Baby steps of parenting: Turkish adaptation of Infancy Parenting Styles Questionnaire and mother‐ and infant‐related characteristics affecting parenting in infancy
Authors: Bahtiyar‐Saygan Bahar 
Published: February 2025

AbstractThe crucial importance of parenting for human development is well known, yet there has been little investigation, particularly regarding infancy parenting. This study investigates mother‐ and infant‐related characteristics affecting parenting styles in the first year after birth. Additionally, adapting an Infancy Parenting Styles Questionnaire (IPSQ) to Turkish is aimed. In total, 110 mothers with babies in the first year of their lives (Mage in months = 6.39, SDage in months = 3.72; 70 girls) participated in the study. Mothers filled out the IPSQ, Early Parenting Attitudes Questionnaire (EPAQ), Karitane Parental Self‐Confidence Scale (KPSC), and Parental Stress Index‐Short Form (PSI‐SF). Four components emerged: involvement, discipline, anxiety, and routine. The IPSQ was found to be reliable (α = .81) and valid. The findings revealed that income, the number of children, and parental confidence were significant predictors for involvement; maternal education, parental confidence, parenting stress, and sleep wellness of the baby were significant predictors for discipline; and the number of caregivers and parental confidence were significant predictors for routine sub‐components. Also, results indicated higher involvement and lower discipline in primiparous compared to multiparous mothers. The findings were discussed in light of the literature regarding the antecedents of parenting and its developmental outcomes.

ABSTRACTTiO2 nanoparticles (NPs) are extensively used in various applications, highlighting the importance of ongoing research into their effects. This work belongs among rare whole‐body inhalation studies investigating the effects of TiO2 NPs on mice. Unlike previous studies, the concentration of TiO2 NPs in the inhalation chamber (130.8 μg/m3) was significantly lower. This 11‐week study on mice confirmed in vivo the presence of TiO2 NPs in lung macrophages and type II pneumocytes including their intracellular localization by using the electron microscopy and the state‐of‐the‐art methods detecting NPs' chemical identity/crystal structure, such as the energy‐dispersed X‐ray spectroscopy (EDX), cathodoluminescence (CL), and detailed diffraction pattern analysis using powder nanobeam diffraction (PNBD). For the first time in inhalation study in vivo, the alterations in erythrocyte morphology with evidence of echinocytes and stomatocytes, accompanied by iron accumulation in spleen, liver, and kidney, are reported following NP's exposure. Together with the histopathological evidence of hyperaemia in the spleen and kidney, and haemosiderin presence in the spleen, the finding of NPs containing iron might suggest the increased decomposition of damaged erythrocytes. The detection of TiO2 NPs on erythrocytes through CL analysis confirmed their potential systemic availability. On the contrary, TiO2 NPs were not confirmed in other organs (spleen, liver, and kidney); Ti was detected only in the kidney near the detection limit.

Published: February 2025

AbstractThe range and density of one of North America's most destructive and invasive mammalian species, wild pigs (Sus scrofa), has expanded rapidly over the past several decades. Alongside this growth, their fecal contamination of surface waters has impaired water quality through significantly increased levels of pathogenic bacteria, raising concerns over the potential for zoonotic disease transmission. Significant remediation of these water quality impacts has been shown as a result of reductions in wild pig populations due to control efforts; however, the duration of these remediation effects as populations rebound remains unclear. Our study sought to determine the longevity of water quality remediation resulting from wild pig population control efforts. We found that median concentrations of Escherichia coli and fecal coliform (CFU/100 mL) increased by 746% and 159% in the year following the conclusion of removal efforts, resulting in median concentrations of 79% and 159% greater than those observed prior. We also found increased public health risk, with samples exceeding E. coli and fecal coliform guidelines 10% and 12% more often than pre‐removal, respectively. While further research into wild pig population dynamics and fecal contamination is necessary, we conclude that ongoing population control efforts may be necessary to remediate water quality impacts and public health risks associated with invasive wild pigs.

Published: February 2025

ABSTRACTScanning electron microscopy (SEM) is a fundamental technique to study the morphology of anuran embryos and tadpoles. Here, we present a drying method for SEM imaging of late frog embryos using commonly available dehydration solvents such as ethanol or methanol, xylene, and applying low temperature vacuum freeze drying. Briefly, embryos from early embryonic gills development to hatching were fixed with a paraformaldehyde—glutaraldehyde mix, then dehydrated to ethanol or methanol, and then slowly dried using low temperature and constant vacuum pressure. An extra step of clearing using xylene after ethanol dehydration improved results considerably. Our protocol successfully preserved embryo shape and the morphology of fragile and delicate superficial structures (e.g., external embryonic gills, apical ectodermal microridges and surface ciliation), while avoiding the use of some SEM toxic reagents.

ABSTRACTThis study aims to identify the risk factors associated with clinical outcomes and the proteomic changes in organs related to fatal SARS‐CoV‐2 infection within the super‐elderly population. This retrospective analysis included all elderly individuals with COVID‐19 admitted to the Second Medical Center of PLA General Hospital from December 2022 to January 2023. The follow‐up period ended on March 30, 2023. During this time, epidemiological, demographic, laboratory, and outcome data were analyzed descriptively. Proteomic sequencing was performed on super‐elderly patients who died from COVID‐19 at different stages of the disease. A total of 352 elderly COVID‐19 patients, with a mean age of 89.84 ± 8.54 years, were included in this study. During a median follow‐up period of 98 days, 79 patients died. Deceased patients were older and more likely to have cardiovascular and cerebrovascular diseases, with a lower prevalence of lipid‐lowering therapy. The number of deaths in the acute and post‐acute phases were 34 and 45, respectively. Proteomics data suggest that the immune systems of patients who died in the acute phase underwent a more rapid and severe onslaught. Patients in the post‐acute phase showed higher levels of viral genome replication and a more robust immune response. However, the over‐activation of the immune system led to systemic organ dysfunction. Effective management of comorbidities may improve the prognosis of COVID‐19 in super‐elderly patients. The continuous replication of the SARS‐CoV‐2 virus and its subsequent impact on the immune system are critical determinants of survival time in this demographic.

AbstractObjectivesThis systematic review and meta‐analysis evaluated the effectiveness of nasogastric versus orogastric tube feeding on feeding performance in preterm neonates.MethodsRandomized, quasi‐randomized, and cross‐over trials published in peer‐reviewed journals with no language or country restrictions were included. Preterm neonates (<37 weeks) receiving nasogastric or orogastric enteral feeding until full oral feeds were established formed the exposure and comparison groups. Primary outcome: time to achieve full enteral feeding; secondary outcomes: feeding performance, growth, and adverse events. A comprehensive literature search across multiple databases was conducted up to January 2024. Two authors independently screened studies, assessed the risk of bias, and performed a meta‐analysis using a random effects model. Evidence levels were determined following Grades of Recommendation, Assessment, Development, and Evaluation guidelines.ResultsSix studies, including 273 preterm neonates, were included. Nasogastric feeding reduced the time to achieve full enteral feeds compared to orogastric feeding (mean difference [MD], −1.62 days; 95% confidence interval [CI], −2.25 to −0.99 days) with very low certainty of evidence. Combined episodes of bradycardia and desaturation per hour were higher in nasogastric feeding than orogastric feeding (MD, 0.24; 95% CI, 0.14–0.34), as were episodes of bradycardia (MD, 0.08; 95% CI, 0.04–0.13) and desaturation (MD, 0.16; 95% CI, 0.10–0.22). No significant differences were found in time to regain birth weight, apnea, necrotizing enterocolitis, or sepsis.ConclusionsNasogastric tube feeding reduces the time to achieve full enteral feeds but increases episodes of bradycardia and desaturation compared to orogastric feeding in preterm neonates. Cautious interpretation is required as the low to very low certainty evidence highlights the need for larger, well‐designed trials for evidence‐based recommendations.

AbstractLead halide metal−organic frameworks (MOFs) possess unique advantages in preparing single‐component white‐light‐emitting (WLE) materials due to their broadband emission based on self‐trapping excitons (STEs). However, in order to obtain high‐quality white light emission, challenges remain in adjusting and optimizing the color temperature and color coordinates of broadband STE emission. Herein, we have achieved tunable color emission and high‐quality white light emission with Commission International de l'Eclairage coordinates of (0.32, 0.38) and color temperature of 5777 K at ambient conditions in TMOF‐8(Cl) through pressure treatment. The irreversible lattice distortion after pressure treatment reduces the distance between [PbCl]+ unit and TDC2− unit. The enhanced hydrogen bonding interactions and electronic coupling between the Pb‐s orbitals and ligand energy levels turn on the charge transfer (CT) channel from [PbCl]+ unit to TDC2− unit. Adjusting the degree of lattice distortion can achieve the regulation of the relative intensity of STE and CT emission, thereby obtaining tunable color emission and high‐quality white light emission. This study provides a new perspective on the modulation of broadband STE emission in MOFs materials and a new platform for the development of high‐quality single‐component WLE materials.
Legg‐Calvé‐Perthes Disease: Past and Present
Authors: Frederick Ryan , Ponce Paola 
Published: February 2025

ABSTRACTLegg–Calvé–Perthes disease (LCPD) is a rare idiopathic condition that primarily affects the femoral head. It is characterized by a sudden necrosis, which leads to permanent and irreversible changes of its normal anatomy. Likely due to its rarity and complex etiology, there is a lacuna of its study in archaeological literature. This paper attempts to address this issue by aiming to (1) gather all known examples of LCPD in the archaeological record worldwide; (2) based on etiological speculation, analyze how individuals may have developed LCPD in the past; (3) assess how LCPD may have affected these individuals; and (4) how they may have managed the effects. In this study, a wide range of resources pertaining to archaeology, osteology, paleopathology, and clinical studies were consulted. The information was extracted from a number of available case studies and osteological site reports despite data‐access difficulties. In the archaeological record, there are 73 reported cases of LCPD affecting individuals, spanning from the Neolithic to the Postmedieval period, across the globe, with its highest peak in the Late Medieval period. Modern clinical literature has provided an empirical platform to investigate what may have caused LCPD in the past, though etiological conjecture continues to prevent any certainty in these extrapolations. The resulting prevalence of the cases of LCPD are also skewed by issues concerning skeletal preservation and inaccessible data, ultimately affecting its representation and the evaluation of the disease's laterality and sex preponderance. Nonetheless, physical debilitation caused by LCPD would have variably inhibited the individuals' mobility, causing pain, compromised quality of life, decline in mental state, and an inability to fully engage in ambulatory activities. However, coexisting osteological markers suggest methods of managing the disease's symptoms, such as resorting to an antalgic gait and/or using upper limb apparatus (crutch).

AbstractObjectiveThe term “active larynx” is a nonspecific and subjective term used by otolaryngologists to describe laryngeal inflammation that can influence the timing of airway reconstruction. We sought to measure the reliability of visual assessments of laryngeal inflammation for later scale development.Study DesignA cross‐sectional study.SettingPediatric tertiary care center.MethodsWe created an image library from a direct laryngoscopy and bronchoscopy database. Blinded judges were asked to rate the characteristics of laryngeal inflammation (edema, erythema, cobblestoned appearance, and ventricular eversion; 5‐point Likert scale), the overall “activeness” of the larynx (10‐point scale), and whether laryngeal inflammation would influence a delay in reconstructive surgery (yes/no). A tentative scale was also constructed. Intraclass correlations with 2‐way random effects, and Fleiss's κ were used to evaluate interrater reliability. The convergent and discriminant validity of the tentative scale were measured.ResultsThree pediatric otolaryngologists reviewed 15 larynges for a total of 45 image ratings. Intraclass coefficients indicated substantial agreement for edema (0.76) and erythema (0.83) and moderate agreement for ventricular eversion (0.58). Cobblestoning had low agreement (intraclass correlation coefficient [ICC] < 0.20). The agreement was substantial for overall “activeness” (ICC 0.76) and moderate for whether inflammation would delay surgery (ICC 0.47). By Fleiss's κ, edema and erythema had moderate agreement (0.50 and 0.61, respectively), whereas all others had poor agreement. The convergent and discriminant validity of the tentative scale were reassuring.ConclusionWhile the reliability of laryngeal inflammation by visual assessment is variable, the creation of an active larynx scale appears feasible.

ABSTRACTAimOral cavity is composed of teeth, gums, tongue, mucous membranes, and other components, with the tongue being an important organ in dentistry. In Oriental medicine, the condition of the tongue is highly emphasized for assessing overall health, diseases, and bodily states. In this study, we evaluated the condition of the tongue to describe its varied characteristics.MethodsWe evaluated the condition of 43 healthy adults without underlying medical conditions or medication. Photographic documentation of participant's tongue were taken and multiple physicians and dentists performed tongue examinations based on them. The evaluation was based on several criteria, including tongue quality, morphology, color, moisture level, thickness, and shape of the tongue coating.ResultsThere was no significant difference in the condition of the tongue and tongue coating between males and females, both genders showed a higher incidence of tongue enlargement and tooth marks compared to normal observations. Even in individuals without awareness or symptoms, an irregular condition of the tongue was observed in a certain percentage through tongue examination.ConclusionTongue examination proves to be a simple and valuable diagnostic tool, and the observation of the tongue is a familiar practice, especially for oral healthcare professionals. By paying a little more attention to the tongue during routine dental examinations, the study suggests the potential for early detection of diseases or changes in health.
A Note on the Local Observability of Uniform Hypergraphs
Authors: Gerbet Daniel , Röbenack Klaus 
Published: February 2025

ABSTRACTHypergraphs generalize graphs in such a way that edges may connect any number of nodes. If all edges are adjacent to the same number of nodes, the hypergraph is called uniform. Thus, a graph is a 2‐uniform hypergraph. Each uniform hypergraph can be identified with an autonomous dynamical state‐space system, whose vector field is composed of homogenous polynomials. We consider the observability of dynamical systems, which possess this special structure. In control theory, the observability of a dynamical system asks for the possibility to reconstruct the systems state from an output trajectory, where the output is a projective measurement of the systems state. In addition, one can ask for the observable subspace of the state. Nonlinear systems, although observable at almost all points in the state space, may possess not‐locally observable ones. The existence and location of such states are important for observability analysis and observer design. Recently, the observability of these hypergraph systems has been studied for the general case. We apply an extended deterministic observability test to uniform hypergraphs and also compute the not‐observable states for different linear output maps. We are able to confirm the results of the recent study, at least for graphs with a small number of nodes, due to the computational complexity of our method. In addition, the not‐locally observable states are computed for different combinations of measured nodes.
What constitutes sustainable agriculture for different audiences in Germany? A comparative analysis of large‐scale text data

Abstract

Agriculture contributes in several ways to achieving sustainability objectives. However, there is no agreement among different societal groups, such as farmers, consumers and scientists, on what constitutes ‘sustainable agriculture’. These differences affect how the impacts of agricultural production on sustainability objectives is perceived, which solutions are considered and implemented.

In this paper, we investigate the topics discussed under the heading ‘sustainable agriculture’ in German newspapers and agricultural magazines. To this end, we apply topic modelling to extract topics discussed in these two large‐scale text corpora. We complement these with scientific articles as a contrast case. We run separate topic models for each corpus and use the identified topics to compare the patterns qualitatively.

Results reveal heterogeneity in the topics across the three corpora with limited overlaps restricted to topics such as agricultural policy. This supports the assumption that farmers and the broader society in Germany have very different perceptions of sustainable agriculture. A surprising result is the absence of topics related to climate change from the agricultural magazine corpus.

These disparities may create challenges for designing and implementing democratically legitimized policies to promote sustainable agriculture.
