3 million distinct individuals. Our evaluation of this linkage suggests that the linkage was of high quality (1) the median match probability-or likelihood of a match being true-among all accepted pairs was 0.9999 (IQR 0.9999-1.0000); and (2) the false match rate-or proportion of accepted pairs that were false matches-was 0.0063.
The resulting NJ-SHO warehouse is one of the most comprehensive and rich longitudinal sources of injury data to date. The warehouse has already been used to support numerous studies and is primed to support a host of rigorous studies in the field of injury prevention.

Hypoxic-ischaemic encephalopathy (HIE) remains a leading cause of neonatal mortality and neurodisability. We aimed to determine the incidence of HIE and management patterns against national guidelines.
Retrospective cohort study using the National Neonatal Research Database.
Neonatal units in England and Wales.
Infants 34-42 weeks gestational age (GA) with a recorded diagnosis of HIE.
Incidence of HIE, mortality and treatment with therapeutic hypothermia (TH) were the main outcomes. Temporal changes were compared across two epochs (2011-2013 and 2014-2016).
Among 407 462 infants admitted for neonatal care, 12 195 were diagnosed with HIE. 8166 infants ≥36 weeks GA had moderate/severe HIE, 62.1% (n=5069) underwent TH and mortality was 9.3% (n=762). Of infants with mild HIE (n=3394), 30.3% (n=1027) underwent TH and 6 died. In late preterm infants (34-35 weeks GA) with HIE (n=635, 5.2%), 33.1% (n=210) received TH and 13.1% (n=83) died. Between epochs (2011-2013 vs 2014-2016), mortality decreased for infants ≥36 weeks GA with moderate/severe HIE (17.5% vs 12.3%; OR 0.69, 95% CI 0.59 to 0.81, p<0.001). Treatment with TH increased significantly between epochs in infants with mild HIE (24.9% vs 35.8%, p<0.001) and those born late preterm (34.3% vs 46.6%, p=0.002).
Mortality of infants ≥36 weeks GA with moderate/severe HIE has reduced over time, although many infants diagnosed with moderate/severe HIE do not undergo TH. Increasingly, mild HIE and late preterm infants with HIE are undergoing TH, where the evidence base is lacking, highlighting the need for prospective studies to evaluate safety and efficacy in these populations.

Recent neuroimaging evidence suggests, however, that activity in brain regions associated with anticipatory affect may not only predict individual choice, but also forecast aggregate behavior out-of-sample. Thus, in two experiments, we specifically tested whether anticipatory affective brain activity in healthy humans could forecast aggregate changes in stock prices. Using functional magnetic resonance imaging, we found in a first experiment (n = 34, 6 females; 140 trials/subject) that nucleus accumbens activity forecast stock price direction, whereas anterior insula (AIns) activity forecast stock price inflections. In a second preregistered replication experiment (n = 39, 7 females) that included different subjects and stocks, AIns activity still forecast stock price inflections. Importantly, AIns activity forecast stock price movement even when choice behavior and conventional stock indicators did not (e.g., previrecast next-day stock price changes-even when behavior did not. These findings challenge traditional assumptions of market efficiency by implying that neuroimaging data might reveal "hidden information" capable of foreshadowing stock price dynamics.
Identifying those individuals requiring medical care is a basic tenet of the pandemic response. Here, we examine the COVID-19 community triage pathways employed by four nations, specifically comparing the safety and efficacy of national online 'symptom checkers' used within the triage pathway.
A simulation study was conducted on current, nationwide, patient-led symptom checkers from four countries (Singapore, Japan, USA and UK). 52 cases were simulated to approximate typical COVID-19 presentations (mild, moderate, severe and critical) and COVID-19 mimickers (eg, sepsis and bacterial pneumonia). The same simulations were applied to each of the four country's symptom checkers, and the recommendations to refer on for medical care or to stay home were recorded and compared.
The symptom checkers from Singapore and Japan advised onward healthcare contact for the majority of simulations (88% and 77%, respectively). The USA and UK symptom checkers triaged 38% and 44% of cases to healthcare contact, respectively. Both the US and UK symptom checkers consistently failed to identify severe COVID-19, bacterial pneumonia and sepsis, triaging such cases to stay home.
Our results suggest that whilst 'symptom checkers' may be of use to the healthcare COVID-19 response, there is the potential for such patient-led assessment tools to worsen outcomes by delaying appropriate clinical assessment. The key features of the well-performing symptom checkers are discussed.

AM 095 pleuropneumoniae infection, but the role of IFN-γ during the infection is still obscure. In this study, an IFN-γ-/- mouse infection model was established, and bacterial load, levels of inflammatory cytokines, and types of neutrophils in the lungs were studied at different times post-A. pleuropneumoniae infection. We found that wild-type (WT) mice were more susceptible to A. pleuropneumoniae than IFN-γ-/- mice. At 6 h postinfection (hpi), the expression of interleukin 18 (IL-18) and IL-1β in the lungs of IFN-γ-/- mice was significantly increased compared to WT mice. The bacterial load and levels of inflammatory cytokines (IL-1β and IL-6) of IFN-γ-/- mice were significantly reduced at 12 hpi compared to WT mice. After an initial loss, the numbers of lung polymorphonuclear (PMN)-I cells dramatically increased in the lungs of IFN-γ-/- but not WT mice, whereas PMN-II cells continually decreased.
