Entrusted power enhances psychological other‐orientation and altruistic behavioural tendencies
Authors: Gobel Matthias S. , Choi Eunsoo , Uchida Yukiko 
Published: January 2025

AbstractFrom the playground to the boardroom, social power profoundly shapes the way people think and behave. Social psychological research has offered a nuanced understanding of the diverse psychological and behavioural tendencies of powerholders. We add to this literature by proposing that powerholders also differ in how they construe the origin of their power. Specifically, we differentiate between perceiving one's power as being based on personal merit and achievement (i.e. achieved power construal) and perceiving one's power as being granted by others (i.e. entrusted power construal). We hypothesised that entrusted power construal, more than achieved power construal, would increase powerholders' psychological other‐orientation—the tendency to take another's perspective and to feel what they feel—and their altruistic behavioural tendencies. Using a multi‐method approach, we tested this prediction across three studies (N = 926). Our findings revealed that powerholders who adopted an entrusted power construal, compared to those who adopted an achieved power construal, exhibited greater psychological other‐orientation and more altruistic behavioural tendencies. We discuss the practical implications of these findings, including how they inform the training of future powerholders to educate them about the reciprocal nature of power.

Published: January 2025

Background and PurposeKidney disease (KD) is a leading cause of mortality worldwide, affecting 〉10% of the global population. Two of the most common causes of KD are diabetes and acute kidney injury (AKI), both of which induce mitochondrial dysfunction resulting in renal proximal tubular damage/necrosis. Thus, pharmacological induction of mitochondrial biogenesis (MB) may provide a therapeutic strategy to block the onset/progression of KD. Here, we evaluated the pharmacological and potential therapeutic effects of a novel MB‐inducing oxindole agent, MC16.Experimental ApproachPrimary cultures of rabbit renal proximal tubule cells (RPTCs) were used to evaluate the cellular signalling and MB‐inducing effects of MC16. Mice were used to determine the MB‐inducing effects of MC16 in vivo, and the metabolic effects of MC16 on the renal cortical metabolome. Mouse models of AKI and diabetic kidney disease (DKD) were used to demonstrate the therapeutic potential of MC16 to ameliorate acute and diabetic nephropathy.Key ResultsMC16 activated the PI3K‐AKT‐eNOS‐FOXO1 axis and induced MB in RPTCs. MC16 induced MB and altered the renal cortical metabolome of mice. MC16 accelerated renal recovery, reduced vascular permeability, and diminished mitochondrial dysfunction following AKI. MC16 decreased diabetes‐induced renal swelling, improved renal and mitochondrial function, and diminished interstitial fibrosis in DKD mouse models.Conclusion and ImplicationsMC16 is a novel compound that induces MB and ameliorates acute and diabetic nephropathy in mice. This study underscores that targeting MB following the onset of renal/metabolic insults may provide a therapeutic strategy to mitigate the onset and/or progression of KD.

ABSTRACTBackgroundTo assess the safety and stability profile of the suprachoroidal retinal prosthesis (ScRP) in participants with retinitis pigmentosa (RP) for 2 years from implantation.MethodsFour participants, with advanced RP and bare‐light perception vision were enrolled in a prospective, single arm unmasked interventional clinical trial and unilaterally implanted with a 44‐channel ScRP (NCT03406416). Electrical stimulation commenced in the psychophysics laboratory prior to use in local environments. Outcome measures included serious adverse events, adverse events, implant stability and implant functionality to assess the safety and stability profile over 2.0–2.7 years.ResultsSurgical procedures took 204–260 min and were uncomplicated. Postoperative recovery was uneventful. Imaging confirmed the device position under the macula and the absence of retinal trauma. There were no serious adverse events and the adverse events that occurred were mild. All electrodes were functional at surgery completion, and only 3% electrodes lost functionality by study end. There was minor array movement (translational and rotational) within the first 10–15 weeks only. The electrode to retina distance increased as expected with fibrous capsule development, but plateaued in three of four participants within 12 months. Retinal and choroidal thicknesses were consistent with the underlying retinal dystrophic disease.ConclusionsThe ScRP can be safely implanted in the suprachoroidal space and has minimal long‐term impacts on the eye, with no SAEs and only slight array movement seen over 2.0–2.7 years. Hence, the findings indicate approach feasibility and further multicentre studies are warranted.

AbstractConservation translocations are a well‐known conservation tool used to reverse the effects of local population extinctions and restore ecosystems. Compared with mammals and birds, plants are underrepresented in translocation programs, and little is known about the potential taxonomic and phylogenetic biases of plant translocation efforts. We aimed to assess how translocated plant species may contribute to the conservation of phylogenetic diversity (PD) among European countries. Focusing on angiosperms across 4 European countries with well‐documented flora and comprehensive sampling of translocated plant species, we determined whether species translocations were related to species conservation status with binomial generalized linear mixed models with threat status as a binary response variable. Then, we evaluated the taxonomic and phylogenetic biases of translocated plant species relative to national floras based on PD and evolutionary distinctiveness (ED). To evaluate PD and ED, we constructed null models to assess the deviation of observed values from those expected under a scenario in which translocated species were randomly sampled from the species pool of national floras in each country. Although most species lacked conservation status assessment, plant translocations mainly targeted species with high extinction risk at national, European, and global scales. Although plant orders with a higher representativeness of translocated species also tended to have a higher representativeness of native species, the probability of species being translocated varied significantly across plant order, suggesting a significant taxonomic bias. Based on null models and considering all countries, PD and mean ED of translocated plants were higher than expected by chance in most countries. These results suggest that although translocation programs were implemented independently across countries, the diversity of translocated plant species is relevant to conserving PD from national to continental scales and restoring evolutionarily distinct species when these species succeed. We argue that PD indicators should be incorporated into translocation planning to restore target species’ evolutionary trajectories and to contribute to conservation of PD.
Wearable sensors in paediatric neurology
Authors: González Barral Camila , Servais Laurent 
Published: January 2025

AbstractWearable sensors have the potential to transform diagnosis, monitoring, and management of children who have neurological conditions. Traditional methods for assessing neurological disorders rely on clinical scales and subjective measures. The snapshot of the disease progression at a particular time point, lack of cooperation by the children during assessments, and susceptibility to bias limit the utility of these measures. Wearable sensors, which capture data continuously in natural settings, offer a non‐invasive and objective alternative to traditional methods. This review examines the role of wearable sensors in various paediatric neurological conditions, including cerebral palsy, epilepsy, autism spectrum disorder, attention‐deficit/hyperactivity disorder, as well as Rett syndrome, Down syndrome, Angelman syndrome, Prader–Willi syndrome, neuromuscular disorders such as Duchenne muscular dystrophy and spinal muscular atrophy, ataxia, Gaucher disease, headaches, and sleep disorders. The review highlights their application in tracking motor function, seizure activity, and daily movement patterns to gain insights into disease progression and therapeutic response. Although challenges related to population size, compliance, ethics, and regulatory approval remain, wearable technology promises to improve clinical trials and outcomes for patients in paediatric neurology.
Complex family negotiations among queer and trans college students of color: A narrative inquiry
Authors: Chan Christian D. , Thacker Darrow Nancy E. , Duran Antonio 
Published: January 2025

AbstractObjectiveThis study explored how queer and trans people of color (QTPOC) college students navigate complex family relationships and understand the contexts that shape their family bonds.BackgroundQTPOC face myriad forces of oppression that complicate their notion of family. Family relationships of QTPOC also reveal cultural nuances in tandem with race, ethnicity, gender identity, and sexuality. For QTPOC college students, college can signify opportunities to create chosen family or navigate relationships with family of origin.MethodUsing a narrative inquiry methodology and the paradigm of intersectionality, this study involved the narratives of nine QTPOC college students using 18 interviews and nine journal entries to elaborate on how they experienced family relationships during college.ResultsFindings revealed complex cultural and family dynamics associated with race, sexual identity, and gender identity. The findings were exemplified in three themes: (a) Defining and Engaging Family as a Constantly Evolving Process; (b) Familial Impact on Identity Development; and (c) Salience of Intersection Between Racial Identity and LGBTQ+ Identity.ConclusionQTPOC college students experience a transitory period that heightens the salience of racism, genderism, and heterosexism and elicits complex negotiations between family of origin and chosen family. Some QTPOC college students renegotiate their notion of family to reinforce their racial, sexual, and gender identities.ImplicationsIt may be prudent for practitioners to consider how certain social identities may be rejected by certain family members and could lead to further types of distress. Practitioners can explore opportunities to maneuver family of origin and discover chosen family in collegiate settings, especially along the lines of race within LGBTQ+ communities.
Fatigue Life Simulation of Short Glass Fiber/Rubber Composites Using the Damage‐Entropy and Self‐Heating Concepts

Published: January 2025

ABSTRACTTo predict the fatigue life of materials under cyclic loading, some research works have used the temperature rise caused by self‐heating. The current paper presents a model based on the damage‐entropy and self‐heating concepts to predict the fatigue life of rubber and rubber composites. To this end, laws of thermodynamics were utilized to relate the material's temperature rise to its damage. The existing entropy‐based model was modified to predict the fatigue life of SFRCs by incorporating the concept of damage entropy. The present model, which considers the material's viscoelastic energy, stored energy, and wasted energy and calculates the damage entropy in each loading cycle, was rigorously tested through an extensive experimental program. The experimental results demonstrated the model's accuracy in predicting the fatigue life of rubber and rubber composites at the applied strain below 88%.
Completing the Speciation Cycle: Ecological Niches and Traits Predict Local Species Coexistence in Birds Across the Globe

Published: January 2025

ABSTRACTAimThe build‐up of local species diversity requires completing the transition from allopatry to sympatry to local coexistence (syntopy). However, understanding processes than enable species arising in allopatry to become syntopic remains an unsolved challenge. Potential explanations include niche conservatism, niche divergence, and energy availability. To gauge their importance, we modelled the effects of species split age, the divergence in beta and alpha niches, specialisation, and resource availability to reveal factors driving the evolution of local species coexistence upon speciation.LocationGlobal.Time PeriodMiocene to the present.Major Taxa StudiedPasserine birds.MethodsWe collated a dataset of 206 passerine sister species pairs, each with their age of divergence; range sympatry; degree of syntopy (derived from 7,257,312 complete eBird checklists falling within the area of range overlap); beta niche divergence (habitats and environmental characteristics); alpha niche divergence (morphology, diet, and foraging stratum); species ecological specialisation (diet and foraging stratum); resource availability; and body mass. We used phylogeny‐informed models to infer which of these factors best explained local species coexistence upon speciation.ResultsThere was a major effect of niche conservatism as species with more similar beta niches (canopy height, vegetation greenness, moisture availability, and habitat affinities) exhibited higher degree of syntopy. Small species with similarly sized beaks and high specialisation on diet were also more likely to coexist locally. In contrast, the divergence or overlap in alpha niches (diet and foraging stratum) did not predict the degree of syntopy. Confirming previous studies, the degree of syntopy strongly increased with increasing range sympatry, while only weakly in older species pairs.Main ConclusionsThe evolution of secondary syntopy is driven by niche conservatism, ecological specialisation, and body mass‐related energy requirements. Consequently, the accumulation of local species richness is facilitated by both conservatism and differentiation along various ecological niche dimensions.

AimsBenign tumours of the rete testis include mostly cystadenomas and adenomas. A subset with tubular or tubulopapillary architecture shows morphological similarities to Sertoli cell tumours; these neoplasms were previously termed “Sertoliform cystadenomas of the rete testis”. In the most recent WHO classification, they have been interpreted as Sertoli cell tumours, not otherwise specified (NOS), with pure intra‐rete growth, and therefore excluded as an entity. The remaining cystadenomas of the rete testis vaguely resemble tumours of Mullerian origin arising in the ovaries. In this study we analyse benign tumours of the rete testis, including a subset with Sertoliform features.Methods and ResultsBenign neoplasms of the rete testis were identified through query of consultation and institutional files. Clinicopathologic data were collected, and available slides were reviewed. Cases were assessed using IHC and three separate DNA sequencing panels. Eleven tumours from patients 32–78 years old were evaluated. Four were classified as Sertoliform adenomas/cystadenomas, displaying tubulo‐papillary or tubular/trabecular architecture; all of them were PAX8‐positive and lacked nuclear beta‐catenin expression. The remaining seven tumours were benign cystadenomas NOS. Genomic analysis was performed successfully in 10/11 tumours (including all Sertoliform adenomas/cystadenomas) and revealed no pathogenic variants in CTNNB1, KRAS, or BRAF.ConclusionSertoliform cystadenomas of the rete testis differ from Sertoli cell tumours NOS, as evidenced by the absence of molecular markers characteristic of Sertoli cell tumours. The remaining benign cystadenomas lack molecular alterations seen in Mullerian tumors of the ovaries.

AbstractAimEndodontic conditions are associated with severe odontogenic infections. However, no studies have explicitly explored their role in the infectious process. This study aimed to assess associations between tooth‐related and patient‐related factors resulting in severe odontogenic infections and clinical care needs.MethodologyA retrospective audit was conducted of all records of patients who presented with severe odontogenic infections requiring admission between 2018 and 2023, at the largest public hospital in South Australia. Pericoronitis, postoperative, and non‐odontogenic infections were excluded. Associations between tooth‐related factors (type, location, presence/absence of caries, restorations, root canal filling, apical periodontitis, and space of infection), patients‐related factors (diabetes and smoking statuses), clinical management (length of admission, intensive care unit admission number of days, and need for general anaesthesia) were explored. χ2, Mann–Whitney's test and Fisher's exact test were used for statistical analysis, and the level of statistical significance was set at 5%.ResultsOf 382 records identified, 189 met the inclusion criteria. Mandibular (95.8%) molars (92.1%) were the most commonly offending teeth. Eight (4.2%) were root canal filled, 27 (14.3%) restored, 166 carious (87.8%), and 181 (95.8%) were associated with an apical radiolucency. Over half the sample were smokers (56.9%) and 16.4% were diabetics. The most common infection involved the submandibular space (56.1%). Intensive care unit admission was required for 157 patients (83.1%), and stay depended on the space of infection, with buccal space having the shortest duration (median 1 day) compared with submandibular (median 4 days) (p < .001). Need for general anaesthesia was associated with Ludwig's angina (n = 3, 100%) (p = .04) and submandibular space infection (n = 104, 98.1%) (p < .001), plus intensive care unit admission (p < .001). Conversely, for buccal space infection, the need for general anaesthesia was lower (n = 5, 23.8%). No further significant differences were found.ConclusionUntreated mandibular molars with apical periodontitis were the most frequent tooth‐related findings. Results from the present study suggest associations between the most severe clinical presentations (Ludwig's angina and submandibular infection) and complexity in clinical care. Buccal space infections required the least complex management.
A Missiological Exploration of Luke 4:18 and the Challenge of Caste Discrimination in Seventh‐day Adventist Churches of India
Authors: Kumar Santosh 
Published: January 2025

AbstractThis article expands on a prior study on caste discrimination in the Seventh‐day Adventist (SDA) Church in India. Rooted in a missiological framework, it examines the transformative potential of Luke 4:18 in addressing the challenges faced by marginalized communities in the SDA context. The article draws on findings from earlier qualitative research on historical roots, missiological perspectives, and the relevance of biblical passages to inform a narrative inquiry approach on the hermeneutics of Luke 4:18. By aligning the text with complementary passages, it delves into the historical trajectory of caste discrimination within SDA churches and revisits the contemporary challenges faced by marginalized members. This article highlights the crucial roles of church leadership and educational initiatives in fostering inclusivity and combatting discrimination by integrating a hermeneutical lens into actionable strategies. Finally, it contributes to ongoing discussions on social justice and equality in religious communities, offering a nuanced perspective informed by both qualitative insights and hermeneutical exploration.
Shattering the Ceilings of Power Like the Syrophoenician Woman
Authors: Adera Godfrey Owino , Mombo Esther 
Published: January 2025

AbstractIn this paper, we revisit three hallmarks of coloniality of power – control, influence, and access to resources – and their interplay in shaping and framing Anglican witness and presence in the world today. We contend that, although the growth of Anglicanism in the global South, particularly in Africa, represents a notable demographic shift within the Anglican Communion, it does not translate to shifts in control, influence, and access to resources. As a result, colonial legacies of Anglican witness that conferred power to whiteness and maleness and assigned powerlessness and ‘otherness’ to lives and faith experience outside the categories of whiteness and maleness still pervade relationships within the communion. With reference to the “decolonial” encounter of Jesus with the Syrophoenician woman in the gospels (Mark 7:24‐30 and Matt. 15:21‐28), we reimagine Anglican witness as with‐ness. This is a kenotic praxis and a decolonial alternative that would enable theologies of decentralization of power, a polycentric system of control, and an ethic of kenotic accompaniment, acceptance, and inclusion of lives and faith experiences outside the frames of whiteness and maleness in the Anglican Communion.
Decolonizing the Triune God

AbstractThis article aims to propose a “two‐way” decolonial reading of the trinitarian approaches within the Latin American liberation theologies: as a critique and as a framework to enhance some of its assumptions. Hence, the article will develop some of the most recognized approaches to this issue within these liberation theologies to identify possible theological and socio‐political decolonial rereadings from the particular approach of the trinitarian.
Covalent Bruton tyrosine kinase inhibitors across generations: A focus on zanubrutinib

Published: January 2025

AbstractBruton tyrosine kinase (BTK), the primary target of BTK inhibitors, is a key enzyme in the proliferation and survival pathway of neoplastic B‐cells. BTK inhibitors are approved in many hematologic malignancies: chronic lymphocytic leukaemia, mantle cell lymphoma, marginal zone lymphoma, Waldenström macroglobulinaemia and follicular lymphoma. Second‐generation BTK inhibitors display high target selectivity thus resulting in a reduction in off‐target and off‐tissue effects, better therapeutic index and improved tolerability. This paper summarizes the mechanisms of action of first and second generation BTK inhibitors and elucidates results in any disease setting, with a precise focus on zanubrutinib.
