Published: January 2021

IntroductionNo-reﬂow is an infrequent but dreaded complication of percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI), where the culprit is obstruction of the downstream microvascular bed. The aim of this study was to evaluate the efficacy and safety of forceful injection of blood (autologous blood transfusion – ABT) in reversing no-reflow during PCI because data regarding its effectiveness is not available.Material and methods100–120 ml of blood was withdrawn through guiding catheter over 3 to 5 min using a 10 ml syringe and re-infused by forceful injection over 3 min through it, and its efficacy was assessed at 10 min using TIMI flow grade and quantitative corrected TIMI frame count.ResultsIn total 93 patients received ABT following no-reflow. Their clinical presentation was ST-elevation myocardial infarction (STEMI) (n = 61; 65.6%), non-ST-elevation myocardial infarction (NSTEMI) (n = 23; 24.7%), and unstable angina (n = 9; 9.6%). It was observed among patients undergoing primary PCI (n = 18; 19.3%), pharmaco-invasive PCI (n = 27; 29%), rescue PCI (n = 11; 11.8%), and PCI for cardiogenic shock (n = 5; 5.3%). A mean volume of 108 ±4 ml blood was transfused. Commonest culprit vessel was left anterior descending artery (n = 51; 54.8%) followed by right coronary (n = 29; 31.2%), left circumflex (n = 19; 10.8%), and saphenous vein grafts (n = 3; 3.2%). Following ABT, TIMI 3 flow was successfully restored in 77 (82.7%) patients. TIMI flow grade improved from 1.02 to 2.52 and cTIMI frame count decreased from 60.6 ±12 to 16.1 ±6 (p < 0.001). ABT was well tolerated except transient hypotension (n = 17; 18.3%). Overall mortality was reported in 10 (10.7%) patients at 1 year.ConclusionsIn this largest and only study to date, ABT is a safe and highly effective approach to reverse no-reﬂow by raising driving pressure across the capillary bed.

Published: January 2021

BackgroundMechanisms for improving resiliency, and the potential benefits of doing so, are not well evidenced and understood. This research explored the relationship between mental health and resiliency, to broaden the perspectives of influ-ences on resiliency by controlling for mindfulness and self-compassion.Participants and procedureOne questionnaire comprised four pre-developed questions, examining mental health (i.e., depression, anxiety and stress), resilience, mindfulness and self-compassion. Participants (N = 551) were recruited from the general public across the West and East Midlands of England.ResultsThe results showed that poor mental health was related negatively to resilience. Furthermore, the negative relation-ship of resiliency with mental health was mediated when controlling for mindfulness and self-compassion.ConclusionsMindfulness and compassion-based interventions have the potential to develop resiliency by influencing their rela-tionship with health. Future directions are discussed.
Grandparental influence on young adult grandchildren: the role of grandparental empathy and quality of intergenerational relationships
Authors: Michałek-Kwiecień Justyna 
Published: January 2021

BackgroundGrandparent-grandchild relationships play an important role in the lives of young adults. The aim of the current study was to examine young adult grandchildren’s perceptions of the predictors of grandparental influence, includ-ing the quality of the intergenerational relationship and perceived grandparent’s empathy.Participants and procedureThe sample consisted of 363 young adults (55.9% female). The participants were surveyed about the quality of relationship with their closest grandparent (i.e., the frequency of contact, geographical proximity and relational closeness), grandparental empathy, and perception of grandparental influence.ResultsThe maternal grandmother was most often indicated as the closest grandparent. The perception of grandparental influence was predicted by the quality of intergenerational relationships and grandparental empathy after control-ling for sociodemographic variables, moderated by grandchild’s gender. Particularly, both for granddaughters and grandsons the relational closeness with the closest grandparent and perceived empathy were significant predictors of grandparental influence, but perceived grandparental empathy was a stronger predictor for granddaughters, whereas the relational closeness was a stronger predictor for grandsons.ConclusionsThe role of the quality of grandparent-grandchild relationships and grandparental empathy in young adults’ per-ceptions of grandparents’ influence was confirmed and gender differences in determinants of grandparental influ-ence were found. These findings may be helpful in developing intergenerational programs targeted at improving the quality of the relationship with grandparents and their role in young adult grandchildren’s lives.
Sacrifices of women and men in close relationships: the types and structure of sacrifices. The approach and avoidance motives for making sacrifices
Authors: Mandal Eugenia 
Published: January 2021

BackgroundThe aim of the study was to examine what is perceived as sacrifice in close relationships by women and by men. The goal was to find out what the structure of the sacrifices is, and whether they are related to each other. The motives of sacrifice were also examined in approach-avoidance motivation theory.Participants and procedureThe study encompassed 144 participants (93 females aged between 20 and 50) who were asked to provide casual written accounts on what constitutes sacrifice in close heterosexual relationships and the reasons why partners in those relationships would be willing to make sacrifices. The expert judge assessment method, frequency and factor analyses were used.ResultsThe sacrifices that were most frequently reported were those linked to an individual’s professional career, sacrifices made for family reasons and giving up one’s everyday pleasures. Females more frequently make sacrifices linked to their roles within the family, while males are likely to sacrifice in changes of their lifestyle. The most common motive for sacrifice is the love motive and the least common is pressure from the outside. Women named the motive of love more frequently, while men tended to point to the willingness to improve on the quality of the relationship, their personal benefits and sense of obligation.ConclusionsMen and women are willing to sacrifice in close relationships by trying to alter their lifestyle from that of a single person to one that prioritizes their significant others.
Potential influence from lower limb preference and 1-RM on cartilage thickness
Authors: Bini Rodrigo 
Published: January 2021

PurposeThe aims of this study were to assess the potential retrospective relationship between limb preference and cartilage thickness, and to determine the association between measures of strength using 1-RM tests and cartilage thickness.MethodsCross-sectional retrospective design was employed. Limb preference and injury history were collected using the Waterloo Inventory followed by femoral cartilage imaging using ultrasound. 15 apparently healthy participants (11 males and four females) without musculoskeletal or neurological diseases volunteered for the study. After collection of anthropometric measures, warm-up and familiarization, participants performed 1-RM for back half-squat on a Smith machine. Ultrasound images were digitized to determine bilateral differences and femoral cartilage thickness.ResultsSignificant moderate association between the existence of a prior injury and bilateral differences in cartilage thickness (<i>r</i> = -0.63, <i>p</i> < 0.01), in favor of the preferred limb was observed. Significant moderate association between the 1-RM, as percentage of body mass, and the mean cartilage thickness between limb (<i>r</i> = 0.58, <i>p</i> = 0.049).ConclusionsBilateral differences in cartilage thickness are not associated with limb preference but depend on the history of lower limb injuries. The relative load lifted during a 1-RM half-squat is associated with thicker femoral cartilages, which suggests that relative strength is an important measure of cartilage health.

PurposeTo examine the concurrent validity of rating of perceived exertion (RPE) in resistance exercise with blood flow restriction (RE+BFR).MethodsTwelve trained men participated in an orientation session and 2 experimental sessions: RE+BFR and traditional resistance exercise (TRE). Arm curl and leg extension exercises were standardized by the total volume of 3 sets of 16 repetitions at 35% of 1RM for RE+BFR and 3 sets of 8 repetitions at 70% of 1RM for TRE. BFR was applied to proximal positions of both the upper and lower limbs using an elastic knee wrap with a width of 7.6 cm. The blood lactate concentration ([La]), RPE in the active muscles (RPE-AM), and in the overall body (RPE-O) were measured at rest and the end of each set using the OMNI-RES.ResultsIn RE+BFR, positive linear regression coefficients (<i>p</i> < 0.01) were found between [La] and RPE-AM (arm curl, <i>r</i> = 0.54; leg extension, <i>r</i> = 0.71) and between [La] and RPE-O (arm curl, <i>r</i> = 0.55; leg extension, <i>r</i> = 0.74). Similarly, in TRE, positive coefficients (<i>p</i> < 0.01) were observed between [La] and RPE-AM (arm curl: <i>r</i> = 0.63; leg extension: <i>r</i> = 0.63) and between [La] and RPE-O (arm curl: <i>r</i> = 0.60; leg extension: <i>r</i> = 0.59).ConclusionsThe RPE scale was shown to be a valid method to monitor and regulate intensity during RE+BFR in the upper and lower limbs.

PurposeThe goal of the study was to investigate changes in foot anatomical characteristics in the last trimester of pregnancy.MethodsTwenty pregnant women (mean age: 30.8 years) from a local clinic were recruited. Body mass, foot length and
width, longitudinal arch height, and several angular variables quantifying plantar and arch structure were measured. A foot
imprint was obtained with a digital podoscope (CQ Elektronik System, Poland) at the beginning and end of the third trimester of pregnancy.ResultsBody mass was significantly greater at the end of the last trimester. Increases were also observed in the SztriterGodunow index in both feet (<i>p</i> < 0.007), although foot length and width increased only in the left foot. Among the angular
characteristics, the only significant changes involved an increase in the talocalcaneal angle (<i>p</i> < 0.007) and a decrease in
the 1st metatarsophalangeal angle in the right foot (<i>p</i> < 0.04).ConclusionsSignificant changes in plantar and arch structure were observed in the final trimester of pregnancy, primarily
involving a transverse expansion of the left foot and alteration in the angular characteristics of the right foot. The results
of the research show anthropometric changes in feet of women in the last trimester of pregnancy. They indicate the foot parts
in which the greatest changes occur and what the direction of these changes is. This will allow to create a preventive foot
corrective exercise program for pregnant women.

PurposeThe aim of this study was to validate the 3-Day Physical Activity Recall (3DPAR) for measuring daily energy
expenditure in children and adolescents.MethodsChildren and adolescents, a total of 148 participants, were recruited in 10 schools. The data collection was carried out in a period of 11 months. The measurements of weight, skinfold, and circumferences were performed. After the
anthropometric assessment, an accelerometer was put on and the participant remained with the electrodes during 5 days.
On the fifth day, the accelerometer was taken off and 3DPAR was applied. After 1 week of the study (eighth day), 3DPAR
was applied again for testing reliability.ResultsIn the analysis of reliability and internal consistency, Cronbach’s alpha was 0.73 for the first assessment of 3DPAR
and 0.83 for the second one. The consistency of the values estimated by 3DPAR yielded Cronbach’s alpha of 0.89 in the
first assessment and 0.83 in the second one. The correlations and the coefficient of determination between 3DPAR and the
accelerometer were considered moderate and significant (<i>r</i> = 0.645, <i>p</i> < 0.001).Conclusions3DPAR presented satisfactory reliability and moderate correlations with the criterion measurement in children
and adolescents aged 10–12 years.
Work-life balance among newly employed officers – a qualitative study
Authors: Oskarsson Emma , Österberg Johan , Nilsson Joel 
Published: January 2021

BackgroundA military career puts great demands on the individual as regards combining working life and private life. The military and the family both demand time, energy, engagement, and commitment from the individual. Finding an appropriate balance between work and non-work might be particularly complex during military training and deployments that require extended periods away from home. The aim of this study was to investigate newly employed officers’ perceptions of work-life balance and its implications for future careers.Participants and procedureThis article is based on 34 semi-structured interviews with newly employed officers and non-commissioned officers in the Swedish Armed Forces (SAF). The interviews were analyzed according to the six-phase ap-proach of coding and theme development by thematic analysis.ResultsThe analysis resulted in the emergence of three main themes: coping with different loyalties, individual and organizational strategies, and concerns about the future. All officers expressed loyalty to their work and organi-zation, but these perceptions were influenced by significant others in private life. High ambitions in combination with stressful working conditions made organizational supportive strategies important, but these differed be-tween units. Concerns about a constantly high workload and lack of recovery were highlighted, as well as con-cerns about future career and family building.ConclusionsIn order to retain qualified personnel, the SAF should provide support and create conditions that help employ-ees to balance work and non-work. A career in the Armed Forces will inevitably entail a reduced work-life bal-ance, and our results show that the newly employed officers are highly aware of this. To ease the pressure, the SAF could be clearer about the expectations on their new employees.

Abstract. Information about the spatiotemporal variability of soil moisture is critical for many purposes, including monitoring of hydrologic extremes, irrigation scheduling, and prediction of agricultural yields. We evaluated the temporal dynamics of 18 state-of-the-art (quasi-)global near-surface soil moisture products, including six based on satellite retrievals, six based on models without satellite data assimilation (referred to hereafter as “open-loop” models), and six based on models that assimilate satellite soil moisture or brightness temperature data. Seven of the products are introduced for the first time in this study: one multi-sensor merged satellite product called MeMo (Merged soil Moisture) and six estimates from the HBV (Hydrologiska Byråns Vattenbalansavdelning) model with three precipitation inputs (ERA5, IMERG, and MSWEP) with and without assimilation of SMAPL3E satellite retrievals, respectively. As reference, we used in situ soil moisture measurements between 2015 and 2019 at 5 cm depth from 826 sensors, located primarily in the USA and Europe. The 3-hourly Pearson correlation (R) was chosen as the primary performance metric. We found that application of the Soil Wetness Index (SWI) smoothing filter resulted in improved performance for all satellite products. The best-to-worst performance ranking of the four single-sensor satellite products was SMAPL3ESWI, SMOSSWI, AMSR2SWI, and ASCATSWI, with the L-band-based SMAPL3ESWI (median R of 0.72) outperforming the others at 50 % of the sites. Among the two multi-sensor satellite products (MeMo and ESA-CCISWI), MeMo performed better on average (median R of 0.72 versus 0.67), probably due to the inclusion of SMAPL3ESWI. The best-to-worst performance ranking of the six open-loop models was HBV-MSWEP, HBV-ERA5, ERA5-Land, HBV-IMERG, VIC-PGF, and GLDAS-Noah. This ranking largely reflects the quality of the precipitation forcing. HBV-MSWEP (median R of 0.78) performed best not just among the open-loop models but among all products. The calibration of HBV improved the median R by +0.12 on average compared to random parameters, highlighting the importance of model calibration. The best-to-worst performance ranking of the six models with satellite data assimilation was HBV-MSWEP+SMAPL3E, HBV-ERA5+SMAPL3E, GLEAM, SMAPL4, HBV-IMERG+SMAPL3E, and ERA5. The assimilation of SMAPL3E retrievals into HBV-IMERG improved the median R by +0.06, suggesting that data assimilation yields significant benefits at the global scale.

OBJECTIVESTo characterize the voriconazole and posaconazole serum trough ordering practices in patients receiving prophylactic and treatment antifungal therapy.METHODSA retrospective chart review over a 6-year period of pediatric patients who received voriconazole and/or posaconazole for &gt;24 hours.RESULTSA total of 113 patients were included in this study and of these patients, 105 received voriconazole and 16 received posaconazole during the study period. Additionally, 167 trough levels were assessed in this study. Only 50% and 54% of levels were considered within goal recommendations for voriconazole and posaconazole, respectively. The median dose required to achieve goal trough concentration was dependent on drug, indication, and dosage form. Lastly, the most common adverse drug reactions (ADRs) were hepatoxicity, QTc prolongation, and CNS changes, which were in concordance with ADRs documented in the clinical trials for voriconazole and posaconazole. Approximately 20% of patients receiving either voriconazole or posaconazole died during the study period and the median trough in both groups was subtherapeutic.CONCLUSIONSIncreased monitoring of trough concentrations may be warranted to prevent death or breakthrough invasive fungal infections. Further studies are warranted for assessing the relationship between trough concentrations and treatment outcomes as well as relationship between dosing and achieving goal trough concentrations.

Authors: Asfour Suzan S. , Asfour Raneem S. , Khalil Thanaa M. , Al-Mouqdad Mountasser M. 
Published: January 2021

OBJECTIVE
Daptomycin is a lipopeptide antibiotic with rapid bactericidal activity against Gram-positive bacteria. Reports regarding the use of daptomycin in infants are still limited. Thus, the objective of this report is to describe the safety and efficacy of daptomycin in premature infants with persistent coagulase-negative staphylococci (CoNS) infection.

METHODS
This was a retrospective chart review of 10 premature infants with persistent CoNS infection who received daptomycin therapy between January 2018 and September 2019. Four patients had endocarditis and 1 had bacterial meningitis and infectious endocarditis. The other 5 patients had persistent CoNS bacteraemia only.

RESULTS
Daptomycin treatment was successful for 5 patients. The others died owing to multiple factors such as prematurity, sepsis, and chronic lung disease. Adverse drug reactions, including elevation of creatine phosphokinase and/or hepatotoxicity, were noted in 4 patients.

CONCLUSIONS
Large and randomized studies are necessary to ensure daptomycin's safety and efficacy for the treatment of infants with persistent sepsis caused by Gram-positive bacteria.
O que acontece quando eu olho para você: o espaço íntimo do teatro na prisão
Authors: Hamer Karen , Martin Cedric 
Published: January 2021

Apesar dos crescentes estudos sobre teatro e voluntários em prisões, há pouca pesquisa que olha para a experiência teatral da prisão através dos olhos tanto dos voluntários externos quanto dos prisioneiros-participantes. Este artigo busca tecer as vozes coautorais para explorar experiências compartilhadas da sala de aula do teatro prisional. Essas experiências – descritas como "mágicas" e "transcendentes" – dependem do voluntariado realizando atividades com sucesso na prisão. O espaço da sala de aula do teatro na prisão torna-se então um refúgio relacional onde tanto os presos quanto os voluntários podem se sentir bem-vindos e aceitos, vistos não como outros, mas como essenciais.
