Published: February 2025

PurposeThis study aimed to understand how administrative employees of an oil company perceive the role of software solutions in their routines.Design/methodology/approachStarting from an interpretive perspective, we used the phenomenographic method to analyze software solutions based on users’ experience, by means of 20 interviews carried out between November 2020 and May 2021.FindingsInterviewees ranked the function of software solutions in their routines in three categories: (1) information repository; (2) orchestration mechanism and (3) guidelines for action. Four explanatory dimensions were identified: (1) artifact performance; (2) configuration between actors; (3) degree of automation and (4) accountability aspects.Research limitations/implicationsThe results expand knowledge on the role of software solutions in organizations. As players consider software essential to their routines, human agency in actions tends to decrease. Furthermore, the incorporation of digital elements in routines varies, based on how actors perceive their integration, from external tools to dominant elements that shape actions.Practical implicationsRespecting the autonomy of the actors involved in automated routines; ideally, automating routine steps that add value to the process.Originality/valueThe study explores the function of software solutions in organizational routines through the phenomenographic approach, presenting different concepts of that event.

ABSTRACTRecently, biomass of invertebrates has declined substantially at many locations with the implications of this biodiversity loss for ecosystems yet unknown. Through multitrophic interactions, plant‐ and soil‐associated microbiomes might be altered, causing a cascade of changes on diverse ecosystem processes. We simulated aboveground invertebrate decline in grassland ecosystems with two levels of invertebrate biomass (36% and 100% of current ambient conditions), plus a control with no invertebrates present. Each standardised grassland mesocosm additionally contained one clonal Quercus robur L. sapling to investigate the extent of invertebrate decline effects exceeding grasslands. We investigated oak biomass partitioning and mycorrhiza formation, oak leaf transcriptome and microbiome composition of leaves, roots and rhizosphere. While invertebrate decline did not significantly affect oak performance and herbivory‐related gene expression, fungal communities presented an increase of saprotrophs and pathogens, especially in leaves. Among leaf‐inhabiting bacteria, Proteobacteria and Actinobacteria increased under invertebrate decline. The belowground microbiome was only little affected. But, invertebrate decline came along with a reduced influence on predators leading to an elevated aphids infestation that proofed able to alter microbiota. Our findings establish a strong difference between above‐ and belowground, with the impacts of invertebrate decline being more pronounced in the leaf microbiome.

AbstractWe examined the efficacy of two interventions aiming to strengthen argumentative text comprehension in Greek secondary students with specific reading disability or low reading achievement of unspecified cause. The first intervention (control group, n = 29) was based on principles of systematic explicit instruction, whereas in the second one (experimental group, n = 30) the repeated reading strategy (RRS) was added. Both the control and the experimental groups included students with specific reading disability or low reading achievement. The control group received 24 lessons of 60 min each, whereas the experimental group received one extra lesson to ensure participants' familiarisation with the use of RRS. Both groups presented significantly higher achievement at post‐test than at pre‐test, as shown by measurements for which a standardised and a researcher‐made reading comprehension tool were used. The effect size of both interventions was high (control group: 0.85, experimental group: 0.81). Results are discussed in terms of the effectiveness of systematic explicit instruction in teaching argumentative text comprehension to secondary struggling readers.
The Effects of Medicaid Coverage for School‐Based Health Services on the Supply of School‐Based Healthcare Clinics: Evidence From the “Free Care Rule” Reversal and FQHCs
Authors: Bullinger Lindsey Rose , Shi Scarlette Jiajing 
Published: February 2025

ABSTRACTObjectiveTo determine whether Medicaid coverage of healthcare services provided within schools affects the supply of school‐based health clinics.Data Sources and Study SettingWe combine nationwide data spanning 2012–2020 on Federally Qualified Health Centers delivering health services within school settings with state policy information on Medicaid expansion to school‐based healthcare.Study DesignUntil 2014, the federal “Free Care Rule” restricted school‐based health centers from using Medicaid funding to provide health services unless these services were part of the student's Individual Education Plan. In 2014, the Centers for Medicare & Medicaid Services reversed the free care rule, allowing states to opt in to authorizing Medicaid reimbursement for comprehensive health services delivered in schools to Medicaid‐enrolled students. We compared the number of federally qualified school‐based health centers in states that expanded their Medicaid policies in response to the free care rule reversal to that of states that did not expand their Medicaid programs to reimburse for school‐based health services in a staggered difference‐in‐differences analysis. We also adjusted the analysis for other important measures that may independently affect school‐based healthcare provision and funding decisions.Data CollectionThe number of health centers delivering services in schools comes from the Health Resources & Services Administration. State Medicaid coverage policy information comes from the Healthy Schools Campaign.Principal FindingsExpanding Medicaid coverage to comprehensive school‐based healthcare increased the number of Federally Qualified Health Centers providing services in school settings by about 13.42 (p = 0.035, 95% CI: 0.94, 25.90). This increase represents a relative rise of 39%. However, these results are sensitive to specifications.ConclusionsLocal educational entities, school health providers, and public health professionals are responsive to financial incentives to provide services to Medicaid‐enrolled children within schools. Recent federal legislation has the potential to increase financial incentives and offer complementarities to prior state‐level policy changes.
Production and Utilization of Fermented Rice Bran as Animal Feed
Authors: Manlapig Jamal James D. , Matsui Hiroki 
Published: February 2025

ABSTRACTRice bran, a byproduct of milling rice (Oryza sativa), is widely used in Asian preserved foods and the feed industry. Rich in carbohydrates, protein, fat, and various bioactive compounds, it offers significant growth and health benefits. It is commonly used as a replacement for cereals and grains as an energy source in the diet. However, its potential as animal feed is constrained by antinutritional factors and susceptibility to rancidity due to lipase activity. Recently, there has been a growing interest in fermentation to enhance rice bran's nutritional profile. It has been confirmed that fermenting rice bran could increase the proportion of crude protein and fat. Moreover, feeding fermented rice bran (FRB) improves the growth performance of food‐producing animals by increasing efficiency. These results, along with their beneficial effect on gut microbiota, may improve the overall health of food animals. In this review, we aimed to summarize the latest research on the fermentation of rice bran, focusing on the role of microorganisms and the factors influencing the quality and nutritional value of FRB. Additionally, we will explore the impact of FRB on nutrient composition and animal performance, highlighting its potential as a valuable feed ingredient.

Published: February 2025

ABSTRACTThe objective of present study was to examine the potential use of pomegranate flower extracts (PFEs) obtained from water and ethanol at antimicrobial doses in nitrite‐reduced chicken sausages. The impact of the extracts on the physicochemical, textural, and sensory attributes of the sausages was evaluated using both reduced doses of nitrite and a nitrite‐free preparation. The results revealed that incorporating PFE resulted in a sixfold and twofold enhancement in total phenolic content and antioxidant activity, respectively. The DPPH radical scavenging activity in sausages produced with ethanol‐based PFE was more than twice as high as in sausages treated with sodium nitrite. Additionally, the combination of low‐dose nitrite with PFE showed a reduction in TBARS values, leading to the prevention of lipid oxidation. Sausages with PFE exhibited lower pH and redness values, while maintaining similar aroma and odor characteristics as the controls. Although there was a slight negative impact on texture, color, and overall acceptability, PFE can be considered a potential alternative for improving bioactive content and oxidative stability of low‐nitrite chicken sausages. The application of PFE could offer a promising opportunity to enhance the nutritional profile and quality attributes of processed meat products.
Using social psychology to create inclusive education
Authors: Easterbrook Matthew J. , Doyle Lewis , Talbot Daniel 
Published: February 2025

AbstractSocial psychological processes related to identities and stereotypes—such as threat, belonging uncertainty, identity incompatibility and bias—can be ignited by features and practices in educational contexts, often further disadvantaging members of minoritised or underrepresented groups. Such psychological processes are consequential and predict hard academic outcomes such as attainment and progression. Although this knowledge can be harrowing, it also gives us the power to intervene. We propose three ways in which social psychology can be used to help create more inclusive education systems: by using interventions wisely, working with teachers to collaboratively create inclusive classrooms, and by fighting bias. We offer concrete examples of how social psychology is helping to reduce educational inequalities in these ways, as well as some suggestions for the future.

ABSTRACTTropical parasitic diseases like leishmaniasis pose significant public health challenges, impacting millions of individuals globally. Current drug treatments for these diseases have notable drawbacks and side effects, underscoring the pressing need for new medications with improved selectivity and reduced toxicity. Through structural modifications of both natural and synthetic compounds using click chemistry, researchers have been able to produce derivatives showing promising activity against these parasites. In this study, 21 novel 1,2,3‐triazole analogues of totarol were synthesized using O‐propargylated totarol derivatives and substituted arylazide. These compounds were characterized through various analytical techniques, including 1H NMR, 13C NMR, and HRMS. An x‐ray crystallographic study of compounds 4 and 6 was carried out to fully establish the structure of the newly prepared totarol derivatives. All synthesized compounds were then screened in vitro for their antileishmanial activities against Leishmania major promastigotes, amastigotes, and Toxoplasma gondii tachyzoites Out of the tested analogues, six compounds (7c, 8b–e, and 9 g) displayed antileishmanial activity against L. major amastigotes with IC50 17.3, 14.2, 13.1 18.2 13.2 and 17.3 μg mL−1 respectively, while only 8e gave antileishmanial activity against both promastigotes and amastigotes with IC50 11.7 and 13.2 μg mL−1 respectively. Additionally, the presence of a nitro group was correlated with enhanced antileishmanial activity. Moreover, a molecular docking study was conducted, focusing on 8e, the most active antileishmanial compound, to elucidate its putative binding pattern at the active site of the selected leishmanial trypanothione reductase target.

ABSTRACTIt was only fitting that when computed tomography (CT) was celebrating its 50th birthday since its maiden scan in 1971, it was also entering into a new generation in 2021 with the Food and Drug Administration's approval of the first photon‐counting detector (PCD)‐CT. As non‐invasive cardiac imaging is evolving into an ever more important medical field, the introduction of this new technology promises a slew of improvements over energy‐integrating detector (EID)‐CTs, most importantly improved spatial resolution in the form of ultrahigh‐resolution (UHR) imaging, reduced radiation exposure, and routinely acquired spectral information. Spatial resolution has historically been a key hurdle for cardiac CT, especially for coronary imaging where structures in the realm of 2 mm need to be assessed. Initial reports on the use of PCD‐CT in cardiac imaging so far have been promising, but many questions ranging from standardized scan protocols to evidence‐based recommendations remain. The aim of this review is to discuss the currently available literature regarding the use of UHR PCD‐CT for cardiac imaging and explore if it has led to changes in guidelines or patient workflows.
Epistemics, Interactional Identities, and Language Ideologies in Debates About Latinx and Latine on Social Media: How Spanish and “Latino” Identity Construction Are Leveraged to Challenge Gender‐Inclusive Identity Labels
Authors: Puterbaugh Benjamin 
Published: February 2025

ABSTRACTThe current study analyzes disalignment strategies in social media users’ metapragmatic discussions centering on the panethnic gender‐inclusive terms Latinx and Latine. Data included 70 comments and replies responding to two posts by the media companies Remezcla and Netflix on Facebook and Instagram, respectively. The study's findings indicate that most users responded negatively to the terms, in many cases reproducing harmful language ideologies. Through careful epistemic management, these users constructed identities as “legitimate” members of the “Latino” speech community. One of the primary discourse strategies identified for doing so was codeswitching between English and Spanish. In this particular context, the strategic deployment of Spanish allowed users to position themselves against gender‐inclusive panethnic labels. Speakers also engaged in aggressive othering strategies to attribute Latinx/e to socially progressive imagined communities. Finally, the study's findings demonstrate how social media users established their authority through tactics of intersubjectivity and, in doing so, policed the language of others.

ABSTRACTCadmium (Cd) pollution significantly hampers cleaner production of peanut (Arachis hypogaea L.). Therefore, exploring of tolerance mechanisms to Cd stress and breeding of low‐Cd peanut cultivars are urgently needed and require intense efforts. Herein, multi‐omics and physiological studies reveal that multiple biological processes, including melatonin (MT) biosynthesis, are involved in the Cd tolerance in peanut plants. Exogenous MT was applied to peanut plants under Cd stress, which decreased Cd accumulation in roots, shoots and seeds for 40%–60%, and promoted the antioxidant capacity. Integrated investigation reveals that MT‐mediated Cd tolerance is mainly attributed to the enhanced metabolism of linolenic acid, glutathione (GSH), and phenylpropanoid (lignin), and development of casparian strip in root cell wall. Defense genes, such as non‐race‐specific disease resistance gene 1/harpininduced gene 1 (NDR1/HIN1)‐like in peanut (AhNHL), were also significantly upregulated by MT under Cd stress. Overexpression of the AhNHL gene in tobacco reduced Cd accumulation for 37%–46%, and alleviated photosynthesis‐inhibition induced by Cd stress. Transcriptomic analysis suggested that AhNHL confers the Cd tolerance mainly through promoting phenylpropanoid biosynthesis and GSH metabolism. Additionally, exogenous GSH effectively alleviated the Cd stress through improving Cd sequestration and antioxidant capacity in peanut plants, while apply of the GSH biosynthesis inhibitor (buthionine sulfoximine) exacerbated the Cd phytotoxicity. Transcriptomic analysis reveals that exogenous GSH improves Cd tolerance through affecting the expression of genes involved in transcription regulation, and metal ion binding and transport. Our findings provide novel insights into molecular mechanisms underlying Cd tolerance in plants, which would facilitate breeding of low‐Cd peanut cultivars.

Published: February 2025

ABSTRACTIn this analytical cross‐sectional method comparison study, we evaluated brain MR images in 30 dogs and cats with and without using a DICOM‐based deep‐learning (DL) denoising algorithm developed specifically for veterinary patients. Quantitative comparison was performed by measuring signal‐to‐noise (SNR) and contrast‐to‐noise ratios (CNR) on the same T2‐weighted (T2W), T2‐FLAIR, and Gradient Echo (GRE) MR brain images in each patient (native images and after denoising) in identical regions of interest. Qualitative comparisons were then conducted: three experienced veterinary radiologists independently evaluated each patient's T2W, T2‐FLAIR, and GRE image series. Native and denoised images were evaluated separately, with observers blinded to the type of images they were assessing. For each image type (native and denoised) and pulse sequence type image, they assigned a subjective grade of coarseness, contrast, and overall quality. For all image series tested (T2W, T2‐FLAIR, and GRE), the SNRs of cortical gray matter, subcortical white matter, deep gray matter, and internal capsule were statistically significantly higher on images treated with DL denoising algorithm than native images. Similarly, for all image series types tested, the CNRs between cortical gray and white matter and between deep gray matter and internal capsule were significantly higher on DL algorithm‐treated images than native images. The qualitative analysis confirmed these results, with generally better coarseness, contrast, and overall quality scores for the images treated with the DL denoising algorithm. In this study, this DICOM‐based DL denoising algorithm reduced noise in 1.5T MRI canine and feline brain images, and radiologists’ perceived image quality improved.
