The Human Condition: Health, Wellness, & Emotional Connection in Museums
Authors: Diaz Abigail , Paneto Sunewan 
Published: November 2020

AbstractThis Forum article examines how the museum field has addressed illness, disability, death, and overall health with a variety of techniques. Using the Curator archive, the authors trace the evolution of dialogue about health and wellness in museums, both for visitors and staff. The authors frame the importance of these universal topics as issues of equity and inclusion with the belief that museums can utilize them to build emotional connections and spur action for social justice.
Identity & Museum Practice: Promises, Practices, and a Broken Pipeline
Authors: Morrissey Kris , Dirk Grayson 
Published: November 2020

AbstractAcknowledging and representing identities in ways that connect with contemporary society is one of the most complicated, contested and perhaps critical challenges facing museums. To explore how museums are addressing that challenge, we turned to a source of research that is rigorous, cross‐ disciplinary and often grounded in contemporary ideas of museums as sites of social activism‐doctoral dissertations and master’s theses. We analyzed almost a hundred studies and conducted interviews with 12 of the authors to explore how their research informed their practice. The studies demonstrate a range of ways that museums can and are engaging with complex ideas about identity, largely through exhibitions; occasionally through collections, collaborations, and programs; and only rarely through institutional operations. The studies position identity as core to museum work and perhaps an overlooked variable in the efforts to promote diversity, inclusion, and equity. Drawing from different disciplines, they describe identity as complex, fluid, dynamic, and intimately related to both personal experiences and societal structures of power. The studies provide compelling arguments for why museums need to change the ways they address, acknowledge, and represent identities. These arguments fell into three categories: Opportunity, Responsibility, and Survival. Interviews identified barriers to entering or advancing within the field for individuals who encompass different life experiences and perspectives. Although a small sample, we believe their experiences demonstrate a broken career pipeline that may contribute to the lack of diversity in the field. We conclude that graduate student research may provide a unique catalyst for social change.

AbstractBackgroundEarly diagnosis of cardiac amyloidosis (CA) is warranted to initiate specific treatment and improve outcome. The amyloid light chain (AL) and inferior wall thickness (IWT) scores have been proposed to assess patients referred by haematologists or with unexplained left ventricular (LV) hypertrophy, respectively. These scores are composed of 4 or 5 variables, respectively, including strain data.MethodsBased on 2 variables common to the AL and IWT scores, we defined a simple score named AMYLoidosis Index (AMYLI) as the product of relative wall thickness (RWT) and E/e′ ratio, and assessed its diagnostic performance.ResultsIn the original cohort (n = 251), CA was ultimately diagnosed in 111 patients (44%). The 2.22 value was selected as rule‐out cut‐off (negative likelihood ratio [LR−] 0.0). In the haematology subset, AL CA was diagnosed in 32 patients (48%), with 2.36 as rule‐out cut‐off (LR− 0.0). In the hypertrophy subset, ATTR CA was diagnosed in 79 patients (43%), with 2.22 as the best rule‐out cut‐off (LR− 0.0). In the validation cohort (n = 691), the same cut‐offs proved effective: indeed, there were no patients with CA in the whole population or in the haematology or hypertrophy subsets scoring < 2.22, <2.36 or < 2.22, respectively.ConclusionsThe AMYLI score (RWT*E/e′) may have a role as an initial screening tool for CA. A < 2.22 value excludes the diagnosis in patients undergoing a diagnostic screening for CA, while a < 2.36 and a < 2.22 value may be better considered in the subsets with suspected cardiac AL amyloidosis or unexplained hypertrophy, respectively.

AbstractBackground/AimKnowledge about the spatial density of the domiciles of dental trauma victims can assist in the identification of the most vulnerable areas and contribute to the planning of prevention, promotion, control, and treatment actions, focusing on the most affected areas. The aim of this study was to analyze the spatial density of domiciles of 14‐year‐old adolescent victims of dental trauma, in the city of Diamantina, Brazil, after a two‐year follow‐up period.Material and MethodsThis longitudinal study was carried out with 584 adolescents between 2013 and 2015. Dental trauma, overjet, and lip protection were assessed by two trained and calibrated examiners (K > 0.70). Information about binge drinking was collected among the adolescents through the Alcohol Use Disorders Identification Test and sociodemographic indicators were obtained through a questionnaire answered by the caregivers of the adolescents. Spatial analyses were performed to evaluate the spatial density of adolescents with dental trauma and the independent variables of interest according to the domicile using Ripley's K function and the Kernel Map.ResultsRipley's K function revealed spatial aggregation of the domiciles of adolescent victims of dental trauma in relation to males, binge drinking and overjet, with a confidence interval of 95%. The higher density of domiciles with adolescents with two or more traumatized teeth was found in the north‐east region of the city. Boys were the most affected, their homes were located in the north, north‐west, and south‐east regions at baseline and follow‐up. The largest density of domiciles of adolescents with overjet greater than 5 mm and inadequate lip protection was in the north‐east region. Similar spatial distribution was identified for binge drinking for both years.ConclusionThe majority of adolescents with dental trauma lived in the north‐east and south‐east regions, characterized by high population density and greater social vulnerability.

Published: November 2020

AbstractAimYouth suicide research stands to benefit from involving young people with lived experience as research partners; however, there may be a number of barriers to doing this successfully. The aim of this study was to identify the extent to which international youth suicide prevention researchers actively partner with young people in intervention research design, and to explore the barriers, facilitators and benefits to such engagement.MethodsNinety‐seven eligible researchers were identified using a systematic literature search and invited via email to participate in an online questionnaire.ResultsOnly 17 participants (17.5%) at least partially completed the questionnaire, and minimal qualitative data were provided.ConclusionsAnalysis of the limited data together with the low response rate suggests that the rate of youth partnerships in suicide prevention intervention research is very low. Guidelines regarding how to safely and effectively partner with young people in this sensitive research area may help to address this gap.

SummaryThe effects of superfine milling treatments on the thermal, pasting, morphological and structural characteristics of common buckwheat starch were studied. The results showed that the superfine milling could change the morphological structure of buckwheat starch granules. Superfine milling treatments decreased the relative crystallinity and destroyed crystal particles of buckwheat starch. The crystallinity of buckwheat starch was 0.00% after 4 h of the ultrafine milling treatment. There is no obvious endothermic melting peak in the buckwheat starch after ultrafine milling treatment. After superfine milling, the light transmittance, swelling power and solubility of buckwheat starch increased, while PV, TV and FV values decreased. Superfine milling could significantly improve the WHC value of buckwheat starch. This study is expected to obtain the modified buckwheat starch with improved properties and provide valuable information for starch modification employing extreme milling, as well as provide the theoretical basis for expanding the application of buckwheat starch.

SummayWe studied the textural and rheological (viscoelastic) properties of fresh lafun dough, a fermented cassava product, and their changes during storage at 45 °C for 5 and 24 h, in order to determine after‐cooking storability. Lafun flours were produced from three types of cassava varieties: seven improved white‐fleshed varieties, seven improved provitamin A carotenoids (pVAC) varieties and two local white‐fleshed varieties; and processed into lafun doughs. Pasting properties of the flours were assessed. Flours from local varieties had pasting profiles with highest viscosities, while pVAC flours had the lowest. The three types of cassava varieties varied significantly in most of their pasting properties. Four promising improved varieties were identified, based on high peak viscosity (55.8–61.5 P) and stiffer texture than local varieties during storage. Undesirable varieties were also found, which softened during storage instead of hardening. Optimum texture of lafun dough was obtained after 5 h of storage.
Understanding Managers’ Reactions to Blockchain Technologies in the Supply Chain: The Reliable and Unbiased Software Agent
Authors: Falcone Ellie C. , Steelman Zachary R. , Aloysius John A. 
Published: November 2020

AbstractOrganizations investing in supply chain information systems struggle to ensure successful adoption and implementation. Projects fail because of technical caveats, inability to meet business needs, and poor management of implementation. Implementation of blockchain technologies across a network of supply chain partners is more complex than internally focused technologies. It is necessary for partner firms to implement, contribute, and share information, and employees to actively use the capabilities of the technology to realize potential. Blockchain technologies can substitute for traditional interfirm intermediaries acting as an unbiased software agent embedded in the supply chain network. Understanding managers’ perceptions of and willingness to use blockchain technologies is crucial for successful implementation. Integrating design theory with classic diffusion processes, we conducted a scenario‐based role‐playing experiment with industry professionals to examine managers’ perceptions of blockchain technologies and willingness to use. We find that trustworthiness with regard to competence and perceived distributive justice is the focal drivers of managers’ willingness to use the technology. Additionally, both risk and interactional justice are not drivers of willingness to use blockchain technology despite significant claims to that effect. We provide implications for how managers can leverage these drivers to influence supply chain partners’ willingness to use the technology.

AbstractPancreatic cancer (PC) is a leading cause of cancer‐related mortality globally. Though increasing evidence has demonstrated that circular RNAs (circRNAs) are linked to the development and progression of cancers, the biological functions of circRNAs in PC remain largely unexplored so far. Based on previous studies, Hsc_circ_0075829 (circ_0075829) was screened out and then further identified in PC clinical specimens and cell lines by real‐time PCR. After the stability tests, a series of in vitro and in vivo functional experiments were performed to investigate the role of circ_0075829 in PC development. Furthermore, fluorescent in situ hybridization (FISH), bioinformatics tools, dual‐luciferase assays and rescue experiments were conducted to clarify the regulatory mechanisms of circ_0075829 in SW1990 and BxPC‐3 cells. Compared with paracancerous tissues, the expression of circ_0075829 was increased in PC tissues, which was positively correlated with the clinical features of PC. Knockdown of circ_0075829 significantly suppressed the proliferative, migratory and invasive rates of SW1990 and BxPC‐3 cells both in vitro and in vivo. Bioinformatics analysis and dual‐luciferase reporter gene assay indicated that circ_0075829 could bind to miR‐1287‐5p. Mechanism research and rescue experiments demonstrated that circ_0075829 could regulate the LAMTOR3/p‐ERK signalling pathway via sponging miR‐1287‐5p in PC cell lines. Our data reveal that the circ_0075829 could facilitate the proliferation and metastasis of PC through circ_0075829/miR‐1287‐5p/LAMTOR3 axis.

AbstractGrowing evidence has highlighted the immune response as an important feature of carcinogenesis and therapeutic efficacy in non‐small cell lung cancer (NSCLC). This study focused on the characterization of immune infiltration profiling in patients with NSCLC and its correlation with survival outcome. All TCGA samples were divided into three heterogeneous clusters based on immune cell profiles: cluster 1 ('low infiltration' cluster), cluster 2 ('heterogeneous infiltration' cluster) and cluster 3 ('high infiltration' cluster). The immune cells were responsible for a significantly favourable prognosis for the 'high infiltration' community. Cluster 1 had the lowest cytotoxic activity, tumour‐infiltrating lymphocytes and interferon‐gamma (IFN‐γ), as well as immune checkpoint molecules expressions. In addition, MHC‐I and immune co‐stimulator were also found to have lower cluster 1 expressions, indicating a possible immune escape mechanism. A total of 43 differentially expressed genes (DEGs) that overlapped among the groups were determined based on three clusters. Finally, based on a univariate Cox regression model, prognostic immune‐related genes were identified and combined to construct a risk score model able to predict overall survival (OS) rates in the validation datasets.

AbstractMapping flood risk zone is an essential task in the arid region for sustainable water resources management. Due to the lack of hydrological and meteorological information and disaster event inventory in Xinjiang, China, storm flood disaster (SFD) risk zoning is an effective technique in investigating the potential impact of SFD. In this study, the statistics about natural, social, and risk related to SFD are collated. With the help of the compiled inventory data, a disaster risk assessment model for storm flood is proposed for the Xinjiang region based on the random forest (RF) algorithm. Randomly selected negative and positive samples from the historical SFD locations are composed of five different total samples. The overall prediction accuracy of the five sample groups attained 83.48%, indicating that the proposed RF model can well capture the spatial distribution of SFD in Xinjiang. It should also be noted that the spatial heterogeneity and complexity of SFD had a significant effect on its spatial distribution in Xinjiang. There are spatial distribution characteristics of lowland plains and high plateaus; the main mountainous regions, plains in the middle‐lower reaches of major rivers, and areas surrounding major lakes are prone to flooding. The variable importance RF indicates that the disaster risk is mainly affected by the following factors, including hazard factors, catastrophic intensity, population density, as well as economic development in the affected area. Besides, latitude, longitude, agricultural acreage, road density, distance from rivers, and the maximum monthly precipitation account for most of the increase in storm flooding disasters, and they are the main triggering point for SFD in Xinjiang. The proposed model provides some insight into the disaster in the mountainous region, and gives useful guidance for the national macro‐control of flood prevention and disaster reduction.
Treatment of primate platynosomosis: A word of caution about the use of praziquantel in marmosets

Published: November 2020

AbstractBackgroundThe successive reports of Platynosomum illiciens in Neotropical captive primates have increased interest in platynosomosis; however, its treatment is little known.MethodsCallithrix penicillata (n = 10) naturally and chronically infected with P. illiciens were treated with praziquantel (25 mg/kg BW, three s.c. doses at 24 hours intervals), and coproparasitological tests performed over 67 days. The proportions of primates with a reduction in fecal egg counts (FEC) or negative results progressively increased after treatment, and at the last fecal tests, marmosets were negative.Results and ConclusionsAlthough all primates tolerated the initial days of study well, 40% (4/10) of them died between the 8th and 16th days after the onset of treatment. Clinical signs and necropsies indicated the occurrence of hepatic involvement, biliary obstruction, and cholangitis. Marmosets with a higher previous FEC were more likely to die after treatment. Use of praziquantel should be considered carefully on a case‐by‐case basis.

Authors: Ballard Ellis , Farrell Allison , Long Michael 
Published: November 2020

ABSTRACTBACKGROUNDFrameworks such as the WSCC model provide evidence‐based guidance for addressing school health at the school, district, and regional level. However, frameworks do not implement themselves; they require the mobilization and collaboration of stakeholders within communities and an understanding of the unique resources and barriers within each context. Furthermore, addressing school health presents a complex systems problem.METHODSCommunity‐based system dynamics (CBSD) is a participatory approach for engaging communities in understanding and changing complex systems. We used a descriptive multiple case study design to evaluate how and why CBSD was used as a tool for stakeholders to engage with the complexity of school health.RESULTSWe analyzed 3 cases to understand how these methods were used to enhance collaboration, analysis, and community action at multiple levels, including in 2 school districts, with a city‐wide stakeholder committee, and with a group of high school students.CONCLUSIONSCommunity‐based system dynamics presents a promising approach for building shared language and ownership among stakeholders, tailoring to local community contexts, and mobilizing stakeholders for action based on new system insights. We close with a discussion of unique opportunities and challenges of expanding the use of CBSD in the field of school health.

Published: November 2020

ABSTRACTBACKGROUNDIn this case study, multiple participants in a large urban school district used the Whole School, Whole Community, Whole Child (WSCC) model to guide development of a district wellness policy. The model's health education component is highlighted, focusing on concerns for special needs students and ones speaking English as a New Language (ENL).METHODSOrganizational structure was developed around the WSCC model and district wellness policy implementation through coordination, collaboration, and communication (3Cs) of programs, policies, and processes/practices (3Ps).RESULTSThe WSCC approach guided the creation of a district wellness policy that influenced programming for students with special needs and required Youth Risk Behavior Survey (YRBS) data collection. Using YRBS and School Health Index (SHI) data in planning sexual health education illustrated improvements over time. Formation of the School Health and Wellness Collaborative under WSCC improved family engagement in sexual health education programs and practices. Relationships were established with community partners to impact student's sexual risk behaviors. Finally, the district co‐created and implemented an evidenced‐based sexual health curriculum, modifying it for special education and ENL students.CONCLUSIONSThe WSCC approach is system changing. It takes time to develop the relationships vital to improve the 3Cs and 3Ps. Success is enhanced with a district wellness coordinator, the right people at the table, valid health data, and administrative and board support.
Advancing Student Health and Achievement Through Medicaid: Lessons Learned from State Efforts to Expand Medicaid‐Funded School Health Services
Authors: Mays Alexandra 
Published: November 2020

ABSTRACTBACKGROUNDSchool health services improve health and academic outcomes; however, sustainable funding for these services is an ongoing struggle. In December 2014, the Centers for Medicare & Medicaid Services clarified how Medicaid will reimburse school health services. School districts, once restricted to reimbursement for services delivered under specific conditions, can now receive Medicaid reimbursement for eligible services delivered to all Medicaid‐enrolled students.METHODSThis article examines the literature exploring school health services' impact on health and academic outcomes and Medicaid's role in funding school health services. The article analyzes state, school‐based Medicaid policies and programs and the impact of the federal policy change.RESULTSAs of August 2020, 13 states have used the federal policy change to expand their school‐based Medicaid programs to include all eligible services delivered to all Medicaid‐enrolled students.CONCLUSIONSThis policy change creates an opportunity for states and school districts to leverage health care funding to implement multiple components of the Whole School, Whole Community, Whole Child model, including health services, counseling, psychological and social services, employee wellness, and school climate. The federal policy change can also improve health equity by increasing reimbursement for school districts serving higher percentages of Medicaid‐enrolled students.
