AbstractIncreased human life expectancy broadens the alternatives for missing teeth and played a role in the widespread use of dental implants and related augmentation procedures for the aging population. Though, many of these patients may have one or more diseases. These systemic conditions may directly lead to surgical complications, compromise implant/bone healing, or influence long‐term peri‐implant health and its response to biologic nuisances. Offering patients credible expectations regarding intra‐ and postoperative complications and therapeutic prognosis is an ethical and legal obligation. Clear identification of potential types of adverse effects, complications, or errors is important for decision‐making processes as they may be related to different local, systemic, and technical aspects. Therefore, the present review structures the underlying biological mechanisms, clinical evidence, and clinical recommendations for the most common systemic risk factors for implant‐related complications.
Contact and control: Engagement and influence among women of color state agency heads

Published: June 2023

AbstractWhile scholarship is delving into the representation of women and people of color within the U.S. bureaucracy, less is known about these individuals' discretion within their roles. Using an intersectionality framework, this article explores the experiences of women of color in leadership roles within state government agencies, their communication with elected superiors, and perceptions of their own policy discretion and communication compared with White men and women, and men of color. Leveraging the American State Administrators Project, we find that women of color have less communication with elected officials and their staff but also perceive that they have less discretionary control over their departments. This article highlights that while women of color are increasing in leadership roles within state bureaucracies, disparities exist between women of color and their colleagues. We call attention to the disproportionate levels of oversight and discretion perceived by women of color.
To profile or not?
Authors: Deutsch Yael , Gavious Arieh 
Published: June 2023

AbstractDeveloping effective inspection processes at border crossings in order to identify violators within large groups of mostly innocent people is an important and difficult task. Passenger profiling is a tool used to deal with this task, but it raises many public concerns and ongoing debates about its usefulness. In this article, we study whether profiling is helpful, how it should be used to maximize its effectiveness, and how social utility is affected by its use. We consider two game models that take place at a crowded border crossing, where passengers are divided into different groups based on their risk profile. The models involve three players: the defender, the attacker, and the passenger recruited to engage in a violation. The defender decides on an inspection policy for every group of passengers. The attacker decides from which group to recruit a single passenger as a violator. The recruited passenger has private knowledge about the likelihood that she/he will engage in the violation or not. We solve the game models and compare their solutions with those of a no‐profiling inspection policy. We then study a model with four players, including a social planner who is concerned about social utility, and chooses the defender's inspection resources and policy. We show that the announced profiling policy provides the highest payoffs to the defender. Regarding social utility, profiling is always better than no profiling. However, there are cases where the unannounced profiling policy provides the most social utility.
Introduction: Power in Pelevin1
Authors: Filimonova Tatiana , Khagi Sofya , Vinokour Maya 
Published: June 2023

AbstractThis cluster of articles by Sofya Khagi, Tatiana Filimonova, Daniel Taehun Lee, and Maya Vinokour examines the oeuvre of Victor Pelevin over the last three decades, interrogating his relationship with various forms of power. In the introduction, the authors survey recent scholarship on power in Pelevin’s work, positing the primacy of power in his literary project at various points in his writing career. The articles examine Pelevin’s vision of political, personal, social, economic, and spiritual power as expressed through the philosophical‐aesthetic mode of the sublime, Buddhist spirituality, as well as in the contexts of geopolitics, Russian civilizationism, and Anglo‐American Neo‐Reactionary thought. A resonant voice in contemporary Russian prose, Pelevin engages with influential philosophical, political, and aesthetic discourses inside and outside post‐Soviet space—if not deconstructing their power, then at least planting seeds of doubt in his readers’ minds.
Power and the Aerial Sublime in Victor Pelevin
Authors: Khagi Sofya 
Published: June 2023

AbstractThis essay distinguishes flight as a salient trope throughout multiple Pelevin texts: Omon Ra (1992), Chapaev and the Void (1996), Generation P (1999), Empire V (2006), and Love for Three Zuckerbrins (2014). It examines flight through the aesthetics of the sublime—classical, (post)‐Soviet, and postmodern. The “aerial sublime” focuses on the motifs of flight, elevation, and their reversal such as descent and going underground. Through this analysis, the essay offers an entry point to the question of Pelevin’s preoccupation with the subject’s relation to power—political, military, and capital‐, media‐, or technology‐driven. The airborne protagonist is positioned in spatial counterpoint to tyrannical social and cosmic forces. One may remain in their clutches or escape, withdraw, comically yield, or pragmatically acquiesce. Pelevin’s aerial sublime grows increasingly bleak: from an internalized ethical experience to active thought work without resolution, touching the noumenal, or ethical to the apotheosis of the non‐reasoning, non‐ethical, and inhuman. That is, his later works envision the sublime transformed into an anti‐sublime through power annihilating the human as a sentient and ethical agent. Pelevin’s aerial sublime thereby conveys lessons about ironclad social and cosmic mechanics and the subject that is constituted, coerced, and occasionally resistant to it.
Multiple orthogonal polynomials associated with the exponential integral
Authors: Van Assche Walter , Wolfs Thomas 
Published: June 2023

AbstractWe introduce a new family of multiple orthogonal polynomials satisfying orthogonality conditions with respect to two weights on the positive real line, with the gamma density and a density related to the exponential integral . We give explicit formulas for the type I functions and type II polynomials, their Mellin transform, Rodrigues formulas, hypergeometric series, and recurrence relations. We determine the asymptotic distribution of the (scaled) zeros of the type II multiple orthogonal polynomials and make a connection to random matrix theory. Finally, we also consider two related families of mixed‐type multiple orthogonal polynomials.

Published: June 2023

AbstractBackgroundIn today's complex healthcare organisations there is an increasing recognition of the need to enhance care quality and patient safety. Nurses' competence in demonstrating caring behaviour during patient encounters affects how patients experience and participate in their care. Nurse educators are faced with the challenge of balancing the demand for increasingly complex knowledge and skills with facilitating students' abilities essential to becoming compassionate and caring nurses.AimThe aim was to describe undergraduate nursing students' development of caring behaviour while participating in a caring behaviour course.MethodThis pilot study used a quantitative observational design. At a university in Sweden, video‐recorded observational data from twenty‐five students were collected in the first and last weeks of a full‐time five‐week Caring Behaviour Course (the CBC). In total, 56‐min video‐recorded simulation interactions between a student and a standardised patient were coded by a credentialed coder using a timed‐event sequential continuous coding method based on the Caring Behaviour Coding Scheme (the CBCS). The CBCS maps the five conceptual domains described in Swanson's Theory of Caring with related sub‐domains that align with Swanson's qualities of the Compassionate Healer and the Competent Practitioner. The CBCS contains seventeen verbal and eight non‐verbal behavioural codes, categorised as caring or non‐caring.ResultsBetween the two simulations, most verbal caring behaviours increased, and most non‐verbal caring behaviours decreased. Statistically significant differences between the simulations occurred in the sub‐domains Avoiding assumptions and Performing competently/skilfully in the quality of the Competent Practitioner. Most observed caring behaviours aligned with the Compassionate Healer.ConclusionGenerally, the students' development of caring behaviours increased while participating in the CBC. Using a structured observational behavioural coding scheme can assist educators in assessing caring behaviour both in education and in practice, supporting caring as the universal foundation of nursing and a key to patient safety.

Farmers who tinker: Grounded alternatives to incrementalism and the growth imperative
Authors: Comi Matt 
Published: June 2023

AbstractWhile hop yards have historically been small‐acreage operations with high levels of infrastructure, North American hop growing has increasingly followed a neo‐plantation model of high‐acreage and high‐automation farms. These large hop yards often have highly developed marketing and breeding components, and these growers’ practices have reshaped the hop marketplace. Within this landscape are a scattered group of mostly small‐to‐medium‐scale farmers who also grow this labour‐intensive, high‐cost, high‐infrastructure agriculture good. These farmers eschew many of the normative methods employed by large‐scale hop growing, breeding and marketing operations and instead tinker with inputs and infrastructure to improvise meaningful ways to maintain viability without growing larger. While many of these operations are medium‐sized growers, their ability to rethink the growth model of agriculture by engaging in immediate‐term on‐farm innovation and tinkering solutions illustrates an alternative approach to incrementalism when considering stepwise solutions for improving financial and environmental sustainability in quality‐focused fruit, vegetable and herb production in North America, Europe and elsewhere.
Social influences on mask‐wearing intentions during the COVID‐19 pandemic
Authors: Lipsey Nikolette P. , Losee Joy E. 
Published: June 2023

AbstractFace mask‐wearing is important for reducing COVID‐19 spread. Masking is a publicly visible behavior and thus, social factors such as descriptive and personal norms, risk images, and impression management concerns are salient and likely influential. Study 1 (N = 381) surveyed participants during the early stages of the pandemic, assessing correlational relationships between social factors and masking intentions. Study 2 (N = 778) replicated Study 1 at a later stage in the pandemic and experimentally manipulated the group to which norms and risk images referred—familiar, unfamiliar, or general others. Study 1 findings revealed that perceived descriptive norms, personal norms, and risk images, together strongly related to face mask‐wearing independent of COVID‐19 threat perception. Study 2 results revealed that people's impressions of non‐mask wearers were less negative and their perceptions of mask‐wearing less normative among familiar versus unfamiliar others. People were also less likely to wear masks among familiar versus unfamiliar others. These results indicate that specific care should be taken to develop interventions that will increase masking in the presence of familiar others.

AbstractScarab beetles (Scarabaeidae) are a diverse and ecologically important group of angiosperm‐associated insects. As conventionally understood, scarab beetles comprise two major lineages: dung beetles and the phytophagous Pleurosticti. However, previous phylogenetic analyses have not been able to convincingly answer the question whether or not the two lineages form a monophyletic group. Here, we report our results from phylogenetic analyses of more than 4000 genes mined from transcriptomes of more than 50 species of Scarabaeidae and other Scarabaeoidea. Our results provide convincing support for the monophyly of Scarabaeidae, confirming the debated sister group relationship of dung beetles and phytophagous pleurostict scarabs. Supermatrix‐based maximum likelihood and multispecies coalescent phylogenetic analyses strongly imply the subfamily Melolonthinae as currently understood being paraphyletic. We consequently suggest various changes in the systematics of Melolonthinae: Sericinae Kirby, 1837 stat. rest. and sensu n. to include the tribes Ablaberini, Diphucephalini and Sericini, and Sericoidinae Erichson, 1847 stat. rest. and sensu n. to include the tribes Automoliini, Heteronychini, Liparetrini, Maechidiini, Phyllotocini, Scitalini, and Sericoidini. Both subfamilies appear to consistently form a monophyletic sister group to all remaining subfamilies so far included within pleurostict scarabs except Orphninae. Our results represent a major step towards understanding the diversification history of one of the largest angiosperm‐associated radiations of beetles.
HydroWidth: A small‐scale approach to calculate river width and its variability
Authors: Scherelis Victoria , Doering Michael , Laube Patrick 
Published: June 2023

AbstractDigital map processing techniques have enabled new computational methods to extract geographic features from scanned map sources. These are mainly historical maps and are rich in spatiotemporal information which can be derived by descriptive metrics. River channel width is such a typical ecological metric used to calculate properties such as water discharge rates and, generally, often applied in hydrological and ecological monitoring. Measures of river channel width in previous ecological work have successfully measured width based on in situ measurements or remote sensing efforts, but poorly captured the variability in river width due to simplifications of the river network or due to sparse availability of in situ measurements. As river width can greatly vary and change over space and time, capturing its variability with modern geospatial processing techniques is a key interest in interdisciplinary fields studying spatiotemporal changes of riverine properties. This article proposes HydroWidth, a small‐scale approach to measure river width continuously along a channel, capable of capturing the variability in width in simple as well as complex river structures without the use of river masks. The small‐scale approach is compared to two conventional vector‐based discrete river width measurement techniques to test the robustness of the methods in terms of measuring river width and its variability. Furthermore, this article evaluates the adaptability of HydroWidth by performing three experiments measuring river width variability at rivers of different structure, length, and complexity. The methods are applied on rivers of historical map sources, allowing a novel perspective of applying algorithms measuring river width on non‐airborne data sources. Lastly, the computational performance results of the conventional and HydroWidth methods at each experimental site are presented and discussed.
Effects of storage on quality and function of acid‐treated platelets with reduced HLA Class I surface expression
Authors: Mirlashari Mohammad Reza , Vetlesen Annette , Nissen‐Meyer Lise Sofie H. , Hetland Geir 
Published: June 2023

AbstractBackgroundRefractory patients need to be provided with HLA‐matched platelets (PLTs), which require time‐consuming cross‐matching. Treatment of PLTs with citric acid leads to denaturation of the HLA Class I complexes without significant damage to the PLTs. HLA Class I depleted PLTs could alternatively be used to HLA‐matched PLTs for transfusion. These PLTs have verified normal function up to 4–6 h after acid treatment.Materials and MethodsBuffy coat (BC) PLT concentrates were depleted of HLA Class I complexes by incubation in citric acid. The days after acid‐treatment, surface expression of HLA Class I complexes, CD62P and CD63 were determined by flow cytometry, in addition to viability and mitochondrial membrane potential (MMP). Thromboelastography (TEG) tested PLT functionality.ResultsExpression of HLA Class I complexes was reduced by 70%–75% in acid‐treated PLTs compared to untreated PLTs from day 1 through day 7. Controls and acid‐treated PLTs showed insignificant loss of MMP stored for 4 days. Analysis of the residual PLT activation and viability showed no significant differences for 4 days of storage. However, the residual PLT activation potential and viability were significantly decreased in acid‐treated PLTs and control PLTs after 7 days of storage. Acid treatment caused a significant decrease in the TEG variable, reaction time (R time), for acid‐treated PLTs as compared to control PLTs from days 1 through day 3.ConclusionOur data suggest that extended storage of acid‐treated PLTs is possible and will improve flexibility when planning for transfusion of patients with alloimmune PLT refractoriness caused by anti‐HLA‐antibodies.
Suppression and Memory for Childhood Traumatic Events: Trauma Symptoms and Non‐Disclosure
Authors: Wu Yuerui , Hartman Dana , Wang Yan , Goldfarb Deborah , Goodman Gail S. 
Published: June 2023

AbstractSelf‐reported lost memory of child sexual abuse (CSA) can be mistaken for “repressed memory.” Based on our longitudinal studies of memory and disclosure in child maltreatment victims who are now adults, we discuss findings relevant to “repressed memory cases.” We examined relations between self‐report of temporarily lost memory of CSA (subjective forgetting) and memory accuracy for maltreatment‐related experiences (objective memory). Across two studies involving separate samples, we find evidence for memory suppression rather than repression: (1) Most adults who claimed temporary lost memory of CSA reported memory suppression and clarified that they could have remembered the event if asked; (2) subjective forgetting was positively associated with accurate objective memory for maltreatment‐related experiences. Subjective forgetting was also related to increased adult trauma symptoms and related to childhood non‐disclosure of CSA. Moreover, trauma‐related psychopathology mediated the relation between non‐disclosure and subjective forgetting. Implications for psychological theory and repressed memory cases are discussed.
A comparative study of English in advertising in France and Quebec
Authors: Martin Elizabeth 
Published: June 2023

AbstractThis study seeks to expand our understanding of code‐mixed advertising by comparing the use of English aimed at Francophone consumers in the Expanding Circle and the Inner Circle. Focusing on France and the Canadian province of Quebec, this analysis illustrates how marketing strategies differ across regional and national boundaries while highlighting the shift of English from a foreign to an additional language of use in Europe. Frenglish slogans observed in both contexts indicate that those who design advertising copy for France rely on a much wider gamut of English words and expressions to market products to local consumers. Furthermore, these findings demonstrate how the degree of adherence to language policy is closely linked to language attitudes and other socio‐cultural variables. Although both Quebec and France have a long‐standing tradition of language planning in favor of French, advertising practices differ quite significantly due to their respective socio‐historical and communicative contexts.
Forecasting Dropout Trend at King’s College of The Philippines using ARI-MA Modeling
Authors: Gambulao Ruben Jr. 
Published: June 2023

Student drop-outs continue to be one of the perineal problems of educational institutions. Accordingly, institution managers are trying to find ways and means to curb impending issues on drop-outs to satisfy quality education. In this paper, the researcher delved into the different time series modeling methods in order to forecast the rate of college dropouts at King’s College of the Philippines-Benguet. The method considered was the Autoregressive Integrated Moving Average (ARIMA) model. The data used in this paper was the number of school dropouts from 2005 to 2018 obtained from the school registrar which shows more dropout during the first semester than the second semester. Initial result obtained from using ARIMA reveals that the best model used is the model ARIMA which is the auto regression (AR 1), then the moving average (MA 1), with first differencing on the second semester.
