Building Ecosystem Resilience and Adaptive Capacity: a Systematic Review of Aspen Ecology and Management in the Southwest
Authors: Crouch Connor D , Rogers Paul C , Moore Margaret M , Waring Kristen M 
Published: February 2023

AbstractQuaking aspen (Populus tremuloides Michx.) has high conservation value on the southwestern edge of its range, which extends from the southwestern United States (i.e., Arizona, New Mexico, and Texas) to central Mexico. This value is driven by aspen’s ecological importance, positive impact on local economies, and aesthetic and cultural values. Generally, the scant aspen populations that remain in the Southwest lack resilience and adaptive capacity, and managers are unsure how best to maintain the species in an uncertain future. This systematic review seeks to address that need by reviewing existing literature from the Southwest on which biotic and abiotic factors influence aspen forest dynamics and by synthesizing that literature with a discussion of how management can promote aspen ecosystem resilience and adaptive capacity. We found that fire and silvicultural treatments promote aspen regeneration, but chronic ungulate browse inhibits recruitment. Moreover, drought is a driver of overstory mortality and has a negative influence on recruitment. In the second half of this review, we propose three management objectives for increasing aspen resilience and adaptive capacity: (1) promote diversity in age structure, (2) mitigate ungulate impacts, and (3) enhance complexity. We consider how various management strategies could meet these objectives and highlight potential threats to aspen forest health and resilience.
Constituting the negative globality of fear
Authors: Frankenberg Günter 
Published: February 2023

Abstract
This Editorial Reflection traces the global proliferation of pandemic fears and follows them through psychological theories as well as legal measures of infection control. Pandemic fears are included in the controversial discussion on how laws and constitutions (should) protect freedom in a pandemic and how the fear of contagion and the insecurity triggered by infection protection measures reinforce each other and contribute to the negativity of a pandemic. In closing, the article presents different forms of fear denial such as conspiracy myths, stimulated by anti-COVID-19 regimes of law and politics.

Abstract
Multisystem inflammatory syndrome in children (MIS-C) is a complication of severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus 2 (SARS-CoV-2) infection; in the United States, reporting of MIS-C after coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19) vaccination is required for vaccine safety monitoring. Pfizer-BioNTech COVID-19 vaccine was authorized for children aged 5−11 years on 29 October 2021. Covering a period when approximately 7 million children received vaccine, surveillance for MIS-C ≤ 90 days postvaccination using passive systems identified 58 children with MIS-C and laboratory evidence of past/recent SARS-CoV-2 infection, and 4 without evidence. During a period with extensive SARS-CoV-2 circulation, MIS-C illness in children after COVID-19 vaccination who lacked evidence of SARS-CoV-2 infection was rare (&lt;1 per million vaccinated children).
Comparison of an advanced automated ultrasonic scanner (AutoFom III) and a handheld optical probe (Destron PG-100) to determine lean yield in pork carcasses

Published: February 2023

AbstractThis study compared the accuracy of two methods for predicting carcass leanness (i.e., predicted lean yield) with fat-free lean yields obtained by manual carcass side cut-out and dissection of lean, fat, and bone components. The two prediction methods evaluated in this study estimated lean yield by measuring fat thickness and muscle depth at one location with an optical grading probe (Destron PG-100) or by scanning the entire carcass with advanced ultrasound technology (AutoFom III). Pork carcasses (166 barrows and 171 gilts; head-on hot carcass weights (HCWs) ranging from 89.4 to 138.0 kg) were selected based on their fit within desired HCW ranges, their fit within specific backfat thickness ranges, and sex (barrow or gilt). Data (n = 337 carcasses) were analyzed using a 3 × 2 factorial arrangement in a randomized complete block design including the fixed effects of the method for predicting lean yield, sex, and their interaction, and random effects of producer (i.e., farm) and slaughter date. Linear regression analysis was then used to examine the accuracy of the Destron PG-100 and AutoFom III data for measuring backfat thickness, muscle depth, and predicted lean yield when compared with fat-free lean yields obtained with manual carcass side cut-outs and dissections. Partial least squares regression analysis was used to predict the measured traits from image parameters generated by the AutoFom III software. There were method differences (P &lt; 0.01) for determining muscle depth and lean yield with no method differences (P = 0.27) for measuring backfat thickness. Both optical probe and ultrasound technologies strongly predicted backfat thickness (R2 ≥ 0.81) and lean yield (R2 ≥ 0.66), but poorly predicted muscle depth (R2 ≤ 0.33). The AutoFom III improved accuracy [R2 = 0.77, root mean square error (RMSE) = 1.82] for the determination of predicted lean yield vs. the Destron PG-100 (R2 = 0.66, RMSE = 2.22). The AutoFom III was also used to predict bone-in/boneless primal weights, which is not possible with the Destron PG-100. The cross-validated prediction accuracy for the prediction of primal weights ranged from 0.71 to 0.84 for bone-in cuts and 0.59 to 0.82 for boneless cut lean yield. The AutoFom III was moderately (r ≤ 0.67) accurate for the determination of predicted lean yield in the picnic, belly, and ham primal cuts and highly (r ≥ 0.68) accurate for the determination of predicted lean yield in the whole shoulder, butt, and loin primal cuts.
Using natural strata when examining unmeasured biases in an observational study of neurological side effects of antibiotics
Authors: Brumberg Katherine , Ellis Darcy E , Small Dylan S , Hennessy Sean , Rosenbaum Paul R 
Published: February 2023

AbstractFluoroquinolones are widely prescribed antibiotics that carry a US Food and Drug Administration warning about possible side-effects on the central and peripheral nervous system. We compare 436,891 patients with sinusitis treated with fluoroquinolones to two control groups treated with azithromycin or amoxicillin. In addition to looking for nervous system complications, we look for evidence of bias using outcomes for which an effect was not anticipated. The comparison uses ‘natural strata’ that form control groups proportional in size to the treated group and balance many covariates beyond those that define the strata. The main technical contribution is a new method for near-optimal construction of natural strata with multiple groups. The online supplement material contains proofs, details, and information about the R package natstrat and replication.
Understanding Self-Injury
Authors: Lewis Stephen P. , Hasking Penelope A. 
Published: February 2023

Abstract
Self-injury, the purposeful damaging of one’s own body tissue without suicidal intent represents a common and significant mental health concern across the globe. Notwithstanding the major strides made in our understanding of self-injury over the past twenty years, it remains enveloped by substantial stigma and misunderstanding. Unfortunately, this foments profound shame, isolation, and hopelessness for many people with lived experience of self-injury. As such, how we think about self-injury and support people who self-injure requires an approach grounded in understanding people’s unique stories and experiences. This involves explicit recognition of the many strengths and underlying resilience that all people with lived experience possess. Hence, this book is the first to offer a person-centered understanding of self-injury, with particular emphasis on several areas often overlooked in the literature, including: stigma, the language used to talk about self-injury, and recovery, among many others. Given its applied nature, the content of this book has relevance for mental health professionals and trainees, school professionals, families, and researchers. Moreover, by virtue of applying the content in this book, readers will not only develop a deeper and more compassionate understanding of self-injury but will be ideally positioned to work appropriately and effectively with individuals who have lived experience of self-injury.
Self-Injury and Suicidal Thoughts and Behaviors
Authors: Lewis Stephen P. , Hasking Penelope A. 
Published: February 2023

Abstract
Although, by definition, self-injury is not enacted with active suicidal intent, it would be inaccurate to say there is no association with suicidal thoughts and behaviors. Yet, the exact nature of this relation is complex. In some cases, people may engage in self-injury and never experience suicidal thoughts and behaviors. Other individuals may experience suicidal thoughts and behaviors, but never engage in self-injury. Still others may engage in both suicidal and nonsuicidal behaviors at different times in their life. This chapter outlines some of the factors that may contribute to the confusion regarding the relation between self-injury and suicidal thoughts and behaviors, presents the current state of knowledge regarding this association, and offers suggestions for a person-centered approach to enquiring about suicidal thoughts and behaviors.
Rethinking and Addressing Contagion
Authors: Lewis Stephen P. , Hasking Penelope A. 
Published: February 2023

Abstract
One of the most feared aspects of self-injury is the potential for self-injury “contagion” or the idea that self-injury can “spread” from one person to another. There is also concern that people can gain the idea to self-injure from popular or social media. This chapter summarizes the evidence for this socialization effect, and offers theoretical explanations for how people may model or adopt behavior exhibited by someone else. It also explores the potential for intervention or research settings, where self-injury is the topic of interest, to increase risk of self-injury among individuals engaging in treatment or participating in research. Finally, consistent with the person-centered themes that are the core of this book, it offers an alternative view of “contagion” that allows a broader consideration of the social causes and consequences of self-injury.
Self-Injury Recovery
Authors: Lewis Stephen P. , Hasking Penelope A. 
Published: February 2023

Abstract
Traditional approaches used to conceptualize recovery in the context of self-injury often place emphasis on cessation of the behavior. While this can represent an important facet of recovery, a broader and multipronged approach better captures the complexity of people’s recovery experiences. Thus, drawing on recent empirical evidence, lived experience voices, as well as calls from the field, the current chapter presents a novel, person-centered framework of self-injury recovery. In doing so, it also addresses how prior models may not be as well-suited to frame recovery. The subsequent chapter builds on the model outlined here and discusses its application in clinical settings.
Supporting People With Lived Experience
Authors: Lewis Stephen P. , Hasking Penelope A. 
Published: February 2023

Abstract
Given the significant stigma and numerous misconceptions often associated with self-injury, many individuals who self-injure are understandably reluctant to disclose their experience or talk about it once the topic is broached by someone in their life. Hence, this chapter highlights the importance of adopting a person-centered approach when interacting with people who have lived experience. This includes practical guidance for both initial and ongoing conversations. Additionally, the present chapter addresses specific concerns that people with lived experience of self-injury may have (e.g., scarring) and how to support people in this regard. Finally, it ends by discussing the importance of one’s own self-care.
An introduction to AMBIT
Authors: Cracknell Liz , Bevington Dickon 
Published: February 2023

Abstract
The overall AMBIT approach is described in this chapter, explaining the centrality of the concepts of mentalizing and epistemic trust. The four quadrants of the AMBIT wheel—‘Working with your Client’, ‘Working with your Team’, ‘Working with your Network’, and ‘Learning at Work’—are covered. For each quadrant, the role of mentalizing in this area of work is described, as well as the features of the stance, basic practice, and specific tools and techniques found to be helpful by workers who have applied them in a wide range of work settings and tasks.
Connecting psychotherapy to the streets
Authors: Dahlquist Ernst 
Published: February 2023

Abstract
This chapter describes the application of AMBIT principles to a well-established existing mental health service for young people in Malmö, Sweden. Using the AMBIT framework, the authors describe the development of an integrated model combining intensive outreach work and psychotherapy to enable young people who would never have considered having psychotherapy as a way of addressing their needs to enter into conversations where this type of help becomes accessible to them. The approach described is a highly relational one, in which existing relationships of trust are used to support young people in engaging in other helping relationships. The following key aspects of the Working with your Client quadrant are described: creating contact and establishing epistemic trust, care planning and linking to the network, concrete targeted support, emotional support, coexistence, reflective conversations, parent work, and psychological assessment.
AMBIT for adults with severe personality disorders
Authors: Knapen Saskia , van Duursen Rozemarijn 
Published: February 2023

Abstract
This chapter describes the adoption of the AMBIT framework by a team working with adults with a personality disorder diagnosis, in Utrecht, the Netherlands. The implementation of the AMBIT model in this service context is explained with reference to the four quadrants of the AMBIT wheel. In the first quadrant, Working with your Client, the challenge of establishing epistemic trust and the significance of scaffolding healthy existing relationships is explained. In Working with your Team, the importance of a well-connected team in in supporting individual workers’ mentalizing capacity is covered, and the use of daily team briefings and weekly or two-weekly intervision sessions. The AMBIT model was particularly relevant in highlighting to the service the importance of the third quadrant, Working with your Network, and building awareness of the prevalence of network dis-integration and the value of using the dis-integration grid. The fourth quadrant, Learning at Work, was implemented by creating a learning space via regular meetings to discuss progress and practice, manualizing, local trainings, and sharing practice with other mental healthcare organizations.
Applying AMBIT principles to the training process
Authors: Talbot Laura , Smith Rebecca , Wheeler James , Fuggle Peter 
Published: February 2023

Abstract
The AMBIT training process involves the application of AMBIT principles, as well as training in them. Learning is central to the AMBIT approach, and the learning principles that are used in the practice of AMBIT are also used in training, starting with close attention to the relationship between trainer and trainee and the requirement to generate epistemic trust for learning to take place. The principles of Active Planning are particularly salient to training, and the elements of sensitive attunement and broadcasting intentions are described in the training context. In addition to the relationship between trainer and trainee, the role of training in strengthening and supporting relationships in both teams and networks is covered.
Itch and Herpes Zoster
Authors: Rowbotham Michael C. 
Published: February 2023

Abstract
This chapter presents the case of an 85-year-old woman who suffers from chronic postherpetic neuralgia (PHN) after ophthalmic zoster characterized by intractable itch at the face. She reports severe daily pain described as burning, lancinating, and sensitive to touch and wind, despite 30 mg of hydrocodone per day, which induces somnolence and constipation. She had not received the zoster vaccine. Weak opioids are generally ineffective for neuropathic pain, but they have a place for acute herpes zoster when pain is both inflammatory and neuropathic. In this case, the first step is to try a gabapentinoid (either pregabalin or gabapentin), an antidepressant (either tricyclic or duloxetine), or a topical agent, although the latter have a more limited role for facial pain. However, the best treatment for PHN is prevention of shingles, and all eligible persons should be vaccinated.
Painful Legs and Diabetes (1)
Authors: Attal Nadine , Bouhassira Didier 
Published: February 2023

Abstract
This chapter presents the case of a 48-year-old man with type II diabetes and alcoholism who reports bilateral and symmetrical at both feet described as neuropathic. Blood tests show chronic hepatitis. He satisfies criteria for diabetic and/or alcoholic painful neuropathy. Diabetic painful neuropathy affects 15–35% of patients with diabetes and is more prevalent in type II diabetes. Risks may be enhanced by alcohol. Initial management focuses on glycemic control and lifestyle measures, whereas neuropathic pain requires specific antineuropathic treatments. Since this patient had contraindications or did not tolerate first line recommended drugs for painful diabetic neuropathies (e.g., duloxetine, gabapentin, pregabalin) and his pain area was limited and well circumscribed, second line topical treatments including off label 5% lidocaine plasters (US Food and Drug Administration and European Medical Agency approved for postherpetic neuralgia) and high-concentration capsaicin patches (US Food and Drug Administration approved for diabetic painful neuropathies and postherpetic neuralgia) were proposed.
Painful Legs and Diabetes (2)
Authors: Attal Nadine , Bouhassira Didier 
Published: February 2023

Abstract
This chapter presents the case of a 58-year-old woman with a past history of smoking and type II diabetes necessitating insulin therapy who complains of pain in the lower limbs. Electromyography shows an axonal neuropathy of the lower limbs. However, her pain is not due to diabetic neuropathy but, rather, to severe peripheral arterial disease. This woman finally underwent surgical revascularization. Recovery was total, and duloxetine could be stopped. This case reminds that many patients with diabetic neuropathy have pain in the feet, but their pain is not necessarily related to their neuropathy, and other frequent causes include nociceptive pains due to ulcers, infections, bedsores, arthropathy, and peripheral arterial disease.
Orofacial Pain
Authors: Attal Nadine , Bouhassira Didier 
Published: February 2023

Abstract
This chapter presents a case of a young woman who suffers from chronic orofacial pain, which appeared after left mandibular third molar avulsion. Pain is continuous, described as hot/burning and aching, without pain paroxysms and involving the whole hemiface. Clinical examination is normal. This case is compatible with persistent idiopathic orofacial pain (formerly atypical facial pain), which may be triggered by minor trauma or surgery particularly involving the dental nerves. There is a continuum between idiopathic orofacial pain and post-traumatic trigeminal neuropathic pain. The management is similar to that of peripheral neuropathic pain and includes psychological therapy because this pain is often associated with psychological or psychiatric comorbidities.
Brachial Plexus Avulsion
Authors: de Andrade Daniel Ciampi 
Published: February 2023

Abstract
This chapter presents the case of a young man who suffers from neuropathic pain at the left hand since a traumatic brachial plexus avulsion while driving a motorcycle. Pain is mainly paroxysmal, with intense spontaneous electric shock-like discharges. At examination, the patient has complete paralysis and extended anesthesia of the left arm. This case is compatible with brachial plexus avulsion (BPA) caused by high-energy traction to the brachial plexus, usually during a motorcycle accident. BPA commonly causes neuropathic (mainly paroxysmal) pain and musculoskeletal pain. Neuropathic pain and musculoskeletal pain may be difficult to differentiate in these patients, and this may be helped by screening questionnaires.
Pain and Paraplegia
Authors: Attal Nadine , Bouhassira Didier 
Published: February 2023

Abstract
This chapter presents the case of a young patient with T10 paraplegia who suffers from several types of pain: neuropathic below-level pain at the lower limbs; musculoskeletal pain at the shoulder; and lower pain, visceral abdominal pain, and peripheral neuropathic pain due to ulnar compression at the upper limbs. Pain after spinal cord injury (SCI) is frequent and is often neuropathic, but other types of pain often coexist. Screening questionnaires are helpful to discriminate neuropathic SCI pains from other types of pain. Management should be multimodal and depend on pain mechanisms. For below-level neuropathic pain, oral antineuropathic drugs and physical therapies may be proposed. For at-level or above-level SCI, additional treatments may include topical agents and transcutaneous electrical nerve stimulation.
Opioids
Authors: Rowbotham Michael C. 
Published: February 2023

Abstract
This chapter presents the case of a man with failed back surgery syndrome and neuropathic pain in the leg who has a past history of psychoactive drug and alcohol abuse. He received strong opioids soon after his injury and continues to use oxycodone and hydromorphone for breakthrough pain; he never received first-line antineuropathic drug. Strong opioids are not recommended as first line for chronic neuropathic pain but, rather, only as last choice. Current or past alcohol or psychoactive drug abuse are red flags for problematic opioid use, Opioid tolerance develops very soon after opioid initiation, but opioid-induced hyperalgesia is not yet proven to be a common clinically relevant phenomenon.
Complementary Medicine
Authors: Tosti Grégory 
Published: February 2023

Abstract
This chapter presents the case of a man with alcoholic neuropathy who has refractory pain to several lines of treatments. Given the refractory nature of the pain and the severity and impact on his daily life, he was encouraged to start hypnosis. Although hypnosis has been shown to be effective for acute pain, evidence is weaker for chronic pain. There are no clear predictive factors of the response, but there are virtually no side effect and very few contraindications. Other complementary techniques for chronic neuropathic pain include mindfulness, acupuncture, relaxation, yoga, and biofeedback. The level of evidence for their efficacy, specifically with regard to neuropathic pain, is limited and better documented for mindfulness.
