Background/objectivesAntimicrobial resistance (AMR) is a major worldwide concern with severe implications for public health, contributing to almost 5 million deaths in 2019. One of the main causes of AMR is overuse and misuse of antibiotics, which can be addressed by increasing awareness and educating the public on this issue. Studies have demonstrated the potential of social media to educate the public and influence behaviour. Instagram's unique features, such as its visual nature and user-friendly interface, make it well-suited for exploring health behaviours and disseminating information on various health topics. Research shows 65.4% of young adults (18–36 years old) use Instagram as their main source of information.MethodsThis study examined AMR posts from Instagram from January 1, 2017 to July 15, 2023. In total, 4,606 images and videos were initially extracted which corresponded to 3,261 Instagram posts. After data cleaning, a final dataset of 574 posts were categorised into 6 message categories which were humour, shock/disgust/fear, personal stories/statements, educational/informative, opportunistic and advocacy.ResultsThe most common post category was educational/informative (78%) and humour was the least common (2%). We also looked at the average engagement (likes) with these posts, the educational/informative category received the most likes per post (mean of 30). The fear/shock/disgust category received 25 likes per post, humour and personal stories/statements 18 and 21 respectively.ConclusionsOur study shows Instagram has hardly been used for AMR interventions. An important population group of young adults who use Instagram as their main source of information, is missed in public health messaging on AMR.

The immunopathogenesis of type 1 diabetes mellitus is associated with T-cell autoimmunity. To be fully active, immune T cells need a co-stimulatory signal in addition to the main antigen-driven signal. Abatacept modulates co-stimulation and prevents full T-cell activation. Therefore, this multicenter, double-blind, randomized, controlled trial evaluated the effect of abatacept in subjects with recently diagnosed type 1 diabetes mellitus. Subjects were randomly assigned in a 2:1 ratio to receive either the experimental treatment of 30 minute intravenous infusion of 10 mg/kg of CTLA-4 Ig (abatacept) or an intravenous saline solution (placebo). The treatments were administered on days 1, 14, 28, and then every 28 days for a total of 27 doses over 700 days. All subjects received intensive diabetes management with the goal of achieving excellent glycemic control. 2 hour mixed meal tolerance tests (MMTT) were performed at 3, 6, 12 and 18 months. Four hour MMTTs were performed at baseline and at 24 months. Safety and efficacy were assessed over a two year follow-up period.

ABSTRACT The aim of this study was to evaluate the pedagogical strategy of Paulo Freire’s culture circles in adherence to self-care in patients with Diabetes Mellitus. A randomized clinical test was performed with 72 participants, allocated into Intervention Group (IG) and Control Group (CG).The IG participated in six circles to discuss and unveil the generative themes: diet, medication, diabetes complications and foot care; the CG participated only in routine consultations. The change provided by the circles after three months of intervention was evaluated through the Diabetes Self-Care Activity Questionnaire, fasting capillary glycemia, systolic and diastolic arterial pressure, body mass index and abdominal circumference. The IG showed a statistically significant increase in self-care adherence to healthy diet, physical exercise, glycemic monitoring and examination and drying of the feet and reduced fasting capillary glycemia (211.6 ± 102.5 to 181.9 ± 66.3 mg/dL), systolic arterial pressure 125(120-140) to 120(117.5-130 mmHg) and abdominal circumference (96.3 ± 9.5 to 95.5 ± 9.1 cm), while in the CG there were no changes during the study. The culture circles, as an educational approach, were able to improve the self-care adherence practices of patients with diabetes and provide improvement in some cardiovascular risk parameters.
