Abstract
Background
the AMORAL model emphasizes the close connection of individuals’ belief system and malevolent creativity. Belief in a just world theory (BJW) states that people have a basic need to believe that the world they live in is just, and everyone gets what they deserve. Therefore, justice matters to all people. Justice sensitivity, as one of individual trait, has been found associated with negative goals. However, relevant studies have not tested whether justice sensitivity can affect malevolent creativity and its psychological mechanisms. Additionally, researchers have found that both anger and emotion regulation linked with justice sensitivity and malevolent creativity, but their contribution to the relationship between justice sensitivity and malevolent creativity remained unclear. The current study aims to explore the influence of justice sensitivity on malevolent creativity, the mediating effect of trait anger/state anger on the relationship between justice sensitivity and malevolent creativity, and the moderating effect of emotion regulation on this mediating effect.

Methods
A moderated mediating model was constructed to test the relationship between justice sensitivity and malevolent creativity. A sample of 395 Chinese college students were enrolled to complete the questionnaire survey.

Results
Justice sensitivity positively correlated with malevolent creativity, both trait anger and state anger partly mediated the connection between justice sensitivity and malevolent creativity. Moreover, emotion regulation moderated the indirect effect of the mediation model. The indirect effect of justice sensitivity on malevolent creativity through trait anger/state anger increased as the level of emotion regulation increased. The results indicated that justice sensitivity can affect malevolent creativity directly and indirectly through the anger. The level of emotion regulation differentiated the indirect paths of justice sensitivity on malevolent creativity.

Conclusions
Justice sensitivity and malevolent creativity was mediated by trait anger/state anger. The higher sensitivity to justice, the higher level of trait anger/state anger, which in turn boosted the tendency of malevolent creativity. This indirect connection was moderated by emotion regulation, individuals with high emotion regulation are better able to buffer anger from justice sensitivity.

Published: May 2024

AbstractThe current study investigated university students’ well-being during Emergency Remote Teaching (ERT) via EMPATHICS framework in the aftermath of an earthquake that struck the Eastern part of Türkiye. The study had a mixed-methods research design, where quantitative data were analyzed through descriptives of the participants’ overall happiness indices, and qualitative data were analyzed through thematic analysis of those of narrations. Gathered through convenience sampling, the participants were constituted by 18 university students recruited from the department of Foreign Language Education at a state university in Türkiye. The results scrutinized that the participants did not exhibit elevated levels of well-being within the context of ERT. Additionally, the dimensions of the EMPHATICS framework were elaborated in detail to reveal their psychological well-being during ERT, which could also provide pedagogical implications for student well-being and suggestions for further research.

Abstract
Background
There is an epidemic of firearm injuries in the United States since the mid-2000s. Thus, we sought to examine whether hospitalization from firearm injuries have increased over time, and to examine temporal changes in patient demographics, firearm injury intent, and injury severity.

Methods
This was a multicenter, retrospective, observational cohort study of patients hospitalized with a traumatic injury to six US level I trauma centers between 1/1/2016 and 6/30/2022. ICD-10-CM cause codes were used to identify and describe firearm injuries. Temporal trends were compared for demographics (age, sex, race, insured status), intent (assault, unintentional, self-harm, legal intervention, and undetermined), and severity (death, ICU admission, severe injury (injury severity score ≥ 16), receipt of blood transfusion, mechanical ventilation, and hospital and ICU LOS (days). Temporal trends were examined over 13 six-month intervals (H1, January–June; H2, July–December) using joinpoint regression and reported as semi-annual percent change (SPC); significance was p < 0.05.

Results
Firearm injuries accounted for 2.6% (1908 of 72,474) of trauma hospitalizations. The rate of firearm injuries initially declined from 2016-H1 to 2018-H2 (SPC = − 4.0%, p = 0.002), followed by increased rates from 2018-H2 to 2020-H1 (SPC = 9.0%, p = 0.005), before stabilizing from 2020-H1 to 2022-H1 (0.5%, p = 0.73). NH black patients had the greatest hospitalization rate from firearm injuries (14.0%) and were the only group to demonstrate a temporal increase (SPC = 6.3%, p < 0.001). The proportion of uninsured patients increased (SPC = 2.3%, p = 0.02) but there were no temporal changes by age or sex. ICU admission rates declined (SPC = − 2.2%, p < 0.001), but ICU LOS increased (SPC = 2.8%, p = 0.04). There were no significant changes over time in rates of death (SPC = 0.3%), severe injury (SPC = 1.6%), blood transfusion (SPC = 0.6%), and mechanical ventilation (SPC = 0.6%). When examined by intent, self-harm injuries declined over time (SPC = − 4.1%, p < 0.001), assaults declined through 2019-H2 (SPC = − 5.6%, p = 0.01) before increasing through 2022-H1 (SPC = 6.5%, p = 0.01), while undetermined injuries increased through 2019-H1 (SPC = 24.1%, p = 0.01) then stabilized (SPC = − 4.5%, p = 0.39); there were no temporal changes in unintentional injuries or legal intervention.

Conclusions
Hospitalizations from firearm injuries are increasing following a period of declines, driven by increases among NH Black patients. Trauma systems need to consider these changing trends to best address the needs of the injured population.
Laparoscopic cholecystectomy for patients with accessory liver lobe attached to the wall of the gallbladder: case reports
Authors: Furuke Hirotaka , Takagi Tsuyoshi , Kobayashi Hiroki , Fukumoto Kanehisa 
Published: May 2024

Abstract
Background
Laparoscopic cholecystectomy (LC) is one of the most commonly undertaken procedures worldwide for cholecystolithiasis and cholecystitis. Accessory liver lobe (ALL) is a developmental anomaly defined as an excessive liver lobe composed of a normal liver parenchyma. Some ALL exist on the serosal side of the gallbladder. We herein present two cases of ALL incidentally detected during LC.

Case presentation
The first case was a 69-year-old woman diagnosed with chronic cholecystitis. LC was performed. ALL was observed anterior to the wall of the gallbladder and resected after clipping. Pathological findings revealed liver tissue with Glisson’s capsule and a lobular structure in ALL. However, communication between the bile ducts of ALL and the main liver was unclear due to surgical heat degeneration. The second case was a 56-year-old woman diagnosed with acute cholecystitis. LC was performed approximately one month after the attack, and ALL attached to the wall of gallbladder. ALL was clipped and completely resected. Pathological findings showed that the bile ducts of ALL might be connected within the wall of gallbladder.

Conclusions
We presented two cases of ALL attached to the gallbladder encountered during LC. Since ALL contains a normal liver parenchyma, postoperative bleeding or bile leakage may occur if it is inefficiently resected. Therefore, the complete resection of ALL is important to prevent these postoperative complications.

Published: May 2024

Abstract
Background
Chondrosarcomas are rare malignant bone tumors diagnosed by analyzing radiological images and histology of tissue biopsies and evaluating features such as matrix calcification, cortical destruction, trabecular penetration, and tumor cell entrapment.

Methods
We retrospectively analyzed 16 cartilaginous tumor tissue samples from three patients (51-, 54-, and 70-year-old) diagnosed with a dedifferentiated chondrosarcoma at the femur, a moderately differentiated chondrosarcoma in the pelvis, and a predominantly moderately differentiated chondrosarcoma at the scapula, respectively. We combined a hematein-based x-ray staining with high-resolution three-dimensional (3D) microscopic x-ray computed tomography (micro-CT) for nondestructive 3D tumor assessment and tumor margin evaluation.

Results
We detected trabecular entrapment on 3D micro-CT images and followed bone destruction throughout the volume. In addition to staining cell nuclei, hematein-based staining also improved the visualization of the tumor matrix, allowing for the distinction between the tumor and the bone marrow cavity. The hematein-based staining did not interfere with further conventional histology. There was a 5.97 ± 7.17% difference between the relative tumor area measured using micro-CT and histopathology (p = 0.806) (Pearson correlation coefficient r = 0.92, p = 0.009). Signal intensity in the tumor matrix (4.85 ± 2.94) was significantly higher in the stained samples compared to the unstained counterparts (1.92 ± 0.11, p = 0.002).

Conclusions
Using nondestructive 3D micro-CT, the simultaneous visualization of radiological and histopathological features is feasible.

Relevance statement
3D micro-CT data supports modern radiological and histopathological investigations of human bone tumor specimens. It has the potential for being an integrative part of clinical preoperative diagnostics.

Key points
• Matrix calcifications are a relevant diagnostic feature of bone tumors.
• Micro-CT detects all clinically diagnostic relevant features of x-ray-stained chondrosarcoma.
• Micro-CT has the potential to be an integrative part of clinical diagnostics.

Published: May 2024

Abstract
Background
Pantoea agglomerans (P. agglomerans) is an environmental gram-negative bacterium that rarely infects humans. P. agglomerans infections have never been reported in Tanzania. We investigated the occurrence of P. agglomerans bloodstream infections among neonates in the Intensive Care Unit (NICU) and their subsequent clinical outcome that occurred in 2019.

Methodology
Blood samples were collected from neonates with sepsis. A total of 19 P. agglomerans were isolated from 17 infected neonates; two of the neonates had P. agglomerans isolated twice. A total of 14 patient files were retrieved from medical records.

Results
The mean age of the infected neonates were 3.75 ± 7.95 days. Isolated P. agglomerans showed high sensitivity to the antibiotics particularly chloramphenicol (94.7%), piperacillin-tazobactam (94.7%) and meropenem (94.7%). The mortality rate was 71.4% with 35.7% of infected neonates dying before Antibiotic Susceptibility Test results for appropriate management. The Infection Prevention and Control (IPC) team shut the NICU for thorough decontamination which helped to stop the P. agglomerans occurrence.

Conclusions
P. agglomerans occurrence at the NICU was an uncommon aetiology pathogen for neonatal sepsis associated with high rates of mortality despite high sensitivity to multiple antibiotics. This calls for the strengthening of infection control measures and introduction of surveillance for environmental pathogens capable of causing human infections.

Authors: El-Sawy Deif Allah Naglaa Sabry , Abdallah Randa Hossein , Hassan Mohammed Sobhi , Ibrahim Suzan Farouk 
Published: May 2024

Abstract
Background
Dynamic contrast-enhanced magnetic resonance imaging (DCE-MRI) is the important tool in breast imaging. However, two major limitations are represented by its specificity and by the injection of contrast material. Diffusion weighted imaging (DWI) provides important functional information without the need for contrast material. A newly introduced diffusion weighted imaging with background suppression (DWIBS) sequence is an accurate and rapid tool for the identification and characterization of breast lesions, with its short examination time, high lesion-to-background contrast and lack of need for intravenous contrast agents.

Objective
To assess the role of DWIBS sequence in the evaluation of indeterminate and suspicious breast masses and to compare its accuracy with DCE-MRI in correlation with histopathological findings.

Methods
Thirty-five patients were included in the study, referred from sono-mammography clinic to MRI unit for further MRI assessment of probably benign, suspicious and malignant looking breast masses (BIRADS 3, BIRADS 4 & BIRADS 5) on sono-mammography imaging results. MRI breast protocol which included DCE-MRI and DWIBS sequences were obtained for characterization and were verified by core needle biopsy or excisional biopsy. The results were statistically analyzed. Sensitivity, specificity, diagnostic accuracy (DA), positive predictive value (PPV) and negative predictive value (NPV) were calculated for DCE-MRI and DWIBS. Apparent diffusion co-efficient (ADC) values were calculated with ADC ≤ 1.2 × 10−3 mm2/s was considered suspicious for malignancy. The results were then compared with the histological findings.

Results
Thirty-five female patients had 39 breast masses included in our study. By DCE-MRI, 8 (20.5%) masses were categorized as benign and 31(79.5%) masses were categorized as malignant. By DWIBS sequence, 7 (17.9%) masses were categorized as benign and 32 (82.1%) masses were categorized as malignant. By histopathology, 14 (35.9%) masses were benign and 25 (64.1%) masses were malignant. DCE-MRI obtained accuracy, sensitivity, specificity, PPV and NPV values of 84.6, 100, 57.1, 80.6 and 100%, respectively. DWIBS sequences obtained accuracy, sensitivity, specificity, PPV and NPV values of 82.1, 100, 50, 78.1and 100%, respectively.

Conclusions
DWIBS can be added to DCE-MRI, as complementary tool to make radiologist more confident about the diagnosis. It can also be used instead of DCE-MRI sequences in certain circumstances such as in cases of renal impairment.

Published: May 2024

PURPOSE Patients living in rural communities have greater barriers to cancer care and poorer outcomes. We hypothesized that rural patients with prostate cancer have less access and receive different treatments compared with urban patients. METHODS We used a population-based prospective cohort, the North Carolina Prostate Cancer Comparative Effectiveness and Survivorship Study, to compare differences in prostate cancer diagnosis, access to care, and treatment in patients by geographic residence. The 2013 rural-urban continuum code (RUCC) was used to determine urban (RUCC 1-3) versus rural (RUCC 4-9) location of residence. RESULTS Patients with rural residence comprised 25% of the cohort (364 of 1,444); they were less likely to be White race and had lower income and educational attainment. Rural patients were more likely to have <12 cores on biopsy (47.1% v 35.7%; P < .001) and less likely (40.8% v 47.6%; P = .04) to receive multidisciplinary consultation. We observed significant differences in treatment between urban and rural patients, including rural patients receiving less active surveillance or observation (22.6% v 28.7%), especially in low-risk cancer (33.2% v 40.7%). On multivariable analysis that adjusted for patient and diagnostic factors, rural residence was associated with less use of active surveillance or observation over radical treatment (ie, surgery or radiation therapy; odds ratio, 0.49 v urban; P < .001) in patients with low-risk cancer. CONCLUSION Patients with prostate cancer who live in rural versus urban areas experience several differences in care that are likely clinically meaningful, including fewer cores in the diagnostic biopsy, less utilization of multidisciplinary consultation, less use of active surveillance, or observation for low-risk disease. Future studies are needed to assess the efficacy of interventions in mitigating these disparities.

Published: May 2024

Abstract
The Rashba spin-splitting and thermoelectric transport of two-dimensional black arsenic phosphorus (2D B-AsP) under strain control are studied using non-equilibrium Green's function and first-principles calculations. Firstly, we determine the stability range of 2D B-AsP under strain conditions, with biaxial strain ranging from −2% to +10% and uniaxial strain ranging from −9% to +10%. Secondly, we analyze the spin splitting at the point Γ under strain within the range from −1% to +2%, and find that the spin-splitting coefficient decreases with increasing strain. Thirdly, we discuss the effects of applying strain and changing temperature on 2D B-AsP thermoelectric transport. When the uniaxial compression strain is −4%, the ZT coefficient increases by 14.8%, and increases by 193.6% at a temperature of 600 K. Finally, when two external conditions exist simultaneously, the ZT coefficient of the material increases by 103.4%. The research results demonstrate the potential applications of 2D B-AsP in spintronics and thermoelectricity.
Estimation of Glucose Absorption, Insulin Sensitivity, and Glucose Effectiveness From the Oral Glucose Tolerance Test
Authors: Stefanovski Darko , Smiley Dawn D , Punjabi Naresh M , Umpierrez Guillermo E , Vellanki Priyathama 
Published: May 2024

Abstract

Context
Glucose tolerance during an oral glucose tolerance test (OGTT) is affected by variations in glucose effectiveness (GE) and glucose absorption and thus affects minimal model calculations of insulin sensitivity (SI). The widely used OGTT SI by Dalla Man et al does not account for variances in GE and glucose absorption.

Objective
To develop a novel model that concurrently assesses SI, GE, and glucose absorption.

Methods
In this cross-sectional study conducted at an academic medical center, 17 subjects without abnormalities on OGTT (controls) and 88 subjects with diabetes underwent a 75-gram 120-minute 6-timepoint OGTT. The SI from the Dalla Man model was validated with the novel model SI using Bland-Altman limits of agreement methodology. Comparisons of SI, GE, and gastrointestinal glucose half-life (GIGt1/2), a surrogate measure for glucose absorption, were made between subjects with diabetes and controls.

Results
In controls and diabetes, the novel model SI was higher than the current OGTT model. The SI from both controls (ƿ=0.90, P &lt; .001) and diabetes (ƿ=0.77, P &lt; .001) has high agreement between models. GE was higher in diabetes (median: 0.021 1/min, interquartile range [IQR]: 0.020-0.022) compared to controls (median: 0.016 1/min, IQR: 0.015-0.017), P = .02. GIGt1/2 was shorter in diabetes (median: 48.404 min, IQR: 54.424-39.426) than in controls (median: 55.086 min, IQR: 61.368-48.502) without statistical difference.

Conclusion
Our novel model SI has a good correlation with SI from the widely used Dalla Man's model while concurrently calculating GE and GIGt1/2. Thus, besides estimating SI, our novel model can quantify differences in insulin-independent glucose disposal mechanisms important for diabetes pathophysiology.

Published: May 2024

Abstract

Context
Both physical activity (PA) and sedentary behavior (SB) exert an important impact on type 2 diabetes, but it remains unclear regarding how the maximum impact on improving mortality by an optimized proportion of the two lifestyles can be achieved.

Objective
To explore the impacts of PA/SB combinations on mortality in patients with diabetes.

Methods
Patients with type 2 diabetes samplings were collected from the National Health and Nutrition Examination Survey dataset. Their lifestyles were categorized into 8 groups based on combinations of the PA and SB levels. Cox proportional hazards models were used to calculate hazard ratios and 95% confidence intervals.

Results
During the follow-up period, 1148 deaths (18.94%) were recorded. High SB (sedentary time ≥6 hours/day) was significantly associated with higher all-cause mortality [hazards ratio (HR) 1.65]. In participants with low SB (&lt;6 hours/day), low PA was associated with lower all-cause mortality (HR 0.43), while a further increase of PA level did not show further reductions in either all-cause or cardiovascular mortality. In contrast, in participants with high SB, all levels of PA were associated with lower all-cause mortality (P &lt; .05), but only moderate PA was associated with lower cardiovascular mortality (HR 0.30).

Conclusion
In patients with type 2 diabetes, different combinations of various levels of PA and SB are associated with different degrees of risk for all-cause or cardiovascular mortality.
