Exploring Goal Flexibility and Mental Health in University Students: A Qualitative Approach

University students face obstacles while pursuing their goals, and these challenges risk undermining their mental health. Goal flexibility has been identified as beneficial for promoting well-being and protecting mental health; however, the relationship between goal flexibility and mental health challenges remains underexplored. 

Long term lung health in children: new emerging threats and preventive strategies

The long-term consequences of early adverse exposures are well known but is becoming clear that early means not just in pregnancy but also in at least the two preceding generations. Furthermore, there are new existential threats to long term respiratory health, some of which have been presented at the INSPiRED meeting in Bologna and are reviewed in this manuscript.

Dose-dependent hepatotoxicity of hydrogen peroxide in HepG2 cells and its modulation by CYP450 induction

In vitro liver models combined with metabolomics approaches offer promising alternatives to animal testing in toxicology. In this study, we investigated concentration-dependent effects of hydrogen peroxide on the intra- and extracellular metabolome of HepG2 cells using 1H Nuclear Magnetic Resonance spectroscopy.

Exercise enjoyment and depressive symptoms for university students in a mental health service: An intensive repeated measures study

We explored how university students’ mental and physical health changed during a 12-week on-campus exercise program. When students enjoyed exercise more than usual or more than others, they reported better mental and physical health. These findings highlight the importance of prioritising enjoyment of exercise when designing exercise programs for student wellbeing. 

Modelling the impact of long-acting monoclonal antibody, maternal vaccine and hybrid programs of RSV immunisation in temperate Western Australia

Two RSV immunisations products: a maternal vaccine, Abrysvo, and a long-acting monoclonal antibody, nirsevimab, both designed to prevent RSV illness in infants, have recently become available. Modelling evidence is required to inform how to optimally use these products in immunisation programs to reduce the burden of RSV in young children.
