Published: March 2023

AbstractWicked problems are typically social justice and social change problems, complex and messy. They mobilize opposed views about the essential nature of the issues, their relative importance and adequate responses. We assert that illegal fishing in small‐scale fisheries (SSF) can be considered a wicked problem and our aim is to test this assertion. We relied on a conceptual framework that defines wicked problems as (1) indefinable and non‐generalizable, (2) ambiguously bounded, (3) temporally exacting, (4) repercussive, (5) doubly hermeneutic and (6) morally consequential. We applied a qualitative research approach based on field data comprising three illustrative Chilean SSF, whereas secondary data complemented the analysis. The results demonstrate that illegal fishing fits most of the requirements of a wicked policy problem. It is indefinable and non‐generalizable, with different representations and uncertainty about its nature, magnitude and effects. Depictions of the nature of the problem varied from a lack of regulations' legitimacy, to a ‘combat’ to be won. It is ambiguously bounded, caused by interrelated sub‐problems (e.g. poverty, access), involving multiple policy sectors, administrative scales and actors. It is also temporally exacting and repercussive as it lacks criteria to prove that a solution has been reached and the implications of alternative solutions (e.g. self‐regulation) are unknown. As long as illegal fishing is reframed as a wicked problem, the stakeholders involved can also recognize that there are no perfect solutions and therefore promote a mix of substandard governance approaches.
Arctic char occurrence and abundance using environmental DNA
Authors: Seymour Mathew , Smith Antony 
Published: March 2023

Abstract

Our ability to rapidly monitor species is essential for effective resource management and for establishing conservation practices. Current monitoring practices for many fish species are not effective across multiple habitats due to limited resources, permit restrictions, etc. In response, environmental DNA (eDNA)‐based surveying and monitoring programmes are increasingly being developed and applied to meet the growing demands of local regulators and resource managers. The management of Arctic char (Salvelinus alpinus), a fish species of economical and societal importance, is a prime candidate for eDNA surveillance as many existing and endemic populations are increasingly threatened by human activity and climate change.

Here we applied and tested the effectiveness of using eDNA to survey endemic and transplanted Arctic char populations across north Wales, which represents the southern extent of the Arctic char geographic range. We used a species‐specific quantitative polymerase chain reaction (qPCR) method to assess Arctic char occurrence and estimated the biomass (e.g., abundance) of Arctic char populations for each of the sampled lakes.

We found Arctic char present in four of the five lakes with eDNA detection increasing with increasing lake depth. Spatial distribution of Arctic char eDNA detection was not found to be related to spatial location or distance from inlet or outlet for each sampled lake. Arctic char biomass was estimated from eDNA using a range of previously documented eDNA concentrations to biomass measures. Following biomass validation from one lake, we suggested that a mid‐range measure of eDNA to biomass estimate (from the currently available literature) is most likely, resulting in a range of 3,002–42,614 g/ha for our biomass estimates across all sites.

Environmental DNA sampling is an effective method for assessing Arctic char populations and offers an informative base for estimating population densities. DNA detection was not spatially structured, which might indicate that the transport dynamics of eDNA are more unpredictable than previously anticipated and that standard sampling strategies should employ spatial sampling in their design to ensure adequate detection is obtained from eDNA collection efforts.

With the increasing infeasibility of traditional sampling and surveying methods it is essential to continue to test and refine our eDNA capabilities. These findings highlight the usability and sampling design strategy needed for eDNA based surveying of known and unknown locations for endemic species. We also provide an initial cross‐study framework for estimating fish abundances from eDNA data that uses and builds on existing knowledge and trends in contrast to study or site‐specific assessments.
Inverted minor literature: August Heinrich Hoffmann von Fallersleben's poem “Rotwälsch” and the naturalization of the German language
Authors: Wolf Benedikt 
Published: March 2023

AbstractIn 1829, August Heinrich Hoffmann von Fallersleben, who was later to write “Das Lied der Deutschen,” published one of the first scholarly articles on what was known as the Gaunersprache (rogues’ language), Rotwelsch. His article included a poem in Rotwelsch he had written himself. Against the backdrop of Hoffmann's nationalist persuasion and participation in the nationalist project of Germanistik, this paper discusses the question of why he turned to writing in a language he portrays in the same article as hybrid and criminal. Informed by Gilles Deleuze and Félix Guattari's concept of minor literature, this analysis of the poem itself and of its publication context concludes that Hoffmann participates in an older tradition of inverted minor literature in Rotwelsch, that is, a literature that a majority constructs within a minor language. Thus, Hoffmann's poem appears as an attempt at naturalizing Germanness by ascribing the artificial and deterritorializing aspects of any language to the Other.
Addressing negative product attribute reviews: The case of advertising product attributes and corporate social responsibility information
Authors: Wang Xingyu , Chang Yaping , Li Xinlan , Yan Jun 
Published: March 2023

AbstractNegative product reviews are bad for businesses. They can adversely affect product sales, brand evaluations, and brand loyalty. To attend to negative reviews, one approach is through advertising products or company virtues. The current study examines the efficacy of different advertising approaches (core product attribute advertising vs. non‐core product attribute advertising vs. corporate social responsibility [CSR] advertising) in helping dilute the negative effect of dissimilar negative product attribute reviews (negative core product attribute reviews vs. negative non‐core product attribute reviews). Through four experiments, we found that when the non‐core attribute of a product had negative reviews, a core attribute advertising approach weakened the effect of negative reviews. However, CSR advertising was less effective. Furthermore, when the core attributes of a product had negative reviews, a non‐core attribute advertising effort did not weaken, but actually augmented the impact of negative reviews. In addition, when the core attributes of a product received negative reviews, CSR advertising decreased the influence of negative reviews. Our findings provide theoretical and managerial implications for managing negative online reviews of product attributes.

AbstractAimsThe objective of this study was to describe and understand irregular migrants' (IMs') experiences of health disparities while living in informal settlements (ISs) during the COVID‐19 pandemic.DesignQualitative descriptive study.MethodsThirty‐four IMs originating from different African countries living in ISs took part in this study. Data were collected between January and March 2022 through three focus groups and 17 in‐depth interviews. Thematic analysis was used to analyse qualitative data with ATLAS.ti computer software.ResultsThree main themes emerged: (1) Extreme vulnerability: ISs and abuse; (2) Inequality in health treatment has increased during COVID‐19; and (3) The impact of COVID‐19 on the health of IMs: help from non‐governmental organizations and nurses.ConclusionIrregular migrants are at a higher risk of exposure to COVID‐19 due to their precarious living conditions, administrative situation and access to the health system. It is recommended that specific programmes be strengthened to improve health care for this population.ImpactWhat problem did the study address? This study examines IMs' experiences of health disparities during the COVID‐19 pandemic.What were the main findings? IMs are at higher risk of exposure to COVID‐19 due to social, health, housing and work inequalities. Community health nurses alongside non‐governmental organizations have facilitated the implementation of measures to protect this population against COVID‐19.Where and on whom will the research have an impact? With the aim of improving care for IMs, strategies have been suggested for health institutions to address problems relating to accessing the health system, and to promote networking between non‐governmental organizations and community health nurses.

Published: March 2023

AbstractAeromonas salmonicida has long been known as psychrophiles since it is mainly isolated from cold water fish, and recent reports have revealed the existence of mesophilic strains isolated from warm sources. However, the genetic differences between mesophilic and psychrophilic strains remain unclear due to few complete genomes of mesophilic strain are available. In this study, six A. salmonicida (2 mesophilic and 4 psychrophilic) were genome‐sequenced, and comparative analyses of 25 A. salmonicida complete genomes were conducted. The ANI values and phylogenetic analysis revealed that 25 strains formed three independent clades, which were referred as typical psychrophilic, atypical psychrophilic and mesophilic groups. Comparative genomic analysis showed that two chromosomal gene clusters, related to lateral flagella and outer membrane proteins (A‐layer and T2SS proteins), and insertion sequences (ISAs4, ISAs7 and ISAs29) were unique to the psychrophilic groups, while the complete MSH type IV pili were unique to the mesophilic group, all of which may be considered as lifestyle‐related factors. The results of this study not only provide new insights into the classification, lifestyle adaption and pathogenic mechanism of different strains of A. salmonicida, but also contributes to the prevention and control of disease caused by psychrophilic and mesophilic A. salmonicida.
Trajectories of incarcerated coparenting: Examining differences across race and ethnicity

Published: March 2023

AbstractEmerging research suggests that those coparenting with an incarcerated person experience multiple challenges. Examining incarcerated coparenting among minority fathers is especially salient as their incarceration rates are substantially higher than White males. This study utilized data from the Multi‐Site Family Study on Incarceration, Parenting and Partnering Study to examine changes in coparenting relationships when the male partner was incarcerated. Theoretically guided by structural family therapy, latent growth models were used to evaluate trajectories of fathers' coparenting reliability and coparenting cohesion across 34 months. Results indicated average declines within incarcerated men's reported coparenting responsibility and coparenting cohesion with their partner. Incarcerated men with higher relationship quality at T1 was significantly associated with higher initial levels of coparenting cohesion and coparenting responsibility—but not with the trajectories of coparenting change. Incarcerated fathers identifying as Hispanic and Other declined at a significantly steeper rate in coparenting responsibility than Black and White incarcerated fathers. Clinical implications and future research directions are provided.
History of key regulatory peptide systems and perspectives for future research

Published: March 2023

AbstractThroughout the 20th Century, regulatory peptide discovery advanced from the identification of gut hormones to the extraction and characterization of hypothalamic hypophysiotropic factors, and to the isolation and cloning of multiple brain neuropeptides. These discoveries were followed by the discovery of G‐protein‐coupled and other membrane receptors for these peptides. Subsequently, the systems physiology associated with some of these multiple regulatory peptides and receptors has been comprehensively elucidated and has led to improved therapeutics and diagnostics and their approval by the US Food and Drug Administration. In light of this wealth of information and further potential, it is truly a time of renaissance for regulatory peptides. In this perspective, we review what we have learned from the pioneers in exemplified fields of gut peptides, such as cholecystokinin, enterochromaffin‐like‐cell peptides, and glucagon, from the trailblazing studies on the key stress hormone, corticotropin‐releasing factor, as well as from more recently characterized relaxin‐family peptides and receptors. The historical viewpoints are based on our understanding of these topics in light of the earliest phases of research and on subsequent studies and the evolution of knowledge, aiming to sharpen our vision of the current state‐of‐the‐art and those studies that should be prioritized in the future.

AbstractBackground and AimNeurolymphomatosis is defined as an infiltration of the peripheral nervous system (PNS) by malignant lymphoma cells. It is a rare entity and diagnosis is complicated especially when PNS involvement is the initial and leading symptom. To improve knowledge of the disorder and shorten the time to diagnosis, we report a series of nine patients without a history of hematologic malignancy, who were diagnosed with neurolymphomatosis after evaluation and workup of peripheral neuropathy.MethodsThe patients were included from the Department of Clinical Neurophysiology at Pitié Salpêtrière and Nancy Hospitals over a period of 15 years. Diagnosis of neurolymphomatosis was confirmed by histopathologic examination for each patient. We characterized their clinical, electrophysiological, biological, imaging, and histopathologic features.ResultsThe neuropathy was characterized by pain (78%), proximal involvement (44%) or of all four limbs (67%), asymmetrical or with multifocal distribution (78%), abundant fibrillation (78%), a tendency to worsen rapidly, and significant associated weight loss (67%). Neurolymphomatosis was diagnosed principally on nerve biopsy (89%) identifying infiltration of lymphoid cells, atypical cells (78%), a monoclonal population (78%), and supported by fluorodeoxyglucose‐positron emission tomography, spine or plexus MRI, cerebrospinal fluid analysis, and blood lymphocyte immunophenotyping. Six patients had systemic disease and three impairment limited to the PNS. In the latter case, progression could be unpredictable and may be diffuse and explosive, sometimes occurring years after a seemingly indolent course.InterpretationThis study provides better knowledge and understanding of neurolymphomatosis when neuropathy is the initial presentation.

AbstractAimTo evaluate changes of treatment strength and its impact on prognosis in older patients with ovarian cancer.MethodsWe compared relative dose intensity (RDI) as a representative of treatment strength, prognosis, and other features between older (≥65 years) and younger patients (<65 years) retrospectively. Seventy‐seven older patients of 301 who received dose‐dense‐paclitaxel‐carboplatin (dTC) and 93 older patients of 304 who received conventional‐paclitaxel‐carboplatin (cTC) from the Japanese Gynecologic Oncology Group (JGOG) 3016 clinical trial were analyzed.ResultsThe RDI of older patients was lower than that of younger patients in cTC (87.4% vs. 90.8%, p = 0.009) but not in dTC (79.0% vs. 81.2%, p = 0.205). In both regimens, older patients had worse overall survival than younger patients: hazard ratio [HR] = 1.80; 95% confidence interval [CI]: 1.25–2.59; p = 0.001 for dTC, and HR = 1.59; 95% CI: 1.15–2.19; p = 0.04 for cTC. However, the RDI was not determined as a prognostic factor statistically. The prognostic factors identified by multivariate analysis for both regimens were clinical stage and residual disease; for dTC were age, performance status, and serum albumin; and for cTC was white blood cell count. There was no difference in neutropenia observed between age groups in either regimen.ConclusionsThe RDI of older patients varies according to the administered schedule and is not always lower than that of younger patients. Older patients with comparable treatment strength to younger patients in the dTC group did not accomplish the same level of prognosis as younger patients. Other biologic factors attributable to aging may affect prognosis.
Oral cancer in Australia: Rising incidence and worsening mortality
Authors: Sun Aria , Sharma Dileep , Choi Siu‐Wai , Ramamurthy Poornima , Thomson Peter 
Published: March 2023

AbstractBackgroundOral cancer, predominantly squamous cell carcinoma (SCC), is a lethal and deforming disease of rising incidence. Although largely preventable by eliminating harmful tobacco and alcohol risk factor behaviour, 5‐year survival rates remain around 50%, primarily due to late presentation of advanced stage disease. Whilst low socio‐economic status, regional and remote location and indigenous status are associated with head and neck cancer in general, detailed incidence and demographic data for oral SCC in Australia are limited. This study aimed to characterise the Queensland population at risk of oral SCC development.MethodsFollowing ethical approval, the Queensland Cancer Register (QCR) dataset was analysed to determine patterns of incidence, anonymised patient demographics, clinical presentation and outcome data for oral SCC cases diagnosed between 1982 and 2018.ResultsData from 9887 patients were obtained. Mean age at diagnosis was 64.55 years, with a male‐to‐female ratio of 2.51:1; males were diagnosed at a younger age (p < 0.001). At study census date, 59% of patients had died, with females demonstrating longer mean survival (p < 0.001). Clinicopathological data confirmed that SCC most commonly arose from tongue sites (49%) and, whilst tumours were predominantly moderately differentiated in nature (63%), patients with poorly differentiated carcinomas exhibited shortest survival times (p < 0.05). Over the 36‐year study period, the number of diagnoses increased 4.49‐fold, whilst the number of deaths increased 19.14‐fold.ConclusionOral SCC poses a significant and growing healthcare problem in Queensland. In the absence of national screening, characterising the high‐risk oral SCC population facilitates pragmatic opportunities to raise disease awareness, to deliver targeted screening and effective primary prevention strategies, and to provide early interventional treatment intervention to reduce disease mortality and morbidity.
Interventions to Promote Food Allergy Literacy in Childhood: A Systematic Scoping Review
Authors: Sanagavarapu Prathyusha , Dadich Ann , Hussain Wajiha 
Published: March 2023

ABSTRACTBACKGROUNDThis article introduces the concept, food allergy literacy (FAL), which encompasses the knowledge, behaviors, and skills needed to manage a food allergy and is thus critical to child safety. Yet, there is limited clarity on how to promote FAL in children.METHODSTwelve academic databases were systematically searched to identify publications on interventions to promote FAL in children. Five publications met the inclusion criteria, which involved children (3 to 12 years), their parents, or educators and tested the efficacy of an intervention.FINDINGSFour interventions were for parents and educators, while 1 intervention was for parents with their children. The interventions were educational and focused on promoting participant knowledge and skills of food allergy, and/or psychosocial in nature, promoting coping, confidence, and self‐efficacy in managing children's allergies. All interventions were deemed effective. Only 1 study used a control group, and none assessed the long‐term benefits of the interventions.IMPLICATIONS FOR SCHOOL POLICY, PRACTICE, AND EQUITYThe results can enable health service providers and educators to design evidence‐based interventions to promote FAL. This might involve designing, implementing, and evaluating curricula and play‐based activities, therein, that award greater attention to food allergy—its consequences, risks, skills to prevent risk, and managing food allergy in educational settings.CONCLUSIONSThere is limited evidence on child‐focused interventions that promote FAL. There is, therefore, considerable opportunity to co‐design and test interventions with children.

AbstractBackgroundCats presenting with upper urinary tract uroliths (UUTUs) and ureteral obstruction (“obstructive UUTU”) are typically younger than cats with idiopathic CKD that often have incidental nephroliths.HypothesisCats with upper urinary tract urolith have 2 clinical phenotypes; a more aggressive phenotype at risk of obstructive UUTU at a young age and a more benign phenotype in older cats, with reduced risk of obstructive UUTU.ObjectivesIdentify risk factors for UUTU and for obstructive UUTU.AnimalsEleven thousand four hundred thirty‐one cats were referred for care over 10 years; 521 (4.6%) with UUTU.MethodsRetrospective VetCompass observational cross‐sectional study. Multivariable logistic regression models were performed to identify risk factors for a diagnosis of UUTU vs no UUTU and additionally, obstructive UUTU vs nonobstructive UUTU.ResultsRisk factors for UUTU included female sex (odds ratio [OR] 1.6, confidence interval [CI] 1.3‐1.9;P < .001), British shorthair, Burmese, Persian, Ragdoll or Tonkinese (vs non‐purebred ORs 1.92‐3.31;P < .001) breed and being ≥4 years (ORs 2.1‐3.9;P < .001). Risk factors for obstructive UUTU were female sex (OR 1.8, CI 1.2‐2.6;P = .002), having bilateral uroliths (OR 2.0, CI 1.4‐2.9;P = .002) and age, with the odds of obstructive UUTU increasing as age at diagnosis of UUTU decreased (≥12 years, reference category; 8‐11.9 years, OR 2.7, CI 1.6‐4.5; 4‐7.9 years, OR 4.1, CI 2.5‐7.0; 0‐3.9 years, OR 4.3, CI 2.2‐8.6;P < 0.001).Conclusions and Clinical ImportanceCats diagnosed with UUTU at a younger age have a more aggressive phenotype with higher risk of obstructive UUTU compared to cats over 12 years of age diagnosed with UUTU.
