IntroductionThe aim of this study is to investigate the diagnostic accuracy, psychometric properties and clinical utility of the German version of the Clinician-Administered Post-Traumatic Stress Disorder (PTSD) Scale for Diagnostic and Statistical Manual of Mental Disorders-5 (DSM-5) (CAPS-5) in routine clinical settings.Methods and analysisThis study is a non-interventional, multitrait–multimethod design, multicentre study that will be carried out at German civil and military inpatient and outpatient clinics. A total sample size of n=219 participants who have experienced at least one traumatic event according to criteria as defined in the DSM-5 will be recruited. For the investigation of the diagnostic accuracy and clinical utility of the CAPS-5, participants will be categorised into one of three groups, depending on their traumatic experiences and post-traumatic symptomatology: (1) monotraumatisation with PTSD; (2) multiple traumatisation with PTSD and (3) traumatisation without PTSD. Interviews will be conducted face to face by interviewers in routine clinical settings. All participants will also be asked to complete a comprehensive set of questionnaires in order to investigate different facets of construct validity and clinical utility. First, differences between all three groups in CAPS-5 sum and subscale scores will be investigated. Test–retest reliability and inter-rater reliability will be determined. Internal consistency will be calculated using structural equation modeling (SEM) based internal consistency coefficients. Construct validity will be measured with Spearman’s rank correlation analyses and multivariate analyses of variance with Holm-Bonferroni corrected post hoc analysis of variances. In order to test diagnostic accuracy, receiver operating characteristics and sensitivity and specificity analyses will be conducted. The model structure of the German CAPS-5 will be analysed using confirmatory factor analyses.Ethics and disseminationThe study received ethical approval by the Ethics Committees of the Faculty of Psychology at the Ruhr-Universität Bochum (reference numbers: 331 and 358). The results of the study will be presented nationally and internationally at scientific conferences and will be published in scientific journals.Trial registration numberDRKS00015325

Published: June 2020

BackgroundComparative evaluation of long sheath performance in stroke thrombectomy has not been performed.ObjectiveTo review an initial experience with the new Ballast 6F long sheath compared with the NeuronMax, to evaluate comparative benchmarks in trackability, navigability, and procedural outcomes.MethodsA prospectively maintained thrombectomy database was evaluated over a 6-month period to compare procedural and angiographic results between a cohort of patients treated with the historical institutional standard long sheath (NeuronMax) and another with the new Ballast long sheath via a transfemoral approach.ResultsOf 156 stroke thrombectomy cases, 69 were performed using NeuronMax and 40 using Ballast via a transfemoral approach; the remainder of cases employed alternative long sheaths or were performed via initial radial access. There was no significant difference in patient age, medical history, baseline National Institutes of Health Stroke Scale score, Alberta Stroke Program Early CT Score, arch type, tissue plasminogen activator use, and clot location between the two groups. Single-pass case frequency (41% for NeuronMax vs 44% for Ballast, p=0.84), and final successful revascularization (TICI 2b or greater) were similar between the two cohorts (91% vs 98%, p=0.42). Good 90-day outcome (modified Rankin Scale score 0–2) was also similar (33% for NeuronMax, 43% for Ballast, p=0.41). Excluding tandem occlusions, mean procedural time was 31 min for NeuronMax and 25 min for Ballast (p=0.09). Puncture to long sheath access and angiography in the base target vessel was faster for Ballast than NeuronMax (6.5 min vs 9.2 min, p=0.04).ConclusionAmong a cohort of practitioners with historical, preferential experience with NeuronMax for stroke thrombectomy, faster procedural times were achieved with Ballast with similar final angiographic results.

ObjectivesWe studied the association between long working hours and decreased kidney function, which was determined using estimated glomerular filtration rate (eGFR), among the working population in South Korea.MethodsWe analysed nationally representative cross-sectional data for 20 851 Korean workers ≥20 years of age. A negative binomial regression model was used to test differences in the prevalence of chronic kidney disease (eGFR <60 mL/min/1.73 m2) among workers divided into groups according to weekly working hours (<30, 30–40, 41–51 and ≥52 hours/week). Multivariate linear regression analysis was performed to investigate the association between weekly working hours and eGFR, with adjustments made for age, sex/gender, income, education, shift work, occupation, smoking, alcohol use, hypertension, diabetes mellitus, body mass index, systolic blood pressure, fasting blood glucose and total serum cholesterol.ResultsA 1-hour increase in weekly working hours was associated with 0.057 mL/min/1.73 m2(95% CI 0.005 to 0.109) decrease in eGFR among participants who worked ≥52 hours/week. Among participants without hypertension or diabetes, a 1-hour increase in weekly working hours was significantly associated with 0.248 and 0.209 mL/min/1.73 m2decrease in eGFR among participants who worked 30–40 hours/week and 41–51 hours/week, respectively.ConclusionLong working hours are associated with decreased kidney function. We expect that our findings could call for more research regarding this association and provide policy-oriented perspectives.
Questioning the regressivity of tobacco taxes: a distributional accounting impact model of increased tobacco taxation
Authors: Verguet Stéphane , Kearns Patrick K A , Rees Vaughan W 
Published: June 2020

BackgroundTobacco taxes, as with other ‘sin taxes’, are generally regarded as a highly cost-effective mechanism to reduce consumption but are often considered by policymakers to be regressive, undermining efforts to fully implement them at levels recommended by the WHO due to concerns of fairness. We aim to demonstrate whether there are circumstances in which the impacts of additional tobacco taxes are not regressive, using a standard income-share accounting definition of tax burden.Methods and findingsWe apply mathematical modelling and explore the hypothetical distributions in the net change in tobacco taxes and cigarette expenditures by income group, following an increase in tobacco taxation. The hypothetical distribution per income group of additional taxes and cigarette expenditures borne by individuals following tobacco tax hikes was calculated with respect to a selection of parameters including: the change in the retail price of cigarettes, the price elasticity of demand for tobacco, smoking prevalence, cigarette consumption and individual income. We determine the range of hypothetical parameter values for which increased tobacco taxation should not be considered to penalise the poorest income groups when examining marginal cigarette consumption expenditures and using an accounting definition of tax burden.ConclusionsOur findings question the doctrine that tobacco taxes are uniformly regressive from a standard income-share accounting view and point to the importance of the specific features of tax policy to shape a progressive approach to tobacco taxation: tobacco tax increases are less likely to be regressive when accompanied by a broad framework of demand-side measures that enhance the capacity of low-income smokers to quit tobacco use.
A comparative study of Li10.35Ge1.35P1.65S12 and Li10.5Ge1.5P1.5S12 superionic conductors

Since the lithium-ion conductor Li[Formula: see text]GeP2S[Formula: see text] (LGPS) with a super high room-temperature conductivity of 12[Formula: see text]mS/cm was first reported in 2011, sulfide-type solid electrolytes have been paid much attention. It was suggested by Kwon et al. [J. Mater. Chem. A 3, 438 (2015)] that some excess lithium ions in LGPS, namely, Li[Formula: see text]Ge[Formula: see text] P[Formula: see text]S[Formula: see text], could further improve their ionic conductivities, and the highest conductivity of 14.2[Formula: see text]mS/cm was obtained at [Formula: see text] though a larger lattice parameter that occurred at [Formula: see text]. In this study, we focus on these two different chemical compositions of LGPS with [Formula: see text] and [Formula: see text], respectively. Both samples were prepared using the same experimental process. Their lattice parameter, microstructure and room-temperature ionic conductivity were compared in detail. The results show that the main phase is the tetragonal LGPS phase but with a nearly identical amount of orthorhombic LGPS phase coexisting in both samples. Bigger lattice parameters, larger grain sizes and higher ionic conductivities are simultaneously achieved in Li[Formula: see text]Ge[Formula: see text]P[Formula: see text]S[Formula: see text] ([Formula: see text]), exhibiting an ultrahigh room-temperature ionic conductivity of 18.8[Formula: see text]mS/cm.
LATIN AS A COMPONENT OF FUTURE NURSERS’ PROFESSIONAL EDUCATION
Authors: Vorona І. І. , Kolodnytska O. D. 
Published: June 2020

The article points out the specifics of future nurses’ terminological competence development by using Latin medical terms. Mastering Latin medical terminology is obligatory for intercultural communication particularly in the nurses’ professional activity. The course “Latin and the Basis of Medical Terminology” contributes to the future nurses’ development of linguistic and terminological culture during professional training.
Modern requirements include mastering the professional language (terminology) for specialists in different fields of knowledge.
Understanding between colleagues and the qualified treatment often depend on the ability to formulate correctly special information orally or in written form, and the ability to be able to communicate professionally with co-workers more fluently and more confidently. Knowledge of professional terminology helps to gain a deeper understanding of specialized literature and to develop professional erudition. Nowadays, it is necessary to use methods allowing to optimize the educational process due to the most effective use of allotted time for the nurses’ terminological competence development.
The nurses’ terminological competence is developed during the study of the course “Latin and the Basis of Medical Terminology”. It will help nurses master Professionally Oriented Study Programmes: Anatomy, Histology, Therapy, Clinical Courses, Chemistry, Pharmacology, Pharmacognosy, etc.

Púchkin e Machado, o ser negro, formas de ouvir o outro
Authors: Fuentes Susana 
Published: June 2020

Este estudo pretende, em leituras de Púchkin e aproximações de Machado, analisar, em perspectiva comparada, o lugar de visibilidade da herança afrodescendente em Aleksander Púchkin (1799-1837) na literatura russa e Machado de Assis (1839- 1908) na literatura brasileira. Perceber, entre margem e centro, a voz plural e inovadora do autor russo, seus caminhos até o outro. Em Puchkin, a viagem. Fronteiras possíveis. O olhar para si que se deixa atravessar pela diferença. Em Machado, seu olhar para as máscaras sociais e para a escravidão. Nesses autores, marcas em sua literatura que formam a sua casa e o seu tempo, em diálogo com a modernidade. Na abertura para o outro, leituras onde o que estava no lugar do cânone também se modifica, escurecendo o imaginário nos novos contextos.

Background
Circulating galectin‐3 levels provide prognostic information in patients with established heart failure (HF), but the associations between galectin‐3 levels and other incident cardiovascular events in asymptomatic individuals at midlife and when remeasured ≈15 years later are largely uncharacterized.

Methods and Results
Using multivariable Cox proportional hazards models, we identified associations between plasma galectin‐3 levels (hazard ratio [HR] per 1 SD increase in natural log galectin‐3) and incident coronary heart disease, ischemic stroke, HF hospitalization, and total mortality in ARIC (Atherosclerosis Risk in Communities) participants free of cardiovascular disease at ARIC visit 4 (1996–1998; n=9247) and at ARIC visit 5 (2011–2013; n=4829). Higher galectin‐3 level at visit 4 (median age 62) was independently associated with incident coronary heart disease (adjusted HR, 1.30; 95% CI, 1.06–1.60), ischemic stroke (HR, 1.42; 95% CI, 1.01–2.00), HF (HR, 1.44; 95% CI, 1.17–1.76), and mortality (HR, 1.56; 95% CI, 1.35–1.80). At visit 5 (median age, 74), higher galectin‐3 level was associated with incident HF (HR, 1.93; 95% CI, 1.15–3.24) and total mortality (HR, 1.70; 95% CI, 1.15–2.52), but not coronary heart disease or stoke. Individuals with the greatest increase in galectin‐3 levels from visit 4 to visit 5 were also at increased risk of incident HF and total mortality.

Conclusions
In a large, biracial community‐based cohort, galectin‐3 measured at midlife and older age was associated with increased risk of cardiovascular events. An increase in galectin‐3 levels over this period was also associated with increased risk.
AKAP12 Signaling Complex: Impacts of Compartmentalizing cAMP‐Dependent Signaling Pathways in the Heart and Various Signaling Systems
Authors: Qasim Hanan , McConnell Bradley K. 
Published: June 2020

Abstract

Heart failure is a complex clinical syndrome, represented as an impairment in ventricular filling and myocardial blood ejection. As such, heart failure is one of the leading causes of death in the United States. With a mortality rate of 1 per 8 individuals and a prevalence of 6.2 million Americans, it has been projected that heart failure prevalence will increase by 46% by 2030. Cardiac remodeling (a general determinant of heart failure) is regulated by an extensive network of intertwined intracellular signaling pathways. The ability of signalosomes (molecular signaling complexes) to compartmentalize several cellular pathways has been recently established. These signalosome signaling complexes provide an additional level of specificity to general signaling pathways by regulating the association of upstream signals with downstream effector molecules. In cardiac myocytes, the AKAP12 (A‐kinase anchoring protein 12) scaffolds a large signalosome that orchestrates spatiotemporal signaling through stabilizing pools of phosphatases and kinases. Predominantly upon β‐AR (β
2
‐adrenergic‐receptor) stimulation, the AKAP12 signalosome is recruited near the plasma membrane and binds tightly to β‐AR. Thus, one major function of AKAP12 is compartmentalizing PKA (protein kinase A) signaling near the plasma membrane. In addition, it is involved in regulating desensitization, downregulation, and recycling of β‐AR. In this review, the critical roles of AKAP12 as a scaffold protein in mediating signaling downstream GPCRs (G protein–coupled receptor) are discussed with an emphasis on its reported and potential roles in cardiovascular disease initiation and progression.
Specially for Television?
Authors: Bignell Jonathan 
Published: June 2020

Abstract
This article analyses tensions between medium specificity and intermediality in Beckett’s first original drama for television, Eh Joe (1966), which exploits features of the medium such as the spatiality of the studio, monochrome images and close-up. But its visual motifs also echo Beckett’s cinema debut, Film (1964), and uses of sound and voice from his radio plays. The public promotion of Eh Joe centred on its relationships with Beckett’s theatre plays, while Eh Joe’s first audiences adduced frames of reference from both theatre and television. Eh Joe works with the porosity of media boundaries and performatively renegotiates them.
Samuel Beckett and Intermedial Performance
Authors: McMullan Anna 
Published: June 2020

Abstract
This article analyses two intermedial adaptations of works by Beckett for performance in relation to Ágnes Pethő’s definition of intermediality as a border zone or passageway between media, grounded in the “inter-sensuality of perception.” After a discussion of how Beckett’s own practice might be seen as intermedial, the essay analyses the 1996 American Repertory Company programme Beckett Trio, a staging of three of Beckett’s television plays which incorporated live camera projected onto a large screen in a television studio. The second case study analyses Company SJ’s 2014 stage adaptation of a selection of Beckett’s prose texts, Fizzles, in a site-specific, historical location in inner city Dublin, which incorporated projected sequences previously filmed in a different location, a former power station.
Intermediality and the Future Anterior
Authors: Bates Julie 
Published: June 2020

Abstract
This essay traces the ways in which the intermedial practices of the artist Brian O’Doherty and writer Brian Dillon cast into relief Samuel Beckett’s own intermediality, marking it as a still-relevant set of propositions for dissolving boundaries between media and posing questions about time. I propose that intermediality functions for O’Doherty as an optimistic means of opening up potential new forms and futures, but for Beckett and Dillon alike designates a negative aesthetic and political dynamic, anticipating failure even in the moment of experimentation. This time-annulling intermediality is evocative, I believe, of what Dillon describes as “a modernist future that never came to pass.”
mHealth for schizophrenia spectrum disorders management: A systematic review

Published: June 2020

Background: Various types of computational technologies can be used to access, store and wirelessly share private and sensitive user-related information. The ‘big data’ provided by these technologies may enable researchers and clinicians to better identify behavioral patterns and to provide a more personalized approach to care. The information collected, however, can be misused or potentially abused, and therefore could be detrimental to the very people who provided their medical data with the hope of improving care. This article focuses on the use of emerging mobile technologies that allow the collection of data about patients experiencing schizophrenia spectrum and related disorders. Schizophrenia has been recognized by the Sustainable Development Goals of the United Nations for its burden on our health care system and society [1]. Our analysis provides an overview of the range of available mobile technologies for people with schizophrenia and related conditions along with the technology’s reported capabilities and limitations, and efficacy of mHealth interventions based on the data from articles. Thus, the focus of this review is first and foremost to update the scope of existing technologies as previous systematic reviews such as the ones by Alvarez-Jimenez et al. and by Firth and Torous are outdated [2, 3]. Although we also examine the ethical issues arising from the use of these technologies, for an in-depth analysis of the ethical implications of mobile Health technologies (mHealth), we refer the readers to our follow-up article. In terms of the ubiquitous availability of technology on the internet, our article summarizes significant information for mental health specialists and apprises the reader about the existence of these technologies. Objectives: In terms of the ubiquitous availability of technology on the internet, our article summarizes significant information for mental health specialists and apprises the reader about the existence of these technologies.
The role of clubfoot training programmes in low- and middle-income countries: a systematic review
Authors: Sheik-Ali Sharaf , Navarro Sergio M , Keil Evan , Lavy Chris 
Published: June 2020

While adoption of the Ponseti method has continued gradually, its use to manage patients with congenital talipes equinovarus (CTEV) has been limited in low- and middle-income countries (LMICs) for a number of reasons including a lack of clinical training on technique and lack of appropriate clinical equipment. There are a frequent number of emerging studies that report on the role of clubfoot training programmes; however, little is known in regard to cumulative benefits. A systematic review was undertaken through Medline, the Cochrane Library and Web of Science for studies analysing clubfoot training programmes. There were no limitations on time, up until the review was commenced on January 2020. The systematic review was registered with PROSPERO as 165657. Ten articles complied with the inclusion criteria and were deemed fit for analysis. Training programmes lasted an average of 2–3 days. There was a reported increase in knowledge of applying the Ponseti method in managing clubfoot by participants (four studies P < 0.05). Skill retention was examined by multiple choice (MCQ) examination style questions before and after the training programme in two studies; both showed an improvement (MCQ answers improved from 59% to 73%). All studies showed an improvement in participants' self-reported understanding of the Ponseti method and confidence in its use in future practice ( P < 0.05). There were improved benefits of knowledge and clinical application of the Ponseti method by participants in the programmes in all studies examined. However, there was a significant lack of follow-up and exploration of long-term effects of these programmes. Implementing training programmes based on perceived benefits rather than actual long-term benefits may have a negative impact on healthcare delivery and patient management in LMICs.
