ObjectivesThe study aimed at examining the combined association of socioeconomic status (SES) and diet diversity (DD) with health-related quality of life (HRQoL) and exploring whether DD played a mediating role in the relationship between varied SES and HRQoL among Chinese older persons.MethodA multi-stage random sampling method was conducted in Shanxi Province of China, with 3,250 older adults participating in this cross-sectional survey. SES was divided into groups by quartiles and DD by means, and these variable groups were combined in pairs to generate a total of eight combinations. The PROCESS macro developed by Hayes was employed for the simple mediation analysis.ResultsCompared with the reference group (those with both high SES and high DD), older adults who were classified to have lower SES or DD had elevated odds of having worse HRQoL: low SES/ low DD (OR = 1.65, 95% CI 1.41–2.92); low SES/ high DD (OR = 1.45, 95% CI 1.17–1.80); middle low SES/ low DD (OR = 1.43, 95% CI 1.24–1.65); middle low SES/ high DD (OR = 1.23, 95% CI 1.03–1.47); upper high SES/ low DD (OR = 1.41, 95% CI 1.21–1.65); and high SES/ low DD (OR = 1.30, 95%CI 1.10–1.53). The mediation analysis revealed that DD mediated the relationship between SES and HRQoL (B=0.011, 95% CI 0.008–0.013), with its indirect effects accounting for 39.29% of the total effects.ConclusionsThese findings highlighted the role of DD as a mediator of the relationship between SES and HRQoL. As DD could be protective, modifiable, and easy for older adults to understand and implement, village clinics and community health stations should work collaboratively to design proper DD intervention measures for better HRQoL.

IntroductionDuring COVID-19, some front-line personnel experienced varying degrees of eye discomfort due to the use of goggles repeatedly disinfected with chlorine-containing disinfectant.MethodsThe eye damage information of 276 front-line personnel who used goggles in a hospital from October 1, 2021, to December 1, 2021, was collected by filling out a questionnaire. To study the effect of chlorinated disinfectants on goggles, we immersed the goggles in the same volume of water and chlorinated disinfectant buckets. We tested the light transmittance, color and texture, and airtightness of the goggles at different times (1, 3, 12, 24, 36, 48, 60, 72, 96, 120, 144, 168, 192, 216, 240, and 268 h). In addition, we detected where chlorinated disinfectant remained in the goggles by using disinfectant concentration test paper.Results60 (21.82%) people experienced dry eyes, stinging pain, photophobia and tearing, conjunctival congestion, eyelid redness, and swelling. After treatment or rest, the patient's ocular symptoms were significantly relieved within 3 days. With the extension of disinfection time, the light transmission of the lenses gradually decreased, and the light transmission reduced when immersion occurred at 216 h. After 72 h of disinfection, the color of the goggle frame began to change to light yellow, the texture gradually became hard and brittle, and the color became significantly darker at 268 h of disinfection. The airtightness of the goggles began to decrease after 168 h of disinfection, the airtightness decreased substantially at 268 h, and the shape changed significantly. In addition, the concentration test paper results show that the disinfection solution mainly resides in the goggle frame seam and goggles' elastic bands' bundle.ConclusionsRepeated chlorine disinfectant disinfection will reduce the effectiveness of goggles protection and damage front-line personnel's eye health.
Assessing perceptions of resilience: The understanding from network analysis

Published: January 2023

IntroductionPrevious studies have yet to reach a consensus on the construct of resilience perception, and how to enhance the effect of resilience intervention remains an urgent issue. In this consideration, this study examines the fundamental construct of resilience. It provides insight into the critical prevention goal for resilience intervention by utilizing the latest methods of psychological network analysis.MethodsThe sample is the graduate students enrolled in September 2021. Participants completed (1) the Connor-Davidson Resilience Scale, (2) the University of Washington Resilience Scale-8 Item, (3) the Brief Resilience Scale, and (4) the Resilience Scale for Adults, each representing different orientations of resilience.ResultsThe network analysis grants greater clarity to the resilience perception as a dynamic system that interacts between an individual's tendency to intrinsic capacity and response to external resources. This study has shown that a positive perception of external social resources is the most important for individuals' resilience cognition; the effect of resilience intervention can be achieved more quickly by changing the individual's sense of hope.DiscussionBased on the results, a psychometric instrument that integrates different orientations of resilience concepts and is based on time-varying needs to be developed.

Published: January 2023

Background/aimLimited research has been conducted regarding the association between mental illness and dental caries. We studied the impact of emotional distress on current and new dental caries among low-income African-American caregivers in Detroit, Michigan and if this association was mediated by poor oral hygiene and sugar consumption and modified by a chronic health condition.MethodsData came from Detroit Dental Health Project, a prospective cohort study of low-income African American caregivers and their children. We focused on baseline (n = 1,021) and 4-year follow-up participants (n = 614). Dental caries were assessed using the International Caries Detection and Assessment System. The study outcomes included two baseline caries outcomes (counts of non-cavitated lesions, baseline counts of cavitated lesions) and two outcomes of new caries over 4 years (new cavitated lesions and new non-cavitated lesions). The exposure was emotional distress. We performed multivariable quasi-Poisson regression analysis to test the association between emotional distress and caries. We tested effect modification by stratifying data by chronic health conditions and performed causal mediation analysis to test an indirect effect of oral hygiene and sugar consumption.ResultsNinety six percent of the caregivers were female, and their average age was 28 years old. Thirteen percent reported emotional distress at baseline. After accounting for potential confounding, emotional distress was positively associated with cavitated lesions at baseline (IRR = 1.36, 95% CI = 1.08, 1.70). Among those with a chronic health condition, stronger association was observed (IRR = 1.73, 95% CI = 1.27, 2.35). After 4 years, those with emotional distress and chronic health conditions had an increased risk of developing non-cavitated carious lesions (IRR = 1.41, 95% CI = 1.06, 1.88). Poor oral hygiene explained 51% of the association between emotional distress and baseline cavitated lesions (natural indirect effect = 1.16, 95% CI = 1.02, 1.33), but there was no evidence for an indirect effect of sugar consumption.ConclusionIn this group of young, African-American caregivers with low socioeconomic status, dental caries was associated with emotional distress. This association was explained by poor oral hygiene and strengthened among those who reported a chronic health condition.

Published: January 2023

BackgroundThe number of persons with acquired brain injury (ABI) or spinal cord injury (SCI) who leave the labor market early despite successfully return to work post-injury, demonstrates the challenge for them to remain employed. Evidence on how enabling and hindering factors influence daily work across the lifespan and how they affect employment-related services is scarce. Professionals directly involved in work integration can add to this evidence through their experiential knowledge.PurposeTo identify and explore the factors that enable or hinder sustainable employment for persons with ABI or SCI from the perspective of health and work professionals.MethodsWe conducted 23 semi-structured interviews with professionals in Switzerland, directly involved in work reintegration and retention of persons with ABI or SCI. Interviews were transcribed verbatim and thematically analyzed.ResultsParticipants identified three main themes related to the concept of “sustainable employment”. First,the value and impact of initial work integration; an early, multidisciplinary, person-centered work integration, with the early involvement of employers is ideal. A good match between the worker and the workplace is sought. Second,critical factors for long-term sustainable work: the main risks for persons with ABI are changing supervisors, workplace restructuring and the introduction of new technologies, while deteriorating health and the occurrence of secondary health problems are the greatest risk for persons with SCI. Third,the relevance of knowledge, experience and attitudes of professionals; Knowledge of the consequences of an ABI or SCI, the legal basis and the social security process, and the attitude of professionals towards the injured worker were considered important.ConclusionsFrom the professional's perspective, enabling and hindering factors for sustainable employment in the long-term are fundamentally very similar for persons with ABI and SCI. But different physical, mental and neuropsychological effects call for individually adapted measures. While persons with SCI primarily require ongoing medical care, conscious management of changes in the workplace is critical for persons with ABI. For both groups, an easily accessible counseling and support service should be established for work-threatening problems in the long-term. Furthermore, diagnosis-specific training programs for professionals of employment-related services and disability management should be developed.

Plant-growth-promoting rhizobacteria (PGPR) increase the germination percentage and the vigor of seeds, thus determining aspects for the efficient production of seedlings and the prompt establishment of crops in the field. In this study, the effect of the biopriming of rhizobacteria was evaluated: Bacillus cereus (KBEndo4P6), Acinetobacter radioresistens (KBEndo3P1), Pseudomonas paralactis (KBEndo6P7), and Sinorhizobium meliloti (KBEkto9P6) on some parameters such as the percentage of germination and vigor and the germination index, among others, as well as the synthesis of phytocompounds in the seeds of Cucumis sativus L. biopriming seeds significantly improved germination, the germination index, the vigor, the plumule and the radicle length, in addition to an increase in phytochemical compounds. The rhizobacteria KBEndo3P1 increased the germination percentage by 20%, the germination index by 50%, and the seed vigor by 60%, as well as the length of the radicle by 11%, and the plumule by 48% compared to the control, and the total phenols and antioxidants increased by 9% and 29%, respectively. Biopriming with plant-growth-promoting rhizobacteria increases germination, which allows for the possibility of more outstanding production of seedlings and a greater length of the radicle, thus increasing the efficiency in the processes of water and nutrient absorption and improving its establishment in the field. In addition, the production of phytocompounds enhances their response against any type of stress, making them a viable alternative in sustainable agriculture to increase cucumber yield.

The perennial gramineous grass Miscanthus condensatus functions as a major pioneer plant in colonizing acidic volcanic deposits on Miyake-jima, Japan, despite a lack of nitrogen nutrients. The nitrogen cycle in the rhizosphere is important for the vigorous growth of M. condensatus in this unfavorable environment. In the present study, we identified the nitrogen-cycling bacterial community in the M. condensatus rhizosphere on these volcanic deposits using a combination of metagenomics and culture-based analyses. Our results showed a large number of functional genes related to denitrification and dissimilatory nitrate reduction to ammonium (DNRA) in the rhizosphere, indicating that nitrate-transforming bacteria dominated the rhizosphere biome. Furthermore, nitrite reductase genes (i.e., nirK and nirS) related to the denitrification and those genes related to DNRA (i.e., nirB and nrfA) were mainly annotated to the classes Alpha-proteobacteria, Beta-proteobacteria, and Gamma-proteobacteria. A total of 304 nitrate-succinate-stimulated isolates were obtained from the M. condensatus rhizosphere and were classified into 34 operational taxonomic units according to amplified 16S rRNA gene restriction fragment pattern analysis. Additionally, two strains belonging to the genus Cupriavidus in the class Beta-proteobacteria showed a high in vitro denitrifying activity; however, metagenomic results indicated that the DNRA-related rhizobacteria appeared to take a major role in the nitrogen cycle of the M. condensatus rhizosphere in recent Miyake-jima volcanic deposits. This study elucidates the association between the Miscanthus rhizosphere and the nitrate-reducing bacterial community on newly placed volcanic deposits, which furthers our understanding of the transformation of nitrogen nutrition involved in the early development of vegetation.

In order to investigate the translocation, distribution, and organic acid heterogeneity characteristics in Brassica juncea L., a pot experiment with the exogenous application of Cd and Zn was conducted to analyze the effects of Cd, Zn, and organic acid contents and heterogeneity on the translocation and distribution of Cd and Zn. The results showed that the Cd and Zn contents of B. juncea were mainly accumulated in the roots. The Cd content in the symplast sap was 127.66–146.50% higher than that in the apoplast sap, while the opposite was true for Zn. The distribution of Cd in xylem sap occupied 64.60% under 20 mg kg−1 Cd treatment, and Zn in xylem sap occupied 60.14% under 100 mg kg−1 Zn treatment. The Cd was predominantly distributed in the vacuole, but the Zn was predominantly distributed in the cell walls. In addition, oxalic and malic acids were present in high concentrations in B. juncea. In the vacuole, correlation analysis showed that the contents of Cd were negatively correlated with the contents of oxalic acid and succinic acid, and the contents of Zn were positively correlated with the contents of malic acid and acetic acid. The contents of Cd and Zn were negatively related to the contents of oxalic acid and citric acid in xylem sap. Therefore, Cd in B. juncea was mainly absorbed through the symplast pathway, and Zn was mainly absorbed through the apoplast pathway, and then Cd and Zn were distributed in the vacuole and cell walls. The Cd and Zn in B. juncea are transferred upward through the xylem and promoted by oxalic acid, malic acid, and citric acid.

Близорукость является одной из актуальных проблем офтальмологии, значительно ограничивая возможность занятия спортом, выбора профессии, трудоспособность в молодом и зрелом возрасте, поэтому вопрос эффективного и безопасного хирургического ее лечения остается актуальным на сегодняшний день. Современные методы кераторефракционной хирургии позволяют решить ряд задач: сохранение нативной формы роговицы при коррекции первичных рефракционных нарушений; восстановление нативной формы роговицы при коррекции индуцированных рефракционных нарушений; запланированное изменение нативной формы роговицы в определенных ситуациях (мультифокальная и тканесохраняющая абляция). Важнейшей составляющей успеха кераторефракционных операций в условиях роста количества и популярности рефракционной хирургии является ряд факторов со стороны пациента, значительно, хоть и не напрямую, влияющих на степень удовлетворенности результатами лазерной коррекции. К этим факторам относятся психологический портрет пациента, состояние передней поверхности глаза, постоянная полная коррекция очками/МКЛ, сохранение нативного баланса аберраций, состояние периферических отделов сетчатки.
Myopia is one of the urgent problems of ophthalmology, significantly limiting the possibility of playing sports, choosing a profession, working capacity at a young and mature age, and therefore the issue of effective and safe surgical treatment remains relevant today. Modern methods of keratorefractive surgery allow solving a number of problems: preservation of the native shape of the cornea during the correction of primary refractive disorders; restoration of the native form of the cornea in the correction of induced refractive disorders; planned change in the native shape of the cornea in certain situations (multifocal and tissue-preserving ablation). The most important component of the success of keratorefractive surgery in the context of the growing number and popularity of refractive surgery is a number of factors on the part of the patient, which significantly, although not directly, affect the degree of satisfaction with the results of laser correction. These factors include: the psychological portrait of the patient, the state of the anterior surface of the eye, permanent full correction with glasses/SCL, the preservation of the native balance of aberrations, the state of the peripheral parts of the retina.

Published: January 2023

Введение. Болезнь Вильсона – Коновалова (БВК) – наследственное нейрометаболическое заболевание, при котором происходит накопление меди в различных органах и системах. Пациентам назначается пожизненная терапия с целью удаления избыточно накопившейся меди и нормализации ее обмена. Цель. Оценить побочные эффекты медьэлиминирующей терапии пациентов с БВК, которые проходили лечение в РНПЦ неврологии и нейрохирургии. Материалы и методы. Проведены оценка побочных эффектов медьэлиминирующей терапии у 83 (100%) пациентов с неврологическими проявлениями БВК, динамический контроль клинико-лабораторных показателей. Результаты. Побочные эффекты терапии выявлены у 30 (36%) пациентов, из которых у 21 (25%) – прогрессирование неврологических симптомов на фоне приема пеницилламина, у 12 (14%) – другие побочные эффекты на фоне приема пеницилламина или сульфата цинка. Заключение. Несмотря на современные эффективные методы диагностики и терапии, БВК сложно диагностировать и сложно лечить. Побочные эффекты медьэлиминирующей терапии имеют широкий клинический диапазон и могут представлять собой угрожающие для жизни состояния. Это требует строгого динамического контроля клинико-лабораторных показателей, а также комплаентности пациентов.
Introduction. Wilson – Konovalov’s disease (WKD) is an inherited neurometabolic disorder that results in excessive copper deposition in various organs and systems. Patients should be treated for lifelong to remove excess copper and normalize its metabolism. Purpose. Evaluate the side effects of copper-eliminating therapy in patients with WKD. Materials and methods. The side effects of copper-eliminating therapy in 83 (100%) patients with WKD were assessed, dynamic monitoring of clinical and laboratory parameters was carried out. Results. Side effects of copper-eliminating therapy were detected in 30 (36%) patients, of which 21 (25%) patients had progression of neurological symptoms while taking penicillamine; 12 (14%) patients had other side effects while taking penicillamine or zinc sulfate. Conclusions. Despite modern effective methods of diagnosis and therapy, Wilson – Konovalov’s disease is difficult to diagnose and difficult to treat. The side effects of copper-eliminating therapy have a wide clinical range and can be life threatening. This requires strict dynamic monitoring of clinical and laboratory parameters, as well as compliance of patients.
