Trauma-informed Care in the NICU – Implications for Parents and Staff
Authors: Coughlin McNeil Mary 
Published: November 2020

“The expectation that we can be immersed in suffering and loss daily and not be touched by it is as unrealistic as expecting to be able to walk on water without getting wet. This sort of denial is no small matter”1The concept of trauma and traumatic stress emerged in the field of mental health over forty years ago and is a widespread public health concern. The paradigm of trauma-informed care acknowledges that trauma and traumatic stress overwhelm an individual’s ability to cope while simultaneously changing their biology with both short term and lifelong implications for health and wellbeing. The Substance Abuse and Mental Health Services Administration (SAMHSA) was the first to implement a trauma-informed care framework which “(1) realizes the widespread impact of trauma; (2) recognizes the signs and symptoms of trauma in clients, families, staff, and others; (3) responds by fully integrating knowledge about trauma into policies, procedures, and practices; and (4) actively seeks to resist re-traumatization.”2
Music-supported systematic treatment strategy for patients with executive dysfunction following traumatic brain injury: Similarities and divergencies in 7 case reports.
Authors: Vik Berit Marie Dykesteen 
Published: November 2020

AbstractThis article explores what factors may predict a positive or negative outcome for cognitive enhancement and improved social behaviour after music-supported intervention for patients with cognitive and behavioural deficits following mild traumatic brain injury (mTBI). 7 patients with executive dysfunction following mTBI participated in a music-based intervention. They were in a chronic phase and were either sicklisted or worked part-time. 6 out of 7 participants returned to work post-intervention. Results from neurophysiological tests and fMRI consolidated with enhanced cognitive performance and functional neuroplasticity in orbitofrontal cortex. However, these result were based on quantitative analysis with mean effect and did not give specific information about similarities and divergencies between the participants which may have an impact on the final outcome. The present article applies a case-study methodology and explores behavioural data obtained from the study, not earlier published. This methodology allows an in depth analyse of clinical data, observational data during intervention and data from semi-structured interviews pre-post intervention. Aim of the present article is to develop a systematic treatment strategie of music training to improve cognitive and behavioral domains of functioning in patients with cognitive deficits following mTBI.

Published: November 2020

Background: The acquisition of procedural competence is of vital importance in the training of physicians. It has been observed that medical students with extensive musical backgrounds often learn surgical techniques more rapidly than other students, raising the question of motor skill transfer from one area to another. Objective: It is the aim of this project to explore whether musicians can learn and perform surgical skills more rapidly than non-musicians. This study explores the claims that musicians’ proficiency in playing their instrument can translate into benefits when learning complex and refined motor skills in another domain. Even basic surgical skills, such as suturing, become difficult in cognitively demanding environments such as the operating room, containing a barrage of multisensory stimuli where the surgeon must triage and respond to clinically salient information. Method: Participants with piano expertise and participants with no formal music training learned how to do a surgical knot and sutures. They had two practice sessions and were tested after each session. The two test parameters measured were time to complete the task and an OSATS (Objective Structures Assessment of Technical Skills) score. Results for each group (musicians and non-musicians) were analysed and compared. Results: Musician participants performed the surgical tasks faster and received higher scores than the controls; for knot tying, the difference between the two groups was statistically significant. Gender and proficiency using chopsticks also exhibited some influence on test times and scores. Conclusion: Musical training in piano appeared to be of benefit in the initial stage of learning new simple surgical skills. This indicates that at least some aspects of a musicians’ skillset (such as fine motor control, bimanual dexterity and good hand-eye coordination) might be transferrable to an ostensibly disparate domain, and may be important for incorporation in surgical training where the skill of suturing can impact both surgical outcomes, patient safety, and patient satisfaction.
Protocol for a Neurophenomenological Investigation of a Guided Imagery and Music Experience (Part II)
Authors: Hunt Andrea McGraw 
Published: November 2020

Abstract This is Part II of a two-part article that includes a step-by-step description of the methodology undertaken in my study [1], as well as a discussion regarding the clinical implications of the data collection process. This application of neurophenomenology integrated individual experiential reports with EEG data to obtain a description of responses to a modified music and imagery (GIM) session based upon the Bonny Method of Guided Imagery and Music. This article details the methodological challenges in addressing such questions, and ways in which I sought to work around and with them. The process of analyzing both the subjective and neuronal data revealed interesting questions both about the nature of the GIM experience, as well as about the limitations of integrating these very different sets of data, including: To what degree can participants fully convey their experiences to a researcher, and by extension, to a GIM therapist? How do participants recall their imagery experiences after the session, and what does this mean for practitioners during the session? To what degree can neuronal activity be attributed to specific imagery or perceptual experiences? What does a productive session look like from a neurophenomenological perspective? Pursuing these questions can lead to greater understanding of the mechanism of GIM’s effectiveness. Keywords: Bonny Method, Guided Imagery and Music, neurophenomenology, EEG, Neuroimaging.
The Chalice of Repose Project’s Music-Thanatology History and Praxis
Authors: Schroeder-Sheker Therese 
Published: November 2020

Abstract The palliative medical modality of music-thanatology as developed by the author and pioneered at the Chalice of Repose Project is an evidence-based practice-vocation-profession, and maintains a singular focus and orientation: the physical and spiritual care of the dying with prescriptive music. Music-thanatology palliative care is delivered in every psychosocial setting and serves every patient constituency, pediatric to geriatric. The music-thanatology delivery of prescriptive music occurs live, at the bedside; is responsive to the patient’s unique, dynamic medical and interior conditions, and features quiet reception rather than clinician-patient interaction. This historical report provides a condensed overview of forty-four years of music-thanatology development, history and clinical practice. This includes a description of the historical and current curricula, excerpts from clinical field notes and an example of a spiritual practice that can sensitively orient musician-clinicians toward the existential patient experience. The bibliographical resources cited reflect the methodologies of a variety of scholarly disciplines in the biomedical and nursing arts and sciences and a full range of the humanities, all of which are integrated into music-thanatology education, formation and praxis. Recent population studies [1] report that there are currently over 46 million Americans aged 65 and older, and this number is expected to double by 2060. Life expectancy has generally increased and with it the need for excellent end-of-life palliative care programs. A full array of dedicated and competent practitioners skilled in a variety of end-of-life arts and sciences has never been so greatly needed in the USA. When interventional modalities have been exhausted, music-thanatology offers effective pain relief and meaningful, effective, cost-effective supportive care options during the final days and hours of life. Keywords: Music-thanatology, palliative care, prescriptive music, narrative medicine, spirituality, transitus, monastic medicine, contemplative practice, letting go.
Non-pharmacological approaches to dementia: An overview of foundations & considerations
Authors: Carozza Linda , Serrone Lisa-Marie , Sugatan Lara 
Published: November 2020

Dementia is a syndrome characterized by the progressive degeneration of one's cognitive function. The syndrome inflicts one in every nine individuals 65 and older; and 200,000 individuals under the age of 65. Currently, no cure exists; thus, finding the highest quality treatment to reduce the symptoms of the disease must become priority. Maintaining or increasing one’s quality of life is the utmost goal of any therapy for individuals with dementia. Currently, non-pharmacological approaches for suppressing concomitant symptoms of the disease have become highly debated and researched for their usefulness and for their ability to achieve this goal. Several therapeutic methods that can be considered non-pharmacological - music therapy, narrative telling , poetry, art therapy, technological interventions, and exercise and dance movement programs. A literature review was completed in order to determine the role of theseapproaches on dementia. Findings indicate that there is a small effect on cognition during these therapies presently, but there is still insufficient research in the area to conclude a sufficient difference. Non-pharmacological treatments yield potential quality of life benefits while additionally being cost-effective compared to medical interventions. Due its prevalence, further research on this topic is warranted and necessary.

Abstract. Satellite-based models have been widely used to simulate
vegetation gross primary production (GPP) at the site, regional, or global
scales in recent years. However, accurately reproducing the interannual
variations in GPP remains a major challenge, and the long-term changes in
GPP remain highly uncertain. In this study, we generated a long-term global
GPP dataset at 0.05∘ latitude by 0.05∘ longitude and
8 d interval by revising a light use efficiency model (i.e., EC-LUE model).
In the revised EC-LUE model, we integrated the regulations of several major
environmental variables: atmospheric CO2 concentration, radiation
components, and atmospheric vapor pressure deficit (VPD). These
environmental variables showed substantial long-term changes, which could
greatly impact the global vegetation productivity. Eddy covariance (EC)
measurements at 95 towers from the FLUXNET2015 dataset, covering nine major
ecosystem types around the globe, were used to calibrate and validate the
model. In general, the revised EC-LUE model could effectively reproduce the
spatial, seasonal, and annual variations in the tower-estimated GPP at most
sites. The revised EC-LUE model could explain 71 % of the spatial
variations in annual GPP over 95 sites. At more than 95 % of the sites,
the correlation coefficients (R2) of seasonal changes between tower-estimated and model-simulated GPP are larger than 0.5. Particularly, the
revised EC-LUE model improved the model performance in reproducing the
interannual variations in GPP, and the averaged R2 between annual mean
tower-estimated and model-simulated GPP is 0.44 over all 55 sites with
observations longer than 5 years, which is significantly higher than those
of the original EC-LUE model (R2=0.36) and other LUE models (R2
ranged from 0.06 to 0.30 with an average value of 0.16). At the global
scale, GPP derived from light use efficiency models, machine learning
models, and process-based biophysical models shows substantial differences
in magnitude and interannual variations. The revised EC-LUE model quantified
the mean global GPP from 1982 to 2017 as 106.2±2.9 Pg C yr−1
with the trend 0.15 Pg C yr−1. Sensitivity analysis indicated that GPP
simulated by the revised EC-LUE model was sensitive to atmospheric CO2
concentration, VPD, and radiation. Over the period of 1982–2017, the
CO2 fertilization effect on the global GPP (0.22±0.07 Pg C yr−1) could be partly offset by increased VPD (-0.17±0.06 Pg C yr−1). The long-term changes in the environmental variables could be well reflected in global GPP. Overall, the revised EC-LUE model is able to
provide a reliable long-term estimate of global GPP. The GPP dataset is
available at https://doi.org/10.6084/m9.figshare.8942336.v3 (Zheng et al.,

Abstract. The last few decades have seen dramatic changes in the hydrography and
biogeochemistry of the Mediterranean Sea. The complex bathymetry and highly
variable spatial and temporal scales of atmospheric forcing, convective and
ventilation processes contribute to generate complex and unsteady
circulation patterns and significant variability in biogeochemical systems.
Part of the variability of this system can be influenced by anthropogenic
contributions. Consequently, it is necessary to document details and to
understand trends in place to better relate the observed processes and to
possibly predict the consequences of these changes. In this context we
report data from an oceanographic cruise in the Mediterranean Sea on the
German research vessel Maria S. Merian (MSM72) in March 2018. The main
objective of the cruise was to contribute to the understanding of long-term
changes and trends in physical and biogeochemical parameters, such as the
anthropogenic carbon uptake and to further assess the hydrographical
situation after the major climatological shifts in the eastern and western
part of the basin, known as the Eastern and Western Mediterranean
Transients. During the cruise, multidisciplinary measurements were conducted
on a predominantly zonal section throughout the Mediterranean Sea,
contributing to the Med-SHIP and GO-SHIP long-term repeat cruise section
that is conducted at regular intervals in the Mediterranean Sea to observe
changes and impacts on physical and biogeochemical variables. The data can

Epistemic injustice, risk mapping and climatic events: analysing epistemic resistance in the context of favela removal in Rio de Janeiro
Authors: Mendes Barbosa Luciana , Walker Gordon 
Published: November 2020

Abstract. Environmental and climate justice scholarship has increasingly focused on how knowledge and expertise play into the production of injustice and into strategies of resistance and activist claim making. We consider the epistemic injustice at work within the practices of risk mapping and assessment applied in Rio de Janeiro to justify the clearance of favela communities. We trace how in the wake of landslides in 2010, the city authorities moved towards a removal policy justified in the name of protecting lives and becoming resilient to climate change. We examine how favela dwellers, activists and counter-experts joined efforts to develop a partially successful epistemic resistance that contested the knowledge on which this policy was based. We use this case to reflect on the situated character of both technologies of risk and the emergence of epistemic resistance, on the relationship between procedural and epistemic justice, and on the challenges for instilling more just climate adaptation strategies.
Does Truth Really Matter? Notes on a Crisis of Faith
Authors: Wahman Jessica 
Published: November 2020

ABSTRACT
This essay reflects on what it would mean to have faith in the reality of truth, particularly in light of current affairs and the apparent insignificance and impotence of truth to sway opinion or affect behavior. In doing so, it draws on American pragmatism's consequentialist epistemology, C. S. Peirce's “Fixation of Belief,” and George Santayana's concept of a realm of truth.

Authors: Nasa Prashant , Nasa Ruchi , Singh Aanchal 
Published: November 2020

The Coronavirus disease-2019 (COVID-19) pandemic has inundated critical care services globally. The intensive care units (ICUs) and critical care providers have been forefront of this pandemic, evolving continuously from experiences and emerging evidence. In this review, we discuss the key lessons from the ongoing wave of COVID-19 pandemic and preparations for a future surge or second wave. The model of sustainable critical care services should be based on 1) infrastructure development, 2) preparation and training of manpower, 3) implementing standard of care and infection control, 4) sustained supply-chain and finally, and 5) surge planning.
Almost Like Waging War. Tom Regan and the Conditions for Using Violence for the Sake of Animals
Authors: Zuolo Federico 
Published: November 2020

This paper investigates Tom Regan’s attitude towards violence as a litmus test to understand the justifiability of the use of violence in animal rights activists (ARAs). Although Regan’s take seems uncontroversially against a recourse to violence, there is an ambiguity in his position. By comparing Regan’s conditions for the legitimate use of violence for the sake of animal liberation with the standard conditions for jus ad bellum, I show that Regan construed the conditions for the former in a specular manner as the conditions for the latter. However, since he was not an absolute pacifist, there is some contradiction, and he should have been more willing to justify some recourse to violence than he in fact does. I conclude by gesturing towards some possible changes that his thought should undergo in order to adjust this incoherence.
A comparison between predetermined and self-selected approaches in resistance training: effects on power performance and psychological outcomes among elite youth athletes
Authors: Watson Kevin , Halperin Israel , Aguilera-Castells Joan , Dello Iacono Antonio 
Published: November 2020

Background
The aim of this study was to investigate if choice over resistance training exercise order affects motor performance and psychological outcomes among elite youth hockey players.

Methods
Seventeen elite hockey players (male, n = 14; female, n = 3, age: 15.1 ± 1.1 years) participated in this study. In the first session, individual optimum power loads were calculated in the back squat, jump squat, bench press and bench throw exercises. Then, in four counterbalanced sessions, participants completed three sets of six repetitions in the same exercises loaded with their optimum power loads. In two sessions, athletes used a self-selected order of exercises, while in other two sessions the order was predetermined. Power outputs were estimated with a linear position transducer. Fatigue and enjoyment were measured during and after the sessions using standardized questionnaires. Repeated measures analyses of variance and a paired-sample t-test were used to compare the effects between conditions.

Results
We observed trivial to small differences between conditions in power outputs (p ≥ 0.07; ES ≤ 0.21), fatigue (p ≥ 0.42; ES ≤ 0.33) and enjoyment (p = 0.72; ES = 0.05).

Conclusion
Given the comparable effects between approaches, both can be used when coaching youth athletes. Self-selecting the order of exercises based on preferences is a feasible and practical coaching option when working with youth athletes.
Using the FRAIL scale to compare pre-existing demographic lifestyle and medical risk factors between non-frail, pre-frail and frail older adults accessing primary health care: a cross-sectional study
Authors: Aznar-Tortonda Vanessa , Palazón-Bru Antonio , Gil-Guillén Vicente Francisco 
Published: November 2020

Background
Few studies in the scientific literature have analyzed frailty status as an ordinal variable (non-frail, pre-frail and frail) rather than as a binary variable (frail vs non-frail). These studies have found that pre-frailty behaves differently from frailty (no ordinality in the variable). However, although the comparison between pre-frail and frail individuals is clinically relevant to understanding how to treat pre-frailty, this comparison was not performed in previous studies.

Materials and Methods
A cross-sectional observational study was designed with 621 older individuals aged ≥60 years in Spain in 2017–2018, determining factors associated with a higher frailty stage (non-frail, pre-frail and frail) and undertaking this comparison, in addition to measuring non-frailty. The factors assessed through a multinominal regression model were: age, sex, living alone, recent loss of the partner, income and total comorbidities.

Results
Of the total participants, 285 were non-frail (45.9%), 210 were pre-frail (33.8%) and 126 were frail (20.3%). Compared to non-frail individuals, pre-frail individuals were older, with more comorbidities and a lower income. Compared to non-frail individuals, frail individuals were more likely to be female, older, with more comorbidities and a lower income. Compared to pre-frail individuals, frail individuals were more likely to be female, older and with more comorbidities.

Conclusion
Comparison between the pre-frail and frail groups showed that frail persons were more likely to have a lower income, be female, older and have a higher number of comorbidities.
