AbstractAimMarine biodiversity faces unprecedented threats from anthropogenic climate change. Ecosystem responses to climate change have exhibited substantial variability in the direction and magnitude of redistribution, posing challenges for developing effective climate‐adaptive marine management strategies.LocationThe California Current Ecosystem (CCE), USA.MethodsWe project suitable habitat for 10 highly migratory species in the California Current System using an ensemble of three high‐resolution (~10 km) downscaled ocean projections under the Representative Concentration Pathway 8.5 (RCP8.5). Spanning the period from 1980 to 2100, our analysis focuses on assessing the direction and distance of distributional shifts, as well as changes in core habitat area for each species.ResultsOur findings reveal a divergent response among species to climate impacts. Specifically, four species were projected to undergo significant poleward shifts exceeding 100 km, and gain habitat (~7%–60%) in response to climate change. Conversely, six species were projected to shift towards the coast, resulting in a loss of habitat ranging from 10% to 66% by the end of the century. These divergent responses could typically be characterized by the mode of thermoregulation (i.e. ectotherm vs. endotherm) and species' affiliations with cool and productive upwelled waters that are characteristic of the region. Furthermore, our study highlights an increase in niche overlap between protected species and those targeted by fisheries, which may lead to increased human interaction events under climate change.Main ConclusionsBy providing valuable species distribution projections, our research contributes to the understanding of climate change effects on marine biodiversity and offers critical insight and support for developing climate‐ready management of protected and fished species.

AbstractBackground and aimOur aim was to evaluate the fluoroscopy time (FT), procedure time (PT) safety and efficacy when using intracardiac echocardiography (ICE) in comparison to transesophageal echocardiography (TEE) guidance for transcatheter closure of Ostium Secundum Atrial Septal Defect (OS‐ASD).MethodNinety patients (n = 90) diagnosed with OS‐ASD underwent transcatheter closure between March 2006 and October 2021. Fifty‐seven patients were treated under ICE guidance, while 33 patients were treated under TEE guidance.ResultsMean age was 43 ± 15 years and 42 ± 10 years in the ICE and TEE groups, respectively. The majority of patients had a centrally placed defect. Median FT was 8.40 min versus 11.70 min (p < .001) in the ICE group compared to the TEE group, respectively. Median PT was 43 min versus 94 min (p < .001) in the ICE group compared to the TEE group, respectively. Both ICE and TEE provided high quality images. All interventions were completed successfully, except for one patient in the ICE group who experienced a device migration, the development of atrial tachycardia in one patient and atrial fibrillation in two patients in the ICE group which spontaneously cardioverted. There were no other complications.ConclusionThis study on a consistent cohort of patients with OS‐ASD undergoing percutaneous closure suggests that use of ICE is safe and efficacious. Compared to TEE, ICE demonstrated significantly shorter FT and PT, decreasing the entire duration of the procedure and x‐ray exposure. No relevant differences were observed in terms of success rate and complications.

AbstractBackgroundTechnological progress in the acquisition of medical images and the extraction of underlying quantitative imaging data has introduced exciting prospects for the diagnostic assessment of a wide range of conditions. This study aims to investigate the diagnostic utility of a machine learning classifier based on dual‐energy computed tomography (DECT) radiomics for classifying pulmonary embolism (PE) severity and assessing the risk for early death.MethodsPatients who underwent CT pulmonary angiogram (CTPA) between January 2015 and March 2022 were considered for inclusion in this study. Based on DECT imaging, 107 radiomic features were extracted for each patient using standardized image processing. After dividing the dataset into training and test sets, stepwise feature reduction based on reproducibility, variable importance and correlation analyses were performed to select the most relevant features; these were used to train and validate the gradient‐boosted tree models.ResultsThe trained machine learning classifier achieved a classification accuracy of .90 for identifying high‐risk PE patients with an area under the receiver operating characteristic curve of .59. This CT‐based radiomics signature showed good diagnostic accuracy for risk stratification in individuals presenting with central PE, particularly within higher risk groups.ConclusionModels utilizing DECT‐derived radiomics features can accurately stratify patients with pulmonary embolism into established clinical risk scores. This approach holds the potential to enhance patient management and optimize patient flow by assisting in the clinical decision‐making process. It also offers the advantage of saving time and resources by leveraging existing imaging to eliminate the necessity for manual clinical scoring.

AbstractSimplifying complex species interactions can facilitate tracking and predicting functional responses to ecological stressors. This is important for highly migratory pelagic predators, exploiting diverse prey fields as they respond to dynamic environments. We reconstructed the historical resource use of albacore tuna (Thunnus alalunga) globally from the 1900s to 2015 and confirmed highly biodiverse diets with 308 prey species, and an additional 238 taxa at coarser taxonomic resolution. We synthesised prey diversity into seven functional trait guilds using hierarchical divisive clustering algorithms as a function of four traits that describe habitat use and influence predator–prey encounter rates – prey habitat association vertically in the water column, horizontally along the coastal to pelagic gradient, seasonal and diel vertical migratory behaviour. We explored variability in historical composition of albacore diets across geographies based on species identity, individual trait information and functional trait guilds using a multi‐matrix modelling framework. Taxonomic information remains important for trophic ecology, however, species‐based diet composition in albacore tuna was highly variable across geographies and years sampled, making interpretation of these patterns difficult. By simplifying species identity into habitat‐based traits, we highlight changes in prey resources consumed, such as the historical importance of near‐surface epipelagic prey resources from coastal to oceanic habitats, and seasonally migrating continental shelf prey, with less frequent pulses of deeper water and demersal taxa. Trait information and trait guilds serve as useful classification frameworks for identifying functionally redundant food web linkages across biodiverse prey, and will prove useful in tracking predators' foraging responses to changing resource availability.

AbstractBackgroundPersistent somatic symptoms (PSS) frequently remain under‐treated in health care settings. Evidence‐based services that lead affected individuals to early guideline‐based care are currently missing. This study aimed to identify the needs of those affected concerning an internet‐based guide. The second aim was to evaluate public and patient involvement (PPI).MethodsParticipants experiencing PSS for at least 6 months were recruited via hospitals, psychotherapeutic practices and self‐help organizations. Qualitative data were gathered via ideation discussions and prioritization tasks. Thematic analysis was conducted to gain insight on the needs of people with lived experiences. PPI was quantitatively evaluated with the Public and Patient Engagement Evaluation Tool.ResultsA total of 12 individuals participated (eight females, ages 22–66 years, duration of symptoms 1–43 years). Participants wanted to feel more supported, validated, in control and engaged with managing their health. Content‐related preferences included education, self‐help, social support and contact addresses. The majority of participants (>90%) experienced their involvement as worthwhile.ConclusionsTo the best of our knowledge, this is one of the first studies describing PPI in intervention development for PSS. The involvement was perceived as a valuable contribution to the development process.Patient or Public ContributionAdults with lived experiences were involved at the level of collaboration through the establishment of a participatory research team (PRT) and at the level of consultation through a workshop series, including one of the coauthors. They were involved in developing and validating intervention material and checking data interpretation.
Martin Luther King Jr. and Liberation Theology: James Cone, J. Deotis Roberts, and a Methodology of the Oppressed
Authors: Trudeau George Harold 
Published: December 2023

AbstractAbstract: Martin Luther King's legacy as a Black, Baptist preacher and activist is widely known, but his influence in the public sphere has eclipsed his influence in Black Theology. Additionally, since the Black Power movement succeeded the Civil Rights movement, and thereby the Liberationist movement succeeded the Black Social Gospel movement, the foundations King laid became seamlessly integrated into the theology of James Cone and J. Deotis Roberts. Taking King's social analysis, his concern for crucified peoples, and grassroots activism, Cone and Roberts craft the school of Black Theology. Frederick Ware's book, Methodologies of Black Theology outlined the schools of Black Methodology, including the Black Hermeneutical School, which incorporates indigenous sources to inform theology. Walter Strickland II, building upon Ware, argues the Black Hermeneutical School has three schools of interpretive emphasis: Courthouse, Schoolhouse, and Church House. Cone's theology utilises the methodology of the Courthouse while Roberts utilises the methodology of the Church House. This paper argues that Martin Luther King Jr's activism and theology helped develop Cone and Roberts's Black Theological Method. Roberts carries King's legacy as a pastor‐theologian, and Cone carries King's legacy as a social activist.
Fracture of all‐oxide ceramic composites: Crack path analysis by surface strain monitoring

Published: December 2023

AbstractCrack propagation in ceramic matrix composites is very difficult to observeand to quantify. To investigate crack formation in all‐oxide ceramic composites, single edge notched bending tests were performed including loading‐unloading cycles and online monitoring of surface deformation using digital image correlation. The crack length was calculated by the compliance method with the crack opening displacement determined optically using digital image correlation. Obtained crack length values were found to be too small considering the sample geometry. Secondly, surface strain monitoring was used to investigate the crack growth. Analysis of cyclic force‐crack opening displacement curves and the results from strain monitoring indicated no major crack growth for loads below maximum force but still a moderately decay of force after onset of cracking. Graphical analysis of the surfaces of broken samples showed crack flank lengths ranging from 3 to 6 mm. Due to highly individual crack deflection mechanisms throughout the thickness of the oxide ceramic composites, deviations between front and back of specimens are found. The results demonstrate the necessity to use individual crack length measurements of each specimen for quantitative fracture mechanical evaluation. Strain monitoring during testing was shown to be a valuable tool for online crack path investigation.

AbstractBackgroundImmune reconstitution inflammatory syndrome (IRIS) affecting the central nervous system (CNS) is associated with poor outcomes.AimsTo report on risk factors for CNS‐IRIS following tuberculous meningitis (TBM) in HIV‐negative patients.MethodsIn this retrospective multicentre study, all HIV‐negative adult patients admitted between 2003 and 2021 with microbiologically proven TBM were included. The primary outcome measure was IRIS onset over follow‐up. Characteristics of patients who developed IRIS were described. Factors associated with IRIS were identified using a multivariable logistic regression procedure.ResultsFifty‐six patients (33.0 (27.0–44.3) years, 39 (69.6%) men) with microbiologically proven TBM were studied. All patients received antituberculosis treatment and 48 (n = 48/56; 85.7%) steroids at TBM diagnosis. During a median follow‐up of 18.0 (12.0–27.3) months, IRIS occurred in 28 (n = 28/56, 50.0%) patients, at a median time of 2.0 (1.0–3.0) months after antituberculosis treatment was started. IRIS involved the CNS in all but one case. Imaging revealed new (n = 23/28, 82.1%) and/or worsening (n = 21/28; 75.0%) of previously recognised lesions. Multivariable analysis showed that meningeal enhancement on brain magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) (odds ratio (OR): 15.3; 95% confidence interval (CI): (1.19–1193.5)) at TBM diagnosis and high blood albumin level (OR: 1.21; 95% CI: (1.02–1.60)) were associated with the occurrence of CNS‐IRIS during follow‐up.ConclusionCNS‐IRIS following TBM in non‐HIV patients appears frequent and severe. Meningeal enhancement on brain MRI at tuberculosis diagnosis is a risk factor for CNS‐IRIS.

AbstractBackgroundVarious orodental problems affect patients with inborn errors of immunity (IEI), but there are limited studies on these issues.AimTo study orodental status and its confounding factors in patients with IEI.DesignCaries, enamel defects, gingival, and soft tissue conditions were examined. Data on patient characteristics, dental hygiene habits, dental attendance, and household income were collected. Statistical analysis and logistic regression were performed.ResultsForty‐five participants with a mean age of 9.20 ± 6.41 years were included. Almost all participants had gingivitis (42 of 45; 93.3%), whereas a small number had periodontitis (five of 45; 11.1%). Calculus was found in 33 (73.3%) and caries in 30 (66.7%). Mucosal ulcers, enamel defects, and candidiasis were observed in 23 of 45 (51.1%), 16 of 43 (37.2%), and six of 43 (14.0%), respectively. Chances of having caries, moderate‐to‐severe gingivitis, periodontitis, calculus, and ulcers increased with age. Taking antibiotics in the last two months increased the risk of caries by five times. Lower income increased the risk of calculus deposit by nine times.ConclusionGingivitis, calculus, caries, and mucosal ulcers were the most common orodental findings in patients with IEI. Antibiotics increased the risk of caries, and low‐income children had higher calculus accumulation.
From mutualism to commensalism: Assessing the evolving relationship between complementors and digital platforms

Published: December 2023

AbstractDigital platforms are increasingly dominating markets by bringing together two or more groups of users and facilitating the exchange of value between them. Although several significant issues concerning the dynamics of digital platforms have been addressed, much of the research effort has focused on the platform owner. On the other hand, research on complementors neither takes into account the individual level nor clearly shows what an individual complementor can do to benefit from platform participation. By studying the evolving relationship between YouTube and its ecosystem of complementors (content creators), we shed light on the strategies that complementors use to progressively avoid but still benefit from platform governance. We find that content creators are, first, in a mutual relationship with the YouTube platform, benefiting from direct monetization. Then, they shift to commensalism as the relationship evolves, allowing them to avoid YouTube's governance and take advantage of multi‐homing. Our findings illuminate the effects of platform governance, particularly how it shapes the actions of complementors.

AbstractAimTo synthesize and interpret existing qualitative research on the existential experiences of siblings of children with complex care needs.DesignNoblit and Hare's interpretive meta‐ethnography.MethodsThe study has been registered in the international prospective register for systematic reviews (PROSPERO). Noblit and Hare's 7‐step procedure was followed and reciprocal translation was performed to analyse the data and develop a line of argument synthesis.Data SourcesA comprehensive systematic literature search of five databases, along with extensive manual searches, was completed in November 2022. The final sample comprised 18 studies published between 2010 and 2022.ResultsA line of argument, expressed through an overarching metaphor, “balancing on life's ladder”, illustrates the core findings of siblings' fluctuating experiences of existential well‐being, and encapsulates four third‐order themes: the emotional turmoil of siblings, interrupted family life, siblings strive to be themselves and siblings struggle to cope.ConclusionGrowing up with a sibling with complex care needs made children feel invisible, lonely and struggling to find the courage to cope. By adopting a lifeworld approach, nurses can become aware of healthy siblings' unmet needs. Future research is needed on how nurses can contribute to siblings' existential well‐being, in primary – and secondary health care settings.ImplicationsThe study provides insight into siblings' existential experiences and factors improving their well‐being, enabling nurses to provide a more optimized lifeworld‐led clinical practice.ImpactHealthcare, nursing education and practice should be informed by the knowledge of existential issues. Nurses are well‐positioned to work alongside families to provide family‐centered care. Our findings have implications for health policies tailored to the needs of children with chronically ill siblings.Reporting MethodThis review adheres to the Equator and improving reporting of meta‐ethnography (eMERGe) guidelines.Patient or Public ContributionNo patient or public contribution, because the data comprised previously published studies.

AbstractBackgroundThere are few studies on bullying in skin diseases. Persons with skin diseases are especially prone to bullying.ObjectivesThis component of the project ‘Bullying among Dermatologic Patients’ aimed to study the prevalence and nature of bullying in patients with skin diseases from different countries and age groups.MethodsData were collected from participants of international social media groups for patients with skin diseases, in‐patients and out‐patients with skin diseases, and parents of children with skin diseases from six European countries. School and university students from Poland and Ukraine were asked to answer the question: Have you been bullied because of skin problems?ResultsBullying was reported in 1016 patients with 36 different skin diseases. Prevalence of self‐reported and parental‐reported bullying was quite heterogeneous among different countries In total, self‐reported bullying was noted by 25.6% of patients with skin diseases during face‐to‐face consultations, by 63.7% of respondents from international patients' groups and by 12.2% of school and university students. Parental‐reported bullying was detected in 34.5% of 3–4 years old children with skin diseases. The peak of bullying prevalence occurred between the ages of 13 and 15. The most prevalent forms of bullying were verbal abuse and social isolation. Physical abuse was the least often reported form of bullying. Only 33.2% of participants talked to anyone about being bullied. Negative long‐term effects of bullying were reported by 63% of respondents.ConclusionsSkin disease‐related bullying was reported by patients in all centres of the project. The main manifestations of bullying were similar in different countries and among patients with different skin diseases. International activities aimed to decrease or prevent skin disease‐related bullying in different age groups are needed. These activities should be multidirectional and target teachers, parents of classmates and classmates of children with skin diseases, patients' parents and patients themselves.
