Published: May 2024

Результаты молекулярно-генетических исследований позволили приблизиться к пониманию патогенеза рабдомиосарком (РМС), их включение в стандартное тестирование установило новые диагностические критерии для данного вида опухолей. Помимо своей важной роли в диагностике, генетическое тестирование стало необходимым для выбора интенсивности терапии и оценки прогноза у пациентов с РМС. Наиболее значимым диагностическим исследованием является определение химерных генов PAX3/7::FOXO1 — маркеров альвеолярной РМС (АРМС) и предикторов неблагоприятного прогноза, которое стало широко использоваться для классификации РМС и является основанием для стратификации пациентов в группу высокого риска. АРМС без выявленных перестроек с участием генов PAX3/7 или FOXO1 (в т. ч. и с нестандартными генами-партнерами) в настоящее время рассматривается как прогностически более благоприятная форма РМС, близкая с точки зрения молекулярной биологии к эмбриональной РМС (ЭРМС). Стандартная диагностика данных опухолей в настоящее время включает морфологическое, иммуногистохимическое и молекулярное исследования. Во многих случаях рутинная окраска гематоксилином и эозином и характер экспрессии Desmin, MyoD1 и Myogenin достаточны как для подтверждения диагноза РМС, так и для определения гистологического типа. При этом только определение химерных генов PAX3/7::FOXO1 позволяет однозначно определить АРМС, особенно при солидном гистологическом варианте. Гистологически однородная группа веретеноклеточных/склерозирующих РМС (ВСРМС) характеризуется очень высокой биологической и клинической гетерогенностью, обусловленной большим количеством прогностически значимых генетических вариантов. Ведущая роль в дифференциальной диагностике ВСРМС принадлежит молекулярно-генетическим методам исследования.
Contingency inferences from base rates: A parsimonious strategy?

Published: May 2024

AbstractThe pseudocontingency framework provides a parsimonious strategy for inferring the contingency between two variables by assessing the base rates. Frequently occurring levels are associated, as are rarely occurring levels. However, this strategy can lead to different contingency inferences in different contexts, depending on how the base rates vary across contexts. Here, we examine how base-rate consistency influences base-rate learning and reliance by contrasting consistent with inconsistent base rates. We hypothesized that base-rate learning is facilitated, and that people rely more on base rates if base rates are consistent. In Experiment 1, the base rates across four contexts implied the same (consistent) or different (inconsistent) contingencies. Base rates were learned equally accurately, and participants inferred contingencies that followed the base rates but deviated from the genuine contingencies within contexts, regardless of consistency. In Experiment 2, we additionally manipulated whether the context was a plausible moderator of the contingency. While we replicated the first experiment's results when the context was a plausible moderator, base-rate inferences were stronger for consistent base rates when the context was an implausible moderator. Possibly, when a moderation-by-context was implausible, participants also relied on the base-rate correlation across contexts, which implied the same contingency when base rates were consistent but was zero when the base rates were inconsistent. Thus, our findings suggest that contingency inferences from base rates involve top-down processes in which people decide how to use base-rate information.
Psychometric benefits of self-chosen rating scales over given rating scales
Authors: Kutscher Tanja , Eid Michael 
Published: May 2024

AbstractRating scales are susceptible to response styles that undermine the scale quality. Optimizing a rating scale can tailor it to individuals’ cognitive abilities, thereby preventing the occurrence of response styles related to a suboptimal response format. However, the discrimination ability of individuals in a sample may vary, suggesting that different rating scales may be appropriate for different individuals. This study aims to examine (1) whether response styles can be avoided when individuals are allowed to choose a rating scale and (2) whether the psychometric properties of self-chosen rating scales improve compared to given rating scales. To address these objectives, data from the flourishing scale were used as an illustrative example. MTurk workers from Amazon’s Mechanical Turk platform (N = 7042) completed an eight-item flourishing scale twice: (1) using a randomly assigned four-, six-, or 11-point rating scale, and (2) using a self-chosen rating scale. Applying the restrictive mixed generalized partial credit model (rmGPCM) allowed examination of category use across the conditions. Correlations with external variables were calculated to assess the effects of the rating scales on criterion validity. The results revealed consistent use of self-chosen rating scales, with approximately equal proportions of the three response styles. Ordinary response behavior was observed in 55–58% of individuals, which was an increase of 12–15% compared to assigned rating scales. The self-chosen rating scales also exhibited superior psychometric properties. The implications of these findings are discussed.

Published: May 2024

AbstractPSYCHOACOUSTICS-WEB is an online tool written in JavaScript and PHP that enables the estimation of auditory sensory thresholds via adaptive threshold tracking. The toolbox implements the transformed up-down methods proposed by Levitt (Journal of the Acoustical Society of America, 49, 467-477, (1971) for a set of classic psychoacoustical tasks: frequency, intensity, and duration discrimination of pure tones; duration discrimination and gap detection of noise; and amplitude modulation detection with noise carriers. The toolbox can be used through a common web browser; it works with both fixed and mobile devices, and requires no programming skills. PSYCHOACOUSTICS-WEB is suitable for laboratory, classroom, and online testing and is designed for two main types of users: an occasional user and, above all, an experimenter using the toolbox for their own research. This latter user can create a personal account, customise existing experiments, and share them in the form of direct links to further users (e.g., the participants of a hypothetical experiment). Finally, because data storage is centralised, the toolbox offers the potential for creating a database of auditory skills.

Authors: Rasoloharimahefa-Rasamoela Michèle , Bouland Catherine 
Published: May 2024

Contexte : Lors d’une exposition chimique aiguë de grande ampleur, une préparation des intervenants des premiers secours et une formation commune sont indispensables. Une meilleure connaissance des évaluations de l’exposition permet d’estimer le risque et d’ajuster les mesures immédiates. L’objectif de cet article est de synthétiser les mesures d’évaluation de l’exposition préconisées durant un incident chimique nécessitant des interventions en urgence. Ces mesures portent sur les actions qui visent à améliorer la protection de la santé des professionnels de la santé, des équipes d’intervention et de la population générale exposés lors d’un incident aigu. Méthodologie : Une revue de synthèse de la littérature avec formulation de la question de recherche a été effectuée grâce à la méthode PECO. La sélection de la littérature suit la méthode de PRISMA. Résultats et discussion : La littérature (n = 16) a démontré que les connaissances du processus d’évaluation du risque ainsi que la préparation aux incidents chimiques relative aux équipements de protection individuelle et collective étaient lacunaires. Une formation commune axée sur l’évaluation du risque est proposée. La déclinaison par étapes de ce processus améliore l’évaluation du risque et la protection de la santé des personnes exposées. Une surveillance dynamique des données de l’environnement et de santé permet d’ajuster les recommandations durant les interventions. Conclusions : La connaissance de l’évaluation du risque par tous les intervenants des premiers secours permet un travail de collaboration dans la délimitation de l’exposition, dans l’identification des zones à risque et dans l’utilisation adéquate des mesures de protection dans le temps et l’espace.

Abstract
Most pancreatic islets are destroyed immediately after intraportal transplantation by an instant blood-mediated inflammatory reaction (IBMIR) generated through activation of coagulation, complement, and proinflammatory pathways. Thus, effective mitigation of IBMIR may be contingent on the combined use of agents targeting these pathways for modulation. CD47 and thrombomodulin (TM) are two molecules with distinct functions in regulating coagulation and proinflammatory responses. We previously reported that the islet surface can be modified with biotin for transient display of novel forms of these two molecules chimeric with streptavidin (SA), that is, thrombomodulin chimeric with SA (SA-TM) and CD47 chimeric with SA (SA-CD47), as single agents with improved engraftment following intraportal transplantation. This study aimed to test whether islets can be coengineered with SA-TM and SA-CD47 molecules as a combinatorial approach to improve engraftment by inhibiting IBMIR. Mouse islets were effectively coengineered with both molecules without a detectable negative impact on their viability and metabolic function. Coengineered islets were refractory to destruction by IBMIR ex vivo and showed enhanced engraftment and sustained function in a marginal mass syngeneic intraportal transplantation model. Improved engraftment correlated with a reduction in intragraft innate immune infiltrates, particularly neutrophils and M1 macrophages. Moreover, transcripts for various intragraft procoagulatory and proinflammatory agents, including tissue factor, HMGB1 (high-mobility group box-1), IL-1β, IL-6, TNF-α, IFN-γ, and MIP-1α, were significantly reduced in coengineered islets. These data demonstrate that the transient codisplay of SA-TM and SA-CD47 proteins on the islet surface is a facile and effective platform to modulate procoagulatory and inflammatory responses with implications for both autologous and allogeneic islet transplantation.

Abstract
Semecarpus anacardium (Family: Anacardiaceae), is a frequently used medicinal plant in alternative medicine. There has been few case reports suggesting the role of marking nut extract in allergic contact dermatitis. Case one presented with vesicles coalescing to form bullae with surrounding necrotic epidermis accompanied by itching and burning sensation over nape of neck. He developed recurrent urticarial episodes post treatment. Case two reported similar lesions over beard region after 2 weeks of our index case in addition to diffuse erythematous maculopapular pruritic rash over upper chest, face and anterior shoulder. Case three, four and five reported with similar kind of lesions over various body parts. Case six presented with targetoid lesion with central bullae over upper torso. Case seven reported with bizarre lesions like splattering of chemical which were morphologically similar as the other cases, over left popliteal fossa and calf area. Our cases were from the same geographic area and were in the same profession. On evaluation of the pattern and morphology of lesions and careful investigation, it was concluded that it was an irritant reaction to Semicarpus nut extract which was supported by histopathology findings. On further probing, it was observed that the individuals inflicted the injury in order to avoid some strenuous work. All were evaluated and none of them were found to be suffering from any psychiatric ailment. We reported this case series because of unique morphological presentation which has not yet been reported in the literature to the best of our knowledge.
Synovial Chondromatosis of Right Knee: A Case Report
Authors: Lingamurthy Diksha Molugu , CH Sri Laxmi , Arasi Tamil 
Published: May 2024

Abstract
Synovial chondromatosis is a rare cartilaginous neoplasm that most commonly affects the knee joint. Histologically, it presents as a multinodular cartilaginous proliferation showing clusters of chondrocytes. These can be quite atypical, simulating chondrosarcoma. The lesion is usually self-limited but sometimes may exhibit a more aggressive clinical course characterized by multiple local recurrences. Chondrosarcomatous transformation in synovial chondromatosis is exceedingly rare but has been documented.
Until recently, synovial chondromatosis was considered a reactive process. Recent cytogenetic studies have shown recurrent chromosomal abnormalities, especially involving chromosome6, therefore supporting a clonal, neoplastic nature of this intriguing lesion.
Measuring Perception of College Welcome Provided to Foreign-Born Students: Validation with Pilot Data
Authors: Evans Kerri 
Published: May 2024

Immigrant and foreign-born students are one of the fastest growing populations in higher education across the US, and yet there is a dearth of research around their sense of belonging on campus and in the classroom. Therefore, this paper will cover the development and evaluation process for a scale designed to evaluate the perception of college welcome provided to immigrant students. Data from 94 college students was used to conduct a series of factor analyses to assess the survey questions and their utility for measuring college welcome. The scale is made up of four factors. The Cognitive awareness of college welcome factor showed a Cronbach's alpha of 0.72, the Emotional college welcome factor showed a Cronbach's alpha of 0.732 Behaviors of college welcome showed a Cronbach's alpha of 0.75 and the Relational college welcome showed a Cronbach's alpha 0.767. Overall, Cronbach's alpha is 0.864 for the perception of college welcome which is excellent. While the results are promising that this scale could indeed be measuring college welcome, it is important that more data be collected, reflect a higher percentage of immigrant students, and that future research be done to continue to assess the reliability and validity of this scale. This scale is the first step in better understanding the perception of welcome provided to foreign-born students, which is critical so that social workers can intervene and help improve the social and emotional well-being of students.

Published: May 2024

O estudo aborda questões relacionadas às pessoas portadoras de Síndrome de Down, desafios enfrentados e o impacto gerado na rotina e vida dos familiares, adicionalmente, serão discutidos os recursos disponíveis para auxiliar os pais nessa jornada, tais como; atendimentos multiprofissionais, grupos de apoio, terapias especializadas e programas de inclusão social. A Síndrome de Down é uma condição genética identificada pela presença de um cromossomo extra no par 21, resultando em características físicas distintas e alterações no desenvolvimento psicomotor e cognitivo. O diagnóstico dessa síndrome pode ocorrer durante a gestação, através dos exames, amniocentese e Biópsia de Vilo Corial (BVC), ou após o nascimento do bebê. O enfrentamento do diagnóstico de Síndrome de Down pelos pais é um processo complexo e emocionalmente intenso. Eles passam por diferentes estágios emocionais. Além de adaptarem suas vidas a uma nova rotina pensando sempre no bem-estar dos seus filhos, buscando apoio e recursos disponíveis. Os profissionais de saúde como médicos, terapeutas ocupacionais, fonoaudiólogos, fisioterapeutas, psicólogos entre outros profissionais da saúde, estes auxiliam os pais a como lidar com as adversidades e comorbidades que irão enfrentar diariamente. O objetivo geral é apresentar o contexto de problemas identificados, bem como suas causas e consequências, além de propor reflexão e discussão sobre o impacto da atuação do profissional em enfermagem na vida dos familiares e portadores de Síndrome de Down. O presente estudo tem caráter qualitativo, destaca-se que na fase de perícia se deu a compilação de pesquisas bibliográficas e documentais, tendo como principais fontes as bases de dados o Scientific Electronic Library Online (SciELO) e o Ministério da Saúde entre os anos de 2014 a 2024. Através de pesquisas e estudos realizados, pôde-se identificar estratégias de enfrentamento comuns e os principais desafios enfrentados por esses pais. Os pais que têm acesso a recursos como informações precisas sobre a síndrome, orientação de especialistas e grupos de apoio familiar, demonstraram uma maior capacidade de lidar com as demandas e desafios diários. No entanto, há a necessidade de melhorias e expansão no suporte oferecido aos pais atípicos e as crianças portadoras da Síndrome de Down.

Published: May 2024

This study employed a quasi-experimental, mixed-methods design utilizing a two-eyed seeing approach that foregrounds Indigenous principles of respect, reciprocity, relevance, and responsibility (Kirkness & Barnhardt, 2001). With the focus of creating community in the higher education classroom, the curriculum was designed to enhance Indigenous values of interpersonal connection, collaboration, and interdependence. In support of fostering Indigenous ways of knowing, a Knowledge Holder worked with the researchers on curriculum design and delivery. The Indigenous curriculum is presented in detail. A total of 92 students in the Bachelor of Social Work program at a southwestern Ontario university participated in the study. Overall, quantitative and qualitative results suggested that the Indigenous pedagogy was associated with increased students’ satisfaction and connectedness to the material and their peers, and greater self-reflection.
