Authors: Teasdale Scott B. , Tripodi Elise , Harman Alexandra , Plain Janice , Burrows Tracy L. 
Published: July 2023

AbstractBackgroundMental health is a rapidly evolving area of practice for dietitians. The role of dietitians in supporting the physical health of consumers experiencing mental illness is becoming more widely recognised given the importance of lifestyle interventions for physical health. The present study aimed to explore the dietitian role in mental health services as well as identify barriers and enablers to service delivery.MethodsThis was a cross‐sectional survey of dietitians currently employed in any capacity in public and private mental health services. An online survey comprised of questions pertaining to four domains, including demographics, role and service provision, experience and supervision, barriers/challenges and drivers/enablers was completed and included closed and open‐ended responses.ResultsIn total, 48 responses were included. The mean ± SD age of respondents was 36.1 ± 10.9 years (range 23–67 years) with the majority working in inpatient settings. The top three tasks respondents reported conducting were individual consultations (n = 47; 98%), group programs (n = 23; 48%) and multidisciplinary team meetings. Barriers included a lack of awareness from others regarding a dietitian's role in mental health, and a lack of specific tools for nutrition screening. More training, resources and increased evidence base to guide practice would enable better service provision.ConclusionsThe present study provides insights regarding the possible drivers and barriers to effective service provision for dietitians working in mental health services focusing on the local contexts of respondents. The findings highlight the importance and value of working collaboratively within a multidisciplinary team.
Examining legislation and trends in healthcare pricing: A research agenda for consumer well‐being
Authors: Popovich Deidre , Frias Kellilynn M. 
Published: July 2023

AbstractHealthcare costs continue to rise considerably in the United States; one proposed solution is to give consumers more choices regarding their healthcare decisions. Recent legislation has the aim of making healthcare pricing more transparent and providing consumers with an increased understanding of costs. This article offers a research agenda for studying healthcare price transparency and provides an overview of several potential implications for consumers. The authors review the recent legislation and its intended impact on consumer shopping in the healthcare market. Research propositions are focused on healthcare as a unique decision context, the power and peril of price information, the emerging healthcare information market, and individual differences in consumers. The authors also illustrate some of these issues with a price transparency dataset. Opportunities for future research and implications for marketing, healthcare providers, and policymakers are offered.

Published: July 2023

AbstractAimThe study aim was to evaluate the feasibility and efficacy of a digital App developed to enhance patient communication with nurses during bedside nursing handover at shift change.MethodsSix nurses and 11 patient actors/volunteers participated in 12 simulated nursing handovers across six simulation workshops. Over half the patients were aged 70+ years (55%); majority were female (82%). Handover video recordings were analysed using a structured observation tool and a revised Four Habits Coding Scheme to assess nurses' handover communication skills. Patient and nurse feedback was also sought. The STROBE checklist (Data S1) guided preparation of the study.ResultsFor all simulated handovers (n = 12): Nurses greeted the patient at commencement; nurses made eye contact with the patient; patients were given opportunity to ask questions; and all patient questions were answered. Nurses explained the handover process for less than half the handovers (42%). Familiarity with the patient's history was evident in every handover. Communication behaviours identified in most handovers included: good nonverbal behaviour; allowing time for the patient to absorb information; giving clear explanations; involving the patient in decisions; and exploring acceptability of the care plan. Patient and nurse feedback on the App included: The App was easy to navigate, features were well‐liked, with some improvements suggested.ConclusionPatients and nurses provided positive feedback for the App during hospital stay and at handover. The App has the potential to enhance existing handover processes and increase safety of hospital care by using technology to educate and empower patients/carers to be active partners in communication with nurses during change‐of‐shift handover.Relevance to Clinical PracticeThe App empowers and enables patients/carers to actively participate in nursing handover and allows patients to communicate concerns and provide information to their nursing team, facilitating a new approach.Patient or Public ContributionPatients and carers were involved in the research from the original co‐design workshops that guided the development of the handover App. The research aims and outcome measures were informed by the experiences and preferences of patients/carers. Two patient representatives were involved in writing and submission of the grant application for the study to evaluate the efficacy of the App and were listed as co‐authors on this paper. Patient volunteers were involved in the current study to pilot test the handover App. Patient volunteers were recruited through a consumer representative and volunteer registry at the health service. They participated in simulated nursing handovers with two nurses to assess the feasibility and acceptability of the handover App and then provided feedback and suggestions for improvement.

AbstractAimFetal growth restriction (FGR) can lead to short‐term and long‐term impairments in the fetus. The placenta functions as an exchanger for substance transport, playing a critical role in fetal growth. However, the mechanism from the placental standpoint is still not fully understood. In this study, we aimed to investigate the pathophysiological mechanisms in the placenta that mediated the development of FGR and sex differences.MethodsWe analyzed the gene expression profiles of GSE100415 containing specific normotensive FGR placental samples and GSE114691 with canonical samples using three different methods, differentially expressed gene analysis, weighted gene co‐expression network analysis, and gene set enrichment analysis. Gene enrichment was performed, including the gene ontology and pathway from the Kyoto Encyclopedia of Genes and Genomes. The important process was then validated in pregnant Wistar rats subcutaneously administered dexamethasone (0.2 mg/kg/d) or saline from gestation Day 9 to 21.ResultsOur results revealed little difference between the comparison of normal and normotensive FGR placental samples but confirmed the sex difference. Further analyses of the canonical samples identified the occurrence of vascular dysfunction, which was validated by the calculation of the vascular lumen area, showing that the vascular lumen in the FGR group was more than in the control. We also discovered 17 significantly expressed genes from the involved eigengenes.ConclusionOur study provides an important theoretical and experimental basis to reevaluate the development of FGR from the placental standpoint and suggests a series of biomarkers for future clinical use.

Published: July 2023

AbstractCombining insights from the socioemotional wealth and institutional perspectives, we hypothesize that firms controlled by families offer greater job security to employees relative to non‐family firms, and this positive employment effect is amplified in riskier institutional environments around the world. Using an unbalanced panel of 3181 listed firms from 33 countries over a 10‐year period, we provide strong support for our hypotheses: family‐controlled firms on average are less likely to reduce their workforce compared to their non‐family counterparts, and this differential effect is magnified in weak institutional environments characterized by high political risk. These findings indicate that socioemotional wealth in family firms has a positive impact on employee welfare and that the use of a cross‐country design serves to bridge discrepancies or inconsistencies in single country studies that have been done in the past. From a practical perspective we conclude that the beneficial role of socioemotional wealth on employment relations is more evident when it is needed the most, namely under a dysfunctional institutional environment.
Increasing access to ephemeral prints: How to construct and analyze a dataset from the Golden Age of literature in nineteenth‐century Denmark
Authors: Berg Holger 
Published: July 2023

Abstract“Archives” and “distant reading” have become common concepts in literary criticism following the mass digitization of books and newspapers. Though these two sources provide gigantic amounts of data available in digitized collections and catalogues, they rarely encompass all printed texts preserved from any given period. A third type is mostly left out: ephemeral prints. This poses a problem for literary bibliographies. The major Danish collection holds 6 kilometers of rarely registered prints. The article shows how to catalogue and then analyze metadata from 825 printed songs circulating in what was then a major venue in the Danish public sphere: the Royal Copenhagen Shooting Association. Following Katherine Bode's proposals for writing data‐rich literary history, I first sum up collection policies in Scandinavian national libraries. The following questions are then examined: How did ephemera circulate inside the association and in the broader public? Which agents were involved in song‐production? How many of these occasional songs entered the authoritative Collected Works on which scholars often rely—and in which forms? Might political contexts explain fluctuations in the number of songs printed and the choice of foreign melodies? In most cases, the overview gained by quantitative analysis facilitates the subsequent closer, qualitative analysis.
Characterization of resistance to angular leaf spot of common bean (Phaseolus vulgaris L.) breeding line SPS50HB

Published: July 2023

AbstractThe common bean (Phaseolus vulgaris L.) makes an important contribution to the human diet, particularly in Africa and Latin America. Because angular leaf spot (ALS), caused by the fungal pathogen Pseudocercospora griseola, is one of the most severe foliar diseases of the bean plant, an important priority is to identify genes encoding resistance. The present study focused on the resistance shown by the Mesoamerican common bean breeding line SPS50HB. From the pattern of segregation for resistance displayed in an F2 population bred from a cross between SPS50HB and the ALS‐susceptible Ethiopian variety Red Wolaita, it was concluded that the resistance of SPS50HB is controlled by two unlinked dominant genes. An allelism test indicated that one of these genes was either identical with, allelic to, or closely linked to the major gene Phg‐2 carried by variety Mexico 54. The sequence‐characterized amplified region assays OPEO4 and PF13, which are diagnostic for an ALS resistance gene carried by the germplasm accession G10909, both tracked a possible second gene present in SPS50HB.
Cow and management factors and their association with estimates of uterine size and position at the time of insemination of dairy cattle
Authors: Palacín‐Chauri Roger J. , Garcia‐Ispierto Irina 
Published: July 2023

AbstractThis study examines factors affecting uterine size and position determined at 30–36 days postpartum in dairy cattle. The final study population consisted of 328 dairy cows, all calving during the warm season. Uterus position (pelvic, pelvic‐abdominal, abdominal) and uterus size (small, medium, large) was measured by ultrasound on Day 30–36 postpartum. Multiparous cows had a larger uterus positioned in the abdominal cavity (p = .03) and a male newborn was associated with a larger uterus (p = .022). The number of cows with the uterus in the abdominal cavity was higher among multiparous and high producer (p < .0001) cows. High producers were 0.41 times more likely to have a small uterus in a pelvic position. The most important finding of this study was that the delivery of a male dairy, rather than beef, calf was related to the least optimal maternal uterus size and position.

Published: July 2023

AbstractThis study was focused on the effects of ovary acquisition season, embryo transfer season, and conditions of surrogate sows on cloning efficiency, with the objective of improving the production of cloned pigs. The statistical analysis documented that cloning efficiency was highest when ovary extraction and embryo transfer occurred in the spring, and lowest when such operations occurred in the autumn. This was evidenced by the higher number of recovered oocytes (3.2 ± 0.47 vs. 2.5 ± 0.51), rate of mature oocytes (57.4 ± 0.07% vs. 48.9 ± 0.06%), rate of developed cloned blastocysts (35.7 ± 0.12% vs. 34.4 ± 0.07%), pregnancy rate of surrogate sows (73.5% vs. 33.3%), delivery rate (67.6% vs. 16.7%), litter size (6.9 ± 2.3 vs. 2.3 ± 2.5), and the number of alive newborns (5.7 ± 2.2 vs. 1.3 ± 1.2). Cloning efficiency was little affected by the ovulatory status of the surrogate sow prior to embryo transfer. The length of pregnancy, the parity, and the length of labor of the surrogate sow significantly affected the efficiency of generating pigs cloned from somatic cells. Specifically, when length of pregnancy ranged from 111 to 117 days, surrogate sows with shorter gestation period had larger litter size (8.9 ± 2.8) and a higher number of stillbirths per litter (2.1 ± 2.0). Moreover, statistical analysis indicated that selecting sows with 2–4 parities as surrogates led to increased litter size (7.7 ± 3.0) and the number of alive newborns (6.4 ± 3.1). In comparison with naturally breeding sows, the surrogate sows spent more time giving birth and suffered higher rates of stillbirth. The data obtained in this study provide valuable insights for improving the production efficiency of somatic cell cloned pigs.
Interpersonal facilitators of complicated grief and depression in the aftermath of suicide loss: The mediated roles of suicide‐related shame and guilt
Authors: Levi‐Belz Yossi 
Published: July 2023

AbstractBackgroundSuicide‐loss survivors (SLSs) are recognized as an at‐risk population for several mental health complications, including complicated grief (CG) and depression. Recent studies have emphasized the contribution of interpersonal factors as well as suicide‐related shame and guilt as facilitators of CG and depression among SLSs. In this 6 year longitudinal design study, we examined interpersonal variables as predictors of CG and depression, with suicide‐related guilt and shame as mediators.MethodParticipants were 152 SLSs aged 18–70 who completed questionnaires assessing thwarted belongingness, self‐disclosure, and social support at index measurement (T1); suicide‐related shame and guilt and CG and depression were assessed 6 years later (T2).ResultsThe integrated model revealed that the interpersonal factors of social support and self‐disclosure at T1 significantly and negatively predict CG and depression (respectively) at T2. Thwarted belongingness was found to significantly and positively predict both CG and depression through the mediation of suicide‐related shame levels.ConclusionThe findings highlight the critical role of interpersonal factors in facilitating CG and depression among SLSs. Theoretical implications relating to healing processes are discussed, as well as focused clinical recommendations, including psychoeducational interventions for addressing interpersonal difficulties and suicide‐related shame in the aftermath of suicide loss.
Sensory Ecology, Bioeconomy, and the Age of COVID: A Parallax View of Indigenous and Scientific Knowledge
Authors: Shepard Glenn H. , Daly Lewis 
Published: July 2023

AbstractDrawing on original ethnobotanical and anthropological research among Indigenous peoples across the Amazon, we examine synergies and dissonances between Indigenous and Western scientific knowledge about the environment, resource use, and sustainability. By focusing on the sensory dimension of Indigenous engagements with the environment—an approach we have described as “sensory ecology” and explored through the method of “phytoethnography”—we promote a symmetrical dialogue between Indigenous and scientific understandings around such phenomena as animal–plant mutualisms, phytochemical toxicity, sustainable forest management in “multinatural” landscapes, and the emergence of new diseases like the novel coronavirus SARS‐CoV‐2 (COVID‐19). Drawing examples from our own and other published works, we explore the possibilities and limitations of a “parallax view” attempting to hold Indigenous and scientific knowledge in focus simultaneously. As the concept of “bioeconomy” emerges as a key alternative for sustainable development of the Amazon, we encourage a critical and urgent engagement between dominant Western conceptions and Indigenous Amazonian knowledge, practices, and cultural values. Cognitive science, which has long contributed to studies of Indigenous categorization and conceptualization of the natural world, continues to play an important role in building bridges of mutual communication and respect between Indigenous and scientific approaches to sustainability and biodiversity conservation.
Radiographic and ultrasonographic appearance of a jejunal torsion‐volvulus in a dog

Published: July 2023

AbstractA 1.5‐year‐old male neutered, 5 kg, Dachshund was referred for anorexia and vomiting for several days’ duration. Radiographs revealed concern for a small intestinal obstruction. Ultrasonography revealed a severely distended segment of jejunum containing echogenic fluid that abruptly narrowed, twisted, and transitioned into normal jejunum, along with the presence of a distinct “whirl sign” that resulted from the intestinal segments twisting around themselves. This, in addition to the absence of flow on power Doppler interrogation, was compatible with a focal jejunal torsion‐volvulus. The torsion‐volvulus was surgically confirmed, a resection and anastomosis was performed, and the dog recovered uneventfully.
Simulating the Effect of Electric Bias Voltages on the Electrical Characteristics of Oxyfuel Preheat Flame Using Reduced Combustion Mechanism

Published: July 2023

Abstract
A three-dimensional computational model is presented in this paper that illustrates the detailed electrical characteristics, and the current–voltage (i–v) relationship throughout the preheating process of premixed methane-oxygen oxyfuel cutting flame subject to electric bias voltages. As such, the equations describing combustion, electrochemical transport for charged species, and potential are solved through a commercially available finite volume computational fluid dynamics (CFD) code. The reactions of the methane-oxygen (CH4–O2) flame were combined with a reduced mechanism, and additional ionization reactions that generate three chemi-ions, H3O+, HCO+, and e−, to describe the chemistry of ions in flames. The electrical characteristics such as ion migrations and ion distributions are investigated for a range of electric potential, V ∈ [−5 V, +5 V]. Since the physical flame is comprised of twelve Bunsen-like conical flames, inclusion of the third dimension imparts the resolution of fluid mechanics and the interaction among the individual cones. It was concluded that charged “sheaths” are formed at both torch and workpiece surfaces, subsequently forming three distinct regimes in the i–v relationship. The i–v characteristics obtained from this study have been compared to the previous experimental and two-dimensional computational model for premixed flame. In this way, the overall model generates a better understanding of the physical behavior of the oxyfuel-cutting flames, along with more validated i–v characteristics. Such understanding might provide critical information toward achieving an autonomous oxyfuel-cutting process.

The main objective of this study was to investigate genetic control for individual volume and genetic and phenotypic correlation between trait measured at two different ages. We also assessed three different selection intensities ( i = 1%, i = 5% and i = 10%) to understand the effects on genetic gain and effective size. Eight progeny tests were evaluated which included three tests of Corymbia citriodora subsp. citriodora (CCT), two tests of C. citriodora subsp. variegata (CCV), and three tests of C. torelliana (CTO). Narrow-sense heritability [Formula: see text] ranged from 0.26 to 0.62 for the CCT tests, from 0.07 to 0.21 for the CCV tests, and from 0.14 to 0.69 for CTO. The coefficients of individual genetic variation ([Formula: see text]) ranged from 22.5% to 63.9% for CCT, from 19.3% to 28.3% for CCV, and from 22.8% to 41.3% for CTO. Considering a selection intensity of 10%, the Neafter selection would range from 31 to 98 for CCT, 36 to 47 for CCV, and 45 to 62 for CTO. For the TP8 CTO test, a selection intensity greater than 10% is recommended. With a selection intensity of 10%, genetic gains ranged from 25 to 107% for CCT, from 14 to 27% for CCV, and from 19 to 64% for CTO.

We can calculate the expectation value of the stress-energy tensor by pulling it back onto the covering space. The average null energy becomes negative when the suitable boundary condition is chosen, resulting in a traversable wormhole.
