IntroductionThis study aimed to explore mental health literacy (MHL) and its related factors in a cross-sectional, registry-based sample of patients after acute myocardial infarction (AMI).MethodsAll survivors of AMI between 2017 and 2019 from the Myocardial Infarction Registry Augsburg (n=1.712) received a postal questionnaire on MHL (Mental Health Literacy Scale (MHLS-GER)) and single questions on experiences with and information on mental disorders in 2023. The response rate was 49.9%. Logistic and linear regression models were used to investigate the associations between these variables and sociodemographic factors.ResultsIn the sample of 855 patients (77.5% male, mean age 71.4 ± 10.9 years), 30.0% had experienced mental problems about 5 years after AMI. Among these, 17.4% received psychotherapy and 26.1% psychotropic drugs. Information about possible mental problems after their AMI was obtained from a physician by 30.8% of the patients and in a rehabilitation setting by 46.4%, respectively. Of the patients, 26.2% wished to receive more information on mental problems after AMI. MHLS-GER subscale scores ranged between and 54 (“Social distance”) and 76 (“Information seeking”) (best score 100). Age was the most important factor that was significantly associated with the report of mental health problems, a perceived lack of information, help seeking behavior and treatment, and MHL.DiscussionElderly and poorly educated patients were at risk of poor MHL. Further studies are required to specify the role of MHL in post-AMI life and health care.

BackgroundSelf-disorders constitute a core feature of the schizophrenia spectrum, including early stages such as first-episode psychosis (FEP). These disorders impact the minimal Self, or bodily self-consciousness, which refers to the basic, pre-reflective sense of embodied experience. The minimal Self is intrinsically linked to episodic memory, which captures specific past experiences of the Self. However, research on this relationship in the schizophrenia spectrum remains scarce. This pilot study aimed to investigate how the minimal Self modulated episodic memory of naturalistic events in FEP, using immersive virtual reality. A secondary objective was to examine the relationships between sense of Self, embodiment, episodic memory, schizotypal personality traits in healthy participants (CTL), and psychopathology in FEP.MethodsA full-body illusion was induced in 10 FEP and 35 matched CTL, using a first-person avatar, with synchronous or asynchronous visuomotor stimulation (strong or weak embodiment conditions, respectively). Following embodiment induction, participants navigated a virtual city and encountered naturalistic daily life events, which were incidentally encoded. Episodic memory of these events was assessed through a comprehensive recognition task (factual and contextual information, retrieval phenomenology). Sense of Self, schizotypal personality traits, and psychopathology were assessed via self-reported questionnaires or clinical assessments.ResultsSynchronous visuomotor stimulation successfully induced a stronger sense of embodiment in both FEP and CTL. The strong embodiment condition was associated with reduced perceived virtual space occupation by the body in FEP. Under strong embodiment, FEP performed significantly worse than CTL in contextual information recognition, but their ratings for retrieval phenomenology were comparable to CTL. Conversely, under weak embodiment, FEP performed similarly to CTL in contextual information recognition, but they rated retrieval phenomenology significantly lower. For CTL, we observed a slight, though non-significant, enhancement in recognition memory under strong compared to weak embodiment. Additionally, higher schizotypy in CTL correlated with a diminished sense of Self and poorer episodic memory.ConclusionsDisturbances in the minimal Self in FEP are associated with episodic memory impairments. These findings emphasise the importance of targeting minimal Self-disorders in schizophrenia spectrum disorders, since episodic memory impairments may negatively affect patients’ quality of life and psychosocial outcomes. Additionally, they support a fully dimensional model of schizotypy.

Published: November 2024

PurposeThis study aimed to explore the relationships among characteristics of emerging adulthood, self-efficacy, and physical activity behaviors, and how these factors collectively influence the life satisfaction of college students. By delving into the interconnections between these elements, insights for relevant interventions and policy formulation can be provided.MethodsIn this cross-sectional study conducted from November to December 2022, a total of 3,387 Chinese college students were surveyed via the Maike electronic questionnaire platform. The Inventory of the Dimensions of Emerging Adulthood (IDEA), General Self-Efficacy Scale (GSE-8), Physical Activity Rating Scale (PARS-3), and a single-item life satisfaction question were utilized for assessments. Data analysis was performed using the Bollen–Stine bootstrap method, with the aid of Amos software (version 26.0) and IBM SPSS (version 26.0).ResultsInstability, possibility, and self-exploration were significantly associated with self-efficacy, which in turn influenced life satisfaction. Factors such as possibility and instability were related to physical activity behaviors, further predicting life satisfaction. Characteristics of emerging adulthood indirectly affected life satisfaction through self-efficacy and physical activity behaviors.ConclusionCharacteristics of emerging adulthood enhance life satisfaction by bolstering self-efficacy and promoting physical activity behaviors.

PurposeTo comprehensively understand the spiritual care competencies of orthopedic nurses and analyze the factors that affect them.MethodsThis study employed convenience sampling to conduct a cross-sectional survey among orthopedic nurses at Hefei First People's Hospital. Data was collected utilizing a general information questionnaire, alongside the Chinese versions of the Spiritual Care Competence Scale, the Spiritual Care Perspective Scale, the Professional Identity Assessment Scale, and the Hospital Ethical Climate Scale. Guided by the Person-Environment Fit theory and the Triadic Reciprocal Determinism theory, a structural equation model was utilized to analyze the influencing factors and pathways related to the spiritual care competence of orthopedic nurses.ResultsA total of 112 valid questionnaires were obtained, yielding an overall score of 68.92 ± 11.03 for orthopedic nurses' spiritual care competencies, with an average score of 3.14 ± 0.50 per item. The results of the Pearson correlation analysis revealed a significant positive correlation (all P &lt; 0.01) between spiritual care competence and the scores for spiritual care perspective, professional identity assessment, and hospital ethical climate. The spiritual care perspective, professional identity, and hospital ethical climate emerged as the influencing factors of orthopedic nurses' spiritual care competence, exhibiting total effects of 0.30, 0.53, and 0.85, respectively. Notably, the hospital ethical climate exerts an indirect influence on spiritual care competence through the mediation of spiritual care perspective and professional identity, with the indirect effect accounting for 61.18% of the total effect.ConclusionThere remains significant potential for enhancing the spiritual care competencies of orthopedic nurses. The hospital's ethical climate not only has a direct and positive impact on spiritual care competence but also indirectly influences it through the lens of nurses' spiritual care perspectives and professional identity assessments. Hospital administrators may wish to consider strategies for bolstering the hospital's ethical climate, fostering a deeper spiritual care perspective and heightened professional identity among nurses, and ultimately improving their spiritual care competence.

ObjectiveMammography screening guidelines in the United States highlight the importance of informing and involving women when making their breast cancer screening decisions. However, the complexity of interpreting and applying these population-level guidelines can contribute to patient burden. Patient-centered communication strategies can alleviate patient burden, but few consider perspectives from racially and ethnically marginalized populations. We examine diverse women’s perspectives on screening to characterize patient-centered experiences.MethodsWe conducted 28 focus groups with 134 non-Latina Black (n = 51), non-Latina White (n = 39), and Latina (n = 44) participants. We coded participants’ discussion of their screening influences. We used deductive and inductive qualitative methods to identify common themes.ResultsWe identified three themes: (1) personal relationships with primary care providers, (2) potential impacts of cancer on families, and (3) interactions with medical systems. Most White participants described trusting physician relationships in contrast to perfunctory, surface-level relationships experienced by many Black participants; high costs of care prevented many Latina participants from accessing care (Theme 1). Diagnosis was a concern for most Black participants as it could burden family and most Latina participants as it could prevent them from maintaining family well-being (Theme 2). While many White participants had general ease in accessing and navigating healthcare, Latina participants were often held back by embarrassment—and Black participants frequently described disrespectful providers, false negatives, and unnecessary pain (Theme 3).ConclusionCultural and structural factors appeared to influence participants’ approaches to breast cancer screening. Structural barriers may counteract culturally salient beliefs, especially among Black and Latina participants. We suggest patient-centered communication interventions be culturally adjusted and paired with structural changes (e.g., policy, insurance coverage, material resources) to reflect women’s nuanced values and intersectional social contexts.

IntroductionSoil health is vital for ecosystems, but excessive use of fertilizers, chemicals, and irrigation harms soil fertility, leading to reduced yields and degradation. Thus, exploring innovative land arrangements and nutrient management for staple crops such as wheat is essential. Organic farming offers a promising solution. This study hypothesized that an appropriate land arrangement, combined with split applications of farmyard manure (FYM) and liquid organic fertilizer, can enhance wheat productivity while also improving soil health. The objective of this study was to investigate the effects of different sowing methods and organic nutrient management practices on the productivity of wheat and soil health.MethodsThis study aimed to examine the impact of sowing methods and nutrient management practices on soil health and organic wheat productivity during the winter seasons of 2021–22 and 2022–23 at the Organic Farming Unit (Agronomy), Rajasthan College of Agriculture, MPUAT, Udaipur. The experiment was arranged in a split-plot design, with three land arrangements/sowing methods in the main plot and eight nutrient management approaches in the subplots.ResultsConcerning different land arrangements, the furrow irrigated raised bed sowing (FIRB) method resulted in the maximum wheat yield (4.34 t ha−1) compared with flat row sowing and zero tillage sowing. With respect to nutrient management practices, 75% of the recommended dose of N (RDN) through the FYM was basal + 25% RDN with the 1st irrigation + Jeevamrut application at 500 L ha−1 during sowing, and the 1st irrigation + Panchagavya spraying at 5% during the booting stage resulted in the highest grain yield (4.47 t ha−1). Both the zero tillage and FIRB land arrangements resulted in better soil biological activities and microbial counts than did flat sowing. The results indicate that sowing wheat via the FIRB method, with the recommended nitrogen dose applied through split applications of FYM along with liquid organic manures such as Jeevamrut and Panchagavya, can be an excellent option for organic wheat cultivation. This approach can enhance both yield and soil health.ConclusionSeventy-five percent RDN through FYM as a basal + 25% RDN during the 1st irrigation + Jeevamrut at 500 L ha−1 during sowing and the 1st irrigation + spraying of Panchagavya at 5% during the booting stage effectively increased the growth and yield of organic wheat. With respect to land arrangements, both FIRB and zero tillage resulted in better growth, yield, and soil biological properties. The practical utility of this study is the optimization of split applications of FYM and land arrangements for organic wheat cultivation.

IntroductionThe grain supply-demand balance is a long-standing concern for many countries and is essential to guaranteeing social stability, maintaining economic development and ensuring national grain security.MethodsBased on the data of 65 countries along the “Belt and Road” (B&amp;R) from 1993 to 2021, this paper analyzed the spatiotemporal evolution, the matching relationship, regional grain security situation and driving factors of grain supply-demand by measuring and classifying the grain self-sufficiency rate using methods such as geostatistical analysis and the GTWR model.ResultsThe results indicated the following: (1) The B&amp;R region was still at the primary stage of “food-based and feed-supplemented”. Grain supply and demand in the B&amp;R region showed a steady upward trend, with grain yield contributing more to grain supply than sown area. (2) Overall, the B&amp;R region has been largely self-sufficient since 2007, with grain supply meeting demand, but the level of grain self-sufficiency varied considerably between countries. (3) More than 58% of the countries were in grain insecurity, concentrated in West Asia-Middle East and South-East Asia. The gravity center of both grain supply and demand was near East Asia. (4) In terms of matching supply-demand, most countries fell into the category of high supply-high demand and low supply-low demand, with basically the same level of grain supply and demand. (5) Grain yield had the largest positive impact on grain supply-demand, GDP had the largest negative impact, and temperature change and precipitation change had a relatively small effect. The effects of fertilizer use, grain yield, and GDP on grain supply-demand fluctuated greatly over time.DiscussionThese findings can provide a scientific basis for the country to formulate policies for a sustainable grain supply-demand system.

ObjectivesTo report the surgical outcomes of treating patellar luxation (PL) in dogs with surgical planning based on three-dimensional (3D) automated measurement of femoral angles.Study designMulticenter retrospective study.MethodsForty-one dogs with PL underwent preoperative computed tomography (CT). Three-dimensional femur models were exported as stereolithographic files, and imported into computer-aided design (CAD) software where 3D measurements were performed. The anatomical laterodistal femoral (aLDFA), femoral neck (FNA), and femoral torsion (FTA) angles were recorded. Surgical records, complications, radiographic femoral postoperative alignment, preoperative and postoperative lameness evaluation, and patellar position were reviewed. The success of the surgical outcome was based on the presence of normal patellar tracking at the last clinical recheck.ResultsForty-seven limbs were included; 46% of the cases (22/47) were affected by grade 3 PL. Mean (±SD) 3D aLDFA, FNA, and FTA measurements were 101.4° (±3.6), 132.5° (±2.6), and 17.6° (±4.3) in dogs with medial patellar luxation (MPL) and 89.3° (±7.6), 134.8° (±2.9), 36.9° (±5.3) with lateral patellar luxation (LPL), respectively. Based on the 3D preoperative planning, corrective osteotomies were performed in 34 of 47 cases. The mean radiographic follow-up was 4.7 months. At the final follow-up, PL was successfully treated in 45 of 47 cases. Patella reluxated in five cases. In three of five cases, the 3D automated plan was not followed by the surgeon.DiscussionSurgical treatment of PL based on 3D femoral measurements successfully corrected PL in 45 of 47 cases (96%). This is the first study reporting the use of 3D automated femoral angle measurement in clinical cases affected by PL.

IntroductionAt present, the NADC30-like strain has become the prevalent strain of PRRSV in China. Many studies have found that existing commercial vaccines are ineffective or provide only limited protection. No study has investigated the cross-protection of different dosages of commercial MLV vaccines against NADC30-like PRRSV. Therefore, this study assessed the effectiveness of various dosages against a NADC30-like PRRSV infection using commercial PRRSV vaccines, Ingelvac PRRS MLV, which have been widely utilized in China.MethodsIn this study, we immunized piglets with four different dosages of the MLV vaccine and infected piglets within a nasal way with NADC30-like CF PRRSV at 28 days post-vaccination. We observed the status of pigs before and after the challenge of NADC30-like PRRSV CF strain and reflected the protective effect of different dosages of MLV vaccine through multiple assays.ResultsCompared to those piglets immunized with 1 dosage, the piglets immunized with 0.01 dosage had better performance, such as the highest average daily gain before the challenge, lesser lesions and viremia after the challenge, low clinical score, and stable temperature during the study. However, the piglets immunized with 0.01 dosage still showed viremia, viruses were detected in their lungs, tonsils, and inguinal lymph nodes, and pathological lesions occurred in their lung. Immunohistochemistry staining of the lung of vaccinated piglets revealed a similar viral load to that of unvaccinated piglets, suggesting that immunization could not completely remove the virus from the vaccinated piglets’ tissues.DiscussionOur research suggests that the MLV vaccine could provide limited protection against the NADC30-like PRRSV infection, and lowering the dosage to 0.01 may produce better protective efficacy. In the context of identifying the immunological target, comprehending the virulence of the virus in the field, and guaranteeing safety, we might be able to reevaluate vaccination dosages to achieve higher economic value.

Normothermic machine perfusion (NMP) is a clinical strategy to reduce renal ischemia-reperfusion injury (IRI). Optimal NMP should restore metabolism and minimize IRI induced inflammatory responses. Microdialysis was used to evaluate renal metabolism. This study aimed to assess the effect of complement inhibition on NMP induced inflammatory responses. Twenty-two pig kidneys underwent 18 h of static cold storage (SCS) followed by 4 h of NMP using a closed-circuit system. Kidneys were randomized to receive a C5-inhibitor or placebo during SCS and NMP. Perfusion resulted in rapidly stabilized renal flow, low renal resistance, and urine production. During SCS, tissue microdialysate levels of glucose and pyruvate decreased significantly, whereas glycerol increased (p &lt; 0.001). In the first hour of NMP, glucose and pyruvate increased while glycerol decreased (p &lt; 0.001). After 4 h, all metabolites had returned to baseline. Inflammatory markers C3a, soluble C5b-9, TNF, IL-6, IL-1β, IL-8, and IL-10 increased significantly during NMP in perfusate and kidney tissue. C5-inhibition significantly decreased perfusate and urine soluble C5b-9 (p &lt; 0.001; p = 0.002, respectively), and tissue IL-1β (p = 0.049), but did not alter other inflammatory markers. Microdialysis can accurately monitor the effect of NMP on renal metabolism. Closed-circuit NMP induces inflammation, which appeared partly complement-mediated. Targeting additional immune inhibitors should be the next step.
