AbstractIntroductionThe QDOT MICROTM Ablation Catheter is a next‐generation ablation catheter that allows for high‐power ablation up to 90 watts.MethodsWe aimed to assess AE associated with the QDOT MICROTM catheter using the MAUDE database. A MAUDE database search was conducted on May 25, 2024, to capture all AEs (since FDA approval) associated with this ablation catheter.ResultsA total of 302 AEs from November 23, 2022, to April 30, 2024, were reported including 148 (49%) catheter‐related issues and 154 (51%) clinical complications. Among the catheter‐related issues, physical catheter damage (74.3%, n = 110) was most common, followed by communication or display issue (10.8%, n = 16), irrigation issue (9.5%, n = 14), signal issue or artifact (3.4%, n = 5), and inaccurate temperature measurement (2.0%, n = 3). Regarding clinical complications, the most common AE was pericardial effusion (43.5%, n = 67), followed by char formation (11.7%, n = 18), catheter thrombosis (7.1%, n = 11), stroke (7.1%, n = 11), pericarditis (7.1%, n = 11), esophageal complications (6.5%, n = 10), phrenic nerve palsy (3.9%, n = 6), cardiac arrest (3.9%, n = 6), significant AV block (3.9%, n = 6), pulmonary vein stenosis (3.2%, n = 5), coronary artery spasm (1.3%, n = 2), and pulmonary embolism (0.6%, n = 1). There were 11 deaths (five related to esophageal complications, five related to cardiac arrest, and one related to pericardial effusion with cardiac tamponade).ConclusionAs high‐power ablation strategy with novel ablation catheters is becoming more widely utilized, operators must be aware of potential catheter‐related issues and clinical complications that may arise. More data are needed to further evaluate risks of these complications to improve the catheter's safety and efficacy.

Published: July 2024

AbstractRationalePsycho‐education application is effective in reducing the risk of postpartum depression (PPD) and increasing the level of social support. The quality of care increases with the implementation of Watson's Theory of Human Caring Model (WTHCM)‐based care programs to reduce the risk of PPD.AimsThis study aimed to evaluate the impact of a psycho‐educational intervention based on the Watson model on pregnant women in preventing PPD. Additionally, the effect of the psycho‐educational intervention on women's perceptions of social support in relation to PPD was evaluated.MethodsA randomized‐controlled pretest–posttest control group intervention study design was used. The sample consisted of 91 women (intervention:45, control:46) in their 20th to 32nd gestational week. While all women received routine care at the family health centre the intervention group was additionally applied a psycho‐educational intervention based on the WTHCM. Chi‐square and t‐test analysis methods were performed to determine the homogeneity of the intervention and control groups. The t‐test method was used to compare group scores. Multiple regression analysis was employed to compare multiple variables.ResultsFollowing the psycho‐educational intervention, the total Edinburgh Postpartum Depression Scale of the intervention group was found significantly lower than that of the control group, but the total and friend subscale scores on the Multidimensional Scale of Perceived Social Support (MSPSS) were higher (p < 0.05). The regression analysis results indicate that friend and family support, which are sub‐dimensions of the MSPSS, exhibited a significant decrease in both groups. Furthermore, this decline had a greater impact on reducing the PPD level in the intervention group compared to the control group. It was found that while the support of the significant other sub‐dimension reduced the PPD level in the intervention group, it did not make a significant difference in the control group.ConclusionsThe Watson's Theory of Human Caring Model‐based psycho‐educational intervention program decreased women's risk of PPD and increased their social support levels. It is recommended to use approaches that include psycho‐educational intervention in postpartum midwifery care.

AbstractAimTo describe the perspectives of patients using digital services on the digital counselling competence of healthcare professionals.DesignA descriptive qualitative interview study.MethodsThe analysed data were collected in Finland during the spring of 2023 via 11 individual, semi‐structured interviews from participants who had received video‐mediated counselling. The interviews were carried out online through Microsoft Teams and adhered to an interview guide using main and ancillary questions. The data were analysed using inductive content analysis.ResultsThe patients' perspectives of healthcare professionals' digital counselling competence were related to five categories: (1) competence in preparing for video‐mediated counselling, (2) digital competence in implementing the video‐mediated counselling, (3) competence in interacting with the patient during the video‐mediated counselling, (4) competence in supporting the patient's self‐management in video‐mediated counselling and (5) competence in self‐development as a digital counsellor.ConclusionThe results of this study indicate that healthcare professionals need to possess a wide range of digital counselling competencies when providing video‐mediated counselling. This study thus lays the groundwork for future studies of patients' perspectives of healthcare professionals' digital counselling competence.Implications for the Profession and/or Patient CareThe results of this study can be used to develop healthcare professionals' digital counselling competence and patient‐centered care. The presented insights can also be used to map further research topics.Reporting MethodThe Consolidated criteria for reporting qualitative research (COREQ) checklist was used when reporting the results.Patient or Public ContributionPatients who had experience in using digital services participated in the data collection of this study.Impact

What problem did the study address? Healthcare professionals may well need to develop new competencies as counselling is increasingly moving to digital environments.

What were the main findings? The main areas of digital counselling competence that emerged from the patients' perspectives were competence in preparing for video‐mediated counselling, digital competence, competence in interacting with the patient, competence in supporting self‐management and competence in self‐development as a digital counsellor.

Where and on whom will the research have an impact? The research can be used to build and develop healthcare professionals' digital counselling competence, as well as improve the delivery of patient‐centered care.

AbstractIsolated corundum grains and corundum ± Mg‐deltalumite [(Al,Mg)(Al,◻)2O4] ± hibonite assemblages were investigated in the CH3.0 metal‐rich carbonaceous chondrite Sayh al Uhaymir (SaU) 290. Although very refractory inclusions containing abundant Zr‐ and Sc‐rich oxides and silicates, hibonite, grossite, or perovskite have been previously described in CH chondrites, this is the first discovery of corundum and Mg‐deltalumite in CHs and the first discovery of Mg‐deltalumite in nature. Magnesium‐deltalumite can be indexed by the Fd3m spinel‐type structure and gives a perfect fit to the synthetic Al‐rich spinel cells. Corundum‐Mg‐deltalumite grains, 5–20 μm in size, are occasionally rimmed by a thin layer of hibonite replacing corundum. Some corundum grains contain tiny inclusions of ultrarefractory Zr,Sc‐rich minerals and platinum‐group element (PGE) nuggets. All corundum, hibonite, and Mg‐deltalumite grains studied have 16O‐rich compositions (average Δ17O ± 2SD = −22 ± 3‰). Two corundum grains show evidence for significant mass‐dependent fractionation of oxygen isotopes: Δ18O ~ +34‰ and ~ +19‰. We suggest that the SaU 290 corundum‐rich objects were formed by evaporation and/or condensation in a hot nebular region close to the proto‐sun where the ambient temperature was close to the condensation temperature of corundum. A corundum grain with tiny inclusions of Zr‐ and Sc‐rich phases and PGE metal nuggets recorded formation temperatures higher than the condensation temperature of corundum. Two corundum‐rich objects with highly fractionated oxygen isotopes must have crystallized from a melt that experienced evaporation. Corundum grains corroded by hibonite recorded gas–solid interaction in this region during its cooling. The Mg‐deltalumite ± corundum ± hibonite objects were formed by rapid crystallization of high‐temperature (>2000°C) refractory melts. The lack of minerals with condensation temperatures below those of corundum and hibonite in the SaU 290 corundum‐rich objects suggests that after formation, these objects were rapidly removed from the hot nebular region by disk wind and/or by turbulent diffusion and disk spreading.

AbstractAimTo study COVID‐19 vaccination status in kidney transplant recipients (KTRs), reasons for incomplete vaccination and the clinical impact of vaccination on patient outcomes.MethodsA single‐centre retrospective analysis of KTR (n = 543) conducted between 1970 and December 2022. Data included baseline demographics, number of vaccinations, reason for incomplete vaccination and patient outcomes following COVID‐19 infection. A completed course of COVID‐19 vaccination was defined as four or more vaccine doses. Exclusion criteria: those deceased prior December 2019, managed by another health service, failed graft, or deceased secondary to non‐COVID cause.Results273 of 543 patients met inclusion criteria. Mean age was 58.1 ± 12.2 years, 66% were male. 58.2% of patients were fully vaccinated, 22.7% received three doses, 7.7% received two doses, 0.7% received one dose, 0.7% received zero doses, and 10% incomplete records. The most common reasons for incomplete vaccination were COVID‐19 infection, concern for side effects, and patient unawareness of booster recommendations. Vaccination uptake was greater in Australian born patients compared with those born overseas, odds ratio 0.40 (95% CI 0.23–0.69). KTR with incomplete vaccination had poorer outcomes, higher rate of AKI, long COVID, and increased hospitalization.ConclusionThe majority of KTR were fully vaccinated. KTR with incomplete vaccination status had poorer outcomes with COVID‐19 infection and other issues. Patient education is a major area for improvement targeting patients born overseas and better information regarding side effects. Potential interventions need to address improved communication, cultural relevancy, and language.image
A facial lentiginous nevus with atypical clinical features in a child: The importance of in vivo reflectance confocal microscopic findings

Published: July 2024

AbstractA 14‐year‐old girl presented with a facial‐pigmented lesion suspicious of melanoma clinically and dermoscopically. In vivo, reflectance confocal microscopy (RCM) findings excluded melanoma by revealing typical epidermal honeycomb and cobblestone patterns. Well‐defined follicular contours were seen at the dermal–epidermal junction; there were no elongated, “medusa head‐like” follicular protrusions or folliculotropism, which are classical findings seen in lentigo maligna. With this report, we aim to demonstrate the significance of utilizing RCM technology in difficult to diagnose lentiginous pigmented lesions.
No association between error‐related ERPs and trait anxiety in a nonclinical sample: Convergence across analytical methods including mass‐univariate statistics
Authors: Chen Zelin , Itier Roxane J. 
Published: July 2024

AbstractEnhanced error monitoring, as indexed by increased amplitude of the error‐related negativity (ERN) event‐related potential (ERP) component, has been suggested to reflect a vulnerability neuro‐marker of anxiety disorders. Another error‐related ERP component is the error positivity (Pe), which reflects late‐stage error processing. The associations between heightened ERN and Pe amplitudes and anxiety levels in the nonclinical population have been inconsistent. In this preregistered study, we examined the association between anxiety, ERN, and Pe, using different analytical methods (mass‐univariate analyses, MUAs and conventional analyses), self‐reported anxiety scales (STAI and STICSA), and trial numbers (all correct trials and equal numbers of correct and error trials). In a sample of 82 healthy adults, both conventional and MUAs demonstrated a robust enhancement of the ERN and Pe to errors relative to the correct‐response ERPs. However, the mass‐univariate approach additionally unveiled a wider array of electrodes and a longer effect duration for this error enhancement. Across the analytic methods, the results showed a lack of consistent correlation between trait anxiety and error‐related ERPs. Findings were not modulated by trial numbers, analyses, or anxiety scales. The present results suggest a lack of enhancement of error monitoring by anxious traits in individuals with subclinical anxiety and those with clinical anxiety but without a clinical diagnosis. Importantly, the absence of such correlation questions the validity of the ERN as a neural marker for anxiety disorders. Future studies that investigate neuro‐markers of anxiety may explore alternative task designs and employ robust statistics to provide a more comprehensive understanding of anxiety vulnerability.
Shelter from the storm: The growing threats from climate change to housing in the United States
Authors: Fischer Mary J. 
Published: July 2024

AbstractClimate change and its related impacts are fast becoming the dominant force in the housing market. The fundamental role that housing plays in people's lives makes these effects particularly pernicious, often impacting employment, school attendance, undermining physical and mental health, disrupting social networks, and contributing to food insecurity. The complexity of addressing these issues is compounded by the cyclical and reciprocal relationships among these factors, with housing inequalities frequently lying at the core and climate change impacts percolating throughout. I introduce the framework of acute, secondary, and pre‐emptive/reactive impacts to help understand these mechanisms. To understand and contextualize these connections, I provide a brief overview racial segregation in the United States and related inequalities that place some individuals, groups, and communities at greater risk. Other key sources of housing instability in the United States that are often closely related to housing segregation include lack of affordable housing, growing income inequality, housing discrimination, evictions, and foreclosures, all of which contribute to unequal housing outcomes. These factors are explored using the temporal framework to discuss their connection to climate change, which is in and of itself a major force of housing instability.
Intra‐day variations in volar forearm skin hydration
Authors: Mayrovitz Harvey N. 
Published: July 2024

AbstractBackgroundSkin hydration (SKH) measurements are used for multiple purposes: to study skin physiology, to clinically investigate dermatological issues, and to assess localized skin water in pathologies like diabetes and lymphedema. Often the volar forearm is measured at various times of day (TOD). This report aims to characterize intra‐day variations in volar forearm SKH to provide guidance on expected TOD dependence.Materials and methodsForty medical students (20 male) self‐measured tissue dielectric constant (TDC) on their non‐dominant forearm in triplicate as an index of local skin tissue water every 2 h starting at 0800 and ending at 2400 h. All were trained and pre‐certified in the procedure and had whole‐body fat (FAT%) and water (H2O%) measured. Day average TDC (TDCAVG) was determined as the average of all time points expressed as mean ± SD.ResultsMales versus females had similar ages (25.1 ± 2.2 years vs. 25.1 ± 1.5 years), higher H2O% (56.6 ± 5.0 vs. 51.8 ± 5.7, p = 0.002), and higher TDCAVG (32.7 ± 4.1 vs. 28.5 ± 5.1, p = 0.008). TDC values were not significantly impacted by H2O% or FAT%. Female TDC exhibited a significant decreasing trend from morning to night (p = 0.004); male TDC showed no trend.ConclusionSkin water assessed by TDC shows some intra‐day variations for females and males but with quite different temporal patterns. Clinical relevance relates to the confidence level associated with skin hydration estimates when measured at different times of day during normal clinic hours which, based on the present data, is expected to be around 5% for both males and females.
Mapping urban large‐area advertising structures using drone imagery and deep learning‐based spatial data analysis
Authors: Ptak Bartosz , Kraft Marek 
Published: July 2024

AbstractThe problem of visual pollution is a growing concern in urban areas, characterized by intrusive visual elements that can lead to overstimulation and distraction, obstructing views and causing distractions for drivers. Large‐area advertising structures, such as billboards, while being effective advertisement mediums, are significant contributors to visual pollution. Illegally placed or huge billboards can also exacerbate those issues and pose safety hazards. Therefore, there is a pressing need for effective and efficient methods to identify and manage advertising structures in urban areas. This article proposes a deep‐learning‐based system for automatically detecting billboards using consumer‐grade unmanned aerial vehicles. Thanks to the geospatial information from the drone's sensors, the position of billboards can be estimated. Side by side with the system, we share the very first dataset for billboard detection from a drone view. It contains 1361 images supplemented with spatial metadata, together with 5210 annotations.

Published: July 2024

AbstractThere are no published reports describing the anatomic variations of the phrenicoabdominal (PhAbd) veins in cats. The aim of this study was to evaluate the anatomic variations of the PhAbd veins in cats without adrenal disease. This is an anatomic study. Abdominal CT images of cats acquired from January 2021 to February 2023 were retrospectively reviewed. Inclusion criteria were the presence of pre‐ and postcontrast CT images of the abdomen and the absence of any abdominal diseases that compromise the left and right PhAbd veins visualization. A total of 128 cats were included. Three different vascular anatomic variations were found in the distal pericaval segment of the left phrenicoabdominal (LPhAbd) vein. In the first type, found in 65 cases (50.8%), the LPhAbd vein drained directly into the caudal vena cava. In the second type defined IIa, found in 25 cases (19.5%), the LPhAbd vein drained into the distal third of the left renal vein, less than 5 mm from its opening into the caudal vena cava. In the third type defined IIb, found in 38 cases (29.7%), the LPhAbd vein drained into the distal third of the left renal vein, more than 5 mm from its opening into the caudal vena cava. The right phrenicoabdominal vein had a consistent path and drained into the caudal vena cava in all cases. The knowledge of these vascular variations is expected to help the surgeon during adrenalectomy due to masses with vascular invasion in cats.
Genomic characterization of the bacterial phylum
Candidatus
Effluviviacota, a cosmopolitan member of the global seep microbiome
Authors: Su Lei , Marshall Ian P. G. , Teske Andreas P. , Yao Huiqiang , Li Jiangtao 
Published: July 2024

ABSTRACT

The microbial communities of marine seep sediments contain unexplored physiological and phylogenetic diversity. Here, we examined 30 bacterial metagenome-assembled genomes (MAGs) from cold seeps in the South China Sea, the Indian Ocean, the Scotian Basin, and the Gulf of Mexico, as well as from deep-sea hydrothermal sediments in the Guaymas Basin, Gulf of California. Phylogenetic analyses of these MAGs indicate that they form a distinct phylum-level bacterial lineage, which we propose as a new phylum,
Candidatus
Effluviviacota, in reference to its preferential occurrence at diverse seep areas. Based on tightly clustered high-quality MAGs, we propose two new genus-level candidatus taxa,
Candidatus
Effluvivivax and
Candidatus
Effluvibates. Genomic content analyses indicate that
Candidatus
Effluviviacota are chemoheterotrophs that harbor the Embden–Meyerhof–Parnas glycolysis pathway. They gain energy by fermenting organic substrates. Additionally, they display potential capabilities for the degradation of cellulose, hemicellulose, starch, xylan, and various peptides. Extracellular anaerobic respiration appears to rely on metals as electron acceptors, with electron transfer primarily mediated by multiheme cytochromes and by a flavin-based extracellular electron transfer (EET) mechanism that involves NADH-quinone oxidoreductase-demethylmenaquinone-synthesizing enzymes, uncharacterized membrane proteins, and flavin-binding proteins, also known as the NUO-DMK-EET-FMN complex. The heterogeneity within the
Ca
. Effluviviacota phylum suggests varying roles in energy metabolism among different genera. While NUO-DMK-EET-FMN electron transfer has been reported predominantly in Gram-positive bacteria, it is now identified in
Ca
. Effluviviacota as well. We detected the presence of genes associated with bacterial microcompartments in
Ca
. Effluviviacota, which can promote specific metabolic processes and protect the cytosol from toxic intermediates.

IMPORTANCE

The newly discovered bacterial phylum
Candidatus
Effluviviacota is widespread across diverse seepage ecosystems, marine environments, and freshwater environments, with a notable preference for cold seeps. While maintaining an average abundance of approximately 1% in the global gene catalog of cold seep habitats, it has not hitherto been characterized. The metabolic versatility of
Ca
. Effluviviacota in anaerobic carbon, hydrogen, and metal cycling aligns with its prevalence in anoxic niches, with a preference for cold seep environments. Variations in metabolic potential between
Ca
. Effluvivivax and
Ca
. Effluvibates may contribute to shaping their respective habitat distributions.
