ObjectiveSeveral studies highlighted childhood sexual experiences (CSEs) and intimate partner violence (IPV) as risk factors that affected lifetime suicidal ideation. TW had higher rates of CSEs and IPV than cisgender people. The aim of this study was to comprehensively assess the prevalence of CSEs and IPV among TW and their association with lifetime suicidal ideation.MethodsA cross-sectional survey was conducted among 247 TW in Shenyang and Kunming, China, from April to September 2018. CSEs, IPV, and lifetime suicidal ideation were assessed. Logistic regression models were used to examine the association between self-reported CSEs under 18 years of age, IPV in adulthood, and lifetime suicidal ideation.ResultsIn the study, 14.2% (35/247) of the sample participants reported CSEs under 18 years of age; 44.9% (111/247) reported experiencing IPV in adulthood, including 18.6% (44/247) of physical IPV, 27.1% (67/247) of trans-specific identity IPV, 31.6% (78/247) of verbal IPV, and 19.4% (48/247) of sexual IPV; and 26.3% (65/247) had thought about attempting suicide at least one time. CSEs and any form of IPV were significantly associated with suicidal ideation in this sample population. A final stepwise multivariate logistic regression model found that both physical and verbal IPVs were significantly associated with suicidal ideation when controlling for other factors (ORm1 = 2.58, 95% confidence interval (CI) = 1.163–5.724; ORm2 = 2.72, 95% CI = 1.334–5.547).ConclusionsThe findings highlight the effects of CSEs and IPV among TW and suggest the need for research on suicide in the future. Suicide prevention efforts for this invisible and vulnerable population should focus on those with physical and verbal IPV.

IntroductionA majority of low-income (LIC) and lower-middle-income countries (LMIC) were unable to achieve at least 10% population coverage during initial vaccine rollouts, despite the rapid development of the coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19) vaccines. Nearly three years into this pandemic, evaluating the impact of inequities in vaccine access, uptake, and availability is long overdue. We hypothesized that a delay in receiving COVID-19 vaccines was associated with an increased toll on cumulative cases and mortality. Furthermore, this relationship was modified by the size of a country's economy.MethodsWe performed an ecological study assessing these relationships, in which a country's economic standing was assessed by world bank income classification, gross domestic product based on the purchasing power parity (GDP PPP) per capita category, and crude GDP PPP.ResultsCountries with the smallest economies reported first vaccination much later than larger economies on all three rankings, as much as 100 days longer. Among low-income countries, a one-day increase until the first vaccination was associated with a 1.92% (95% CI: 0.100, 3.87) increase in cumulative cases when compared to high-income countries (p = 0.0395) when adjusting for population size, median age, and testing data availability. Similarly, among the lowest GDP PPP countries a one-day increase until the first vaccination was associated with a 2.73% (95% CI: 0.100, 5.44) increase in cumulative cases when compared to the highest GDP PPP countries (p = 0.0415). When modeling cumulative mortality, effects in the same direction and magnitude were observed, albeit statistically non-significant.ConclusionEconomic standing modified the effects of delayed access to COVID-19 vaccination on cumulative cases and mortality, in which LMICs tended to fare worse in outcomes than high-income countries despite the eventual rollout of vaccines. These findings highlight the importance of prioritizing equitable and timely access to COVID-19 vaccines across all countries, irrespective of economic size. Future studies should examine the impacts that vaccine inequities had on local transmission dynamics.

In the present study, we investigated the effects of cellulase and Lactiplantibacillus plantarum (L. plantarum) on the fermentation quality, microbial diversity, gene function prediction, and in vitro rumen fermentation parameters of the Caragana korshinskii (C. korshinskii) silage. The experimental treatment groups included control (CK), cellulase (C), L. plantarum (L), and cellulase + L. plantarum (CL). Triplicate silos were sampled after 14 and 56 days of ensiling. The microbial diversity of C. korshinskii silage at 56 days was analyzed using Illumina MiSeq sequencing technology, and the effects of C. korshinskii silage on rumen fermentation were evaluated by the in vitro artificial rumen gas production method. The results showed that the addition of cellulose and L. plantarum treatments reduced ammonia-nitrogen (NH3-N), dry matter (DM), neutral detergent fiber (NDF), and acid detergent fiber content during ensiling. Compared with the CK group, higher lactic acid content was observed in the silage of the C and L groups, but the CL group had a higher acetic acid (AA) content. Compared with the CK group, the relative abundance of Lactiplantibacillus significantly increased, but that of Enterococcus, Weissella, Enterobacter, and Pediococcus significantly decreased in all other groups except the C group (p &lt; 0.05). The results of gene function prediction were as follows: pyruvate kinase, 1-phosphofructokinase, and fructokinase were lactate production enzymes, which suggested the association of the high AA content in the CL group to the high abundance of 6-phosphate glucose dehydrogenase. The abundance of H + -transporting ATPase and ATP-binding cassette (ABC) transporters in the L and CL groups was higher than that in the CK groups. Metabolism of terpenoids and polyketides, mismatch repair, DNA replication, nucleotide excision repair, and homologous recombination increased in the CL group compared with those in the CK group. Compared with the CK group, NH3-N and microbial protein content and the degradation rates of DM and NDF increased in the L and CL groups. To conclude, the L and CL groups had increased Lactiplantibacillus abundance, improved fermentation quality, and high DM degradation rates compared with the CK group.

IntroductionThis study sought to ascertain the macro governing policies and factors that influence the integration of female accompanying spouses in the Free State, into the South African labor market.MethodsUtilizing a qualitative approach, thirteen one-on-one interviews, consisting of an initial purposive sample and a subsequent snowball sample, were conducted for data gathering. The study employed thematic analysis to interpret the data.ResultsThe findings revealed that governing policies emerging from South Africa's migration legislation, and factors such as spouse dependence, reinforcement of traditional gender roles, and restrictive employment legislation which forced deskilling of qualifications, mainly impacted the conduct of accompanying spouses concerning the labor market.DiscussionThis study contributes to the literature on labor market integration (LMI) from an underexplored South-to-South standpoint by delving into the experiences of skilled female migrants in the family migration setting. A neglected facet of Michel Foucault's governmentality theory was used to investigate the labor market assimilation needs of female accompanying spouses. The study's qualitative approach renders the findings much less generalizable than a quantitative inquiry. It is important to note that LMI research is considerably setting-specific, despite some aspects of this study being applicable to other settings in the Global South. South Africa continues to be a pivotal regional hub for migration in the Global South, yet it has a complex migration governance framework that sets up a specific, while broadly exclusionary, macro context for accompanying spouses. This study zones in on issues that could inform more effective family migration policy.

BackgroundEven though numerous factors contribute to undernutrition, it can happen immediately due to poor intake and illness. A minimum acceptable diet is one of the proxy measures for adequate consumption, which is an impact indicator for the Productive SafetyNet Program (PSNP). As a result, this study aimed to assess the impact of PSNP on the minimum acceptable diet among rural infants in the South Gondar Zone, Northwest Ethiopia.MethodsA community-based cross-sectional study design was employed in the selected woredas (districts) of South Gondar Zone, Northwest Ethiopia, from 1 December 2017 to 30 January 2017. A total of 442 participants' data were collected during this time period through interviews with their mothers or caregivers. A multistage sampling technique was employed to select study subjects and interviewees using a structured questionnaire. Stata version 16 (MP) was employed to carry out a statistical analysis. A binary logistic regression model was employed to identify significant variables. The statistical significance was declared at a p-value of more than 0.05.ResultsThe highest proportion of adequate diet diversity scores (261 [59.05%]) was from households who graduated (not part of it) from PSNPs. In this study, the magnitude of adequate dietary diversity, meal frequency, and minimum acceptable diet was 79.86, 82.58, and 66.52%, respectively. Marital status (AOR = 3.98, 95% CI: 1.39, 11.40), child age (AOR = 2.82, 95% CI: 1.78, 4.47), the educational status of the father (AOR = 0.56, 95% CI: 0.35, 0.89), the wealth index (AOR = 0.27, 95% CI: 0.12, 0.64), and the place of delivery (AOR = 3.14, 95% CI: 1.47, 6.73) were significant predictors for minimum acceptable diet uptake by children.ConclusionIn this study, two-thirds of the infants had/received a minimum acceptable diet. Furthermore, infants from households with Productive SafetyNet users had a low minimum acceptable diet. Marital status, the educational status of the father, child age, the wealth index, and the place of delivery were associated factors with having an adequate intake of minimum acceptable diet by the children. Therefore, efforts to address sociodemographic and child-related factors during routine care are crucial.

ObjectivesTo evaluate the safety of intravesical application of resiniferatoxin (RTX) in healthy cats and its effects on calcitonin gene-related peptide (CGRP) and substance P (SP) produced by C-fibers.MethodsSeven adult female cats received either 25 mL of saline (control; n = 1), or intravesical RTX at 5, 25, or 50 μg in 25 mL of saline to a final concentration of 0.2 μg/mL (318 nM), 1 μg/mL (1,591 nM), and 2 μg/mL (3,181 nM) (n = 2 per group). The treatment was instilled into the urinary bladder for 20 min. Plasma concentrations of RTX were measured at 0, 0.5, 1, and 4 h. Physical exam, complete blood count, and serum biochemical analysis were performed on day 0, 7, and 14. After 14 days, the sacral dorsal root ganglia (DRG) and the urinary bladder were harvested for histological and immunofluorescence analysis.ResultsIntravesical RTX was well tolerated and plasma concentrations were below the quantifiable limits except for one cat receiving 1 μg/mL. Mild to moderate histopathological changes, including epithelial changes, edema, and blood vessel proliferation, were observed at lower doses (0.2 and 1 μg/mL), and were more severe at the higher dose (2 μg/mL). C-fiber ablation was observed in the urinary bladder tissue at all doses, as shown by an apparent reduction of both CGRP and SP immunoreactive axons.ConclusionA dose of 25 μg (1 μg/mL) of RTX instilled in the urinary bladder of healthy cats appeared to decrease the density of SP and CGRP nerve axons innervating bladder and induced moderate changes in the bladder tissue.

La carga de trabajo constituye una serie de obligaciones y exigencias afectivas, físicas y mentales. El objetivo fue evaluar la sobrecarga laboral de los enfermeros de las unidades de cuidados intensivos en los Hospitales Generales de Portoviejo y Manta. Ecuador desde Febrero 2018 a Febrero 2021, mediante una investigación descriptiva, transversal, correlacional, no experimental. En 70 enfermeros, con los cuestionarios de variables sociodemográficas laborales y NAS para sobrecarga laboral, predominaron la edad de 35,7 años, las mujeres 91,4% y la instrucción superior universitaria; 95,7%, los turnos rotativos mensuales 19% y la antigüedad laboral de 1-19 años 81,4 %. En los turnos matutino (62,9%) y vespertino (80%) predomina una sobrecarga media; y en la noche sobrecarga alta (100%). La sobrecarga fue menor en el turno matutino y mayor en el nocturno (96,24± 25,6), (141,7±10,8) p < 0,05 95%; hubo (p: 0,00) entre los turnos: nocturno y el matutino; y nocturno y vespertino. Los mayores puntajes de sobrecarga NAS estuvieron en la noche, exceptuando movilización y cambios posicionales que disminuyo (21,20±15,0) y el cuidado y apoyo al paciente y familiares con puntaje mayor que en el resto (21,02±15,2). En conclusión, hubo sobrecarga laboral en todos los turnos, prevaleciendo en el nocturno.
The Quest for Wholeness
Authors: Ferch Shann Ray 
Published: January 2023

The articles in this volume of the IJSL, like the articles we’ve been honored to publish throughout the journal’s history, are bold, transgressive, and aimed at decentralizing dominant-culture narratives. As people, Shann Ray Ferch, IJSL editor-in-chief, believes that we are specific and universal, beautiful, tragic, met with fracture, met with fusion, triumphant, graceful, traumatized, deeply harmed, lovely, and graceful. The collective presence of the articles published in this volume are guided by similar beliefs, addressing the call given by Seattle writer and National Book Award winner Charles Johnson (Middle Passage) who asks, “How do we portray the racial, cultural, gender, and class Other? It’s very important that we make this attempt given our goal of truly becoming a multicultural society.”
Le Sud-Ouest européen : coopérations interrégionales et stratégies d'aménagement.

El suroeste europeo : cooperaciones interregionales y estrategias de ordenación.
La puesta en aplicación del programa INTERREG II C dentro del espacio denominado «Suroeste europeo, diagonal continental », la elaboración proseguida del Esquema de Desarrollo del Espacio Comunitario y las últimas negociaciones de los programas de la política regional europea fueron los hitos de la instauración de nuevas modalidades de intervención territorial. La designación de los respectivos actores muestra como las diferencias en las estrategias que se aplican a distintas escalas territoriales expresan la diversidad de representación de estos territorios y su implicación resultante en los debates sobre la interregionalidad. El rechazo aparente de los grandes reagrupamientos territoriales va suavizándose en cuanto se imponen nuevas representaciones : la Diagonal continental como medio de conservación de los intereses creados, la interregionalidad como paliativo al aislamiento y medio para el desenclave. Sin embargo el debate sobre la cooperación interregional lleva rápidamente a la identificación de las peculiaridades del territorio y participa del ahondamiento de la argumentación de la legitimidad regional.

Granulomatose Eosinofílica com Poliangeíte (GEPA) é uma vasculite rara com prevalência geral de 10,7% a 13%. Acomete preferencialmente pacientes com média de idade de 48 anos. O diagnóstico é feito através dos critérios classificatórios revisados pelo Colégio Americano de Reumatologia em 1990, em que é necessário a presença de 4 dos 6 critérios estabelecidos. A GEPA é uma doença rara, de diagnóstico habitualmente difícil, pois se confunde com muitas patologias que geram sintomas semelhantes. Deve-se suspeitar de tal patologia sempre que o paciente apresentar asma de difícil controle, associado a eosinofilia e neuropatia periférica. O objetivo desse estudo é relatar o caso clínico de um paciente com GEPA. Os dados foram coletados através da análise de prontuário. No caso em questão, o paciente apresentava 4 dos 6 critérios exigidos, além de um critério ameaçador a vida, justificando o tratamento com corticoide e ciclofosfamida.

Na China, em dezembro de 2019, foram relatados os primeiros casos da patologia respiratória COVID-19, doença causado pelo SARS-CoV-2, um RNA vírus. A propagação foi veloz e global, de maneira que a Organização Mundial de Saúde definiu como pandemia em março de 2020. A doença tem manifestação clínica variada, com enfermos assintomáticos ou manifestando quadro crítico, apresentando alta transmissibilidade e letalidade considerável. Simultaneamente, indivíduos com indicação cirúrgica, de origem traumática ou não, tiveram seus atendimentos eletivos paralisados e houve queda nos índices de intervenções de cunho emergencista, tanto devido o medo do indivíduo procurar um serviço de saúde e ser contaminado pelo coronavírus, quanto por outros fatores. Essa revisão teve como objetivo averiguar como a pandemia acometeu serviços de cirurgia geral de emergência, bem como elucidar os preditores e fatores que ocasionaram mudanças no manejo e intervenções cirúrgicas durante o surto de SARS-CoV-2.
