“Lots of People Pretend…” Shame Conflicts in an Age of Digital Self-presentation and Point-scoring
Authors: KING Vera 
Published: November 2020

Abstract
The digital media have spawned new cultures of self-revelation and hence new conflicts. The downside of self-presentation, comparison, and point-scoring is identifiable in the emergence of shame conflicts that are progressively taking on new meanings. This article examines (a) the significance and transformation of shame in the context of digitization and (b) the psychosocial consequences of shifts in the boundaries between public and private manifesting themselves in the contemporary digital world. In particular, it examines changing functions, ambivalences, and affective pitfalls of self-presentation in the socialization processes of adolescence. The article is based on empirical studies.
Digital Literacy in Chinese Young People’s Engagement on Weibo
Authors: Jun FU 
Published: November 2020

Abstract
This study identifies the digital literacies generated from Chinese young people’s engagement with Weibo (one of the major Chinese social media platforms). These literacies, manifest as widely accepted community practices on Weibo, extend the prevalent understanding of digital literacy as a set of functional skills or competencies. This extended understanding of digital literacies underlines the importance of their social and cultural dimensions, showing how young people experience them as meaningful and relevant to their digital life. By drawing attention to the constitutive nature of young people’s everyday online practices, and their role in defining digital literacies, this study also highlights the significance of digital literacies for the formation of their identity as a member of digital communities, and for their practice of citizenship in digital spaces.

Published: November 2020

Terrestrial Mammal Conservation provides a thorough summary of the available scientific evidence of what is known, or not known, about the effectiveness of all of the conservation actions for wild terrestrial mammals across the world (excluding bats and primates, which are covered in separate synopses). Actions are organized into categories based on the International Union for Conservation of Nature classifications of direct threats and conservation actions. Over the course of fifteen chapters, the authors consider interventions as wide ranging as creating uncultivated margins around fields, prescribed burning, setting hunting quotas and removing non-native mammals.
This book is written in an accessible style and is designed to be an invaluable resource for anyone concerned with the practical conservation of terrestrial mammals.
The authors consulted an international group of terrestrial mammal experts and conservationists to produce this synopsis. Funding was provided by the MAVA Foundation, Arcadia and National Geographic Big Cats Initiative.
Terrestrial Mammal Conservation is the seventeenth publication in the Conservation Evidence Series, linked to the online resource www.ConservationEvidence.com. Conservation Evidence Synopses are designed to promote a more evidence-based approach to biodiversity conservation. Others in the series include Bat Conservation, Primate Conservation, Bird Conservation and Forest Conservation and more are in preparation. Expert assessment of the evidence summarised within synopses is provided online and within the annual publication What Works in Conservation.
Perceptions, Uses, and Interpretations of Uncertainty in Current Weather Forecasts by Spanish Undergraduate Students
Authors: Gómez I. , Molina S. , Olcina J. , Galiana-Merino J. J. 
Published: November 2020

AbstractThis quantitative study evaluates how 71 Spanish undergraduate students perceive and interpret the uncertainty inherent to deterministic forecasts. It is based on several questions that asked participants what they expect given a forecast presented under the deterministic paradigm for a specific lead time and a particular weather parameter. In this regard, both normal and extreme weather conditions were studied. Students’ responses to the temperature forecast as it is usually presented in the media expect an uncertainty range of ±1°–2°C. For wind speed, uncertainty shows a deviation of ±5–10 km h−1, and the uncertainty range assigned to the precipitation amount shows a deviation of ±30 mm from the specific value provided in a deterministic format. Participants perceive the minimum night temperatures as the least-biased parameter from the deterministic forecast, while the amount of rain is perceived as the most-biased one. In addition, participants were then asked about their probabilistic threshold for taking appropriate precautionary action under distinct decision-making scenarios of temperature, wind speed, and rain. Results indicate that participants have different probabilistic thresholds for taking protective action and that context and presentation influence forecast use. Participants were also asked about the meaning of the probability-of-precipitation (PoP) forecast. Around 40% of responses reformulated the default options, and around 20% selected the correct answer, following previous studies related to this research topic. As a general result, it has been found that participants infer uncertainty into deterministic forecasts, and they are mostly used to take action in the presence of decision-making scenarios. In contrast, more difficulties were found when interpreting probabilistic forecasts.

Published: November 2020

Background Intimate partner violence (IPV) refers to physical or sexual violence, stalking, and psychological aggression by an intimate partner. The present study aims to examine the incidence, injury patterns, and outcomes using a representative nationwide data set. Study Design The Nationwide Emergency Department Sample database was queried from 2010 to 2014 to identify IPV in adult patients by injury code E967.3. Demographics, diagnoses, and injury mechanisms were captured. Primary outcome was mortality, and logistic regression analyses were used to compare the baselines and outcomes. Results 132 806 IPV emergency visits were identified, with 5.1% of patients requiring hospitalization. Most patients were female (92.6%). The most common injury mechanisms were unintentional injury (36%) and striking (22.0%). Contusions of face/scalp/neck (13.2%) and unspecified head injury (6.9%) were the most common diagnoses. Males were significantly older [median and interquartile range of 39 (30, 50)] than females [33 (26, 43)], and were more frequently hospitalized (6.7% vs. 5.0%, P = .002) with more injuries with injury severity score ≥ 15 (.7% vs. .4%, P = .004) than females. Overall, IPV-related mortality was .06%, .26% in males and .05% in females ( P = .003). Older age (odds ratio (OR) = 1.053) and male gender (OR = 3.102) were significantly associated with mortality. The annual incidence rate decreased from 9.7 in 2010 to 8.2/100 000 US population in 2014 ( R2 = .659). Conclusions Young women are more likely to be victims of IPV, whereas men are more likely to be older and hospitalized with more severe injuries and worse outcomes.
Does Trade Openness Affects Employment in Cameroon?
Authors: Ngouhouo Ibrahim , Nchofoung Tii Njivukuh 
Published: November 2020

The objective of this paper is to examine the effect of trade openness on employment in Cameroon. The methodologies used in order to test our hypothesis were the FMOLS and DOLS. The results of the estimations show a positive and significant effect of trade openness on employment in Cameroon with both methods. Indeed, industrialisation and investments were found to significantly increase employment in Cameroon. As recommendations, if Cameroon envisages expanding in international trade, she should encourage sectors that have a spillover effect. These include increasing industrialisation which will lead to increase in national productivity. Furthermore, the educational system should match training with jobs. JEL Codes: F16, C22

Published: November 2020

Objectives Childcare is an important setting for nutrition; nearly half of young children in the United States participate in licensed childcare, where they consume up to two-thirds of their daily dietary intake. We compared state regulations for childcare with best practices to support breastfeeding and healthy beverage provision. Methods We reviewed regulations for childcare centers (centers) and family childcare homes (homes) in effect May–July 2016 and rated all 50 states for inclusion (1 = not included, 2 = partially included, 3 = fully included) of 12 breastfeeding and beverage best practices. We calculated average ratings for 6 practices specific to infants aged 0-11 months, 6 practices specific to children aged 1-6 years, and all 12 practices, by state and across all states. We assessed significant differences between centers and homes for each best practice by using McNemar–Bowker tests for symmetry, and we assessed differences across states by using paired student t tests. Results States included best practices in regulations for centers more often than for homes. Average ratings (standard deviations) in regulations across all states were significantly higher in centers than in homes for infant best practices (2.1 [0.5] vs 1.8 [0.5], P < .001), child best practices (2.1 [0.6] vs 1.8 [0.6], P = .002), and all 12 best practices combined (2.1 [0.5] vs 1.8 [0.6], P < .001). Conclusions Although best practices were more consistently included in regulations for centers than for homes, many state childcare regulations did not include best practices to support breastfeeding and the provision of healthy beverages. Findings can be used to inform efforts to improve regulations and to reduce differences between centers and homes.

Authors: Lelegren Matthew J. , Bloch Randall A. , Lam Kent K. 
Published: November 2020

Objectives: To provide an overview of recent techniques and technologies for the application of topical corticosteroid therapy immediately following endoscopic sinus surgery (ESS) for chronic rhinosinusitis (CRS). Methods: A comprehensive search in the PubMed and Google Scholar databases was conducted to identify publications between January 2000 and December 2019 detailing clinical trials that have evaluated the efficacy and safety of intraoperative applications of topical corticosteroids for CRS. Results: A total of 21 articles, all of which highlight a variety of corticosteroid-infused products, including Propel corticosteroid-eluting stents, NasoPore, Merocel, SinuBand, calcium alginate, and bioresorbable gel-type products, are included for review. Propel stents are the only devices that have achieved level 1A evidence in terms of efficacy and have data to support their safety. The remaining products have shown mixed results in terms of efficacy and safety. Conclusion: A wide range of techniques and technologies have been introduced to enhance the topical delivery of corticosteroids into the neosinuses after ESS for CRS. Regarding efficacy, there is level 1A evidence to support the use of Propel stents. Most of the remaining strategies show some degree of efficacy. Direct comparisons across the different strategies are limited owing to the varied uses of delivery vectors, corticosteroid choices, and doses of corticosteroids. Propel stents and SinuBand have sufficient data to support systemic and ocular safety, whereas the remaining products have limited data to support their safety.
Contemporary Role and Regulation of Over‐the‐Counter Sinonasal Medications
Authors: McCoul Edward D. 
Published: November 2020

ObjectiveNumerous pharmaceutical options are available over‐the‐counter (OTC) for the relief of sinonasal symptoms. Patients typically utilize these drugs in an unsupervised manner, without appreciation of their relative efficacy or potential for adverse effects. This review covers the scope and regulation of the OTC drug market, the pros and cons of OTC availability, and specific concerns that surround the most common classes of OTC sinonasal drugs. Suggestions are provided for the improvement of patient care and public health.Data SourcesMEDLINE publications and market reports.Review MethodsLiterature review.ConclusionsSome of the most commonly used OTC sinonasal remedies, including decongestants and first‐generation antihistamines, are less effective than alternative drugs and pose potential safety concerns.Implications for PracticeClinicians should advocate to their patients for the appropriate use of alternative agents, such as intranasal corticosteroids and newer‐generation antihistamines, and discourage the unsupervised use of oral and topical decongestants. Furthermore, health care practitioners should encourage dialogue with their patients about the use of OTC sinonasal remedies, with the goals of optimizing individual health and health care delivery.

Published: November 2020

Background Liver transplant hepatic venous anastomoses are usually created using “bicaval” or “piggyback” techniques, which may result in unfavorable angulation between the inferior vena cava and hepatic veins, and makes hepatic vein catheterization and tissue sampling during transjugular liver biopsy (TLB) technically challenging. Purpose To compare the technical successes and complications of TLBs for recipients of liver transplants with bicaval and piggyback hepatic vein anastomoses. Material and Methods Information on type of hepatic vein surgical anastomosis was available for 190 adult patients in whom 306 consecutive TLBs were performed during 2009–2017: 158 with bicaval and 148 with piggyback anastomoses. The primary outcome of procedural success was defined as obtaining a tissue sample sufficient to make a pathologic diagnosis. Results A technical success rate of 97% with adequate liver tissue for diagnosis was similar between the anastomotic groups ( P = 0.50). TLB was unsuccessful in 3% of patients with piggyback anastomoses due to unfavorable hepatic venous anatomy whereas biopsy was successful in all patients with bicaval anastomoses ( P = 0.02). Fluoroscopy times were not significantly different (12.1 vs. 13.9 min, P = 0.08). Rates of major complication were similar between the two groups (3% vs. 3%, P > 0.99). Conclusion TLB is safe and effective for liver transplant patients regardless of the type of hepatic vein anastomosis. While failure to catheterize or advance the stiffened biopsy cannula into the hepatic vein is more likely to occur in patients with piggyback anastomoses, this is a rare occurrence.
Public perception of medicinal and recreational cannabis and its effect on mental health: a survey of a regional Australian town
Authors: Webb Matthew , Mansfield Kylie 
Published: November 2020

Objective: To investigate beliefs about treatment capabilities of medicinal cannabis (MC), the effect of recreational cannabis (RC) on mental health and online cannabis search trends. Method: Participants ( n = 117) completed an online survey, and search engine optimisation software was used to analyse internet search trends. Results: Half the participants perceived RC as harmful to mental health but were uncertain if it impairs treatment for depression or prevents anxiety. Participants believed MC can treat depression and/or anxiety. The Google keyword ‘CBD oil’ is most popular when seeking cannabis information and provides misinformation. Conclusion: Australians are exposed to misinformation about MC online, explaining why participants believed that MC could treat anxiety and/or depression and why there is a reduction in the belief that RC is harmful to mental health. Health authorities should incorporate search engine optimisation strategies to provide accurate information about cannabis.

Published: November 2020

Background: 40 million people in the world are in need of palliative care, but only one-seventh of that population receive services. Underuse of palliative care in low resource countries exacerbates suffering in patients with life limiting illnesses such as cancer. Objectives: The current study was conducted to identify barriers, facilitators and recommended strategies for informing development of a home-based palliative care intervention for poor and medically underserved rural patients in Kolkata, India. Methods: Semi-structured interviews were conducted with 20 clinical and patient stakeholders in Kolkata, India. Questions queried current practices for delivering palliative care, along with barriers, facilitators and optimal strategies for implementing homebased palliative care. Results: We identified some key barriers to palliative care delivery in rural areas: lack of access to palliative care till late stages; patients unaware of their cancer stage; lack of affordability of medication and treatment costs; transportation challenges to access care; strict morphine distribution regulations making it challenging for patients to obtain morphine; cultural factors discouraging patients from seeking palliative care; resistance from medical community to use “rural medical practitioners (RMPs)” to deliver care. We also identified important facilitators, including availability of existing palliative care infrastructure at the cancer center, network of RMPs to serve as CHWs to facilitate palliative care delivery, low morphine cost and family support system for patients. Conclusion: Our findings provide evidence that a palliative care intervention which leverages an existing CHW infrastructure may be a feasible model for expanding the reach of palliative care to rural underserved patients.
Feasibility and Acceptability of Digital Legacy-Making: An Innovative Story-Telling Intervention for Adults With Cancer
Authors: DeSanto-Madeya Susan , Tjia Jennifer , Fitch Christina , Wachholtz Amy 
Published: November 2020

Background: This study examined the feasibility, burden and acceptability of a legacy-making intervention in adults with cancer and preliminary effects on patient quality-of-life (QOL) measures. Method: We conducted a Stage IB pilot, intervention study. The intervention was a digital video legacy-making interview of adults with advanced cancer to create a digital video of their memories and experiences. Baseline and post-video QOL assessments included: Functional Assessment of Cancer Therapy—General (FACT-G), Patient Dignity Inventory (PDI), Hospital Anxiety and Depression Scale (HADS), and Emotional Thermometers for distress, anxiety, anger, help and depression. Participants received a final copy of the digital video for distribution to their families. Results: Adults (n = 16) ages 38-83 years old with an advanced or life-limiting cancer diagnosis completed an intervention. Feasibility and acceptability was strong with 0% attrition. While the pilot study was not powered for quantitative significance, there were changes from baseline to post-intervention in the participants’ total or subscale FACT-G scores, PDI, HADS anxiety or depression scores, and Emotional Thermometer scores. Conclusions: A digital video legacy-making intervention is feasible for adults with cancer without significant negative outcomes for individuals completing the study. It remains unclear whether this intervention contributes to positive quality of life outcomes.
Weightbearing Computed Tomography and 3-Dimensional Analysis of Mobility Changes of the First Ray After Proximal Oblique Osteotomy for Hallux Valgus
Authors: Kimura Tadashi , Kubota Makoto , Suzuki Naoki , Hattori Asaki , Saito Mitsuru 
Published: November 2020

Background: Hypermobility of the first ray has been evaluated using various methods and has conventionally been considered to be involved in the pathology of hallux valgus. We hypothesized that hypermobility of the first ray in hallux valgus could be decreased by simply correcting foot alignment without arthrodesis. This study sought to evaluate first-ray mobility using weightbearing computed tomography (CT) before and after proximal oblique osteotomy and also in healthy volunteer’s feet. Methods: Subjects were 11 feet of 11 patients with primary hallux valgus who underwent surgery with a plantarly applied anatomic precontoured locking plate and 22 feet of 11 matched healthy volunteers. We performed nonweightbearing and weightbearing (using a load equivalent to body weight) CT scans using an original loading device preoperatively and 1-1.5 years postoperatively. Three-dimensional displacement of the distal bone relative to the proximal bone was quantified for each joint of the first ray by comparing nonweightbearing and weightbearing CT images. Results: At baseline, there were significant differences in hallux valgus angle ( P < .001) and 1-2 intermetatarsal angle ( P < .001) between healthy volunteer’s feet and preoperative hallux valgus feet. Hallux valgus angle ( P < .001) and 1-2 intermetatarsal angle ( P < .001) differed significantly between before and after surgery. All first ray joint displacement under loading decreased postoperatively to within 2° of that in healthy volunteer’s feet and showed no significant difference between postoperatively hallux valgus feet and healthy volunteer’s feet ( P > .05). Conclusions: We found that first metatarsal osteotomy even without arthrodesis corrected deformity and decreased mobility of the first ray after hallux valgus surgery. Level of Evidence: Level III, case-control study.
