Published: August 2024

IntroductionThe 2030 Agenda and the principles of Corporate Social Responsibility (CSR) define companies and public authorities as agents for social change sharing objectives such as promotion of health, personal development and social engagement, among others. Care homes for the older adult are an example of organizations that should be particularly aware of these priorities. Since they work with vulnerable groups, collaboration with the families is essential in ensuring residents' wellbeing.MethodsThe objective of this study is to analyse the factors that condition the satisfaction of relatives of residents in a care home for the older adult located in a rural environment in the province of Huesca (Spain).Results and discussionThe 51 relatives interviewed rated the following points very positively: location and accessibility, food service, medical resources, communication with the staff and management team. A high percentage, however, did not know about the channels for volunteer work and institutional involvement. Some psychosocial indicators related to families' interaction and communication with the staff and their potential involvement in the dynamics of the institution have considerable weight in how they explain their satisfaction. These results may lead to new lines of research and intervention that contribute to improving the quality of this type of resources and their commitment to the Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs) and social responsibility.

IntroductionThe COVID-19 pandemic has had a wide-ranging impact on mental health. Diverse populations experienced the pandemic differently, highlighting pre-existing inequalities and creating new challenges in recovery. Understanding the effects across diverse populations and identifying protective factors is crucial for guiding future pandemic preparedness. The objectives of this study were to (1) describe the specific COVID-19-related impacts associated with general well-being, (2) identify protective factors associated with better mental health outcomes, and (3) assess racial disparities in pandemic impact and protective factors.MethodsA cross-sectional survey of Louisiana residents was conducted in summer 2020, yielding a sample of 986 Black and White adults. The exposure was overall pandemic impact, measured using the Epidemic-Pandemic Impacts Inventory, and the outcome was general well-being (GWB), measured with the General Well-Being Schedule. Potential protective factors included social support, resilience, and social cohesion. Linear regression models were constructed to examine the association between pandemic impact and GWB, with each protective factor added as an effect modifier. These relationships were further assessed for differences by race.ResultsPandemic stressors can be grouped into social, health, work, finance, and family-related impacts. Black persons displayed higher levels of pandemic impact as well as lower levels of social support, resilience, and social cohesion (p &lt; 0.0001), highlighting existing racial disparities, though Black respondents and White respondents exhibited no differences in general-well being. Social support, resilience, and social cohesion were identified as protective factors for both groups (p &lt; 0.0001, respectively), but these protective effects deteriorated as pandemic impacts increased. The addition of a pandemic impact by race interaction term was also significant in each model (p = 0.0020, p &lt; 0.0001, and p = 0.0095, respectively) and showed that the protective effects of social support and resilience deteriorated more rapidly for Black persons than White persons, while the protective effects of social cohesion deteriorated more rapidly for White persons than Black persons.DiscussionThis study emphasizes the importance of psychosocial resources in buffering the mental health impact of pandemics. It also suggests greater vulnerability for marginalized communities lacking access to crucial support systems. Findings underscore the need for targeted interventions that bolster access to social support, promote resilience, and strengthen social cohesion, particularly within minority groups. Additionally, policymakers should consider proactive measures to assist in recovery and mitigate the disproportionate impact of future crises on vulnerable populations.

Published: August 2024

ObjectiveThis study aimed to describe the successful identification and treatment of severe hyperkalemia, cardiac arrhythmia, rhabdomyolysis, and acute kidney injury (AKI) in a domestic cat that underwent general anesthesia for abdominal exploratory surgery. The definitive underlying cause remains unknown; however, a reaction to propofol is suspected.Case summaryA 6-month-old intact male domestic short-hair cat underwent general anesthesia and developed severe intraoperative rhabdomyolysis, hyperkalemia, ventricular fibrillation, and AKI during surgery despite a documented mild hypokalemia and normal creatinine before inducing anesthesia. Propofol was administered as part of the anesthetic protocol. The patient was resuscitated successfully and responded well to advanced medical intervention. The hyperkalemia and AKI were resolved within less than 24 h from surgery and rhabdomyolysis was resolved at the time of recheck 5 days later.New or unique information providedWhile previously suspected in dogs, to the authors’ knowledge, propofol-related infusion syndrome (PRIS) has not been reported in domestic cats. Veterinary professionals should be aware that drug-induced intraoperative rhabdomyolysis and hyperkalemia can develop unexpectedly and should remain a differential for acute cardiac arrhythmias or cardiac arrest and AKI.

ObjectivesIn the face of escalating global aridification, this study examines the complex relationship between climate variability, air pollution, natural disasters, and the prevalence of cardiovascular disease (CVD) and diabetes mellitus (DM) in arid regions.MethodsThe study conducted a scoping review of multiple databases using JBI guidelines and included 74 studies.ResultsThe results show that acute myocardial infarction (n = 20) and stroke (n = 13) are the primary CVDs affected by these factors, particularly affecting older adults (n = 34) and persons with hypertension (n = 3). Elevated air temperature and heat waves emerge as critical risk factors for CVD, exacerbating various cardiovascular mechanisms. Atmospheric pollutants and natural disasters increase this risk. Indirect effects of disasters amplify risk factors such as socioeconomic vulnerability (n = 4), inadequate medical care (n = 3), stress (n = 3), and poor diet (n = 2), increasing CVD and DM risk.ConclusionThe study underscores the need for nations to adhere to the Paris Agreement, advocating for reduced air pollutants, resilient environments, and collaborative, multidisciplinary research to develop targeted health interventions to mitigate the adverse effects of climate, pollution, and natural disasters.
An Efficient and Accurate Ground-Based Synthetic Aperture Radar (GB-SAR) Real-Time Imaging Scheme Based on Parallel Processing Mode and Architecture
Authors: Tan Yunxin , Li Guangju , Zhang Chun , Gan Weiming 
Published: August 2024

When performing high-resolution imaging with ground-based synthetic aperture radar (GB-SAR) systems, the data collected and processed are vast and complex, imposing higher demands on the real-time performance and processing efficiency of the imaging system. Yet a very limited number of studies have been conducted on the real-time processing method of GB-SAR monitoring data. This paper proposes a real-time imaging scheme based on parallel processing models, optimizing each step of the traditional ωK imaging algorithm in parallel. Several parallel optimization schemes are proposed for the computationally intensive and complex interpolation part, including dynamic parallelism, the Group-Nstream processing model, and the Fthread-Group-Nstream processing model. The Fthread-Group-Nstream processing model utilizes Fthread, Group, and Nstream for the finer-grained processing of monitoring data, reducing the impact of the nested depth on the algorithm’s performance in dynamic parallelism and alleviating the issue of serial execution within the Group-Nstream processing model. This scheme has been successfully applied in a synthetic aperture radar imaging system, achieving excellent imaging results and accuracy. The speedup ratio can reach 52.14, and the relative errors in amplitude and phase are close to 0, validating the effectiveness and practicality of the proposed schemes. This paper addresses the lack of research on the real-time processing of GB-SAR monitoring data, providing a reliable monitoring method for GB-SAR deformation monitoring.

A novel aerobic denitrifying bacterium Bacillus cereus J1 was isolated from a sewage treatment plant. Its characteristics under two distinct nitrogen sources were systematically investigated. According to the results of whole-genome sequencing, we inferred that strain J1 removes nitrogen through processes such as aerobic denitrification, dissimilatory nitrate reduction to ammonium, and ammonium assimilation. The degradation process of COD and total inorganic nitrogen (TIN) correlated to the zero-order degradation kinetics equation, and the maximum removal rate of NO3−−N reached 3.17 mg/L/h and that of NH4+−N was 3.79 mg/L/h. Utilizing single-factor experiments and response surface methodology, the optimal conditions for nitrate removal were determined as a shaking speed of 115 rpm, COD/nitrogen mass (C/N ratio) of 12.25, and salinity of 3.44 g/L, with the C/N ratio exerting the most significant influence. Similarly, for the maximum ammonium removal, the ideal conditions involved a shaking speed of 133 rpm, C/N ratio of 29, and salinity of 13.30 g/L, with the shaking speed exerting the most significant influence. These findings demonstrate that large amounts of ammonium and nitrate can be quickly removed with the help of Bacillus cereus J1, indicating that strain J1 may be applied to alleviate nitrogen pollution in aquatic environments.
