Published: March 2019

AbstractNon‐consumer researchers collaborating with consumer researchers can benefit from greater relevance of research and improved congruence between research processes and health policy. As with all research collaborations, such partnerships are both constrained and facilitated by research ecosystems. However, it seems that collaborations with consumer researchers are impacted in particular ways by the research ecosystem. Drawing on ecological systems theory, this study aims to improve understandings of how ecological structures impact collaborations between non‐consumer and consumer researchers. Interviews were conducted with 11 non‐consumer researchers from a range of mental health disciplines about their experiences collaborating with consumer researchers. One theme developed through analysis of the data set related to the research ecosystem. Data from this theme were extracted and discursively analysed using the principles of discursive psychology. Findings emphasize distinct factors that influence collaborations at each level of the ecosystem, encompassing both local research culture and broader research systems. Findings suggest that external pressures (such as deadlines for funding applications, or bureaucratic processes) from the broader ecosystemic levels need to be challenged at the local collaboration level. Non‐consumer researchers might support collaborations through, for instance, working to create enhanced flexibility in research timelines, or making time for relationship building, thus fostering more meaningful collaborations.
Assessing psychosocial profile in the physical therapy setting
Authors: Van Wyngaarden Joshua J. , Noehren Brian , Archer Kristin R. 
Published: March 2019

AbstractPurposePhysical therapists play a crucial role in managing persistent pain and disability. Since psychosocial factors are important predictors of poor patient outcomes, it is essential that clinicians understand how to utilize validated instruments to assess psychosocial profile in the clinical setting. The following article reviews the psychometric properties and clinical application of the Keele Subgroups for Targeted Treatment Back Screening Tool (SBT), Optimal Screening for Prediction of Referral and Outcome Yellow Flag (OSPRO‐YF), Pain Catastrophizing Scale (PCS), Tampa Scale of Kinesiophobia (TSK), Pain Self‐Efficacy Questionnaire (PSEQ), and Patient Health Questionnaire (PHQ).ResultsMultidimensional screening tools, such as the SBT and OSPRO‐YF, are useful prognostic indicators of long‐term disability and the presence of yellow flags that may be contributing to patient presentation, respectively. This can guide both the treatment and administration of specific, unidimensional psychosocial assessment tools. The following cutoffs are identified as moderate elevation of psychosocial profile which can be used to inform clinical practice: PCS ≥20, TSK >37, PSEQ ≥40, and PHQ‐9 ≥10.ConclusionValid and reliable unidimensional and multidimensional psychosocial assessment tools provide important prognostic information to inform a patient's psychosocial profile and subsequently improve clinical efficiency and patient outcomes.
Temperature‐induced developmental plasticity in Plodia interpunctella: Reproductive behaviour and sperm length

Published: March 2019

AbstractIn both plants and animals, male gametogenesis is particularly sensitive to heat stress, to the extent that a single hot or cold day can compromise crop productivity or population persistence. In animals, heat stress during development can impact a male's ability to secure copulations and/or his post‐copulatory fertility. Despite such observations, relatively few studies have examined the consequences of developmental temperature on the reproductive behaviour and physiology of individuals. Here, we report for the first time the effects of developmental temperature on the phenotypic expression of both apyrene and eupyrene sperm and the copulatory behaviour of the Indian meal moth, Plodia interpunctella. We show that the length of both apyrene and eupyrene sperm decreases with increasing developmental temperature and that males are less likely to engage in copulation when reared at the highest and lowest temperatures. Where copulation occurred, the duration of copula decreased as male developmental temperature increased. We argue that identification of the mechanisms and consequences of reproductive failure in animals facing heat stress will help understand how wild and domesticated populations will respond to global climate change. We also contend that such studies will help elucidate long‐standing evolutionary questions around the maintenance of genetic variation in traits highly relevant to fitness and the role of phenotypic plasticity in driving the evolution of novel traits.
DO INVESTORS CARE ABOUT PRESIDENTIAL COMPANY‐SPECIFIC TWEETS?
Authors: Ge Qi , Kurov Alexander , Wolfe Marketa Halova 
Published: March 2019

AbstractWhen the president of the United States tweets, do investors respond? We analyze the impact of tweets from President Donald J. Trump's official Twitter accounts from November 9, 2016 to December 31, 2017 that include names of publicly traded companies. We find that these tweets move company stock prices and increase trading volume, volatility, and institutional investor attention, with a stronger impact before the presidential inauguration. There is some evidence that the initial impact of the presidential tweets on stock prices is reversed in the next few trading days.

Published: March 2019

AbstractAimThe aim of this study was to evaluate if thong use is associated with a higher report of urogenital infections, including urinary tract infections, yeast vaginitis and bacterial vaginosis.MethodsA cross‐sectional survey regarding underwear preferences and infectious history was designed and distributed to women via a crowdsourcing service. All survey questions related to the last 12 months. Parametric and nonparametric statistical methods were used to compare responses between thong wearers and nonthong wearers. Thong wearers were defined as women who wore a thong equal to or more than 50 % of the time.ResultsNine hundred and eighty‐six respondents met inclusion criteria and completed the survey; 186 (18.9%) were defined as thong wearers and 800 (81.1%) were defined as nonthong wearers in the last 12 months. Reported rates of urogenital infections in the last 12 months were not significantly different for thong wearers versus nonthong wearers. Thong use was not an independent predictor of any urogenital infection in this study.ConclusionIn this large cross‐sectional study we found that oral sex was the only independent predictor of urinary tract infection and bacterial vaginosis, and that wearing noncotton crotch underwear was associated with yeast vaginitis. Wearing thong underwear was not associated with any urogenital infections. Medical providers should discuss sexual practices and underwear fabric, rather than style, with their patients when there is concern for urogenital infection.

Published: March 2019

AbstractAimA growing body of evidence has suggested a significant impact of mode of delivery on female sexual function. In the present study, we aimed to investigate the effect of mode of delivery on postpartum sexual function.MethodsWe conducted a cross‐sectional study on 684 women during their first year after their first delivery. The sexual function of the included women was assessed using the Arabic version of the Female Sexual Function Index (FSFI). Data analysis was carried out using SPSS version 22 for Microsoft Windows.ResultsThe present study included 684 primiparous women, in which 320 women had a history of vaginal delivery (VD0 and 364 women had a history of Cesarean section (CS). In terms of FSFI items, women with a history of CS had statistically significant higher FSFI total score than women with VD (31.34 ± 3.8 vs 30.23 ± 3.6, respectively; P < 0.001). Moreover, patients with more than 6 months since birth had a statistically significant higher total FSFI score than patients with less than 6 months since birth (30.97 ± 3.5 vs 29.97 ± 3.5, respectively; P < 0.001). However, the difference was clinically subtle. In addition, women who breastfed their babies had statistically significant lower total FSFI score than women who used artificial methods of lactation (29.61 ± 4.2 vs 30.27 ± 3.3, respectively; P < 0.001).ConclusionIn conclusion, the present study showed that the mode of delivery was not clinically associated with clinical impairment in sexual function within 1 year after delivery, despite the statistically significant difference. It is recommended that the decision to perform CS should not rely on the fear of the risk of postpartum sexual dysfunction.
Regulation and altruism
Authors: Jelovac Izabela , Kembou Nzale Samuel 
Published: March 2019

AbstractWe study optimal contracts in a regulator–agent setting with joint production, altruistic and selfish agents, limited liability, and uneasy outcome measurement. Such a setting represents sectors of activities such as education and healthcare provision. The agents and the regulator jointly produce an outcome for which they all care to some extent that is varying from agent to agent. Some agents, the altruistic ones, care more than the regulator does while others, the selfish agents, care less. Moral hazard is present due to both the agent's effort and the joint outcome that are not contractible. Adverse selection is present too since the regulator cannot a priori distinguish between altruistic and selfish agents. Contracts consist of a simple transfer from the regulator to the agents together with the regulator's input in the joint production. We show that, under the conditions of our setting and when we face both moral hazard and adverse selection, the regulator maximizes welfare with a menu of contracts, which specify higher transfers for the altruistic agents and higher regulator's inputs for the selfish agents.
Research directions in medical English as a lingua franca (MELF)
Authors: Tweedie M. Gregory , Johnson Robert C. 
Published: March 2019

AbstractThis article asserts that medical English as a lingua franca (MELF) represents an important direction for future research in ELF. The flow of health care workers across international borders and the role of English as the dominant language of international communication and medicine position MELF interactions as increasingly common in medical contexts worldwide. Research is called for with respect to the relationship of MELF to ELF, and specifically whether ELF linguistic features and pragmatic strategies are incorporated in medical contexts, where communicative immediacy and precision figure centrally. Since criticisms of ELF research include its relatively narrow contexts for study (to date mostly European and on a lesser scale East Asian) and its limited domains (higher education and business), MELF presents an opportunity to expand the research scope of ELF considerably. While suggesting that migrant destinations like the states of the Gulf Cooperation Council represent especially relevant sites for researching MELF, the article argues that a definition of ELF that includes native speaker interactions allows for the possibility of MELF research where English is considered a dominant native language. Concerns over the effect of miscommunication on patient safety are well researched in health care disciplines, and so a fuller understanding of MELF may assist in the delivery of safe and effective patient care within the linguistic complexity characterizing health care.

Published: March 2019

ObjectiveThis study analyzed the reasons for avoiding visiting a doctor among women aged ≥50 years with urinary incontinence (UI), as well as factors influencing visits to the doctor.MethodsIn all, 402 women aged ≥50 years who were enrolled in Bursa healthcare centers, 150 with UI and 252 without UI, participated in the study. This study was conducted between January 2018 and August 2018. Participants were asked to complete the International Consultation on Incontinence Questionnaire – Short Form (ICIQ‐SF) questionnaire. Quality of life was evaluated using the Incontinence Impact Questionnaire, Short Form (IIQ‐7) questionnaire.ResultsThe prevalence of UI was 37%. Of the women with UI, 52 (34.67%) visited a doctor for complaints. The most frequent reason for seeing a doctor because of UI was that it had started to affect activities of daily living. The most frequent reason for avoiding visiting a doctor was the belief that UI was normal. Scores on the ICIQ‐SF were higher among women who visited a doctor. Physical activity, social relationships, and mental health scores on the IIQ‐7 were also higher among patients who visited a doctor.ConclusionsPatients who suffer from severe UI and whose quality of life is affected more negatively are more likely to visit a doctor. Women who believe that UI is normal are less likely to visit a doctor. Awareness about UI should be increased in order to increase the rate of visiting a doctor for this condition.
New insights into the heterogeneity of the Tagish Lake meteorite: Soluble organic compositions of variously altered specimens

Published: March 2019

AbstractThe Tagish Lake carbonaceous chondrite exhibits a unique compositional heterogeneity that may be attributed to varying degrees of aqueous alteration within the parent body asteroid. Previous analyses of soluble organic compounds from four Tagish Lake meteorite specimens (TL5b, TL11h, TL11i, TL11v) identified distinct distributions and isotopic compositions that appeared to be linked to their degree of parent body processing (Herd et al. 2011; Glavin et al. 2012; Hilts et al. 2014). In the present study, we build upon these initial observations and evaluate the molecular distribution of amino acids, aldehydes and ketones, monocarboxylic acids, and aliphatic and aromatic hydrocarbons, including compound‐specific δ13C compositions, for three additional Tagish Lake specimens: TL1, TL4, and TL10a. TL1 contains relatively high abundances of soluble organics and appears to be a moderately altered specimen, similar to the previously analyzed TL5b and TL11h lithologies. In contrast, specimens TL4 and TL10a both contain relatively low abundances of all of the soluble organic compound classes measured, similar to TL11i and TL11v. The organic‐depleted composition of TL4 appears to have resulted from a relatively low degree of parent body aqueous alteration. In the case of TL10a, some unusual properties (e.g., the lack of detection of intrinsic monocarboxylic acids and aliphatic and aromatic hydrocarbons) suggest that it has experienced extensive alteration and/or a distinct organic‐depleted alteration history. Collectively, these varying compositions provide valuable new insights into the relationships between asteroidal aqueous alteration and the synthesis and preservation of soluble organic compounds.
Synchronic and Diachronic Harmony: St. Irenaeus on Divine Simplicity
Authors: Behr John 
Published: March 2019

AbstractJohn Behr probes the teaching of Irenaeus on divine simplicity. Behr cautions against viewing divine simplicity as a philosophical or theological element that Irenaeus settles prior to his engagement with the scriptural economy of salvation. He warns that to understand Irenaeus’ approach in this way would separate “theology” and “economy” in a manner that supposes that the former does not arise fundamentally from the latter. Behr sets forth briefly the metaphysical principles upheld by the doctrine of divine simplicity. The question that Behr raises, in light of Irenaeus’ approach, is whether divine simplicity merely comes from human speculation, absent the need for biblical revelation; or whether the doctrine is a grammatical rule; or (his Irenaean solution) whether in fact divine simplicity is inseparable from the way that God has revealed himself. Behr argues that the last‐named answer is the only one that could befit Irenaeus. In this light, Behr sets forth the careful exposition of Irenaeus’ doctrine of divine simplicity that has been provided by the patristics scholar Eric Osborn. While Behr is not oblivious to the erudition of Osborn’s account, Behr points out that unlike Osborn, Irenaeus never offers a distinct “refined theism” before proceeding to scriptural revelation. Thus, Behr argues that to understand Irenaeus on divine simplicity will require refusing to impose our categories of thought upon him, and instead carefully tracing the way in which Irenaeus reads Scripture.

Summary

Endosperm, the major storage organ in cereal grains, determines grain yield and quality. Despite the fact that a role for P‐type pentatricopeptide repeat (PPR) proteins in the regulation of endosperm development has emerged, molecular functions of many P‐type PPR proteins remain obscure.

Here, we report a rice endosperm defective mutant, floury endosperm10 (flo10), which developed smaller starch grains in starchy endosperm and abnormal cells in the aleurone layer. Map‐based cloning and rescued experiments showed that FLO10 encodes a P‐type PPR protein with 26 PPR motifs, which is localized to mitochondria. Loss of function of FLO10 affected the trans‐splicing of the mitochondrial nad1 intron 1, which was accompanied by the increased accumulation of the nad1 exon 1 and exons 2–5 precursors.

The failed formation of mature nad1 led to a dramatically decreased assembly and activity of complex I, reduced ATP production, and changed mitochondrial morphology. In addition, loss of function of FLO10 significantly induced an alternative respiratory pathway involving alternative oxidase.

These results reveal that FLO10 plays an important role in the maintenance of mitochondrial function and endosperm development through its effect on the trans‐splicing of the mitochondrial nad1 intron 1 in rice.
The arbuscular mycorrhizal symbiosis regulates aquaporins activity and improves root cell water permeability in maize plants subjected to water stress

Published: March 2019

AbstractStudies have suggested that increased root hydraulic conductivity in mycorrhizal roots could be the result of increased cell‐to‐cell water flux via aquaporins. This study aimed to elucidate if the key effect of the regulation of maize aquaporins by the arbuscular mycorrhizal (AM) symbiosis is the enhancement of root cell water transport capacity. Thus, water permeability coefficient (Pf) and cell hydraulic conductivity (Lpc) were measured in root protoplast and intact cortex cells of AM and non‐AM plants subjected or not to water stress. Results showed that cells from droughted‐AM roots maintained Pf and Lpc values of nonstressed plants, whereas in non‐AM roots, these values declined drastically as a consequence of water deficit. Interestingly, the phosphorylation status of PIP2 aquaporins increased in AM plants subjected to water deficit, and Pf values higher than 12 μm s−1 were found only in protoplasts from AM roots, revealing the higher water permeability of AM root cells. In parallel, the AM symbiosis increased stomatal conductance, net photosynthesis, and related parameters, showing a higher photosynthetic capacity in these plants. This study demonstrates a better performance of AM root cells in water transport under water deficit, which is connected to the shoot physiological performance in terms of photosynthetic capacity.
Phytophthora oleae, a new root pathogen of wild olives
Authors: González M. , Pérez‐Sierra A. , Sánchez M. E. 
Published: March 2019

Wild olive (Olea europaea subsp. europaea var. sylvestris) is an important component of Mediterranean forests and a key genetic source for olive improvement programmes. Since 2009, a severe decline caused by Phytophthora cryptogea and P. megasperma has been detected in a protected wild olive forest of high ecological value (Dehesa de Abajo, Seville, Spain). In this natural forest, sampling of roots and soil was carried out on 25 wild olives with symptoms in 2014 and 2015. Apart from the already known P. cryptogea A1 and P. megasperma, a third Phytophthora species was consistently isolated from wild olive rootlets with symptoms. These isolates conformed morphologically with the newly described species P. oleae and were confirmed by analysis of their ITS regions and cox1 sequences. Temperature–growth relationships showed a maximum growth at 19.9 °C on carrot agar medium, making it the lowest temperature Phytophthora species infecting wild olive roots. Pathogenicity was confirmed on 1‐year‐old healthy wild olive seedlings and was similar to the previously known pathogenic phytophthoras. As temperature requirements are quite different, the three Phytophthora species may be active against wild olive roots in different seasons. However, the prevalence of P. oleae infecting wild olives in recent years could be due to its introduction as a new invasive pathogen. The probable invasive nature of P. oleae, together with increasing rain episodes concentrated in short periods frequent in southern Spain, would allow the outbreak of infections in wild olive forests, and also put cultivated olive orchards at risk.
