Sensory Processing Mediates the Relationship Between Attention and Social Responsiveness in Young Adults With and Without Autism Spectrum Disorders (ASD)
Authors: Crasta Jewel , Davies Patricia , Gavin William 
Published: July 2020

Abstract
Date Presented 03/26/20
Attention, sensory processing, and social skills each represent targets for OT intervention in ASD, and understanding the complex interrelationships between these constructs will allow therapists to design more efficient interventions. Study results indicate that sensory processing, specifically low registration, fully mediated the relationship between attentional abilities and social responsiveness in 24 young adults with ASD and 24 age-matched neurotypical peers.

Schizophrenia and Motor Learning: A Scoping Review
Authors: Dimitropoulou Katherine , Westover Lee 
Published: July 2020

Abstract
Date Presented 03/27/20
Schizophrenia is commonly understood as a mental illness, but a growing body of evidence indicates that it is a complex neurological condition that profoundly impacts motor performance and learning. Thus, functional skills and participation are significantly affected. This scoping review aims to understand motor-learning processes in adults with schizophrenia with the goal of expanding our ability to support functional skill development in this population.

Managing Everyday Health-Related Decisions Among Children and Adolescents With Celiac Disease
Authors: Meyer Sonya , Lionetti Elena , Catassi Carlo 
Published: July 2020

Abstract
Date Presented 03/27/20
Celiac disease is a chronic condition that’s treated by a strict, lifelong, gluten-free diet. Children and adolescents with celiac face ongoing challenges of making daily dietary choices. As children grow, they need to become more involved in the decision-making process and take on self-management responsibilities. OTs have an important role in promoting self-management of celiac disease and the decision-making process during the transition years from adolescence to young adulthood.

Subversive Spanish Cinema
Authors: Noble Fiona 
Published: July 2020

A camp lipsynched routine by three air stewards distracts unsuspecting passengers from the fact that their plane is to make a crash landing. Performance functions as a diversion from unsavoury realities. In this way, Pedro Almodóvar’s 2013 film I’m So Excited adopts a strategy of subversive anti-establishment censor-evading filmmaking practices under Franco. Contemporary cinematic performance in Spain intersects with politics to provide a platform for views and voices that do not conform to the dominant political narrative.
An essential text for scholars, students and aficionados of Spanish cinema, Subversive Spanish Cinema: The Politics of Performance is the first single-authored monograph to focus on performance in this context. The book analyses interactions between performance and politics in technical and conceptual terms considering, for example, performance styles, the narrative role of performance and political interventions by actors such as Javier Bardem and Juan Diego Botto. Ultimately, Subversive Spanish Cinema: The Politics of Performance posits performance, within the specific context of contemporary Spanish cinema, as a politically-potent device and proposes that it is precisely for this reason that the arts have borne the brunt of aggressive austerity measures enforced by Spain’s conservative government in recent years.
Janet Jackson's The Velvet Rope
Authors: Dozier Ayanna 
Published: July 2020

The question of control for Black women is a costly one. From 1986 onwards, the trajectory of Janet Jackson’s career can be summed up in her desire for control. Control for Janet was never simply just about her desire for economic and creative control over her career but was, rather, an existential question about the desire to control and be in control over her bodily integrity as a Black woman.
This book examines Janet’s continuation of her quest for control as heard in her sixth album, The Velvet Rope. Engaging with the album, the promotion, the tour, and its accompanying music videos, this study unpacks how Janet uses Black cultural production as an emancipatory act of self-creation that allows her to reconcile with and, potentially, heal from trauma, pain, and feelings of alienation. The Velvet Rope’s arc moves audiences to imagine the possibility of what emancipation from oppression--from sexual, to internal, to societal--could look like for the singer and for others. The sexually charged content and themes of abuse, including self-harm and domestic violence, were dismissed as “selling points” for Janet at the time of its release. The album stands out as a revelatory expression of emotional vulnerability by the singer, one that many other artists have followed in the 20-plus years since its release.
Risk of cardiovascular disease with lipoprotein(a) in familial hypercholesterolemia: a review
Authors: Watanabe Jun , Hamasaki Masato , Kotani  Kazuhiko 
Published: July 2020

IntroductionLipoprotein(a) (Lp[a]) is a risk factor of cardiovascular disease (CVD). Familial hypercholesterolemia (FH), which exhibits high low-density lipoprotein cholesterol (LDL-C) levels, is a risk factor of CVD. The relationship of Lp(a) with CVD has been characterized in populations specific to FH.Material and methodsStudies reporting on the relationship of Lp(a) with CVD among FH subjects via PubMed up to 2020 were reviewed.ResultsEight studies were identified as eligible. In the meta-analyses, a high Lp(a) level was significantly and predictively associated with CVD compared to a low Lp(a) level in 2 cross-sectional studies (odds ratio = 2.57; 95% confidence interval (CI): 1.16–5.73) and 6 cohort studies (risk/hazard ratio = 1.91; 95% CI: 1.50–2.43). The totally integrated relative risk of these studies was 1.97 (95% CI: 1.57–2.46).ConclusionsFH subjects with high Lp(a) levels can have a high CVD risk, and besides LDL-C, attention should be paid to Lp(a) levels in FH subjects.
Comparison of effectiveness and survival after the MitraClip or Carillon procedure for severe functional mitral regurgitation: a single-center retrospective analysis

Published: July 2020

IntroductionCurrent studies suggest improved survival in patients with severe functional mitral regurgitation (FMR) treated successfully with the MitraClip (MC) compared to medical treatment alone, in addition to a significant reduction of FMR severity. Recently, the Carillon system (CS) has also been shown to significantly reduce FMR. However, whether this beneficial effect of CS also translates into a survival benefit comparable to the MC system has not been investigated so far. The aim of the study was to compare the course of FMR grade and mortality after MC or CS in a retrospective, non-randomized, single-center analysis.Material and methodsA hundred and fifty-four patients with symptomatic FMR 2+ were included in this study (MC: n = 117, CS: n = 37). Baseline characteristics did not differ significantly between groups.ResultsInitially, the degree of FMR was reduced in the MC group from 2.9 ±0.3 to 1.7 ±0.7 and from 2.7 ±0.5 to 2.1 ±0.7 in the CS group, p within and between groups < 0.01. Within 6 months, FMR remained reduced in the MC group (1.83 ±0.6) and CS group (2.1 ±0.7). One-year survival was 34.8% in the MC group and 54.8% in the CS group (p = 0.663). Median long-term survival was 1.66 years in the MC group and 3.92 years in the CS group, log rank p = 0.001.
Hostile climates are barriers to diversifying the geosciences

Published: July 2020

Abstract. The geosciences are one of the least diverse disciplines in the United States, despite the field's relevance to livelihoods and local and global economies. Bias, discrimination, and harassment present serious hurdles to diversifying the field. These behaviors persist due to historical structures of exclusion, severe power imbalances, unique challenges associated with geoscientist stereotypes, and a culture of impunity that
tolerates exclusionary behaviors and marginalization of scholars from
underserved groups. We summarize recent research on exclusionary behaviors that create hostile climates and contribute to persistent low retention of diverse groups in the geosciences and other science, technology, engineering, and mathematics (STEM) fields. We then discuss recent initiatives in the US by geoscience professional societies and organizations, including the National Science Foundation-supported
ADVANCEGeo Partnership, to improve diversity, equity, and inclusion by
improving workplace climate. Social networks and professional organizations
can transform scientific culture through providing opportunities for
mentorship and community building and counteracting professional isolation
that can result from experiencing hostile behaviors, codifying ethical
practice, and advocating for policy change. We conclude with a call for a
reexamination of current institutional structures, processes, and practices
for a transformational and equitable scientific enterprise. To be truly
successful, cultural and behavioral changes need to be accompanied by
reeducation about the historical political structures of academic
institutions to start conversations about the real change that has to happen
for a transformational and equitable scientific enterprise.

Published: July 2020

In this study, we characterized 30 date palm trees of Khalas cultivar from the GCC countries, along with seven male trees from Qatar, using 14 microsatellite loci. The results showed that the microsatellites [(GA)n] in the date palm cultivar Khalas varied considerably in allele size (range = 120–322 bp, mean = 189.78), which revealed a high degree of gene diversity (range = 0.66–0.85, mean = 0.75) and distinguished all the individual Khalas trees within and among the GCC countries. The extent of polymorphism microsatellite loci was dependent on individual loci itself, which was positively correlated with the number of repeats at the corresponding microsatellite loci. The estimates of the skewness and kurtosis of the allelic distributions showed that none of the distribution of 14 microsatellite loci was considered normal (skewness = 0, kurtosis = 3), which suggested that the shape of the allelic distribution of these loci varied by chance. In the majority of the cases, the microsatellite allele size of the most frequent allele (mode) was very close to the median ( ± 2 bp or ± (GA)1), which indicated that the most frequent allele was the ancestral allele. Nearly half of the allelic distributions of the 14 microsatellite loci were positively skewed and the other half was negatively skewed, which indicated that the alleles evolved respectively by gaining and losing of (GA)n repeats from the ancestral allele, resulting in intra-cultivar variability in Khalas cultivar over the generations. Based on this analysis, we conclude that the Khalas variety did not evolve independently at multiple origins, but rather it evolved from a single origin and, subsequently, the clones were distributed across the GCC countries. The accumulated mutations of these clones over time resulted in drastic changes among them at the microsatellite loci.
Resident, Fellow, and Attending Perception of E-Learning During the COVID-19 Pandemic and Implications on Future Orthopaedic Education
Authors: Essilfie Anthony A. , Hurley Eoghan T. , Strauss Eric J. , Alaia Michael J. 
Published: July 2020

Introduction:
The purpose of the current study was to evaluate resident, fellow, and attending perspectives on the use of e-learning as part of orthopaedic surgery education.

Methods:
A survey was created evaluating (1) overall attitudes toward e-learning, (2) multi-institutional e-learning/e-conferences, (3) national/regional e-conferences, and (4) future directions with e-learning. The survey was distributed to all the orthopaedic surgery residency program directors in the United States, and they were asked to circulate the survey to their program's faculty and trainees.

Results:
A total of 268 responses were collected, including 100 attendings and 168 trainees. Overall satisfaction with e-learning compared with in-person learning was higher among trainees than attending faculty, with 51.4% of trainees favoring e-learning, as opposed to 32.2% of attendings (P = 0.006). Both groups felt they were more likely to pay attention with in-person learning (P = 0.89). During the COVID-19 pandemic, 85.7% of residents have used e-learning platforms to join a conference in their specialty of interest while off-service. Most attendings and trainees felt e-learning should play a supplemental role in standard residency/fellowship education, with a low number of respondents feeling that it should not be used (86.6% versus 84%, and 2.1% versus 0.6%, respectively, P = 0.28).

Conclusion:
E-learning has been an important modality to continue academic pursuits during the disruption in usual education and training schedules during the COVID-19 pandemic. Most trainees and attendings surveyed felt that e-learning should play a supplementary role in resident and fellow education moving forward. Although e-learning does provide an opportunity to hold multi-institutional conferences and makes participation in meetings logistically easier, it cannot fully replicate the dynamic interactions and benefits of in-person learning.
Comprehensive assessment of the morbidity of renal mass biopsy: A population-based assessment of biopsy-related complications
Authors: Garbens Alaina , Wallis Christopher , Klaassen Zachary , Saskin Refik , Plumptre Lesley , Kodama Ronald , Herschorn Sender , Nam Robert 
Published: July 2020

Introduction: We sought to assess seven-day and 30-day complications following renal mass biopsy (RMB), including mortality, hospitalizations, emergency department (ED) visits, and operative and non-operative complications and compare these to rates in population matched controls.
Methods: We performed a population-based, matched, retrospective cohort study of patients undergoing RMB following consultation with a urologist and axial imaging from 2003–2015 in Ontario, Canada. Data on seven-day and 30-day rates of mortality, operative and non operative complications after RMB were reported. The seven-day and 30-day rates of mortality, operative and non-operative interventions, hospitalizations, and ED visits were compared to matched controls using multivariable logistic regression.
Results: Among 6840 patients who underwent RMB in the study period, 24 (0.4%) and 159 (2.3%) died within seven and 30 days, respectively, of their biopsy. Seven- and 30-day operative intervention rates were 79 (1.2%) and 236 (3.4%), respectively. Seven- and 30-day non-operative intervention rates were 227 (3.3%) and 529 (7.7%) respectively. Thirty-day mortality (odds ratio [OR] 8.1; 95% confidence interval [CI] 5.1–13.0), hospitalizations (OR 12.6; 95% CI 10.6–15.2), and ED visits (OR 3.8; 95% CI 3.4–4.3) were more common among patients who underwent RMB than the matched controls (p<0.001 for each).
Conclusions: Patients undergoing RMB may have a small but non-negligible increased risk of mortality, hospital readmission, and ED visits compared to matched controls. However, limitations in the granularity of the dataset limits the strength of these conclusions. Further studies are needed to confirm our results. These risks should be discussed with patients for shared decision-making and considered in the risk/benefit tradeoff for the management of small renal masses.

Le désistement du crime des adolescents judiciarisés « multiproblématiques » soumis à une ordonnance différée de placement et de surveillance
Authors: C.-Dubé1 Roxanne , F.-Dufour Isabelle 
Published: July 2020

En analysant les dossiers de suivi d’adolescents soumis à une ordonnance différée de placement et de surveillance (ODP), cette étude vise à déterminer les interventions qui permettent de soutenir le processus de désistement du crime d’adolescents judiciarisés « multiproblématiques ». Cette étude exploratoire montre que s’ils sont capables d’encadrer les comportements inadéquats, de soutenir la démarche de réhabilitation et de favoriser la (ré)intégration sociocommunautaire, les délégués à la jeunesse peuvent contribuer à l’émergence d’un « projet de vie » qui apparaît indispensable au processus de désistement du crime des adolescents judiciarisés « multiproblématiques » qui, autrement, risquent de s’enliser davantage dans une carrière criminelle sérieuse, violente et chronique. L’analyse se conclut par la présentation de trois recommandations pour améliorer les suivis offerts dans le cadre de l’ordonnance différée de placement et de surveillance.
