Cognitive flexibility moderates the association between maltreatment and emotion regulation in residential care children of the middle childhood period

The purpose of this study was to examine, in a sample of residential care children, the moderating role of cognitive flexibility in the association between maltreatment and emotion regulation competencies. The sample included 69 children aged 8 to 12 and their group home educator as their primary caretaker. Educators completed questionnaires evaluating child emotion regulation competencies and cognitive flexibility. Child history of maltreatment and sociodemographic data were collected on the basis of the children’s child protective services files. Moderation analyses showed that the effect of child maltreatment on emotion regulation was only present for children with high levels of cognitive flexibility, such that the less children experienced severe maltreatment, the more they showed emotion regulation competencies. Children with low cognitive flexibility displayed lower levels of emotion regulation regardless of their maltreatment history. These results suggest that focusing on cognitive flexibility when intervening with children in residential care could help strengthen their emotion regulation competencies, which may prevent further maladaptive behaviors.
Skin Pigmentation Influence on Pulse Oximetry Accuracy: A Systematic Review and Bibliometric Analysis

Nowadays, pulse oximetry has become the standard in primary and intensive care units, especially as a triage tool during the current COVID-19 pandemic. Hence, a deeper understanding of the measurement errors that can affect precise readings is a key element in clinical decision-making. Several factors may influence the accuracy of pulse oximetry, such as skin color, body temperature, altitude, or patient movement. The skin pigmentation effect on pulse oximetry accuracy has long been studied reporting some contradictory conclusions. Recent studies have shown a positive bias in oxygen saturation measurements in patients with darkly pigmented skin, particularly under low saturation conditions. This review aims to study the literature that assesses the influence of skin pigmentation on the accuracy of these devices. We employed the Preferred Reporting Items for Systematic Reviews and Meta-Analyses (PRISMA) statement to conduct a systematic review retrospectively since February 2022 using WOS, PubMed, and Scopus databases. We found 99 unique references, of which only 41 satisfied the established inclusion criteria. A bibliometric and scientometrics approach was performed to examine the outcomes of an exhaustive survey of the thematic content and trending topics.
Superior Capsular Reconstruction for Irreparable Rotator Cuff Tears: Technique and Associated Considerations

Background: Massive rotator cuff tears lead to superior humeral head translation and may prevent successful repair. Superior capsular reconstruction (SCR) can overcome this by improving the compression and depressor effects of the rotator cuff and joint capsule simultaneously. Indications: SCR is indicated in young, active patients with massive rotator cuff tears or a functional cuff deficiency from a failed previous rotator cuff repair without significant arthritis, articulation of the humeral head with the acromion, or dysfunctional deltoid. Technique Description: During the procedure, repair of the subscapularis is performed using a polydioxanone (PDS) suture shuttling device to pass suture through the subscapularis in an inverted mattress knotless configuration. Posterior infraspinatus tendon fibers are reduced and the tuberosity is abraded and decorticated followed by completion of the partial repair of the posterior cuff. Anchors are placed on the glenoid and articular margins followed by preparation of the dermal allograft with luggage tags medially and perforation laterally. The graft is passed and secured in a double row configuration laterally with apposition of the graft to the remnant, repaired rotator cuff posteriorly. Results: Passive range of motion (ROM) is begun at week 4, followed by progressive active ROM at weeks 6 to 12, and advancement of full ROM and advanced strengthening begun at 3 months. With SCR, a patient can expect maximal strength and function to be regained at 1 year postoperatively. Significant clinical improvement following SCR has been seen in visual analog scale (VAS) and American Shoulder and Elbow Surgeons Shoulder Score (ASES) scores for most patients, although there is a varied degree of return to sport following this procedure. Discussion/Conclusion: Clinical evidence suggests that SCR is a beneficial therapeutic intervention for short to medium term outcomes in younger patients with massive, irreparable rotator cuff tears. More studies are needed to identify the optimal thickness of the graft. Graphical Abstract This is a visual representation of the abstract.
‘I’m me, and I’m Chinese and also transgender’: coming out complexities of Asian-Canadian transgender youth

Abstract The complexities of developing and disclosing multiple, marginalized, minority identities is theoretically recognized by Minority Stress Theory and the concept of intersectionality; however, the experiences of people living at these intersections, such as Asian transgender youth, are under-examined. Consequently, they remain a largely erased community, often excluded from the research and services that are assumed to include them. The present study attempted to ameliorate this erasure by examining the coming out experiences of eight Asian-Canadian transgender youth. Interpretative phenomenological analysis (IPA) was utilized from Minority Stress Theory and intersectional perspectives to advance understanding of their coming out experiences and the contexts that maintain their marginalization. Semi-structured individual interviews elicited three themes: (a) Maintaining Family Cohesion; (b) Experiencing Adultism; and (c) Creating Community. Implications for service provision and future research are discussed with emphasis on attending to their whole personhood, which necessarily includes the individual, their community, and the systemic structures that perpetuate oppression.

Functional plasticity of Capsicum annuum var. glabriusculum through multiple traits

Abstract The diversity of functional traits still has not been studied enough in model plant species, even less so in little-known species. This experiment was carried out under the extreme heat of Sonoran Desert, using shading nets and under conditions where the availability of water and nutrients was not a stress factor. We evaluated how the low, intermediate and high sunlight regimes impact survival and promote multiple alterations on phenological and ecophysiological response of cultivated Capsicum annuum var. glabriusculum plants. Extremely warm temperatures promoted a high heat sum in degrees days throughout plants development. Most plants grown in high sunlight regimes did not survive; under intermediate sunlight regimes survival was high and plants developed vegetative and reproductively; but under low sunlight regimes plants survival was high; however, they developed just vegetatively. Photosynthetic response to light suggests that plants are physiologically acclimated to low and intermediate irradiance, whereas the CO2 assimilation curves suggest contrasting photosynthetic capacity traits. Under the intermediate sunlight regimes, plants strengthened their performance through multiple functional traits (e.g. CO2 and water diffusion traits, photosynthetic capacity, respiration, among others). Consequently, their biomass gain was faster and proportionally higher by 76 % with an investment of 14 % in fruits development. The principal components analysis extracted the main explanatory functional traits: photosynthetic nitrogen allocation, stomatal limitation, mesophyll conductance, Rubisco maximum carboxylation velocity, among others. In conclusion, phenological response and multiple functional traits determine plants acclimation to sunlight regimes and extremely warm temperatures in short term.
Effects of Marble Industry Effluents
on Soil Quality, Growth and Productivity
of Tomato (Lycopersicon esculentum) in District
Swat, Khyber Pakhtunkhwa, Pakistan

Soil and water pollution adversely affect growth and productivity of agri-business oriented crops in Pakistan. There are many crops consumed in Pakistan such as Lycopesicon Esculentum which is a major staple used in District Swat, Khyber Pakhtunkhwa, Pakistan. A greenhouse study was conducted to evaluate the effect of marble effluents on soil pH, water holding capacity (WHC) of soil, seed germination, number of leaves, number of inflorescences, stem girth, root, and shoot length along with their dry biomasses. Interestingly, there was a linear rise in pH of soil with increase in effluents concentration. Likewise, seed germination and root length were also improved with higher concentration of industrial effluents. The study found out no inflorescence at 100% effluent concentration. In contrast, highest inflorescence (6) was recorded at 10% effluent concentration. The earlier ripening of tomatoes occured with the highest concentration of effluents. There were no drastic changes in terms of number of seeds and its germination, while the shoot length was reduced as compared to control group. Significant differences of WHC in soil was found, moreover the maximum WHC was found in 20% treatment. These empirical results indicate that marble industry effluents may degrade the growth and productivity of Lesculentum. The study contributes to a better understanding drained into irrigation In Pakistan, in the province of (KPK) advanced level wastewater treatment are neither available nor economicall viable for for industries Thus, these effluents are drained off into various water bodies resulting in surface/ground water pollution, which endangers biodiversity and lowers agriculture production of marble effluents on growth and productivity of Lycopesicion Esculentum in target area of study to improve agribusiness productivity for tomato while improving envoironmental sustainability.
Three-week hypofractionated radiotherapy in early glottic cancer—a single institution retrospective study

Background Radiotherapy is a standard treatment option for early glottic carcinoma (stage I and II) with a fraction size of 2–2.2 Gy over 5–7 weeks. This study evaluates the outcome and prognostic factors of a 3-week hypofractionated treatment in early glottic malignancy. Materials and Methods The case records of 329 eligible patients with stage I and II glottic carcinoma recorded at the institution from 2003 to 2008 were retrospectively analysed. All patients were treated in a Cobalt-60 machine to a dose of 52.5 Gy in 15 fractions (3.5 Gy/fraction) over 3 weeks. Results Eighty-three percent had stage I disease. The local control rate at 5 years was 91.9%. On univariate analysis, stage I and II patients without subglottic extension had better local control. Disease extension to the subglottis fared poorly on multivariate analysis. After salvage treatment, the 5-year disease-free survival rate was 96.1% and the functional larynx preservation rate was 94.9% for stage I and 83.9% for stage II. The rate of severe complications was 2.1%. Conclusion Comparable results with low morbidity are achievable with a 3-week hypofractionation in early glottic cancers and it offers better patient convenience. Highlights In early glottic cancer, hypofractionated radiation provides excellent local control. Subglottic extension is a poor prognostic factor. 5-year disease-free survival rate of 96.1%. 5-year functional larynx preservation rate of 94.9%. Severe complication rate of 2.1%.
Human Platelet-Rich Plasma Facilitates Angiogenesis to Restore Impaired Uterine Environments with Asherman’s Syndrome for Embryo Implantation and Following Pregnancy in Mice

Asherman’s syndrome (AS) is caused by intrauterine adhesions and inactive endometrium from repeated curettage of the uterine endometrium. AS is a major cause of recurrent implantation failure and miscarriage and is very difficult to treat because of the poor recovery of endometrial basal cells. Platelet-rich plasma (PRP) has abundant growth factors that may induce angiogenesis and cell proliferation. Here, we demonstrate that human PRP (hPRP) significantly enhances angiogenesis to restore embryo implantation, leading to successful pregnancy in mice with AS. In mice with AS, hPRP treatment considerably reduced the expression of fibrosis markers and alleviated oligo/amenorrhea phenotypes. Mice with AS did not produce any pups, but the hPRP therapy restored their infertility. AS-induced abnormalities, such as aberrantly delayed embryo implantation and intrauterine growth retardation, were considerably eliminated by hPRP. Furthermore, hPRP significantly promoted not only the elevation of various angiogenic factors, but also the migration of endometrial stromal cells. It also increased the phosphorylation of STAT3, a critical mediator of wound healing, and the expression of tissue remodeling genes in a fibrotic uterus. PRP could be a promising therapeutic strategy to promote angiogenesis and reduce fibrosis in impaired uterine environments, leading to successful embryo implantation for better clinical outcomes in patients with AS.
Investigating the Behavior of Light-Frame Wood Stud Walls Subjected to Severe Blast Loading

AbstractAn understanding of the behavior of wood stud walls in a region corresponding to hazardous-blowout damage levels is currently lacking. The focus of the current study is on investigating the flexural response of full-scale wood stud walls subjected to pressure-impulse combinations that would yield severe damage levels. Static material properties were determined and used as input in an analytical model that considers the nonlinear behavior of stud-to-sheathing joints, as well as high strain-rate effects. Experimental results showed that premature sheathing failure could occur prior to full flexural stud response, and that sheathing panel debris could be generated. The use of thicker sheathing and screws shifted the failures to the studs, while decreasing the amount of debris. Welded wire mesh was successfully used as a reinforcement of the sheathing or as a catcher system while maintaining the residual axial capacity of the studs. A single-degree-of-freedom material-predictive model was successfully.
Screening for head and neck tumors in patients with esophageal squamous cell carcinoma and vice versa: a nationwide survey among medical specialists

Background and study aims Retrospectively, minimally 5% of patients with esophageal squamous cell carcinoma (ESCC) and 11 % with head and neck squamous cell carcinoma (HNSCC) in Western countries developed a second primary tumor (SPT). SPT screening in ESCC and HNSCC patients is not implemented routinely in daily practice in many Western countries. This study aimed to assess medical specialist knowledge and opinions regarding screening for head and neck SPTs (HNSPTs) in ESCC patients and vice versa in the Netherlands. Methods A nationwide survey among gastroenterologists and head and neck (HN) surgeons was conducted between December 2020 and March 2021. The survey consisted of 27 questions and focused on knowledge of medical specialists of the prevalence and opinions toward implementing screening for HNSPTs in ESCC patients and vice versa. Results One hundred twenty-eight gastroenterologists (20.5 %) and 31 HN surgeons (50.0 %) completed the survey. The expected median prevalence of HNSPTs in ESCC was 7.0 % (interquartile range [IQR]: 5.0–15.0) among gastroenterologists and 5.0 % (IQR:3.0–8.0) among HN surgeons. For ESPTs in HNSCC, the expected median prevalence was 9.5 % (IQR: 5.0–12.0) among gastroenterologists and 4.0 % (IQR: 2.0–5.0) among HN surgeons. Screening for HNSPTs and ESPTs was considered promising by 35.2 % and 39.6 %, respectively, which increased to 54.7 % of the specialists after providing incidence data on SPTs. Of the HN surgeons, 41.3 % felt they were as capable as gastroenterologists of performing esophageal screening. Conclusions This Dutch nationwide survey revealed a lack of knowledge and different perspectives among specialists about screening to detect SPTs in ESCC and HNSCC patients. Adequate education seems essential to increase awareness among specialists and improve SPT detection, independent of the need for implementation of screening for SPTs in ESCC and HNSCC patients.
Risk Factors for Groin Pain in Male High School Soccer Players Undergoing an Injury Prevention Program: A Cluster Randomized Controlled Trial

Little is known about the risk factors for developing groin pain in high school soccer players. Therefore, the purpose of the study is to investigate the risk factors for developing inguinal pain in high school soccer players who are undergoing an injury prevention program. A cluster randomized controlled trial was conducted on 202 high school soccer players. Players were allocated to either group A (3 schools, 66 players) receiving the Copenhagen adduction exercise (CAE) alone, or group B (2 schools, 73 players) receiving the CAE and Nordic hamstrings exercise, or group C, the control group without any intervention (2 schools, 63 players). Hip range of motion (ROM) and strength measures were assessed prior to a groin injury prevention program and used in univariate and multivariate analysis to predict development of groin pain. Logistic regression analysis identified that hip abduction ROM and eccentric adductor strength of the dominant leg were factors in the development of groin pain. Increased abduction ROM and decreased eccentric adductor muscle strength of the dominant leg were risk factors for the development of groin pain.
Are There Betel Quid Mixtures Less Harmful than Others? A Scoping Review of the Association between Different Betel Quid Ingredients and the Risk of Oral Submucous Fibrosis

Oral submucous fibrosis (OSF) is a potentially malignant condition of the oral cavity characterized by progressive fibrosis of the submucosal tissues. OSF is typically associated with the use of betel quid (BQ), a chewing package made of natural products (e.g., areca nut, betel leaves), with or without smokeless tobacco. BQ ingredients contain pro-carcinogenic bioactive compounds, but also potentially protective biomolecules, and we have shown recently that the chemical properties of different BQ recipes vary, which may explain the unequal prevalence of OSF and oral cancer in BQ users in different geographical regions. Hence, this scoping review was aimed at evaluating the existing literature regarding different BQ compounds and their association with OSF. The repository of the National Library of Medicine (MEDLINE/PubMed), medRxiv databases, Google scholar, Baidu scholar, CNKI, and EBSCO were used to search for publications that investigated the association between BQ chewing and OSF up to November 2021. The search terminology was constructed using the keywords “betel quid” and “oral submucous fibrosis”, and their associated terms, with the use of Boolean operators. The search was conducted under Preferred Reporting Items for Systematic Reviews and Meta-Analyses extension for Scoping Reviews (PRISMA-ScR) guidelines, together with clear inclusion and exclusion criteria. The review showed that the risk of developing OSF varied between different BQ recipes, and that chewing BQ mixtures containing betel inflorescence (BI) significantly increased the risk of OSF, as did the addition of tobacco. Conversely, the use of betel leaf in the mixture was likely to be protective, which may be due to the presence of polyphenols. Although further research is needed to determine the effect of individual BQ ingredients in the development of OSF, our pilot results provide the scope and rationale for informing future chemopreventive strategies for OSF and oral cancer in BQ chewers.
Related Factors and a Threshold of the Maximum Neuron-Specific Enolase Value Affecting the Prognosis of Patients with Aneurysmal Subarachnoid Hemorrhage

Background The prognosis of patients with subarachnoid hemorrhage is influenced by many factors. Neuron-specific enolase (NSE) is a biological marker of neurological damage. This study aimed to determine the related prognostic factors and whether or not the maximum NSE value (NSEmax) has a threshold between good and poor prognosis in aneurysmal subarachnoid hemorrhage (aSAH). Methods A total of 259 patients admitted following aSAH were treated by appropriate methods. Initial neurological severity was evaluated by using the initial Glasgow coma scale and Hunt–Hess grades. NSE plasma concentration was measured during the patient's stay in the neurosurgical intensive care unit, and NSEmax was selected for further study. The primary endpoint of the study was Glasgow outcome score (GOS), which was dichotomized as poor outcome (GOS 1–3) or good outcome (GOS 4–5) at discharge. Results A poor outcome of patients with aSAH at discharge was associated with mild hypothermia treatment, Hunt–Hess grade, rehemorrhagia, neurogenic pulmonary edema, and pneumonia, which were independent risk factors affecting the prognosis of patients. The best threshold of the maximum value of NSE for poor or good prognosis was 26.255 μg/L (specificity 0.908). Conclusions Poor neurological score, pulmonary complications, aneurysm rerupture, and mild hypothermia indicate a poor prognosis. NSEmax>26.255 μg/L is an independent predicting factor of poor neurological outcome at discharge after aSAH. This threshold value could help clinicians make the appropriate decision and prognosis.
