A Strategic Organizational Approach to Developing Leadership Developers
Authors: Raver Celeste K. , Ledford Andrew K. , Norton Michael 
Published: December 2022

In leadership development, the emphasis is often on the direct development of the individual, focusing on the individual’s development as a leader or on skills to deal with the process of leadership. However, less attention is paid to developing those that develop the leaders—the leadership developers. This article provides two frameworks to consider in developing leaders through a layered approach focused on leadership developers rather than simply those that are being developed. The first framework highlights the levels of leadership development within an organization: the emerging leaders, those that develop the leaders—leadership developers, and those that develop the leadership developers—leadership tutors. All levels require cognitive understanding of the necessary leadership concepts—knowing, behavioral patterns that foster success—doing, and cultivation of affective qualities of “being a leader.” The article highlights how the experiential learning cycle serves as a foundation for both leader and leadership development as it enables emerging leaders to grow in the domains of knowing, doing, and being a leader and gaining leadership skills. The article further highlights how leadership developers support the development of emerging leaders by actively engaging the experiential leader cycle. The second framework links the experiential learning cycle with a deliberately developmental organization focused on continued growth of those within the organization relative to core leader and leadership competencies. The deliberately developmental leadership organization utilizes principles embedded into the culture of the organization, practices enacted by all in the organization, and community to robustly form successful leaders.
A numerical analysis of the performance of linear interpolation schemes coupled with finite volume method in determining velocity distribution for confined convection-diffusion turbulent flow field
Authors: Gatwiri Jane , Karanja Stephen , Theuri David 
Published: December 2022

Numerical methods are widely used to obtain solutions of fluid flow problems because they well compliment experimental methods. The numerical results obtained are however never exact due to errors emanating from the scheme used in discretizing the governing equations and the flow domain. For convection-diffusion flow, the magnitudes of these errors vary depending on the scheme used to interpolate the nodal values of the flow quantities to the interfaces. The precision level of an interpolation scheme is determined by its ability to minimize these errors hence generating results that are consistent with experimental results. This paper documents the performance of three linear interpolation schemes; upwind differencing, central differencing scheme and the hybrid scheme in obtaining velocity profiles for a convection-diffusion turbulent flow field. The field variables present in the governing equations are decomposed into a mean and a fluctuating component and averaged so as to reduce the enormous scales inherent in a turbulent flow regime. The closure problem was solved using the turbulence model. The turbulence equations have been converted into discrete form using the robust finite volume discretization technique. The discretized equations are solved using a segregated pressure-based algorithm. The numerical results were validated using the benchmark results of Ampofo and Karayiannis, (2003). The results revealed that linear interpolation schemes are not appropriate in analyzing velocity distribution for confined convection-diffusion turbulent flows because the results obtained using all the three linear schemes were inconsistent with experimental results.
Experiencias del desastre y percepciones del paisaje doméstico tras los terremotos de Lorca de 2011
Authors: Boschiero Elena 
Published: December 2022

The earthquakes of May 11, 2011 in Lorca (Murcia) have been catalyzing events of a disaster which has had an impact also on the perception of the domestic landscape of the city (among others). The objective of this article is to show the relationship between the experience of the disaster and the perception of the domestic landscape of Lorca as a landscape at risk. Firstly, we present a theoretical-conceptual framework and the methodology and techniques of the ethnography carried out are presented. Successively, we analyze the perceptions about the domestic landscape of the city in which the experience of earthquakes has made the seismic risk visible are described, and the stories about the loss of references in the city and houses as rooted physical-symbolic structures in family and social space and time. Finally, we interpret local experiences, recognising the importance of considering the tangible and intangible heritage of the landscape as a whole. We conclude that the experience of the disaster in Lorca, its memory and the perception of risk offer opportunities to work on prevention and preparation for the future.
Los terremotos del 11 de mayo de 2011 en Lorca (Murcia) han sido eventos catalizadores de un desastre que ha tenido impacto, entre otras cosas, también sobre la percepción del paisaje doméstico de la ciudad. El objetivo de este artículo es evidenciar la relación entre la experiencia del desastre y la percepción del paisaje doméstico de Lorca como un paisaje en riesgo. Se presenta en primer lugar un marco teórico-conceptual y la metodología y técnicas de la etnografía realizada. Sucesivamente se describen las percepciones sobre el paisaje doméstico de la ciudad en el que la experiencia de los terremotos ha visibilizado el riesgo sísmico y se analizan los relatos sobre la pérdida de referencias de la ciudad y de las casas como estructuras físico-simbólicas arraigadas en el espacio y en el tiempo familiar y social. Por último, se interpretan las experiencias locales valorizando la importancia de considerar en su conjunto el patrimonio material e inmaterial del paisaje. Se concluye que la experiencia vivida del desastre en Lorca, la memoria y la percepción del riesgo ofrecen oportunidades para trabajar la prevención y la preparación de cara al futuro.
Más de un Wirikuta pero menos de dos: Geopolítica versus cosmopolítica como estrategia de resistencia
Authors: Aviles Conesa Ángel David , Guzmán Chávez Mauricio Genet 
Published: December 2022

We propose a look at the socio-environmental conflict in the Sacred Natural Site of Wirikuta (SSNW), in the semi-arid zone of northern Mexico, caused by the mining exploitation project carried out by the Canadian company First Majestic Silver Corp. El Frente of Defense of Wirikuta (FDW), a social movement against this project, obtained the precautionary suspension of the mining concessions. This movement and the resistance it produced became a particularly symbolic and significant emblem of social resistance in Mexico and Latin America. The analysis we propose pays attention to the changes promoted in the general context of neoliberal policies that have given way to flexible national legislation on investment and looting of natural resources that has an effect that transforms the territories. This transformation will allow certain uses of the resources and sanction others depending on the actors who implant the meanings in the territories. The premise that weaves the discussion and leads us to an appreciation of what has been learned in this case refers to the importance of the sacred as a discursive and practical element for the defense of the territory. To delimit the proposed theme, we will carry out a deductive tour of the transformation processes of the territory, beginning extensively in Latin America, Mexico and finally to the specific threat in Wirikuta as contexts of relational action.
En este artículo proponemos una mirada del conflicto socioambiental en el Sitio Sagrado Natural de Wirikuta (SSNW), en la zona semiárida del norte de México, originado por el proyecto de explotación minera que llevaría a cabo la empresa canadiense First Majestic Silver Corp. El Frente de Defensa de Wirikuta (FDW), movimiento social en contra de este proyecto, logró la suspensión cautelar de las concesiones mineras. Este movimiento y las resistencias que produjeron se constituyó como un emblema especialmente simbólico y significativo de las resistencias sociales en México y en América Latina. El análisis que proponemos presta atención a los cambios promovidos en el contexto general de las políticas neoliberales que han dado paso a legislaciones nacionales flexibles en materia de inversión y saqueo de los recursos naturales que tiene un efecto que transforma los territorios. Esta transformación va a permitir determinados usos de los recursos y a sancionar otros en función de los actores que implanten los significados a los territorios. La premisa que urde la discusión y nos conduce a una apreciación de lo aprendido en este caso remite a la importancia de lo sagrado como elemento discursivo y práctico para defensa del territorio. Para acotar la temática propuesta realizaremos un recorrido deductivo de los procesos de transformación del territorio comenzando de modo extensivo en América Latina, México y finalmente a la amenaza concreta en Wirikuta como contextos de acción relacionales.
Distancias y arraigos. Apropiación De los espacios urbanos narrados en El Faro de Felipe González
Authors: Pavié Fernanda 
Published: December 2022

En vista de los escasos estudios críticos sobre el concepto de apropiación literaria del espacio urbano, el presente artículo se propone cubrir ese vacío teórico aplicando dicha noción en el análisis de El Faro. Una de las dimensiones de la apropiación literaria es el distanciamiento, operación que configura las representaciones espaciales de la novela de tres formas: en la focalización del narrador; en la reflexión sobre el ejercicio escritural; en el trabajo de la memoria. Las conclusiones indican que la mirada distanciada se constituye como una forma de arraigarse a los espacios y como una instancia creativa de nuevos imaginarios sobre la ciudad.

Background:Advanced head and neck squamous cell carcinoma (HNSCC) is associated with a poor prognosis, and biomarkers that predict response to treatment are highly desirable. The primary aim was to predict progression-free survival (PFS) with a multivariate risk prediction model.Methods:Experimental covariates were derived from blood samples of 56 HNSCC patients which were prospectively obtained within a Phase 2 clinical trial (NCT02633800) at baseline and after the first treatment cycle of combined platinum-based chemotherapy with cetuximab treatment. Clinical and experimental covariates were selected by Bayesian multivariate regression to form risk scores to predict PFS.Results:A ‘baseline’ and a ‘combined’ risk prediction model were generated, each of which featuring clinical and experimental covariates. The baseline risk signature has three covariates and was strongly driven by baseline percentage of CD33+CD14+HLADRhigh monocytes. The combined signature has six covariates, also featuring baseline CD33+CD14+HLADRhigh monocytes but is strongly driven by on-treatment relative change of CD8+ central memory T cells percentages. The combined model has a higher predictive power than the baseline model and was successfully validated to predict therapeutic response in an independent cohort of nine patients from an additional Phase 2 trial (NCT03494322) assessing the addition of avelumab to cetuximab treatment in HNSCC. We identified tissue counterparts for the immune cells driving the models, using imaging mass cytometry, that specifically colocalized at the tissue level and correlated with outcome.Conclusions:This immune-based combined multimodality signature, obtained through longitudinal peripheral blood monitoring and validated in an independent cohort, presents a novel means of predicting response early on during the treatment course.Funding:Daiichi Sankyo Inc, Cancer Research UK, EU IMI2 IMMUCAN, UK Medical Research Council, European Research Council (335326), Merck Serono.

Published: December 2022

Aims
This study was conducted to determine the prevalence of alcohol use disorder, drinking attitude, knowledge of standard drinks and health risks associated with alcohol consumption among health science students in Ifakara town, Morogoro region in Tanzania.
Design
This study was a cross-sectional survey conducted between June and October 2020 among 372 medicine and allied health students. Participants were selected from the study institutions using random sampling. Results were presented by descriptive statistics, chi- square (χ2) test for associations and logistics regression was used to estimate odds ratios (OR) and 95% confidence (CI) for alcohol use disorder among participants.
Results
The prevalence of alcohol consumption is 39.2% with males accounting a higher prevalence among drinkers (63.7%). Ages 21-25 accounted for the highest drinking prevalence (65.8% of drinkers). There were associations between drinking and gender (p=0.002), institution of study (p=0.000) and course of study (p=0.000). Ever drinkers were about 41% of respondents. The median age of first consumption is 20.0 (IQR: 17-22). The prevalence rates of AUD (AUDIT score greater than 8) is 16.4%. Women were significantly less likely than men to report AUD (OR=0.22, 95% CI (0.11-0.47), p<0.05). Over 60% of participants did not know the number of standard drinks in commonly sold alcoholic beverages in Tanzania.
Conclusion
The prevalence of alcohol consumption and hazardous drinking is high among health sciences students. There is also a poor knowledge of standard drinks and recommended drinking limits.

Authors: Oyewole Adeoye , Olowokandi Olufunmilayo 
Published: December 2022

Background: There are many challenges facing old people’s home care services in Nigeria and sub-Saharan Africa, with rates of functional impairment in older populations exceeding those in other parts of the globe. The prevalence of mental illness especially among the elderly has been projected to increase significantly in the years ahead. This study aimed to determine the factors associated with psychiatry disorders among inmates of old people home in Nigeria.
Methods: This study was a cross-sectional design conducted among eighty-five respondents from inmates of old people’s homes, in Yaba, Lagos, selected using a purposive non-probability sampling technique. The instruments used include Structured Clinical Interview for DSM-IV and SCID-II Sociodemographic data were obtained via questionnaire and participation was by informed consent.
Results: Of the total respondents, 38.8% were between the age category of 75-84 years. Only 2(2.4%) still had a spouse, 23(27.1%) were divorced and 58(68.2%) were widowers. Also, only 18(21.2%) had a personal source of income while most 76(89.4%) depend on financial support with the majority 36(42.4%) mainly from family and voluntary donations. It was observed that 75.3% had psychiatric morbidity among which 48.2% had Dementia, 16.5% had Schizophrenia and only 10.6% were diagnosed with Depression.
Conclusion: This study lends credence to the fact that aging brings with it certain health challenges that may affect their well-being, especially in developing countries where socioeconomic ado poses significant setbacks in the care of the elderly. In view of the challenges identified among the residents of the old people’s home in Yaba; it is pertinent that efforts must be geared towards the establishment of qualitative medical facilities, especially for those with recognized physical or mental health challenges and poor socioeconomic status to cushion the effect of Mental illness.
Nutritional Psychiatry Integrated Framework: Exploration of Nutrition and Co-occurring Bipolar Disorder and Post-traumatic Stress Disorder
Authors: Cuthrell Kimberly Morton 
Published: December 2022

Nutritional psychiatry advancements are needed in understanding the effects of food nutrients on co-occurring psychiatric conditions particularly bipolar disorder and post-traumatic stress disorder (PTSD). Food nutrients contribute to the increase and decrease of symptoms in psychiatric conditions. Bipolar disorder and PTSD are frequently co-occurring and significantly impact moods, how the brain processes information, and psychological stressors. Individuals diagnosed with bipolar disorder and PTSD experience increased risks of suicide and are more likely to have unhealthy dietary habits. Understanding the appropriate nutrients to consume and avoid may contribute to promising outcomes for psychiatric conditions. Advancements in awareness of food nutrition are necessary to manage not only psychiatric conditions but also medical conditions. Omega-3 fatty acids, minerals (magnesium and zinc), pro-biotics, B vitamins, vitamins C and D, large neutral amino acids, specifically tryptophan and tyrosine, and branched-chained amino acids, antioxidants found in fruits and vegetables, and fatty acids have been linked to improved outcomes in the management of bipolar disorder and PTSD symptoms. Foods associated with poor prognosis have been linked to caffeine, alcohol, sugar, salt, processed foods, and artificial additives. This research contributes to the body of literature by exploring a link between food nutrients and bipolar disorder and PTSD because no known study has explored a co-occurring treatment intervention for such psychiatric conditions, and introduces the Nutritional Psychiatry Integrated Framework (NPIF)with a patient-centered focus which makes this research compelling. Advancements in understanding the effects of nutritional psychiatry associated with symptoms of bipolar disorder and PTSD may introduce innovative dietary and psychological treatment approaches.

AbstractObjectiveTo validate the smartphone sensor‐based Draw a Shape Test – a part of the Floodlight Proof‐of‐Concept app for remotely assessing multiple sclerosis‐related upper extremity impairment by tracing six different shapes.MethodsPeople with multiple sclerosis, classified functionally normal/abnormal via their Nine‐Hole Peg Test time, and healthy controls participated in a 24‐week, nonrandomized study. Spatial (trace accuracy), temporal (mean and variability in linear, angular, and radial drawing velocities, and dwell time ratio), and spatiotemporal features (trace celerity) were cross‐sectionally analyzed for correlation with standard clinical and brain magnetic resonance imaging (normalized brain volume and total lesion volume) disease burden measures, and for capacity to differentiate people with multiple sclerosis from healthy controls.ResultsData from 69 people with multiple sclerosis and 18 healthy controls were analyzed. Trace accuracy (all shapes), linear velocity variability (circle, figure‐of‐8, spiral shapes), and radial velocity variability (spiral shape) had a mostly fair/moderate‐to‐good correlation (|r| = 0.14–0.66) with all disease burden measures. Trace celerity also had mostly fair/moderate‐to‐good correlation (|r| = 0.18–0.41) with Nine‐Hole Peg Test performance, cerebellar functional system score, and brain magnetic resonance imaging. Furthermore, partial correlation analysis related these results to motor impairment. People with multiple sclerosis showed greater drawing velocity variability, though slower mean velocity, than healthy controls. Linear velocity (spiral shape) and angular velocity (circle shape) potentially differentiate functionally normal people with multiple sclerosis from healthy controls.InterpretationThe Draw a Shape Test objectively assesses upper extremity impairment and correlates with all disease burden measures, thus aiding multiple sclerosis‐related upper extremity impairment characterization.
