Staff attitudes, beliefs and responses towards self-harm: a systematised literature review
Authors: Akinola Pat , Rayner Gillian
Published: February 2022

Introduction/Aims

Self-harm is a growing issue and remains a complex phenomenon in contemporary society. Understanding this behaviour may present challenges to staff providing care and support to patients who self-harm. There is an absence of a detailed review on staff attitudes, beliefs and responses towards self-harm. The aim of this review was to explore and critically appraise research on how staff attitudes impact on care provision.

Methods

Electronic databases were searched and relevant literature were critically analysed to gather evidence to address this review.

Results

This review identified lack of training, staff support and limited resources as contributory factors to negative attitudes and hostility towards self-harm patients.

Conclusions

Reasons for self-harm may be misconstrued, resulting to unhelpful responses and patients being ascribed stigmatising labels. Understanding factors that contribute to these unhelpful responses allows for the development of core strategies that enhances effective care.

The trend of percutaneous and open surgical procedures for peripheral arteriovenous malformations in the National Health Service England
Authors: Arasakumar DRB , Brookes J , Hamilton G , Tsui J , Lim CS
Published: February 2022

Introduction

This study aimed to assess the trend of percutaneous and open surgical procedures for peripheral arteriovenous malformations (AVMs) performed in NHS hospitals in England between 2012 and 2018.

Methods

Hospital Episode Statistics (HES) is a freely available data warehouse that represents the whole population of England served by the NHS. Data from the HES database was obtained and analysed for all hospital episodes between 2012 and 2018 for the total number and trend of ‘primary diagnosis’, and ‘primary procedures and interventions’ identified for peripheral AVMs.

Results

Over the period studied, there was an increase in the total number of admissions for peripheral AVMs; total primary diagnosis increased from 2242 to 2857 per year. Open surgery remained more commonly performed than percutaneous procedures throughout the studied period. However, the overall percentage of primary procedures and interventions being percutaneous in this period increased from 29.8% to 41.0% per year. The increase in the number of percutaneous procedures per year seemed to occur in both children (from 43 to 124) and adults (from 408 to 492) over the course of the study period.

Conclusions

This study concluded that open surgery remained the most commonly performed primary procedure for peripheral AVMs, although there was an increasing trend for percutaneous procedures in NHS hospitals in England. The increase in the number and percentage of percutaneous procedures for peripheral AVMs was likely to have significant resource implications for the provision of care for patients with peripheral AVMs in NHS hospitals.

Dadas as necessidades dos usuários e a grande quantidade de informaçãodisponível, uma enorme quantidade de métodos tem sido proposta com o objetivo degerar resultados cada vez melhores em diversas atividades, tais como recuperação,classificação e recomendação de informação. Neste contexto, um fator de grandeimportância são as métricas de avaliação dos métodos e o modo como são comparadasas suas eficácias. (Ferri et. al. 2009; Yilmaz & Robertson, 2010). Assim, a corretaavaliação dos resultados e a comparação da qualidade de diferentes sistemas têm sidoáreas que atraem a atenção da comunidade científica. Em recuperação da informação(RI), este processo normalmente baseiaseem: (i) construção de bases de dados; (ii)definição de tarefas a serem realizadas sobre esta base; (ii) execução de tarefas seguindodiferentes métodos; (iii) avaliação dos resultados usando as métricas escolhidas; e porfim, (iv) o comparativo dos métodos.Atualmente, para efetuar o comparativo de sistemas usando métricas de eficácia,pesquisadores necessitam utilizar um conjunto de ferramentas para mensurar eficácia,realizar análise estatística destes valores e construir modelos visuais para apresentaçãodestes dados. Uma outra grande dificuldade está relacionada à visualização dosresultados da análise de eficácia que, em geral, demanda a construção manual demodelos comparativos.Este trabalho foi realizado com o intuito de facilitar a análise, compreensão ecomparação dos resultados de um sistema, utilizando modelos onde o usuário nãoprecisa se preocupar com os parâmetros utilizados na avaliação.

Precise laser linewidth measurement by feature extraction with
short-delay self-homodyne
Authors: Huang Shihong , Wan Minggui , Wu Jiayang , Lu Dunke , Zhang Bingzhi , Zheng Yanhua , Liu Cuihong , Fang Xiaohui
Published: February 2022

We propose a precision measurement method of laser linewidth based on short-delay
self-homodyne, using the second peak-valley difference (SPVD) feature
of the coherent power spectrum to fit laser linewidth. The SPVD model
of the self-homodyne coherent envelope spectrum was established.
One-to-one correspondence among the values of SPVD, the delay length,
and the laser linewidth was determined theoretically and through
simulations, while the reliability and stability of the method was
verified experimentally. By comparing the detected results, it is
found that the fitted laser linewidth obtained by the self-homodyne
system is closer to its true value than that obtained by the
self-heterodyne system. Hence, the simpler structure of the
short-delay self-homodyne coherent envelope laser linewidth
measurement method proposed is expected to substitute the previous
laser linewidth measurement method, including complex short-delay
self-heterodyne coherent envelope laser linewidth measurement method
and traditional self-homodyne/heterodyne laser linewidth measurement
method, to achieve more precise laser linewidth value.
Imaging and characterization of transitions in biofilm morphology via anomalous diffusion following environmental perturbation
Authors: Choi Honggu , Zaki Farzana R. , Monroy Guillermo L. , Won Jungeun , Boppart Stephen A.
Published: February 2022

Microorganisms form macroscopic structures for the purpose of environmental adaptation. Sudden environmental perturbations induce dynamics that cause bacterial biofilm morphology to transit to another equilibrium state, thought to be related to anomalous diffusion processes. Here, detecting the super-diffusion characteristics would offer a long-sought goal for a rapid detection method of biofilm phenotypes based on their dynamics, such as growth or dispersal. In this paper, phase-sensitive Doppler optical coherence tomography (OCT) and dynamic light scattering (DLS) are combined to demonstrate wide field-of-view and label-free internal dynamic imaging of biofilms. The probability density functions (PDFs) of phase displacement of the backscattered light and the dynamic characteristics of the PDFs are estimated by a simplified mixed Cauchy and Gaussian model. This model can quantify the super-diffusion state and estimate the dynamic characteristics and macroscopic responses in biofilms that may further describe dispersion and growth in biofilm models.
Socioeconomic predictors of COVID-19-related health disparities among United States workers: A structural equation modeling study
Authors: Capasso Ariadna , Kim Sooyoung , Ali Shahmir H. , Jones Abbey M. , DiClemente Ralph J. , Tozan Yesim
Published: February 2022

The COVID-19 pandemic has disproportionately impacted the physical and mental health, and the economic stability, of specific population subgroups in different ways, deepening existing disparities. Essential workers have faced the greatest risk of exposure to COVID-19; women have been burdened by caretaking responsibilities; and rural residents have experienced healthcare access barriers. Each of these factors did not occur on their own. While most research has so far focused on individual factors related to COVID-19 disparities, few have explored the complex relationships between the multiple components of COVID-19 vulnerabilities. Using structural equation modeling on a sample of United States (U.S.) workers (N = 2800), we aimed to 1) identify factor clusters that make up specific COVID-19 vulnerabilities, and 2) explore how these vulnerabilities affected specific subgroups, specifically essential workers, women and rural residents. We identified 3 COVID-19 vulnerabilities: financial, mental health, and healthcare access; 9 out of 10 respondents experienced one; 15% reported all three. Essential workers [standardized coefficient (β) = 0.23; unstandardized coefficient (B) = 0.21, 95% CI = 0.17, 0.24] and rural residents (β = 0.13; B = 0.12, 95% CI = 0.09, 0.16) experienced more financial vulnerability than non-essential workers and non-rural residents, respectively. Women (β = 0.22; B = 0.65, 95% CI = 0.65, 0.74) experienced worse mental health than men; whereas essential workers reported better mental health (β = -0.08; B = -0.25, 95% CI = -0.38, -0.13) than other workers. Rural residents (β = 0.09; B = 0.15, 95% CI = 0.07, 0.24) experienced more healthcare access barriers than non-rural residents. Findings highlight how interrelated financial, mental health, and healthcare access vulnerabilities contribute to the disproportionate COVID-19-related burden among U.S. workers. Policies to secure employment conditions, including fixed income and paid sick leave, are urgently needed to mitigate pandemic-associated disparities.

Authors: Birdsey Laurence P. , Weston Matthew , Russell Mark , Johnston Michael , Cook Christian J. , Kilduff Liam P.
Published: February 2022

The 24 h responses to professional female netball-specific training were examined. British Superleague players (n = 14) undertook a 90-min on-court training session incorporating key movement, technical, and scenario-specific match-play drills. Perceptual (mood, fatigue, soreness), neuromuscular (countermovement jump peak power output [PPO], PPO relative to mass [PPOrel], jump height [JH]), endocrine (salivary cortisol [C], testosterone [T] concentrations) and biochemical (creatine kinase concentrations [CK]) markers were assessed at baseline (immediately before; Pre), and immediately, two and 24 hours after (+0h, +2h, +24h) training. Session (sRPE) and differential (dRPE) ratings of perceived exertion were recorded at +0h. Identification of clear between time-point differences were based on the 95% confidence interval (CI) for mean differences relative to baseline values not overlapping. At +0h, C (raw unit mean difference from baseline; 95% CI: 0.16; 0.06 to 0.25 μg·dl-1), T (32; 20 to 45 pg⋅ml–1), CK (39; 28 to 50 u·L-1), PPOrel (2.4; 0.9 to 3.9 W·kg-1) and PPO (169; 52 to 286 W) increased. At +2h, fatigue (15; 7 to 24 AU), CK (49; 38 to 60 u·L-1), and soreness (14; 3 to 25 AU) increased, while T (-24; -37 to -11 pg⋅ml–1) and mood (-20; -27 to -12 AU) reduced. At +24h, CK increased (25; 13 to 36 u·L-1) whereas PPOrel (-1.6; -3.2 to -0.1 W·kg-1) and JH (-0.02; -0.03 to -0.08 m) reduced. Responses were variable specific, and recovery of all variables did not occur within 24h. The residual effects of the prior stimulus should be accounted for in the planning of training for professional female netball players.
Cultural Heritage and Nation Branding: A Marketing Driver for Sustainable Development
Authors: Vegheș Călin
Published: February 2022

Until recently, brands and branding were used almost exclusively in a commercial context as tools employed in the promotion and sales of different goods and services. The extension of the scope of marketing to the societal level has expanded the area of ​​branding applicability from economic to social, from profit to non-profit, and from individuals to nations. Valuable elements, an important part of them having a solid cultural background, can be identified and employed nowadays to build and capitalize on brands not only for products and services but also for individuals and communities, respectively organizations and nations. Does cultural heritage matter, and if so, to what extent, in the endeavors of building, promoting, and capitalizing on a nation's brand? Can cultural heritage contribute to the nation's branding effort and act together as a marketing driver to enable a country's sustainable development? These are the questions this paper aims to answer from a marketing perspective, after assessing the secondary data on cultural heritage, nations' branding, and dimensions of sustainable development for a group of selected countries.
Wie der Mensch zu Gottes Ebenbild wurde. Demokratisierungsprozesse im antiken Israel
Authors: Schmid Konrad
Published: February 2022

With the idea in Genesis 1 that all human beings are created in the image of God - instead of just the king - the Bible formulates an early conceptual prerequisite of egalitarianism, which forms the anthropological foundation of any democracy. Genesis 1 democratizes the traditional ideology of kingship and renders every human capable of (king-like) responsible rule. Important factors in the intellectual history of ancient Israel that prepared the way for the idea of the likeness of all human beings to God can be found: (1) in the subversive reception of Assyrian treaty theology and its transfer to the relationship between God and people; (2) in the criticism of kings within biblical prophecy, which was confirmed as factual by the fall of Judah and Jerusalem in 587 BCE; and (3) in the increasingly critical stance toward slavery in the Torah, which ideally brought the position of slaves ever closer to that of free people.

Em seguida, contando com a crítica de Nussbaum sobre como muitas propostas educacionais não explicitam uma psicologia do desenvolvimento, aventamos uma vinculação entre Educação, Política e ideias psicológicas em Rousseau. Adiante, trazemos elementos da pesquisa psicogenética de Jean Piaget, propondo que esse tipo de pesquisa permite um fortalecimento do nexo entre as áreas da Educação, Política e, agora, Psicologia do Desenvolvimento, contribuindo para a discussão ainda atual acerca do vir a ser cidadão.

Becoming a citizen: Education, Politics and Developmental Psychology
Abstract: Considering the Honnethian thesis that there is today a disconnexion between Education and Politics, and asserting a strong link between these fields in the thought of Jean-Jacques Rousseau, in this work we present some aspects of how, for him, it is possible for a human, as a member of the species, to become a citizen. Then, relying on Nussbaum's critique of the fact that many educational proposals do not make developmental psychology explicit, we suggest a link between Education, Politics and psychological ideas in Rousseau. Ahead, we bring elements of Jean Piaget's psychogenetic research, proposing that this type of research allows a strengthening of the nexus between the fields of Education, Politics and, now, Developmental Psychology, contributing to the still current discussion about becoming a citizen.

Geography, Maps, and the Annals: 67 years of History
Authors: Hickey Robert , Delgado Elvin
Published: February 2022

Geographers are often asked “what is geography?”, and the number of answers to this question nearly equals the number of geographers. We (and others) argue that it is the spatial dimension that makes geography different, and that to do geography, one must communicate spatial information. Cartography is one of the key forms of spatial communication. However, the geographic literature often lacks maps. To examine this, we reviewed 67 years of the Annals of the American Association of Geographers to test any trends in the presence/absence of maps, the influence of editors, and how any trends related to changes in the field of geography. On average, 24% of the papers published did not contain maps. Roughly speaking, papers from the 1950s, mid-1970s through the 1980s, and from 2000–present were the least likely to contain maps. Papers in the 1960s, early 1970s, and mid-1990s contained the most. The influence of editors on the percentage of papers published without maps was significant, but weak. We found a relationship between the changes in numbers of papers with maps and broad changes in the field of geography. There was a slight increase in the number of publications that included maps during the quantitative revolution after World War II, which declined during the discipline’s shift toward social and critical geography in the 1960s and 1970s. In 2001, the format of the Annals changed from publishing all the articles in one section to dividing the publications in four thematic sections with different editors. From 2001–2017, the Physical Geography and Environmental Sciences section was the most likely to have maps (11.9% of articles without maps) while the People, Place, and Regions section was the least (47.7% without maps). Overall, the changes in the percentage of articles without maps can largely be explained by changes in the fields of geography and cartography—up to about 2000.

Ihre besondere Form entstand aus vier frei verbundenen Parabeln und hat eine hohe symbolische Bedeutung, die auf die Ringparabel von Gotthold Ephraim Lessing anspielt. In seiner architektonischen Form repräsentiert das Gebäude die Grundwerte der Bibliothek: Toleranz, Offenheit und Kommunikation auf Augenhöhe.

Auf insgesamt 1 170 m2, die sich über drei barrierefrei zugängliche Ebenen verteilen, bietet die Bibliothek Platz für Medien, Lounge-ähnliche Bereiche, ruhige Lernplätze und Räume für Workshops und Diskussionen. Die gesamte Bibliothek ist in ihrer Nutzung höchst flexibel. Alle Bibliotheksbereiche können so ausgestattet werden, dass sie unterschiedliche Lern- und Veranstaltungssettings ermöglichen. Design und Inneneinrichtung unterstreichen den wohnlichen Charakter der Bibliothek, die sich zum umgebenden Park öffnet. Sie bietet Veranstaltungen an, Raum für Erholung und zum Spielen.

Published: February 2022

Objectives

Pearson syndrome is a mitochondrial cytopathy with multisystemic involvement that typically presents in infancy and has poor prognosis. We aim to present a case that is distinct due to the timing of presentation and associated anomalies.

Case presentation

We report the case of preterm monochorionic twins with transfusion dependent fetal anemia that had post-natal multisystem dysfunction which led to the diagnosis of Pearson syndrome.

Conclusions

This case highlights the possibility of antenatal presentation of Pearson syndrome, which should be considered in cases of severe fetal anemia without an apparent cause.

The transformation behavior of Ni50.5Mn30.4Ga19.1 and Ni53.7Mn26.4Ga19.9 was studied with ac magnetic susceptibility, differential scanning calorimetry, in-situ optical microscopy and X-ray diffractometry. The liquidus, solidus and L21⟶B2’ temperatures were detected for the alloys. The transformation enthalpies of melting, solidification and martensitic/reverse reactions were determined. In Ni53.7Mn26.4Ga19.9 the magnetic transition was clearly below the parent to martensite phase transformation and did not have hysteresis. The transformation sequence is suggested as Pparam ⟶Tparam ⟶ Tferrom with reverse reactions in respective order. In Ni50.5Mn30.4Ga19.1 the temperatures of the magnetic transition and structural phase transformations are close to each other and the Curie temperature shows a hysteresis of 9 K during cooling-heating cycle. Based on the combined measurements, the transformation sequences are assumed to be during cooling Pparam ⟶ 7Mparam ⟶ 7Mferrom ⟶ Tferrom and Tferrom ⟶ Tparam ⟶ 7Mparam ⟶ Pparam during heating. Consequently, the hysteresis in the magnetic transition is explained with the intermartensitic reaction and the difference of the Curie points of 7M and T phases.
Nanophotonics-inspired all-silicon waveguide platforms for terahertz integrated systems

Recent advances in silicon (Si) microphotonics have enabled novel devices for the terahertz (THz) range based on dielectric waveguides. In the past couple of years, dielectric waveguides have become commonplace for THz systems to mitigate issues in efficiency, size, and cost of integration and packaging using metal-based waveguides. Therefore, THz systems have progressively evolved from cumbersome collections of discreet components to THz-wave integrated circuits. This gradual transition of THz systems from numerous components to compact integrated circuits has been facilitated at each step by incredible advances in all-Si waveguides allowing low-loss, low dispersion, and single-mode waveguiding operation. As such, all-Si waveguides position themselves as highly efficient interconnects to realize THz integrated circuits and further large-scale integration in the THz range. This review article intends to reevaluate the evolution stages of THz integrated circuits and systems based on all-Si waveguides.

Published: February 2022

Perovskite solar cells (PSC) offer a promising solution for building integrated photovoltaics (BIPVs) due to its high photoelectric conversion efficiency (PCE). However, increasing the transparency of their functional layers dramatically decreases the PCE. Here, a computer controlled laser patterning method was proposed to directly turn PSC modules into semitransparent and with aesthetic artificial pattern, without additional complexities to the conventional PSCs fabrication process. A structured ST-PSC achieving a champion PCE of 17.5% with average visible transparency (AVT) of 18.2%, and a mini-module with 5 × 5 cm2 delivering a PCE of 9.1% with AVT of 37.7% were demonstrated. Rationally designed aesthetic patterns were imprinted on mini-modules, achieving a PCE of 14.4%. These results reveal a new route for low-cost facile fabricating high performance large-area aesthetic BIPV modules, and represent a big step forward toward the fabrication of solar cells with high efficiency and high transparency.

Impression creep testing is now an established, small-scale testing technique in which the indentation rate of a rectangular indenter can be converted into an equivalent uniaxial creep strain rate. Its increasing use and practical application to power plants has led to a need for standardization. This paper reports on activity by six laboratories currently using the technique to produce a CEN Workshop Agreement covering this testing methodology. Consensus is being sought on the details of the test itself, both in the form of the original single step test and in the form of the more complex stepped stress test, which can provide data at multiple test conditions in the same specimen. Associated matters being addressed include the standardization of specimen and indenter sizes; a standard methodology for measuring the indentation rate and the creep strain rate, with an appropriate validity check; and an agreement on a pretest rig hysteresis check. A further activity will define a maximum indentation depth, supported by finite element analysis. The agreed impression creep test procedure will be used in an interlaboratory “Round Robin” exercise on selected materials.

Published: February 2022

The ability to perceive and produce a beat is believed to be universal in humans, but individual ability varies. The current study examined four factors that may influence beat perception and production capacity: 1) expertise: music or dance, 2) training style: percussive or nonpercussive, 3) stimulus modality: auditory or visual, and 4) movement type: finger-tap or whole-body bounce. Experiment 1 examined how expertise and training style influenced beat perception and production performance using an auditory beat perception task and a finger-tapping beat production task. Experiment 2 used a similar sample with an audiovisual variant of the beat perception task, and a standing knee-bend (bounce) beat production task to assess whole-body movement. The data showed that: 1) musicians were more accurate in a finger-tapping beat synchronization task compared to dancers and controls, 2) training style did not significantly influence beat perception and production, 3) visual beat information did not benefit any group, and 4) beat synchronization in a full-body movement task was comparable for musicians and dancers; both groups outperformed controls. The current study suggests that the type of task and measured response interacts with expertise, and that expertise effects may be masked by selection of nonoptimal response types.

The International Atomic Energy Agency implements safeguard measures to verify the compliance of Member States to their international legal obligations using nuclear material and technology only for peaceful purposes. These safeguard measures, i.a., include analytical measurements of individual micrometer- and submicrometer particles taken by the IAEA on swipe samples during safeguard inspections at nuclear facilities. To ensure the quality control of the analytical results from particle analysis and to further develop mass spectrometric analysis methods, microparticles with well-defined properties as microparticulate reference materials are required. Therefore, mixed lanthanide/uranium oxide microparticles were produced as a first step towards composite reference materials with small amounts of fission products, Pu or Th. A deep understanding of the incorporation mechanisms of dopants into U3O8 structure is essential in this regard. Therefore, bulk-scale comparison materials were produced and doped with lanthanides by co-precipitation methods and systematically investigated by TG, XRD, and Raman. These results will be integrated into the particle production process to design well-defined microparticulate mixed-oxide reference materials.

Characterisation of glass ceramic wasteforms using quantitative image analysis of electron micrographs
Authors: Harnett L. , Stennett M. , Maddrell E. , Hyatt N.
Published: February 2022

Multi-phase material systems make up a significant proportion of the currently proposed and researched wasteforms for sequestration of heterogeneous nuclear material feeds. Quantification of the components for such multi-phase assemblages is typically performed using diffraction-based Rietveld methods, many of which necessitate long measurement times of several hours. Furthermore, careful additions of an internal standard are typically required, to facilitate inclusion of amorphous phases in the quantification. The application of an image analysis method has been investigated, using the z-contrast greyscale of back-scattered electron micrographs to determine the relative quantities of component phases in a suite of monolithic phosphate glass ceramic wasteforms. This work demonstrates an alternate methodology for accelerated quantification which could be applied to other heterogeneous wasteforms and multi-phase materials.
