Measurement of Psychological Resilience to Support Therapy Interventions for Clients in the Clinical Mental Healthcare Setting: A Scoping Review
Authors: Margetts Judye L. , Hazelton Michael , Santangelo Peter , Yorke Janelle , Wilson Rhonda L. 
Published: September 2024

ABSTRACTWaves of psychological research over 50 years have resulted in the development of scales to measure psychological resilience. Multiple psychological resilience definitions and factors have emerged during this time, making its measurement complex. The overall aim of the review was to identify and describe developments in the measurement of psychological resilience in the clinical mental healthcare setting. Specific objectives included (1) consideration of the validity and reliability of psychological resilience scales, (2) the effectiveness of the scales in clinical mental healthcare settings and (3) to identify the scope that resilience factors are addressed in the included scales. It provides a timely update regarding psychological resilience measurement tools and considers further developments that may be required. Between 2011 and 2024, databases were searched, and English‐language, peer‐reviewed papers with full text were extracted. Eligible studies were those reporting validated existing resilience measures or the outcomes of new measures for use in clinical mental healthcare settings. Seventeen studies met the inclusion criteria. The review demonstrated that psychological resilience measures require further development, particularly focusing on the utility of measurement tools in clinical mental healthcare settings. In this review, we highlight an existing gap in resilience measurement and underscore the need for a new measure of psychological resilience that can effectively assess individuals' subjective experience of their psychological resilience in clinical mental healthcare settings. The currently available psychological resilience measures included in this review do not directly reflect all the factors that might impact a client's depression or anxiety and warrant further research.

Published: September 2024

ABSTRACTIntimate partner violence (IPV) transcends cultural, social and economic boundaries, affecting countless individuals globally. Recovery for IPV survivors is supported by their social networks, yet the readiness of these networks is often poorly understood. This perspective paper proposes an extension to existing network‐oriented IPV support models by integrating a focus on the readiness and well‐being of informal supporters towards the goal of enhancing IPV survivor recovery through effective networks. This paper presents the extended social network‐oriented support model, incorporating the Informal Supporter Readiness Inventory. This tool assesses the readiness of informal supporters, incorporating factors, such as normative and individual beliefs about IPV, and context‐specific factors, to enable identification and targeted assistance where needed. Additionally, the proposed model emphasises the importance of supporting the well‐being of informal supporters, who frequently endure elevated levels of stress, anxiety and depression. By integrating these elements, the extended social network‐oriented support model is designed to help professional supporters foster resilient and sustainable support networks for IPV survivors, with potential applicability across various healthcare disciplines. The extended model underscores the necessity of assessing and fostering both the readiness and well‐being of informal supporters to enhance the recovery journey for IPV survivors.

ABSTRACTBiological nitrogen fixation (BNF) in legume crops is a crucial ecosystem service that enhances soil nitrogen and reduces the need for chemical fertilisers. This study evaluates the factors influencing the proportion of plant nitrogen derived from atmospheric fixation (Ndfa) in legume crops. We compiled a global dataset spanning from 1980 to 2018 and used the 15N method to assess the impacts of crop species, climatic conditions, stand composition and nitrogen fertilisation on Ndfa. The global meta‐analysis reveals that the percentage of nitrogen derived from atmospheric fixation (Ndfa) in legumes ranges from 5% to 99%, with an average of 68%. Fodder legumes exhibited higher Ndfa, averaging 75%, while grain legumes showed more variability, ranging from 38% to 85%, depending on species and climatic conditions. The significant variability in Ndfa underscores the complexity of the process, which is influenced by species‐specific traits, ecological conditions and competition in mixed stands. However, the current data is insufficient for precise Ndfa estimation in nitrogen balances and decision support tools. The study highlights the need for further research on the impact of nitrogen fertilisation and stand composition on Ndfa. These findings emphasise the potential of BNF to support sustainable agriculture by improving nitrogen availability and reducing dependence on synthetic fertilisers and particularly susceptibility to climate change challenges. To optimise the benefits of BNF, future research should focus on refining fertilisation regimes and exploring species‐specific responses to various ecological conditions. Exploring adaptive strategies, like selecting drought‐tolerant legumes and optimising irrigation, is essential. This will enhance the application of BNF in diverse agricultural systems, contributing to more sustainable and efficient farming practices.
Everything Everywhere All at Once? Introducing a Field‐Theoretic Model for Party Politics in the European Union
Authors: Pittoors Gilles 
Published: September 2024

AbstractThe European Union (EU) is facing a democratic deficit, which scholars have argued political parties could help resolve. However, few have asked what model of party (system) is suitable for achieving this. To assume that the models of party politics used in the nation‐state context can simply be transposed to the European level would be mistaken. A new model is needed that theorises parties as genuine multilevel actors whose behaviour at the European level can only be understood by also appreciating national‐level dynamics, and vice versa. I argue that organisational field theory can help innovate the way we think about party democracy in the EU, introducing the European Multilevel Party Field. It is based on the understanding that European politics is ‘everything everywhere all at once’, with actors operating in permanent interdependence with others across levels and borders. This model helps capture more accurately the complex reality of European politics.

AbstractGeneralized pustular psoriasis (GPP) is a rare, chronic skin disease, characterized by widespread pustules and erythema, often accompanied with systemic signs and symptoms. GPP flares occur episodically but may be protracted. Left untreated, GPP can be life‐threatening. Despite being first reported over 100 years ago, definitions and diagnostic criteria for GPP have been inconsistent and varied due, in part, to its rarity and a limited understanding of its pathogenesis. As such, many patients with GPP face delays in diagnosis and subsequent treatment. This manuscript aims to increase the recognition of GPP and provide foundational considerations to aid in the definition and diagnosis of this disease.

AbstractObjectiveClinical practice guidelines (CPGs) for Integrated Traditional Chinese and Western Medicine (TCM and WM) are important medical documents used to assist medical decision‐making and are of great significance for standardizing clinical pathways. However, due to the constraints of text format, it is difficult for Integrated TCM and WM CPGs to play a real role in medical practice. In addition, how to standardize the structure and semantic relationships between Integrated TCM and WM CPG knowledge, and realize the construction of computable, sharable and reliable CPGs, remains an urgent issue to be addressed. Therefore, we are proposing an ontology of CPGs for Integrated TCM and WM.MethodsWe first initialized domain concepts and relationships to ensure the accuracy of the ontology knowledge structure. We then screened CPGs that meet the standards for Integrated TCM and WM, analyzed and classified the contents, and extracted the common structures. Based on the seven‐step ontology construction method combined with inference‐complement, referring to the representation methods and hierarchical relationships of terms and concepts in MeSH, ICD‐10, SNOMED‐CT, and other ontologies and terminology sets, we formed the concept structure and semantic relationship tables for the ontology. We also achieved the matching and mapping between the ontology and reference ontologies and term sets. Next, we defined the aspects and constraints of properties, selected multiple Integrated TCM and WM CPGs as instances to populate, and used ontology reasoning tools and formulated defined inference rules to reason and extend the ontology. Finally, we evaluated the performance of the ontology.ResultsThe content of the Integrated TCM and WM CPGs is divided into nine parts: basic information, background, development method, clinical question, recommendation, evidence, conclusion, result, and reason for recommendations. The Integrated TCM and WM CPG ontology has 152 classes and defines 90 object properties and 114 data properties, with a maximum classification depth of 4 layers. The terms of disease, drug and examination item names in the ontology have been standardized.ConclusionsThis study proposes an Integrated TCM and WM CPG ontology. The ontology adopts a modular design, which has both sharing and scaling ability, and can express rich guideline knowledge. It provides important support for the semantic processing and computational application of guideline documents.

Published: September 2024

AbstractThe diamondback moth (DBM), Plutella xylostella (L.), is responsible for extensive losses in brassicas' production, with its control heavily relying on the use of insecticides. The imbricated brassica's leaves on the stem provide a suitable habitat for the ring‐legged earwig, Euborellia annulipes (Lucas), to attack DBM larvae and pupae. The study focused on the combination of the earwig with indoxacarb and cyantraniliprole against DBM, as these insecticides target chewing and sucking sap pests infesting Brassica crops, respectively. These insecticides were tested against adult earwigs, 5th instar nymphs and predation upon DBM. When exposed to the recommended rates, the survival rates for nymphs were 74%, 100% and 96% in the cyantraniliprole, indoxacarb and control groups, respectively, and over 90% for adults. When 5th instar earwig nymphs were exposed to cyantraniliprole, they took 16.3 days to develop compared to indoxacarb (3.4 days) or the control group (3.2 days). Furthermore, females exposed to cyantraniliprole required more time to initiate oviposition and produced fewer eggs in the first egg batch. Despite that, the egg‐hatching rate was greater than 80% in all treatments. Female earwigs confined to indoxacarb‐ or cyantraniliprole‐treated or untreated leaves and DBM larvae maintained similar survival but lower consumption of DBM larvae when exposed to cyantraniliprole. The findings revealed that cyantraniliprole weakened the potential of the ring‐legged earwig to control DBM. On the other hand, indoxacarb was harmless to the earwig and showed additive mortality for the pest. Therefore, indoxacarb seems compatible with E. annulipes, while cyantraniliprole has a sublethal effect that slows down development and reproduction.

Published: September 2024

AbstractThe common carp is one of the most economically valuable freshwater fish worldwide and its aquaculture can be severely affected by the koi sleepy disease (KSD)/carp edema virus disease (CEVD). This study explores a natural outbreak of CEVD in a pond containing both clinically healthy and diseased fish of various origins exposed to the virus. We investigated mRNA expression of genes associated with known antiviral immune mechanisms, such as type I interferon signalling and cell‐mediated cytotoxicity, and performed a comprehensive protein expression analysis to highlight differences between the two groups in various organs. Significant differences in expression profiles of common carp with and without clinical signs were found to be strongly dependent on the organ from which the sample originated. Components of the complement cascade, including various C3 proteins, exhibited upregulation only in less affected organs, specifically the head kidney and spleen. Other complement proteins such as B/C2 and C9 showed upregulation in the kidney, spleen, and gills but not in the skin. Conversely, lysozymes C and G, were observed to be upregulated in the most affected organs of the skin and gills. This study submits the first description of the immune system related proteome using a mass spectrometry on the samples isolated from fish infected with CEV. It also offers a unique comparison of immune reaction of CEV infected and healthy fish under an infectious pressure.

ObjectivesTo describe the techniques for preparation and placement of peripheral intravenous catheters (PIVCs), to describe the complications associated with PIVCs, and to identify factors associated with PIVC complications in small animal practice in the United Kingdom.Materials and MethodsA prospective multicentre observational study was undertaken between January 2022 and January 2023. Data collected included patient information, information regarding the placement and maintenance of PIVCs, and PIVC complications, from privately owned cats and dogs presenting to veterinary institutes in the United Kingdom. Patients required a PIVC to be placed as part of their care and the PIVC was anticipated to be in situ for >24 hours to be eligible for PIVC complication analysis.ResultsA total of 19 institutes recorded data regarding 382 PIVCs, with 325 (85.1%) placed in dogs and 57 (14.9%) in cats. The most common reasons for placement were to administer intravenous fluid therapy (74.3%) and intravenous medications (71.7%). There were 102 of 382 (26.7%) PIVCs associated with a complication, with limb swelling/suspected phlebitis in 44 of 382 (11.5%) and PIVC dislodgement/patient interference in 30 of 382 (7.9%) PIVCs. Factors associated with increased risk of complication were more than 1 attempt to place the PIVC, a second or subsequent PIVC being placed during hospitalisation, flush frequency different than every 1 to 24 hours, and flush solution with compound sodium lactate.Clinical SignificanceVeterinary professionals must be vigilant when monitoring a patient with a PIVC in situ, particularly if a PIVC is associated with one of the aforementioned factors of increased likelihood of complication.

ObjectivesTo describe clinical, ultrasonographic, pathological features and response to medical therapy of four dogs with intestinal lipogranulomatous lymphangitis.MethodsRetrospective review of medical records of dogs with an ultrasonographic evidence of focal or multifocal intestinal wall thickening and a histological diagnosis of lipogranulomatous lymphangitis. Only dogs that did not undergo surgical resection of the lesions were included. The clinical response to medical treatment, consisting of low‐fat or hydrolysed diet along with immunosuppressive agents was assessed; clinicopathological and ultrasonographic abnormalities were re‐evaluated over time, with a median follow‐up period of 16.5 months.ResultsFour dogs met the inclusion criteria. The main historical complaints were diarrhoea (three of four dogs), vomiting (three of four dogs) and abdominal pain (two of four dogs). Clinicopathological abnormalities comprised hypoproteinaemia, hypoalbuminaemia and mild/moderate increase in C‐reactive protein levels (three of four dogs). Abdominal ultrasound revealed focal (two of four dogs) or multifocal (two of four dogs) intestinal wall thickening involving distal jejunum, ileum and ileocolic junction. Histopathology of full thickness intestinal biopsies revealed granulomatous enteritis and lymphangitis with lymphangiectasia. Nutritional and medical treatment allowed complete clinical remission in all four dogs within a month of therapy. Improvement of ultrasound abnormalities was noted in three of the four dogs over a 3‐ to 12‐month period.Clinical SignificanceIntestinal lipogranulomatous lymphangitis is a rare form of canine chronic enteropathy characterised by focal or multifocal intestinal lesions due to the presence of transmural intestinal lipogranulomas. This is the first case series describing successful management of intestinal lipogranulomatous lymphangitis through medical treatment alone.

ObjectiveOsteoporosis is a severe bone disease with a complex pathogenesis involving various immune processes. With the in‐depth understanding of bone immune mechanisms, discovering new therapeutic targets is crucial for the prevention and treatment of osteoporosis. This study aims to explore novel bone immune markers related to osteoporosis based on single‐cell and transcriptome data, utilizing bioinformatics and machine learning methods, in order to provide novel strategies for the diagnosis and treatment of the disease.MethodsSingle cell and transcriptome data sets were acquired from Gene Expression Omnibus (GEO). The data was then subjected to cell communication analysis, pseudotime analysis, and high dimensional WGCNA (hdWGCNA) analysis to identify key immune cell subpopulations and module genes. Subsequently, ConsensusClusterPlus analysis was performed on the key module genes to identify different diseased subgroups in the osteoporosis (OP) training set samples. The immune characteristics between subgroups were evaluated using Cibersort, EPIC, and MCP counter algorithms. OP's hub genes were screened using 10 machine learning algorithms and 113 algorithm combinations. The relationship between hub genes and immunity and pathways was established by evaluating the immune and pathway scores of the training set samples through the ESTIMATE, MCP‐counter, and ssGSEA algorithms. Real‐time fluorescence quantitative PCR (RT‐qPCR) testing was conducted on serum samples collected from osteoporosis patients and healthy adults.ResultsIn OP samples, the proportions of bone marrow‐derived mesenchymal stem cells (BM‐MSCs) and neutrophils increased significantly by 6.73% (from 24.01% to 30.74%) and 6.36% (from 26.82% to 33.18%), respectively. We found 16 intersection genes and four hub genes (DND1, HIRA, SH3GLB2, and F7). RT‐qPCR results showed reduced expression levels of DND1, HIRA, and SH3GLB2 in clinical blood samples of OP patients. Moreover, the four hub genes showed positive correlations with neutrophils (0.65–0.90), immature B cells (0.76–0.92), and endothelial cells (0.79–0.87), while showing negative correlations with myeloid‐derived suppressor cells (negative 0.54–0.73), T follicular helper cells (negative 0.71–0.86), and natural killer T cells (negative 0.75–0.85).ConclusionNeutrophils play a crucial role in the occurrence and development of osteoporosis. The four hub genes potentially inhibit metabolic activities and trigger inflammation by interacting with other immune cells, thereby significantly contributing to the onset and diagnosis of OP.

Published: September 2024

AbstractBackgroundParkinson's disease (PD) increases patient load and requirements of care. Determining the burden on PD patients' caregivers and associated factors may help to identify methods to reduce caregiver burden. This study investigated the factors associated with caregiver burden among PD patients caregivers.MethodsEighty‐five PD patients and 85 caregivers were included in the study. Zarit Burden Interview (ZBI) was used to measure caregiver burden; the Ways of Coping Scale (WCS) was used for coping; Modified Hoehn‐Yahr Staging (MHYS) was used for staging patients. The International Parkinson and Movement Disorder Society Unified Parkinson's Disease Rating Scale (MDS‐UPDRS) parts 1 and 3 were used to evaluate non‐motor and motor problems. Caregivers' depression and anxiety levels were evaluated with the Beck Depression Inventory and Beck Anxiety Inventory (BAI). Spearmen correlation coefficient was used to evaluate the relationship of variables with the ZBI score, and multiple linear regression analysis was used to determine the predictors of the ZBI score.ResultsA positive significant relationship was found between the ZBI score and BAI score, MHYS score, WCS total score, and subscales: keeping to self, seeking refuge in fate, and seeking refuge in supernatural forces. MHYS score, WCS total score, BAI score, and MDS‐UPDRS‐1 were predictors of the ZBI score.ConclusionsThe anxiety levels of caregivers, their ways of coping, and the patient's stage of the disease are important in caregiver burden. Coping ways can be changed to reduce the care burden. Developing psychological interventions for caregivers to change their coping styles can be important.
