Published: June 2023

AbstractThe maple syrup industry has growth potential in the United States. Foresters can help expand the maple syrup industry by supporting private forest management decisions to improve maple tree health and sap production. This study examined the influence of advice solicitation, active listening, and forester traits (i.e., expertise, confidence, trustworthiness, shared forestland values) on outcomes of professional advice about maple syrup production and sugarbush management. Regression models were used to analyze data from a survey targeted at Wisconsin maple syrup producers (n = 149). Compared with unsolicited advice, advice outcomes were more positive when landowners actively sought it, although advice solicitation had a stronger influence on perceived quality of advice than advice utilization. Landowners evaluated advice more positively and had greater intention to use the advice when the forester actively listened to them. Perceiving positive traits in the forester has the strongest impact on landowners’ evaluations and adoption of advice.Study Implications: By examining the role of forester traits, giving (un)solicited advice, and active listening in affecting private forest landowners’ perceptions and use of advice about maple syrup production and sugarbush management, this study informs the design of training programs aimed at equipping foresters with effective communication skills. To achieve optimal communication outcomes, foresters should tactfully create the perception that the landowner requested their advice, such as by eliciting questions and encouraging landowners to explain their management motivations. Further, foresters should demonstrate expertise, show confidence, build trust, and create compatible management philosophies with the landowner by acknowledging the landowner’s perspectives.

Abstract

Objective
Identify and describe trajectories of cancer-related posttraumatic stress symptoms (PTSS) among siblings of children with cancer within two years of diagnosis.

Method
Siblings (aged 8–18; M = 11.2 years) across the United States, and for each, one caregiver, were recruited for a cohort sequential longitudinal study with three data collection points six months apart beginning at 6- or 12-months after cancer diagnosis. Siblings (N = 229; 42% of eligible/approached; 53% identifying as female; 68% identifying as non-Hispanic White) completed the Child Posttraumatic Stress Disorder Symptom Scale. Caregivers completed the Strengths and Difficulties Questionnaire (SDQ). Latent class growth analysis (LCGA) and growth mixture modeling (GMM) identified PTSS patterns across time.

Results
Fit statistics supported models with three to five PTSS trajectories. The three-class LCGA model included a large mild PTSS group (61%), a moderate PTSS group (35%), and a small (4%) stable severe PTSS group. The four-class LCGA and three- and four-class GMM included groups improving from moderate to mild PTSS (7–21%) and worsening to moderate PTSS across time (12–17%). Across models, siblings with mild PTSS had fewer caregiver-reported emotional and behavioral difficulties on the SDQ.

Conclusions
A large group of siblings of children with cancer demonstrate resiliency, however, substantial subsets experience patterns of PTSS that include levels in the moderate-to-severe range during the first two years post-diagnosis. Future research should examine these patterns in more diverse/representative samples and identify factors associated with increasing and sustained severe PTSS to inform intervention targets and reduce cancer-related burden on families.
Personality recognition in Digital Humanities: A review of computational approaches in the humanities
Authors: Picca Davide , Pitteloud Jocelin 
Published: June 2023

Abstract
One of the most fascinating aspects of human beings is their personality. Two models that are currently being researched and widely used in computational approaches are the Myers–Briggs Type Indicator and the Big Five (or OCEAN). In this study, we will briefly examine the history of these two models and the current state of their applications in the Digital Humanities field. Although categorizing research in Digital Humanities is a challenging task, we have chosen to include works that, while primarily psychological in nature, use methodologies and methods from Digital Humanities, specifically in literary texts. Consequently, we can divide this research into two categories. On the one hand, there are works that aim to study and identify the personalities of fictional characters in literature or movies. On the other hand, there are works that aim to recreate personalities in virtual characters based on a predetermined model. We will therefore examine the works proposed by the scientific community for both approaches.
StarUnLink: identifying and mitigating signals from communication satellites in stellar spectral surveys

ABSTRACT
A relatively new concern for the forthcoming massive spectroscopic sky surveys is the impact of contamination from low earth orbit satellites. Several hundred thousand of these satellites are licensed for launch in the next few years and it has been estimated that, in some cases, up to a few per cent of spectra could be contaminated when using wide field, multifibre spectrographs. In this paper, a multistaged approach is used to assess the practicality and limitations of identifying and minimizing the impact of satellite contamination in a WEAVE-like stellar spectral survey. We develop a series of convolutional-network-based architectures to attempt identification, stellar parameter and chemical abundances recovery, and source separation of stellar spectra that we artificially contaminate with satellite (i.e. solar-like) spectra. Our results show that we are able to flag 67 per cent of all contaminated sources at a precision level of 80 per cent for low-resolution spectra and 96 per cent for high-resolution spectra. Additionally, we are able to remove the contamination from the spectra and recover the clean spectra with a &lt;1 per cent reconstruction error. The errors in stellar parameter predictions reduce by up to a factor of 2–3 when either including contamination as an augmentation to a training set or by removing the contamination from the spectra, with overall better performance in the former case. The presented methods illustrate several machine learning mitigation strategies that can be implemented to improve stellar parameters for contaminated spectra in the WEAVE stellar spectroscopic survey and others like it.

Abstract

Background
Pancreatic cancer (PC) represents an aggressive disease with median overall survival (OS) of less than 1 year in the front-line setting. FOLFIRINOX and gemcitabine and paclitaxel (GP) are standard of care options for these patients; however, optimal selection of therapy is challenging.

Methods
Comprehensive genomic profiling was performed on 8358 PC patients. Outcomes were available for 1149 metastatic PC patients treated with 1L FOLFIRINOX or GP. A scar-based measure of HRD was called using a machine learning-based algorithm incorporating copy number and indel features.

Results
A scar-based HRD signature (HRDsig) was identified in 9% of patients. HRDsig significantly co-occurred with biallelic alterations in BRCA1/2, PALB2, BARD1, and RAD51C/D, but encompassed a larger population than that defined by BRCA1/BRCA2/PALB2 (9% vs. 6%). HRDsig was predictive of 1L FOLFIRNOX chemotherapy benefit with doubled OS relative to gemcitabine and paclitaxel (GP) (rwOS aHR 0.37 [0.22-0.62]), including 25% of the population with long-term (2 year+) survival in a real-world cohort of patients. Less benefit from FOLFIRINOX was observed in the HRDsig(−) population. Predictive value was seen in both the BRCA1/2/PALB2 mutant and wildtype populations, suggesting additional value to mutational profiling.

Conclusion
A scar-based HRD biomarker was identified in a significant fraction of PC patients and is predictive of FOLFIRINOX benefit. Incorporating a biomarker like HRDsig could identify the right patients for platinum chemotherapy and potentially reduce FOLFIRINOX use by over 40%, minimizing toxicities with similar survival outcomes. Confirmatory studies should be performed.

AbstractBackground and HypothesisThe hippocampus is a heterogenous brain structure that differs between the sexes and has been implicated in the pathophysiology of psychiatric illnesses. Here, we explored sex and diagnostic group differences in hippocampal subfield volumes, in individuals with schizophrenia spectrum disorder (SZ), bipolar disorders (BD), and healthy controls (CTL).Study DesignOne thousand and five hundred and twenty-one participants underwent T1-weighted magnetic resonance imaging (SZ, n = 452, mean age 30.7 ± 9.2 [SD] years, males 59.1%; BD, n = 316, 33.7 ± 11.4, 41.5%; CTL, n = 753, 34.1 ± 9.1, 55.6%). Total hippocampal, subfield, and intracranial volumes were estimated with Freesurfer (v6.0.0). Analysis of covariance and multiple regression models were fitted to examine sex-by-diagnostic (sub)group interactions in volume. In SZ and BD, separately, associations between volumes and clinical as well as cognitive measures were examined between the sexes using regression models.Study ResultsSignificant sex-by-group interactions were found for the total hippocampus, dentate gyrus, molecular layer, presubiculum, fimbria, hippocampal-amygdaloid transition area, and CA4, indicating a larger volumetric deficit in male patients relative to female patients when compared with same-sex CTL. Subgroup analyses revealed that this interaction was driven by males with schizophrenia. Effect sizes were overall small (partial η &lt; 0.02). We found no significant sex differences in the associations between hippocampal volumes and clinical or cognitive measures in SZ and BD.ConclusionsUsing a well-powered sample, our findings indicate that the pattern of morphological sex differences in hippocampal subfields is altered in individuals with schizophrenia relative to CTL, due to higher volumetric deficits in males.
Physicians’ perspectives on different therapeutic approaches for aluminum phosphide poisoning and their relevant outcomes

Published: June 2023

Abstract

Background
Aluminum phosphide is a highly toxic pesticide that results in high mortality. To date, there is neither a definitive antidote nor a unified protocol for managing acute aluminum phosphide poisoning.

Objectives
This cross-sectional questionnaire-based study aims to explore different management approaches and rely on the expertise of Egyptian medical professionals to enhance the prognosis for acute aluminum phosphide poisoning.

Subjects and methods
A self-administered questionnaire was formulated and electronically distributed according to published literature and experience of senior physicians.

Results and conclusions
Responses were received from 151 physicians from 10 governorates. Management modalities were variable among respondents. Noradrenaline was used by 90.7% of respondents with no fixed-dose regimen. In all, 84.1% of participants utilized oil in gastrointestinal decontamination; paraffin oil was the most used solution. Overall, 92.1, 61.6, 46.4, and 34.4% of participants used sodium bicarbonate, proton pump inhibitors, IV magnesium sulfate, and antioxidants, respectively. Regarding the frequency of acute aluminum phosphide poisoning, 47% of participants managed these cases daily or a few times a week. Participants' responses denoted a poor prognosis of acute aluminum phosphide poisoning, and high percentages attributed the prognosis to exposure factors rather than treatment modalities. Statistical analysis revealed that using oil in gastrointestinal decontamination improved the outcome by 4.62-fold. Clinical toxicologists were more likely to rescue ≥ 30% of the cases about 3-fold (2.97) than other specialties. Clinical toxicologists used oil in gastrointestinal decontamination, magnesium sulfate, and antioxidant therapy and calculated base deficit before administration of sodium bicarbonate by 7.70-, 5.30-, 3.26-, and 2.08-fold than other specialties.

Abstract
Skull shape analysis provides useful information on wildlife ecology and potential local adaptations. Common bottlenose dolphins (Tursiops truncatus) often differentiate between coastal and offshore populations worldwide, and skull shape analyses can be particularly useful in this context. Here we quantify skull shape variation between coastal populations from the Gulf of Guayaquil (Ecuador) and the Mediterranean Sea, compared to offshore specimens from multiple oceans. We analysed skull shape differences using 3D models from museum specimens through geometric morphometrics (3DGM). Two complementary landmark approaches included single-point semi-landmarks in homologous features, as well as pseudo-landmarks placed automatically. Results show skull shape distinction between both coastal populations and offshore specimens. Offshore specimens showed little differentiation between distinct locations. Skull shape patterns mostly diverged in the shape and length of rostrum, as well as the shape of the ascending processes of the maxilla, pterygoids, and occipital bones. However, both coastal populations differed in the patterns and direction of change of those features and were also morphologically distinct. Our results are consistent with local data on site fidelity and social structure in the coastal populations. Skull shape changes suggest divergent feeding and sound production patterns are potential drivers, probably specific to the local environment of each community.
Drugs of Abuse and Sexual Function: What Is New?
Authors: Marques-Pinto André , Machado Ana Sofia , Dias-Amaral Ana 
Published: June 2023

ABSTRACT
The association between drugs of abuse and sexual function is thought to be prehistoric. In our era, science has shed some light on the roles of different neurotransmitters on sexual function.

Objective:
This systematic review aims to summarize the role of drugs of abuse on human sexuality.

Methods:
A systematic review was undertaken, according to PRISMA guidelines, for PubMed indexed English articles between 2008 and 2020.

Results:
The use of addictive substances is associated with poorer relationship functioning. Additionally, they can be both a trigger and a maintaining factor for sexual dysfunction by affecting any or all phases of sexual response models. These substances include alcohol, tobacco, cannabis, opioids, cocaine, amphetamines, and party drugs. Failure to address drug-induced sexual problems and dysfunctions or their treatment may induce relapses or represent the loss of a precious therapeutic opportunity.

Conclusion:
Health care providers should be aware of the relationship between drugs of abuse and sexual function, and use the permission, limited information, specific suggestions, intensive therapy model. We believe addiction professionals should have skills on clinical sexology, and conversely, clinical sexologists should have training in addictions.

L’association faite entre les drogues illicites et le fonctionnement sexuel est perçu comme étant archaïque. De nos jours, la science a apportée une certaine lumière sur les rôles des différents neurotransmetteurs dans le fonctionnement sexuel.

Objectifs:
Cette revue systématique vise à résumer le rôle des drogues illicites sur la sexualité humaine.

Méthodes:
Une revue systématique a été entreprise, conformément aux directives PRISMA, pour les articles en anglais indexés PubMed entre 2008 et 2020.

Résultats:
La consommation de substances addictives est associée à un fonctionnement relationnel inférieur. De plus, ils peuvent être à la fois un déclencheur et un facteur de maintien de la dysfonction sexuelle en affectant une ou toutes les phases des modèles de réponse sexuelle. Ces substances comprennent l’alcool, le tabac, le cannabis, les opioïdes, la cocaïne, les amphétamines et les drogues festives (party drugs). Ne pas s’attaquer aux problèmes et dysfonctionnements sexuels induits par ces drogues ou à leur traitement peut provoquer des rechutes ou représenter la perte d’une précieuse opportunité thérapeutique.

Conclusions:
Les pourvoyeurs de soins de santé devraient être conscients de la relation entre les drogues et le fonctionnement sexuel, et utiliser le modèle PLISSIT. Nous pensons que les professionnels de l’addiction devraient avoir des compétences en sexologie clinique et, à l’inverse, les sexologues cliniciens devraient avoir une formation en addiction.
Risks of Recidivism in Criminally Involved Persons With Addiction at Risk of Deportation: A Case Commentary and Review
Authors: Jadir Deeshpaul Singh , Gill Harbir Singh 
Published: June 2023

ABSTRACT
A clinical case is presented for a patient in sustained remission from opioid use disorder following 12 months of evidence-based treatment who faces deportation due to criminal behavior conducted whilst in active and untreated addiction. A review of the criminal justice and addiction literature suggests that the chance of relapse and recidivism to criminal behavior is low when engaged in evidence-based addiction treatment for over 12 months. Deportation has been shown to disrupt recovery activity and increase recidivism and relapse risk. As addiction is widely now understood to be a disease based in neurobiology, and treatable, we believe that the evidence supports our assertion of deportation as a cruel and unjust treatment of a chronic disease.

La présentation du cas clinique d’un patient en rémission prolongée causé par un trouble lié à l’usage d’opioïdes. Après 12 mois de traitement fondé sur des données probantes, le patient risque l’expulsion en raison d’un comportement criminel mené alors qu’il était dans une dépendance active et non traitée. Une revue de la justice pénale et de la littérature sur l’addiction suggère que le risque de rechute et de récidive au comportement criminel est faible lorsque le patient est engagé dans un traitement de l’addiction fondé sur des données probantes pendant plus de 12 mois. Il a été démontré que l’expulsion perturbe les activités de rétablissement et augmente les risques de récidive et de rechute. Comme l’addiction est désormais largement comprise comme une maladie basée sur la neurobiologie et traitable, nous pensons que la preuve étaye notre affirmation selon laquelle l’expulsion est un traitement cruel et injuste d’une maladie chronique.

SummaryHow the coordination of neuronal spiking activity and brain rhythms between hippocampal subregions supports memory function remains elusive. We studied interregional coordination of CA3 neuronal spiking activity with CA1 theta oscillations by recording electrophysiological signals along the proximodistal axis of the hippocampus in rats performing a high memory demand recognition memory task adapted from humans. We found that CA3 population spiking activity occurs preferentially at the peak of distal CA1 theta oscillations only when animals recalled previously encountered stimuli. In addition, decoding analyses revealed that only population cell firing of proximal CA3 together with that of distal CA1 can predict memory performance in the present non-spatial task. Overall, our work demonstrates an important role of the synchronization of CA3 neuronal activity with CA1 theta oscillations for successful recognition memory.

Published: June 2023

AbstractMany pathogens of humans and livestock also infect wildlife that can act as a reservoir and challenge disease control or elimination. Efficient and effective prioritization of research and management actions requires an understanding of the potential for new tools to improve elimination probability with feasible deployment strategies that can be implemented at scale. Wildlife vaccination is gaining interest as a tool for managing several wildlife diseases. To evaluate the effect of vaccinating white-tailed deer (Odocoileus virginianus), in combination with harvest, in reducing and eliminating bovine tuberculosis from deer populations in Michigan, we developed a mechanistic age-structured disease transmission model for bovine tuberculosis with integrated disease management. We evaluated the impact of pulse vaccination across a range of vaccine properties. Pulse vaccination was effective for reducing disease prevalence rapidly with even low (30%) to moderate (60%) vaccine coverage of the susceptible and exposed deer population and was further improved when combined with increased harvest. The impact of increased harvest depended on the relative strength of transmission modes, i.e., direct vs indirect transmission. Vaccine coverage and efficacy were the most important vaccine properties for reducing and eliminating disease from the local population. By fitting the model to the core endemic area of bovine tuberculosis in Michigan, USA, we identified feasible integrated management strategies involving vaccination and increased harvest that reduced disease prevalence in free-ranging deer. Few scenarios led to disease elimination due to the chronic nature of bovine tuberculosis. A long-term commitment to regular vaccination campaigns, and further research on increasing vaccines efficacy and uptake rate in free-ranging deer are important for disease management.
