ABSTRACTAimsTo understand the current capacity and capability for nursing, midwifery and allied health professional (NMAHP) principal investigator roles in England.DesignQuantitative online survey.MethodsOnline national quantitative survey across England analysed using descriptive statistics.ResultsThe number of NMAHP PIs in an organisation was unrelated to the size of the NMAHP workforce. NMAHP PIs were more common in non‐CTIMP studies. A quarter of organisations had no specific education or support for NMAHP PIs. Most respondents indicated that a national approach to support and training would be helpful.ConclusionsHaving more research‐active NMAHPs provides career progression, improved staff retention and improves the evidence base for practice. Having a broader range of CI/PIs allows for more targeted and specialty‐specific oversight of research studies and streamlines the acceptance process to allow research to be delivered in a more timely manner.Implications for PracticeThis will require more collaboration between NMAHP, medical and industry communities to promote a multidisciplinary approach to healthcare research delivery and to ensure that CI/PI roles are fulfilled by the most appropriate person, regardless of their profession.ImpactTo ascertain NMAHP capacity and capability for PI research roles. Shows where national and organisational effort should be focused to increase this nationally.Reporting MethodCross reporting guidance for survey studies was utilised.Patient ContributionNo patient or patient contribution.

Published: January 2025

ABSTRACTObjectiveSleep bruxism (SB) is associated with alterations in dopamine and serotonin, which are related to increased consumption of added sugar and overuse of screens. The aim of this study was to compare the effect of the interventions ‘Food, Fun and Family’ (FFF) and Counselling and Education (CE) on the frequency of SB in children.MethodsA randomised clinical trial was conducted. Forty‐eight participants aged between 4 and 8 years, attending the paediatric clinics of Universidad CES (Colombia) and Hospital Elina de la Serna (Argentina) participated in the study. Subjects were randomised into the FFF (experimental) and CE (regular intervention) groups. The frequency of SB was reported with the Children's Sleep Habits Questionnaire (CSHQ), the consumption of added sugar from items with the HBSC‐FFQ and the time of use of screens through a diary in baseline (before starting the intervention), at Week 6 and Week 12. Data were analysed with Kruskal–Wallis test followed by Dunn's post hoc, Mann–Whitney test, a linear mixed model and logistic ordinal regression analyses.ResultsThe FFF group had a more significant reduction in consumption of added sugar and screen time compared to the CE group (p < 0.05), especially from Week 6 to baseline. Regression analysis showed that reducing TV watching and consumption of added sugar were associated with a decrease in SB frequency, especially in the FFF group (OR < 1, p < 0.05), and the results were consistent across different study environments.ConclusionThe FFF intervention was more effective in reducing the screen time and sugar consumption and thus decreased the frequency of SB, when compared with the CE intervention.Trial RegistrationClinicalTrials.gov identifier: NCT05310162

ABSTRACTBackgroundTemporomandibular disorder (TMD) is the main chronic pain that affects the face, and it is associated with dietary changes due to pain and dysfunction. However, there is a scarcity of studies on its impact on nutrition and vice versa.ObjectivesTo assess and compare the intake of energy and nutrients among chronic TMD myalgia and asymptomatic women and to evaluate data according to dietary reference intakes (DRI) and the World Health Organization (WHO) values.MethodsIn this analytical cross‐sectional study, 84 female subjects were evaluated according to the diagnostic criteria of TMD (DC/TMD) and allocated into two groups: asymptomatic group (n = 16) and TMD group (n = 68). Participants were assessed using three 24‐h dietary recalls and then analysed for energy, macro and micronutrient content (Nutwin programme). The multiple source method programme was used to estimate participants' usual dietary intake. Usual energy and nutrients intake were also analysed according to the DRI and WHO values. The obtained data were analysed using SPSS 25.0 software. The data were considered significant when the p values were ≤ 0.05.ResultsThe TMD group showed lowered usual intake of cholesterol, sodium, omega‐3, omega‐6, folate, magnesium, selenium and increased usual intake of trans fat. The TMD group showed a higher prevalence of inadequacy of selenium and folate intake.ConclusionDietary intake inadequacies were observed in both groups; however, TMD women showed a significantly lower intake of several nutrients. Long‐term dietary assessment is suggested to accurately investigate the relationship between TMD and nutrient deficiencies.

AbstractLuna is a potential impact crater located in the Banni Plains of the Kutch Basin in western India. The suspected impactites, collected from a 1‐m deep trench near the vicinity of the Luna structure, possess a range of physical (porosity and magnetism) properties. Petrographic studies reveal that these impactites are dominated by wüstite, kirschsteinite, spinel, olivine, and quartz (in decreasing order of abundance), with a few silica grains exhibiting potential planar fractures (PF). These impactites can be grouped into three distinct melt classes based on their wüstite and kirschsteinite content (classified as Ca‐rich, Ca‐poor, and transitional type). Spectroscopic analysis indicates a higher concentration of wüstite in magnetic samples, whereas weakly magnetic to non‐magnetic samples have an elevated presence of kirschsteinite. Major oxide geochemistry comparison between the impactites and the surrounding Banni Plain sediments show that some Luna impactites have a chemical affinity with a terrestrial or transitional setting, whereas the remaining samples portray a non‐terrestrial trend suggesting notable mixing of target rock and projectile material. Optically stimulated luminescence dating of the sediment layer containing the impactites yielded an age of 4045 ± 182 years for the impact, consistent with the earlier proposed age of <6900 years based on radiocarbon dating. The revised age places the Luna impact event much closer to the time frame of the Harappan Civilization's decline, suggesting that it may have had a greater impact on the Harappan Civilization than previously thought.
Change Your Diet: How CO2, Plant Phenology and Genotype Alter Grapevine Quality and Affect Performance and Larval Transcriptome of an Insect Herbivore

Published: January 2025

ABSTRACTHerbivorous insects need to cope with changing host plant biochemistry caused by abiotic and biotic impacts, to meet their dietary requirements. Larvae of the multivoltine European grapevine moth Lobesia botrana, one of the main insect pests in viticulture, feed on both flowers and berries. The nutritional value and defence compounds of these organs are changing with plant phenology and are affected by climate change which may accordingly alter plant–insect interactions. Here, we assessed the impacts of future elevated atmospheric CO2 concentrations on the host plant quality of different grapevine organs and the larval performance and the transcriptome of L. botrana. Using the Geisenheim VineyardFACE facility, where ‘Riesling’ and ‘Cabernet Sauvignon’ were cultivated in the field under ambient or elevated (ca. + 20%) atmospheric CO2 concentrations, we found that nutrient (amino acids and sugars) and defence compound (phenolic compounds) concentrations of inflorescences and ripening berries differed strongly due to plant phenology and less due to cultivar and CO2 concentration. Assessing global gene expression after feeding on the respective organs, we found that larval transcriptomic plasticity largely mirrored the plant biochemical plasticity. Larval relative growth rate differed between treatments in a plant phenology‐dependent manner. Grape berries contained higher amino acid concentrations and altered phenolics profiles after larval feeding. In the near future, the grapevine–L. botrana interaction will probably change less because of elevated CO2 concentrations than it does currently during one season. Changes associated with plant phenology, however, may be relevant for contemporary pest management.

Published: January 2025

ABSTRACTInvading species along with increased anthropogenization may lead to hybridization events between wild species and closely related domesticates. As a consequence, wild species may carry introgressed alleles from domestic species, which is generally assumed to yield adverse effects in wild populations. The opposite evolutionary consequence, adaptive introgression, where introgressed genes are positively selected in the wild species, is possible but has rarely been documented. Grey wolves (Canis lupus) are widely distributed across the Holarctic and frequently coexist with their close relative, the domestic dog (C. familiaris). Despite ample opportunity, hybridization rarely occurs in most populations. Here we studied the geographically isolated grey wolves of the Iberian Peninsula, who have coexisted with a large population of loosely controlled dogs for thousands of years in a human‐modified landscape. We assessed the extent and impact of dog introgression on the current Iberian grey wolf population by analysing 150 whole genomes of Iberian and other Eurasian grey wolves as well as dogs originating from across Europe and western Siberia. We identified almost no recent introgression and a small (< 5%) overall ancient dog ancestry. Using a combination of single scan statistics and ancestry enrichment estimates, we identified positive selection on six genes (DAPP1, NSMCE4A, MPPED2, PCDH9, MBTPS1, and CDH13) for which wild Iberian wolves carry alleles introgressed from dogs. The genes with introgressed and positively selected alleles include functions in immune response and brain functions, which may explain some of the unique behavioural phenotypes in Iberian wolves such as their reduced dispersal compared to other wolf populations.

Summary
Increasing atmospheric CO2 levels have a variety of effects that can influence plant responses to microbial pathogens. However, these responses are varied, and it is challenging to predict how elevated CO2 (eCO2) will affect a particular plant–pathogen interaction. We investigated how eCO2 may influence disease development and responses to diverse pathogens in the major oilseed crop, soybean.
Soybean plants grown in ambient CO2 (aCO2, 419 parts per million (ppm)) or in eCO2 (550 ppm) were challenged with bacterial, viral, fungal, and oomycete pathogens. Disease severity, pathogen growth, gene expression, and molecular plant defense responses were quantified.
In eCO2, plants were less susceptible to Pseudomonas syringae pv. glycinea (Psg) but more susceptible to bean pod mottle virus, soybean mosaic virus, and Fusarium virguliforme. Susceptibility to Pythium sylvaticum was unchanged, although a greater loss in biomass occurred in eCO2. Reduced susceptibility to Psg was associated with enhanced defense responses. Increased susceptibility to the viruses was associated with reduced expression of antiviral defenses.
This work provides a foundation for understanding how future eCO2 levels may impact molecular responses to pathogen challenges in soybean and demonstrates that microbes infecting both shoots and roots are of potential concern in future climatic conditions.

Published: January 2025

ABSTRACTWe present the case of a 64‐year‐old man who, during the implantation of an active‐fixation leadless pacemaker (LP, Aveir VR, Abbott, USA), underwent several external defibrillation shocks up to 240 Joules, due to symptomatic sustained supraventricular tachycardia at 160 bpm. The shocks, delivered both before and after the screwing of the device in the low interventricular septum, did not cause any technical damage to the device, and no complications were observed. The device was then deployed successfully. To our knowledge, this is the first documented case of external cardioversion (ECV) in a patient with an active‐fixation LP. The results suggest that ECV in these patients appears to be safe and feasible.

ABSTRACTThe HKT‐type proteins have been extensively studied and have been shown to play important roles in long‐distance Na+ transport, maintaining ion homoeostasis and improving salt tolerance in plants. However, there have been no reports on the types, characteristics and functions of HKT‐type proteins in Limonium bicolor, a recretohalophyte species with the typical salt gland structure. In this study, five LbHKT genes were identified in L. bicolor, all belonging to subfamily 1 (HKT1). There are many cis‐acting elements related to abiotic/biotic stress response on the promoters of the LbHKT genes. LbHKT1;1 was investigated in detail. Subcellular localization results showed that LbHKT1;1 is targeted to the plasma membrane. Functional analysis in yeast showed that LbHKT1;1 has a higher tolerance than AtHKT1;1 under high Na+ conditions. Silencing and overexpression of the LbHKT1;1 gene in L. bicolor showed that LbHKT1;1 negatively regulates salt secretion by the salt glands. Further experiments showed that LbbZIP52 can specifically bind to the ABRE element in the LbHKT1;1 promoter and regulate the expression of the LbHKT1;1 gene and is involved in the negative regulation of the salt secretion capacity of L. bicolor. This study demonstrates for the first time that the HKT‐type protein is involved in salt secretion by salt glands and provides a new perspective on the function of HKT‐type proteins under salt stress conditions.

SUMMARYMeristotheca papulosa is an economically important red alga with extensive applications in the food, phycocolloid, and pharmaceutical industries. In Korea, this species has only been observed along the coast of Jeju Island. M. papulosa has been intensively harvested for export throughout history as it is more expensive than other seaweeds, which has substantially decreased its natural resources. To restore the destroyed natural algal populations and meet commercial demands that have continuously increased, we evaluated the reproductive capacity of M. papulosa. Also, the effects of temperature on carpospore release and growth were examined at 16, 18, 20, 22, 24, and 26°C. The reproductive capacity of thalli with cystocarps was higher in August (5.2 × 107 spores m−2). The number of carpospores released from M. papulosa was maximum at 24°C (782 ± 93 spores cystocarp−1). Temperature also significantly affected sporeling growth and development. Carpospores grew from 17.16 to 159.18 μm in diameter with maximal growth rate of 10.57% day−1 at 24°C after 21 days. Also, sporelings produced erect thalli at 22–24°C after 28 days. These results provide valuable information for not only the protection and recovery of natural resources but also the establishment of a spore‐based cultivation method for this commercially important alga.
Choosing the right crowdsourcing strategy: Implications for governments' crowdsourcing initiatives
Authors: Colovic Ana , Bagherzadeh Mehdi , Liévin Jean‐Louis 
Published: January 2025

AbstractBuilding on recent advances in crowdsourcing research, we argue that, when using crowdsourcing, governments should accurately select the crowd they wish to engage with, depending on the problem to be solved. While targeting a large crowd may be common, it is not always the most appropriate: it can waste significant resources without necessarily producing satisfactory results. We contend that the nature of the problem should determine the crowdsourcing strategy. We propose a typology of problems based on their scope and technicity: specific nontechnical, specific technical, broad nontechnical, and broad technical. We introduce the main crowdsourcing strategies—fishing, hunting, and collective production—explain the rationale for each, and offer a practitioner's perspective on their costs and benefits. We then discuss how each strategy is suited for solving diverse problems and propose guidelines for governments on using crowdsourcing more effectively.
Ammonia emissions and nitrogen use efficiency of untreated and plasma treated liquid organic materials
Authors: Rollett A. J. , Williams J. R. , Priest H. 
Published: January 2025

AbstractManure management is a significant source of ammonia emissions in the EU. Ammonia emissions can damage sensitive habitats, pose a risk to human health and reduce crop available nitrogen supply from organic materials and manufactured fertilizers. Total ammoniacal‐nitrogen in liquid organic materials consists of both un‐ionized ammonia gas and ammonium in solution which are at an equilibrium that is pH and temperature dependant. At pH <6 the proportion of ammonia gas is very low, and acidification is recognized as a technique for reducing ammonia emissions from liquid organic materials. Air plasma treatment, which fixes nitrogen from air using a strong electric current, lowers the pH of liquid organic materials to around 5.5, from pH 7–8 for untreated materials. A series of seven replicated field experiments were used to compare the effects of plasma treated and untreated liquid organic materials on ammonia emissions, crop yield and nitrogen use efficiency following application to winter wheat. Results from the field experiments showed that ammonia emissions following the application of plasma treated liquid organic materials were 28%–83% lower than from the untreated materials and similar to emissions from mineral ammonium nitrate in the same experiments. The lower ammonia emissions increased the fertilizer value of the plasma treated liquid organic materials (compared with the untreated materials) by 45%. The increased crop available nitrogen supply from the plasma treated materials reduced the requirement for purchased nitrogen fertilizer applications to meet optimum crop demand.
Task design to support preservice teacher development of statistical graphic critical thinking skills

Published: January 2025

AbstractCritical thinking is a skill that people must develop to navigate skillfully the information they receive through media channels. The cultivation of this skill must begin in the early stages of education and continue uninterrupted through the completion of academic training. For this reason, the search for tools to promote critical thinking in the classroom is crucial. To address this situation, it is essential that the initial training of educators provides them with valuable resources, offering them a tool for supporting critical thinking in their own future classrooms. This paper presents an activity to cultivate statistical graphic critical thinking (SGCT task) of preservice teachers, offering them a tool for their future teaching role. This approach is implemented dynamically, incorporating real‐world information and simulating individuals' everyday situations. The proposal, implemented with a cohort of 60 preservice teachers, has proven beneficial in improving the critical thinking skills of participating preservice teachers.
Strategic Interaction in Kantian Utopia: The Prisoner's Dilemma
Authors: Roussel Edward , Demey Lorenz 
Published: January 2025

ABSTRACTWhat does the Kantian realm of ends look like? To partially answer that question, game theory will be used to analyse how Kantians would handle situations of strategic interaction. Starting from a thorough understanding of Kant's categorical imperative, three purportedly Kantian game theoretical models will be analysed and argued to be inconsistent with the categorical imperative. As these existing models are unfit for analysing strategic interaction in the realm of ends, a genuinely Kantian model will be constructed by adding the concepts of ‘moral field’, ‘moral range’ and ‘Kantian utility function’ to the standard game‐theoretical model. Throughout the paper, the prisoner's dilemma will be used both as a case study and as a ground for argumentation.
