Published: June 2024

BackgroundMalignant pleural effusion (MPE) is prevalent among cancer patients, indicating pleural metastasis and predicting poor prognosis. However, accurately identifying MPE in clinical settings is challenging. The aim of this study was to establish an innovative nomogram-derived model based on clinical indicators and serum metal ion levels to identify MPE.MethodsFrom July 2020 to May 2022, 428 patients diagnosed with pleural effusion (PE) were consecutively recruited. Comprehensive demographic details, clinical symptoms, imaging data, pathological information, and laboratory results, including serum metal ion levels, were systematically collected. The nomogram was created by incorporating the most significant predictors identified through LASSO and multivariate logistic regression analysis. The predictors were assigned weighted points based on their respective regression coefficients, allowing for the calculation of a total score that corresponds to the probability of MPE. Internal validation using bootstrapping techniques assessed the nomogram’s performance, including calibration, discrimination, and clinical applicability.ResultsSeven key variables were identified using LASSO regression and multiple regression analysis, including dyspnea, fever, X-ray/CT compatible with malignancy, pleural carcinoembryonic antigen(pCEA), serum neuron-specific enolase(sNSE), serum carcinoembryonic antigen(sCEA), and pleural lactate dehydrogenase(pLDH). Internal validation underscored the superior performance of our model (AUC=0.940). Decision curve analysis (DCA) analysis demonstrated substantial net benefit across a probability threshold range &gt; 1%. Additionally, serum calcium and copper levels were significantly higher, while serum zinc levels were significantly lower in MPE patients compared to benign pleural effusion (BPE) patients.ConclusionThis study effectively developed a user-friendly and reliable MPE identification model incorporating seven markers, aiding in the classification of PE subtypes in clinical settings. Furthermore, our study highlights the clinical value of serum metal ions in distinguishing malignant pleural effusion from BPE. This significant advancement provides essential tools for physicians to accurately diagnose and treat patients with MPE.

IntroductionDoping remains a persistent concern in sports, compromising fair competition. The Athlete Biological Passport (ABP) has been a standard anti-doping measure, but confounding factors challenge its effectiveness. Our study introduces an artificial intelligence-driven approach for identifying potential doping suspicious, utilizing the Athlete’s Performance Passport (APP), which integrates both demographic profiles and performance data, among elite female weightlifters.MethodsAnalyzing publicly available performance data in female weightlifting from 1998 to 2020, along with demographic information, encompassing 17,058 entities, we categorized weightlifters by age, body weight (BW) class, and performance levels. Documented anti-doping rule violations (ADRVs) cases were also retained. We employed AI-powered algorithms, including XGBoost, Multilayer Perceptron (MLP), and an Ensemble model, which integrates XGBoost and MLP, to identify doping suspicions based on the dataset we obtained.ResultsOur findings suggest a potential doping inclination in female weightlifters in their mid-twenties, and the sanctioned prevalence was the highest in the top 1% performance level and then decreased thereafter. Performance profiles and sanction trends across age groups and BW classes reveal consistently superior performances in sanctioned cases. The Ensemble model showcased impressive predictive performance, achieving a 53.8% prediction rate among the weightlifters sanctioned in the 2008, 2012, and 2016 Olympics. This demonstrated the practical application of the Athlete’s Performance Passport (APP) in identifying potential doping suspicions.DiscussionOur study pioneers an AI-driven APP approach in anti-doping, offering a proactive and efficient methodology. The APP, coupled with advanced AI algorithms, holds promise in revolutionizing the efficiency and objectivity of doping tests, providing a novel avenue for enhancing anti-doping measures in elite female weightlifting and potentially extending to diverse sports. We also address the limitation of a constrained set of APPs, advocating for the development of a more accessible and enriched APP system for robust anti-doping practices.

Published: June 2024

BackgroundThis study investigated the central symptom within the depression network and examined the relationship between social activities and depressive symptoms among migrant middle-aged and older adults in China.MethodsWe analyzed data from 1,926 migrants aged 45 and older, derived from the 2018 China Health and Retirement Longitudinal Study (CHARLS). Using network analysis, we identified the central depressive symptom and assessed the association between various social activities and depressive symptoms.ResultsNetwork analysis revealed that depressed mood was the most central symptom. Regarding mitigation of depressive symptoms, informal social activities predominantly influenced positive emotions and somatic symptoms. Formal activities were mainly revealed through positive emotions. Solitary activities were manifested primarily through positive emotions and somatic symptoms. In addition, informal and solitary activities showed a stronger correlation with the alleviation of depressive symptoms compared to formal activities.ConclusionThe findings underscore the importance of addressing depressed mood in treating depression among migrant middle-aged and older adults. Recognizing the differential impacts of various social activities can aid in the development of customized prevention and intervention strategies aimed at enhancing the mental well-being of this demographic in China.

ObjectiveFacial emotion recognition (FER) is a fundamental social skill essential for adaptive social behaviors, emotional development, and overall well-being. FER impairments have been linked to various mental disorders, making it a critical transdiagnostic mechanism influencing the development and trajectory of mental disorders. FER has also been found to play a role in the transgenerational transmission of mental disorders, with the majority of research suggesting FER impairments in children of parents with a mental illness (COPMI). Previous research primarily concentrated on COPMI of parents with internalizing disorders, which does not cover the full spectrum of outpatient mental health service populations. Furthermore, research focuses on varying components of FER by using different assessment paradigms, making it challenging to compare study results. To address these gaps, we comprehensively investigated FER abilities in COPMI using multiple tasks varying in task characteristics.MethodsWe included 189 children, 77 COPMI and 112 children of parents without a diagnosed mental illness (COPWMI), aged 6 to 16 years. We assessed FER using three tasks with varying task demands: an emotional Go/NoGo task, a morphing task, and a task presenting short video sequences depicting different emotions. We fitted separate two-level hierarchical Bayesian models (to account for sibling pairs in our sample) for reaction times and accuracy rates for each task. Good model fit was assured by comparing models using varying priors.ResultsContrary to our expectations, our results revealed no general FER deficit in COPMI compared to COPWMI. The Bayesian models fitted for accuracy in the morphing task and Go/NoGo task yielded small yet significant effects. However, Bayes factors fitted for the models suggested that these effects could be due to random variations or noise in the data.ConclusionsOur study does not support FER impairments as a general feature of COPMI. Instead, individual factors, such as the type of parental disorder and the timing of its onset, may play a crucial role in influencing FER development. Future research should consider these factors, taking into account the diverse landscape of parental mental disorders.

Published: June 2024

BackgroundAdolescents living with HIV (ALHIV) lag behind younger children and adults in the achievement of HIV care and treatment targets for HIV epidemic control. Treatment outcomes for adolescents may be influenced by their experiences with the support provided in HIV programs. We report on the experiences of virally unsuppressed adolescents and their caregivers with the current support in primary healthcare settings in Namibia.MethodsA qualitative descriptive and exploratory study was conducted in 13 public primary healthcare facilities in Windhoek, Namibia. A total of 25 in-depth interviews were conducted with unsuppressed adolescents (n = 14) and their caregivers (n = 11) between August and September 2023. The audio-recorded interviews were transcribed verbatim, and uploaded into ATLAS.ti software, and subjected to thematic content analysis.FindingsThree main support domains for the unsuppressed adolescents emerged from our analysis, namely: psychosocial, clinical and care, and socioeconomic support. The psychosocial support was delivered through peer support (teen clubs and treatment supporters) and enhanced adherence counselling mostly. The clinical and care support included implementing adolescent-friendly HIV services, differentiated service delivery approaches, and caregivers and healthcare worker care support for improved ART adherence, clinic attendance and continuous engagement in care. Socioeconomic support was provided for nutritional support, transport to access clinics, and school supplies, as well as income-generating projects.ConclusionPsychosocial, clinical and care, and socioeconomic support are key elements in addressing the needs of adolescents challenged with achieving viral suppression. Health systems may benefit from whole-of-society and whole-of-government approaches to meet the needs of ALHIV that are beyond the scope of health service delivery such as nutritional, education and socioeconomic influences on both the health and well-being of ALHIV.

Authors: Khandagale Dhanashri D. , Wang Sea-Fue 
Published: June 2024

In recent years, there has been a significant interest in the advancement of electrochemical sensing platforms to detect antipyretic drugs with high sensitivity and selectivity. The electrochemical determination of acetaminophen (PCT) was studied with strontium molybdate with a functionalized carbon nanotube (SrMoO4@f-CNF) nanocomposite. The SrMoO4@f-CNF nanocomposite was produced by a facial hydrothermal followed by sonochemical treatment, resulting in a significant enhancement in the PCT determination. The sonochemical process was applied to incorporate SrMoO4 nanoparticles over f-CNF, enabling a network-like structure. Moreover, the produced SrMoO4@f-CNF composite structural, morphological, and spectroscopic properties were confirmed with XRD, TEM, and XPS characterizations. The synergistic effect between SrMoO4 and f-CNF contributes to the lowering of the charge transfer resistance (Rct=85 Ω·cm2), a redox potential of Epc=0.15 V and Epa=0.30 V (vs. Ag/AgCl), and a significant limit of detection (1.2 nM) with a wide response range of 0.01–28.48 µM towards the PCT determination. The proposed SrMoO4@f-CNF sensor was studied with differential pulse voltammetry (DPV) and cyclic voltammetry (CV) techniques and demonstrated remarkable electrochemical properties with a good recovery range in real-sample analysis.

Современный подход к хирургии основания черепа дал возможность резекции сложных, распространенных опухолей. Но особую проблему все же продолжают составлять яремные или вагальные параганглиомы (хемодектомы, гломусные опухоли) ввиду их высокой васкуляризации и анатомической близости к крупным сосудам головы и шеи: яремная вена, сигмовидный и нижний каменистый синус, эмиссарная вена сосцевидного и мыщелковых отростков, каменистый сегмент внутренней сонной артерии. Повреждение их стенок во время операции ведет к массивным кровопотерям, что как затрудняет ход операции, так и требует восполнения компонентов крови и более длительного наблюдения за пациентами в послеоперационном периоде. Поэтому критически важно планирование операции с предупреждением всех факторов интраоперационной кровопотери. Для решения этого вопроса проведен анализ медицинской литературы по использованию методов венозной эмболизации и защиты стенок ВСА, применяемых при хирургическом лечении параганглиом основания черепа, а также возможностям эндоваскулярной хирургии на сегодняшний день. Цель работы – повышение эффективности хирургического лечения параганглиом основания черепа (тип С2–С4 по классификации U. Fisch и D. Mattox) путем выбора оптимальных способов венозной окклюзии и анализа рациональности стент-ассистенции внутренней сонной артерии как методов предоперационной подготовки.
Advances in skull base surgery make it possible to remove tumors with a difficult location. But jugular or vagal paragangliomas are a particular problem because it has a high vascularization and anatomical proximity to the large vessels of the head and neck: jugular vein, sigmoid and inferior petrosal sinus, emissary vein of the mastoid and condylar processes, petrosal segment of the internal carotid artery. Damage to the walls of blood vessels during surgery leads to massive blood loss and as a consequence in this case requires replenishment of blood components and leads to longer patient follow-up in a hospital. That is why it is critically important to plan the operation with the elimination of all factors of intraoperative blood loss. To solve this problem, we studied the methods of venous embolization and protection of the walls of the ICA in the available medical literature. Those Articles presented the surgery of paragangliomas of a base of the skull and the modern possibilities of endovascular surgery of the cerebral vessels. The purpose of the work isincreasing the efficiency of surgical treatment of paragangliomas of the skull base (type C2–C4 according to the classification of U. Fisсh and D. Mattox) by choosing the best methods of venous occlusion and analyzing the rationality of stent- assistance of the internal carotid artery as methods of preparing for surgery.

Abstract
Runaway stars are OB-type stars ejected from their birthplace with large peculiar velocities. The leading hypothesis addressed in their formation includes the supernova ejection mechanism and the dynamic ejection scenario. Identification of runaway populations is the first step to investigating their formation and evolution. Here we present our work of searching for Galactic runaway candidate stars from the Large sky Area Multi-Object fiber Spectroscopic Telescope (LAMOST) Medium Resolution Survey Data Release 8 (DR8) database. After studying the kinematic properties for a collection of 4432 early-type stars, predominantly B-type stars, using radial velocity measurements from LAMOST DR8 and astrometric solutions made by Gaia Data Release 3, we identified 229 runaway candidate stars. They span a wide distribution in projected rotational velocities. We investigated the Galactic spatial distribution of the runaway population and noticed that most of them likely reside within the Galactic thin disk. Based upon analyzing the Doppler shifts of the candidate stars, we found two binary runaway candidates displaying velocity variations with estimated orbital periods of 40 and 61 days.

L’institution, souvent appréhendée dans une forme d’abstraction, mobilise pourtant les corps des sujets dans leur différence sexuée et imaginairement régie par des fantasmes sexuels. L’institution n’échappe pas à la matérialité du corps et à son action. Se projetant souvent comme « corps », l’institution, à travers les groupes, mobilise des fantasmes qui en appellent à la différenciation ou à l’indifférenciation des sexes et à leurs rapports.

Published: June 2024

Background In medical education, artificial intelligence techniques such as natural language processing (NLP) are starting to be used to capture and analyze emotions through written text.
Objective To explore the application of NLP techniques to understand resident and faculty emotions related to entrustable professional activity (EPA) assessments.
Methods Open-ended text data from a survey on emotions toward EPA assessments were analyzed. Respondents were residents and faculty from pediatrics (Peds), general surgery (GS), and emergency medicine (EM), recruited for a larger emotions study in 2023. Participants wrote about their emotions related to receiving/completing EPA assessments. We analyzed the frequency of words rated as positive via a validated sentiment lexicon used in NLP studies. Specifically, we were interested if the count of positive words varied as a function of group membership (faculty, resident), specialty (Peds, GS, EM), gender (man, woman, nonbinary), or visible minority status (yes, no, omit).
Results A total of 66 text responses (30 faculty, 36 residents) contained text data useful for sentiment analysis. We analyzed the difference in the count of words categorized as positive across group, specialty, gender, and being a visible minority. Specialty was the only category revealing significant differences via a bootstrapped Poisson regression model with GS responses containing fewer positive words than EM responses.
Conclusions By analyzing text data to understand emotions of residents and faculty through an NLP approach, we identified differences in EPA assessment-related emotions of residents versus faculty, and differences across specialties.
