Storytelling and advice: Constructing the lived experience of eating disorders online

Online peer support groups encourage individuals to tell their stories and to find validation and emotional comfort when reading about the stories of others. Coincidently, lived experiences are the kind of knowledge applied to solicit and to deliver peer advice. This study examines the relationship between storytelling and advice in an English speaking online forum that provides support for those with an eating disorder (ED). The results revealed a range of different types of narratives within the data, from more elaborate testimonials of the ED and the process of recovery to brief personal passages responding to the first poster. The Labovian narrative structure appeared in a number of the first stories, whereas two main configurations, contingent upon the kind of response offered, emerged in second stories: parallel assessments (or snapshots) and success stories. Parallel assessments constituted self-centred stories and did not include any advice provision. Success stories, instead, became an essential component of the advice-giving act since they were remedial. The solution proposed by responders to the problem posed by the first poster was organized either to offer tips (that is, a series of practical recommendations to address a specific ED or recovery issue) or to deliver thoughtful advice through a resolutive story that introduced the state of recovery as a real possibility. Both parallel assessments and resolutive stories included contrasting resonances in relation to the first story. Resolutive stories encompassed resonating elements whose meanings were transformed and (re)signified from the positioning of a subject moving towards recovery. However, snapshots echoed specific key expressions from the initiating post. The goal was to display alignment with the first teller by describing a similar I-perspective experience. Taken together, the individual small stories contributed to the co-construction of a multiple-lived story with regard to the ED in the online community.
First Real-World Experience With Bigfoot Unity: A 6-Month Retrospective Analysis

The Bigfoot Unity Diabetes Management System, a smart pen cap system cleared by the U.S. Food and Drug Administration in May 2021, incorporates continuous glucose monitoring data, real-time glycemic alerts, and clinician-directed dose recommendations. This study analyzed real-world clinical outcomes data for an initial cohort (n = 58, from 13 clinics) managing multiple daily injection insulin therapy using the pen cap system for 6 months. We examined glycemic control, including hypoglycemia events and interaction with and use of the pen cap system. In a cohort mainly consisting of adults with type 2 diabetes and an average age of 62 years, the results demonstrate close adherence to established glycemic targets, including a relatively short amount of time spent in the hypoglycemic range.
Kindergarten teachers’ knowledge of and beliefs in the influence of music and movement on children’s self-regulation

Un número creciente de estudios indica que la exposición temprana a la música y el movimiento (M&M) impacta positivamente en la autorregulación infantil. Sin embargo, se ha prestado poca atención a lo que las y los docentes de infantil saben y creen sobre la relación entre M&M y la autorregulación, y menos aún a cómo sus propias experiencias de M&M se relacionan con sus conocimientos y creencias. El presente estudio investiga dichos temas utilizando datos de encuestas de 306 maestros de infantil de Hong Kong. Se realizaron análisis descriptivos, de correlación y pruebas t de muestras independientes. La mayoría de participantes creían poseer un alto nivel de comprensión sobre el tema, en particular aquellas con experiencia en M&M. Dichas participantes tenían creencias más sólidas de que M&M fomenta la autorregulación infantil, específicamente las habilidades de coordinación motora, el control de impulsos y el manejo emocional. Concluimos que el conocimiento y las creencias de las y los docentes de infantil sobre el papel de la M&M para apoyar la autorregulación están influenciados por sus propias experiencias de M&M. A mayor experiencia, más profundo será su entendimiento sobre cómo la M&M contribuye a las habilidades de autorregulación infantil. La principal implicación es la necesidad de exponer aún más a las y los docentes de Infantil a las experiencias de aprendizaje de M&M, ya sea de manera formal o informal.
What Is Non-Inevitable?

In this paper, I contend that the use of the notion of non-inevitability on the part of many social constructionists and non-social constructionists alike is either vague or relies too heavily on intuition. I propose two readings, namely the Dependence and Alterability Readings, to provide a principled criterion for determining whether and to what extent something may be argued to be non-inevitable. By utilizing the examples of gender and human emotion as case studies, my ultimate goals herein are not to provide a wholly foolproof criterion to delimit the non-inevitable, but to proffer one attempt at fleshing out a structured analysis at what non-inevitability might amount to and, also, to highlight the importance of why the notion of non-inevitability must be précised in order for social constructionist or non-social constructionist programs to hold weight.
Rejoinder: Statistical Significance and the Dichotomization of Evidence

including frequentist and NHST-based inference. As has been intensively discussed elsewhere, we are likely to be increasingly working with extensive volumes of fine-scale data on the systems we study. It has also been noted that “big data needs big models” (Gelman 2014). These big models, including models derived frommachine learning methods, as well as flexible procedures deriving from classical statistics such as semiparametric, empirical likelihood, dimension reduction, and localized methods, can be powerful tools for improving the properties of NHST. Recent work on high dimensional inference is providing new tools to build such models while not saturating the models to the point where parameter estimates become meaningless. However, most applied researchers and many statisticians are not using these new tools to their full potential. The findings ofMcShane andGalmake clear that in terms of communication, training, andmethods development, there is still a lot of room to grow.
The application of heliospheric imaging to space weather operations: Lessons learned from published studies

The field of heliospheric imaging has matured significantly over the last 10 years—corresponding, in particular, to the launch of NASA's STEREO mission and the successful operation of the heliospheric imager (HI) instruments thereon. In parallel, this decade has borne witness to a marked increase in concern over the potentially damaging effects of space weather on space and ground‐based technological assets, and the corresponding potential threat to human health, such that it is now under serious consideration at governmental level in many countries worldwide. Hence, in a political climate that recognizes the pressing need for enhanced operational space weather monitoring capabilities most appropriately stationed, it is widely accepted, at the Lagrangian L1 and L5 points, it is timely to assess the value of heliospheric imaging observations in the context of space weather operations. To this end, we review a cross section of the scientific analyses that have exploited heliospheric imagery—particularly from STEREO/HI—and discuss their relevance to operational predictions of, in particular, coronal mass ejection (CME) arrival at Earth and elsewhere. We believe that the potential benefit of heliospheric images to the provision of accurate CME arrival predictions on an operational basis, although as yet not fully realized, is significant and we assert that heliospheric imagery is central to any credible space weather mission, particularly one located at a vantage point off the Sun‐Earth line.
Datafication Markers: Curation and User Network Effects on Mobilization and Polarization During Elections

Social media platforms are crucial sources of political information during election campaigns, with datafication processes underlying the algorithmic curation of newsfeeds. Recognizing the role of individuals in shaping datafication processes and leveraging the metaphor of news attraction, we study the impact of user curation and networks on mobilization and polarization. In a two-wave online panel survey (n = 943) conducted during the 2021 German federal elections, we investigate the influence of self-reported user decisions, such as following politicians, curating their newsfeed, and being part of politically interested networks, on changes in five democratic key variables: vote choice certainty, campaign participation, turnout, issue reinforcement, and affective polarization. Our findings indicate a mobilizing rather than polarizing effect of algorithmic election news exposure and highlight the relevance of users’ political networks on algorithmic platforms.

GRAVITATIONAL COLLAPSE AND FRAGMENTATION OF MOLECULAR CLOUD CORES WITH GADGET-2

The collapse and fragmentation of molecular cloud cores is examined numerically with unprecedentedly high spatialresolutions,usingthepubliclyreleasedcodeGADGET-2.Astemplatesforthemodelcloudsweusethe‘‘standard isothermal test case’’ in the variant calculated by Burkert & Bodenheimer in 1993 and the centrally condensed, Gaussian cloud advanced by Boss in 1991. A barotropic equation of state is used to mimic the nonisothermal collapse.Weinvestigateboththesensitivityof fragmentationtothermalretardationandthelevelof resolutionneededby smoothed particle hydrodynamics (SPH) to achieve convergence to existing Jeans-resolved, finite-difference (FD) calculations. We find that working with 0.6Y1. 2 million particles, acceptably good convergence is achieved for the standard test model. In contrast, convergent results for the Gaussian-cloud model are achieved using from 5 to 10 million particles. If the isothermal collapse is prolonged to unrealistically high densities, the outcome of collapse for the Gaussian cloud is a central adiabatic core s urrounded by dense trailing spiral arms, which in turn may fragment in the late evolution. If, on the other hand, the barotropic equation of state is adjusted to mimic the rise of temperature predicted by radiative transfer calculations, the outcome of collapse is a protostellar binary core. At least, during the early phases of collapse leading to formation of the first protostellar core, thermal retardation not only favors fragmentation but also results in an increased number of fragments, for the Gaussian cloud.
The antibiotic bead pouch – a useful technique for temporary soft tissue coverage, infection prevention and therapy in trauma surgery

Abstract Soft tissue defects resulting from trauma and musculoskeletal infections can complicate surgical treatment. Appropriate temporary coverage of these defects is essential to achieve the best outcomes for necessary plastic soft tissue defect reconstruction. The antibiotic bead pouch technique is a reasonable surgical approach for managing temporary soft tissue defects following adequate surgical debridement. This technique involves the use of small diameter antibiotic-loaded bone cement beads to fill the dead space created by debridement. By applying antibiotics to the bone cement and covering the beads with an artificial skin graft, high local dosages of antibiotics can be achieved, resulting in the creation of a sterile wound that offers the best starting position for soft tissue and bone defect reconstruction. This narrative review describes the rationale for using this technique, including its advantages and disadvantages, as well as pearls and pitfalls associated with its use in daily practice. In addition, the article provides a comprehensive overview of the literature that has been published since the technique was introduced in surgical practice.
VLT/SINFONI OBSERVATIONS OF EUROPA: NEW INSIGHTS INTO THE SURFACE COMPOSITION

We present new insights into Europa’s surface composition on the global scale from linear spectral modeling of a high spectral resolution data set acquired during a ground-based observation campaign using SINFONI, an adaptive optics near-infrared instrument on the Very Large Telescope (ESO). The spectral modeling confirms the typical “bullseye” distribution of sulfuric acid hydrate on the trailing hemisphere, which is consistent with Iogenic sulfur ion implantation. However, the traditional hypothesis of the presence of sulfate salts on the surface of the satellite is challenged as Mg-bearing chlorinated species (chloride, chlorate, and perchlorate) are found to provide improved spectral fits. The derived global distribution of Mg-chlorinated salts (and particularly chloride) is correlated with large-scale geomorphologic units such as chaos and darker areas, thus suggesting an endogenous origin. Based on the 1.65 μm water-ice absorption band shape and position, the surface temperature is estimated to be in the range 110–130 K, and water ice is found to be predominantly in its crystalline state rather than amorphous. While amorphous water ice exhibits a strong correlation with the expected intensity of the Ionian plasma torus bombardment, crystalline water ice is instead more associated with distinct geomorphological units. Endogenous processes such as jets and ice heating due to active geology may explain this relationship. Otherwise, no evidence of a correlation between grain size for the water ice and the sputtering rate has been detected so far.
Coded caching schemes for Flexible Memory Sizes

Coded caching scheme has recently become quite popular in the wireless network due to the efficiency of reducing the load during peak traffic times. Recently the most concern is the problem of subpacketization level in a coded caching scheme. Although there are several classes of constructions, these schemes only apply to some individual cases for the memory size. And in the practice it is very crucial to consider any memory size. In this paper, four classes of new schemes with the wide range of memory size are constructed. And through the performance analyses, our new scheme can significantly reduce the level of subpacketization by decreasing a little efficiency of transmission in the peak traffic times. Moreover some schemes satisfy that the packet number is polynomial or linear with the number of users.
Online Learning in Cultural Studies in Post-Pandemic Era: A Case of International Students’ Experience in Universiti Teknologi Malaysia

This article addresses several issues relating to international students’ experiential learning via online learning application in cultural studies at Universiti Teknologi Malaysia (UTM) during the post-pandemic era. The main objective of this study is to analyse the challenges encountered by international students in the ‘Malaysian Society and Culture’ course, a UTM preparatory course offered for newly registered post-graduate international students. The course was designed to expose new UTM post-graduate students, particularly international students to the uniqueness of the Malaysian multi-ethnic, multi-religious, and multi-cultural society. This study employed a qualitative method using written semi-structured open-ended interviews in the e-learning platform. In relation to this, 15 international students who registered for the course in semester 1, 2021/2022 academic session and semester 2, 2021/2022 session were selected using purposive sampling method. Thematic analysis was employed in analysing the data. The findings of this study had shown that the challenges observed included the absence of direct experiential learning, internet accessibility, time zone difference, adjustment problem, and accessibility to online resources. The results also provided valuable insights in relation to the application of online learning in the context of cultural studies. This is pertinent as far as the educational and sociological body of knowledge is concerned.
Outcomes of Long-Term Follow-up of Patients Receiving Antithyroid Medication for Hyperthyroidism due to Graves' Disease

Background: Thyrotropin (also known as thyroid stimulating hormone (TSH)) receptors antibodies (TRAb) activate thyroid follicular cells in the autoimmune condition known as Graves' hyperthyroidism, which causes thyrotoxicosis and swelling of the thyroid gland. Objective: Using a thorough retrospective cohort design, this research assessed the effectiveness of antithyroid drugs (ATDs) and risk variables linked to the recurrence of Graves' hyperthyroidism. Methods: With enough follow-up data, we evaluated 2100 individuals who had just received a Graves' hyperthyroidism diagnosis. Evaluation of the treatment results of the subjects and risk factors for recurrence-free survival, particularly alterations in thyrotropin receptors antibodies. Results: The participants' average age was 44.8 years, and 64% of them were females. After using ATD for a median of 22.9 months (interquartile range (IQR) 16.9-34.4), 1450 participants were given the option to discontinue the medication. Initial remission ratio was 56.6%. 95.24% of participants completed the second round of ATD therapy after the initial recurrence and the remission ratio was 56.6%. 7.14% of participants required surgery, and 10.9% received radioactive iodine treatment, throughout the course of a median follow-up duration of 67 months. About 29.7% of patients were still receiving ATD medication for chronic lower-dose maintained or recurring illness. Male gender, being younger (<45 years old), and fluctuating or smoldering of TRAb levels were all distinct risk indicators for the first recurrence following ATD therapy. Conclusions: ATD therapy is a viable choice for both chronic condition and the first therapy of Graves' hyperthyroidism. The individual risk indicators of recurring must be determined to identify the effective therapeutic duration for ATD therapy.
Modeling of Risk Factors of Childhood Stunting Cases in Malang Regency using Geographically Weighted Regression (GWR)

Stunting is one of the fundamental problems in Indonesia's human development, with complex risk factors such as inadequate environmental sanitation. This study aims to conduct an analysis and mapping of spatially correlated sanitation risks on the prevalence of stunting among toddlers in Malang Regency, Indonesia. The field observations were conducted in 390 villages of urban and rural areas in Malang Regency. The secondary data of weighing toddlers in 2020 were collected from Malang Regency Health Office. The data included the identity of the residents and the history of the toddlers, while data from monthly program reports were collected from the Central Bureau of Statistics of Malang Regency. Furthermore, the study applied one and eight variables of Y and X. The Y variable was the number of stunting case toddlers, while X included the percentage of access to safe drinking water, percentage of access to permanent hygienic latrines, the topography of the region, percentage of Integrated Healthy Centre access, percentage of Exclusive Breastfeeding, Population density, ODF (Open Defecation Free) village and percentage of Integrated Healthy Centre Empowerment. Modeling the case of childhood stunting with the spatial regression method using Geographically Weighted Regression can be considered a sound approach. The result showed that the distribution model of risk factors causing toddler stunting showed a spatial autocorrelation tendency with a clustered pattern in the area. The risk factors that were found to be spatially correlated with the incidence of stunting in children under five years of age in Malang district included access to proper drinking water (X1), access to latrines (X2), access to integrated health services (X3), exclusive breastfeeding coverage (X4), regional topography (X5), population density (X6), and empowerment of integrated health services (X8). However, the ODF (X7) did not show any correlation with stunting cases in the area. Spatial diversity and geographic variation affect the distribution pattern of risk factors causing stunting in Malang Regency. Therefore, stunting control with specific and sensitive interventions should be based on regional and local characteristics.
Examining the Impact of Interactive Smart Board Use on Technical Students’ Learning Outcomes in Nigerian Higher Educational Institutions

The study was carried out to determine the impact of Interactive Smart Board (ISB) usage on technical students’ learning outcomes (achievement and motivation). The study adopted a quasi-experimental design and was carried out at First Technical University, Ibadan. The study's population consisted of 276 students enrolled in GST 004, with a sample size of 90. GST 004 was taught using ISB, and a pre-test and post-test were performed. The mean, standard deviation, t-test, and p-value were used to record and interpret the results. A questionnaire was also distributed to assess pupils' motivation. The results showed improved achievement scores and increased levels of motivation by the students who were taught using ISB, compared with those students who use the traditional method only. Results obtained from a pre-test/post-test revealed that students in the experimental group (taught using ISB) had a higher mean achievement score (23.06) and a higher mean gain score (15.27) than the control group (taught using the traditional method; mean achievement score 9.92, mean gain score 7.34). Further results from a motivation questionnaire showed that the experimental group had significantly higher scores than the control group on all three subscales of the questionnaire (Procedural Skills Rating, Interest/Enjoyment, and Perceived Choice), with the highest difference being for the Procedural Skills Rating subscale. The overall motivation score for the experimental group was also much higher than that of the control group. These findings suggest that ISB technologies have the potential to transform educational practices in Nigeria as the country strives to provide students with a quality education that meets the best global standards while also recasting itself as an innovative, efficient, and adaptable economy capable of competing in our modern world.
