Event-related Factors, Altruism, and Substance Use in Traumatization of Hurricane Student Volunteers: A Bayesian Model for the Follow-up Running Head: Bayesian Analysis of Disaster Traumatization
Authors: Li Wenyi , Ai Amy L.
Published: April 2024

In surging disaster research, trauma psychologists called for more longitudinal investigation on factors related to resilience/lower traumatization for populations exposed to collective trauma. Little research has employed a Bayesian approach, a means with advantages in small samples and dichotomized endpoints. The present study addressed these needs with a two-wave survey on hurricane volunteers to demonstrate pathways to traumatization after deadly disasters. A survey was conducted at three months (Wave-1) and six months (Wave-2) after hurricane Katrina and Rita (H-KR) (N=201). Standardized instruments were used to assess posttraumatic stress symptoms (PTSS) altruism, substance use for coping, and event-related factors in Wave-1 and posttraumatic stress disorder (PTSD) in Wave-2. Bayesian structural equation modeling (Bayesian-SEM) was performed to evaluate the role of altruism and using substances to cope with Wave-2 PTSD. Traumatization was identified in 18% of participants, showing a significant increase in Wave-1 and a 12% decrease, albeit non-significant, in Wave-2. Supported by all Model fit indices, the final solution of Bayesian-SEM showed no direct overtime effect of altruism and substance use, but the indirect effects through the enhancing role of Waves-1 PTSS, on Wave-2 PTSD. Contrary to cross-sectional studies, no protection from peritraumatic positive emotions was observed. These findings emphasize the importance of longitudinal post-disaster research. Given the new evidence on volunteers' traumatization, altruism, and substance use during times of crisis with limited resources, further investigation among volunteers is crucial. The absence of identified protective factors in volunteers raises concerns for future implications in trauma psychology theory, research, and practice.
Current English Language Teaching Using Production-Oriented Approach: A Systematic Review
Authors: Sun Lifang , Ismail Hanita Hanim , Aziz Azlina Abdul
Published: April 2024

In recent years, the production-oriented approach (POA) has grown to be a popular research topic in China. Despite that, it is noticeable that a systematic literature review of the international journals written in English (2019-2023) on POA is not available, which has raised a need to promote POA to other parts of the world, especially to benefit more English learners. This review is focused on three questions: What is the present state of implementation of POA? What are its influences on students’ acquisition of the English language? What are the obstacles encountered in promoting broader adoption of POA? Based on a search via three databases (Scopus, WoS, and ERIC), 35 journal articles between 2019 and 2023 were analysed finally. The findings indicate that: (1) POA research is now mainly empirical research, related to theory development, teacher development, and textbook development. (2) The effects of POA on English learners are as long as they are manifested in terms of their effects on students' writing ability, speaking ability, translation ability,  positive affective experiences and learning awareness. (3) At present, the main problems encountered by POA lie in the limited classroom teaching time, the relatively small sample size, and the remaining gap between the selection of teaching materials and the teaching design to keep students’ continuous motivation. In addition, this article also discusses the future direction of research, which needs to work on linguistics, literature, western culture, ESP programs and other languages, as well as the integration and development of teaching materials and teacher development.
Uncovering the Common Linguistic Errors in Student Journalists’ Unedited News Articles: A Comprehensive Analysis
Authors: Deiparine Marcelina S. , Montalla Matthew G. , Bacus Remedios C.
Published: April 2024

English language learners encounter difficulties in mastering grammar and vocabulary, which can significantly influence their writing skills. This study analyzes the most common writing errors and their linguistic classification in student journalists’ unedited articles; it also utilizes a qualitative-descriptive design and Corder’s Error Analysis Model for data analysis. Ten selected unedited news articles written by student journalists were examined. Findings revealed that the student writers have common linguistic errors: mechanical, morpho-syntactic, and lexico-semantic. The findings imply that student journalists are not exempted from committing linguistic errors that may affect information decoding despite being trained and exposed to writing activities. The findings have broader implications as student journalists may serve as representatives of English language learners in their institution or community. Schools may develop remedial programs to provide ample practice opportunities using interactive, technology-based tools for grammar and vocabulary. English teachers may create instructional materials and develop community extension and outreach programs to address grammatical learning gaps.
Longitudinal Investigation: Impact of Production-Oriented Approach on Chinese University Students’ English Writing and Speaking Proficiency
Authors: Zhao Yanli , Sulaiman Nur Ainil , Wahi Wahiza
Published: April 2024

This paper presents preliminary findings of a quantitative investigation of the effects of the Production-oriented Approach (POA) on the English writing and speaking proficiency of Chinese university students. Involving an experiment group instructed by the POA and a control group receiving regular instruction focusing on linguistic forms, the study organized reliable tests before, during and after the study, the data of which was analyzed from the perspectives of complexity, accuracy and fluency indices. Between-group and within-group analysis revealed that the experiment group exhibited a significant and sustained improvement in English writing and speaking fluency. However, notable progress in language production complexity and accuracy was lacking. Conversely, the control group demonstrated significant enhancements in both writing and speaking complexity and accuracy, with no observable improvement in fluency. The results underscore a cautious assessment of the effectiveness of the POA, suggesting its limited impact on students’ overall English proficiency in the context of this study. Educators and curriculum planners are encouraged to reconsider the comprehensive development of language proficiency within the POA. Striking a balance between a focus on form, which is prevalent in China’s English language education, and a focus on meaning is recommended for optimal language learning outcomes.

Authors: Merimee Stephanie , Ali Ashley , Downes Katheryne , Mullins Joanna , Sajid Mir Ibrahim , Mir Hassan
Published: April 2024

Introduction:

This study aims to evaluate health literacy (HL) in geriatric orthopaedic trauma patients and their families as it relates to their post-acute care (PAC) in skilled nursing facilities (SNFs) and inpatient rehabilitation facilities (IRFs).

Methods:

This nonrandomized controlled clinical trial included patients aged 65 years and older treated for acute fracture at a Level 1 trauma center and discharged to either IRF or SNF. First 106 patients enrolled served as the control group and received standard discharge instructions. The second 101 patients were given a set of oral and written instructions regarding PAC detailing important questions to ask upon arrival to their facility.

Results:

The mean HL score for all patients/families was 2.4 out of 5. No significant difference was noted in HL scores (2.4 versus 2.3) or median LOS (22 versus 28 days) between the control and intervention groups. Family involvement (68%) slightly improved HL scores (2.6 versus 1.9, P < 0.001). Patients discharged to IRF had better HL scores (3.4 versus 2.3, P < 0.001), shorter LOS (median 15 vs 30 days, P < 0.001), and trended toward improved knowledge of discharge goals (48.1% versus 35.6%) than those in SNF.

Conclusion:

System-wide solutions are necessary to improve geriatric HL and optimize outcomes in orthopaedic trauma.

Authors: Albers Patrick , Bennett Jacob , Evans Moira , St. Martin Ella , Wang Betty , Broomfield Stacey , Medina Martín Anaïs , Tu Wendy , Fung Christopher , Kinnaird Adam
Published: April 2024

Introduction: Despite a negative magnetic resonance imaging (MRI), some patients may still harbor clinically significant prostate cancer (csPCa, Gleason grade group ≥2). High-resolution micro-ultrasound (microUS) is a novel imaging technology that could visualize csPCa that is missed by MRI.
Methods: This retrospective review included 1011 consecutive patients biopsied between September 2021 and July 2023 in Alberta, Canada. Among them were 103 biopsy-naive patients with negative MRI (Prostate Imaging Reporting & Data System [PI-RADS] ≤2) undergoing microUS-informed prostate biopsy (n=56) scored using Prostate Risk Identification Using Micro-ultrasound (PRI-MUS) or standard transrectal ultrasound prostate biopsy (n=47). The primary outcome was detection rate of csPCa stratified by biopsy technique and PRI-MUS score.
Results: MicroUS biopsy identified csPCa in 14/56 (25%) compared to standard biopsy in 8/47 (17%) (p=0.33). Patients with lesions PRI-MUS ≥3 had csPCa detected at a higher rate compared to patients with PRI-MUS ≤2 (42% vs. 16%, p=0.03). The csPCa detection rate was significantly different comparing patients with PSA density <0.15 and PRI-MUS ≤2 compared to patients with PSA density ≥0.15 and PRI-MUS ≥3 (14% vs. 60%, p=0.02).
Conclusions: MicroUS may aid in the detection of csPCa for patients with negative MRI.

Published: April 2024

Introduction: We aimed to compare holmium laser enucleation of the prostate (HoLEP) outcomes in patients with and without neurologic diseases (ND).
Methods: A prospectively maintained database of patients undergoing HoLEP from January 2021 to April 2022 was reviewed. The following NDs were included: diabetes-related neuropathy/neurogenic bladder, Parkinson’s disease, dementia, cerebrovascular accident, multiple sclerosis, traumatic brain injury, transient ischemic attack, brain/spinal tumors, myasthenia gravis, spinal cord injury, and other. Statistical analysis was performed using t-tests, Chi-squared, and binomial tests (p<0.05).
Results: A total of 118 ND patients were identified with 135 different neurologic diseases. ND patients were more likely to have indwelling catheters (57% vs. 39%, p=0.012) and urinary tract infections (UTIs) preoperatively (32% vs. 19%, p=0.002). Postoperatively, ND patients were more likely to fail initial trial of void (20% vs. 8.1%, p<0.001) and experience an episode of acute urinary retention (16% vs. 8.5%, p=0.024). Within 90 days postoperative, the overall complication rate was higher in the ND group (26% vs. 13%, p=0.001). Within the ND group, 30/118 (25%) had ≥1 UTI within 90 days preoperative, which decreased to 10/118 (8.7%) 90 days postoperative (p<0.001). At last followup (mean 6.7 months [ND] vs. 5.4 months [non-ND], p=0.03), four patients (4.4%) in the ND group required persistent catheter/clean intermittent catheterization compared to none in the non-ND group (p=0.002).
Conclusions: Patients with ND undergoing HoLEP are more likely to experience postoperative retention and higher complication rates compared to non-ND patients. While UTI rates are higher in this population, HoLEP significantly reduced three-month UTI and catheterization rates.

Introduction: Health-related quality of life (HRQoL) is often reduced in patients with urolithiasis. The objective of this study was to perform a systematic review to describe impact on HRQoL based on different modalities of treatment for small urolithiases with a diameter smaller or equal to 10 mm.
Methods: Electronic databases were searched with no language or date restrictions to identify studies which were included if they reported: adult patients (18 years old), renal or ureteral stone(s) confirmed on imagery, validated reporting of HRQoL, and stone diameter equal or smaller than 10 mm undergoing active surveillance, medical expulsive therapy (MET), shockwave lithotripsy (SWL), or ureteroscopy (URS).
Results: Of 672 citations, nine articles were eligible. Five studies (all ureteral) reported HRQoL according to medical stone management. Three of them found that HRQoL in MET patients was better than in active surveillance patients and two studies found no difference in HRQoL between MET and active surveillance groups. Four studies (three ureteral, one renal) reported HRQoL according to surgical stone management. Of the ureteral stone studies, two reported better HRQoL in URS patients than in SWL patients, while one study found no difference between URS and SWL groups. In the renal stone study, SWL patients had better HRQoL than URS patients.
Conclusions: Patients with urinary stones 10 mm or smaller have better HRQoL when treated with MET vs. active surveillance, when treated with SWL vs. URS for renal stones, and when treated with URS vs. SWL for ureteral stones. There is an important need for more studies on this topic.

Fruit flies are one of the major pests infesting varieties of economically important fruits worldwide. This pest represents one of the most damaging groups of polyphagous flies. One of the alternatives for the control of the fruit fly that attacks mangoes is the use of pheromone-baited traps. The effectiveness of the pheromone traps depends on several factors such as field conditions, trap location, and environmental conditions. Therefore, this study evaluated the effect of different trap heights (1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, and 7 feet above the ground) on fruit fly trapping with traps baited with methyl eugenol. The trap installed at 5 feet above the ground had the highest number (p<0.05) of captured fruit flies compared to other heights evaluated. These results imply that for the effective monitoring and management of fruit flies, pheromone baited traps must be placed 5 feet from the ground level. The results further revealed that weather parameters did not appear to have a significant correlation (p<0.05) with the average population count of the pest. Because of the importance and usefulness of the findings of this study, further research that integrates this technology with other pest management tactics against the tephritid flies infesting mango at farmers’ level is recommended. Optimizing this technology may offer a cost-effective and practical pest management approach for small hold mango farmers.

Groundwater arsenic contamination status and its impact on humans’ health in Bangladesh
Authors: Chowdhury Uttam K
Published: April 2024

From our preliminary survey (1995 to 2000), 33,092 hand tube wells water samples, collected from all 64 districts and found arsenic in 60 districts above WHO recommended value in drinking water (10 µg/L) and in 50 districts above maximum permissible limit, 50 µg/L. In these 50 districts the actual arsenic status is, 37% contains arsenic less than 10 µg/L, 63% and 42% contain arsenic above 10 µg/L and 50 µg/L, respectively. Total population of these 50 districts is about 104.9 million. This does not mean all populations in the 50 districts are drinking arsenic contaminated water or suffering, but undoubtedly, they are at risk. From our study, it appears that groundwater of Hill Tract and Table Land are almost free from arsenic contamination but that of Flood Plain and Deltaic areas are highly arsenic contaminated. During our preliminary survey, people suffering from arsenical dermal lesions have been identified in 31 out of 33 districts where we had made a preliminary dermatological investigation with medical team. From a random of 18,840 examination people in arsenic affected villages where people were drinking arsenic contaminated groundwater during last 6 years. We had registered 3,427 adults (both females and males) and 298 children (both girls and boys), having arsenical dermal lesions, such as: melanosis, leucomelanosis, keratosis, hyperkeratosis, dorsal, non-petting oedema, gangrene, cancer, etc. If children are included, then 19.77% (n=3,725) have arsenical dermal lesions and for separately adults and children these are 24.52% and 6.13%, respectively.

Machine learning-based survival prediction in glioma using large scale registry data – the importance of chemotherapy and radiation therapy management as predictive features
Authors: Andra Krauze , R Zhao , Y Zhuge , K Camphausen , Andra Krauze
Published: April 2024

Gliomas are the most common central nervous system tumors exhibiting poor survival, quality of life and neurological outcomes prompting significant discussion surrounding optimisation of the aggressiveness of management. The ability to estimate prognosis is crucial for both patients and providers in order to select the most appropriate treatment. Previous attempts at predicting survival outcomes have relied on clinical parameters (age, KPS, gender) and resection or methylation status and statistical models to create prognostic groups limiting survival prediction due to selection bias and tumor heterogeneity. Machine learning (ML) allows for more sophisticated approaches to survival prediction amalgamating real world clinical, molecular and imaging data. We wanted to examine clinical parameters needed to achieve superior predictive accuracy in order to help advance guidelines for the creation and maintenance of robust large-scale glioma registries.

This research approaches the problem of artificial intelligence chatbot applications from a new perspective. With the development of innovation, many firms are using artificial intelligence chatbots to manage their business and build relationships with their customers. Thus, this study aims to offer bibliometric assessments of the expanding literature about AI chatbot services. We used the VOS Viewer software to analyze the data based on Scopus from 2005 to 2022. We extracted and examined the data from several AI chatbot service bibliometric reviews. Given the data, we form 571 peer-reviewed papers from the journal. After analyzing the data, the researchers found the most influential work, authors, and co-cited authors on AI chatbots. Similarly, the researchers, based on the author’s co-citation analysis and the intellectual structure, distinguish between “computer science”, “chatbot service”, and “digital health”. Computer science is the most critical discipline regarding AI applications.

Published: April 2024

Célkitűzés: Súlyos SARS-CoV-2-infekció nyomán kialakult makulalézió sikeres gyógyításának bemutatása. Módszer: A 43 éves, egyébként egészséges férfi SARS-CoV-2-fertőzés miatt intubációs lélegeztetőgépes kezelésben részesült, amit állapota javulásáig, 15 napig folytattak. Ekkor jelezte a bal szem látásgyengülését. Általános- és képalkotó (Fundus-fotó; BAF és OCT) szemfenékvizsgálat nyomán parafoveális makula-candidiasis gyanúja merült fel. Intenzív általános és antifungális kezelés történt. A betegség lefolyását funkcionális vizsgálatok mellett multimodális morfológiai módszerekkel követtük. Eredmény: Az általános Candidafertőzés szóródása chorioideális megtapadásból eredő burjánzásba fejlődött, ami a makuláris retinába tört. Azonnal megkezdett antimikotikus kezeléssel a folyamat üvegtesti áttörése megakadályozhatóvá vált majd kis parafoveális heggel gyógyult. A beteg látásélessége 1,0-re javult és csak ritkán észlel apró paracentrális scotomát. Következtetés: SARS-CoV-2-fertőzés és legyengült immunstátus mellett megnövekszik az általános gombás fertőzés és annak szemészeti szövődmény veszélye. A klinikai kép korai fázisban történő felismerése és a kezelés azonnali megkezdése megelőzheti a súlyos Candida-endophthalmitis kialakulását.
