Psychosocial impacts of post-disaster compensation processes: narrative systematic review
Authors: Brooks Samantha K. , Rogers M. Brooke , Wessely Simon , Patel Sonny S. , Greenberg Neil 
Published: October 2024

AbstractAfter disasters, many people seek compensation for physical, psychological or economic damages. However, compensation processes can be perceived as arduous and unfair and potentially create stress for both individuals and communities. This systematic review explored the psychosocial impacts of post-disaster compensation processes, including compensation sought through both litigation and government assistance programmes. We searched seven databases, hand-searched reference lists of included studies, and used thematic analysis to synthesise results of included studies. We screened 6,532 papers, ultimately including 66 in the review. While we found mixed evidence regarding the relationship between individual mental health and the compensation process, many studies suggested the process placed demands on emotional resources and could cause stress. Numerous challenges of the compensation process were described, including complicated paperwork, lengthy processes, inadequate information, confusing eligibility criteria, lack of inter-agency cooperation, poor understanding of communities’ unique needs, insufficient pay-outs, and politicisation of the process. Inequities in compensation distribution introduced additional stress to already traumatised communities, who often experienced resentment, envy and conflict. The mixed nature of the relationship between mental health and the compensation process was evident in research trends where a small number of studies reported positive findings related to relating to gratitude, helpfulness of compensation and strengthened community relationships, while a substantial number of others reported negative impacts including higher mental health problems. Positive and negative impacts were reported for both litigation and non-litigation compensation-seeking. The nuanced dynamics of these findings are described in greater detail within the paper. It is important that compensation regulators consider the potential impacts on individuals and communities and take steps to address compensation inequities. This enhanced understanding of how those affected by disasters can rebuild their lives and furthering understanding of how to support them will enable evidence-based approaches to building resilience and planning for long-term recovery. Significant compensation process improvements could be realised by ensuring clear communication and transparent decision-making. Overall, this review underscores the importance of ensuring that compensation processes are fair and straightforward so they can repair material losses without deteriorating the social norms and relationships of affected communities.

Published: October 2024

Abstract
Background
Although subdural hematoma is a rare complication after spinal anesthesia, there have been no reports of an intracranial epidural hematoma after cesarean section with spinal anesthesia.

Case presentation
A 32-year-old nulliparous woman at the 35th week of a twin pregnancy underwent an emergency cesarean section due to her first contraction. She had no preoperative complications and the spinal anesthesia was uneventful, with 0.5% bupivacaine 12 mg and fentanyl 15 µg from the L3/4 intervertebral space. She complained of headache and nausea 15 min after spinal anesthesia, demonstrating a consciousness disturbance after surgery. Computed tomography 2 h after the cesarean section revealed an intracranial epidural hematoma. She underwent decompressive craniotomy 1 h later.

Conclusion
This case highlights the possible development of an intracranial epidural hematoma in low-risk obstetric patients.

Published: October 2024

Abstract
Background
Congenital shoulder dislocation due to shoulder girdle malformation is called true congenital shoulder dislocation. It is an extremely rare disorder as compared with traumatic dislocation or secondary to brachial plexus injury.

Case presentation
We report a case of atraumatic true congenital shoulder dislocation, one of the few reported cases across the world. The baby was born of a preterm caesarean section at 30 weeks of gestation, ruling out any perinatal trauma. The baby presented with a lateral shoulder crease and reduced movements of the affected upper limb. The diagnosis was confirmed with radiographs and a sonography that ruled out physeal injury. Treatment involved prompt closed reduction and stabilization by swathing in an adducted internally rotated position for two weeks.

Conclusion
Owing to the rarity of this condition, the case is being reported to be archived with a handful of other such cases.
Evaluation of tuber quality, yield and yield related traits of potato (
Solanum tuberosum
L.) genotypes at Holetta, Central Ethiopia
Authors: Seid Ebrahim , Tessema Lemma 
Published: October 2024

Abstract

In Ethiopia, potato is a food security and income generating crop for millions of smallholder farmers. Previous research efforts related to variety development was focusing on tube yield and late blight resistance with wide adaptability. So far, the potato research program in the country however, devoted less on tuber quality traits and processing parameters except few recently released varieties that considered tuber quality traits for processing. These few potato varieties with processing qualities not yet satisfied the ever-emerging processing industries for chips and French fries in the country. Hence, this study aimed to seek evaluating more potato genotypes that have merits for tuber quality traits used for processing and yield attributes. The experiment was laid out in a randomized completed block design with three replications using 24 potato genotypes to evaluate the processing quality traits of advanced potato genotypes at Holetta Agricultural Research Centre in 2017 main cropping season. The results of the analysis of variance revealed that all the traits showed significant differences among the genotypes indicating there is wide genetic variation. The highest and significantly different tuber physical quality traits of geometric mean diameter and surface area was recorded from CIP395017.229, sphericity of the tuber from CIP396027.205, and length to width ratio from CIP399075.7. The specific gravity of tubers, dry matter content and total starch content also ranged from 1.070 to 1.103 gcm

, 18.67 to 25.75%, and 12.64% to 18.95%, respectively. The five advanced genotypes CIP398098.65, CIP392617.54, CIP398190.404, CIP394611.112, and C398190.89 were selected for their high total tuber yields over 36.80 t/ha, with more than 31.47 t/ha marketable tuber yield, greeter than 69.92 g/tuber average tuber weight, higher than 58.41 mm

geometric mean diameter, more than 21.25% dry matter content, excellent tuber characteristics and processing quality traits for chips and French fries making. From this study, selection of potato genotypes that consider both external and internal tuber quality traits would expedite the process of advancing ample potato varieties with processing qualities in the country considering comprehensive study by including more potato genotypes across wider growing environments.

Published: October 2024

Abstract
Adrenal adenomas are benign tumors of the adrenal cortex that may secrete excess hormones, such as cortisol. They are most commonly discovered during imaging studies for unrelated problems. Lipomatous metaplasia is a rare degenerative change in adrenal adenomas, characterized by the presence of adipose tissue and hematopoietic elements within the tumor. In this report, we present a case of an adrenal adenoma with lipomatous metaplasia in a patient with hypertension, hyperlipidemia, and type II diabetes mellitus. The discovery of this adrenal mass was prompted by an evaluation of the patient's progressive hirsutism. The tumor was found to be secreting cortisol, leading to Cushing syndrome. The patient subsequently underwent surgical resection of the mass after being treated with mifepristone. The histopathological examination confirmed it to be an adrenal cortical neoplasm with lipomatous metaplasia, characterized by uncertain malignant potential. The patient did well postoperatively. Three months after left adrenalectomy, the patient's hirsutism, A1c, and hypertension improved, allowing a reduction in antihypertensives. Her body mass index stabilized, her triglyceride decreased, and her dehydroepiandrosterone sulfate level normalized. She continued to do well at follow-up visits. Overall, this was a rare case of a functioning adrenal adenoma with lipomatous metaplasia, presenting both diagnostic and therapeutic challenges.

ABSTRACT
Social interactions are important for how societies function, conferring robustness and resilience to environmental changes. The structure of social interactions can shape the dynamics of information and goods transmission. In addition, the availability and types of resources that are transferred might impact the structure of interaction networks. For example, storable resources might reduce the required speed of distribution and altering interaction structure can facilitate such change. Here, we use Camponotus fragilis ants as a model system to examine how social interactions are impacted by group size, food availability, and food type. We compare global- and individual-level network measures across experiments in which groups of different sizes received limited or unlimited food that is either favorable and cannot be stored (carbohydrates), or unfavorable but with a potential of being stored (protein). We found that in larger groups, individuals interacted with more social partners and connected more individuals, and interaction networks became more compartmentalized. Furthermore, the number of individuals that ants interacted with and the distance they traveled both increased when food was limited compared to when it was unlimited. Our findings highlight how biological systems can adjust their interaction networks in ways that relate to their function. The study of such biological flexibility can inspire novel and important solutions to the design of robust and resilient supply chains.

Abstract
There is a paucity of sport-specific safety data on high diving. This paper describes the results of a survey of all athletes competing in elite international competitions between 2009 and 2021.
Sixty-eight athletes completed surveys, representing a response rate of 80%. The rate of water safety team interventions was calculated at one intervention per 295 high dives for the men (0.34%) and one intervention per 265 high dives for the women (0.38%). After safety team intervention, 26% of the male and 42% of the female divers required hospital evaluation.
Circumstances reported by high divers that may contribute to an incident were performing a new dive (<10 repetitions), body position at water entry, and environmental factors such as water movement and cold ambient temperature. Statistically, a water safety team will intervene once or twice per 4-d tournament. Injury and illness surveillance both during tournaments and year-round is recommended.
Τα χαρακτηριστικά του αύλειου χώρου των νηπιαγωγείων της Θεσσαλονίκης: Απόψεις νηπιαγωγών
Authors: Γκλούμπου Αλεξάνδρα , Δημητρίου Αναστασία 
Published: October 2024

Οι αύλειοι χώροι αποτελούν βασικό στοιχείο του σχολικού περιβάλλοντος, ένα υλικό και κοινωνικό πλαίσιο, που περιλαμβάνει έναν γεωμετρικά διαμορφωμένο χώρο που χρησιμοποιείται από ομάδες ανθρώπων που μοιράζονται κοινά ενδιαφέροντα και ανάγκες. Τα φυσικά και τεχνητά στοιχεία των αύλειων χώρων προκαλούν ποικίλα ερεθίσματα που προσφέρουν πολλές ευκαιρίες δράσης, αλληλεπίδρασης και ανάπτυξης εκπαιδευτικών δραστηριοτήτων που συμβάλλουν στην ανάπτυξη των παιδιών. Σκοπός της έρευνάς μας ήταν να καταγραφούν τα χαρακτηριστικά του αύλειου χώρου των δημόσιων νηπιαγωγείων του Νομού Θεσσαλονίκης και οι τρόποι αξιοποίησης τους στην ανάπτυξη των παιδιών σύμφωνα με τις απόψεις των νηπιαγωγών που υπηρετούν σε αυτά και οι προτάσεις που διατυπώνουν για τη βελτίωσή τους. Η συλλογή των δεδομένων έγινε με ηλεκτρονικό ερωτηματολόγιο σε google form το οποίο περιλάμβανε ερωτήσεις ανοιχτού και κλειστού τύπου. Η ανάλυση των δεδομένων έγινε στις ανοιχτές ερωτήσεις με θεματική ανάλυση περιεχομένου και στις κλειστές ερωτήσεις με ποσοτική ανάλυση με τη χρήση του στατιστικού εργαλείου SPSS. Τα βασικά συμπεράσματα έδειξαν ότι οι νηπιαγωγοί θεωρούν απαραίτητη την ύπαρξη αύλειου χώρου, κυρίως για υλοποίηση εκπαιδευτικών δραστηριοτήτων, για την ανάπτυξη του παιδιού και για το παιχνίδι. Τα περισσότερα νηπιαγωγεία φαίνεται ότι διαθέτουν κάποιου είδους εξοπλισμό με κυριότερο τα πλαστικά παιχνίδια και τις ξύλινες σταθερές κατασκευές. Ένα μεγάλο ποσοστό αύλειων χώρων διαθέτει κάποιου είδους πράσινου, αν και το τσιμέντο είναι το υλικό που υπερισχύει. Ωστόσο, το επίπεδο του πρασίνου στην αυλή του νηπιαγωγείου φαίνεται να επηρεάζει τον βαθμό στον οποίο εκείνη προσφέρει δυνατότητες παιχνιδιού, άθλησης και κινητικών δραστηριοτήτων στα παιδιά. Τα επίπεδα θορύβου δεν φάνηκε να παρουσιάζουν διαφοροποίηση ανάλογα με την περιοχή όπου βρισκόταν το νηπιαγωγείο και οι νηπιαγωγοί δήλωναν ότι δεν ενοχλούνταν από αυτόν.
Unlocking the learning in formal complaints: the development of an end-of-life care complaint analysis tool
Authors: Walker Wendy , Dowling Alison 
Published: October 2024

Background/Aims End-of-life care is a targeted area of healthcare service reform. Complaints are increasingly recognised as a valuable source of evidence for evaluating practice and informing service improvement work. This project aimed to develop a tool to support the standardised coding, categorisation and organisational use of formal complaint data concerning end-of-life care for adults. Methods A service evaluation was conducted using existing data. Deductive analysis was conducted with 59 letters of formal complaint submitted to an NHS trust in the Midlands, UK. A published healthcare complaints analysis tool served as a thematic framework for use in conjunction with framework analysis. The project was carried out in two stages: the first comprised preliminary work to produce a template of end-of-life care concerns; the second involved pilot testing the face validity of the template when used as a coding and categorising scheme. Results An initial template of 20 subcategories of end-of-life care concerns were developed from the data during preliminary work. This template was deemed to enable the analyst to focus on predefined areas of interest, organise concerns into relevant themes, concisely present the data in a summarised form and provide meaningful objective conclusions. During pilot testing, 185 complainant concerns were coded and categorised, over half of which fell into the domain of ‘relationship problems’ (n=99; 53.5%). Within this domain, the most common problem categories were ‘communication’ (n=44) and ‘respect and rights’ (n=44). A total of five new subcategory concerns were also derived and added to the template. Collectively, the outcomes of complaint data analysis informed the structure of a dedicated end-of-life care complaint analysis tool comprising 25 subcategories of end-of-life care concerns and accompanying exemplar indicators, together with criteria that were meaningful to identifying the context of the care concerns. Conclusions A systematic approach to analysing and reporting complainants' experiences of end-of-life care has the potential to support organisational learning, quality monitoring and bespoke service improvements in response to collective complaints and concerns.

AimsThis study aims to evaluate the impact of metabolic syndrome in the setting of obesity on in-hospital outcomes and resource use after total joint replacement (TJR).MethodsA retrospective analysis was conducted using the National Inpatient Sample from 2006 to the third quarter of 2015. Discharges representing patients aged 40 years and older with obesity (BMI > 30 kg/m2) who underwent primary TJR were included. Patients were stratified into two groups with and without metabolic syndrome. The inverse probability of treatment weighting (IPTW) method was used to balance covariates.ResultsThe obese cohort with metabolic syndrome was significantly older, more likely to be female, had higher rates of Medicare insurance, and more likely to be non-Hispanic Black than the obese cohort without metabolic syndrome. In the unweighted analysis, patients with obesity and metabolic syndrome were more likely to experience cardiac, gastrointestinal, genitourinary, and postoperative anemia complications, had a longer length of stay, and were less likely to be discharged home compared to obese patients without metabolic syndrome. After adjusting for covariates using IPTW, patients with obesity and metabolic syndrome were more likely to experience postoperative anemia complications only and had lower rates of home discharge, but there were no significant differences in any other complication variables or length of stay.ConclusionGiven the variability of metabolic health in obesity, the development of tailored perioperative protocols and recommendations acknowledging this variability in metabolic health in obese patients would ultimately potentially benefit patients and improve outcomes of TJR.Cite this article: Bone Jt Open 2024;5(10):837–843.
Ordenar el territorio de La Palma tras la erupción volcánica de 2021: entre la mitigación del riesgo y la planificación neoliberal
Authors: Ramos Pérez David , Fernandes José Alberto Rio 
Published: October 2024

La erupción de 2021 en La Palma demostró que la inexistencia de una cultura del riesgo volcánico había impedido practicar una ordenación del territorio capaz de reducir la vulnerabilidad y, por tanto, minimizar los efectos de la catástrofe. Las graves consecuencias de la erupción abrieron una ventana de oportunidad para consolidar un cambio en la percepción del riesgo volcánico que permitiera no solo reorganizar el poblamiento disperso dominante sino reubicarlo en zonas de menor peligrosidad. La necesidad de elaborar una legislación territorial específica para abordar la recuperación y reconstrucción del Valle de Aridane proporcionaba el contexto idóneo para ello. Sin embargo, trascurridos más de dos años desde el inicio de la erupción, las medidas adoptadas olvidan por completo los peligros volcánicos existentes, espolean el poblamiento disperso preexistente y se alinean claramente con los principios ideológicos de la planificación urbana neoliberal.
Phaseless inverse scattering with a parametrized spatial spectral volume integral equation for finite scatterers in the soft x-ray regime

Published: October 2024

Soft x-ray wafer-metrology experiments are characterized by low signal-to-noise ratios and lack phase information, which both cause difficulties with the accurate three-dimensional profiling of small geometrical features of structures on a wafer. To this end, we extend an existing phase-based inverse-scattering method to demonstrate a sub-nanometer and noise-robust reconstruction of the targets by synthetic soft x-ray scatterometry experiments. The targets are modeled as three-dimensional finite dielectric scatterers embedded in a planarly layered medium, where a scatterer’s geometry and spatial permittivity distribution are described by a uniform polygonal cross section along its height. Each cross section is continuously parametrized by its vertices and homogeneous permittivity. The combination of this parametrization of the scatterers and the employed Gabor frames ensures that the underlying linear system of the spatial spectral Maxwell solver is continuously differentiable with respect to the parameters for phaseless inverse-scattering problems. In synthetic demonstrations, we demonstrate the accurate and noise-robust reconstruction of the parameters without any regularization term. Most of the vertex parameters are retrieved with an error of less than λ/13 with λ=13.5nm, when the ideal sensor model with shot noise detects at least five photons per sensor pixel. This corresponds to a signal-to-noise ratio of 3.5 dB. These vertex parameters are retrieved with an accuracy of λ/90 when the signal-to-noise ratio is increased to 10 dB, or approximately 100 photons per pixel. The material parameters are retrieved with errors ranging from 0.05% to 5% for signal-to-noise ratios between 10 dB and 3.5 dB.
