Published: June 2020

PurposePeople are responsible for their wellbeing, yet whether they take ownership of their own or even others' wellbeing might vary from actor to actor. Such psychological ownership (PO) influences the dynamics of how wellbeing is co-created, particularly amongst actors, and ultimately determines actors' subjective wellbeing. The paper's research objective pertains to explicating the concept of the co-creation of wellbeing and conceptualizing the dynamics inherent to the co-creation of wellbeing with consideration of the influences of all involved actors from a PO perspective.Design/methodology/approachTo provide a new conceptualization and framework for the dynamics of wellbeing co-creation, this research synthesizes wellbeing, PO and value co-creation literature. Four healthcare cases serve to illustrate the effects of engaged actors' PO on the co-creation of wellbeing.FindingsThe derived conceptual framework of dynamic co-creation of wellbeing suggests four main propositions: (1) the focal actor's wellbeing state is the intangible target of the focal actor's and other engaged actors' PO, transformed throughout the process of wellbeing co-creation, (2) PO over the focal actor's wellbeing state is subject to the three interrelated routes of exercising control, investing in the target, and intimately knowing the target, which determine the instigation of wellbeing co-creation, (3) the level of PO over the focal actor's wellbeing state can vary, influence and be influenced by the extent of wellbeing co-creation, (4) the co-creation of wellbeing, evoked by PO, is founded on resource integration, which influences the resources–challenges equilibrium of focal actor and of all other engaged actors, affecting individual subjective wellbeing.Originality/valueThis article provides a novel conceptual framework that can shed new light on the co-creation of wellbeing in service research. Through the introduction of PO the transformation of lives and wellbeing can be better understood.

Purpose
The purpose of this study is to identify the knowledge and management skills of health-care workers regarding psychosocial and mental health priorities and needs of individuals with COVID-19.

Design/methodology/approach
This is a cross-sectional descriptive study. The data collected conveniently from 101 health-care workers in Jordan directly managing care of individuals with COVID-19.

Findings
Health-care workers have moderate-to-high level of knowledge and management skills of psychological distress related to COVID-19; means ranged from 50%–70% agreement and confidence. In general, health-care workers were able to identify mental and psychosocial health needs and priorities at a moderate level. Health-care workers knowledge had a positive and significant correlation with age (r = 0.24, p = 0.012) and years of experience (r = 0.28, p = 0.004), and a significant difference was found in their management between those who are trained on psychological first aids and those who are not (t = −3.11, p = 0.003).

Practical implications
There is a need to train health-care workers to integrate psychosocial and mental health care to manage care psychological distress related to COVID-19.

Originality/value
This study is emphasizing the need for mental health psychosocial support training and in integration. Health-care workers providing care to individuals with COVID-19 are not aware of mental health priorities and needs of their patients. This paper contributes to the body of knowledge adding more understanding about competencies of health-care workers providing care and their preparedness to manage care individuals with COVID-19.

Abstract

At broad spatial scales, the factors regulating litter decomposition remain ambiguous, with the understanding of these factors largely based on studies investigating site‐specific single litter species, whereas studies using multi litter species mixtures across sites are rare.

We exposed in microcosms containing single species and all possible mixtures of four leaf litter species differing widely in initial chemical and physical characteristics from a temperate forest to the climatic conditions of four different forests across the Northern Hemisphere for 1 year.

Calcium, magnesium and condensed tannins predicted litter mass loss of single litter species and mixtures across forest types and biomes, regardless of species richness and microarthropod presence. However, relative mixture effects differed among forest types and varied with the access to the litter by microarthropods. Access to the microcosms by microarthropods modified the decomposition of individual litter species within mixtures, which differed among forest types independent of litter species richness and composition of litter mixtures. However, soil microarthropods generally only little affected litter decomposition.

Synthesis. We conclude that litter identity is the dominant driver of decomposition across different forest types and the non‐additive litter mixture effects vary among biomes despite identical leaf litter chemistry. These results suggest that across large spatial scales the environmental context of decomposing litter mixtures, including microarthropod communities, determine the decomposition of litter mixtures besides strong litter trait‐based effects.

Published: June 2020

AbstractClinical guidelines for monitoring low‐density lipoprotein cholesterol (LDL‐C) after statin therapy do not clearly define the clinical roles of baseline LDL‐C, ΔLDL‐C, and achieved LDL‐C according to statin intensity. We performed post‐hoc analysis of the Treating to New Target (TNT) study to evaluate individual LDL‐C parameters after statin therapy. Primary outcome was the risk for total major adverse cardiovascular events (MACE). We use resampling multilevel mediation analysis to analyze complex relationships among LDL‐C parameters based on similar statin intensities. Tertiles for resample A (matched baseline LDL‐C; distinct achieved LDL), resample B (matched ΔLDL‐C; distinct baseline LDL‐C), and resample C (matched achieved LDL‐C; distinct ΔLDL‐C) were analyzed using Cox proportional hazard ratios. In original data analysis, the incidence of MACE was reduced in those with lower achieved LDL‐C in total, low, and high intensity statin users (hazard ratios [HRs] = 0.990, 0.992, 0.992; respectively; all P‐values < .001). In mediation analysis, resample A showed consistently high incidence for MACE in the middle tertile (HR = 1.237; 95% confidential interval [CI] = 1.008‐1.517; P‐value = .041) and highest tertile (HR = 1.275; 95% CI = 1.021‐1.592; P‐value = .032) compared to the lowest tertile. However, resamples B and C did not show consistent differences. Similarly, no consistent statistical difference in MACE according to statin intensity. Lower achieved LDL‐C decreased MACE in participants with a similar baseline LDL‐C after statin therapy. However, the change in absolute values of ΔLDL‐C and achieved LDL‐C should be interpreted in an individualized manner due to their complex collinearity, and statin intensity should also be taken into consideration.

Published: June 2020

AbstractThe purpose of this paper is to investigate how farmers' access to credit affects agricultural commercialization in the northern Savannah ecological zone of Ghana. The study uses data from the Ghana Feed the Future baseline survey involving a total sample of 2,962 farm households. The study employs endogenous switching regression for ordered outcomes to account for endogeneity and self‐selection bias in the decision to access credit. The results from the estimations revealed that education, age, nonfarm business equipment, multiple crop production, and group membership are the variables influencing farmers' access to credit. Agricultural commercialization is determined by gender, age, marital status, household size, farm size, nonfarm business equipment, means of transport, group membership, assets index, multiple crop production, and location. In terms of causal effect, the results show that credit access stimulates higher commercialization. Thus policies that enhance farmers' access to credit are more likely to be successful in getting them to commercialize.

AbstractBackgroundThis paper examines oral health impacts of toothache experience, self‐rated oral health (SROH), being uncomfortable with dental appearance, and avoiding foods in the Australian adult population.MethodsThe explanatory variables include age, sex, region, income, area‐based SES, dental insurance and visiting pattern. The data were collected in the interview in NSAOH 2017–18.ResultsThere were lower percentages with: toothache in the highest (14.8%) than middle (21.2%) and lower income tertiles (25.2%); fair/poor SROH in the highest (15.8%) than middle (24.1%) and lower tertiles (34.8%); uncomfortable with appearance in the highest (29.1%) than middle (35.3%) and lower tertiles (42.2%); and food avoidance in the higher (15.3%) than middle (22.9%) and lower tertiles (34.4%). There were higher percentages with: toothache in the unfavourable (32.2%) than intermediate (23.1%) and favourable (11.7%) visiting groups; fair/poor SROH in the unfavourable (44.0%) than intermediate (27.4%) or favourable (10.2%) groups; being uncomfortable about appearance in the unfavourable (47.6%) than intermediate (39.5%) or favourable (25.8%) groups; and avoiding foods in the unfavourable (34.8%) than intermediate (26.0%) or favourable (14.5%) groups.ConclusionsSocioeconomic status and dental visiting were associated with oral health impacts. Oral health impacts were worse for those with lower income and unfavourable visiting patterns.
Prolonged abnormal isolated aminotransferase levels in healthy children is a benign condition
Authors: Magen‐Rimon Ramit , Shaoul Ron 
Published: June 2020

AbstractAimHypertransaminasaemia is a common incidental finding in children. It has been demonstrated that even prolonged elevation usually resolves spontaneously without clear aetiology. The aim of this study was to evaluate whether a longer follow‐up period, on a larger group, supports the previous findings.MethodsWe retrospectively reviewed medical charts of children diagnosed with prolonged idiopathic hypertransaminasaemia, which spontaneously resolved over the follow‐up period.ResultsOf the 468 patients screened for elevated transaminases levels, 87 patients younger than 5 years of age were included in the study. An aetiology was found in half of the patients, and the most common aetiologies were fatty liver and cytomegalovirus (CMV) infection.Aminotransferase abnormality persisted for a median of 10 months, and alanine aminotransferase (ALT) levels ranged from 1.5 to 15.9‐fold of the upper limit of normal (ULN).After normalisation of transaminase levels, the values remained normal for a documented mean period of 6.4 ± 3.0 years.ConclusionAlthough idiopathic asymptomatic aminotransferase elevation in healthy children resolves spontaneously in most children, the abnormality may be prolonged. Comprehensive workup finds aetiology only in half of the patients, and the most common aetiologies are fatty liver and CMV hepatitis, which can be diagnosed by non‐invasive methods.

AbstractThis study evaluates the effect of a low‐voltage electrical stimulation (ES) on the tenderness of yak longissimus muscle (LM). Samples from 16 yak bulls were divided into four treatment groups: normal chilling (NC), ES and chilling (ES & C) for 72 s (ES &C 72 s), ES & C for 90 s (ES & C 90 s), and ES & C for 108 s (ES & C 108 s). The temperature, the pH, the glycogen content, the Warner‐Bratzler shear force (WBSF), the myofibril fragmentation index (MFI), and the muscle ultrastructure were determined during the course of postmortem aging. ES caused a rapid decrease in the pH to form a high‐temperature and low‐pH environment. The glycogen content gradually decreased with aging. The WBSF value of the ES & C groups was significantly lower than for the NC group (p < .05). The MFI values of ES & C groups after 24 hr postmortem aging were significantly higher than for the NC group. We concluded that ES improved yak meat tenderness during postmortem aging and that the different duration time by ES indicated different effects, and its affect was remarkable in the ES & C 90 s.

AbstractBackgroundNeurovascular abnormalities are relevant to the pathophysiology of bipolar disorder (BD), which can be assessed using cerebral blood flow (CBF) imaging. CBF alterations have been identified in BD, but studies to date have been small and inconclusive. We aimed to determine cortical gray matter CBF (GM‐CBF) differences between BD and healthy controls (HC) and to identify relationships between CBF and clinical or cognitive measures.MethodsCortical GM‐CBF maps were generated using Pseudo‐Continuous Arterial Spin Labeling (pCASL) for 109 participants (BD, n = 61; HC, n = 48). We used SnPM13 to perform non‐parametric voxel‐wise two‐sample t‐tests comparing CBF between groups. We performed multiple linear regression to relate GM‐CBF with clinical and cognitive measures. Analysis was adjusted for multiple comparisons with 10,000 permutations. Significance was set at a voxel level threshold of P < .001 followed by AlphaSim cluster‐wise correction of P < .05.ResultsCompared to HCs, BD patients had greater GM‐CBF in the left lateral occipital cortex, superior division and lower CBF in the right lateral occipital, angular and middle temporal gyrus. Greater GM‐CBF in the left lateral occipital cortex correlated with worse working memory, verbal memory, attention and speed of processing. We found using voxel‐wise regression that decreased gray matter CBF in the bilateral thalamus and cerebellum, and increased right fronto‐limbic CBF were associated with worse working memory. No clusters were associated with clinical variables after FDR correction.ConclusionsCortical GM‐CBF alterations are seen in BD and may be related to cognitive function, which suggest neurovascular unit dysfunction as a possible pathophysiologic mechanism.

SummaryPrimary objective of this non‐interventional, post‐authorisation safety study was to provide real‐world safety data [incidence of adverse drug reactions (ADRs)/serious adverse events (SAEs)] on adult patients with myelofibrosis exposed/or not exposed to ruxolitinib. Key secondary objectives included the incidence/outcome of events of special interest (bleeding events, serious/opportunistic infections, second primary malignancies, and deaths). Overall, 462 patients were included [prevalent users = 260, new users = 32, non‐exposed = 170 (inclusive of ruxolitinib‐switch, n = 57)]. The exposure‐adjusted incidence rates (per 100 patient‐years) of ADRs (19·3 vs. 19·6) and SAEs (25·2 vs. 25·0) were comparable amongst new‐users versus prevalent‐users cohorts, respectively; most frequent ADRs across all cohorts included thrombocytopenia, anaemia, epistaxis, urinary tract infection, and herpes zoster. Anaemia, pneumonia, general physical health deterioration, sepsis, and death were the most frequent SAEs across all cohorts. Incidence rates of bleeding events (21·6) and serious/opportunistic infections (34·5) were higher in ruxolitinib‐switch cohort versus other cohorts. The incidence rate of second primary malignancies was higher in the prevalent‐users cohort (10·1) versus other cohorts. The observed safety profile of ruxolitinib in the present study along with the safety findings from the COMFORT/JUMP/EXPAND studies support the use of ruxolitinib for long‐term treatment of patients with myelofibrosis.

AbstractObjectivesThe aim of this study was to evaluate volume, vitality and diversity of biofilms on the abutment materials zirconia and titanium as a function of time using an in vivo model for the biofilm formation.Materials and methodsThe development of biofilms on zirconia and titanium grade 4 test specimens in the human oral cavity over time was analysed. After pretreatment, a total of 96 titanium and 96 zirconia discs were fixed on 12 composite splints, which were worn by 12 volunteers. After 6 hr, 24 hr, 3 days and 5 days, biofilms on 48 specimens of each material were analysed with confocal laser scanning microscopy (CLSM). The microbiota composition on the other 48 test specimens was examined using full‐length 16S sequence analysis. Statistical analysis was performed by SPSS and R, and level of significance was set at 0.05.ResultsConfocal laser scanning microscopy analysis of the biofilms revealed significant changes in volume over time on zirconia and titanium. The material did not significantly influence the volume or live/dead ratio at the individual time points. The composition of the microbiome was influenced by the age of the biofilm, but not by the material of the test specimen. The most frequently found bacteria were Streptococcus spp., followed by Neisseria spp., Rothia spp., Haemophilus spp., Gemella spp. and Abiotrophia spp.ConclusionsOn both materials, the quantity and diversity of the microbiome increased over time. Apart from a slight difference in Veillonella abundance at one time point, there were no significant differences between zirconia and titanium.

AbstractEfforts to tackle the current biodiversity crisis need to be as efficient and effective as possible given chronic underfunding. To inform decision‐makers of the most effective conservation actions, it is important to identify biases and gaps in the conservation literature to prioritize future evidence generation. We used the Conservation Evidence database to assess the state of the global literature that tests conservation actions for amphibians and birds. For the studies in the database, we investigated their spatial and taxonomic extent and distribution across biomes, effectiveness metrics, and study designs. Studies were heavily concentrated in Western Europe and North America for birds and particularly for amphibians, and temperate forest and grassland biomes were highly represented relative to their percentage of land coverage. Studies that used the most reliable study designs—before‐after control‐impact and randomized controlled trials—were the most geographically restricted and scarce in the evidence base. There were negative spatial relationships between the numbers of studies and the numbers of threatened and data‐deficient species worldwide. Taxonomic biases and gaps were apparent for amphibians and birds—some entire orders were absent from the evidence base—whereas others were poorly represented relative to the proportion of threatened species they contained. Metrics used to evaluate effectiveness of conservation actions were often inconsistent between studies, potentially making them less directly comparable and evidence synthesis more difficult. Testing conservation actions on threatened species outside Western Europe, North America, and Australasia should be prioritized. Standardizing metrics and improving the rigor of study designs used to test conservation actions would also improve the quality of the evidence base for synthesis and decision‐making.
