Cooperative Criticism: When Criticism Enhances Creativity in Brainstorming and Negotiation
Authors: Curhan Jared R. , Labuzova Tatiana , Mehta Aditi
Published: April 2021

Long-standing wisdom holds that criticism is antithetical to effective brainstorming because it incites intragroup conflict. However, a number of recent studies have challenged this assumption, suggesting that criticism might actually enhance creativity in brainstorming by fostering divergent thinking. Our paper reconciles these perspectives with new theory and a multimethod investigation to explain when and why criticism promotes creativity in brainstorming. We propose that a cooperative social context allows criticism to be construed positively, spurring creativity without inciting intragroup conflict, whereas a competitive social context makes criticism more divisive, leading to intragroup conflict and a corresponding reduction in creativity. We found support for this theory from a field experiment involving 100 group brainstorming sessions with actual stakeholders in a controversial urban planning project. In a cooperative context, instructions encouraging criticism yielded more ideas and more creative ideas, whereas in a competitive context, encouraging criticism yielded fewer ideas and less creative ideas. We replicated this finding in a laboratory study involving brainstorming in the context of a union-management negotiation scenario, which allowed us to hold constant the nature of the criticism. Taken together, our findings suggest that the optimal context for creativity in brainstorming is a cooperative one in which criticism occurs but is interpreted constructively because the brainstorming parties perceive their goals as aligned.

A quality improvement project targeting physical, cognitive and social activity levels in inpatient rehabilitation
Authors: Marsiglio Rosemarie , Watterson Dina , Maric Valentina , Holland Anne E
Published: April 2021

Background/aims

People undergoing inpatient rehabilitation largely spend their day by the bedside, inactive and alone. Increasing patients' physical, cognitive and social activity levels may improve rehabilitation outcomes for both the individual and the service. The aim of this study was to trial an activity programME that aimed to increase inpatient physical, cognitive and social activity levels, provided within existing resources whilE maintaining or increasing patient satisfaction.

Methods

A mixed-methods approach was used to develop and evaluate a multi-component activity programme for patients undergoing inpatient rehabilitation.

Results

Patient activity across the unit did not change but the amount of time spent alone during a weekday was significantly reduced. Patient satisfaction levels remained high. Each new therapy group was well received by patients and the volunteers who supported implementation. Novel programmes included table tennis coaching and independent gym access for selected inpatients, which were well used and not resource intensive. Therapist prescription of independent practice programmes remained low. Broader initiatives such as patient education folders require revision and further investment to succeed.

Conclusions

It is possible to change and evaluate multiple therapy services concurrently. The absence of change in overall activity levels demonstrates a need to establish the most successful components, harness support from the organisation to address some of the physical/environmental barriers and expand smaller programmes, and invest more time to consolidate the whole-of-service changes required to push the rehabilitation service in the direction of greater patient activity and ownership. Clinicians should pursue, implement, evaluate and revise novel programmes to engage their patient population.

Underwater image sharpening based on structure restoration and texture enhancement
Authors: Lin Sen , Chi Kaichen , Wei Tong , Tao Zhiyong
Published: April 2021

Light can be absorbed and scattered when traveling through water, which results in underwater optical images suffering from blurring and color distortion. To improve the visual quality of underwater optical images, we propose a novel, to the best of our knowledge, image sharpening method. We utilize the relative total variation model to decompose images into structure and texture layers in a novel manner. On those two layers, the red-blue dark channel prior (RBDCP) and detail lifting algorithms are proposed, respectively. The RBDCP model calculates background light based on brightness, gradient discrimination, and hue judgment, which then generates transmission maps using red-blue channel attenuation characteristics. The linear combination of the Gaussian kernel and binary mask is employed in the proposed detail lifting algorithm. Furthermore, we combine the layers of restoration structure and enhancement texture for image sharpening, inspired by the concept of fusion. Our methodology has rich texture information and is effective in color correction and atomization removal through RBDCP. Extensive experimental results indicate that the proposed method effectively balances image hue, saturation, and clarity.

Public involvement is key to closing the gap between research production and research use, and the only way to achieving ultimate transparency in science. The majority of life science research is not public-facing, but is funded by the public and impacts communities. We undertook an exploratory survey of researchers within the life sciences to better understand their views and perceived challenges to involving the public in their research. As survey response rate could not be determined, interpretation of the results must be cautious. We had a valid response cohort of n = 110 researchers, of whom 90% were primarily laboratory based. Using a mixed methods approach, we demonstrate that a top-down approach is key to motivate progression of life scientists from feeling positive towards public involvement to actually engaging in it. Researchers who viewed public involvement as beneficial to their research were more likely to have direct experience of doing it. We demonstrate that the systemic flaws in the way life sciences research enterprise is organised, including the promotion system, hyper-competition, and time pressures are major barriers to involving the public in the scientific process. Scientists are also apprehensive of being involuntarily involved in the current politicized climate; misinformation and publicity hype surrounding science nowadays makes them hesitant to share their early and in-progress research. The time required to deliberate study design and relevance, plan and build relationships for sustained involvement, provide and undertake training, and improve communication in the current research environment is often considered nonpragmatic, particularly for early career researchers. In conclusion, a top-down approach involving institutional incentives and infrastructure appears most effective at transitioning researchers from feeling positive towards public involvement to actually implementing it.
Farmer and farm worker illnesses and deaths from COVID-19 and impacts on agricultural output
Authors: Lusk Jayson L. , Chandra Ranveer
Published: April 2021

Farmers and farm workers are critical to the secure supply of food, yet this population is potentially at high risk to acquire COVID-19. This study estimates the prevalence of COVID-19 among farmers and farmworkers in the United States by coupling county-level data on the number of farm workers relative to the general population with data on confirmed COVID-19 cases and deaths. In the 13 month period since the start of the pandemic (from March 1, 2020 to March 31, 2021), the estimated cumulative number of COVID-19 cases (deaths) was 329,031 (6,166) among agricultural producers, 170,137 (2,969) among hired agricultural workers, 202,902 (3,812) among unpaid agricultural workers, and 27,223 (459) among migrant agricultural workers. The cases amount to 9.55%, 9.31%, 9.39%, and 9.01% of all U.S. agricultural producers, hired workers, unpaid workers, and migrant workers, respectively. The COVID-19 incidence rate is significantly higher in counties with more agricultural workers; a 1% increase in the number of hired agricultural workers in a county is associated with a 0.04% increase in the number of COVID-19 cases per person and 0.07% increase in deaths per person. Although estimated new cases among farm workers exhibit similar trends to that of the general population, the correlation between the two is sometimes negative, highlighting the need to monitor this particular population that tends to live in more rural areas. Reduction in labor availability from COVID-19 is estimated to reduce U.S. agricultural output by about $309 million.

We developed a novel preparative method for nanoparticle albumin-bound (nab) paclitaxel with high drug loading, which was based on improved paclitaxel solubility in polyethylene glycol (PEG) and self-assembly of paclitaxel in PEG with albumin powders into nanoparticles. That is, paclitaxel and PEG were firstly dissolved in ethanol, which was subsequently evaporated under vacuum. The obtained liquid was then mixed with human serum albumin powders. Thereafter, the mixtures were added into phosphate-buffered saline and nab paclitaxel suspensions emerged after ultrasound. Nab paclitaxel was finally acquired after dialysis and freeze drying. The drug loading of about 15% (W/V) were realized in self-made nab paclitaxel, which was increased by approximately 50% compared to 10% (W/V) in Abraxane. Now this new preparative method has been authorized to obtain patent from China and Japan. The similar characteristics of self-made nab paclitaxel compared to Abraxane were observed in morphology, encapsulation efficiency, in vitro release, X-ray diffraction analysis, differential scanning calorimetry analysis, and circular dichroism spectra analysis. Consistent concentration-time curves in rats, biodistributions in mice, anti-tumor activities in mice, and histological transmutation in mice were also found between Abraxane and self-made nanoparticles. In a word, our novel preparative method for nab paclitaxel can significantly improve drug loading, obviously decrease product cost, and is considered to have potent practical value.
«Fuera de lugar»: Roberto Schwarz y la centralidad de la experiencia periférica
Authors: Maiso Jordi
Published: April 2021

This article analyses Roberto Schwarz’s contributions to understanding the significance of Brazilian culture in relation to the way in which it is embedded in the dynamics of global capitalism. At first, it analyses to what extent his approach to Latin American culture can be understood as a dialectical alternative to postcolonial and subaltern studies. Then, based on his analysis of the intertwining of artistic form and social reality, it focuses on how Schwarz reveals the significance of Machado de Assis’ late narrative, which goes far beyond the strictly local. Finally, it offers some insights into his understanding of the evolution of the peripheral ‘maladjustment’ in the recent evolution of global capitalism on the basis of Paulo Lins’ novel Cidade de Deus.
Errant anarchaeologies, the disjunction of Borges and the Yagán dog
Authors: Díaz-Letelier Gonzalo
Published: April 2021

This article addresses the concept of ‘anarchaeological reading’ proposed by Erin Graff Zivin, putting it at stake, on the one hand, in the reading of the temporal disjunction of the Borges reader of the question of eternity in Plato and, on the other, in the pointing out of the colonially regimented interpretation of the link between Yagán Indians and fox-dogs in southern Patagonia made by a European ‘Indian hunter’ at the end of the nineteenth century.

Published: April 2021

BACKGROUND Acute infections of the nervous system are generally widespread and cause significant problems in the field medicine and therefore early detection, right decision making, and early initiation of therapy can be lifesaving. Meningitis is the inflammation of the membranes that cover the brain and spinal cord. It is a general clinical problem during infancy and childhood. Delay in differentiating between bacterial, tubercular & viral meningitis and institution of its treatment may have irreparable consequences that lead to significant morbidity & mortality. The present study was conducted to find out the utility of cerebrospinal fluid-adenosine deaminase (CSF-ADA) for the early diagnosis & differentiation of tubercular & viral meningitis in adults. METHODS 50 meningitis patients who met the inclusion criteria were selected. Investigations including complete haemogram, liver function test (LFT), renal function test (RFT), random blood sugar (RBS), serum electrolytes, human immunodeficiency virus (HIV) test, chest x-ray and computed tomography (CT) brain (plain) were done. CSF cytology, biochemistry, gram stain, acid-fast bacteria (AFB) stain & culture were done. These cases were further divided in to two groups based on clinical and CSF laboratory findings as group I: tubercular meningitis, group II: viral meningitis. An estimation of CSF-ADA was done in all patients. RESULTS The mean age of the 50 patients studied was 37.76 + 15.58 years, with the maximum number of patients suffering from tubercular meningitis. The incidence of meningitis was more in males. CSF-adenosine deaminase activity was found to be higher in tubercular meningitis, the mean value was 17.67 ± 8.13 IU / L. CONCLUSIONS Assessment of CSF-ADA will be helpful for early diagnosis and differentiation of tubercular and viral meningitis. This is needed when gold standard investigations for meningitis like smear and / or culture for acid fast bacilli are not available or negative or are time consuming.

Published: April 2021

BACKGROUND Gestational trophoblastic diseases have varying clinical presentations with certain diagnostic signs and symptoms. A strong correlation between gestational trophoblastic diseases (GTD) and a previous history of dilation & evacuation (D & E) has been documented in the limited available literature. We wanted to study the spectrum of gestational trophoblastic disease secondary to dilation & evacuation. METHODS A two-year study including all the females who were admitted to MMIMSR Hospital in view of suspicion of gestational trophoblastic disease was conducted with all having a common history of dilatation and evacuation in the recent past. RESULTS Through the analysis we saw the spectrum of GTD including partial mole, complete mole, invasive mole and choriocarcinoma, as well as its complications in the form of arterio-venous malformation (AVM). CONCLUSIONS The two-year experience suggests that dilatation and curettage may predispose a female of reproductive age group to develop gestational trophoblastic disease in the future. Hence, a high index of suspicion is necessary for timely diagnosis and intervention. The study further helped us understand the wide spectrum of the disease and its associated complications.
