Les stratégies de coping et le sentiment d’efficacité personnelle face aux évaluations sommatives
Authors: Mabilon Alexandre 
Published: December 2024

Cet article tente d’appréhender les stratégies de coping déployées par les adolescents dans le cadre des évaluations sommatives (Zimmer-Gembeck & Skinner, 2016) et d’approfondir la relation entre ces stratégies, le stress ressenti et le sentiment d’efficacité personnelle (Bandura et al., 2003) perçu par une population en pleine période de développement. Les données sont issues de mesures autorapportées auprès d’un échantillon de 660 élèves de l’enseignement secondaire. Les résultats montrent que l’investissement dans un style de coping (Connor-Smith & Flachsbart, 2007) axé sur la résolution du problème perçu et la recherche de soutien social favorise l’amoindrissement du stress ainsi que le développement du sentiment d’efficacité personnelle. La recherche permet de mettre en évidence les défis liés au stress et à sa gestion face aux activités stressantes que représentent les évaluations sommatives. Elle offre également l’occasion de souligner le rôle de l’environnement d’apprentissage dans l’utilisation des évaluations sommatives afin de limiter les conséquences négatives pour l’apprentissage des adolescents.
Landtimescaping with Rossedalen
Authors: Illeris Helene , Fossnes Anne-May , Anundsen Tormod Wallem 
Published: December 2024

This article develops and explores ‘landtimescaping’ as an a/r/tographic practice that can help us as humans to expand and (re-)create our relationships to the Land. Through a/r/tographic fieldwork in Rossedalen, a valley situated in Southern Norway close to the city of Arendal, the authors experiment over time with different ways of being-with the Land. The aim is to contribute to art, research and education as worlding practices that facilitate diverse ways of sensing, relating and acting with other-than-human forms of being. By relating to Karen Barad’s theories of spacetimemattering, the verb ‘landtimescaping’ is coined to generate new knowledge through specific embodied practices, such as walks with locals and repeated visits to a certain spot. More specifically, three ‘landtimescapings’ are brought to life by intertwining different textual-visual approaches: Landtimescaping #1 –The neglected forest. Circles and cycles, Landtimescaping #2 – Deforestation. Life interrupted. Life to (be)come, and Landtimescaping #3 – The Quarry. Swallowing an event. In the final part of the article, the potentialities of landtimescaping for the practices of art, research, and education are discussed in order to open for a (re-)orientation of these separate forms of knowing towards entangled, fluid and open ways of existing.

Analysis of the current status of knowledge, attitudes, and practices among stroke-related healthcare professionals in the treatment of shoulder pain in hemiplegic patients
Authors: Huang Bin , Gao Feng 
Published: December 2024

Objective
To investigate the current status of knowledge, attitude, and practice (KAP) of healthcare professionals in stroke-related departments of primary-level tertiary hospitals regarding the prevention and treatment of hemiplegic shoulder pain, and to analyze influencing factors. This aims to provide a reference for further training, guidance, and management of hemiplegic shoulder pain.

Methods
A total of 123 healthcare professionals from stroke-related departments of two tertiary hospitals in a county-level city in Zhejiang province were selected as the research subjects from March 6, 2023, to March 14, 2023. Written informed consent was obtained from all study participants prior to their inclusion in the study. A questionnaire survey was conducted to assess their KAP status on the prevention and treatment of hemiplegic shoulder pain, and statistical analysis was performed using SPSS 23.

Results
The scores for knowledge (29.97 ± 9.94), attitude (27.7 ± 2.81), and behavior (29.86 ± 7.86) among the 123 healthcare professionals indicated that department and position were influencing factors for KAP (P < 0.05).

Conclusion
The overall KAP of healthcare professionals in stroke-related departments of primary hospitals regarding the prevention and treatment of hemiplegic shoulder pain needs improvement. Strengthening relevant knowledge and skills training is necessary to reduce the incidence of hemiplegic shoulder pain and improve patients’ quality of life.
Correlation between hematological indicators in acclimatized high-altitude individuals and acute mountain sickness
Authors: Li Zhicai , Xiao Jun , Li Cuiying , Li Xiaowei , Ren Daoju 
Published: December 2024

Background
The impact of acute mountain sickness (AMS) on individuals ascending to plateaus, soon after exposure to high altitudes, is well-documented. However, the specific relationship between AMS and alterations in blood parameters remains unclear.

Methods
A total of 40 healthy volunteers were recruited. Following their arrival at an altitude of 3,300 m, an AMS questionnaire survey was administered 48 h later. Based on the AMS scores obtained, participants were categorized into three groups: non-AMS, mild AMS, and moderate/severe AMS (encompassing both moderate and severe cases). Blood routine tests were performed on all groups at 3-, 7-, and 30-days post-arrival at the plateau, with blood oxygen saturation tests conducted at 3 and 30 days after rapidly entering the plateau.

Results
In the current investigation, a total of 40 participants were stratified into non-AMS (n = 24), mild-AMS (n = 8), and moderate/severe-AMS (n = 8) cohorts subsequent to rapid ascension to an altitude of 3,300 m. The incidence of AMS in this study was 40%. Noteworthy elevations in red blood cells (RBC), hemoglobin (Hb), and hematocrit (HCT) levels were noted at the 3-day mark post-ascent across all delineated groups. By the 7th day, the moderate/severe-AMS cohort displayed sustained increments in Hb and HCT levels, whereas solely HCT levels rose in the mild-AMS and non-AMS cohorts. Upon reaching the 30-day milestone, the moderate/severe-AMS group demonstrated a reduction in RBC, Hb, and HCT levels, while only HCT levels decreased in the mild-AMS and non-AMS groups. Furthermore, it was observed that all groups exhibited notable reductions in oxygen saturation (SpO2) at 3 days post-ascent, followed by a partial recovery at 30 days, albeit remaining below baseline levels. The correlation analysis results indicated that RBC, Hb, and HCT exhibited a positive correlation with the severity of AMS after a 7-day acclimatization period at high altitude. Conversely, SpO2 demonstrated a negative correlation with the severity of AMS following the same duration at high altitude. The findings of the study suggest a strong association between alterations in RBC, Hb, and HCT levels and AMS, particularly among individuals in the moderate/severe-AMS category who displayed more significant fluctuations in these parameters.

Conclusion
Individuals suffering from moderate to severe AMS demonstrated increased levels of RBC, Hb, and HCT, as well as reduced SpO2, indicating a greater need for oxygen adaptation to high-altitude hypoxia. These findings emphasize the physiological adjustments to high altitudes and their potential implications for the treatment of AMS.

Aims: To standardize the optimum sucrose concentration in shooting and rooting medium in micropropagation of valuable aquascape plant Echinodorus grisebachii.
Study Design: CRD.
Place and Duration of Study: Department of Floriculture and Landscaping, College of Agriculture Vellayani 2022-2024.
Methodology: In this study, eight treatments were evaluated separately for their effectiveness in shooting and rooting medium. For the shooting medium, 2 mgL-1 BAP (6-Benzylaminopurine) and 3 sucrose concentrations (10, 20,30) gL⁻¹ were used in the MS medium and half-strength MS medium. For rooting medium 3.0 mgL⁻¹ IBA (Indole-3-butyric acid), three concentrations of sucrose as in shooting medium were tried.
Results: The result of the study showed that out of 8 treatments tried for shooting medium MS + 2mgL-1 + 30 gL⁻¹ sucrose was best resulted in Shoot initiation (100 %), Minimum days to shoot emergence (6.17), Maximum number of shoots (9.83), Longest shoot (10.33) and maximum number of leaves (31). For rooting medium ½ MS + 3.0 mgL⁻¹ IBA + 30 gL⁻¹ sucrose was best resulted in minimum number of days in root emergence (12.58) and maximum root initiation percentage (99.25).
Conclusion: An effective concentration of sucrose was standardized for Echinodorus grisebachii.

Published: December 2019

AbstractSocial status impacts stress in primates, but the direction of the effect differs depending on species, social style, and group stability. This complicates our ability to identify broadly applicable principles for understanding how social status impacts health and fitness. One reason for this is the fact that social status is often measured as linear dominance rank, yet social status is more complex than simply high or low rank. Additionally, most research on social status and health ignores the effects of sex and sex‐specific relationships, despite known differences in disease risk, coping strategies, and opposite‐sex dominance interactions between males and females in many species. We examine the influence of social status, sex, and opposite‐sex interactions on hair cortisol concentrations (HCC) in a well‐studied species, rhesus macaques, where the literature predicts low ranking individuals would experience more chronic stress. Animals in three captive, seminaturalistic social groups (N = 252; 71 male) were observed for 6 weeks to obtain metrics of social status (rank and dominance certainty [DC]). DC is a measure of one's fit within the hierarchy. Hair samples were collected from each subject and analyzed for HCC. Generalized linear mixed models were used to examine (a) whether rank, DC, or sex predicted HCC; (b) whether same‐ or opposite‐sex dominance relationships differentially impacted HCC; and (c) whether aggressive interactions initiated or received could explain any observed relationships. Results indicated that DC, not rank, predicted HCC in a sex‐specific manner. For males, high HCC were predicted by receiving aggression from or having high DC with other males as well as having low DC with females. For females, only high DC with males predicted high HCC. These results likely relate to sex‐specific life history pattern differences in inherited versus earned rank that are tied to female philopatry and male immigration.
Conditionality in the context of housing‐led homelessness policy: Comparing Australia’s Housing First agenda to Scotland’s “rights‐based” approach
Authors: Clarke Andrew , Watts Beth , Parsell Cameron 
Published: December 2019

AbstractHomelessness services and policy have historically tended to be organised by an explicitly conditional logic, wherein people experiencing homelessness must prove their “housing readiness” before accessing settled housing. This model has been robustly challenged in recent decades by “housing‐led” approaches that ostensibly eschew conditionality and prioritise the rapid rehousing of people experiencing homelessness. Various countries now include housing‐led approaches in the national policy frameworks, including Australia, which overhauled its approach to homelessness in 2008, and Scotland, where a housing‐led approach is supported by a legal right to housing for homeless households. Notwithstanding this policy shift, conditionality remains an enduring feature of responses to homelessness in both jurisdictions. This paper sheds light on this phenomenon by comparing the Australian experience with that of Scotland. We demonstrate how conditionality remains a feature of both jurisdictions; however, there is greater effort in Scotland to identify and minimise conditionality, whereas in Australia it is able to persist relatively unchallenged. We conclude with some reflections on what Australia can learn from Scotland’s relative success, highlighting the importance of a national‐level policy framework and an adequate affordable housing supply.

AimAccidental hypothermia in urban settings is associated with high mortality rates. However, the predictors of mortality remain under discussion. The purpose of this study was to evaluate prognostic factors and develop a prediction model in patients with accidental hypothermia in urban settings.MethodsWe retrospectively reviewed medical records in patients with hypothermia brought to our hospital by ambulance in a 7‐year study period. Patients’ records of survival discharge or in‐hospital death and clinical data were collected from medical records. We analyzed factors to predict in‐hospital death using multiple logistic regression analysis. Recursive partitioning analysis was used to construct a prediction model using predictors from multiple logistic regression analysis.ResultsIn the study period, 192 patients were included in this study. Of them, 154 patients were discharged alive and 38 patients died. Multiple logistic regression analysis revealed that in‐hospital death was related to Glasgow Coma Scale (GCS) score, prothrombin time – international normalized ratio (PT‐INR) value, and fibrin degradation product (FDP). Recursive partitioning analysis revealed that patients with accidental hypothermia could be divided into four groups: very high risk (FDP ≥ 14 µg/mL, PT‐INR ≥ 1.4), high risk (FDP ≥ 14 µg/mL, PT‐INR < 1.4), moderate risk (FDP < 14 µg/mL, GCS < 10), and low risk (FDP < 14 µg/mL, GCS ≥ 10).ConclusionHigh FDP and PT‐INR values and low GCS score on arrival at the emergency department were associated with in‐hospital mortality in urban patients with hypothermia. A simple prediction model for grouping risk was developed using these predictors.

Published: December 2019

ObjectiveSensory dysfunction is a common consequence of many forms of neurological injury, including stroke and nerve damage. Rehabilitative paradigms that incorporate sensory retraining can provide modest benefits, but the majority of patients are left with lasting sensory loss. We have developed a novel strategy that uses closed‐loop vagus nerve stimulation (VNS) paired with tactile rehabilitation to enhance synaptic plasticity and facilitate recovery of sensory function.MethodsA clinical case report provides initial evidence that a similar implementation of closed‐loop VNS paired with a tactile rehabilitation regimen could improve recovery of somatosensory function. Here, we sought to build on these promising initial clinical data and rigorously evaluate the ability of VNS paired with tactile rehabilitation to improve recovery in an animal model of chronic sensory loss. The study design, including planned sample size, assessments, and statistical comparisons, was preregistered prior to beginning data collection (https://osf.io/xsnj5/).ResultsVNS paired with tactile rehabilitation resulted in a significant and nearly complete recovery of mechanosensory withdrawal thresholds. Equivalent tactile rehabilitation without VNS failed to improve sensory function. This VNS‐dependent restoration of sensory thresholds was maintained for several months after the cessation of stimulation, illustrating long‐term benefits. Moreover, VNS paired with tactile rehabilitation resulted in significant generalized improvements in other measures of sensorimotor forepaw function.InterpretationGiven the safety and tolerability of VNS therapy, these findings suggest that incorporating VNS paired with sensory retraining into rehabilitative regimens may represent a fundamentally new method to increase recovery of sensory function after neurological injury.

Fabrication and characterization of nanoencapsulated epoxy resin/crosslinked PMMA shells with in situ polymerization via phase inversion emulsion (PIE) method
Authors: Bidgoli Mahboobeh Allahyarzadeh , Hayaty Mehran 
Published: December 2019

ABSTRACTEncapsulated epoxy resin healing agents with poly(methyl methacrylate (PMMA) as a thermoplastic polymeric shell are suffered from leakage of the core after a while. This problem leads to loss of their performance and its ability in self‐healing systems. One way to stop or reduce the leakage of the core is crosslinking the PMMA shell. In this study, nanoencapsulation of epoxy healing agent with crosslinked PMMA as shell was carried out by in situ polymerization via phase inversion emulsion method. Ethylene glycol dimethacrylate was employed as crosslinking agent. Nonionic (SPAN 60) and ionic (sodium dodecyl sulfate) surfactants were used for competitive adsorption and phase inversion in emulsion system. Chemical structures, morphologies, and thermal properties of nanocapsules were characterized by Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy, field emission scanning electron microscopy, differential scanning calorimetry, and thermogravimetric analysis, respectively. SEM investigations showed that nanocapsules had a particle size of less than 100 nm with a narrow particle size distribution. Efficiency of nanoencapsulation was equal to 83.5%. And synthesized nanocapsules had at least 37% core contents. Nanocapsules with crosslinked shell were able to maintain liquid core up to 18 weeks, while, noncrosslinked shell lost core content after 14 weeks. It seems that low crosslink density has no effect on capsule durability. © 2019 Wiley Periodicals, Inc. J. Appl. Polym. Sci. 2020, 137, 48793.

Published: December 2019

Abstract

Background
Topical administration of tranexamic acid (TXA) may be an alternative to intravenous administration to reduce bleeding with a lower risk of systemic adverse events. The aim of this study was to investigate whether moistening a surgical wound with TXA before closure, leaving a thin film of drug only, would reduce postoperative bleeding.

Methods
This was a two-centre, stratified, parallel-group, placebo-controlled, double-blind RCT. Patients undergoing mastectomy with or without axillary lymph node clearance were randomized 1 : 1 to moistening of wound surface before closure with either 25 mg/ml TXA or 0·9 per cent sodium chloride (placebo). The primary endpoint was postoperative bleeding as measured by drain production in the first 24 h. Secondary endpoints were early haematoma, total drain production, postoperative complications and late aspirations of seroma within 3 months.

Results
Between 1 January 2016 and 31 August 2018, 208 patients were randomized. Two patients were converted to a different surgical procedure at surgery, and four did not receive the intervention owing to technical error. Thus, 202 patients were included in the study (101 in the TXA and 101 in the placebo group). TXA reduced mean drain production at 24 h (110 versus 144 ml; mean difference 34 (95 per cent c.i. 8 to 60) ml, P = 0·011). One patient in the TXA group had early haematoma compared with seven in the placebo group (odds ratio (OR) 0·13 (95 per cent c.i. 0·02 to 1·07); P = 0·057). There was no significant difference in postoperative complications between TXA and placebo (13 versus 10; OR 1·11 (0·45 to 2·73), P = 0·824) or need for late seroma aspirations (79 versus 67 per cent; OR 1·83 (0·91 to 3·68), P = 0·089).

Conclusion
Moistening the wound with TXA 25 mg/ml before closure reduces postoperative bleeding within the first 24 h in patients undergoing mastectomy. Registration number: NCT02627560 (https://clinicaltrials.gov).
