Authors: Hu Huiling , Zhang Mingming , Wu Bilin , Wu Xue 
Published: July 2023

AbstractAimTo explore the effects of different types of interference on nurses' working memory, and the role of attention control.DesignA repeated measures design.MethodsA single‐factor, four‐level within‐subjects design was adopted. Thirty‐one nurses completed a delay‐recognition task with four blocks in September 2020: Interrupting Stimulus (stimuli requiring attention), Distracting Stimulus (stimuli to‐be‐ignored), No Interference and Passively View. Behavioural responses of the participants and EEG data were recorded. MATLAB 21b and EEGLAB 21b were used for electroencephalogram data preprocessing and data extraction.ResultsFirstly, when nursing information system was used as task material, the accuracy rate and false alarm rate of primary tasks under interruption condition was statistically significantly different with that of distraction and no interference condition. There is a statistically significant difference in electroencephalogram measurement between correct and wrong response under interruption. Secondly, the role of attention control was different under interruption and distraction. There was a statistically significant positive correlation between the average amplitude distraction attention control index and task accuracy, and statistically significant negative correlation between the latency interruption attention control index and the accuracy of working memory task.ConclusionsThere were different effects of interruptions and distractions on nurses' working memory and the role of attention control were also different. Measures can be designed according to these results to reduce the negative impact of interference on nurses, so as to improve work efficiency and reduce patient risk.ImpactThis study has implications for clinical nursing during human‐computer interaction. Resumption of the speed of the target information after an interruption affected task performance. Therefore, interventions should be designed to reduce the time needed for nurses to extract task information after an interruption, such as providing key clues in the information system interface.Patient or Public ContributionRegistered nurses participated in the study as subjects.
Audit committee oversight and bank financial reporting quality

AbstractThis study investigates the impact of audit committee oversight on the financial reporting quality of US bank holding companies. To overcome identification concerns, we use Section 165 h of the Dodd–Frank Wall Street Reform and Consumer Protection Act, which requires publicly traded bank holding companies with assets exceeding $10 billion to have separate audit and risk committees. We utilise a difference‐in‐differences framework where our treatment group comprises bank holding companies that were required to separate audit and risk oversight functions following the introduction of Section 165 h and our control group comprises counterparts that already had separate audit and risk committees prior to the passage of Section 165 h. We estimate the difference in the behavior of treated bank holding companies between the pre‐ and post‐implementation period of Section 165 h with the same difference in the behavior of control group counterparts and find that the separation of audit and risk committees leads to an improvement in financial reporting quality. We attribute the observed improvements in financial reporting quality to the increased focus of audit committees arising from a reduction in the volume and complexity of tasks undertaken following the implementation of Section 165 h.

AbstractBackgroundThe impact of filtering on bipolar electrograms (EGMs) has not been systematically examined. We tried to clarify the optimal filter configuration for ventricular tachycardia (VT) ablation.MethodsFifteen patients with VT were included. Eight different filter configurations were prospectively created for the distal bipoles of the ablation catheter: 1.0–250, 10–250, 100–250, 30–50, 30–100, 30–250, 30–500, and 30–1000 Hz. Pre‐ablation stable EGMs with good contact (contact force > 10 g) were analyzed. Baseline fluctuation, baseline noise, bipolar peak‐to‐peak voltage, and presence of local abnormal ventricular activity (LAVA) were compared between different filter configurations.ResultsIn total, 2276 EGMs with multiple bipolar configurations in 246 sites in scar and border areas were analyzed. Baseline fluctuation was only observed in the high‐pass filter of (HPF) ≤ 10 Hz (p < .001). Noise level was lowest at 30–50 Hz (0.018 [0.012–0.029] mV), increased as the low‐pass filter (LPF) extended, and was highest at 30–1000 Hz (0.047 [0.041–0.061] mV) (p < .001). Conversely, the HPF did not affect the noise level at ≤30 Hz. As the HPF extended to 100 Hz, bipolar voltages significantly decreased (p < .001), but were not affected when the LPF was extended to ≥100 Hz. LAVAs were most frequently detected at 30–250 Hz (207/246; 84.2%) and 30–500 Hz (208/246; 84.6%), followed by 30–1000 Hz (205/246; 83.3%), but frequently missed at LPF ≤ 100 Hz or HPF ≤ 10 Hz (p < .001). A 50‐Hz notch‐filter reduced the bipolar voltage by 43.9% and LAVA‐detection by 34.5% (p < .0001).ConclusionBipolar EGMs are strongly affected by filter settings in scar/border areas. In all, 30–250 or 30–500 Hz may be the best configuration, minimizing the baseline fluctuation, baseline noise, and detecting LAVAs. Not applying the 50‐Hz notch filter may be beneficial to avoid missing VT substrate.

Published: July 2023

AbstractAimPatients with systemic sclerosis (SSc) present various clinical and radiological oral manifestations. However, precise evaluation of the oral features associated with diffuse cutaneous SSc (dcSSc) and limited cutaneous SSc (lcSSc) is limited. The objective of this study was to evaluate the periodontal ligament (PDL) surface in SSc patients in comparison with controls. Assessment of oral‐health‐related quality of life (OHRQoL) and the levels of different biomarkers in the gingival crevicular fluid (GCF) was performed.Materials and MethodsSSc patients and matched controls underwent standardized oral examination and cone‐beam computed tomography (CBCT). Levels of interleukin‐6 (IL‐6), chemokine (C‐X‐C motif) ligand 4 (CXCL‐4) and matrix metalloproteinase‐9 (MMP‐9) in the GCF were determined by enzyme‐linked immunosorbent assay. PDL surface was measured on CBCT axial views. OHRQoL was quantified using the Mouth Handicap in SSc Scale (MHISS).ResultsThirty‐nine SSc patients and 39 controls were included. SSc patients exhibited increased PDL surface, higher number of missing teeth as well as elevated IL‐6, MMP‐9 and CXCL‐4 levels. Reduced mouth opening was observed in dcSSc but not in lcSSc patients. MHISS score was higher in dcSSc than in lcSSc patients. Although worse periodontal parameters were found in both subgroups compared with controls, dcSSc patients presented lower gingival inflammation.ConclusionsSSc is associated with PDL space widening, impaired oral health and OHRQoL.

AbstractAimThe aim of this investigation was to estimate the prevalence, severity and extent of mid‐buccal gingival recessions (GRs; classified according to the 2018 Classification System) and to identify their risk indicators in the South American population.Materials and MethodsEpidemiological data from two cross‐sectional studies—performed on 1070 South American adolescents and 1456 Chilean adults—were obtained. All participants received a full‐mouth periodontal examination by calibrated examiners. GR prevalence was defined as the presence of at least one mid‐buccal GR ≥ 1 mm. GRs were also categorized into different recession types (RTs) according to the 2018 World Workshop Classification System. Analyses for RT risk indicators were also performed. All analyses were carried out at the participant level.ResultsThe prevalence of mid‐buccal GRs was 14.1% in South American adolescents and 90.9% in Chilean adults. In South American adolescents, the prevalence of RTs was 4.3% for RT1 GRs, 10.7% for RT2 GRs and 1.7% for RT3 GRs. In Chilean adults, the prevalence of RT1 GRs was 0.3%, while the prevalence of RT2 and RT3 GRs was 85.8% and 77.4%, respectively. Full‐Mouth Bleeding Score (FMBS; <25%) was associated with the presence of RT1 GRs in adolescents. The risk indicators for RT2/RT3 GRs mainly overlapped with those for periodontitis.ConclusionsMid‐buccal GRs affected 14.1% of South American adolescents, whereas they affected most of the Chilean adult population (>90%). While RT1 GRs are more commonly observed in a non‐representative cohort of South American adolescents (when compared to Chilean adults), the majority of Chilean adults exhibit RT2/RT3 GRs.
Affection preference, enactment, and relationship satisfaction: A dyadic analysis of love languages
Authors: Coy Anthony E. , Rodriguez Lindsey M. 
Published: July 2023

AbstractDespite its popularity, The Five Love Languages relationship self‐help book has received little empirical investigation. This may result in a disconnect between clinicians and clients with preconceived notions based on the book. The current research sought to evaluate love languages through the lens of responsiveness by examining if an accurate or biased understanding of partner preferences for different modes of affection were associated with enacted affectionate behavior, the perception of partner behavior, and relationship satisfaction. The results from a sample of 84 couples indicated that individuals tend to have a biased understanding of partner preferences and these biases influenced expressions of affection. In addition, accurately understanding partner preferences was associated with greater relationship satisfaction. The findings suggest that helping clients understand both their own and their partner's preferences for expressions of affection, may reduce bias and lead to more partner‐preferred expressions of affection and, ultimately, greater relationship satisfaction.

SummaryRats are known to use a 22‐kHz ultrasonic vocalisation as a distress call to warn of danger to other members of their group. We monitored 22‐kHz ultrasonic vocalisation emissions in rats (lean and obese) as part of a sleep deprivation study to detect the eventual presence of stress during the procedure. Unexpectedly, we detected ultrasonic vocalisation emission during rapid eye movement (REM) sleep, but not during non‐REM (NREM) sleep, in all the rats. The event occurs during the expiratory phase and can take place singularly or as a train. No difference was detected in the number or duration of these events in lean versus obese rats, during the light versus the dark period, and after sleep deprivation. As far as we know, this is the first report showing that rats can vocalise during REM sleep.
Tapping lipid droplets: A rich fat diet of intracellular bacterial pathogens
Authors: Hüsler Dario , Stauffer Pia , Hilbi Hubert 
Published: July 2023

AbstractLipid droplets (LDs) are dynamic and versatile organelles present in most eukaryotic cells. LDs consist of a hydrophobic core of neutral lipids, a phospholipid monolayer coat, and a variety of associated proteins. LDs are formed at the endoplasmic reticulum and have diverse roles in lipid storage, energy metabolism, membrane trafficking, and cellular signaling. In addition to their physiological cellular functions, LDs have been implicated in the pathogenesis of several diseases, including metabolic disorders, cancer, and infections. A number of intracellular bacterial pathogens modulate and/or interact with LDs during host cell infection. Members of the genera Mycobacterium, Legionella, Coxiella, Chlamydia, and Salmonella exploit LDs as a source of intracellular nutrients and membrane components to establish their distinct intracellular replicative niches. In this review, we focus on the biogenesis, interactions, and functions of LDs, as well as on their role in lipid metabolism of intracellular bacterial pathogens.
Susceptibility patterns of amphotericin B, itraconazole, posaconazole, voriconazole and caspofungin for isolates causing invasive mould infections from the SENTRY Antifungal Surveillance Program (2018–2021) and application of single‐site epidemiological cutoff values to evaluate amphotericin B activity

Published: July 2023

AbstractWe evaluated the activity of amphotericin B, itraconazole, posaconazole, voriconazole and caspofungin against 1468 invasive moulds collected worldwide from 2018 to 2021. Most (>92%) of the Aspergillus spp. isolates were wildtype (WT) to amphotericin B, caspofungin and the azoles. Azole–non‐wildtype A. fumigatus rates were higher in Europe (9.5%) and North America (9.1%) than Latin America (0.0%; only 12 isolates) and the Asia‐Pacific region (5.3%). Amphotericin B and caspofungin were active against azole–non‐wildtype A. fumigatus isolates. Posaconazole and amphotericin B were the most active agents against the Mucorales. Among the less common moulds, several expressed a pan‐azole–resistant phenotype; many of these species also showed elevated MIC values (MIC, >2 mg/L) for amphotericin B and caspofungin. Although most isolates of Aspergillus spp. remain WT to the azoles, azole resistance is increasing in both North America and Europe. Amphotericin B and caspofungin exhibit potentially useful activity against azole‐resistant A. fumigatus.
Better safe than sorry: Exploring the collective sensemaking process in pregnancy virtual communities through thematic analysis
Authors: Wu Wan‐Ru , Lee Li‐Chun , Yu Pei‐Jung 
Published: July 2023

AbstractPhysical symptoms induced by pregnancy are often perceived as a normal part of the physiological process and therefore not commonly discussed in clinical settings during prenatal care. This study aimed to explore how pregnant individuals adapt to physical symptoms related to their pregnancy, using the perspective of collective sensemaking. A retrospective study design with an inductive thematic analysis approach of qualitative data extracted from web‐based forum posts was conducted. Among 574 initial posts and 2801 comments, three themes were identified: (i) awareness of changing pregnancy body, (ii) uncertainty about physical symptoms, and (iii) coping with discomforts associated with pregnancy. A shared identity as a group of individuals dealing with similar challenges enables pregnant individuals to develop a better comprehension of their experiences. Healthcare professionals should recognize the importance of individual and collective sensemaking in pregnancy forums and strive to provide a supportive and empathetic environment for pregnant individuals to share their experiences and seek guidance.

Summary

Global nocturnal temperatures are rising more rapidly than daytime temperatures and have a large effect on crop productivity. In particular, stomatal conductance at night (gsn) is surprisingly poorly understood and has not been investigated despite constituting a significant proportion of overall canopy water loss.

Here, we present the results of 3 yr of field data using 12 spring Triticum aestivum genotypes which were grown in NW Mexico and subjected to an artificial increase in night‐time temperatures of 2°C.

Under nocturnal heating, grain yields decreased (1.9% per 1°C) without significant changes in daytime leaf‐level physiological responses. Under warmer nights, there were significant differences in the magnitude and decrease in gsn, values of which were between 9 and 33% of daytime rates while respiration appeared to acclimate to higher temperatures. Decreases in grain yield were genotype‐specific; genotypes categorised as heat tolerant demonstrated some of the greatest declines in yield in response to warmer nights.

We conclude the essential components of nocturnal heat tolerance in wheat are uncoupled from resilience to daytime temperatures, raising fundamental questions for physiological breeding. Furthermore, this study discusses key physiological traits such as pollen viability, root depth and irrigation type may also play a role in genotype‐specific nocturnal heat tolerance.
Neural response to rewards moderates the within‐person association between daily positive events and positive affect during a period of stress exposure

Published: July 2023

AbstractStress and neural responses to reward can interact to predict psychopathology, but the mechanisms of this interaction are unclear. One possibility is that the strength of neural responses to reward can affect the ability to maintain positive affect during stress. In this study, 105 participants completed a monetary reward task to elicit the reward positivity (RewP), an event‐related potential sensitive to rewards. Subsequently, during a stressful period, participants reported on their affect nine times a day and on daily positive and negative events for 10 days. Even during heightened stress, experiencing more positive events was associated with increased positive affect. The RewP significantly moderated this association: Individuals with a larger RewP reported greater increases in positive affect when they experienced more positive events, relative to individuals with a smaller RewP. A blunted RewP might contribute to stress susceptibility by affecting how much individuals engage in positive emotion regulation during stress.
The effect of policy narratives on policy elite versus public preferences for hydraulic fracturing regulation
Authors: Galloway Ben , Zanocco Chad , Song Geoboo , Jones Michael 
Published: July 2023

AbstractCentral to the growing policy debate surrounding climate change is the role of fossil fuels in the energy sector. Chief among these issues is the role of hydraulic fracturing, or “fracking,” which has drawn controversy for its negative externalities while also allowing the extraction of a new range of oil and gas reserves. This research applies the Narrative Policy Framework (NPF), combined with grid‐group cultural theory (CT), to examine the similarities and differences in the ways in which the general public and policy elites' policy preferences are shaped by culturally nuanced fracking narratives. In doing so, we employ a unique online survey experiment using a sample of the general public (n = 1149) and local policy elites (n = 1110), where our experimental subjects are assigned to one of four groups: a control group which receives a standard list of facts regarding fracking, and three treatment groups, each of which receives an egalitarian, individualist, and hierarch fracking policy narrative, respectively. We utilize causal mediation analysis to comparatively examine effects of these narrative treatments on fracking policy preferences. We find that policy elites and the general public are influenced by narrative elements in different ways, suggesting how a potential gap in policy preferences could form even if the general public and policy elites are exposed to the same policy narratives. This has implications for fracking regulation policy processes as well as other environmental and energy policy domains.

Published: July 2023

AbstractBackgroundThe rehabilitation of maxillectomy defects is a challenging endeavour that necessitates customizing the procedure for each patient. The successful treatment for these patients requires a combined conventional and contemporary treatment options. The high‐tech prosthodontic treatment option for these defects and distal extension cases are combining fixed and removable partial dentures with precision/semi‐precision attachments. It will enhance retention, stability, esthetics and functional ability of the prosthesis.MethodsThree post‐Covid Mucormycosis patients reported after localised debridement and partial maxillectomy for definitive rehabilitation. For partial Maxillectomy patients, DMLS designed cast partial denture along with semi‐precision attachments (Preci‐vertix and OT strategy Rhein For patient with localized defect, DMLS designed cast partial denture was planned. For both patients the defect area was kept as hollow cavity (Closed or Open), in order to reduce the weight of the prosthesis.Results and ConclusionThe prosthodontic rehabilitation of these patient can be a simple and economical treatment options and it improves the stomatognathic functions and quality of life of the patient. The major hurdles during rehabilitation are retention and stability as there is no basal seat and hard tissue support. Hence, we tried a combined conventional and digital techniques in order to provide prosthesis with precise fit and accuracy as well as reducing the treatment time and visits of the patients.
