AbstractIssue addressedArts on Prescription at Home (AoP@Home) involves a professional artist visiting a person with dementia and their informal carer(s) in their own home to engage them in participatory art making. While there is evidence for the use of these programs, more work is needed to facilitate effective implementation. This study explored contextual barriers and enablers to implementation of AoP@Home within a real‐world community aged care service.MethodsTwo remote focus groups were conducted at a community aged care provider in Sydney, Australia. Key stakeholders (n = 14) were recruited, representing: people with dementia, informal (family) carers, AoP artists, service referrers and community service managers. Focus group transcripts were analysed using qualitative content analysis and mapped onto the Consolidated Framework for Implementation Research (CFIR). Outcomes were reviewed against the Expert Recommendations for Implementing Change (ERIC) strategy compilation to inform development of a tailored implementation strategy.ResultsFour overarching themes described the range of barriers and enablers to AoP@Home implementation: (1) “I don't know enough about it” (awareness and engagement within the sector), (2) artists delivering programs, (3) awareness and engagement of people impacted by dementia, (4) practicalities of implementation. All five domains of the CFIR were represented across the four themes. The ERIC compilation provided a list of practical strategies for implementation of AoP@Home.ConclusionsThe implementation of psychosocial interventions for people living with dementia within a community aged care service is complex and multifactorial.So what?:Organisations planning implementation should consider conducting their own pre‐implementation analysis to identify context‐specific strategies.
Reversible cerebral vasoconstriction syndrome in the postpartum period: A case report and review of the literature
Authors: Lee David E. , Krishnan Anant , Collins Riley 
Published: March 2023

AbstractReversible cerebral vasoconstriction syndrome (RCVS) is a rare phenomenon that can present in the postpartum period. We show the experience of a 35‐year‐old patient who presented with headache after an uncomplicated pregnancy and vaginal delivery. She was initially diagnosed with pre‐eclampsia, and subsequently with RCVS following discovery of multifocal vascular narrowing on magnetic resonance arteriography (MRA). Verapamil was initiated, and at 1 month there was improvement intracranially, but cervical vertebral arterial narrowing, likely dissection, was discovered. Verapamil was continued and aspirin was initiated. Follow‐up imaging 5 months postpartum demonstrated near‐complete resolution of previously noted abnormalities, which remained stable at reimaging at 10 months postpartum. In conclusion, the symptoms of RCVS can mimic or coexist with pre‐eclampsia. Early intracranial imaging such as MRA can permit timely diagnosis and facilitate appropriate management and follow‐up.
“We talk teeth”: Exploring faculty EDIA (equity, diversity, inclusivity, and access) capacity in dental education

AbstractPurposeThere are increasing concerns regarding inequitable educational access and experiences for underrepresented populations in health education, prompting dental faculties to recognize EDIA (equity, diversity, inclusivity, and access) capacity as a strategic priority. Faculty members contribute to the establishment and reinforcement of institutionally engrained norms within learning settings with significant influence on the experience of students. Currently, there is limited literature on faculty EDIA capacity within dental education and minimal evidence to inform barriers to development. This study sought to explore how dental faculty members perceive their personal and institutional EDIA capacity and to identify current strengths and weaknesses of EDIA development within the institution of study and dental education.MethodsUsing a hermeneutic study design, semi‐structured interviews were conducted on a convenience sampling of dental faculty members (n = 10) and a thematic, interpretative analysis was applied.ResultsFindings revealed six dominant themes impacting EDIA capacity. Knowledge of EDIA language, interfaculty communication, and institutional messaging are identified as weaknesses, whereas informal, community building events for EDIA development are identified as novel strengths meriting prioritization. Motivation to engage in EDIA by faculty members overall is illuminated in relation to emotionally provocative experiences.ConclusionCurrent institutional communication of EDIA is unconsciously restricting capacity building based on hierarchical and prescribed parameters. Developing capacity in dental education requires a redirection of resources to initiatives valuing social bonding over prescribed box‐checking. This study reveals a new narrative of EDIA capacity within dental education and sustainable pathways for development with high transferability to other health programs.

AbstractBackgroundCOVID‐19 has spurred a global crisis that has disrupted everyday lives and impacted the traditional methods, experiences, and abilities of higher education institutions' students, faculty, and staff, especially at Historically Black Colleges and Universities (HBCUs).Purpose/HypothesisGiven the pressing need demonstrated by the National Academies to advance the utilization of science, technology, engineering, and mathematics (STEM) education at HBCUs, this study aimed to explore the abrupt transition to remote teaching and learning at HBCUs guided by the following research question: How has COVID‐19 impacted the success and persistence of engineering students, faculty, and staff at HBCUs?Design/MethodsThree surveys were developed, tested, piloted, and sent to HBCU stakeholders using a snowball sampling approach via email and social media outreach.ResultsOf the 171 student respondents (126 engineering majors), 79% agreed that not being able to access faculty in person affected their academic performance. Additionally, across all HBCU stakeholders' surveys, students had a statistically significant higher response when asked if the transition to virtual learning increased their overall levels of stress and anxiety.ConclusionsDuring a global pandemic, HBCUs continue to provide a culture of support and inclusion for students, faculty, and staff in engineering. Increased stress levels experienced by students indicate that a safe and adequate transition back to campus is essential for their social and academic persistence. Due to the well‐documented inequities HBCUs faced before the pandemic, the impact of this unprecedented on their continued contributions toward broadening participation in engineering for students should be further explored.

AbstractBackgroundA defining characteristic of expertise is the use of intuition to navigate tasks. The construct of intuition and its importance is well‐studied in other disciplines, but little is known about how it translates to engineering. Existing literature on intuition does not clearly define the construct and its relationship to problem solving, which creates a substantial gap in our understanding of intuition and its applicability to engineering.PurposeThis study's purpose is to better understand the relationship between expertise, decision‐making, and intuition from the perspective of engineering practitioners. We additionally seek to define engineering intuition from this same perspective.Design/MethodsSeventeen semi‐structured interviews were conducted with engineering practitioners with at least 6 years of experience. Sensitizing concepts tied to models of expertise development and dual process cognition were used to guide the study's design and data analysis. Iterative qualitative analysis culminating in code mapping supported the development of a definition and theory of engineering intuition.ResultsThis study's result is an emergent definition of engineering intuition and a complementary framework called Leveraging Intuition Toward Engineering Solutions (LITES). LITES uniquely situates intuition as part of the problem‐solving process among experienced engineering practitioners and describes how practitioners use their intuition.ConclusionsThis work advances knowledge of the relationship between intuition and expertise in engineering education by providing a definition of engineering intuition and a framework describing intuition's role in engineering problem solving. This contribution furthers efforts to equip current and future engineers with the necessary skills to navigate existing and upcoming societal challenges.

AbstractAphis fabae is a widespread pest that has more than 200 hosts in the world, belongs to hemiptera, for stinging suction mouthparts, harm buds, young leaves, and flower buds. Pyrimidine derivatives have the advantages of insecticidal, bactericidal, herbicidal, regulating plant growth and other biological activities, and have a unique mechanism of action. Pyrimidinamine derivatives, one of pyrimidine derivatives, were reported as early as 1955, and all the world's major pesticide companies (Syngenta, Dow Yinon, Bayer, DuPont, and BASF) have carried out research studies, which had lasted for nearly 60 years. For example, commercial pyrimidine products such as flupyrimethanil (fungicide) and pyrimethanil (insecticidal and acaricidal agents) show excellent biological activity. So pyrimidinamine derivatives are considered promising agricultural compounds. In this study, a series of pyrimidinamine derivatives were designed and synthesized using pyrimidifen as a template according to bioisosterism. 5‐chloro‐N‐(1‐((3‐chloro‐5‐(trifluoromethyl)pyridin‐2‐yl)oxy)‐2‐methylpropan‐2‐yl)‐ 6‐ethylpyrimidin‐4‐amine, T23, had the best control effect on Aphis fabae with LC50 values of 1.46 mg/L, versus commercial insecticides spirotetramat and imidacloprid (2.45 and 0.53 mg/L). The synthesis, characterization, and activity data of the compounds are presented in the text, and the structure–activity relationships are discussed.

AbstractAndean Toads of the genus Osornophryne are suspected to have direct development on the basis of clutch and egg features. In this work, we describe the morphology of Osornophryne occidentalis embryos from a nest collected in the field. Several traits are similar to those reported in brachycephaloid Eleutherodactylus coqui and other direct‐developing lineages. These include the pattern of formation of the body wall and the absence of oral and buccopharyngeal structures. Other features indicate the retention of ancestral larval characters. The development of forelimbs occurs in part within the operculum as in species with biphasic ontogeny; this has been reported in other direct‐developing species, and is similar to what is described in African viviparous bufonids. This salient feature, along with the long, low‐finned tail and the long and folded intestine early differentiated, gives these embryos a rather tadpole‐like appearance. Our data confirm that development in O. occidentalis occurs within terrestrial eggs until advanced stages, and this would satisfy current definitions of direct development. At the same time, morphological differences regarding other species with comparable breeding reinforce interpretations about the wide anatomical and ontogenetic variations associated with endotrophic nutrition.

AbstractThe objective of this study was to assess whether mesenchymal stem cells (MSCs) therapy could offer survival advantages for patients with novel coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID‐19). An electronic search of PubMed, Embase, Cochrane Library, Web of Science, WanFang, and CNKI was performed from December 1, 2019 to December 25, 2022. The primary outcome was all‐cause mortality. Trial sequential analysis (TSA) was conducted in this meta analysis. Besides, subgroup analysis and meta‐regression was performed using a random‐effects model to find the potential sources of heterogeneity. Seventeen randomized controlled trials (RCTs) involving a total of 1073 patients with COVID‐19 were included in this study. Compared with the control group, patients in the MSCs groups were associated with significantly reduced all‐cause mortality (MSCs 18.4% vs. control 25.5%; risk ratio [RR] 0.73; 95% confidence interval [CI] 0.59–0.90; p = 0.004; I² = 0%). For all secondary outcomes, there wasn't significant improvement in the experimental group versus the control group regarding symptom remission rate (53.2%, 201/378 vs. 46.5%, 164/353; RR 1.15; 95% CI 1.00–1.32; p = 0.05; I² = 43%), but the pooled analysis revealed significant differences between the groups in length of hospital stay (MD: −3.82, 95% CI: −5.87 to −1.77; p = 0.0003, I2 = 0%), requirement of invasive mechanical ventilation (RR 0.52; 95% CI 0.33–0.82; p = 0.005; I2 = 0%) and post‐CRP level (MD: −31.61; 95% CI −46.74 to −16.49; p < 0.0001). Moreover, regarding the incidence of adverse events (AEs) (RR 0.73; 95% CI 0.35–1.52; p = 0.39; I² = 44%) and serious adverse events (sAEs) (RR 0.87; 95% CI 0.40–1.92; p = 0.73; I² = 39%), no significant differences were observed between MSCs and control groups. The TSA analysis showed that the result of all‐cause mortality might be false‐positive result. Based on the pooled results in this study, compared with standard treatment, MSCs therapy may reduce all‐cause mortality of patients with COVID‐19 with no increase risk of AEs and sAEs, but may not improve symptom remission rate. Further more high‐quality and large‐sample RCTs should be performed to confirm these findings.
Nurturing Group Creativity in Mathematical Modeling through Role Playing
Authors: Hye‐Yun Jung , Kyeong‐Hwa Lee 
Published: March 2023

ABSTRACTPedagogical strategies for nurturing group creativity in school mathematics have remained largely unexplored despite their significance. In this study, we explored the use of role playing in mathematical modeling activities for nurturing group creativity in a 9th‐grade mathematics class in Korea. We described the theoretical bases and types of roles that nurture group creativity while examining the effects of role playing and the factors that seem to promote it. The data of this study included lesson observations, samples of student work, and interviews with 20 participating students and their teachers. The interactions of the five groups of students were compared and analyzed. The results suggest that role playing contributes to nurturing group creativity by inducing interactions and improving creative synergies. The factors that seem to promote role playing are students' understanding of role playing, a comfortable environment, the thought evaluator's role‐playing effectiveness, and the need to make a mathematical decision. Based on these findings, we recommend that creativity researchers build on these findings to further explore how group creativity can be enhanced in mathematical modeling through role playing.
Assessing the impact of an electronic therapeutic drug monitoring record in the management of vancomycin through pharmacist intervention: a single‐centre study
Authors: Ong Kimberly J. , Oates Gillian , Banakh Iouri 
Published: March 2023

AbstractBackgroundA gap in vancomycin therapeutic drug monitoring (TDM) electronic documentation, management, and related clinical pharmacist activities was identified by our clinical pharmacy team. In response, an electronic TDM (eTDM) template was planned, designed, and implemented by the pharmacy department team in collaboration with the electronic medical records team (EMR) and documentation committee.AimTo assess the impact of an electronic therapeutic drug monitoring (eTDM) template to measure the impact of adherence to vancomycin guidelines. Guideline adherence indicators include the number of vancomycin levels within the therapeutic range and the number of appropriate concentrations taken.MethodAn interventional, single‐centre study of vancomycin therapy in adult patients was performed from 2019–2021. Data were extracted from the electronic medical records and TDM paper‐based forms completed by clinical pharmacists. The number of concentrations within the therapeutic range and the number of appropriately taken levels were analysed by the chi‐square test. This study received an exemption from the Peninsula Health Human Research Ethics Commitee (QA/60523/PH‐2019/197291).ResultsThere was a total of 198 concentrations collected in the ‘before’ period and 125 concentrations collected in the ‘after’ period. The number of concentrations in therapeutic range increased from 34.8% to 43.2% (p = 0.132), not statistically significant. The number of concentrations taken appropriately increased from 33.8% to 55.2% (p < 0.001). The proportion of patients with pharmacist involvement increased from 43.0% to 57.0% (p = 0.868).ConclusionThe study shows that implementation of an electronic vancomycin monitoring template improved the proportion of appropriate levels taken and is the preferred method of documentation by clinical pharmacists. Future projects may benefit from analysing the cost associated with unnecessary vancomycin serum levels ordered or inclusion of pharmacists in the TDM of other narrow therapeutic medications.

Published: March 2023

AbstractA device that can couple propagating light into surface plasmon polaritons (SPPs) focused into a small region is highly desired for on‐chip photonics applications (e.g., energy‐harvesting, sensing, etc.). However, current technologies suffer from large device footprint, low working efficiency, and insufficient light‐manipulation freedom. Here, a generic approach for designing plasmonic lenses to generate predesigned vector SPP vortices with high efficiencies is established. Constructed with a set of meta‐atoms exhibiting tailored reflection phases and polarization‐conversion capabilities, the devices can convert normally incident circularly polarized light into predesigned vector SPP vortices with high efficiencies, due to both phase and polarization matching. As the illustrations, this study experimentally demonstrates directional SPP conversion (coupling efficiency: 35%; utilization efficiency: 98%) and SPP focusing effect at the wavelength of 1064 nm, with two meta‐couplers in stripe and arc shapes, respectively. Finally, a ring‐shaped meta‐coupler is designed/fabricated, and the generation of a vector SPP vortex with significantly enhanced efficiency as compared to previous schemes is experimentally demonstrated. The results pave the way for realizing on‐chip plasmonic devices to efficiently utilize SPPs with minimal footprints.

Published: March 2023

AbstractRadiofrequency (RF) injection locking and spectral broadening of a terahertz (THz) quantum‐cascade vertical‐external‐cavity surface‐emitting laser (QC‐VECSEL) is demonstrated. An intracryostat VECSEL focusing cavity design is used to enable continuous‐wave lasing with a cavity length over 30 mm, which corresponds to a round‐trip frequency near 5 GHz. Strong RF current modulation is injected to the QC‐metasurface electrical bias to pull and lock the round‐trip frequency. The injection locking range at various RF injection powers is recorded and compared with the injection locking theory. Moreover, the lasing spectrum broadens from 14 GHz in free‐running mode to a maximum spectral width around 110 GHz with 20 dBm of injected RF power. This experimental setup is suitable for further exploration of active mode‐locking and picosecond pulse generation in THz QC‐VECSELs.

AbstractEpoxy to copper adhesion supports the reliability of numerous structures in electronic packaging. Compared to substrate pre‐treatment, processing and cost considerations are in favor of adhesion promoters loaded in epoxy formulations. In this work, first row transition metalβ‐diketonates present such a compelling case when added in epoxy/anhydride resins: over 30% (before moisture aging) and 50% (after moisture aging) enhancement in lap shear strength are found using Co(II) and Ni(II) hexafluoroacetylacetonate. From extensive X‐ray photoelectron spectroscopy (XPS) analyses on the adhesively failed sample surfaces, increased population of oxygen‐containing functional groups, especially esters, is linked to the adhesion improvement. Assisted by XPS depth profile on the fractured epoxy side and in situ Fourier‐transform infrared spectroscopy (FTIR), the previously discovered latent cure characteristics endowed by the metal chelates interacting with phosphine catalysts are regarded pivotal for pacing the anhydride consumption and allowing interfacial esterification reactions to occur. Further examinations on the XPS binding energy shifts and dielectric properties of the doped epoxy also reveal metal–polymer coordination that contribute to the adhesion and moisture resistance properties. These findings should stimulate future research of functional additives targeting at cure kinetics control and polar group coordination ideas for more robust epoxy–Cu joints.
