Authors: Wang Xiaoyue , Sun Lianglong , Liang Xinyuan , Zhao Tengda , Xia Mingrui , Liao Xuhong , He Yong 
Published: January 2024

AbstractThe structural connectome (SC) is tightly coupled to the functional connectome (FC) in the human brain. Most previous related studies have modeled and analyzed SC or FC as isolated brain networks. However, challenges remain in modeling the interdependent structural-functional connectome and elucidating its cognitive implications and molecular underpinnings. Here, we present a multilayer connectome model composed of SC and FC components and further characterize their interacting topological properties. We found that the interdependent connectome is topographically heterogeneous, with the transmodal cortex exhibiting greater modular variability across layers. This spatial topography reflects cortical hierarchy and evolution and shows high test-retest reliability, reproducibility, and heritability. The interdependent connectome contributes to high-order cognitive processes and is associated with multiple neurotransmitter systems and transcriptional signatures of synaptic transmission. Our results provide insights into the nontrivial interdependencies of SC and FC, highlighting their cognitive significance and the molecular mechanisms underlying the connectome of connectomes.
Enhancing online visibility through strategic alliances: the case of bank-FinTech relationships
Authors: Cosma Stefano , Pennetta Daniela 
Published: January 2024

PurposeThis work aims to explore the effects of (equity and non-equity) strategic alliances between banks and FinTechs on FinTechs' online visibility.Design/methodology/approachFor a sample of 124 Italian FinTechs, the authors measured online visibility through their website ranking (Google PageRank) and website traffic (Google Trends). Consistent to the historical depth of these measures, the authors separately investigated the effect of equity and non-equity (contractual) agreements on online visibility by means of ordinal logistic regressions and diff-in-diff analysis.FindingsStrategic alliances with banks enhance FinTechs' online visibility. Although both equity and contractual agreements positively influence the popularity of FinTechs' website achieved through the activity of internal and external online content creators (websites ranking), only equity agreements are effective in attracting Internet users (website traffic).Practical implicationsWhen deciding to interact with banks, FinTechs' managers should consider that equity agreements may be a powerful strategic choice for enlarging the customer base and boosting visibility of FinTechs.Social implicationsFostering strategic alliances between banks and FinTechs contributes to FinTechs' growth, generating virtuous mechanisms of innovation, financial inclusion and better allocative efficiency of the financial system.Originality/valueThis work expands marketing knowledge and literature regarding online visibility determinants, by investigating the benefits of strategic alliances and cooperation in the market, while providing an empirical strategy replicable by future marketing studies.
The importance of rhythms for maintaining consent in diagnostic encounters to detect cervical cancer
Authors: Baxter Lynne , Wright Catherine 
Published: January 2024

AbstractDiagnostic encounters can be seen as complex socio‐material processes. Drawing on the new materialist ideas of Barad, we studied how an innovative technology became part of the intra‐actions between different human and non‐human materialities in a cervical cancer diagnostic process. While researching the development of a technology intended to improve cervical cancer detection, we carried out a series of observations of diagnostic encounters involving clinicians, patients and the device in a hospital. The intra‐actions between the different materialities had rhythmic properties, repeated activities and timings that varied in intensity, for example, movements, exchanged looks, and talk that helped co‐produce the diagnosis and maintain consent. Sadly, the device interfered with the rhythms, undermining the clinicians’ desire to adopt it, despite it being more accurate at diagnosing ill health than previous assistive technologies. Studying rhythms as part of diagnostic encounters could help with the design and subsequent integration of novel technologies in healthcare, because they encompass relationships created by human and non‐human materialities. Importantly, highlighting the role of rhythms contributes another way diagnostic encounters are co‐produced between clinicians and patients, and how they can be disrupted, improving the understanding of how consent is maintained or lost.
The Pad, the ‘Fat’ Belly, and the Politics of Female Appetite
Authors: Goodge Charlotte 
Published: January 2024

Abstract1793 saw the emergence, vogue, and decline of ‘the pad’, a fashionable false belly worn by women under their outer garments. At the time, the pad was most explicitly condemned as a disguise for illegitimate pregnancy and as a distorter of the ‘natural’ female shape — the slender waist. However, as this article will uncover, underpinning these more common critiques of the pad was the suspicion that it concealed and imitated the ‘fat’ female belly. Indeed, as I argue, the unsettling effect of the pad was notably due to the way in which it rendered the female wearer's body illegible, particularly to those who wished to police it.
Armed conflicts and household food insecurity: Effects and mechanisms
Authors: Kafando Wendata A. , Sakurai Takeshi 
Published: January 2024

AbstractDespite extensive studies on the effects of armed conflict on household dietary diversity, food security, and nutritional outcomes, the underlying pathways remain underexplored. A better understanding of these mechanisms could unpack the subsequent effects of conflict‐induced food insecurity and oft‐reported nutritional shortcoming, as well as identify which policy interventions hold promise. We study the effects of terrorist violence in Burkina Faso on household dietary diversity, as proxied by food consumption scores (FCS), and investigate the underlying mechanisms. For this purpose, we combine nationally representative 5‐years panel data on households with spatial conflict data. We find negative and significant effects of conflict intensity on household food consumption scores. The decline in household FCS is a result of significant decreased dietary diversity in both food production and purchases. Although households in rural areas partially offset these reductions by food assistance, those reliant solely on farming as livelihoods remain the most affected. Further investigations show evidence that per‐capita farm income and food expenditure are pathways linking the intensity of armed conflict to reduced FCS in food purchases, whereas reduced dietary diversity in food production results from decline in crop production. Additional specification tests support our main findings, offering insights that can help policymakers faced with similar scaled‐armed conflicts. For instance, conflict‐sensitive interventions aimed at supporting crop production and farm income for affected households could effectively improve their dietary diversity and overall food security in a post‐conflict environment.
Laparoscopic partial splenectomy in distal pancreatectomy may preserve splenic function
Authors: Bell‐Allen Nicholas , McNamara Adam , Bull Nicholas , Lewin Joel , O'Rourke Nicholas 
Published: January 2024

AbstractIntroductionSplenectomy is known to carry a risk of infection with encapsulated organisms and associated sepsis. Current Australian guidelines recommend intensive vaccination schedules and long‐term antibiotic therapy. We postulate that in some clinical scenarios where distal pancreatectomy (DP) and splenectomy is being performed, a partial splenectomy is feasible. This may preserve splenic function and help retain immunocompetence.MethodsFive patients underwent laparoscopic distal pancreatectomy with partial splenectomy (LDPPS). The DP is performed with proximal division and resection of the splenic artery and vein. The inferior portion of the spleen is removed en bloc with the distal pancreas with ligasure and linear cutting staplers. The line of demarcation on the spleen after the division of the splenic artery identifies the portion supplied by the short gastric vessels. Temporary clamping of the short gastrics during splenic parenchymal transection reduces blood loss. All operations were completed laparoscopically and within 4 h.ResultsThe pathology of resected lesions includes a serous cystadenoma, a pseudocyst, an IPMN and two small medial pancreatic ductal adenocarcinomas. The benign lesions involved splenic vessels at the hilum, making Kimura or Warshaw procedures untenable. No patient required blood transfusion. One patient suffered a postoperative collection consistent with postoperative pancreatic fistula requiring a drain for 10 days. Follow‐up ranged from 6 to 24 months. Following surgery, all patients had a perfused splenic remnant on imaging and benign blood films, which suggests retained splenic function.ConclusionPreserving some spleen when performing distal pancreatectomy may provide long‐term benefits for patients.

AbstractDuring official phytosanitary surveys for citrus pests, the Afrotropical citrus leafhopper, Penthimiola bella (Stal) (Hemiptera, Cicadellidae), was found in Andalusia (Southern Spain) and Madeira island (Portugal). This data and tracking of a photo sharing website show that P. bella has been present in the south and east of the Iberian Peninsula and on the island of Madeira since 2017 and 2022, respectively. The species was found throughout the year, mainly in or around citrus plots. Morphological description of adults and some biological notes are provided.
Addiction interprofessional experiences of care: Stress, coping and transformation
Authors: Narciso Isabel , Albuquerque Sara , Nunes Sara 
Published: January 2024

AbstractThis study aimed to explore healthcare professionals' attribution of meaning to the concept of addiction, treatment and recovery. The study was conducted through semi‐structured interviews with 18 healthcare professionals in the field of addiction: nine nurses, six psychologists, a psychiatrist, a social worker and a psychosocial technician. Based on a qualitative methodology, a thematic analysis was performed using the NVivo software. Regarding professional stress, the results revealed several stress factors related to the intervention (e.g. strategic powerlessness and uncertainty of intervention's effectiveness), the addicted individuals (e.g. motivation, difficulties in adhering to treatment, patient behaviour, negative patient emotionality and lack of socio‐economic resources) as well as the healthcare services (e.g. team stress). Adaptive coping strategies were reported, both used in the work context (e.g. cognitive coping strategies and acceptance) and in personal life (e.g. work‐family boundaries and family support and closeness). Despite the professional stress experienced, the participants' narratives indicated positive transformations of the self, which suggests resilient professional trajectories.
Toward a nuanced assessment of the role of intensive home visiting in improving outcomes for families: commentary on Catherine et al. (2023)
Authors: McConnell Margaret Anne 
Published: January 2024

Families' experiences during the transition to parenthood and early childhood profoundly shape the lifetime trajectory of both parents and children, laying the foundation for societal inequities. Intensive home visiting programs, which aim to provide in‐home support to socio‐economically vulnerable parents during the transition to parenthood, are a prominent policy across the globe to provide support to less‐resourced families. In this issue of the Journal of Clinical Psychology and Psychiatry, in their article titled ‘Effectiveness of nurse‐home visiting in improving child and maternal outcomes prenatally to age two years: A randomised controlled trial (British Columbia Healthy Connections Project)’, Catherine et al. provide evidence from a randomized controlled trial of the impact of the Nurse‐Family Partnership in Canada on child injury, language and behavior and birth spacing outcomes. This commentary discusses the paper's contribution and reflects on opportunities and challenges in building a nuanced understanding of the evidence‐base supporting intensive home visiting programs.

AbstractBackgroundPrader–Willi syndrome (PWS), a genetically determined disorder, the most frequent cause of early onset obesity, is associated with physical and cognitive dysfunctions and behavioural disturbances; these disturbances are frequently treated with psychotropic medication. The aim of this cross‐sectional study was to describe the characteristics of the first large national sample of persons with PWS in Spain and analyse the relationships of those characteristics with key demographic and clinical factors, particularly with obesity and the regular use of psychotropic medication.MethodsParticipants were recruited among all members of the Spanish Prader–Willi Association who agreed to take part in the study and fulfilled its inclusion criteria. Family and patient demographic features, family size and birth order, intelligence quotient (IQ), anthropometric measures, lifestyle habits, behavioural disturbances (with the Aberrant Behavior Checklist) and clinical data, as well as use of psychotropic drugs and their side effects (with the UKU scale), were collected in genetically confirmed cases of PWS. Bivariate and logistic regression analyses were used for determining the associations of demographic and clinical factors with both obesity and the regular use of psychotropic medication.ResultsThe cohort included 177 participants (aged 6–48 years), that is, 90 (50.8%) males and 87 (49.2%) females. Behavioural disturbances were present in a range of 75% to 93% of participants; psychotropic medication was prescribed to 81 (45.8%) of them. Number of siblings showed a direct correlation with IQ, especially among males, and inappropriate speech was more intense in only‐child females. Obesity was, in parallel, strongly associated with ascending age and with not being currently under growth hormone (GH) treatment. Participants taking any psychotropic medication were characterised by more frequent age ≥30 years, high level of hyperactivity and a psychiatric diagnosis.ConclusionsCharacterisation of persons with PWS in Spain confirms their physical and behavioural phenotype and supports the long‐term application of GH therapy and the rational use of psychotropic medication.

AbstractBackgroundImprovement in lower esophageal sphincter (LES) competency after laparoscopic Nissen fundoplication (LNF) is well established, yet esophageal body physiology data are limited. We aimed to describe the impact of LNF on whole esophagus physiology using standard and novel manometric characteristics.MethodsA cohort of patients with an intact fundoplication without herniation and no postoperative dysphagia were selected and underwent esophageal manometry at one‐year after surgery. Pre‐ and post‐operative manometry files were reanalyzed using standard and novel manometric characteristics and compared.Key ResultsA total of 95 patients were included in this study. At 16.1 (8.7) months LNF increased LES overall and abdominal length and resting pressure (p < 0.0001). Outflow resistance (IRP) increased [5.8 (3–11) to 11.1 (9–15), p < 0.0001] with a 95th percentile of 20 mmHg in this cohort of dysphagia‐free patients. Distal contractile integral (DCI) also increased [1177.0 (667–2139) to 1321.1 (783–2895), p = 0.002], yet contractile amplitude was unchanged (p = 0.158). There were direct correlations between pre‐ and post‐operative DCI [R: 0.727 (0.62–0.81), p < 0.0001] and postoperative DCI and postoperative IRP [R: 0.347 (0.16–0.51), p = 0.0006]. Contractile front velocity [3.5 (3–4) to 3.2 (3–4), p = 0.0013] was slower, while distal latency [6.7 (6–8) to 7.4 (7–9), p < 0.0001], the interval from swallow onset to proximal smooth muscle initiation [4.0 (4–5) to 4.4 (4–5), p = 0.0002], and the interval from swallow onset to point when the peristaltic wave meets the LES [9.4 (8–10) to 10.3 (9–12), p < 0.0001] were longer. Esophageal length [21.9 (19–24) to 23.2 (21–25), p < 0.0001] and transition zone (TZ) length [2.2 (1–3) to 2.5 (1–4), p = 0.004] were longer. Bolus clearance was inversely correlated with TZ length (p = 0.0002) and time from swallow onset to proximal smooth muscle initiation (p < 0.0001). Bolus clearance and UES characteristics were unchanged (p > 0.05).Conclusions & InferencesIncreased outflow resistance after LNF required an increased DCI. However, this increased contractile vigor was achieved through sustained, not stronger, peristaltic contractions. Increased esophageal length was associated with increased TZ and delayed initiation of smooth muscle contractions.

Published: January 2024

AbstractBackgroundPreterm birth affects between 7% and 8% of births in the UK and is a leading cause of infant mortality and childhood disability. Prevalence of preterm birth has been shown to have significant and consistent socioeconomic inequalities.ObjectiveTo estimate how much of the association between socioeconomic status (SES) and gestational age at birth is mediated by maternal smoking status and maternal body mass index (BMI).MethodsRetrospective cohort study of a maternity hospital in the UK. The analysis included all singleton live births between April 2009 and March 2020 to mothers 18 years old and over, between 22 weeks and 43 weeks gestation. We estimate two measures of mediation for four low gestational age categories: (i) The proportion eliminated the percentage of the effect of SES on low gestational age at birth that would be eliminated by removing the mediators, through the Controlled Direct Effects estimated using serial log‐binomial regressions; and (ii) The proportion mediated is the percentage of the effect removed by equalising the distribution of the mediators across socioeconomic groups, estimated using Interventional Disparity Measures calculated through Monte Carlo simulations.ResultsOverall, 81,219 births were included, with 63.7% low SES. The risk of extremely (0.3% of all births), very (0.7%) and moderately preterm birth (6.3%) was 1.71 (95% Confidence Interval [CI] 1.29, 2.31), 1.43 (95% CI 1.18, 1.73) and 1.26 (95% CI 1.19, 1.34) times higher in the low SES, compared to higher SES respectively. The proportion of this inequality eliminated by removing both maternal smoking and BMI was 43.4% for moderately preterm births. The proportion mediated for smoking was 33.9%, 43.0% and 48.4% respectively.ConclusionsSmoking during pregnancy is a key mediator of inequalities in preterm birth, representing an area for local action to reduce social inequalities in preterm birth.
Consumer experience and outcomes of insertion, removal, and management practices of short and midline peripheral intravenous catheters in acute health care: a mixed methods systematic review protocol
Authors: Nelson Michelle , Coventry Linda , Baker Melanie 
Published: January 2024

Objective:
This review will synthesize and integrate current research on the practices relating to the insertion, removal, and management of short and midline peripheral intravenous catheters on consumer experiences and outcomes in acute health care. The aim is to provide consolidated evidence to support policy decision-makers and health care workers in overcoming peripheral intravenous catheter device management challenges. Implementing the evidence provided by this review could increase positive consumer outcomes and reduce the gap between research evidence and clinical practice.

Introduction:
Peripheral intravenous catheterization is a process in which a device is inserted into a patient’s peripheral vein to administer medication, blood products, and therapeutic fluids. Recent studies have demonstrated the positive and negative impacts of peripheral intravenous catheter site placement, pain relief for insertion, complications, consumer engagement, and routine versus clinically indicated removal of these devices on consumers and the health care system. Managing these impacts in relation to research-practice gaps and conflicting evidence remains challenging. Moreover, consumer experiences and outcomes concerning these challenges are unclear.

Inclusion criteria:
This review will consider quantitative, qualitative, and mixed methods studies on consumer experiences and outcomes in acute health care. The quantitative component will consider outcomes of patients’ pain, satisfaction, anxiety, distress, preferences, fear, and comfort. The qualitative component will consider consumer experiences, including perceptions, preferences, perspectives, attitudes, expectations, and satisfaction.

Methods:
This study will follow JBI’s convergent segregated approach for mixed method systematic reviews. A search of 11 databases will be conducted for peer-reviewed published articles, theses, and dissertations. There will be no age, date, or language limitations.
