Research in practice: Diet and microbiome in autoimmune diseases
Authors: Vorobyev Artem , Ludwig Ralf J 
Published: May 2023

SummaryThe incidence of autoimmune diseases in industrialized countries is constantly increasing over past decades. These diseases lead to increased mortality and persistent reduction in quality of life of the patients, posing a severe medical burden. Treatment of autoimmune diseases is often based on unspecific immune suppression, increasing the risk of infectious diseases as well as cancer manifestation. Pathogenesis of autoimmune conditions is complex and includes not only genetic factors, but also environmental influence, which is considered to be the reason for the rise of incidence of autoimmune diseases. Environmental factors comprise numerous elements, such as infections, smoking, medication, diet etc., which can either promote or prevent the onset of autoimmunity. However, the mechanisms of environmental influence are complex and for this moment not clearly understood. Deciphering of these interactions could enhance our comprehension of autoimmunity and provide some novel treatment options for the patients.

AbstractObjectiveWe examined the degrees of change in familial discussions about racial issues (i.e., race, ethnicity, racism, and discrimination) due to the surge of anti‐Asian discrimination during the COVID‐19 pandemic.BackgroundAsian American family racial–ethnic socialization that teaches the values, information, and perspectives about racial–ethnic group membership and race relations carry great implications for youth development. However, little is known about how anti‐Asian sentiments may have contributed to the degrees of change in racial issues.MethodThe participants included 143 second‐generation East Asian American youth (e.g., Chinese, Korean, Japanese, and Taiwanese) ages 11–18 years (M = 14.96, SD = 1.98). Youth were attending middle (38%) or high (62%) schools in the United States.ResultsLatent profile analysis identified four profiles of degrees of change in familial discussions: (a) moderate change in racial discussions about other ethnicities, (b) much change in racial discussions, (c) moderate change in racial discussions about own ethnicities, and (d) little change in racial discussions.ConclusionOur findings provide a snapshot of the ways East Asian American families' racial discussions are changing, which in turn shape youth's experiences in navigating their social contexts.ImplicationsThe findings provide valuable directions for research and interventions to promote important racial discussion among East Asian American families.
Flood risk and corporate future orientation: Evidence from sea level rise risk
Authors: Du Qingjie , Tsang Albert , Wang Yang 
Published: May 2023

AbstractWe find that firms located in US counties with higher sea level rise (SLR) risk engage less in future‐oriented activities, that is, lower corporate social responsibility performance, lower R&D investment and fewer patents granted than firms in counties with lower SLR risk. The effect is strengthened when media attention on climate change is high, when the firm has a high level of prior long‐term investment and when the firm is managed by a young CEO and a CEO who has a greater tendency to avoid uncertainty, whereas it is weakened when the firm's CEO is near retirement and when the firm is geographically diversified. Overall, we document a negative relationship between flood risk exposure and corporate future orientation, suggesting that firms change their future‐oriented attitude in response to concern over climate risks.
Skin microbiome dysbiosis and the role of Staphylococcus aureus in atopic dermatitis in adults and children: A narrative review

Published: May 2023

AbstractA dysfunctional epidermal barrier, which may be associated with mutations in the filaggrin gene in genetically predisposed individuals or harmful effects of environmental agents and allergens, contributes to the development of atopic dermatitis (AD) due to an interplay between the epithelial barrier, immune defence and the cutaneous microbiome. The skin of patients with AD is frequently over‐colonized by biofilm‐growing Staphylococcus aureus, especially during flares, causing dysbiosis of the cutaneous microbiota and a decrease in bacterial diversity that inversely correlates with AD severity. Specific changes in the skin microbiome can be present before clinical AD onset in infancy. Additionally, local skin anatomy, lipid content, pH, water activity and sebum secretion differ between children and adults and generally correlate with the predominant microbiota. Considering the importance of S. aureus in AD, treatments aimed at reducing over‐colonization to rebalance microbial diversity may help manage AD and reduce flares. Anti‐staphylococcal interventions in AD will contribute to a decrease in S. aureus superantigens and proteases that cause damage and inflammation of the skin barrier while concomitantly increasing the proportion of commensal bacteria that secrete antimicrobial molecules that protect healthy skin from invading pathogens. This review summarizes the latest data on targeting skin microbiome dysbiosis and S. aureus over‐colonization to treat AD in adults and children. Indirect AD therapies, including emollients ‘plus’, anti‐inflammatory topicals and monoclonal antibodies, may have an impact on S. aureus and help control bacterial diversity. Direct therapies, including antibacterial treatments (antiseptics/topical or systemic antibiotics), and innovative treatments specifically targeting S. aureus (e.g. anti‐S. aureus endolysin, and autologous bacteriotherapy), may be effective alternatives to mitigate against an increase in microbial resistance and allow a proportionate increase in the commensal microbiota.

Published: May 2023

AbstractUnderstanding the rice grain breakage mechanism is important to increase head rice yield. In this work, a developed mechanical experimental setup is produced, combing a texture analyzer with in situ observation. Grain damage behavior was researched with experimental and finite element modeling. Experimental results showed rice breaking force is closely related to pressing speed and rice length. Three models simulation (ellipsoidal model E model, three section model T model, real shape model R model) results show that the E model is not suitable for quasi‐static compression simulation, the peak force is 35.897% error with testing. T and R modeling results error is within 10%, the broken form is closely related to the dorsal groove and ridge. Initial cracks exit in the area close to the probe and expand inward. Surface cracks happen when element stress exceeds the tensile strength. These findings provide a theoretical basis for broken rice rate reduction during processing.
Two case studies of the treatment of simple onycholysis with disappearing nail bed caused by trauma by combined pharmacological, orthonyxia and taping methods
Authors: Adamczyk Katarzyna , Garncarczyk Agnieszka , Wcisło‐Dziadecka Dominika 
Published: May 2023

AbstractBackgroundSimple onycholysis is a common complaint after trauma and consists in separation of the nail plate from the nail bed. If untreated, prolonged onycholysis may cause a disappearing nail bed (DNB) that leads to the shortening or narrowing of the nail plate.ObjectivesThis study is aimed at discussing possible treatment of chronic simple onycholysis with DNB by combined conservative methods.MethodsSimple onycholysis and DNB treatment consists of Onygen® cream application, nail bed massages, bracing procedures and nail folds taping with kinesio tape.ResultsLong‐lasting simple onycholysis with DNB may be fully eliminated by applying the combined pharmacological, orthonyxia and taping treatment.ConclusionAdvanced simple onycholysis, which leads to the DNB and, in consequence, to the shortening or narrowing of the nail plate, causes cosmetic discomfort for patients. A damaged nail apparatus is also more susceptible to new traumas. Even long‐standing onycholysis with DNB can be successfully treated with easy‐to‐apply conservative methods. The key point of therapy is the use of several methods of treatment with different effects on the nail apparatus. The effects of described therapy are highly satisfactory, the only drawback being its long term, which is caused by slow growth of the nails.

AbstractAimTo make a bibliometric analysis on post‐traumatic growth (PTG) after childbirth.MethodsThe topic advanced search strategy extracted the information from the Web of Science Core Collection. Descriptive statistics were performed using Excel, and bibliometric analysis was performed using VOSviewer.ResultsA total of 362 publications were published in 199 journals were obtained in the WoSCC from 1999 to 2022. Postpartum post‐traumatic growth is in a trend of fluctuating growth, and the United States (N = 156) and Bar‐Ilan University (N = 22) were the top contributing countries and institutions, respectively. Research hotspots mainly focus on theoretical models of PTG, postpartum post‐traumatic stress disorder (PTSD) as a predictor of PTG, facilitators of PTG, and the relationship between mother‐infant attachment and PTG.ConclusionThis bibliometric study provides a comprehensive overview of the current state of research on PTG after childbirth, an area that has received considerable scholarly attention in recent years. However, research on post‐traumatic growth after childbirth is lacking, and further research is needed.

AbstractBackgroundOral health literacy was recognized as important to encouraging oral health and avoiding oral health diseases. It is recognized that socioeconomic conditions are also influential factors in oral health. Therefore, oral health is an important part of individuals' quality of life and general health.ObjectivesThis study was conducted to assess oral health literacy (OHL) and oral health‐related quality of life (OHRQoL) among undergraduate students studying at university.MethodsA prospective cross‐sectional study was carried out from November to February 2023 among the students of King Khalid University. OHL and OHRQoL were assessed using a Rapid estimate of adult literacy in dentistry‐30 (REALD‐30) and oral health impact profile (OHIP‐14). Further, Pearson's correlation tests were used to measure the correlation between REALD‐30 and OHIP‐14.ResultsAmong the 394 completed respondents, the majority were aged >20 years (n = 221; 56.09%), aged <20 years (n = 173; 43.91%), female (n = 324; 82.23%) and male (n = 70; 17.7%). Participants from health‐related colleges were (n = 343; 87.06%), and other colleges were (n = 51; 12.94%) *p < .04. Participants brushing frequency once daily were (n = 165; 41.88%) twice or more per day (n = 229; 58.12%) *p < .018. The overall mean REALD‐30 score of the participants was 11.76 ± 0.17 indicating low OHL. The higher mean score of OHIP‐14 for the following domains physical pain 12.93 ± 0.56, physical disability 12.05 ± 0.72 and psychological disability 12.71 ± 0.76. Oral health impact profile‐14 and REALD showed a positive correlation for health‐related colleges (r = .314; *p < .002) and other colleges (r = .09;p < .072). However, a significant correlation was observed between REALD‐30 and OHIP‐14 scores among health‐related colleges (p < .05). The current study concluded that self‐rated poor oral health is significantly linked with OHIP‐14 scores. Furthermore, systematic health education programs such as regular dental check‐ups for college students must be arranged to assist in changing the student's everyday life and oral health behaviours.

Published: May 2023

AbstractBackgroundInterventional radiology (IR) and interventional endoscopy (IE) have broad potential for minimally invasive therapy in veterinary patients, but the scope of original peer‐reviewed veterinary IR/IE research publications has not been described.ObjectivesCatalogue published applications and indications for noncardiac therapeutic IR/IE in animals and describe type and quality of veterinary IR/IE research over 20 years.MethodsHighly‐cited veterinary journals were searched to identify articles published 2000 to 2019 involving therapeutic IR/IE applications for clinical veterinary patients. Articles were assigned a level of evidence (LOE) according to published standards. Authorship, animal data, study design, and interventions were described. Change in publication rate, study size, and LOE of IR/IE articles over time was analyzed.ResultsOne hundred fifty‐nine of 15 512 (1%) articles were eligible, including 2972 animals. All studies were low LOE and 43% were case reports with ≤5 animals. Number of IR/IE articles per year (P < .001), proportion of journals' articles pertaining to IR/IE (P = .02), and study size (P = .04) all increased over time, but LOE (P = .07) did not. Common target body systems were urinary (40%), digestive (23%) respiratory (20%), and vascular (13%). Common indications were nonvascular luminal obstructions (47%), object retrieval (14%), and congenital anomalies (13%). Most procedures involved indwelling medical devices or embolic agents, whereas tissue resection and other procedures were less common. Procedures utilized fluoroscopy (43%), endoscopy (33%), ultrasound (8%), digital radiography (1%), or fluoroscopy in combination with other modalities (16%).ConclusionsTreatments involving IR/IE have wide applicability in veterinary medicine but large, rigorous, and comparative studies describing these procedures are lacking.

Published: May 2023

AbstractWe examine a highly cited randomized controlled trial on dance‐movement therapy with adolescent girls with mild depression and examine its treatment in 14 evidence reviews and meta‐analyses of dance research. We demonstrate substantial limitations in the trial which seriously undermine the conclusions reached regarding the effectiveness of dance movement therapy in reducing depression. We also show that the dance research reviews vary substantially in their treatment of the study. Some reviews provide a positive assessment of the study and take its findings at face value without critical commentary. Others are critical of the study, identifying significant limitations, but showing marked differences in Cochrane Risk of Bias assessments. Drawing on recent criticisms of systematic reviewing and meta‐analysis, we consider how reviews can be so variable and discuss what is needed to improve the quality of primary studies, systematic reviews, and meta‐analyses in the field of creative arts and health.

Published: May 2023

SummaryBy 2030, it is expected that a billion people will have suffer from obesity. Adipose tissue synthesizes leptin, an adipokine that affects cardiovascular risk. Leptin intensifies the synthesis of vascular endothelial growth factor (VEGF). Our study reviews recent reports on leptin–VEGF crosstalk in obesity and related disorders. PubMed, Web of Science, Scopus, and Google Scholar were searched. One hundred and one articles involving human, animal, and in vitro research were included. In vitro studies show the crucial role of interaction between endothelial cells and adipocytes and hypoxia as a factor that intensifies leptin's effects on VEGF. Leptin–VEGF crosstalk promotes the progression of cancer. The animal research reveal that a high‐fat diet enhances leptin and VEGF crosstalk. Genetic and epigenetic mechanisms and procreator‐offspring programming may be involved in leptin–VEGF crosstalk. Some female‐specific characteristics of leptin–VEGF relation in obesity were observed. The human studies have shown that increased leptin and VEGF synthesis and leptin–VEGF crosstalk are factors linking obesity with elevated cardiovascular risk. The studies of the last 10 years documented a range of significant aspects of leptin–VEGF crosstalk specific for obesity and related disorders, shedding new light on the link between obesity and increased cardiovascular risk.

ObjectiveWhen considering surgical treatment options, many patients who undergo hip arthroscopy value continuing active lifestyles. To address these concerns, the purpose of this study was to determine the effect of preoperative activity level on postoperative patient‐reported outcomes (PROs) in femoroacetabular impingement syndrome (FAIS) patients following hip arthroscopy.MethodsData was retrospectively reviewed for FAIS patients who received hip arthroscopy between 2016 and 2018. Patients were divided into active group and inactive group based on preoperative HOS‐SSS scores. Preoperative active patients were 1:1 propensity‐score matched to inactive patients based on age, sex, BMI, and follow‐up period. PROs (HOS‐ADL, HOS‐ADL, iHOT‐12, mHHS), VAS scores, radiographic measures, performed procedures, complications, and revision surgery were compared and analyzed for both groups by Student's t test.ResultsA total of 71 patients in the active group and 71 patients in the inactive group were found using propensity‐score matching. Active patients had superior preoperative HOS‐ADL, HOS‐SSS, iHOT‐12, mHHS (p < 0.001 for all), and VAS (p = 0.002) scores compared with inactive patients. At the final follow‐up, active patients still had better PROs in HOS‐ADL (p = 0.003), HOS‐SSS (p < 0.001), iHOT‐12 (p = 0.043), and mHHS scores (p = 0.003). There was no difference detected in postoperative VAS score (p = 0.117) between the two groups. However, inactive patients showed significantly higher net improvement in HOS‐ADL (p = 0.009), HOS‐SSS (p = 0.005), and iHOT‐12 (p = 0.023).ConclusionsActive patients have absolute higher preoperative PROs and achieve better postoperative PROs than inactive patients. However, inactive patients can obtain greater net improvements in PROs following hip arthroscopic surgery, with comparable pain alleviation as active patients.

AbstractTo guide the development of entry‐level nursing education, the American Association of Colleges of Nursing (AACN) published the Essentials document in 2021 with a broadened scope of competencies. Community, population, and public health (CPPH) nurse educators use a number of foundational documents to crosswalk for gaps in the AACN principles, highlighting the need of including these contemporary documents within the baccalaureate CPPH nursing curriculum. In this crosswalk, the authors highlight important capabilities and knowledge exclusive to these fundamental documents and tools, as well as the relevance of these competencies and knowledge to CPPH baccalaureate nursing education.
Rats claiming rights? More‐than‐human acts of denizenship in Amsterdam
Authors: de Bondt Herre , de Wilde Mandy , Jaffe Rivke 
Published: May 2023

AbstractThe anthropology of citizenship has sought to understand citizenship beyond formal‐legal definitions, including a focus on how those who are legally without citizenship rights also engage in everyday acts of political claims‐making. While this emphasis on the enactment of citizenship has expanded our understanding of who counts as a political being, it has also been obviously human centered. Might we also understand animals’ acts, their presence and movements, as having the potential to constitute political constituents? This article develops a more‐than‐human perspective on political claims‐making by connecting insights from human‐animal studies to the anthropology of citizenship. We draw on research on rats in Amsterdam to propose an understanding of these animals’ interventions in the urban built environment as more‐than‐human “acts of denizenship.” Focusing on different forms of rat behavior, we analyze rats’ mundane interactions and relations with the city's residents, infrastructure, and other animals as forms of claims‐making. We see the behavior as efforts that are partially recognized by humans and that, as such, can be understood as enacting a relation of denizenship. Such attention to how rats act in and on urban space, we suggest, can help us conceptualize political agency and the formation of political belonging in ways that extend beyond the human.
Using return on investment and resiliency return on investment for preparedness
Authors: Smith James F. 
Published: May 2023

AbstractReturn on investment (ROI) has long been accepted as a primary tool for decision‐making for capital investments and even choices among competing operational budget lines. Applying ROI to investments intended to prevent or mitigate future risks and hazards can be very difficult, as benefits are typically arduous to define and calculate while risk probabilities can be very small. This paper uses examples from recent research concerning law enforcement, airport security, and airport resiliency to illustrate the feasibility of computing ROI and resiliency ROI (RROI) for such investments and to suggest methodology to approach these computations.
