, retrospective chart review evaluated Tdap vaccine compliance in a random sample of obstetric patients from October 2013 to September 2014. The primary outcome evaluated the proportion of patients who received Tdap between 27 and 36 weeks’ gestation. Secondary outcomes included the proportion of patients who received Tdap at any point in pregnancy and within 30 days postpartum. Results: The charts of 573 patients were reviewed, and 237 met inclusion criteria. For the primary outcome, 142 patients (59.9%) received the Tdap vaccine. Overall, 156 patients (65.8%) received Tdap at some point during the pregnancy. Factors associated with receiving the Tdap vaccination were insurance status, prenatal care risk level and site of prenatal care, receipt of the influenza vaccine, and preterm labor in the current pregnancy. Conclusion: The Tdap vaccine rate was 65.8%, with 59.9% of patients receiving the vaccine within the recommended ACIP timeframe. Further education, improvements in documentation, and chart reminders are needed to enhance administration.

Abstract
A descriptive case report of the labour and delivery management of a 28-year-old woman who presented with congenitally corrected transposition of great arteries, dextrocardia, systemic ventricular dysfunction and junctional tachycardia. Patients with congenitally corrected transposition have a thin-walled morphological right ventricle as the systemic circulatory pump. The stress of increased cardiac output can lead to congestive heart failure, systemic atrioventricular valve regurgitation and arrhythmias. We used minimally invasive continuous cardiac output monitoring, fluid balance optimization and good maternal pain control to prevent decompensation and achieve vaginal delivery with a good maternal and neonatal outcome.

Abstract
The positive impact of psychotherapy upon the mental health problems of older people is increasingly accepted. However little attention has been paid to the role of hope in working therapeutically with older adults. Three relevant bodies of literature, namely adult psychotherapy, hope in older adulthood, and coping with chronic and terminal illness, provide a starting point for examining the therapeutic uses of hope. However, it is argued that these literatures cannot provide a sufficiently comprehensive conceptualisation of hope in psychotherapy with elders. Firstly, it is considered that hope in therapy is directly affected by key experiences of ageing, namely: facing physical and/or cognitive deterioration and facing death. Also, these three bodies of literature have tended to dichotomise hope as either beneficial and adaptive or dysfunctional and maladaptive. A developmental perspective is used to critique this dichotomy and a clinical framework is provided which examines the role and utility of hope in older adult psychotherapy from a more integrated viewpoint embedded in the client's life history. The framework is comprised of three types of 'hope work': 'facilitating realistic hope,' 'the work of despair' and 'surviving not thriving'. Suggestions are made about how this work may be carried out and with whom.

Abstract
The human Caco-2 cell line spontaneously differentiates in culture to epithelial cells possessing intestinal enterocytic-like properties. These cells possess a proton-dependent dipeptide transport carrier that mediates the uptake of the cephalosporin antibiotic cephalexin (Dantzig, A.H. and Bergin, L. (1990) Biochim. Biophys. Acta 1027, 211-217). In the present study, the uptake of cefaclor was examined and found to be sodium-independent, proton-dependent, and energy-dependent. The initial rate of D-[3-phenyl-3H]cefaclor uptake was measured over a wide concentration range; uptake was mediated by a single saturable transport carrier with a Km of 7.6 mM and a Vmax of 7.6 nmol/min per mg protein and by a non-saturable component. Uptake was inhibited by dipeptides but not amino acids. The carrier showed a preference for the L-isomer. The effect of the presence of a 5-fold excess of other beta-lactam antibiotics was examined on the initial rates of 1 mM cefaclor and 1 mM cephalexin uptake. Uptake rates were inhibited by the orally absorbed antibiotics, cefadroxil, cefaclor, loracarbef, and cephradine and less so by the parenteral agents tested. The initial uptake rates of both D-[9-14C]cephalexin and D-[3-phenyl-3H]cefaclor were competitively inhibited by cephalexin, cefaclor, and loracarbef with Ki values of 9.2-13.2, 10.7-6.2, and 7.7-6.4 mM, respectively. Taken together, these data suggest that a single proton-dependent dipeptide transport carrier mediates the uptake of these orally absorbed antibiotics into Caco-2 cells, and provide further support for the use of Caco-2 cells as a cellular model for the study of the intestinal proton-dependent dipeptide transporter.

Abstract
The transport of the orally absorbed cephalosporin, cephalexin, was examined in the human epithelial cell line, Caco-2 that possesses intestinal enterocyte-like properties when cultured. In sodium-free buffer, the cells accumulated 1 mM D-[9-14C]cephalexin against a concentration gradient and obtained a distribution ratio of 3.5 within 180 min. Drug uptake was maximal when the extracellular pH was 6.0. Uptake was reduced by metabolic inhibitors and by protonophores indicating that uptake was energy- and proton-dependent. Kinetic analysis of the concentration dependence of the rate of cephalexin uptake showed that a non-saturable component (Kd of 0.18 +/- 0.01 nmol/min per mg protein per mM) and a transport system with a Km of 7.5 +/- 2.8 mM and a Vmax of 6.5 +/- 0.9 nmol/min per mg protein were responsible for drug uptake. Uptake was competitively inhibited by dipeptides. The transport carrier exhibited stereospecificity for the L-isomer of cephalexin. Drug uptake was not affected by the presence of amino acids, organic anions, 4-acetamido-4'-isothiocyanostilbene-2,2'-disulfonic acid or 4,4'-diisothiocyano-2,2'-disulfonic stilbene. Therefore, Caco-2 cells take up cephalexin by a proton-dependent dipeptide transport carrier that closely resembles the transporter present in the intestine. Caco-2 cells represent a cellular model for future studies of the dipeptide transporter.

Abstract
A transport carrier for cephalexin, a cephalosporin antibiotic, was identified in a human intestinal cell line, HT-29. Uptake via the carrier was inhibited by dipeptides, phe-gly, gly-pro, carnosine, and cefaclor, a close drug analog. Uptake was unaffected by the presence of amino acids. The pH optimum for uptake was 6.2. Drug uptake was not dependent on the presence of sodium and was insensitive to metabolic inhibitors. The efflux of cephalexin was stimulated by extracellular carnosine, indicating counter-transport. Taken together, drug uptake is mediated by a dipeptide transport carrier and not by an amino acid transport carrier. This is the first demonstration of the carrier in an established cell line.
