Inclusion of all in the neighbourhood school and student well‐being in Senegal from the perspective of a practicing pedagogue
Authors: Sene Saliou 
Published: May 2023

AbstractThe education system in Senegal has become more democratic and has adopted international policies for inclusive education after decades of normative and selective practices. Advances are being made for recognising individual student needs in school facilities, pedagogy and teaching practices. This article draws on the first‐hand knowledge of the context in Senegal by a current inspector and prior teacher in inclusive practices in Senegal, as well as a purposive review of relevant studies and reports. Current needs for development are identified and discussed, including the structuring of physical settings adapted to special needs learning, interaction with families, as well as communication about disabilities in local communities to reduce social stigma. Building on a review of the current context and needs, the article underscores that it is necessary to move away from superficial symptom identification. Instead, what is needed are changes in teaching and learning practices, as well as in socio‐cultural and physical learning environments, to accommodate special needs students. Finally, necessary rethinking of the professional development of teaching staff in Senegal is called for. The inspiration for this development is closely tied to pedagogical responsibility, ethically based care, and the desire teachers have for succeeding in didactic action.

Published: May 2023

AbstractAimThis study aims to map intimate partner violence evidence among indigenous women and explore the prevalence, social and systemic factors contributing to this occurrence.MethodsThis is a scoping review following the steps recommended by the JBI. We searched the MEDLINE/PubMed®, Web of Science™, Embase, CINAHL and LILACS databases on March 2023. Studies that addressed the intimate partner violence topic among indigenous women and risk factors, without time and language limitations, were included. Detailed information was extracted, standardized by JBI.ResultsTwenty studies of different designs were included, all published in English, between 2004 and 2022. A high intimate partner violence prevalence among indigenous women was identified, associated with a great diversity of risk factors.ConclusionThe great diversity of identified factors associated with its occurrence shows the complexity of this problem and the vulnerability of indigenous women.
Dimensions of controversy: Investigating the structure of public support for universal basic income in the Netherlands
Authors: Gielens Erwin , Roosma Femke , Achterberg Peter 
Published: May 2023

AbstractAs interest in universal basic income (UBI) policy has peaked in recent years, the study of public support for such a policy is rapidly developing. While recent studies recognise the multidimensionality of the UBI proposal, we still know little about to what extent support for UBI is unambiguously supported or rejected. We show that the public holds distinct but related opinions towards three dimensions of UBI: universalism, redistribution and unconditionality. The higher and lower educated are equally ambivalent towards the policy, suggesting a lack of political entrenchment towards UBI in Dutch society. Post hoc comparisons show that key demographics and constituencies support some dimensions while rejecting others, enabling both compromise and division on the issue. Despite these distinct controversies, however, the strong correlation between attitudinal dimensions suggests that survey experiments tend to overstate the degree of multidimensionality by ignoring the strong commonalities in support for policy aspects.
Li0.5Bi2.5Nb2O9: An alkali‐metal bismuth layer structured ferroelectric with high TC and small orthorhombic distortion

Published: May 2023

AbstractBismuth layer structured ferroelectrics (BLSFs) have drawn much attention due to their great potential for high‐temperature applications. It is generally accepted that BLSFs with small orthorhombic distortion should have low TC. In this paper, we report an anomalous example Li0.5Bi2.5Nb2O9 (LBN), which has small orthorhombic distortion but very high TC. LBN shows the highest TC (834°C) among currently reported prototype alkali‐metal BLSFs, which is attributed to its small tolerance factor. However, the refinement result reveals that LBN is orthorhombic with the space group of A21am, and the orthorhombic distortion of LBN a/b is merely 1.0019. The measurement of piezoelectric coefficient (d33 ∼ 6 pC/N) and observation of striped domain structure confirm the ferroelectricity nature of LBN. This work deepens our understanding of BLSFs and may lead to the finding of more novel BLSFs with high performance.

AbstractBackgroundPrevious research has suggested that toddlers are not provided with adequate dietary iron in long‐day care (LDC) services. However, the iron bioavailability provided is unknown. The present study aimed to investigate the amount and bioavailability of iron provided to toddlers aged 2–3 years at LDC services.MethodsA cross‐sectional audit was conducted using a 2‐day weighed food record of 30 LDC services. Iron provision (not child intake) in LDC services across Perth, Australia was compared with the estimated average requirements (EAR) and LDC services provision guidelines (50% of EAR = 2 mg/day based on a 14% bioavailability factor). Bioavailability was estimated per mealtime using haem and non‐haem iron, ascorbic acid, animal protein, calcium, soy, eggs and phytates using two pre‐existing algorithms (by A. P. Rickard and colleagues and H. Hallberg and H. Hulten).ResultsMedian iron supplied (2.52 mg/day, interquartile range [IQR] = 2.43–3.17) was above the 50% of EAR of 2.0 mg/day (p < 0.001). Median bioavailable iron was 0.6 mg/day (IQR = 0.54–0.8) using the method of Rickard et al. and 0.51 mg/day (IQR = 0.43, 0.76 using that of Hallberg and Hulthen). The top three foods contributing to iron provision were bread, breakfast cereals and beef.ConclusionsOur results suggest that LDC services in Perth are meeting the minimum recommendation of provision of 50% of the iron EAR, and also that toddlers are provided with sufficient bioavailable iron. Future strategies should focus on promoting food combinations to maintain the iron bioavailability in meals currently served at LDC services.

Phytoseiids are important biological control agents on different cultivated plants. This work aimed to know the diversity of phytoseiids and compare the abundance and richness of these mites found in grape-producing regions located in northern Portugal. Samplings were conducted in the subregions of Ave, Cávado, Douro, Lima and Minho Rivers between July and September 2017, in 25 vineyards (three in Ave, four in Cávado, eight in Douro, five in Lima and five in Minho Rivers), by collecting 50 leaves/vineyard. A total of 4,372 phytoseiid mites were found, and the highest abundance of phytoseiids per leaf was in Lima, with an average of 6.4, followed by Douro and Minho, with 2.5 and Ave, with 2.0. The highest richness was found in Ave and Douro, with 80% of the species reported. Typhlodromus pyri predominated in nearly all rivers, except when comparing Ave versus Douro, Cávado versus Douro and, Cávado versus Minho; in these cases, Kampimodromus aberrans predominated in Douro and Minho. This also occurred when K. aberrans and Typhlodromus exhilaratus were compared between Douro and Minho. Comparing Ave and Minho, T. exhilaratus predominated in Minho. Knowing about the phytoseiids present in the studied regions of northern Portugal helps develop biological control strategies and balance these agroecosystems.

ObjectiveGiven the paucity of evidence-based research investigating different suicidal ideation profiles and trajectories, this project sought to investigate health and socio-economic factors associated with the presence of suicidal ideation and changes in ideation over time.DesignLongitudinal cohort design, using logistic regression analysis.SettingA public health survey was administered at two timepoints in a community setting across the North West of England. In the 2015/2016 survey, participants were recruited from high (n=20) and low (n=8) deprivation neighbourhoods. In the 2018 survey, only the 20 high-deprivation neighbourhoods were included.Participants4287 people were recruited in 2015/2016 and 3361 were recruited in 2018. The 2018 sample was subdivided into those who responded only in 2018 (n=2494: replication sample) and those who responded at both timepoints (n=867: longitudinal sample).Primary outcome measuresSuicide ideation was the dependent variable which was assessed using item 9 of the Patient Health Questionnaire instrument.ResultsThe prevalence of suicidal ideation was 11% (n=454/4319) at 2015/2016 and 16% (n=546/3361) at 2018.Replication study results highlighted: persistent debilitation from physical ill health and/or medication side effects; demographic factors (ie, middle-aged, single or never married); and personal coping strategies (ie, smoking) as risk factors for suicidal ideation. A static/improved financial position and high levels of empathy were protective factors.Longitudinal study results confirmed three suicidal ideation trajectories: ‘onset’, ‘remission’ and ‘persistence’. Similar findings to the replication study were evidenced for the onset and persistence trajectories. Persistent suicidal ideation was synonymous with higher levels of practical support which may correspond to the higher levels of debilitation and functional disability reported within this group. Remission was characterised by fewer debilitating factors and higher levels of self-agency.ConclusionA greater appreciation of the heterogeneity of suicidal trajectories should lead to the implementation of broad clinical assessments and targeted interventions.

Published: May 2023

ObjectiveTo index levels of hearing loss with respect to area-level indices of deprivation in a Welsh population.DesignA cross-sectional observational study of all adults (aged >18) that attended Abertawe Bro Morgannwg University (ABMU) Health Board audiology services between 2016 and 2018. Service access, first hearing aid fitting appointment rates and hearing loss at time of first hearing aid provision were used to index population hearing loss versus area-level indices of deprivation based on patient postcode.SettingPrimary and secondary care.Participants59 493 patient entries met the inclusion criteria. Patient entries were grouped by age (18–30, 31–40, 41–50, 51–60, 61–70, 71–80, >80 years) and deprivation decile.ResultsThe interaction between age group and deprivation decile predicted access rate to ABMU audiology services (b=−0.24, t(6858) = −2.86, p<0.01) with audiology services accessed more frequently by the most deprived versus the least deprived decile in every age group (p<0.05), except the >80 years. First hearing aid fitting rates were highest among the most deprived in the four youngest age groups (p<0.05). Severity of hearing loss at the time of first hearing aid fitting was worse among the most deprived in the five oldest age groups (p<0.01).ConclusionsHearing health inequalities are prevalent among adults accessing ABMU audiology services. Our findings suggest that deprivation increases the likelihood of developing hearing loss, brings earlier onset of hearing loss and is linked to delays in getting help for hearing problems. However, it is not possible to know the true scale of these disparities without knowing the hearing health of the Welsh adult population including those who do not seek help for hearing problems.

IntroductionPreconception care can significantly improve maternal and infant outcomes, and thus optimise intergenerational health. The aims of this scoping review are to (1) provide an up-to-date summary of preconception health and care strategies, policies, guidelines, frameworks and recommendations across the UK and Ireland and (2) explore preconception health and care services and interventions in Northern Ireland as a case study.Methods and analysisThis scoping review of grey literature will be conducted as per the Scoping Review Methods Manual by the Joanna Briggs Institute and the Arksey-O’Malley framework for scoping studies, and reported in line with Preferred Reporting Items for Systematic Reviews and Meta-Analyses extension for Scoping Reviews. Searches were conducted on Google Advanced Search, OpenAire, NICE, ProQuest and relevant public health websites in May 2022. Only results published, reviewed or updated between January 2011 and the time of the searches (May 2022) were considered for inclusion. In addition, searches on interventions and services provided in Northern Ireland will be supplemented by consultations and audits with key stakeholders to validate findings, identify other potentially eligible resources and ensure breadth of coverage. Data will be extracted into Excel and coded using NVivo, and ≥10% of the data will be double-coded. A narrative approach with content analysis highlighting key themes and concepts will be used to report findings.Throughout the research cycle, members of the wider public will be involved and engaged with to provide feedback.Ethics and disseminationEthical approval is not required as analyses will be conducted on data available in the public domain. Findings will be shared with relevant stakeholders with the aim to inform future research, practice and decision-making, and disseminated through a peer-reviewed publication, conference presentations and infographics. Dissemination plans will be informed by the ‘Healthy Reproductive Years’ patient and public involvement and engagement advisory panel.

ObjectivesPost-intensive care syndrome (PICS) is a recognised sequela after critical care. The development of an index that predicts PICS mental disorders will be of significance for the selection of subsequent interventions. The purpose of this study was to find factors associated with PICS mental disorders. We hypothesised that grip strength during hospitalisation may be associated with the PICS mental status after discharge.DesignA post-hoc analysis of a multicentre prospective observational study.SettingNine hospitals in Japan.ParticipantsPatients who were newly admitted to intensive care unit and stayed for at least 48 hours were included. Exclusion criteria were patients younger than 18 years, those who required assistance with ambulation prior to admission, those with concomitant central nervous system disorders and those with terminal conditions.Primary and secondary outcome measuresPsychiatric symptoms 3 months after discharge were assessed using the Hospital Anxiety and Depression Scale (HADS). The HADS total score (HADS-total) was assigned as the primary outcome.Results98 patients were included into this study. Grip strength at discharge negatively correlated with HADS-total 3 months after discharge (r=−0.37, p<0.001, 95% CI −0.53 to −0.18). A multivariate analysis showed that grip strength was associated with anxiety (p=0.025, 95% CI −0.21 to −0.015). Area under the curve for HADS anxiety score with grip strength at discharge was higher than that with Medical Research Council scores and the Barthel Index (0.71, 0.60, 0.61).ConclusionsGrip strength at discharge correlated with mental disorders 3 months after discharge. Therefore, it may be useful for predicting postdischarge mental disorders.Trial registration numberUMIN000036503.

ObjectivesThe primary objective was to study the reach, effectiveness, adoption, implementation and maintenance of the Nordic Hamstring Exercise (NHE) programme in women’s elite teams in Europe in the 2020–21 season. The secondary objective was to compare hamstring injury rates between teams that used the NHE programme regularly in team training and teams that did not.MethodsEleven teams participating in the Women’s Elite Club Injury Study during the 2020–21 season provided data about injury rates and the implementation of the NHE programme.ResultsOne team (9%) used the full original NHE programme, and four teams used the programme in the team training during parts of the season (team training group, n=5). Five teams did not use the NHE, or used it only sporadically for individual players, and one team used NHE only for players with a previous or current hamstring injury (no team training group, n=6). The team training group had a lower incidence of hamstring injuries during match-play (1.4 vs 4.0, p=0.028) than the non-team training group while no difference between groups was shown for the hamstring injury incidence in training (0.6 vs 0.7, p=0.502).ConclusionA low adoption of the NHE programme was reported during the 2020–21 season. However, teams that used NHE for the whole team or most players had a lower hamstring injury incidence at match-play than teams that did not use the NHE or used it for individual players only.

ObjectivesTo describe the aortic-related risks associated with pregnancy in women with bicuspid aortic valve (BAV) and to evaluate changes in aortic diameter in pregnancy.MethodsProspective observational study of patients with BAV from a single-site registry of pregnant women with structural heart disease between 2013 and 2020. Cardiac, obstetric and neonatal outcomes were studied. An assessment of aortic dimensions was performed during pregnancy by two-dimensional echocardiography. Aortic diameters were measured at the annulus, root, sinotubular junction and maximum ascending aorta diameter, and the largest diameter was used. Measurements of the aorta were made using the end-diastolic leading edge-to-leading edge convention.ResultsForty-three women (32.9 years, IQR 29.6–35.3) with BAV were included: 9 (20.9%) had repaired aortic coarctation; 23 (53.5%) had moderate or severe aortic valve disease; 5 (11.6%) had a bioprosthetic aortic valve; and 2 (4.7%) had a mechanical prosthetic aortic valve. Twenty (47.0%) were nulliparous. The mean aortic diameter in the first trimester was 38.5 (SD 4.9) mm, and that in the third trimester was 38.4 (SD 4.8) mm. Forty (93.0%) women had an aortic diameter of <45 mm; 3 (7.0%) had 45–50 mm; and none had >50 mm. Three women (6.9%) with BAV presented cardiovascular complications during pregnancy or the postpartum period (two prosthetic thrombosis and one heart failure). No aortic complications were reported. There was a small but significant increase in aortic diameter during pregnancy (third trimester vs first trimester, 0.52 (SD 1.08) mm; p=0.03). Obstetric complications appeared in seven (16.3%) of pregnancies, and there were no maternal deaths. Vaginal non-instrumental delivery was performed in 21 (51.2%) out of 41 cases. There were no neonatal deaths, and the mean newborn weight was 3130 g (95% CI 2652 to 3380).ConclusionsPregnancy in BAV women had a low rate of cardiac complications with no aortic complications observed in a small study group. Neither aortic dissection nor need for aortic surgery was reported. A low but significant aortic growth was observed during pregnancy. Although requiring follow-up, the risk of aortic complications in pregnant women with BAV and aortic diameters of <45 mm at baseline is low.

ObjectiveWe sought to evaluate the potential impact of racial difference (Asians vs Caucasians) on the clinical usefulness of pressure recovery (PR) adjustment for preventing discordant aortic stenosis (AS) grading in patients with severe AS.MethodsData from 1450 patients (mean age, 70.2±10.6 years; 290 (20%) Caucasians; aortic valve area (AVA), 0.77±0.26 cm2) were retrospectively analysed. PR-adjusted AVA was calculated using a validated equation. Discordant grading of severe AS was defined as AVA of <1.0 cm2and mean gradient of <40 mm Hg. The frequency of discordant grading was assessed in the overall cohort and the propensity score-matched cohort.ResultsBefore PR adjustment, 1186 patients showed AVA values of <1.0 cm2; after PR adjustment, 170 (14.3%) were reclassified as having moderate AS. PR adjustment decreased the frequency of discordant grading from 31.4% to 14.1% in Caucasians and from 13.8% to 7.9% in Asians. Patients with reclassification to moderate AS after PR adjustment had a significantly lower risk of a composite of aortic valve replacement or all-cause death than did those with severe AS after PR adjustment (HR 0.38; 95% CI 0.31–0.46; p<0.001). In propensity score-matched cohorts (173 pairs), the frequency of discordant grading before PR adjustment was 42.2% and 43.9% in the Caucasian and Asian patients, respectively, which decreased to 21.4% and 20.2%, respectively, after PR adjustment.ConclusionsClinically relevant PR occurred, regardless of race in patients with moderate to severe AS. Routine PR adjustment may be useful for reconciling discordant AS grading.
