Self‐uniquenessincreases women's willingness to participate in collective action for gender justice, but not support for sex quotas
Authors: Vázquez Alexandra , López‐Rodríguez Lucía 
Published: March 2023

AbstractAffiliation with certain groups allows to simultaneously satisfy two competing needs: the need to be moderately different from others and the need to belong. We propose that the feminist movement, that has been turning towards individualistic goals based on individual empowerment, may be one of such groups for women. In three studies we examined the relationship between self‐uniqueness and women's support for collective action and structural measures (i.e. sex quotas) promoted by the feminist movement. A first correlational study indicated that self‐uniqueness need is positively associated with willingness to participate in collective action for gender justice generally, but not with support for sex quotas. Consistently, two experimental studies (Studies 2–3) found that priming self‐uniqueness increases collective action intentions, but not quota support. Study 3 also showed that the effect of self‐uniqueness on collective action intentions for gender justice may be mediated by greater perceptions of personal discrimination for being a woman and fusion with the feminist movement. These results suggest that appeals to self‐uniqueness may attract women to the feminist movement but do not guarantee support for concrete collective measures against gender inequality.
Does evidentiality support source monitoring and false belief understanding? A cross‐linguistic study with Turkish‐ and English‐speaking children
Authors: Kandemirci Birsu , Theakston Anna , Boeg Thomsen Ditte , Brandt Silke 
Published: March 2023

AbstractThis study investigates the impact of evidentiality on source monitoring and the impact of source monitoring on false belief understanding (FBU), while controlling for short‐term memory, age, gender, and receptive vocabulary. One hundred (50 girls) monolingual 3‐ and 4‐year‐olds from Turkey and the UK participated in the study in 2019. In Turkish, children's use of direct evidentiality predicted their source monitoring skills, which, in turn, predicted their FBU. In English, FBU was not related to source monitoring. Combined results from both languages revealed that Turkish‐speaking children had better FBU than English‐speaking children, and only for Turkish‐speaking children, better source monitoring skills predicted better FBU. This suggests an indirect impact of evidentiality on FBU by means of source monitoring in Turkish.

AbstractSerpula himantioides is a widely distributed saprotrophic fungus that causes root and butt rot in various tree species. In Japan, butt rot associated with S. himantioides is observed in Chamaecyparis pisifera and Abies sachalinensis. Previous studies have shown that S. himantioides includes five phylogenetically defined cryptic lineages, but the placement of Japanese isolates remains unclear. To clarify the phylogenetic relationship between Japanese S. himantioides and the five known lineages, we conducted a phylogenetic analysis using three newly collected Japanese isolates along with 74 S. himantioides isolates, based on the internal transcribed spacer (ITS) region, the 28 S large subunit (LSU) rDNA, the beta‐tubulin (tub) gene, and the heat stress protein (hsp) gene. The concatenated phylogenetic tree showed that Japanese isolates composed a clade with a high bootstrap value distinct from the known lineages, indicating the Japanese isolates present a new cryptic lineage of S. himantioides.
Patterns of hemispheric compromise in primary progressive apraxia of speech: From clinical profiling to differential diagnosis
Authors: García Adolfo M. 
Published: March 2023

AbstractIn this issue of European Journal of Neurology, Robinson et al. present a novel study on primary progressive apraxia of speech. The authors describe different clinicopathological profiles in patients with left‐dominant, right‐dominant, and bilateral atrophy of the supplementary motor area and lateral premotor cortex. This commentary discusses the importance of this evidence for understanding individual differences among these patients, distinguishing them from those with nonfluent variant primary progressive aphasia, and analyzing the relations between motor speech deficits and underlying pathology.

Published: March 2023

AbstractObjectiveThe aim was to examine the relationship between caregiver's mental health (parental psychological distress, and parenting stress), dysfunctional parenting (lax or overreactive parenting), and the screen media use in understanding attention‐deficit/hyperactivity disorder (ADHD) symptoms of children within an integrated model framework.BackgroundFamilial factors and screen use have shown to be significantly related to ADHD in children. However, theoretical models of the role of family environment, screen use, and ADHD have rarely been tested jointly, and little is known about these associations in southeastern European middle‐income countries (MICs).MethodData from 835 primary caregivers (92% biological mother, 4% biological father, 3% grandmother or grandfather, 1% other) of children (2 to 9 years) from three MICs were analyzed using path analyses, and models were tested for generalizability across education levels and marital status using multigroup analyses. ADHD‐related symptoms were assessed with a structured clinical interview (Mini International Neuropsychiatric Interview for Children and Adolescents–Parent Version [MINI‐KID‐P]) and the Child Behavioral Checklist (CBCL).ResultsWhereas screen use was directly associated with ADHD symptoms across measures, a significant indirect effect of lax parenting on attentional problems via screen use was found only for the CBCL parent report. The final models were tested using multigroup analyses across education levels and marital status with no significant differences.ConclusionInvestments in resource and capacity building for children's primary caregivers that target lax parenting and limiting of screen use may impact children's attentional problems across educational levels and married and nonmarried caregivers.

Published: March 2023

AbstractBenzodiazepines (BZDs) are the first‐line treatment of alcohol withdrawal. Comorbidity between benzodiazepine use disorder (BUD) and alcohol use disorders (AUD) is common. However, the risk factors are poorly characterized due to the paucity of available BUD screening tools. The present study aimed to rectify this by conducting an observational screening investigation for BUD in patients hospitalized for alcohol detoxification in a specialized unit. During a face‐to‐face interview, a short BUD screening tool, Echelle Cognitive d'Attachement aux benzodiazépines (ECAB), was administered to record recent patterns of BZD use, thereby allowing categorization of AUD patients as follows: non‐BZD users, BZD users without BUD, and BUD (ECAB ≥6). Clinical and sociodemographic risk factors were identified and recorded during clinical assessment and were analyzed using nonparametric bivariate tests and multinomial regression for association with BUD, with p < 0.05 for significance. Of the 150 AUD patients, 23 (15%) had comorbid BUD. Several variables were associated with ECAB score, with their independence being verified using multinomial regression, with lower risk of BUD versus BZD use, when the initial prescriber was an addiction specialist compared with a psychiatrist or a general practitioner [odds ratio (OR) = 0.12, 95% confidence interval (CI) = 0.14–0.75]. A higher risk of BZD use versus no use was evident when comorbid psychiatric disorders were present (OR = 9.2, 95%CI = 1.3–65). Our findings raise clinicians' awareness that in patients hospitalized for alcohol detoxification, BUD is highly prevalent but not specifically related to psychiatric disorders. BUD can be effectively screened by utilization of the ECAB.
Protected areas not likely to serve as steppingstones for species undergoing climate‐induced range shifts

AbstractSpecies across the planet are shifting their ranges to track suitable climate conditions in response to climate change. Given that protected areas have higher quality habitat and often harbor higher levels of biodiversity compared to unprotected lands, it is often assumed that protected areas can serve as steppingstones for species undergoing climate‐induced range shifts. However, there are several factors that may impede successful range shifts among protected areas, including the distance that must be traveled, unfavorable human land uses and climate conditions along potential movement routes, and lack of analogous climates. Through a species‐agnostic lens, we evaluate these factors across the global terrestrial protected area network as measures of climate connectivity, which is defined as the ability of a landscape to facilitate or impede climate‐induced movement. We found that over half of protected land area and two‐thirds of the number of protected units across the globe are at risk of climate connectivity failure, casting doubt on whether many species can successfully undergo climate‐induced range shifts among protected areas. Consequently, protected areas are unlikely to serve as steppingstones for a large number of species under a warming climate. As species disappear from protected areas without commensurate immigration of species suited to the emerging climate (due to climate connectivity failure), many protected areas may be left with a depauperate suite of species under climate change. Our findings are highly relevant given recent pledges to conserve 30% of the planet by 2030 (30 × 30), underscore the need for innovative land management strategies that allow for species range shifts, and suggest that assisted colonization may be necessary to promote species that are adapted to the emerging climate.
Challenges in oral health research for older adults
Authors: Allen Finbarr , Tsakos Georgios 
Published: March 2023

BackgroundThe high burden of chronic disease in older adults presents significant organisational and funding challenges to healthcare policymakers. However, it is a matter of debate whether research is informing oral healthcare policy at scale.ObjectiveThe objective of the study was to identify barriers to translation of research into oral healthcare policy and practice for older adults and suggest strategies to address these barriers.ResultsThe effectiveness of current models of oral health care, particularly for vulnerable older adults with special needs, is not well established. Researchers need to engage more proactively with stakeholders such as policymakers and end‐users from the study design phase. This is particularly relevant for research in residential care settings. Building a rapport and developing trust with these groups will enable researchers to align their research with the priorities of policymakers. The evidence‐based care paradigm, which is underpinned by randomised clinical trials (RCTs), may not be practical in population oral health research involving older adults. Alternative methods should be considered to develop an evidence‐informed paradigm for oral health care in older adults. Since the pandemic, there are opportunities to use electronic health record data and digital technology. Further research is needed to evaluate the effectiveness of tele‐health in oral health of older adults.ConclusionUse of a wider range of co‐designed studies rooted in the practicalities of “real world” health service delivery is recommended. This may address issues of concern to policymakers and stakeholders regarding oral health and increase the likelihood of translation of geriatric oral health research into oral healthcare policy and practice.

Published: March 2023

AbstractBackgroundCardiopulmonary resuscitation (CPR) is internationally defined as chest compressions and rescue breaths, and is a subset of resuscitation. First used for out‐of‐hospital cardiac arrest, CPR is now frequently used for in‐hospital cardiac arrest (IHCA) with different causes and outcomes.AimsThis paper aims to describe clinical understanding of the role of in‐hospital CPR and perceived outcomes for IHCA.MethodsAn online survey of a secondary care staff involved in resuscitation was conducted, focussing on definitions of CPR, features of do‐not‐attempt‐CPR conversations with patients and clinical case scenarios. Data were analysed using a simple descriptive approach.ResultsOf 652 responses, 500 were complete and used for analysis. Two hundred eleven respondents were senior medical staff covering acute medical disciplines. Ninety‐one percent of respondents agreed or strongly agreed that defibrillation is part of CPR, and 96% believed CPR for IHCA included defibrillation. Responses to clinical scenarios were dissonant, with nearly half of respondents demonstrating a pattern of underestimating survival and subsequently showing a desire to offer CPR in similar scenarios with poor outcomes. This was unaffected by seniority and level of resuscitation training.ConclusionsThe common use of CPR in hospital reflects the broader definition of resuscitation. Recapturing the CPR definition for clinicians and patients as only chest compressions and rescue breaths may allow clinicians to better discuss individualised resuscitation care to aide meaningful shared decision‐making around patient deterioration. This may involve reframing current in‐hospital algorithms and uncoupling CPR from wider resuscitative measures.
Tunnelled central venous catheters for incident haemodialysis patients: a Victorian survey exploring reasons for use

Published: March 2023

AbstractBackgroundTunnelled central venous catheters (T‐CVCs) are used globally as vascular access for patients on haemodialysis (HD) but are associated with increased sepsis, mortality, cost and length of hospitalisation compared with more permanent HD vascular access. The reasons for using T‐CVC are varied and poorly understood. A significant and increasing proportion of incident HD patients in Victoria, Australia, have required T‐CVC over the last decade.AimTo explore reasons for a significant and increasing proportion of incident HD patients in Victoria, Australia, having required T‐CVC over the last decade.MethodsWith rates of starting HD with definitive vascular access consistently below a Victorian quality indicator target of 70%, an online survey was developed to explore reasons why the rate remained lower than desired and to help inform future decisions about this quality indicator. The survey was completed by dialysis access coordinators over an 8‐month period and involved all public nephrology services in Victoria.ResultsOf the 125 surveys completed, 101 incident HD patients had no attempt at permanent vascular access prior to T‐CVC insertion. For almost half of these (48 patients), there was no active medical decision not to create permanent vascular access prior to commencing dialysis. Reasons for insertion of the T‐CVC included deterioration of kidney function faster than anticipated, surgical referral being overlooked, complications related to peritoneal dialysis requiring a change in dialysis modality and changes to initial decisions regarding dialysis modality for kidney failure.ConclusionsThese survey results provide an opportunity for quality improvement initiatives with respect to dialysis access planning and care.

Published: March 2023

AbstractBackgroundNon‐alcoholic fatty liver disease (NAFLD) is a major healthcare burden. Real‐world outcomes in dedicated tertiary care settings in Australia remain unknown.AimTo evaluate the initial outcomes of patients referred to a dedicated multidisciplinary tertiary care NAFLD clinic.MethodsRetrospective review of all adult patients with NAFLD who attended a dedicated tertiary care NAFLD clinic between January 2018 and February 2020 and who had two clinic visits and FibroScans at least 12 months apart. Demographic and health‐related clinical and laboratory data were extracted from electronic medical records. Key outcome measures were serum liver chemistries, liver stiffness measurement (LSM) and weight control at 12 months.ResultsA total of 137 patients with NAFLD were included. Median (interquartile range (IQR)) follow‐up time was 392 days (343–497 days). One hundred and eleven patients (81%) achieved weight control (i.e. weight loss or stability). Markers of liver disease activity were significantly improved, including median (IQR) serum alanine aminotransferase (48 (33–76) vs 41 (26–60) U/L, P = 0.009) and aspartate aminotransferase (35 (26–54) vs 32 (25–53) U/L, P = 0.020). Median (IQR) LSM across the whole cohort was significantly improved (8.4 (5.3–11.8) vs 7.0 (4.9–10.1) kPa, P = 0.001). No significant reduction was observed in mean body weight or the frequency of metabolic risk factors.ConclusionsThis study highlights a new model of care for patients with NAFLD and demonstrates promising initial outcomes in relation to significant reductions in markers of liver disease severity. Although most patients achieved weight control, further refinements are needed to achieve significant weight reduction including more frequent and structured dietetic and/or pharmacotherapeutic interventions.
Institutional investors and cross‐border mergers and acquisitions: The 2000–2018 period
Authors: Yang Jinsuk , Hao Qing , Yaşar Mahmut 
Published: March 2023

AbstractUsing a sample of mergers and acquisitions (M&As) from 26 countries over 2000–2018, we find that domestic institutional investors facilitate both domestic and cross‐border M&As. The facilitation effect is more pronounced for domestic than cross‐border M&As. When the acquirer country has greater financial freedom or better investor protection than the target country, domestic institutional investors facilitate cross‐border M&As more effectively. As Ordinary Least Squares regressions are not the best approach regarding cross‐border M&As, we confirm that the main results are robust to Zero‐inflated Poisson regressions. Foreign institutional investors' influence on cross‐border M&As is stronger when the sample excludes the United States.

Published: March 2023

AbstractBackground StudyEnglish education has been promoted in Taiwan for many years. Recently, content and language integrated learning (CLIL) has received attention as an effective way to integrate English into real‐life contexts. With advances in technology, digital storytelling is suitable for students to develop multiple skills such as narrating real‐life stories and recording them in English.ObjectivesThe present study developed a cooperative learning model in a CLIL context to enhance elementary school students' digital storytelling, English speaking proficiency performance, and financial knowledge.MethodsThe participants were 43 sixth‐grade students from two classes: the experimental group (n = 26) and the control group (n = 17). To investigate whether the digital storytelling results produced by the experimental group under the cooperative learning approach differed from the digital storytelling results produced individually by the control group, an experimental design was implemented throughout the 9‐week course. All the participants took financial knowledge and English‐speaking proficiency pre‐tests and then received financial knowledge classes and digital storytelling instruction to help them effectively design digital storytelling videos, which incorporated the concepts of financial knowledge and English‐speaking skills.Results and ConclusionsThe results showed that the experimental group outperformed the control group in the overall digital storytelling performance, English speaking proficiency, and financial knowledge.
Diving into the diet of provisioned smooth stingrays using stable isotope analysis

Published: March 2023

AbstractRecreational fishing waste, produced from processing catches at shore‐based fish cleaning facilities and discarded into adjacent waters, is foraged by various aquatic species. However, the potential alterations to the diet of consumers of these resources are poorly studied. Smooth stingrays (Bathytoshia brevicaudata) are a large demersal mesopredatory ray species and common scavenger of recreational fishing discards around southern Australia. Due to their attraction to fish cleaning sites, they are also common targets of unregulated ‘stingray feeding’ tourism where they are fed commercially produced baits (e.g., pilchards). This study provides a preliminary assessment of the diet of smooth stingrays provisioned recreational fishing discards and baits at two sites in southern New South Wales, Australia (Discard Site: recreational fishing discards only; Provisioning Site: recreational fishing discards and commercial baits) using stable isotope analysis of carbon (δ13C) and nitrogen (δ15N), and Bayesian stable isotope mixing models. Our results indicate that at both sites invertebrates, considered a main part of the natural diet of smooth stingrays, made a limited contribution to the diets of provisioned stingrays, while a benthic teleost fish that is a common recreational catch was the dominant contributor. As the assessed teleost is potentially a natural prey item for smooth stingrays, it remains unclear whether the contribution came from recreational fishing discards or natural foraging. However, due to smooth stingrays’ typically opportunistic foraging strategy, we expected a greater mixture of resources from low to high trophic level prey than was observed. These results suggest that smooth stingrays have either lower reliance on invertebrates as a result of utilizing provisioned resources or higher reliance on teleost fishes than previously thought. Commercial bait products fed to stingrays at the Provisioning Site were not a major contributor to the diets of smooth stingrays, suggesting this activity has a low impact on their nutrition.
