Long‐term effects of the nine‐item list intervention on obstetric and neonatal outcomes in Robson group 1 – A time series study
Authors: Hildebrand Eric , Nelson Marie , Blomberg Marie 
Published: August 2020

AbstractIntroductionThe nine‐item list, with organizational and cultural changes, was implemented at the delivery unit in Linköping, Sweden between 2007 and 2010, aiming at improving the quality of care by offering more women a safe and attractive vaginal delivery. The target group for the intervention was nulliparous women at term with spontaneous onset of labor and cephalic presentation (Robson group 1). The aim of this study was to evaluate pregnancy outcomes before, during, early post and late post introduction of the nine‐item list.Material and methodsRobson group 1 births (n = 12 763) from 2004 to 2018 were divided into four time periods; before the nine‐item list (2004‐2006), during introduction of the nine‐item list (2007‐2010), early post introduction of the nine‐item list (2011‐2014) and late post introduction of the nine‐item list (2015‐2018). The nine‐item list consists of monitoring of obstetric results, midwife coordinator, risk classification of women, three midwife‐competence levels, teamwork—the midwife, obstetrician and nurse working as a team with the common goal of a normal delivery, obstetric morning round, fetal monitoring skills and obstetric skills training. Perinatal outcomes before, during, early post and late post introduction were compared using a Student's t test for numerical variables and a Pearson chi‐squared test for categorical variables.ResultsApgar score <7 at 5 minutes, Apgar score <4 at 5 minutes and umbilical cord arterial pH <7 did not differ significantly between the four time periods. Between before introduction and early post introduction, instrumental vaginal delivery decreased from 19.8% to 12.2% and cesarean section from 9.6% to 4.5%. The late post introduction period showed a maintained effect with 10.7% instrumental deliveries and 3.9% cesarean sections. Obstetric anal sphincter injury grade III decreased instantly during the introduction of the nine‐item list from 7.8% to 5.1% and thereafter remained unchanged.ConclusionsImplementation of the nine‐item list increased the proportion of spontaneous vaginal deliveries by reducing the number of instrumental deliveries and cesarean sections without affecting the neonatal outcomes in nulliparous women with spontaneous onset of labor. The nine‐item list intervention seems to provide long‐term sustainable results.

AbstractThis study extends prior research on the relationships between personality constructs and types of psychological contracts by exploring how the Big Five traits predict balanced psychological contracts. Further, we determine whether epistemic curiosity and rule‐following behavior are key mediators of the proposed relationships. We tested our proposed hypotheses using three‐wave time‐lagged data from 469 respondents. The results indicated that openness to experience was positively associated and both conscientiousness and neuroticism were negatively associated with balanced contracts. Extraversion and agreeableness were not associated with balanced contracts. We also established the mediating role of epistemic curiosity in the relationships between personality traits and balanced contracts, but there was no support for the mediating role of rule‐following behavior in the present study. These findings have important implications for managers and organizations in terms of selecting the right person for a job (person‐job fit) and ensuring employee retention (person‐organization fit), hence having a bottom‐line effect on firm performance. Future research directions are also discussed.

Published: August 2020

SummaryAcute promyelocytic leukaemia (APL) represents a modern success of precision medicine. However, fatalities occurring within the first 30 days of induction treatment, in particular intracranial haemorrhage (ICH), remain the main causes of death. We studied the clinico‐biological characteristics of 13 patients with APL who experienced ICH. Compared to 85 patients without this complication, patients with ICH were older and more frequently had high‐risk APL. Moreover, positivity for the ‘swirl’ sign at neuroradiological imaging and hydrocephalus were predictors of a fatal outcome, together with lower fibrinogen, prolonged international normalized ratio (INR) and higher lactate dehydrogenase levels.

Published: August 2020

AbstractProliferative nodules arising within congenital melanocytic nevi often present a diagnostic challenge given a close resemblance to melanoma. Several morphologic variants have been characterized. In difficult cases, ancillary molecular tests can be used to better exclude the possibility of malignant degeneration. Herein, we report a case of an unusual proliferative nodule with overlapping features of angiomatoid Spitz tumor and ancient melanocytic nevus, which demonstrated normal findings on both chromosomal microarray and a gene expression profiling assay.
EB (epidermolysis bullosa)‐House Austria: Pioneering work for the care of patients with rare diseases
Authors: Prodinger Christine , Laimer Martin , Bauer Johann W. , Hintner Helmut 
Published: August 2020

SummaryThe care of patients with epidermolysis bullosa (EB) poses a major challenge due to the rarity, heterogeneity and complexity of the disease as well as the occurrence of numerous primary and secondary extracutaneous manifestations, causing a significant morbidity and mortality. Specialized treatment centers are essential for offering these patients adequate care, including individual, interdisciplinary coordinated treatments according to current medical standards, and access to innovative therapeutic options. Against this background, the EB House Austria was founded in 2005 and designated the first national center of expertise for genodermatoses with a focus on EB in 2017. In the same year, it became a member of the European Reference Network for Rare Skin Diseases (ERN Skin). The pillars of this institution (outpatient clinic, research unit, academy, clinical study center) interact closely with each other, with numerous national and international clinical and scientific partners, as well as with patients and their relatives via the DEBRA Austria patient group. The development of the EB House Austria as a reference center is characterized by a long‐term pioneering work, which in turn could pave the way for the optimization of care for comparable diseases as well as general care structures.
Data‐Driven Rolling Horizon Approach for Dynamic Design of Supply Chain Distribution Networks under Disruption and Demand Uncertainty
Authors: Fattahi Mohammad , Govindan Kannan 
Published: August 2020

ABSTRACTWe address the dynamic design of supply chain networks in which the moments of demand distribution function are uncertain and facilities’ availability is stochastic because of possible disruptions. To incorporate the existing stochasticity in our dynamic problem, we develop a multi‐stage stochastic program to specify the optimal location, capacity, inventory, and allocation decisions. Further, a data‐driven rolling horizon approach is developed to use observations of the random parameters in the stochastic optimization problem. In contrast to traditional stochastic programming approaches that are valid only for a limited number of scenarios, the rolling horizon approach makes the determined decisions by the stochastic program implementable in practice and evaluates them. The stochastic program is presented as a quadratic conic optimization, and to generate an efficient scenario tree, a forward scenario tree construction technique is employed. An extensive numerical study is carried out to investigate the applicability of the presented model and rolling horizon procedure, the efficiency of risk‐measurement policies, and the performance of the scenario tree construction technique. Several key practical and managerial insights related to the dynamic supply chain network design under uncertainty are gained based on the computational results.

Published: August 2020

AimTo analyse the development of motor skill and executive function in school‐aged children with and without developmental coordination disorder (DCD).MethodUsing a longitudinal design, 186 children (86 males, 100 females) aged 6 to 11 years at Time 1 were tested over a 2‐year period, 52 of whom were diagnosed with DCD at Time 1 (27 males, 25 females; mean age 8y 5mo, SD 1y 6mo) using DSM‐5 criteria. The McCarron Assessment of Neuromuscular Development assessed motor status at Time 1 and at 2‐year follow‐up (Time 2). Executive function was assessed using a well‐validated measure, the Groton Maze Learning Test.ResultsThe DCD cohort at Time 1 had moderate incidence of executive function deficit (41%). Most importantly, at a group level, children with persisting DCD (across Times 1 and 2) also showed significantly lower levels of executive function than children with typical motor development at both time points. At an individual level, around 26% of children in this group had persisting executive function deficits relative to normal ranges of performance.InterpretationChildren with persisting DCD are at significant risk of executive function issues. The combination of motor and cognitive issues as a potential risk factor in the longer‐term development of children is discussed.What this paper adds

Around half of children initially diagnosed with developmental coordination disorder (DCD) had the same diagnosis at 2‐year follow‐up.

41% of children with DCD have impaired executive function.

Children with persisting DCD show poorer executive function than those with typical motor development or remitting DCD.

AbstractBackgroundIschemia‐reperfusion injury (IRI) frequently follows successful PCI for STEMI and is recognized by multiple modalities. Multilayer speckle tracking echocardiography (STE) has the potential of detecting myocardial dysfunction in different myocardial layers. Our objective was to describe the changes in layer‐specific myocardial function over the 24 hours after successful PCI for ST‐elevation myocardial infarction (STEMI).MethodsPatients (n = 120) with STEMI and no prior myocardial infarction underwent echocardiography prior to PCI, immediately after and at 3‐ and 24‐hours post‐PCI. Worsening focal dysfunction (WFD) was defined as an immediate reduction, compared to the pre‐PCI value, in the amplitude of endo‐myocardial longitudinal strain (endo‐MLS) within the infarction territory.ResultsPatients with WFD (52%) had further reductions in endo‐MLS, mid‐MLS, and epi‐MLS in the infarction region immediately post‐PCI; at 3 hours strain began to improve and continued to improve at 24 hours. Reductions of endo‐MLS strain were more evident than those of global, mid‐MLS, and epi‐MLS. This same pattern was seen in each of the ischemic territories of the anterior descending, circumflex, and right coronary arteries. Immediate improvement in endo‐MLS following PCI was seen in 48% of patients. The time from symptom onset to balloon time was markedly longer in those with WFD (P < .0001).ConclusionsMultilayer SPE is a sensitive method that identifies serial alterations in focal myocardial function following successful PCI for STEMI. Layer‐specific reductions in endo‐MLS appeared more evident than decreases in global LV strain. Prolonged total ischemic time prior to PCI was directly related to the incidence of WFD.
The impact of an electronic guide on students’ self‐directed learning in simulation clinic
Authors: Terry Andrew , Liu Danny , Divnic‐Resnik Tihana 
Published: August 2020

AbstractIntroductionSimulation training on high‐fidelity simulated models have been used to provide a safe and effective training platform for dental students to develop the skills necessary to treat patients. To surpass challenges of traditional pedagogies in simulation training and reinforce self‐directed learning, a bespoke computer application, PerioPal, was designed to complement training of dental students in periodontal instrumentation.Materials and methodsThis study evaluated the impact of PerioPal on a cohort of 92 second‐year dental students at an Australian University. During the first semester in 2019, they received traditional simulation periodontal instrumentation training (control semester). In the following semester, PerioPal was implemented as a technological teaching adjunct (intervention semester). Student perceptions of their learning experiences were gathered through a qualitative and quantitative questionnaire. Impact on student performance was evaluated through comparing periodontal instrumental assessment results in control and interventionsemesters.ResultsWith introduction of PerioPal, students perceived that the simulation clinic learning environment, better contributed to the speed at which they learnt new instrumentation as well as being able to self‐pace their work. They commented that instructional videos and independent learning were most beneficial. Interestingly, students suggested that PerioPal aided their preparation for theoretical assessments more than their practical assessments. After introduction of PerioPal a minor improvement of average practical assessment marks was observed but could not be statistically confirmed as significant.ConclusionAlthough the computer‐supported learning did not lead to improvement of the students’ practical performance a positive effect on the student self‐paced learning experience and engagement in simulated environment were observed.
The Holy and Great Council – Communication of the Church Message
Authors: Briskina‐Müller Anna 
Published: August 2020

AbstractThe article examines the impressions of observers about the Holy and Great Council in Crete in 2016 that have been most discussed, above all a strong competition between national churches and their leaders, and an enormous discrepancy between the agendas seen as urgent by hierarchs and by laypeople. While the fathers of the council based their work on categories of late antiquity, communicating a lack of interest about the “secular” reality, laypeople have stressed a hermeneutic rethinking of Byzantine identity, of Orthodox hermeneutics, of making people aware of and interpreting the historical heritage of Orthodoxy. On the one hand, observers received a message of a lack not only of Orthodox unity, but even of the interpretation of what that unity should consist of. On the other hand, the council unintentionally mobilized Orthodox people worldwide for unity, gathering at the first congress of the International Orthodox Theological Association three years after the council.
The Mission of the Church in the Contemporary World in Light of the Decisions of the Holy and Great Council
Authors: Metropolitan Nifon of Targoviste  
Published: August 2020

AbstractThis article discusses the place of mission in the Orthodox Church. The document “The Mission of the Orthodox Church in Today's World,” which was approved by the Holy and Great Council of the Orthodox Church held in Crete in 2016, is still in the process of reception, as are the other documents, but it constitutes, without doubt, a new era in Orthodox missiology – as indeed the Great and Holy Council in Crete represents a new era in Orthodoxy. The interrelatedness of unity and mission is not a question of methodology or strategy. It is an ontological one: it is related to the very essence of koinonia as fellowship in the triune God, and to the specific aspect of κοινονια as participation in God's economy in and for the world. Mission is commitment to the work of the triune God incarnated in Jesus Christ. Both are God’s gift and command. It is only in unity with the Holy Trinity that the church is able to fulfil its vocation.
The Council of Crete
Authors: Kattan Assaad Elias 
Published: August 2020

AbstractThis article offers a critical assessment of the Holy and Great Council of the Orthodox Church that took place in Crete in 2016. It argues that the situation facing the Orthodox churches after the Council of Crete is far more important than everything that directly preceded it, and that the Orthodox are only at the beginning as far as the important questions and challenges of the world today are concerned.
“Who Can Proclaim the Mighty Acts of the Lord?”
Authors: Koukoura Dimitra A. 
Published: August 2020

AbstractThe Holy and Great Council of the Orthodox Church that met in Crete in 2016 reaffirmed that mission and evangelism is a duty for Orthodox faithful, especially in Europe, which is often seen as a terrain for evangelization by movements coming from the global South. This requires caution, planning, accountability, and especially deep faith, against the background of complacency observed among members of the Orthodox Church that creates a noticeable missionary vacuum. The article underlines the necessity to begin with honest self‐criticism by pastors and teachers, clergy and laypeople and to follow this with serious pastoral planning in relation to the modern social and cultural environment and the needs of the people.

Coordination inside government administrations: Lessons from the EU Commission
Authors: Senninger Roman , Finke Daniel , Blom‐Hansen Jens 
Published: August 2020

AbstractHow can interdepartmental coordination in large political‐administrative systems be organized? This question has vexed scholars and practitioners for more than 100 years. Two perspectives—one that features hierarchical direction and one hallmarked by horizontal negotiation—dominate the scholarly debate. However, we know surprisingly little about how interdepartmental coordination is handled in practice. This article presents an empirical study in an entire political‐administrative system, the EU Commission, and examines whether interdepartmental coordination is hierarchical or negotiated. Our study is based on almost 6,000 cases and original measures of departmental policy expertise derived from quantitative text analysis. Our results indicate that interdepartmental coordination is primarily driven by concerns of administrative turfs and thus lend support to the negotiated coordination perspective.

AbstractAimTo evaluate the use of a reduced taper endodontic instrument system (Bassi Logic™ .03 taper) and expandable heat‐treated system (XP‐endo Shaper) on the ability to shape canals in mandibular molars, by means of microcomputed tomography (micro‐CT) analysis. The Reciproc system was used as the reference for comparison.MethodologyTwenty‐four mandibular molars were scanned in a micro‐CT, matched based on similar anatomical features and sorted into three groups (n = 8 per group), according to root canal preparation system: Bassi Logic™ .03, XP‐endo Shaper and Reciproc. The teeth were mounted onto a mannequin and the pulp chambers were accessed with traditional access cavities. In Bassi Logic™ .03 and Reciproc groups, mesial canals were prepared with size 25, .03 taper or R25 (size 25, .08v taper) instruments and the distal root canal with size 25, .03 taper and size 40, .03 taper or R25 and R40 (size 40, .06v taper), respectively. In XP‐endo Shaper groups, all root canals were prepared with XP‐endo Shaper (size 30, .04v taper). After root canal preparation, the teeth were rescanned. The percentage of untouched canal areas and the percentage of removed dentine were evaluated separately for mesial and distal root canals. The data were analysed using one‐way anova and Tukey tests (P < 0.05).ResultsThe Bassi Logic™ .03 group was associated with a greater percentage of untouched canal areas when compared to XP‐endo Shaper and Reciproc groups for mesial and distal root canals (P < 0.05), but no differences were found between XP‐endo Shaper and Reciproc groups (P > 0.05). No significant difference was observed in the percentage of dentine removed amongst the groups for mesial and distal root canals (P > 0.05).ConclusionThe use of a reduced taper system (Bassi Logic™ .03) during root canal preparation resulted in a greater percentage of untouched canal areas when compared to XP‐endo Shaper and Reciproc instruments. No differences were observed amongst the systems regarding the percentage of dentine removed.
