AbstractObjectiveTo identify assessment tools used to evaluate patients with temporomandibular disorders (TMD) considered to be clinically most useful by a panel of international experts in TMD physical therapy (PT).MethodsA Delphi survey method administered to a panel of international experts in TMD PT was conducted over three rounds from October 2017 to June 2018. The initial contact was made by email. Participation was voluntary. An e‐survey, according to the Checklist for Reporting Results of Internet E‐Surveys (CHERRIES),was posted using SurveyMonkey for each round. Percentages of responses were analysed for each question from each round of the Delphi survey administrations.ResultsTwenty‐three experts (completion rate: 23/25) completed all three rounds of the survey for three clinical test categories: 1) questionnaires, 2) pain screening tools and 3) physical examination tests. The following was the consensus‐based decision regarding the identification of the clinically most useful assessments. (1) Four of 9 questionnaires were identified: Jaw Functional Limitation (JFL‐8), Mandibular Function Impairment Questionnaire (MFIQ), Tampa Scale for Kinesiophobia for Temporomandibular disorders (TSK/TMD) and the neck disability index (NDI). (2) Three of 8 identified pain screening tests: visual analog scale (VAS), numeric pain rating scale (NRS) and pain during mandibular movements. (3) Eight of 18 identified physical examination tests: physiological temporomandibular joint (TMJ) movements, trigger point (TrP) palpation of the masticatory muscles, TrP palpation away from the masticatory system, accessory movements, articular palpation, noise detection during movement, manual screening of the cervical spine and the Neck Flexor Muscle Endurance Test.ConclusionAfter three rounds in this Delphi survey, the results of the most used assessment tools by TMD PT experts were established. They proved to be founded on test construct, test psychometric properties (reliability/validity) and expert preference for test clusters. A concordance with the screening tools of the diagnostic criteria of TMD consortium was noted. Findings may be used to guide policymaking purposes and future diagnostic research.

AbstractRice blast, caused by the fungal pathogen Magnaporthe oryzae (M. oryzae), is one of the most destructive and widespread plant diseases in the world. Utilization of resistance genes in rice breeding is considered to be an effective and economical method to control this disease. To identify new sources of blast resistance, a set of 1160 introgression lines (ILs) containing chromosome segments of Chaling common wild rice (Oryza rufipogon Griff.) in the genetic background of an elite indica rice variety 93‐11 were developed and phenotyped in the blast nursery. Thirty‐three ILs displaying stable blast resistance in three consecutive years were obtained. Among them, one line, IL1043, was subsequently found to be resistant to all of the 28 M. oryzae isolates from different regions through artificial inoculation in greenhouse. By combining bulk segregant analysis coupled with next‐generation sequencing (BSA‐seq) and recessive class analysis (RCA), a major blast resistance gene in IL1043, designated Picl(t), was mapped on rice chromosome 6 flanked by the markers RM527 and Indel6 with an interval of approximately 925 kb, which covers the Pi2/9 locus. These results will facilitate fine mapping and cloning of Picl(t), and the linked markers will further provide a useful tool for rice blast resistance breeding.

AbstractObjectivesMedication error (ME) is like a venom dispersing in clinical practice, particularly the process of drugs’ administration. Nurses, as the direct drug administrators, are in critical defense lines to prevent its occurrence. Therefore, our aims were to explore nurses’ understanding, perception, attitude and prevalence of MEs and thereafter defining the main factors associated with its occurrence and needed for designing proper policies for its sufficient prevention.MethodsSelf-reported questionnaires were obtained from 156 nurses distributed almost equally between the 3 major teaching hospitals in Jordan. The questionnaires aimed at measuring their understanding, attitudes, and the prevalence of MEs.Key findingsThe majority of respondents were males (51.3%), young (25–34, 75%), hold a BSc degree (84.6%). Most of their experiences were less than 5 years (67.3%). The level of understanding of the definition, associated factors, and the consequences of ME was acceptable between registered nurses in Jordanian teaching hospitals. Nurses who had the lowest experience (0–5 years) were the highest in committing MEs (P-value = 0.006). Otherwise, gender, age, and education were not significantly associated with MEs. The participants reported that the most common causes of medication error were setting the infusion devices incorrectly, distraction, labeling and packaging problems. Participants declared that the incidents of MEs are underreported (Reporting rate (28.3%)) and they believed that it was most likely due to the fear of losing their job, misjudgment on the seriousness of the incidence that warrant reporting, and fear from coworkers' actions.ConclusionsMEs are common and may be underreported among registered nurses in Jordan. National policymakers should take critical steps to encourage the nurses to report any error in medication administration and therefore reducing its occurrence.
Integrating new knowledge into everyday practices: teacher pedagogy in early grade literacy in rural Mozambique

Published: March 2020

AbstractImproving literacy outcomes in sub‐Saharan Africa is a central focus of national governments, donors and non‐governmental organisations alike, as evidenced by the inclusion of literacy as a target in the United Nations' Sustainable Development Goal 4. Though significant international development funding has been devoted to teacher training in the region, little evidence is available on how teachers improve their literacy instruction in practice. This study profiles how 20 teachers in eight schools in rural Mozambique translated training in literacy instruction into classroom instruction. We used three domains of teacher knowledge – content knowledge, pedagogical knowledge and pedagogical content knowledge – to analyse interview and observation data. While some aspects of training translated into classroom practices, including explicit literacy instruction and use of visual aids, teachers rarely used activities for oral language development or reading comprehension, which are critical to producing skilled readers. We discuss the research and policy implications of these findings.
The role of Bells in the continuous accretion between the CM and CR chondrite reservoirs

Published: March 2020

AbstractCM meteorites are dominant members of carbonaceous chondrites (CCs), which evidently accreted in a region separated from the terrestrial planets. These chondrites are key in determining the accretion regions of solar system materials, since in Mg and Cr isotope space, they intersect between what are identified as inner and outer solar system reservoirs. In this model, the outer reservoir is represented by metal‐rich carbonaceous chondrites (MRCCs), including CR chondrites. An important question remains whether the barrier between MRCCs and CCs was a temporal or spatial one. CM chondrites and chondrules are used here to identify the nature of the barrier as well as the timescale of chondrite parent body accretion. We find based on high precision Mg and Cr isotope data of seven CM chondrites and 12 chondrules, that accretion in the CM chondrite reservoir was continuous lasting <3 Myr and showing late accretion of MRCC‐like material reflected by the anomalous CM chondrite Bells. We further argue that although MRCCs likely accreted later than CM chondrites, CR chondrules must have initially formed from a reservoir spatially separated from CM chondrules. Finally, we hypothesize on the nature of the spatial barrier separating these reservoirs.

AbstractWe present a case of alternating vertebral artery occlusions due to hangman fracture which was detected by repeated ultrasound. An 89‐year‐old woman presented with sudden onset of consciousness disturbance. Magnetic resonance imaging showed bilateral cerebellar ischemic lesions and daily alternating vertebral artery occlusions. Carotid ultrasonography and transcranial color flow imaging showed blood flow changes from day to day which indicated an abnormal hemodynamic status of bilateral vertebral artery. Computed tomography angiography revealed hangman fracture and severe compression of bilateral vertebral artery with thrombi. We applied Halo‐Vest fixation and started the patient on anticoagulation therapy. Then, carotid ultrasonography and transcranial color flow imaging demonstrated improvement of bilateral vertebral artery blood flow. The patient remained free of neurological deficits after Halo‐Vest fixation and anticoagulation. This case highlights the importance of repeated ultrasonographic evaluation of cerebral arteries in patients with ischemic stroke by hangman fracture.

AbstractBackgroundEarly screening of diabetic kidney disease (DKD) remains a major challenge. Our aim was to evaluate the value of urinary orosomucoid 1 protein (UORM1) in early renal impairment screening in type‐2 diabetes patients.MethodsThe concentration of UORM1, the UORM1‐to‐creatinine ratio (UORM1CR), the urinary albumin‐to‐creatinine ratio (ACR), the alpha‐1‐microglobulin‐to‐creatinine ratio (A1MCR) and estimated glomerular filtration rate (eGFR) were measured in 406 type‐2 diabetes patients. Any positive values for ACR, A1MCR and/or eGFR were considered as indicative of renal impairment.ResultsOn average, the levels of UORM1 and UORM1CR were about seven times higher in subjects with renal injury than in those without. Both UORM1 and UORM1CR, when adjusted via logarithm‐transformation, were significantly related to ACR, A1MCR and eGFR levels. The highest correlation was observed between UORM1CR and A1MCR (r = 0.85, P < .001). The cut‐off values for UORM1 (2.53 mg/L) and UORM1CR (3.69 mg/g) for the early diagnosis of kidney impairment were obtained from receiver operating characteristic curves. UORM1CR obviously had higher diagnostic efficiency corresponding to 83.26% sensitivity and 90.32% specificity than UORM1. Likewise, its sensitivity was higher than those of ACR, A1MCR and eGFR. Bad glycaemic control had the highest risk of increased UORM1CR (odds ratio [OR] = 2.81, P < .001), while high HDL‐C (high‐density lipoprotein cholesterol) decreased the risk of increased UORM1CR (OR = 0.38, P = .017).ConclusionThe UORM1CR (>3.69 mg/g) has the high diagnostic efficiency for the early screening of renal impairment in type‐2 diabetes patients. Furthermore, good glycaemic control and high HDL‐C might be protective factors against UORM1CR increase.

AbstractBackgroundTuberculosis of the myocardium is an extremely rare entity with few published case reports. Diagnosis is often delayed, and outcomes are unfavorable: particularly when cardiac involvement has been the presenting entity.MethodsFour patients, aged 24‐51 years, presented with life‐threatening ventricular arrhythmia (VA). None had a previous history of tuberculosis or any structural heart disease. Electrocardiogram during sinus rhythm and Echocardiography did not show any gross abnormality. All patients underwent contrast‐enhanced computer tomography of thorax and cardiac magnetic resonance imaging. Attempts to obtain tissue (cardiac or associated mediastinal lymph nodes) were associated with increased risk to the patients thus indirect evidence of Mantoux skin test and interferon gamma release assay results were used to aid diagnosis.ResultsBased on clinicoradiological findings, patients were put on antitubercular therapy (ATT). Supportive therapy included antiarrhythmic drugs (all patients), catheter ablation (two patients), and implantable cardioverter defibrillator (one patient). Arrhythmia suppression was achieved in all patients predischarge. On a follow‐up of 2‐24 months, none of the patients has had any recurrence of arrhythmia. ATT and antiarrhythmic drug therapy have been stopped in two patients who have completed the 6 months of ATT. Their radiological lesions showed resolution.ConclusionsMyocardial tuberculosis presenting as life‐threatening VA in a rare but definite clinical entity. A high index of suspicion and cardiac imaging can lead to early diagnosis and appropriate treatment that ensures survival in all patients.

AbstractBackground/ObjectivesGlycopyrronium tosylate (GT) cloth, 2.4% is a topical anticholinergic approved in the United States for primary axillary hyperhidrosis in patients ≥9 years. This post hoc analysis evaluated long‐term response (efficacy and safety) in pediatric patients (≥9 to ≤16 years) to GT in the 44‐week, open‐label extension (NCT02553798) of two, phase 3, double‐blind, vehicle‐controlled, 4‐week trials (NCT02530281, NCT02530294).MethodsIn the double‐blind trials, patients ≥9 years with primary axillary hyperhidrosis were randomized 2:1 to once‐daily GT:vehicle. Those who completed the study could receive open‐label GT for up to an additional 44 weeks. Safety assessments included treatment‐emergent adverse events (TEAEs) and local skin reactions (LSRs). Descriptive efficacy assessments included gravimetrically measured sweat production, Hyperhidrosis Disease Severity Scale response (≥2‐grade improvement), and Children's Dermatology Life Quality Index.ResultsOf 43 pediatric patients completing either double‐blind trial, 38 (88.4%) entered the open‐label extension (age, years: 9 [n = 1], 12 [n = 2], 13 [n = 7], 14 and 15 [n = 9 each], 16 [n = 10]). The safety profile observed was similar to the double‐blind trials. Most TEAEs (>95%) were mild/moderate, related to anticholinergic activity, and infrequently led to discontinuation (n = 1/38 [2.6%]). No pediatric patients experienced a serious TEAE. Most anticholinergic TEAEs did not require a dose modification and resolved within 7 days. Approximately, one‐third of patients (n = 13/38 [34.2%]) had LSRs; most were mild/moderate in severity. Improvements in efficacy measures were maintained from the double‐blind trials.ConclusionsLong‐term, once‐daily GT for up to 48 weeks (4‐week double‐blind plus 44 week open label) provides a noninvasive, well‐tolerated treatment option for pediatric patients with primary axillary hyperhidrosis.
Labor protection laws and the drain on productivity: Evidence from India
Authors: Schwab Daniel 
Published: March 2020

AbstractEmployment protection legislation (EPL) is designed to promote securityers by placing restrictions on firing, but it generates unintended consequences. With India as a setting, I argue that EPL shifts jobs from younger to older workers in two ways: by discouraging the hiring of unproven young workers and by preventing the firing of low‐productivity workers. The identification strategy is motivated by Rajan and Zingales (1998): I assume that EPL is more binding in those manufacturing sectors where the involuntary separation rate in other countries is high. The data show that older workers are more likely to have formal jobs, and the effect is strongest in high‐firing sectors, which indicates that EPL shifts jobs from young to old. Additionally, EPL reduces plant‐level total factor productivity, and this effect is seen only in plants which are large enough to fall within the purview of EPL, which provides a useful placebo test.
Progressive Taxation and Economic Stability*
Authors: Alessandrini Diana 
Published: March 2020

AbstractRecent empirical evidence finds that progressive taxation is an effective economic stabilizer, but theoretical results disagree. This paper shows that a lifecycle model with total factor productivity shocks can match the empirical evidence. If the US economy switched from progressive to proportional taxation, output volatility would increase by 5 percent. Progressive taxes act as stabilizers by reducing income volatility among the young and soon‐to‐be retirees. Thus, incorporating a rich lifecycle structure in the model is important to match the data. The model is then used to study the welfare implications of reducing tax progressivity.

ObjectiveAs suicide attempts by definition entail at least some threat to physical integrity and life, they theoretically qualify as an A1 criterion for posttraumatic stress disorder (PTSD). This study uses the unique opportunity of deep wrist injuries to quantify the effect of intentionality on PTSD rates by comparing suicide attempt survivors with patients who sustained accidental injuries similar in mechanism, localization, and extent.MethodPatients who had been admitted with an acute deep wrist injury from 2008 to 2016 filled out the revised Impact of Event Scale and reported other known PTSD risk factors. Mental morbidity and intentionality of the injury were determined by psychiatric consultation during the index hospitalization.ResultsFifty‐one patients were followed up (72.5% male, 92.2% Caucasian, mean age at injury 42.3 ± 17.5 years, 72.5% accidental injuries), on average 4.2 ± 2.9 years after their injury. The intentionality of the injury alone predicted the severity of intrusions, avoidance, hyperarousal, and probable PTSD (aOR = 14.0).ConclusionsTraumatization in the context of a suicide attempt may be a hitherto unknown PTSD risk factor. Patients after suicide attempts, especially medically serious attempts, should be monitored for PTSD symptoms.
La cuestión misionera en Medellín
Authors: Raschietti Stefano 
Published: March 2020

Al revisar los documentos de la II Conferencia General del Episcopado Latinoamericano (1968) se constata la falta de una reflexión específicamente misionera. Sin embargo, Medellín ofrece elementos esenciales para un debate misionológico propiamente latinoamericano. Son objetivos de este trabajo rescatar los aportes del Documento de Melgar en preparación de Medellín, rememorar la ponencia de monseñor Samuel Ruiz “La evangelización en América Latina” en la Conferencia, y plantear consideraciones sobre las líneas maestras que permean el Documento final. De esta indagación es posible entrever problemáticas emergentes, perspectivas misioneras, algunas lagunas y, particularmente, ejes fundamentales sobre los cuales configurar una teología de la misión a partir de América Latina.

Purpose: This study examined the association between self-perceived actual and ideal body sizes and objectively assessed moderate-to-vigorous physical activity (MVPA) among adolescents, controlling for puberty, fat mass index, and sex. A secondary objective was to explore the association between objectively assessed fat mass index and MVPA. Methods: Participants were 438 early adolescents (Mage = 11.61, SD = 0.92). Participants selected body sizes that represented their self-perceived actual and ideal bodies. Participants then wore an accelerometer for 1 week to assess MVPA. Polynomial regression analysis with response surface methods was used to explore MVPA in relation to the discrepancy and agreement (ie, no discrepancy) between self-perceived actual and ideal body sizes. Results: When self-perceived actual and ideal body sizes were in agreement and represented smaller and larger bodies, MVPA was low. Participants with similar self-perceived actual and ideal bodies in the middle of the body-size spectrum demonstrated the highest levels of MVPA. The direction and degree of the discrepancy between self-perceived actual and ideal bodies were not significantly associated with MVPA. Fat mass index was significantly and negatively associated with MVPA. Conclusions: These findings may inform physical activity promotion programs and provide methodological contributions to the study of how body image and MVPA are related.
