Abstract

Seasonal physiological plasticity (acclimatisation) facilitates homeostasis in changing environments and has been studied extensively with respect to thermal biology and metabolism. Less is known about seasonal changes in evaporative water loss (EWL) in response to changing water availability and humidity. The wet–dry tropics of northern Australia experiences moderate seasonal temperature changes, but substantial changes in rainfall and humidity. We studied three gecko species (Amalosia rhombifer, Heteronotia binoei and Hemidactylus frenatus) in the wet and dry seasons with respect to their EWL, preferred body temperatures (Tpref), and their choice between a dry and humid refuge at and below Tpref. EWL was significantly lower in the dry season (66% of wet season values). Tpref for two of the species did not change seasonally, but A. rhombifer selected lower Tpref during the warmer wet season. Given a choice of refugia, the humid refuge at low temperatures was never preferred over the warm microhabitat. When both refugia were at preferred temperature, only A. rhombifer showed a significant preference for the humid microhabitat. These results demonstrate that although thermoregulation is prioritised in the short term, hydroregulation (physiological plasticity in EWL) is adjusted in the longer term, with shifts occurring on a seasonal scale. However, previous studies suggest shifts in EWL may occur in response to prevailing weather conditions on an even shorter timescale. Before broad generalisations can be drawn about the phenomenon of EWL plasticity, measurements need to be taken from more species in different climatic regions at ecologically relevant timescales.

Introduction. Primary referral for infectious and inflammatory diseases of the pharynx reaches 30%.Aim. To study the effectiveness of ambazon in patients with acute tonsillopharyngitis.Materials and methods. The study was conducted at the SCDC Clinics of the Samara State Medical University and the CDC “Persona-Med” LLC in 75 patients (45.9 ± 11.2 years old) with acute tonsillopharyngitis (ATP). The main group (Group I, n = 48) additionally received ambazon, 1 tablet for resorption 15 minutes after meals 4 times a day for 4 days. The control group (Group II, n = 27) received symptomatic therapy. On the 1st, 2nd and 4th day, the complaint of sore throat was assessed using a visual analogue scale (VAS), the frequency of additional complaints, and the pharyngoscopic picture using a 4-point scale.Results and discussion. On the 2nd day, the severity of sore throat according to VAS in group I was 3.5 ± 0.2 points, in group II 4.9 ± 0.3 points (p < 0.05). On the 4th day, the severity of sore throat in group I had lower values 1.1 ± 0.1 points, in group II 2.9 ± 0.1 points (p < 0.05). On the 2nd day, complaints of a sensation of a foreign body in the oropharynx and discomfort when swallowing in group I amounted to 27.1% and 45.8%, and in group II 77.8% and 66.7%, respectively. The pharyngoscopic picture in group I was characterized by a decrease in the severity of edema and hyperemia of the pharyngeal mucosa (score of 1.3 ± 0.3 points and 1.1 ± 0.2 points), in group II 2.1 ± 0.3 points and 2.9 ± 0.4 points, respectively. On the 4th day, the pharyngoscopic picture in group I returned to normal, while in group II, hyperemia and edema of the mucosa and an increase in regional lymph nodes persisted.Conclusions. The use of ambazon in the treatment of ATP allows to reduce the severity of the pain symptom, reduce the frequency of additional complaints and normalize the pharyngoscopic picture.

Published: November 2024

Introduction
In Morocco, very little is known about the Psychological Needs (PNs) of students in higher education institutions. Even though there is a growing awareness of how crucial it is to support the psychological well-being of students, research in this area is still quite sparse. This study seeks to bridge this gap by exploring the PNs of students at the Higher Institute of Nursing Professions and Health Techniques in Rabat (ISPITSR).

Materials and Methods
A questionnaire based on the Likert scale was distributed via Google Forms to students from various tracks and majors over a two-week period starting February 15th, 2024. The study included a representative sample of 345 Moroccan students aged 18 to over 30. Statistical analyses were primarily conducted using the Chi-square test to assess associations between sociodemographic variables (such as age, gender, and level of education) and the levels of Psychological Needs (PNs) among students. P-values were calculated to determine the statistical significance of these associations.

Results
The sample comprised mostly women (84.9%) and students under 20 years (73.9%). Key findings revealed that 48.7% of students reported a strong need for mental health support, 32.17% for well-being, and 25.51% for self-esteem. Significant associations were found between PNs and the level of study (p = 0.004), with higher PNs observed in second and third-year students. Mental health emerged as the top priority for 48.7% of students, followed by well-being and self-esteem. Desired resources included access to psychological professionals (15.9%) and financial support.

Conclusion
This study contributes to a better understanding of the PNs of students in Morocco, offering insights that could be used to improve their well-being and the quality of their educational experience.
Comparing the Quality of Direct-to-Consumer Telemedicine Dominated and Delivered by Public and Private Sector Platforms in China: Standardized Patient Study
Authors: Song Faying , Gong Xue , Yang Yuting , Guo Rui 
Published: November 2024

Background
Telemedicine is expanding rapidly, with public direct-to-consumer (DTC) telemedicine representing 70% of the market. A key priority is establishing clear quality distinctions between the public and private sectors. No studies have directly compared the quality of DTC telemedicine in the public and private sectors using objective evaluation methods.

Objective
Using a standardized patient (SP) approach, this study aimed to compare the quality of DTC telemedicine provided by China’s public and private sectors.

Methods
We recruited 10 SPs presenting fixed cases (urticaria and childhood diarrhea), with 594 interactions between them and physicians. The SPs evaluated various aspects of the quality of care, effectiveness, safety, patient-centeredness (PCC), efficiency, and timeliness using the Institute of Medicine (IOM) quality framework. Ordinary least-squares (OLS) regression models with fixed effects were used for continuous variables, while logistic regression models with fixed effects were used for categorical variables.

Results
Significant quality differences were observed between public and private DTC telemedicine. Physicians from private platforms were significantly more likely to adhere to clinical checklists (adjusted β 15.22, P<.001); provide an accurate diagnosis (adjusted odds ratio [OR] 3.85, P<.001), an appropriate prescription (adjusted OR 3.87, P<.001), and lifestyle modification advice (adjusted OR 6.82, P<.001); ensure more PCC (adjusted β 3.34, P<.001); and spend more time with SPs (adjusted β 839.70, P<.001), with more responses (adjusted β 1.33, P=.001) and more words (adjusted β 50.93, P=.009). However, SPs on private platforms waited longer for the first response (adjusted β 505.87, P=.001) and each response (adjusted β 168.33, P=.04) and paid more for the average visit (adjusted β 40.03, P<.001).

Conclusions
There is significant quality inequality in different DTC telemedicine platforms. Private physicians might provide a higher quality of service regarding effectiveness and safety, PCC, and response times and words. However, private platforms have longer wait times for their first response, as well as higher costs. Refining online reviews, establishing standardized norms and pricing, enhancing the performance evaluation mechanism for public DTC telemedicine, and imposing stricter limitations on the first response time for private physicians should be considered practical approaches to optimizing the management of DTC telemedicine.
Appropriately Matching Transport Care Units to Patients in Interhospital Transport Care: Implementation Study
Authors: Hasavari Shirin , Esmaeilzadeh Pouyan 
Published: November 2024

Background
In interfacility transport care, a critical challenge exists in accurately matching ambulance response levels to patients’ needs, often hindered by limited access to essential patient data at the time of transport requests. Existing systems cannot integrate patient data from sending hospitals’ electronic health records (EHRs) into the transfer request process, primarily due to privacy concerns, interoperability challenges, and the sensitive nature of EHR data. We introduce a distributed digital health platform, Interfacility Transport Care (ITC)–InfoChain, designed to solve this problem without compromising EHR security or data privacy.

Objective
This study aimed to detail the implementation of ITC-InfoChain, a secure, blockchain-based platform designed to enhance real-time data sharing without compromising data privacy or EHR security.

Methods
The ITC-InfoChain platform prototype was implemented on Amazon Web Services cloud infrastructure, using Hyperledger Fabric as a permissioned blockchain. Key elements included participant registration, identity management, and patient data collection isolated from the sending hospital’s EHR system. The client program submits encrypted patient data to a distributed ledger, accessible to the receiving facility’s critical care unit at the time of transport request and emergency medical services (EMS) teams during transport through the PatienTrack web app. Performance was evaluated through key performance indicators such as data transaction times and scalability across transaction loads.

Results
The ITC-InfoChain demonstrated strong performance and scalability. Data transaction times averaged 3.1 seconds for smaller volumes (1-20 transactions) and 6.4 seconds for 100 transactions. Optimized configurations improved processing times to 1.8-1.9 seconds for 400 transactions. These results confirm the platform’s capacity to handle high transaction volumes, supporting timely, real-time data access for decision-making during transport requests and patient transfers.

Conclusions
The ITC-InfoChain platform addresses the challenge of matching appropriate transport units to patient needs by ensuring data privacy, integrity, and real-time data sharing, enhancing the coordination of patient care. The platform’s success suggests potential for regional pilots and broader adoption in secure health care systems. Stakeholder resistance due to blockchain unfamiliarity and data privacy concerns remains. Funding has been sought to support a pilot program to address these challenges through targeted education and engagement.

Published: November 2024

ABSTRACT
This case simulates analyses students are likely to conduct early in their careers. The case includes scenarios for two different hypothetical clients and reinforces the theory of revenue and expense recognition while requiring students to utilize Excel for analytics. The case is geared toward upper-level undergraduate accounting students, in which they will analyze transaction data containing misapplications of GAAP, reconcile general ledger account balances, and recommend adjusting journal entries while building Microsoft Excel skills. Work relating to the first client serves as refresher, both in using Excel and to fundamental financial accounting principles. The requirements for the second client build on those skills and offer more advanced conceptual challenges, require students to reference the Accounting Standards Codification, and use more complex Excel functions. Key Excel functionality covered in this practical application includes DATE (YEAR, MONTH, DAY), IF, IFS, ISNUMBER, SEARCH, ROUND, SUM, SUMIF, SUMIFS, and VLOOKUP.

Cuidados y acción colectiva entre repartidoras de plataformas digitales
Authors: Rosales Ma. Susana , Marega Magali 
Published: November 2024

Desde una perspectiva antropológica y de género, en este artículo analizamos las prácticas de cuidado de las trabajadoras de reparto por plataformas de un colectivo de la Ciudad de México, y la forma en que concilian los cuidados productivos y reproductivos con su participación en la acción colectiva. Buscamos dar cuenta de cómo se construyen las prácticas de cuidados y la importancia de éstos en la dinámica organizativa. Argumentamos que los cuidados se configuran como elemento central de la acción colectiva, especialmente aquellos vinculados al cuidado de sí, de sus compañeras y compañeros, cuidados del cuerpo y las herramientas; en detrimento de las tareas domésticas de cuidado que son individualizadas y consideradas como asunto privado, de las cual cada repartidora debe responsabilizarse.
Dictadura y sentidos de la filiación entre hijos de perpetradores que defienden a sus familiares
Authors: Goldentul Analía 
Published: November 2024

Este artículo analiza los sentidos de la filiación en Hijos y Nietos de Presos Políticos: una agrupación argentina conformada por descendientes de perpetradores que defienden a sus familiares juzgados por crímenes de lesa humanidad. Si bien desde los años de la transición democrática los vínculos familiares se convirtieron en un vector de legitimidad para intervenir en el espacio público, para los hijos e hijas de perpetradores el parentesco no es un elemento que garantice per se adhesión a sus reclamos. Antes que ser un privilegio, tener un lazo de sangre con personas detenidas por delitos de lesa humanidad puede ser motivo de rechazo o de impugnación social. Sobre la base de esta consideración, se atienden los discursos, los sentidos y valores a través de los cuales estos activistas buscaron hacer de su condición de “hijos/as” un capital para intervenir en el espacio público.
