“…The factors driving the emergence of henipaviruses can be better understood, and more effective strategies can be outlined to prevent and control their spread, if we recognize the interconnections between human, animal, and environmental health and foster collaboration among the various disciplines. Aligning with the larger aims of supporting a healthy world, this holistic approach has several positive effects, including improvements in the public health dimension, biodiversity preservation, and ecological sustainability [ [38] , [39] , [40] , [41] , [42] ].…”

“…The above glimpse of the diverse education setting only necessitates that a solution in the provision of quality education as envisioned in the fourth sustainable development agenda, the local capacity, resources, and available support must be considered. Risk of a possible similar situation must be considered [8]. Post-pandemic education services must be developed with adaptability that enables a switch between a group/ classroom setting and individual setting.…”

Reimagining Education - The Role of E-Learning, Creativity, and Technology in the Post-Pandemic Era

View full text Add to dashboard Cite

The post-Pandemic Era leaves us with the question of whether to pursue the move toward digital education or step back into face-to-face education. The reasons for the debate can vary from the lack of infrastructure to stringent national qualification agencies. Regardless, the pandemic has taught us to be adaptable. As such, progress must be made in both formats, digital and conventional education. In moving e-learning forward while coping with diverse needs of global education across geographical, age, ethnicity, and socioeconomic boundaries, the inclusion of read, watch, and listen (RWL) modalities becomes essential. Successful deliveries of different modalities lie in creativity and creative use of technology that is driven by the achievement of targeted learning outcomes. This chapter attempts to discuss the experience of creating RWL modalities by embracing the universal design, and other creative use of technology to develop twenty-first century learners.

“…At present, the transmission of COVID-19 continues to be escalated, posing a serious threat to public health. Zoonotic diseases play a role in facilitating the global spread of COVID-19 during the pandemic 1 – 4 . Concurrently, regional wars and conflicts not only result in the mass migration of virus carriers, but also contribute to lower vaccination coverage 5 .…”

Background: Although the coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19) pandemic has exerted potential impact on patients with glioblastomas (GBMs), it remains unclear whether the survival and its related risk factors of GBM patients would be altered or not during the period spanning from pre- to post- COVID-19 pandemic era. This study aimed to clarify the important issues above. Methods: Two observational cohorts were utilized, including the nationwide American cohort from the Surveillance, Epidemiology, and End-Results (SEER) and the Chinese glioblastoma cohort (CGC) at our institution during 2018-2020. Demographics, tumor features, treatment regimens and clinical outcomes were collected. Cox regression model, competing risk model, and subgroup and sensitivity analysis were used to dynamically estimate the survival and its relevant risk factors over different diagnosis years from the pre- (2018 and 2019) to post-COVID-19 (2020) pandemic. Causal mediation analysis was further adopted to explore the potential relationship between risk factors and mortality. Results: This study included 11321 GBM cases in SEER and 226 GBM patients in CGC, respectively. Instead of the diagnostic years of 2018-2020, the prognostic risk factors, such as advanced age, bilateral tumor and absence of comprehensive therapy (surgery combined with chemoradiotherapy), were identified to persistently affect GBM survival independently during the period from 2018 to 2020 in the SEER cohort (all P < 0.05). In CGC, lack of comprehensive therapy for GBM patients were restated as survival risk factors during the same timeframe. Causal mediation analysis showed that the effect of comprehensive therapy on all-cause mortality played a determinant role (direct effect value -0.227, 95% confidence interval -0.248 to -0.207), which was partially mediated by age (9.11%) rather than tumor laterality. Conclusions: As the timeframe shifted from pre- to post-COVID-19 pandemic, survival of GBM patients remained stable, yet advanced age, bilateral tumors, and passive treatment continuingly impacted GBM survival. It is necessary to optimize the comprehensive treatment for GBM patients even in the post-pandemic era.
