AbstractThis study examines the physicochemical characteristics, morphometric features, biometric growth parameters, biological indices, physiological parameters, and biochemical profiles of Schizothorax niger population. The physicochemical analysis revealed a maximum temperature of 12.93 ± 1.33°C and hardness of 156.53 ± 12.82 mg/L in Dal Lake, whereas the Jhelum River had a minimum level of 10.94 ± 1.12°C temperature and 128.31 ± 11.62 mg/L of hardness. Dal Lake had a neutral pH (7.5 ± 0.2) and lower dissolved oxygen (6.8 ± 0.4 mg/L) compared to the Jhelum River (pH 7.2 ± 0.3; dissolved oxygen 7.5 ± 0.5 mg/L). Morphometric analysis showed significant differences (p < 0.05) in fish length (Dal Lake: 18.4 ± 2.1 cm; the Jhelum River: 21.0 ± 1.8 cm) and weight (Dal Lake: 74.5 ± 9.8 g; the Jhelum River: 92.2 ± 7.4 g) between the sites. Biometric growth parameters demonstrated a positive allometric growth pattern, with Dal Lake having a steeper slope (b = 3.15) than the Jhelum River (b = 2.98). Biological indices revealed gender‐based variations in the gonado‐somatic index (GSI) and hepato‐somatic index (HSI), with GSI being higher in Dal Lake (0.21 ± 0.02) and HSI in the Jhelum River (1.04 ± 0.09). Haematological and biochemical analyses showed significant differences in parameters such as haematocrit (Dal Lake: 29.2 ± 2.1%; the Jhelum River: 32.4 ± 1.8%), glucose (Dal Lake: 85.3 ± 5.4 mg/dL; the Jhelum River: 68.1 ± 4.2 mg/dL), and total protein (Dal Lake: 6.2 ± 0.4 g/dL; the Jhelum River: 5.8 ± 0.3 g/dL) between sites. These findings provide valuable insights into the physiological traits and population dynamics of S. niger, informing species‐specific conservation strategies and ecosystem management practices.

AbstractThe central opioid system and dopaminergic activity in mammals play key roles in mediating social reward, impulsivity, cognition, decision making, and motivation for learning and social interactions. Repeated positive fighting experiences enhance the gene expression levels of μ‐type opioid receptor (Mor), tyrosine hydroxylase (Th), an enzyme involved in dopamine synthesis, and dopamine receptor type 2 (D2r) in the reward‐related brain regions of aggressive mice. However, it remains unclear whether the opioid system and dopaminergic activity are associated with repeated winning in fish. In this study, we investigated changes in the expression levels of Mor, Th1, and D2r in different regions of the brain of adult medaka Oryzias latipes males after intermittent and continuous fight for 3 days. When a pair of males was provided a fighting opportunity for 20 min per day, we noted that within the 3‐day observation period, aggressive winning males showed significantly higher expression levels of Mor in telencephalon and diencephalon, Th1 in diencephalon, and D2r in telencephalon than subordinate losing males. However, no such differences in gene expression level were observed between winning and losing males in the 3‐day continuous fight. Further, no differences were detected in the total number of aggressive actions among the winners from each fighting test. However, the total number of “chase” actions, with a stronger aggressiveness index, was higher for the repeated winning male in the three‐time intermittent fight than for the winner in the 3‐day continuous fight. These findings suggest that repeated intermittent winning experiences with strong aggressiveness could be perceived as a reward by O. latipes males.

ABSTRACTBackgroundAn in‐depth and detailed facial assessment is critical in treating and achieving desirable dermal filler and neurotoxin results.MethodsAn acronym called A.S.S.E.S.S. simplifies an often complex and overwhelming amount of data needed to assimilate when performing facial filler and neurotoxin injections. Applying this method to patients in six simple steps provides a starting point and offers a guideline to capture key details for a more comprehensive facial assessment. The A.S.S.E.S.S. acronym stands for animate, shape, side, external, symmetry, and shadows and is helpful in following a methodical approach in analyzing facial shape, profile, and natural facial curves in both static and dynamic states.ResultsFollowing a regimented A.S.S.E.S.S. approach prior to treating filler and neurotoxin patients allows providers a straightforward guide to achieve a desirable facial shape and profile.ConclusionThis stepwise facial assessment establishes a logical and detailed approach to ensure the important aspects of facial details are appreciated in creating reliable and pleasing filler and neurotoxin results.

Published: October 2024

AbstractCervical cancer poses a significant health burden for women worldwide, particularly in India. Despite global progress, India's mortality rate, with 79 906 deaths, remains disproportionately high at approximately 11.2 per 100 000 women compared to the global average of 7.1 per 100 000 women. India's NPCDCS and other initiatives focus on VIA screening for women aged 30–65. The National Health Policy 2017 emphasizes primary healthcare enhancement, allocating two‐thirds of the budget. Ayushman Bharat promotes universal health coverage, including Health and Wellness Centers and PM‐JAY. Initiatives like Ayushman Bharat and the National Cancer Grid offer hope for improved cancer care. Leveraging technology, strengthening infrastructure, integrating services, promoting awareness, and enhancing HPV vaccination are crucial. By addressing barriers, improving access, and fostering collaboration, the cervical cancer burden can be reduced, ensuring better health outcomes for women nationwide.

AbstractAimTo investigate the efficacy and safety of long‐term adjusted low‐dose gonadotropin‐releasing hormone agonist therapy (GnRH agonist drawback therapy) with nafarelin acetate in patients with uterine fibroids and/or adenomyosis with menstrual symptoms.MethodsThis single‐center, retrospective, observational study initially included 118 patients with uterine fibroids and/or adenomyosis with menstrual symptoms who had received GnRH agonist (nafarelin acetate) drawback therapy for at least 7 months between 2010 and 2020.Blood hemoglobin level, maximum fibroid diameter, area of the corpus uteri, blood estradiol level, daily dosage of nafarelin acetate, and bone density in the lumbar spine and femoral neck were assessed before and after the treatment initiation.ResultsThe median treatment period was 28 months. Menstruation had ceased in all patients. The median hemoglobin level significantly increased from 8.6 to 13.2 g/dL before treatment and at 12 months after the treatment initiation in patients with fibroids and from 8.8 to 13.3 g/dL in patients with adenomyosis, respectively. Although the treatment did not exert a significant shrinking effect on the fibroids and adenomyosis, an increase in their size was not observed in any patient. The initial dose of nafarelin acetate was 400 μg/day and was lowered to 130 μg/day at 12 months. Only 29 patients (25%) had an estradiol level <30 pg/mL. The average rate of bone density change over 6 months was −1.23% in the lumbar spine and −1.12% in the femoral neck in patients with fibroids and −1.06% in the lumbar spine and −0.14% in the femoral neck in patients with adenomyosis, which were lower than the previously reported rates.ConclusionsGnRH agonist drawback therapy was found to be useful for the long‐term conservative treatment of uterine fibroids and adenomyosis. The treatment was safely and inexpensively performed with few adverse events.

AbstractAimThis study examined the relationship between postpartum hair loss and psychological symptoms.MethodsThis questionnaire‐based, cross‐sectional study included postpartum women who had delivered at two facilities and completed the questionnaire 10–18 months after delivery. Study protocols were sent by mail in two parts. Baseline characteristics and information regarding the pregnancy, delivery, childcare, and postpartum hair loss were obtained via a questionnaire. Psychological symptoms were assessed via the Whooley Questions, Generalized Anxiety Disorder 2‐item, and Edinburgh Postnatal Depression Scale. Participants were divided into two groups based on psychological symptoms. Multivariate analyses were performed.ResultsIn total, 331 responses were analyzed. Women with very much hair loss felt significantly more anxious than those with no postpartum hair loss, as reported on the Generalized Anxiety Disorder 2‐item anxiety subscale (odds ratio: 4.47). Multiple logistic regression analysis revealed that primiparity, greater amount of postpartum hair loss, and higher Athens Insomnia Scale scores were predictors of Generalized Anxiety Disorder 2‐item anxiety. Adjusted odds ratio of having anxiety among those with very much postpartum hair loss was 4.58 (95% confidence interval, 1.18–17.74) compared to those with no postpartum hair loss.ConclusionsA greater amount of postpartum hair loss was independently associated with postpartum anxiety on the Generalized Anxiety Disorder 2‐item.
‘Worthy survivors’ of domestic violence in the eyes of the Beijing courts
Authors: LIN JIAYING 
Published: October 2024

AbstractThis article builds on Paige Sweet's conceptualization of ‘worthy survivors’ in the United States context and adds a consideration of judicial discretion to define who were considered worthy survivors of domestic violence in the eyes of the Beijing courts in 2021 and 2022. After analysing judges’ decisions in civil judgments and civil orders, the article concludes that worthy survivors were those who described how their abusers challenged legal authorities or disturbed public order, submitted multiple external documents with a clear description of the domestic violence, or mentioned children as direct survivors of physical child abuse committed in public. By contrast, survivors with limited capacity for civil conduct (generally due to schizophrenia) were marginalized and treated as ‘unworthy’. This article contributes to our understanding by addressing how crafting stories in line with mainstream ideology in the specific society helped survivors to achieve institutional recognition.

Published: October 2024

ABSTRACTBACKGROUNDThis study offers a comprehensive review of academic performance measurement instruments in physical activity and education settings, aiming to provide a comprehensive list of tools used for measuring academic performance in relation to variables associated with physical activity.METHODSAcademic performance outcomes, including cognitive skills, attitudes, academic achievement, and academic behavior categorized by CDC, were investigated using specific keywords in search engines between 2000 and June 2022, with 233 articles (describing 220 studies) included.RESULTSParticipant demographics, mainly elementary students, displayed variability. The review found that 37.3% of studies measured cognitive skills and attitudes (primarily attention), 57.3% assessed academic achievement (GPA, subject scores, or standardized tests), and 15.9% evaluated academic behaviors (mostly on‐task/off‐task behaviors). Various instruments were employed, notably those measuring attention, intelligence, memory, and attitude. Positive associations were found in 63.4%, 78.6%, and 85.7% of studies for cognitive skills, academic achievement, and academic behavior, respectively.CONCLUSIONThis literature review highlights the prevalence of studies on academic achievement, diverse cognitive skills instruments, and a focus on attention. Despite predominantly positive relationships, some studies reported non‐significant or negative associations, particularly for cognitive skills. Future research should emphasize these areas using reliable instruments.

Published: October 2024

ABSTRACTBACKGROUNDSchools are both learning environments for students and workplaces for faculty. Recognizing the role of organizational factors in staff health in school environments, the study aimed to explore which factors, including transformational leadership, teachers' perceived management support and HPS accreditation awards, were most associated with promoting a healthy lifestyle for teachers.METHODSA cross‐sectional study was undertaken of 137 elementary schools in 2014, involving 433 directors and 2090 teachers. Data were collected using an anonymous structured questionnaire. Hierarchical linear modeling was used to analyze both teacher‐ and school‐level factors associated with health‐promoting lifestyles.RESULTSThere was a significant positive correlation between teachers' overall health‐promoting lifestyle profile (HPLP‐II) scores and both perceived management support (coefficient = .98, p < .001) and transformational leadership (coefficient = .38, p = .039). All 6 HPLP‐II subscales also showed significant positive correlations with perceived management support (coefficients .12‐.24, p < .001).CONCLUSIONSupporting a healthy working atmosphere and strong principal transformational leadership are keys to enhancing teachers' health‐promoting lifestyles. Future research could explore how transformational leadership and management support influence teachers' health behaviors and identify effective strategies and interventions.
Associations Between Adverse Childhood Experiences, Adolescent Behavioral Health Challenges, and High School Dropout*
Authors: Moore Chelsea R , Stoddard Sarah A 
Published: October 2024

ABSTRACTBACKGROUNDAdverse childhood experiences (ACEs) are associated with behavioral health challenges and high school dropout, and behavioral health is associated with high school dropout. Less is known about the role of behavioral health challenges in the relationship between ACEs and high school dropout.METHODSUsing data from the Panel Study of Income Dynamics (2013) and its 2014 Childhood Retrospective Circumstances Study supplement, the current study conducts mediational path analysis to examine the direct and indirect effects of cumulative ACEs on high school dropout via adolescent depression, anxiety, and substance use.RESULTSExperiencing more ACEs was associated with depression, anxiety, and substance use. Only depression and substance use were associated with high school dropout. There was a significant direct effect between increased ACEs and high school dropout and significant indirect effects via depression and substance use, but not anxiety.CONCLUSIONSAdolescent behavioral health interventions to address the long‐term effects of ACEs may also support academic achievement. School‐based interventions, particularly those aligned with trauma‐sensitive school frameworks and engaging various school personnel, including school nurses, should be considered. Community‐ and policy‐level interventions aimed at primary prevention of ACEs are also needed.
Red, blue, and green? The association between CEOs' political ideologies and green new product introductions

Published: October 2024

AbstractNot all firms exhibit the same level of commitment to green new product introductions (GNPIs), yet our understanding of the factors underlying these disparities remains incomplete. Prior research has primarily focused on firm‐level factors, paying little attention to individual‐level antecedents of GNPIs. This imbalance in the GNPI literature contrasts with the broader innovation and general management literature, which displays an ever‐growing interest in the “human side of innovation,” acknowledging the relevance of Chief Executive Officers' (CEOs') political ideologies for organizational outcomes. Addressing this imbalance, our study examines the relationship between CEOs' political ideologies and their firms' GNPIs, along with the conditions that shape this influence. Grounded in social identity theory, our study first argues that the more liberal CEOs are, the more GNPIs their firms are likely to generate and that this association is amplified by CEO power. It then proposes that the more liberal CEOs are, the more likely they are to respond to adverse situations beyond their control (a Republican presidency or lower levels of consumer green sentiment) by initiating more GNPIs. It finally posits that the more liberal CEOs are, the fewer GNPIs they tend to initiate in response to adverse situations for which they are accountable (involvement in sustainability‐related scandals). We integrate data from seven databases into a longitudinal dataset comprising 89 firms and 192 CEOs over the period 2010–2020 to test our theoretical framework empirically. Time‐lagged panel regression analyses strongly support our theoretical arguments. Our findings contribute to the emergence of an individual‐level, microfoundational perspective on sustainable innovations, our knowledge about the organizational implications and boundary conditions of CEOs' political ideologies, and the treatment of multiple identities within social identity theory, especially the relationship between political and occupational identities. The implications of our findings extend to business practitioners, offering valuable insights for CEOs, boards of directors, and investors.
Users' Experience of Treatment and Coercion in an Inpatient Medium‐Stay Psychiatric Rehabilitation Unit: A Mixed Methods Study
Authors: Aragonés‐Calleja Miriam , Sánchez‐Martínez Vanessa 
Published: October 2024

ABSTRACTIntroductionCoercion influences mental health services users' experience of care and can hinder their recovery process, so it is essential to understand how it is perceived in rehabilitation settings oriented towards recovery.AimTo describe and measure users' experience of coercion and explore their perception of the treatment received in an inpatient medium‐stay psychiatric rehabilitation unit (IMSPRU).MethodThis study, in which 75 service users participated, used a mixed methods approach. Twenty participants were administered a semistructured interview and completed quantitative measures for coercion and 55 additional service users completed the quantitative measurements only. The perception of coercion was measured using the Coercion Experience Scale.ResultsThe content analysis of qualitative data resulted in two main themes: treatment received and experience of coercion in the IMSPRU. The participants made a distinction between good treatment and mistreatment or unfair treatment. Experience of coercion in the IMSPRU included the feeling of freedom or lack thereof in the unit, forms of formal and informal coercion, and the positive or negative impact of rules on the unit. The quantitative data revealed a low perception of formal coercion among the users.DiscussionIndividuals had different views of what it meant to be treated well, but all agreed on the importance of communication and the need to feel respected. Informal coercion was the most frequent type of coercion identified, but users were often unaware of its existence.Implications for PracticeKnowledge of how IMSPRU users experience the treatment received from nursing staff and how they perceive coercive situations will help to lay the foundations of a system of care oriented towards good treatment and noncoercive practices.
Multigene phylogenetics of Sargassum (Phaeophyceae) revealed low molecular diversity in contrast to high morphological variability in the NE Atlantic Ocean

Published: October 2024

AbstractSargassum species play a key role in habitat formation in tropical and subtropical regions; however, species identification has been hampered by the phenological plasticity exhibited in response to environmental conditions and life history. Molecular phylogenetics has challenged taxa circumscriptions and proven critical in delimiting species in this genus. Yet, the Atlantic species of Sargassum remain poorly understood, and recent studies have shown low molecular diversity between the species in the NW Atlantic. Here, we expand the taxon sampling to the NE Atlantic to assess the diversity of Sargassum in the Atlantic basin, based on a comprehensive morphological and multigene approach. We selected genes commonly used in delineating species in this genus (ITS2, rbcLS, cox3, mtsp) and explored additional markers (cox2, nad6, psbC, clpC, atpB) to infer the phylogenetic relationships between the morphospecies observed in the NE Atlantic. Phylogenetic analyses using single‐gene and multigene alignments including 185 new sequences confirmed the low molecular diversity and supported the distinction of a single clade in Sargassum section Sargassum of N Atlantic benthic species. In contrast, morphological analysis resulted in the identification of 10 species and three new morphospecies that we described here but opt not to equate to species until further molecular evidence is available. Our results were congruent with previous findings from the NW Atlantic and highlight the morphological and ecological diversity of Sargassum in the Atlantic. These results suggest a recent colonization and incipient speciation of Sargassum in the Atlantic basin and showcase the need of further high‐throughput analyses.
