Actors, Actions, and Outcomes
Authors: Blum Stephen 
Published: May 2023

Abstract
Exploration of how people attempt to understand actions and results of musicking is a major contribution of ethnomusicologists toward development of music theory as a general discipline. Music theorists will not be able to identify universals of human musicality without concerted efforts at overcoming the cultural biases strengthened by colonialism and imperialism (including the “internal colonialism” of the United States) through sustained attention to local practices that remain unstudied or poorly interpreted. Multimedia ethnography, and research on music cognition conducted with culturally diverse subjects, should yield insights that so far have eluded us. Among the topics of considerable significance in cross-cultural studies are multipart music making, dialogic exchange, ritual and ceremony, and how creative processes are represented (and misrepresented). Studies of how music is now produced in much of the world are increasingly concerned with numerous interactions of participants with one another and with technologies.
The Lure of the Russian Revolution
Authors: Kolb-Neuhaus Roberto 
Published: May 2023

Abstract
In the 1920s, composers such as Honegger in France, Antheil and Carpenter in the United States, and Prokofiev and Shostakovich in Russia wrote “machinist” works as futuristic symbols of progress. But musical machinism is semantically ambiguous: “progress” is variously defined, depending on the associated ideology. The Russians put the symbol in the service of their Revolution, and this idea influenced the Mexican Stridentist Germán List Arzubide, who used the image of a robot to create a hero character for didactic children’s tales. “Troka” was then used by Revueltas to compose a “danceable children’s pantomime” celebrating the death of imperialism as achieved by the gigantic robot and his young followers. Musical machinism is used here to celebrate this triumph. Earlier on, Carlos Chávez had composed the H.P. ballet, in which machinism seems to represent not progress but capitalist decay. In works such as his Energía, however, his machinism does seem to respond to a progressive futuristic agenda. This chapter tells the story of the making (and unmaking) of Troka—it did not make it to a premiere—comparing it with Chávez’s various appropriations of the symbol, representing at first a common political agenda between Chávez and Revueltas, but thereafter a growing distance.
Janitzio (1933/1936)
Authors: Kolb-Neuhaus Roberto 
Published: May 2023

Abstract
If one score, in particular, has been historicized as a prominent example of Revueltas’ presumed Mexicanist nationalism, it is his symphonic poem Janitzio, named after the tourist attraction, already popular at the time, in the state of Michoacán. The composer, however, accompanied the premiere with a description that satirically undermines this reception, describing the lake surrounding the touristy island as “ugly” and ironically describing his contribution as a further example of “postcard” music in an effort to “promote tourism.” Irony and satire are, in fact, also present in the music from the outstart: an intentionally clumsy pastiche accumulation of folkloric music referents is sabotaged through distortions of each referent. Nationalist “postcard” music is further undermined through Revueltas’ usual means: an aggressive, metrically, and harmonically incongruent juxtaposition of musicalized street insults, foregrounding the voice of the non-picturesque Lumpenproletariat. As also typical in Revueltas’ early works, the angry anti-nationalist stance is counteracted by slow movements lacking satirical intent and seeking ways to embody the voice of the oppressed through deeply moving polyphonic constructs drawn from the soundscape of the streets. Here it is a “Lento espressivo (molto sostenuto e cantabile)” that articulates a highly expressive counterpoint of two melodies created by Revueltas, which both freely recall pregón (street cry) gestures, rather than folkloric referents.
Nostalgia of the Future
Authors: Kolb-Neuhaus Roberto 
Published: May 2023

Abstract
Based on the poem by Cuban poet Nicolás Guillén, Sensemayá: Canto parar matar una culebra (Song for the Killing of a Snake, first composed for small orchestra 1937 and reorchestrated for symphony orchestra in 1938), Revueltas’ work by the same title embodies his desire to express political passion through music alone, setting aside the poetic word to communicate its message. Although the music is strongly associated with Guillén’s verses, they are not included in the score. It is not so much the communication of the verbally expressed imagery that concerns Revueltas, but the sounding of feelings associated with it. His choice of poem is significant for various reasons. Although drawn from a strongly political collection of Guillén’s poetry, West Indies, Ltd. in particular expresses its possible political intent in a non-programmatic, poetic way. The Cuban’s negrista poetry was also attractive for Revueltas because it is itself strongly inspired by musical language. Coauthored with Susana González-Aktories, this chapter queries first the musical identity in Guillén’s poetry, and then, in the case of “Sensemayá,” its “transition back to music,” and its possible interpretation as a musical allegory of liberation.
Aberrant Reception Yesterday
Authors: Kolb-Neuhaus Roberto 
Published: May 2023

Abstract
Judging by the music chronicler’s reactions at the time, it quickly becomes evident that Revueltas’ attempts at building an alternative soundscape, one not concerned with cultural but with social-political identity, went completely unnoticed both at home and abroad. Or even worse, that his music was taken to represent something that it manifestly targeted: a Mexicanistic agenda. Regarding his musical aesthetics, his struggle against dependence on Eurocentric models by attempting to articulate a kind of politically grounded peripheral ontology by musically echoing visual and poetic avant-garde techniques mainly built on montage and collage was never seen in this light. Rather, the free and daring assemblages were qualified, both locally and among his US critics, as immature, or in the best of cases (mis)interpreted as primitive or exotic. This chapter explores the reception of Revueltas’ music in Mexico (Salomón Kahan, Hugo Conzatti) and among US composers and conductors (Nicolas Slonimsky, Aaron Copland, Virgil Thomson, Henry Cowell, Paul Bowles) as well as, in some cases, the Mexican’s mostly ironic or humorous reactions to it. It also speculates about a potential kinship with the ideology and music of certain US composers such as Alex North and George Antheil. Revueltas established a personal friendship with the former, but there is no evidence of this in the composer’s archive in the form of letters. Antheil is never mentioned by the Mexican, and there is no way to corroborate if he was aware of the daring early avant-garde work of the American.
An Eighteenth-Century Satirist
Authors: Molteno Marion 
Published: May 2023

Abstract
The poet Sauda features in Russell’s well-known book Three Mughal Poets. This article appeared separately before the book’s publication and introduces readers to his work and attitudes, through extensive examples. It gives insight into the role of a satirist at a time when the Mughal Empire was in catastrophic decline. Poets depended on patronage from the wealthy noble class, but despite this Sauda exercised considerable independence in expressing his views. The translations from his poems include attacks on incompetent self-seekers who controlled the empire; their extravagance; gluttony; meanness; the self-appointed censors of others’ morals; an exploitative hakim (practitioner of a traditional system of medicine). These poems reflect the fact that a certain licence was conventionally allowed to poets. Other poems reflect his deep despair at the fate of Delhi, his native city.
How Not to Write the History of Urdu Literature
Authors: Molteno Marion 
Published: May 2023

Abstract
Russell discusses the limitations of the histories of Urdu literature by Ram Babu Saksena (1927) and T Graeme Bailey (1932) (the only ones available when he was a student) and later by Muhammad Sadiq (1965). They talk of the ‘limitations’ of Urdu poetry, comparing it and other genres unfavourably to English or classical European models, rather than considering it on its own terms. He gives many examples of this from all three writers. He gives as a particular example their description of the marsiya. They describe what they consider its limitations, without giving any sense of the power a marsiya has over listeners within that culture. His guidance for would-be historians of literature is to only embark on it if you feel enthusiastic about the literature, then to consider what readers from another culture need to have explained to them so that they can enter into it.
Unravelling the Bacterial Community Composition of Valerianella locusta, A Cold-Tolerant Plant
Authors: Garcia Mendez Sonia , Persyn Antoine , De Tender Caroline , Goormachtig Sofie , Willems Anne 
Published: May 2023

Low temperatures greatly affect plant growth. In addition to the development of its own protection mechanisms, plants may rely on microorganisms to help them cope with cold. Because Valerianella locusta (lamb's lettuce) is a cold-adapted plant, it represents an interesting plant to understand how cold affects the root bacteriome. By means of amplicon sequencing of 16S ribosomal RNA genes, we identified the taxa forming the main cold root bacteriome of lamb's lettuce. The analysis of the root microbiome of a naturally growing V. locusta population and the study of the changes in the root microbiome of cultivated V. locusta grown under cold and ambient conditions allowed us to detect four cold-responsive families, of which Oxalobacteraceae presented the strongest shift under chilling temperatures. Moreover, the plant genotype had a small but significant effect on the response of the root bacteriome to cold. Finally, several bacterial candidates were discovered that may possibly alleviate the effect of low temperatures on plant fitness; namely, Massilia ASV2, Flavobacterium ASV5 and ASV11, or Acidovorax ASV20. However, currently, only 10 cold-enriched isolates could be obtained in cultivation, of which Flavobacterium R-83141; Polaromonas R-83176, R-83177, and R-83175; and Acidovorax R-83129 were able to increase either the root, shoot, or total fresh weight of a cold-sensitive ecotype of Arabidopsis thaliana (Cvi-0). Our results provide an overview of the taxa forming the root microbiome of this species and of the compositional shift that occurs under cold temperature treatment, demonstrating the impact of low temperatures on the composition of the root microbiome.

Medical Mistrust Among Pregnant Women During the COVID-19 Pandemic [ID: 1376909]
Authors: Wang Runzhi , Coleman Jenell , Izadi Lillee , Sao Saumya 
Published: May 2023

INTRODUCTION:
Medical mistrust has exacerbated health care inequities, especially amidst the COVID-19 pandemic. We sought to assess the effect of the COVID-19 pandemic on medical mistrust among pregnant women, including attitudes toward vaccines.

METHODS:
An electronic survey was distributed among pregnant women aged 15–45 who were engaged in prenatal care at a medical institution in Baltimore, Maryland. Medical mistrust was evaluated by a validated survey using a five-item scale with a higher score indicating more mistrust. Another three questions assessed the effect of the COVID-19 pandemic on attitudes toward health care workers. Multiple linear regression models were used to compare scores by sociodemographic characteristics.

RESULTS:
Of 303 pregnant participants, the mean age was 31.4±6.2 years. The mean medical mistrust scale score was 1.67 (SD 0.76), range 1.0–4.2 (median 1.4). Higher scores were reported among self-identified Black/African-American participants compared to White/Caucasian (difference 0.55, 95% CI 0.31–0.80) and among participants with a history of illicit drug use (difference 0.23, 95% CI 0.01–0.45). 24.4% of participants reported they trusted health care providers less after the pandemic, and 13.6% became more suspicious of information they received from health care providers. Black/African American pregnant participants were more likely to agree that the pandemic increased medical mistrust than White/Caucasian pregnant participants (P<.05). Over 46% of pregnant participants reported the pandemic made them more aware of vaccines, and less than 17% became more hesitant.

CONCLUSION:
Nearly a quarter of participants trusted health care providers less after the COVID-19 pandemic. Black/African American pregnant women and those with a history of drug use have greater medical mistrust than White/Caucasian women.
The HPV at the Abortion Visit: The Utility of Video Education [ID: 1377357]
Authors: McLaren Hillary , Farley Brianna 
Published: May 2023

INTRODUCTION:
The human papillomavirus (HPV) vaccine is an important component of comprehensive sexual and reproductive health care and has the potential to completely eradicate cervical cancer. However, many women make it to adulthood without receiving a single vaccine. The abortion visit is an important health care access point for high-risk, unvaccinated individuals.

METHODS:
Patients (N=20) were recruited from the waiting room at a Chicago Planned Parenthood. Phase 1 included participants completing a 29-question assessment on HPV knowledge, HPV testing, and HPV vaccination. Phase 2 consisted of a randomized control trial of English-speaking patients, aged 18–26, presenting for a medication abortion (N=50). Primary outcome was uptake of vaccine; secondary was HPV knowledge via the same knowledge assessment tool used in phase 1. Patients were randomized to the interventional video or “usual care.” All patients were offered an HPV vaccine during medication abortion counseling.

RESULTS:
Knowledge scores significantly improved from preintervention (0.68 [±0.06]) to postintervention (0.77±0.05) (P=.03). Patients from the video intervention group demonstrated higher vaccine uptake (16%) compared to the “usual-care” group (0%) (P=.04). HPV knowledge assessment was significantly different between arms, with usual-care patients scoring 60% versus video intervention patients at 72%.

CONCLUSION:
There was significant improvement in knowledge assessment scores and vaccine uptake among the video intervention group. Video education is an effective tool in increasing HPV knowledge and uptake.
Physician Characteristics Associated With Bias in Contraceptive Recommendations [ID: 1349236]
Authors: DiCenzo Natalie , Brandi Kristyn , Getz Kylie , Matthews Glenmarie 
Published: May 2023

INTRODUCTION:
We sought to determine the effect of obstetrician–gynecologist characteristics on contraceptive recommendations for patients of various racial and socioeconomic backgrounds.

METHODS:
U.S. obstetrician–gynecologists were administered an online survey depicting photographic scenarios of reproductive-aged women of differing races (White, Black, Latina, Asian) and described socioeconomic status (SES) (high versus low), with all other factors identical, and asked to provide contraceptive recommendations. We used logistic regression to analyze recommendation differences based on physician and patient characteristics. Institutional review board approval was obtained.

RESULTS:
One hundred thirty-five total respondents were included: 55% attending physicians, 45% trainees (residents/fellows); 73% White, 27% non-White. Among all patients: Non-White physicians had significantly lower odds of recommending tubal (odds ratio [OR] 0.493), vaginal ring (OR 0.401), and patch (OR 0.513) compared to White physicians. Non-White physicians had significantly higher odds of recommending any long-acting reversible contraception (LARC) (OR 1.846) and condoms (OR 1.438) compared to White physicians. Trainees had significantly lower odds of recommending tubal (OR 0.632), condoms (OR 0.595), pills (OR 0.428), vaginal ring (OR 0.326), and patch (OR 0.536) compared to attendings. Trainees had significantly higher odds of recommending any LARC (OR 18.374) and medroxyprogesterone injection (OR 1.797) compared to attendings. All physicians had a significantly lower odds of recommending any self-administered contraceptive method to Black high-SES patients compared to White high-SES patients (OR 0.418). Other variations were noted but did not reach statistical significance.

CONCLUSION:
In our study, contraceptive recommendations differed by race and training level of the recommending physician and by patients' perceived race and SES. This suggests that physician bias contributes to contraceptive recommendations.
Introducing Men to Digital Birth Control [ID: 1372011]
Authors: Acuna Juan , Armbruster Magda , Scherwitzl Elina Berglund , Gemzell-Danielsson Kristina , Gemzell-Danielsson Kristina , Pearson Jack , Scherwitzl Raoul 
Published: May 2023

INTRODUCTION:
As women increasingly take charge of their reproductive health through knowledge and thus informed contraceptive choice, some would like to share this responsibility with their male partners. Digital U.S. Food and Drug Administration-cleared birth control is now on the birth control market where a user inputs basal body temperature into an app and a daily fertility status is calculated by an algorithm.

METHODS:
In July 2022, a partner mode of the app was launched to all active users. Partner mode can be revoked at any time. We summarize metrics and feedback collected on the feature gaining valuable insights into how involving a partner in birth control can alter the overall experience.

RESULTS:
All active users have been informed about the new feature through an in-app message. A substantial fraction of them have enabled the partner view and sent invites to their partners, resulting in around 13,000 partners being active in the app on a monthly basis. Fifty-five percent of partners have enabled push notifications within their app, opting to receive these as insights into their partners' cycle. Eighty-five percent of users like the partner mode and 99% of those that use it said that they would continue to do so. Eighty-eight percent of users said that partner mode had enabled them to talk about their cycle and fertility journey with their partner.

CONCLUSION:
Partners found knowing where the user was in their cycle, daily fertility status, and period predictions the most valuable information presented to them in partner mode. Introducing men to digital birth control appears to be well received by both partners and users. It has the potential to broaden partners' understanding of female reproductive health and share the responsibility of preventing pregnancy.
Cancellation of Postpartum Tubal Ligations During COVID-19 and Alternative Contraceptive Methods in Women With Public Insurance: A 2-Year Update [ID: 1373829]
Authors: Park Selena , Elwood Adam , Matthews Glenmarie , Sauer Mark 
Published: May 2023

INTRODUCTION:
During the COVID-19 pandemic, postpartum bilateral tubal ligations (ppBTLs) were deemed “elective” and cancelled from March through June 2020. For patients with public insurance, the postpartum represents a brief interval in which contraception is covered and access to surgery is readily available.

METHODS:
We reviewed publicly insured patients who consented for ppBTLs after vaginal deliveries at our institution from March to June 2020 in whom procedures were cancelled. We analyzed alternative contraception chosen at discharge and up to 6 months postpartum. Two years later, we reviewed the same patients to evaluate contraceptive practice and pregnancy outcomes.

RESULTS:
After 275 vaginal deliveries, 25 ppBTLs were cancelled. Subsequently, 12 (48%) women were discharged without contraception. Seven (28%) and 14 (56%) women were not using contraception 6 weeks and 6 months postpartum, respectively. Two years later, six (24%) women returned pregnant; three without contraception, one using oral contraceptive pills, one using condoms, and one with a perforated intrauterine device (IUD). Two are currently pregnant and one underwent abortion with IUD placement. Three experienced uncomplicated vaginal deliveries, after which two received ppBTLs and one did not return for follow-up.

CONCLUSION:
As a result of pandemic policy, many women were unable to access ppBTLs and failed alternative means of contraception. As a result, nearly one-quarter of these patients became pregnant. Obstetrician–gynecologists should ensure that contraception counseling and pregnancy intention are addressed at each prenatal appointment. Physicians must also lobby for an expansion of postpartum insurance coverage and better advocate for services that provide women reproductive autonomy.
Long-Acting Reversible Contraception Continuation After Management of a Malpositioned Intrauterine Device [ID: 1376021]
Authors: Young Riley , Fadadu Priyal , Green Isabel , Yang Catherine 
Published: May 2023

INTRODUCTION:
Studies have investigated risk factors for intrauterine device (IUD) malposition, but there is a paucity of data regarding patients’ contraceptive decisions after experiencing a malpositioned IUD. Therefore, we sought to investigate continued long-acting reversible contraception (LARC) usage after management of a malpositioned IUD.

METHODS:
After IRB approval, a retrospective cohort study was conducted, which included 541 patients who underwent IUD insertion at one institution with subsequent pelvic imaging. One hundred six had a malpositioned IUD and were age-matched to controls. Chart and imaging reports were abstracted. Long-acting reversible contraception retention was documented through 24 months from index imaging.

RESULTS:
Most patients had a levonorgestrel IUD (90.9%) for the indication of contraception alone (54.1%). The imaging indication of abnormal uterine bleeding (AUB) was most likely to be associated with malposition (odds ratio [OR] 1.67 [1.03–2.71], P=.038), as well as a copper IUD type (OR 5.31 [2.14–13.18], P<.001). Most patients with a malpositioned IUD did not have an IUD replaced after removal (57.8%). Of those who abandoned IUD therapy, only six chose to initiate an alternative LARC. Malposition was not an independent risk factor for LARC abandonment between the two groups over the 24 months of follow-up. Risk factors for abandonment over the follow-up period included AUB, copper IUD use, younger age, and shorter duration of use before undergoing imaging.

CONCLUSION:
Most patients with a malpositioned IUD did not have IUD replacement and abandoned all LARC therapy. These are important preliminary findings regarding LARC abandonment associated with IUD malposition that will help shape further studies as well as clinical counseling.
