A clinical cognitive examination was performed in 1196 individuals (557 men, 639 women; response rate 99.4%). The examination was conducted by a psychiatric nurse, a psychiatrist, or a medical doctor, with a total duration of approximately 25 min. The examination comprised tests of word fluency (animals), naming 12 objects, copying five figures, finger agnosia, orientation, selective attention, understanding proverbs, ideational apraxia, memory (remembering 12 objects, word memory list, two last prime ministers), ability to follow instructions. Cognitive function was rated in accordance with a Swedish version of the Mini-Mental State Examination (MMSE) [30 (link)], the Gottfries Bråne Steen-scale (GBS) [31 (link)], as well as global ratings. Specific assessments relevant for dementia diagnosis, such as recent and remote memory, semantic memory, concentration, apraxia, spoken language, language comprehension, word finding difficulties, and other intellectual functions were performed, as well as assessments with the Clinical Dementia Rating scale (CDR) [32 (link)], and Alzheimer’s Disease Assessment Scale-Cognitive (ADAS-COG) [33 (link)]. Dementia was diagnosed following the Diagnostic and Statistical Manual of Mental Disorders DSM III-R [34 ] criteria as closely as possible using information from the clinical cognition examination and information from key informants (see below). We also assessed the neurocognitive domains described in DSM-5 (complex attention, executive function, learning and memory, language, perceptual-motor, and social cognition) [29 ].
A more detailed psychometric cognitive examination that included questions about subjective memory as well as testing of multiple cognitive domains was performed in 1173 individuals (547 men, 626 women; response rate 97.5%). The examination was conducted by research staff members, all trained by a psychologist, with a total duration of approximately 60 min. The subjective part included questions concerning participant’s everyday memory, experiences of memory decline, satisfaction with own memory, everyday memory problems, memory training, and engagement in cognitively demanding recreational activities, such as chess, bridge, crossword-puzzles, and reading habits. The cognitive test battery included several cognitive measurements intended to cover a broad range of different cognitive abilities. Memory in Reality (MIR) [35 ], Supra-span memory test (BUS II) [36 (link)], and Thurstone’s Picture Memory [37 ] measured memory abilities. Digit Span Forward and Backward test [38 ] measured short term memory and executive functioning. Figure Identification—Psif [39 ] measured mental speed, and Figure Logic (SRB 2) [39 ] measured inductive reasoning. Controlled Oral Word Association—FAS (COWA-FAS) [40 ] measured verbal fluency and Block Design (Koh’s Block Test) [38 ] measured spatial ability. The Clock Test [41 (link)] was originally developed for dementia screening and measured a wide range of cognitive abilities including executive functioning [42 (link)]. Most of the tests are part of the Dureman and Sälde (1959) psychometric test battery [43 ] that was widely used in Sweden at the start of the H70 study 1971–72.

In this study, we used data from The Maastricht Study, an observational, prospective, population-based cohort study. The rationale and methods have been described previously [22 (link)]. In brief, the study focuses on the aetiology, pathophysiology, complications and comorbidities of type 2 diabetes mellitus and is characterised by an extensive phenotyping approach.
Eligible participants were individuals aged between 40 and 75 years and living in the southern part of the Netherlands. Participants were recruited through mass media campaigns and from the municipal registries and the regional Diabetes Patient Registry via mailings. Recruitment was stratified according to known type 2 diabetes status for reasons of efficiency. This study included cross-sectional data from 3,451 participants who completed the baseline survey between November 2010 and September 2013. After excluding participants who did not receive an accelerometer due to logistics (n = 673), whose accelerometer measurement failed (n = 136) or who had other missing data (n = 145), a total of 2,497 participants were included in the present analyses.
The study was approved by the institutional medical ethical committee (NL31329.068.10) and the Minister of Health, Welfare and Sports of the Netherlands, on the basis of the Health Council’s opinion (permit 131088-105234-PG). All participants gave written informed consent.

The CHL Community Randomized Trial is an environmental intervention trial in five jurisdictions: Alaska, AS, CNMI, Guam, and Hawaii. The Freely Associated States of Micronesia, which includes FSM, the Republic of Palau, and RMI, will conduct elements of the CHL sampling framework and measurements to provide prevalence data, but are not engaged in the community intervention trial. The CHL Program was designed to monitor and evaluate the prevalence of obesity in the region through the baseline and follow-up data, while testing the intervention for impact by comparing intervention with non-intervention communities.
The community intervention activities are quantitatively and qualitatively evaluated [31 (link)] in Alaska, AS, CNMI, Guam, and Hawaii to determine the impact of the intervention. The intervention was developed through blending findings from a community engagement process that allowed the community to identify and prioritize strategies [23 ] and review of evidence based literature.
Institutional Review Board approvals from the University of Alaska Fairbanks, University of Guam, and University of Hawai'i at Manoa were attained prior to data collection. The American Samoa Community College and the Northern Marianas College, and the institutional partners in the Freely Associated States of Micronesia ceded their Institutional Review to the University of Hawai'i at Manoa.
In addition, approvals for working with teachers and parents of Head Start (a US federally funded program that educates preschool-age children and their families) and government-sponsored Early Childhood Education programs in the Freely Associated States of Micronesia were received in coordination with the program directors and/or boards, when appropriate. Other local level agreements included approvals from the chiefs (matai) and ministers (faifeau) of participating American Samoan villages and the mayors in participating villages in Guam.

In addition to the RHS and MMRA assessments, the water quality of the Trojanka River was also assessed. The data came from the state monitoring conducted by Regional Environmental Protection Inspectorate (REPI) in Poznań. Sampling locations for water quality analysis are marked in Fig 1 . The analyses used microbiological indicators such as Coliform bacteria, Escherichia Coli and Enterococci. For the indicators mentioned above, a valuation scale based on the division into classes was used (Table 1 ). For enterococci and E. coli, the Regulation of the Minister of Health of 8 April 2011 on the supervision of water quality in the bathing area and in the place used for bathing was used [26 ]. For coliform bacteria, the Regulation of the Minister of the Environment of February 11, 2004 on the classification for presenting the status of surface and ground waters, the method of monitoring and the method of interpreting the results and presenting the status of these waters was used [27 ], due to the lack of this parameter in the later regulation.
The analyses included nutrients such as total nitrogen and total phosphorus in the water. The score evaluation was based on the Regulation of the Minister of the Environment of February 11, 2004, on the classification for presenting the status of surface and ground waters, the method of monitoring and the method of interpreting the results and presenting the status of these waters [27 ]. The current Regulation of the Minister of Maritime Economy and Inland Navigation of October 11, 2019, on the classification of ecological status, ecological potential and chemical status and the method of classification of the state of surface water bodies, as well as environmental quality standards for priority substances [28 ], covers only very good and good classification. The other classes do not stand out. Therefore, an older, 5-step classification was adopted for the analyses, which facilitated the performance of the scoring evaluation (Table 1 ). Dissolved oxygen was also analysed according to the Regulation of the Minister of the Environment of February 11, 2004 [27 ], which included a 5-level classification of surface waters.
The multiplicity of exceeding the norm for microbiological and physico-chemical parameters was calculated based on the reference annual average concentrations in relation to class II (good condition—in accordance with the EU Water Framework Directive).

The almost total absence of political actors is perhaps the most relevant finding of our analysis. As a matter of fact, only five out of nine of the considered issues report the presence of political actors: work, migration, environment, tax, and LGBTQIA+. Moreover, the category “political actors” always takes the last position of the players, ranked for the frequency of occurrences: In fact, political actors appear three times in work-related results, three times in the migration dataset, and one time each for the remaining searches—environment, tax, and LGBTQIA+.
Nonetheless, we can observe that political actors have a prominent role with respect to their position in the page result ranking. In work, for instance, the first result output by the query aiutiamo i lavoratori (let us help the workers) is the official website of the Democratic Party (Partito Democratico), while the website of Pietro Ichino, senator for the Democratic Party, appears as the first result for the query “lotta al precariato” and third when searching for “riduzione dell'orario di lavoro a parità di salario.”
In addition to websites, social media pages were found in the datasets: The official Facebook page of Nicola Zingaretti, former Democratic Party secretary, appears as the first result when querying for Italia più umana e sicura. The Twitter account of Matteo Salvini and the Twitter account of his party, Lega Salvini Premier, feature in the second and third position on the page result for stop agli sbarchi. The three remaining occurrences of political actors are as follows: The official Facebook page of current Prime Minister Giorgia Meloni, who appears as a third result for the query no al matrimonio tra persone dello stesso sesso (topic LGBTQIA+); the Five Star Movement official website, second result of the Google search ridurre l'impatto del trasporto merci (environment); and Massimo Ungaro's website (Italia Viva party), in third position for the query abbassare tasse sul lavoro (Taxes).
Looking at the optimization probability level, we can observe that—with the sole exception of the website of the Democratic Party—the rest of the political actors have been classified as being probably optimized. In particular, Matteo Salvini Twitter account, Lega Salvini Premier Twitter account, and Zingaretti's Facebook page have a high probability of having implemented SEO techniques (i.e., are classified as “most probably optimized”).

Unlike with macro-distancing behaviour and contact rates, there is no simple mathematical framework linking change in precautionary micro-behaviours to changes in non-household transmission probabilities. We must therefore estimate the effect of precautionary micro-behaviour on transmission via case data. We implicitly assume that any reduction in local-to-local transmission potential that is not explained by changes to the numbers of non-household contacts, the duration of household contacts, or improved disease surveillance is explained by the effect of precautionary micro-behaviour on non-household transmission probabilities.
Whilst it is not necessary to use ancillary data to estimate the effect that precautionary micro-behaviour has at its peak, we use behavioural survey data to estimate the temporal trend in precautionary micro-behaviour, in order to estimate to what extent adoption of that behaviour has waned and how that has affected transmission potential.
We therefore model (a time-varying index of change relative to baseline of transmission probability per non-household contact, seeEquation (12) ), as a function of the proportion of the population adhering to precautionary micro-behaviours. We consider adherence to the ‘1.5 m rule’ as indicative of this broader suite of behaviours due to the availability of data on this behaviour in a series of weekly behavioural surveys beginning prior to the last distancing restriction being implemented Department of the Prime Minister and Cabinet, 2020 . We consider the number of respondents in region on survey wave commencing at time replying that they ‘always’ keep 1.5 m distance from non-household members, as a binomial sample with sample size . We use a generalised additive model to estimate , the proportion of the population in region responding that they always comply as a the intervention stage, smoothed over time. Intervention stages are defined as periods of a continuous state of stay-at-home order, and this state thus switches each time a stay-at-home order is started, ended, or significantly changed. This state switching allows the model to react to sudden changes in compliance behaviour when orders are made or rescinded. We assume that the temporal pattern in the initial rate of adoption of the behaviour is the same as for macro-distancing behaviours — the adoption curve estimated from the mobility model. In other words, we assume that all macro-distancing and precautionary micro-behaviours were adopted simultaneously around the time the first population-wide restrictions were put in place in March and April 2020. However we do not assume that these behaviours peaked at the same time or subsequently followed the same temporal trend. The model for the proportion complying with this behaviour is therefore:
where is intervention state in region , and is a smoothing function over time .
Given , we model as a function of the degree of precautionary micro-behaviour relative to the peak:
where is the peak of compliance, or maximum of , and is inferred from case data in the main model.
