Authors: Osborne Lauren Julia , Gowran Rosemary Joan , Casey Jackie 
Published: January 2023

Introduction:People with complex physical disabilities unable to change their position independently are at risk of developing postural deformities and secondary complications. 24-hour posture management is needed to protect body structure. With inconsistencies in current service provision, this research aimed to scope the evidence for a 24-hour posture management approach.Method:A scoping review was conducted using four health and social science databases. Inclusion and exclusion criteria were applied; further papers were included through citation chaining.Results:The evidence for 24-hour posture management was often low quality due to the complications of completing robust research studies in this complex specialty. However, many professionals in the field agree that a 24-hour approach to postural care is essential.Conclusion:There is a need for clear national policy and guidance relating to postural care and scope for development of dedicated posture management services. Current NHS service provision is variable and inconsistent. Lack of postural care is a safeguarding and human rights issue. Specialist training and research in postural care within the Occupational Therapy profession is required to raise awareness of the role Occupational Therapists can play in preventing postural deformities and other secondary complications through providing good postural care.
Predicting ETF liquidity

Substantial transaction costs are incurred in exchange-traded fund (ETF) trading each year. This article examines a vector autoregressive (VAR) model’s performance and other trading schedules to time trades in a large sample of 1350 ETFs over the 2011–2017 period. We reject the notion of a one-size-fits-all trading schedule that maximizes spread savings for all ETF traders. ETF traders who want to split their orders could save 7.40% of ETF spread costs, whereas trading at the market closing time would be optimal for ETF traders without motives to split trades. The spread savings for ETF traders are diverse across ETF sectors and depend on the spread volatility. JEL Classification: G11, G23

Academic Abstract Social psychology’s disconnect from the vital and urgent questions of people’s lived experiences reveals limitations in the current paradigm. We draw on a related perspective in social psychology1—the sociocultural approach—and argue how this perspective can be elaborated to consider not only social psychology as a historical science but also social psychology of and for world-making. This conceptualization can make sense of key theoretical and methodological challenges faced by contemporary social psychology. As such, we describe the ontology, epistemology, ethics, and methods of social psychology of and for world-making. We illustrate our framework with concrete examples from social psychology. We argue that reconceptualizing social psychology in terms of world-making can make it more humble yet also more relevant, reconnecting it with the pressing issues of our time. Public Abstract We propose that social psychology should focus on “world-making” in two senses. First, people are future-oriented and often are guided more by what could be than what is. Second, social psychology can contribute to this future orientation by supporting people’s world-making and also critically reflecting on the role of social psychological research in world-making. We unpack the philosophical assumptions, methodological procedures, and ethical considerations that underpin a social psychology of and for world-making. Social psychological research, whether it is intended or not, contributes to the societies and cultures in which we live, and thus it cannot be a passive bystander of world-making. By embracing social psychology of and for world-making and facing up to the contemporary societal challenges upon which our collective future depends will make social psychology more humble but also more relevant.

Thyrotropin-releasing hormone (TRH) and TRH-like peptides carry a therapeutic potential for neurological conditions. Nanoparticles (NP) made of the biodegradable polymer, Poly(Sebacic Anhydride) (PSA), have been developed to carry TRH, intended for intranasal administration to patients. There is limited information on the safety of biodegradable polymers when given intranasally, and therefore, we have performed two preclinical safety and toxicity studies in cynomolgus monkeys and rats using TRH-PSA nanoparticles. The rats and monkeys were dosed intranasally for 42 days or 28 days, respectively, and several animals were followed for additional 14 days. Animals received either placebo, vehicle (PSA), or different concentrations of TRH-PSA. No systemic adverse effects were seen. Changes in T3 or T4 concentrations were observed in some TRH-PSA-treated animals, which did not have clinical or microscopic correlates. No effect was seen on TSH or prolactin concentrations. In the monkey study, microscopic changes in the nasal turbinates were observed, which were attributed to incidental mechanical trauma caused during administration. Taken together, the TRH-loaded PSA NPs have proven to be safe, with no local or systemic adverse effects attributed to the drug loaded nanoparticles. These findings provide additional support to the growing evidence of the safety of peptide-loaded NPs for intranasal delivery and pave the way for future clinical trials in humans.

Published: January 2023

Introduction: Anaphylaxis is an acute, life-threatening, multi-system syndrome that has been reported with a wide range of medications. Though anaphylaxis usually has a rapid onset, we describe a patient who developed anaphylaxis to intravenous colistin after 28 days of daily administration. Case presentation: A 20 years-old Caucasian male patient, with a history of relapsed acute myeloid leukemia, was transferred from the medical floor to our intensive care unit with septic shock. The source of infection was presumed to be a recto-cecal abscess and arm cellulitis. Cultures were positive for extended spectrum beta-lactamase (ESBL) and carbapenem-resistant enterobacteriaceae (CRE) Escherichia coli. for which he was receiving broad spectrum antibiotics, as well as intravenous colistin, started about 4 weeks earlier. On day 2 of ICU admission, and during the administration of colistin, the patient experienced an anaphylactic reaction. He developed hypotension requiring the initiation of norepinephrine, shortness of breath, hypoxia, tachycardia, and tachypnea. The reaction was resolved after supportive therapy but it was thought to be related to septic shock and therefore the patient continued on colistin the following day. The patient tolerated colistin for the next 3 days before developing another similar, but more severe, reaction. Colistin was discontinued and the symptoms resolved following supportive therapy. Conclusion: This case highlights the importance of being aware of delayed serious reactions that may occur several weeks after initiation of drug therapy. In addition, successful re-initiation may not necessarily rule out the recurrence of such reactions and therefore close monitoring is crucial.

Children with autism spectrum disorder (ASD) are often placed in inclusive mainstream education (ME) or exclusive special education (SE) settings. While ME settings usually offer less-intensive and structured intervention programs than SE settings, they offer more exposure to typically developing peers. A total of 121 children (2–5 years old) with ASD, 85 in SE and 36 in ME, completed two Autism Diagnostic Observation Schedule, 2nd edition (ADOS-2) assessments. Repeated-measures analysis of covariance (ANCOVA) analyses were used to assess longitudinal changes in ADOS-2 calibrated severity scores (CSS) and language production (estimated from the ADOS-2), while accounting for baseline cognitive scores, age of diagnosis, and parent-reported intensity of intervention. Longitudinal changes in ADOS CSS did not differ significantly across educational settings but were strongly associated with the age of diagnosis, demonstrating that children diagnosed earlier improved more regardless of educational settings. These findings suggest that children with ASD placed in SE and ME exhibit similar longitudinal changes in core ASD symptoms. Further studies comparing additional outcome measures such as cognitive abilities and adaptive behaviors are highly warranted for establishing placement recommendations and public health policies. Lay abstract Today, children with autism spectrum disorder (ASD) are placed in mainstream or special education settings somewhat arbitrarily with no clear clinical recommendations. Here, we compared changes in core ASD symptoms, as measured by the Autism Diagnostic Observation Schedule, 2nd edition (ADOS-2) clinical assessment, across ASD preschool children placed in special or mainstream education. Longitudinal changes in ADOS-2 scores did not differ significantly across settings over a 1- to 2-year period. While some children improved in core ASD symptoms, others deteriorated in both settings. This highlights the need to identify specific criteria for establishing meaningful placement recommendations.

Research capacity building is a process by which individuals and organizations develop skills and infrastructure resulting in greater ability to conduct useful research. Frequently, research quality and productivity measures focus on outcomes, such as peer-reviewed publications or grants awarded. Such distal measures are not informative when measuring initial stages of research, a common situation in low- and middle-income countries. This study used Cooke’s six-principle framework to assess the progress of an autism research collaborative in northern Mexico. We established 64 criteria across the six principles and rated them as Not Started, In Progress, or Achieved, based on narratives and process documentation collected for this purpose. Ratings were established for the years 2018, 2020, and 2022, which correspond to Years 5, 7, and 9 since the beginning of the collaborative, respectively. As of 2022, Principles 2 and 3 (“Close to practice” and “Linkages, collaborations, and partnerships,” respectively) had all begun; no criteria were rated as Not started. The principles with the highest Achieved rates were “Linkages, collaborations, and partnerships” (90%), and “Infrastructure” (Principle 6, 70%). Cooke’s research capacity building framework is a useful way to monitor progress of research capacity building and contribute to harmonious development of relevant principles at different levels. Lay abstract To inform improvement of care and public policy, quality research is required. Conducting research projects requires skills and infrastructure. Research capacity building is the process by which individuals and organizations develop greater ability to conduct useful research.

Published: January 2023

Objectives This study aimed to explore carers’ experiences of supporting a family member or friend with dementia through COVID-19 and experiences of hope and resilience during this time. Methods Qualitative longitudinal research was undertaken in the UK, with 13 unpaid carers of people living with dementia who took part in two semi-structured interviews 8 weeks apart between June and October 2020. All transcripts were analysed using reflexive thematic analysis. Findings Four themes were developed and included: COVID-19 impacted negatively upon everyday living; carer resilience: adapting to COVID-19; analysis of risk: safeguarding the person living with dementia; and thinking about the future with COVID-19. Conclusions The results illustrated how the sudden changes which occurred during the pandemic negatively impacted on carers and people living with dementia in several ways, including additional responsibilities and taking away hope. The importance of continued formal and informal support for carers and people living with dementia during COVID-19 were highlighted. Formal services, care homes, and organisations need to be supported to implement procedures to ensure a safe environment during future lockdowns or periods of social restrictions. This will enable carers to remain visiting their family members and increase their confidence in accessing services and allowing paid carers to support their family member with dementia. These results have also illustrated the resilience of carers, who adapted to sudden changes which impacted negatively on their wellbeing and the wellbeing of the person living with dementia.

Introduction: The treatment of chronic postdissection aneurysms of the aortic arch is a challenge. This study aims to describe false lumen management after aortic arch endovascular repair of post-type A dissection aneurysms treated with a branched endograft. Methods: In this single-center retrospective observational study, all consecutive patients undergoing endovascular treatment of aneurysmal degeneration of chronic type A aortic dissections following open repair were enrolled. The primary endpoint was maximal aortic diameter evolution measured on computed tomography angiography (CTA) performed during follow-up. Secondary endpoints included procedural success, aortic re intervention, and remodeling during follow-up. Results: Between January 2017 and June 2020, 22 patients underwent endovascular branched arch repair for post type A dissection aneurysms. Technical success was 100%. Thirteen patients (59%) had dissection involvement of at least 1 supra-aortic vessel. Midterm follow-up CTA was performed for 20 patients, 23.1 (±13.3) months after the procedure. Maximal aortic diameter at the level of the repair was decreasing in 13 (65%) patients, increasing in 2 (10%) patients, and no change was observed in 5 (25%) patients. During follow-up, 7 patients (35%) required aortic reintervention. Thoracic candy plugs were implanted for distal false lumen occlusion in 15 patients and associated with a high rate of complete remodeling (6/15 patients, 40%). Conclusion: Arch branch endografting of aneurysmal evolution of a post type A dissection aortic arch is a safe and feasible option in experienced hands. Candy plug use in favorable anatomies seems to be associated with accelerated remodeling of the aorta. Clinical Impact There are currently no recommendations on dissected supra- aortic vessels management and the use of thoracic aorta false lumen occlusion devices during endovascular repair of chronic post dissection aneurysm of the aortic arch with branched endografts. Based on our clinical experience reported in the current manuscript, we propose a treatment algorithm for the management of the false lumen in this setting.

Published: January 2023

Background: Maternal depression may affect child feeding practices and growth. Objective: The objective of this study is to determine the relationship between child feeding practices and current maternal depression with malnutrition among young children in a rural community. Methods: This is a case–control study consisting of 52 Malay mothers of malnourished children (case) and 50 Malay mothers of well-nourished children (control) in Kuala Langat, Selangor, Malaysia. Structured questionnaires on child feeding practices and Beck Depression Inventory: Second Edition questionnaire were distributed to mothers. Results: Depressed mothers stopped exclusive breastfeeding (2.8 ± 2.1 months) earlier than non-depressed mothers (3.7 ± 2.0 months; p = 0.045). Binary logistic regression analysis showed current maternal depression was a primary contributor associated with risk of malnutrition in children (adjusted odds ratio: 2.5, 95% confidence interval: 1.08–6.09), and followed by the number of children (adjusted odds ratio: 1.3, 95% confidence interval: 1.02–1.77). Conclusion: Mothers who experienced depression were twice as likely to have malnourished children. Each additional child in the family will increase the risk of malnutrition by 1.3 times. Maternal depression is associated with child feeding practices and malnutrition among young children in the studied population. Preliminary screening to identify depression symptoms should be conducted to all mothers as early as the first trimester to prevent the incidence of malnutrition in children.

Published: January 2023

Background: The Wireless Innovation for Seniors with Diabetes Mellitus (WISDM) study demonstrated continuous glucose monitoring (CGM) reduced hypoglycemia over 6 months among older adults with type 1 diabetes (T1D) compared with blood glucose monitoring (BGM). We explored heterogeneous treatment effects of CGM on hypoglycemia by formulating a data-driven decision rule that selects an intervention (ie, CGM vs BGM) to minimize percentage of time <70 mg/dL for each individual WISDM participant. Method: The precision medicine analyses used data from participants with complete data (n = 194 older adults, including those who received CGM [n = 100] and BGM [n = 94] in the trial). Policy tree and decision list algorithms were fit with 14 baseline demographic, clinical, and laboratory measures. The primary outcome was CGM-measured percentage of time spent in hypoglycemic range (<70 mg/dL), and the decision rule assigned participants to a subgroup reflecting the treatment estimated to minimize this outcome across all follow-up visits. Results: The optimal decision rule was found to be a decision list with 3 steps. The first step moved WISDM participants with baseline time-below range >1.35% and no detectable C-peptide levels to the CGM subgroup (n = 139), and the second step moved WISDM participants with a baseline time-below range of >6.45% to the CGM subgroup (n = 18). The remaining participants (n = 37) were left in the BGM subgroup. Compared with the BGM subgroup (n = 37; 19%), the group for whom CGM minimized hypoglycemia (n = 157; 81%) had more baseline hypoglycemia, a lower proportion of detectable C-peptide, higher glycemic variability, longer disease duration, and higher proportion of insulin pump use. Conclusions: The decision rule underscores the benefits of CGM for older adults to reduce hypoglycemia. Diagnostic CGM and laboratory markers may inform decision-making surrounding therapeutic CGM and identify older adults for whom CGM may be a critical intervention to reduce hypoglycemia.

Objective Although most frequently used in experimental osteoarthritis (OA) pain induction, intra-articular mono-iodoacetate (MIA) injection lacks concluded references for dose selection and timing of intervention. Herein, we aimed to compare the pain intensity of rats induced by different doses of MIA and explored the trajectory of pain. Design PubMed, Embase, and Web of Science were searched up to June 2021 for literatures involving MIA experiments investigating OA pain. Pain intensity was measured based on weightbearing distribution (WBD) and paw withdrawal thresholds (PWT), and the pain trajectory was constructed by evaluating pain intensity at a series of time points after MIA injection. A conventional meta-analysis was conducted. Results A total of 140 studies were included. Compared with saline, MIA injections caused significantly higher pain intensity for WBD and PWT. Dose-response relationships between different doses of MIA and pain intensity were observed ( P-for-trend<0.05). A pronounced increase in pain occurred from day 0 to day 7, but the uptrend ceased between day 7 and day 14, after which the pain intensity continued to rise and reached the maximum by day 28. Conclusions Pain intensity after intra-articular MIA injection increased in a dose-dependent manner and the pain trajectory manifested a specific pattern consistent with the pathological mechanisms of MIA-induced pain, providing possible clues for proper dose selection and timing of specific OA pain interventions.
