OBJECTIVETraumatic brain injuries (TBIs) are a significant disease burden worldwide. It is imperative to improve neurosurgeons’ training during and after their medical residency with appropriate neurotrauma competencies. Unfortunately, the development of these competencies during neurosurgeons’ careers and in daily practice is very heterogeneous. This article aimed to describe the development and evaluation of a competency-based international course curriculum designed to address a broad spectrum of needs for taking care of patients with neurotrauma with basic and advanced interventions in different scenarios around the world.METHODSA committee of 5 academic neurosurgeons was involved in the task of building this course curriculum. The process started with the identification of the problems to be addressed and the subsequent performance needed. After this, competencies were defined. In the final phase, educational activities were designed to achieve the intended learning outcomes. In the end, the entire process resulted in competency and outcomes-based education strategy, including a definition of all learning activities and learning outcomes (curriculum), that can be integrated with a faculty development process, including training. Further development was completed by 4 additional academic neurosurgeons supported by a curriculum developer specialist and a project manager. After the development of the course curriculum, template programs were developed with core and optional content defined for implementation and evaluation.RESULTSThe content of the course curriculum is divided into essentials and advanced concepts and interventions in neurotrauma care. A mixed sample of 1583 neurosurgeons and neurosurgery residents attending 36 continuing medical education activities in 30 different cities around the world evaluated the course. The average satisfaction was 97%. The average usefulness score was 4.2, according to the Likert scale.CONCLUSIONSAn international competency-based course curriculum is an option for creating a well-accepted neurotrauma educational process designed to address a broad spectrum of needs that a neurotrauma practitioner faces during the basic and advanced care of patients in different regions of the world. This process may also be applied to other areas of the neurosurgical knowledge spectrum. Moreover, this process allows worldwide standardization of knowledge requirements and competencies, such that training may be better benchmarked between countries regardless of their income level.

Baseline-dependent effect of dopamine’s precursor L-tyrosine on working memory gating but not updating
Authors: Jongkees Bryant J. 
Published: March 2020

AbstractAdaptive goal-directed behavior requires a dynamic balance between maintenance and updating within working memory (WM). This balance is controlled by an input-gating mechanism implemented by dopamine in the basal ganglia. Given that dopaminergic manipulations can modulate performance on WM-related tasks, it is important to gain mechanistic insight into whether such manipulations differentially affect updating (i.e., encoding and removal) and the closely-related gate opening/closing processes that respectively enable/prevent updating. To clarify this issue, 2.0 g of dopamine’s precursor L-tyrosine was administered to healthy young adults (N = 45) in a double-blind, placebo-controlled, within-subjects study. WM processes were empirically distinguished using the reference-back paradigm, which isolates performance related to updating, gate opening, and gate closing. L-tyrosine had a selective, baseline-dependent effect only on gate opening, which was evidenced by markedly reduced variance across subjects in gate opening performance in the L-tyrosine compared with the placebo condition, whereas the whole-sample average performance did not differ between conditions. This indicates a pattern of results whereby low-performing subjects improved, whereas high-performing subjects were impaired on L-tyrosine. Importantly, this inverted U-shaped pattern was not explained by regression to the mean. These results are consistent with an inverted-U relationship between dopamine and WM, and they indicate that updating and gating are differentially affected by a dopaminergic manipulation. This highlights the importance of distinguishing these processes when studying WM, for example, in the context of WM deficits in disorders with a dopaminergic pathophysiology.

Published: March 2020

OBJECTIVE:
The study was conducted to determine the prevalence of naturally occurring maxillary midline diastema (MMD) in students of public sector medical college in Mardan, Pakistan and its association with enlarged labial frenulum.
METHODOLOGY:
The cross-sectional study was conducted in Mardan where students were assessed to determine MMD. Sample size was 150 (males 76%, n= 114; females 24%, n= 36). Ethical consideration was followed, and data was analyzed using SPSS version 17 for descriptive statistics.
RESULTS:
Only 20% (n= 30) male students were having MMD while out of these only 20% (n= 6) were having enlarged labial frenulum. No MMD was found in female students
CONCLUSION:
The maxillary midline diastema is more pronounced in male students and the authors decline the observation based on their findings that major contributing factor in MMD is because of enlarged labial frenulum.

The Relationship Between Past Experience, Empathy, and Attitudes Toward Poverty
Authors: Alexander Karen , Clary-Muronda Valerie , Smith Jamie M. , Ward Julia 
Published: March 2020

Background:
Nursing educators commonly place service-learning and simulation experiences in prelicensure public health nursing courses. These experiences have varying degrees of success in targeting gaps in students' knowledge and attitudes regarding vulnerable populations. This study sought to identify factors that are associated with attitudes toward poverty and empathy scores of senior-level prelicensure nursing students to improve pedagogy in public health nursing courses.

Method:
A cross-sectional comparison of senior-level nursing students from traditional and accelerated cohorts at a college of nursing was conducted.

Results:

Students with prior volunteer experience reported lower empathy scores compared with students who did not have prior volunteer experience (
t
[102] = −1.9,
p
< .05).

Conclusion:

Nursing educators should engage students in identifying and evaluating their personal background related to poverty when beginning a public health nursing course to address bias and create shared knowledge.

Efficacy of invasive alien plants in controlling Arionidae slugs
Authors: Laznik Ziga , Bohinc Tanja , Franin Kristijan , Majić Ivana , Trdan Stanislav 
Published: March 2020

Aim of study: To develop an alternative slug control method, we explored the use of plant material from seven invasive plant species against Arion slugs.Area of study: The experiments were performed at the University of Ljubljana (Slovenia).Material and methods: In laboratory (exp. A-C) and semi-field studies (exp. D), we investigated the contact and barrier efficacy of plant material (powder or liquid formulation) of seven invasive plant species (Japanese knotweed, bohemian knotweed, Canadian goldenrod, giant goldenrod, staghorn sumac, tree of heaven, and false indigo) against Arion slugs. In order to test a contact efficacy of the substance (exp. A), slugs were rolled in a plant material powder. In exp. B, powder made from a plant material was used as a barrier for slugs. Antifeedant effect of the slugs was tested in exp. C, where lettuce leaves were treated with a liquid formulation of a plant material. In exp. D, all above mentioned techniques were used in a semi-field trial.Main results: The results of our studies showed that the plant material of staghorn sumac, giant goldenrod, and Japanese knotweed showed the strongest anti-feedant and barrier effects against the slugs. In the semi-field trial, only 7% of the plants treated with giant goldenrod plant material were attacked by slugs.Research highlights: A contact efficacy of plant powders against Arion slugs was not confirmed in our investigation. Furthermore, several plant powders (goldenrods, staghorn sumac) showed good barrier efficacy. A semi-field trial showed that plant material (giant goldenrod) could represent an alternative solution in slug control.
FRONTIÈRES NATIONALES ET COMMERCE RÉGIONAL : QUELS ENSEIGNEMENTS POUR L’AFRIQUE CENTRALE?

Published: March 2020

Cet article analyse et évalue empiriquement l’effet des conséquences liées à l’existence des frontières nationales des pays de l’Afrique centrale sur son commerce interne. À partir de la méthode du pseudo-maximum de vraisemblance, nous estimons une équation de gravité, dérivée d’un modèle fondé théoriquement. Toutes choses égales par ailleurs, en moyenne, sur la période 1995-2010 en Afrique centrale, nos résultats montrent que la mauvaise qualité des infrastructures bilatérales, la petite taille des pays et les différences de richesse entre paires de pays, inhérentes à l’existence de frontières nationales, diminuent le commerce bilatéral de 15 %, 26 % et 19 % respectivement. Nous mettons également en évidence que ces facteurs expliquent une partie de l’effet frontière relevé dans la littérature. Ces résultats sont robustes au type de secteur considéré, à la diversification, à la volatilité des changes, aux conflits armés ainsi qu’au changement de mesure de distance.
Vivid memories of distant trauma: Examining the characteristics of trauma memories and the relationship with the centrality of event and posttraumatic stress 26 years after trauma
Authors: Blix Ines , Birkeland Marianne S. , Thoresen Siri 
Published: March 2020

SummaryIn the present study, we investigated the phenomenological characteristics of distant trauma memories and the relationship between the vividness of trauma memories, the centrality of event and symptoms of posttraumatic stress in two groups with different types of trauma exposure, namely survivors and bereaved, from the fire on the passenger ferry, Scandinavian Star, 26 years earlier. More than two decades after the fire, the traumatic event was represented as a vivid, emotional recollection for many of the victims. For both the survivors and the bereaved, a higher degree of vividness of trauma memories and centrality of the event were associated with higher levels of posttraumatic stress. The present findings show that even very distant trauma memories can be represented as vivid recollections. Furthermore, the findings suggest that both vividness of trauma memories and event centrality may contribute to explain how posttraumatic stress reactions can remain present over a very long time.
