Published: October 2024

AbstractFor the past 6 years, the Society for Imaging Informatics in Medicine (SIIM) annual meeting has provided a forum for women in imaging informatics to discuss the unique challenges they face. These sessions have evolved into a platform for understanding, sharing experiences, and developing practical strategies. The 2023 session was organized into three focus groups devoted to discussing imposter syndrome, workplace microaggressions, and work-life balance. This paper summarizes these discussions and highlights the significant themes and narratives that emerged. We aim to contribute to the larger conversation on gender equity in the informatics field, emphasizing the importance of understanding and addressing the challenges faced by women in informatics. By documenting these sessions, we seek to inspire actionable change towards a more inclusive and equitable future for everyone in imaging informatics.

Published: October 2024

Abstract
Purpose
Reflux after laparoscopic sleeve gastrectomy (LSG) may result from anatomical and functional anomalies in the gastric conduit. Three-dimensional CT scans (3DCT) offer a comprehensive view of gastric anatomy. This study aims to establish specific measurements associated with sleeve abnormalities to standardise the reporting of 3DCT which may help in management of LSG complications.

Materials and Methods
This retrospective study analysed 64 post-LSG patients who underwent gastric 3DCT. Data included clinical demographics, pre-LSG BMI, BMI at 3DCT, and the duration between surgery and examination. Symptomatology prompts the scan and other concurrent investigations. Various 3DCT measurements were taken, including angularis angle (AA), surface area (ASA), conduit length (CL), proximal maximal surface area (PMSA), and distal maximal surface area (DMSA) of the gastric conduit. Patients were categorised based on endoscopy findings and symptomatology. Outcomes post-revisional surgery were assessed and analysed.

Results
20.3% were male. Pre-LSG BMI and BMI at 3DCT were 45.57 (± 8.3) and 36.3 (± 8.7), respectively. Mean surgery-to-scan period was 6.2 years. 71.8% of patients presented with reflux, regurgitation, or dysphagia, whilst the remainder primarily exhibited weight regain. Patients with endoscopic evidence of stenosis/reflux demonstrated significantly lower gastric volume, ASA, and DMSA (p = 0.002 and p = 0.007, respectively). Oesophageal diameter above the conduit and an ASA to DMSA ratio ≤ 0.5 were negatively associated with AA (p = 0.008 and p = 0.08, respectively). Patients with improved outcomes after revisional bypass and gastrogastrostomy displayed a negative correlation with ASA and positive correlation with the ASA to PMSA ratio (≤ 0.5).

Conclusion
3DCT measurements have a potential role in defining post-LSG stenosis and predicting outcomes of revisional surgery. Patients with anatomic abnormalities that are shown on CT appear to improve with anatomic correction.

Published: October 2024

AbstractTraditionally, disproportionality analysis (DPA) methods are employed for signal detection in pharmacovigilance, but these methods utilize only a limited portion of the data available from spontaneous event reports (SERs). This research aims to enhance signal detection by applying machine learning (ML) methods that can leverage additional data. We create a dataset by integrating SER data from the FDA Adverse Event Reporting System (FAERS) with biological and chemical data from DrugBank, and information on known adverse drug reactions (ADRs) from Side Effect Resource (SIDER). The known ADRs from SIDER are used to label the dataset for ML training. Using the AutoML library TPOT, ML models are trained on this dataset. Our findings indicate that ML models, even when trained with the same features as DPA methods, achieve higher recall and precision. Moreover, incorporating additional features related to drugs and events significantly boosts the performance of ML models. Analysis using the explainable AI (XAI) technique SHAP reveals that the drug name, event name, and fifth-level ATC code are the most influential features for model predictions. These ML models offer a promising alternative or supplement to conventional DPA methods for signal detection in pharmacovigilance.

One health: the impact of environment, detergents and hygiene on barrier, microbiome and allergy
Authors: Mayerhofer Hanna , Pali-Schöll Isabella 
Published: October 2024

SummaryA variety of body surfaces, such as skin and mucosal membranes—from the nasopharyngeal area to the lungs, uterus, vaginal area, and digestive tract—contain complex microbial ecosystems that are tailored to the specifics of the respective niche [1].The so-called dysbiosis—a disadvantageous change in the composition of the microbiome—is associated with the pathogenesis of a variety of diseases [2]. Gastrointestinal as well as cardiovascular, metabolic, neurodegenerative, psychological, oncological, and also allergic diseases have been linked to microbial dysbiosis. Susceptibility to allergies can be due to genetic predisposition; in addition, extrinsic factors from today’s lifestyle increasingly contribute to microbiome changes, but also to the disruption of the skin and mucosal barrier and thus to the development of allergies [3].Gisela, a fictional farmer, guides us through this review. She is representative of adults and children of all genders in industrialized countries. During her daily routine, the skin and mucosal microbiome is influenced by a variety of exogenous factors. These include everyday personal hygiene products, detergents for laundry and dishes, food, medication, animal contact, and exposure to various outdoor environments. Gisela’s daily routine will illustrate how the human microbiome and the skin barrier are modified in positive or negative ways, and how this could influence the development of allergies. Furthermore, potential measures for the prevention and management of dysbiosis will be discussed in terms of examples of alternative products and behaviors.
Preparing for Patient Care: A Pre-clerkship Curricular Thread to Improve Learners’ Knowledge, Attitudes, and Confidence Treating Patients at Risk for Suicide

Published: October 2024

AbstractSuicide is a leading cause of death. Unfortunately, stigma still surrounds depression and mental health treatment. Many health care providers are uncomfortable broaching the topic with patients. There is an urgent need to better equip future physicians to compassionately identify and treat patients at risk for suicide. To address this problem, we created a novel suicide prevention spiral curricular thread for advanced pre-clerkship medical students. Mixed methods surveys were administered before and after the curriculum. Following completion of the curriculum, learners’ confidence identifying and treating patients at risk of suicide significantly increased. Attitudes including professional confidence, therapeutic optimism, and generalist perspective measured by the Revised Depression Attitudes Questionnaire also increased, indicating reduced stigmatizing attitudes and increased knowledge and confidence. Participants reported that engaging in the standardized patient encounter was the most impactful event, although the prior events provided necessary foundational training. This study demonstrates the feasibility and effectiveness of a curricular thread approach during the pre-clerkship phase for training medical students in suicide prevention to prepare them for patient care. Other medical schools can use this framework to design and integrate suicide prevention training into their own curricula.
Ego-network characteristics moderates the interaction of structural hole and centrality on market performance: based on coopetition network
Authors: Guan Feiyang 
Published: October 2024

AbstractThis paper establishes a symmetric matrix based on the coopetition relationships among global automobile enterprises, and uses Ucinet software to obtain the visualization chart of the coopetition network of global automobile enterprises. Then, the multiple moderating effect method and two-stage least squares method are adopt to reveal the interaction between structural hole and centrality on enterprise market performance, and how the ego-network characteristics affect this interaction. The results show that structural hole and centrality have a positive interaction on market performance. Compared with high ego-network stability, the positive interaction between structural hole and centrality on enterprise market performance is stronger under the condition of low ego-network stability. And compared with low ego-network density, the positive interaction between structural hole and centrality on market performance is stronger under the condition of high ego-network density. These new findings further strengthen the connection between the overall network and ego-network.
A systematic review of therapist perspectives on cognitive behavioral therapy with gender and sexual minorities
Authors: Shali Sedigheh 
Published: October 2024

Abstract
Background
Sexual and gender minority (SGM) individuals such as those who identify as lesbian, bisexual, pansexual, transgender or nonbinary, uniquely experience heightened stress as compared to their heterosexual and cisgender cohorts. Cognitive behavioural therapy (CBT) can address the cognitive, affective and interpersonal pathways via which minority stress adversely impacts mental health among SGM individuals.

Objective
This systematic review aims to explore the qualitative evidence about the experiences of CBT therapists working with SGM individuals, focusing on the challenges they encounter and the strategies they employ to deliver effective care.

Method
Electronic searches were conducted across APA Psychnet, Web of Science, Medline, Embase, PubMed and Google Scholar using specific keywords related to SGM populations and CBT. Included studies were qualitative, published between 2000 and 2023, and focused on therapists’ experiences with SGM clients. Seven studies met the inclusion criteria and were analysed.

Results
The review identified several challenges faced by CBT therapists, including issues related to cultural competency, stigma, discrimination, and the need for culturally adapted interventions. Therapists reported difficulties in acknowledging and integrating the unique aspects of their clients' sexual and gender identities into therapy, which sometimes resulted in microaggressions and therapeutic neglect. Therapists who sought additional training and incorporated frameworks such as minority stress and intersectional stigma reported more effective therapeutic outcomes.

Conclusions
This review underscores the importance of enhancing training programs and delineating comprehensive guidelines to equip therapists with the requisite skills for providing culturally competent and individualised care to SGM clients. Despite the challenges, CBT holds promise for effectively addressing minority stress and promoting resilience among SGM populations when therapists are adequately prepared. Future studies must bridge the gap between theoretical recommendations and practical applications to improve outcomes for SGM clients.
Separating McDowell’s two Myths of the Given - or on how to best explain the conceptuality of the space of reasons
Authors: Gersel Johan 
Published: October 2024

Abstract
In his book, John McDowell on Worldly Subjectivity, Tony Cheng argues that recent changes to McDowell’s theory of perceptual justification should lead him to accept that experiences possess non-conceptual content. In this paper, I take issue with Cheng’s conclusion. Instead, I argue that McDowell should adopt Travis’s position, where experiences aren’t taken to possess content at all. I argue that we can distinguish two separate Myths of the Given in McDowell’s writings. While McDowell often seamlessly moves from one to the other, I argue that it is difficult to see how he can justify this due to his recent alterations to his position. I argue that if we reject one Myth and retain the other, then McDowell can both hold on to a version of his view that the space of reasons is the space of the conceptual, all the while he accepts Travis’s arguments to the effect that experiences are devoid of content. Finally, I consider some arguments McDowell might present against accepting Travis’s position. While these objections do not convince me, what is notable about them is that, if they are sound, then they will equally count against Cheng’s intermediary position where non-conceptual contents are ascribed to experiences. Hence, I conclude that there are no grounds on which McDowell can reasonably endorse that experiences possess non-conceptual contents. Either he should stick to his conceptualism, or he should follow Travis and reject that experiences possess contents at all.
Americans believe in the benevolence of nature, and this belief is not lower in people who have experienced natural disasters
Authors: Rozin Paul , Chen Richard , Scott Sydney E. , Cusimano Corey 
Published: October 2024

Abstract
American and European adults prefer natural products and often pay premiums to purchase natural products. They may do this because they believe natural products are better, either functionally or inherently. We present a measure that assesses belief in the ‘benevolence of nature’ across a range of products and a range of situations, including safety, sensory appeal, and effectiveness. American adults show a substantial belief in the benevolence of nature. This belief is sometimes erroneous, with participants attributing higher quality to some natural products that are in fact inferior to their artificial counterparts. In support of the belief that natural products are inherently better, many participants express a preference for a natural as opposed to an artificial product when both are stipulated to be chemically identical or to have identical effects. An original set of 24 items to measure belief in the benevolence of nature is refined into a more useful 10-item scale, and correlations with related scales are assessed. Belief in the benevolence of nature is not lower in participants who have experienced at least one natural disaster.
Sources of nanoplastic and microplastic pollution which are hidden in plain sight
Authors: Pantos Olga , Masterton Hayden , Ruffell Helena 
Published: October 2024

Abstract
Plastic pollution is pervasive in our environment, with impacts seen across ecosystems and taxa. While plastic has become an integral part of our daily lives, not all of it is readily apparent, making it challenging to effectively reduce plastic pollution. A hidden source of plastic pollution is plastic-based printing, which is used on a wide range of items including single-use products like plastic food containers and multi-use plastic items like credit cards. This also includes items that we would not consider to be sources of plastic pollution such as glass bottles with surface printing. The widespread use of this printing, therefore, results in even non-plastic items contributing to plastic pollution, potentially contaminating recycling streams and exacerbating nano- and microplastic (NMP) dispersion. Given the challenges of remediating NMP plastic pollution once it has entered the environment, prevention becomes paramount. With significant efforts underway to reduce plastic production, it is important to take a holistic approach to redesigning objects and materials to avoid false solutions, which will continue to contribute to ecosystem degradation and planetary boundary transgressions. To make meaningful progress and avoid ineffective solutions, it is imperative to consider all sources of plastic pollution, including those concealed within apparently non-plastic objects.
Democratic Equality and the Elected Avatars of the People
Authors: Shoemaker Eric 
Published: October 2024

Abstract
I argue that the use of elected political representatives undermines the political equality of citizens. Having elected representatives politically stand-in for individual constituents makes ordinary citizens the political inferiors of their representatives. This in turn creates democratically problematic social inequality between elected politicians and their constituents. I then offer an alternative to representative politicians that does not face the avatar of the people problem: representative mini-publics. Through these bodies, we can achieve a representative system without a class of political elites, where citizens share the responsibilities and powers of government as equals.

Published: October 2024

AbstractUnderstanding genetic structure and chromosomal characteristics is essential for developing effective breeding programmes and improving plant species. This research compared karyotypic features of 10 plant populations of Populus euphratica from various regions of Iran. Fresh roots grown from cuttings of the populations were used to get metaphase cells. Then several chromosomal parameters were recorded and analysed using a nested statistical model. All the studied populations were diploid, with 2n = 38 chromosomes, consisting of medium and sub-medium chromosome types. Significant differences (P ⩽ 0.01) were observed between the plant populations in chromosomal dimensions and arm ratios, suggesting chromosomal rearrangements. Chromosome lengths in the studied populations ranged from 0.69 to 3.38 μm. Intra-chromosomal index (A1) showed clear asymmetrical differences between the plant populations. Furthermore, using Stebbins's standards, the studied populations classified as 1A and 1B classes, demonstrated more asymmetry than those categorized as 1B and 2B, respectively. Cytological differences between the plant populations, collected from different parts of the country, showed that chromosome structural rearrangements are responsible for the speciation and adaption of the species against the mentioned variable ecological conditions and play a key role in response to diverse climatic and geographical conditions.
Alleviative effect of iron chlorin e6 on isoproturon phytotoxicity to wheat

Published: October 2024

AbstractIsoproturon phytotoxicity to wheat (Triticum aestivum L.) is a worry for many farmers in chemical control of weeds in wheat fields, especially in subzero weather conditions. Iron chlorin e6 (ICe6), a new plant growth regulator, has been reported to enhance crop stress resistance to alleviate damage caused by stress; however, it is not clear whether ICe6 has an alleviative effect on isoproturon phytotoxicity to wheat. We determined the alleviative effect of ICe6 on isoproturon phytotoxicity to wheat, and 0.018 g ai ha−1 was the optimal dose. Meanwhile, we also studied the photosynthetic pigment content, photosynthetic parameters, oxidative stress indicators, and antioxidant enzyme activity of wheat treated with the three different treatments. We found that the photosynthetic pigment content, antioxidant enzyme activity, and photosynthesis of wheat damaged by isoproturon were significantly lower than those of the control, and the hydrogen peroxide (H2O2) and malondialdehyde (MDA) content increased. These results indicate that isoproturon stress significantly weakened the photosynthetic and antioxidant capacity of wheat. The photosynthetic pigment content, photosynthetic parameters (excluding intercellular CO2 concentration), and antioxidant enzyme activity of isoproturon+ICe6– treated wheat were significantly higher than those of isoproturon-treated wheat. The H2O2 and MDA content was significantly lower than that of isoproturon-treated wheat. These results indicate that ICe6 treatment maintained the photosynthetic pigment content of wheat and relatively improved photosynthetic capacity, allowing photosynthesis to proceed normally. ICe6 treatment also limits the decrease in antioxidant enzyme activity, effectively clearing excess reactive oxygen species and ultimately alleviating membrane lipid peroxidation damage. In summary, ICe6 not only enhances stress resistance and increases yield in crops such as soybean [Glycine max (L.) Merr.] and canola (Brassica napus L.), but also has an alleviating effect on the isoproturon phytotoxicity to wheat, which is manifested by the improvement of photosynthetic and antioxidant abilities, ultimately leading to an increase in wheat shoot height and shoot fresh weight.
