Authors: Ma Xiumei , Liu Yunxing , Zhang Pengfei , Qi Rongtao , Meng Fanbo 
Published: March 2023

IntroductionOnline health information seeking has been verified to play a crucial role in improving public health and has received close scholarly attention. However, the seeking behavior of older adults, especially the underlying mechanism through which they are motivated to seek health information online, remains unclear. This study addresses the issue by proposing a theoretical model leveraging social cognitive theory.MethodsIT self-efficacy and IT innovativeness were identified as personal factors and professional support and social support were identified as environmental factors. We conducted a survey that included 347 older people in China and examined the research hypotheses with a structural equation model.ResultsIT self-efficacy and IT innovativeness facilitate older adults to seek health information online by increasing their perceived benefit of using the internet. Additionally, professional support and social support enhanced older adults' online seeking behavior by promoting their health awareness. We also found that perceived benefit displayed a stronger impact than health awareness on older adults' behavior related to searching for health information online.ConclusionThis study reveals that IT self-efficacy, IT innovativeness, professional support, and social support will promote older adults to seek health information online by enhancing their health awareness and perceived benefit. The findings of this study provide significant theoretical and practical implications.

BackgroundA visio-vestibular home exercise program (VV-HEP) can provide an equitable and cost-effective method for therapy targeted towards visio-vestibular deficits that are common following concussion. The effects of a VV-HEP on improving concussion symptoms and visio-vestibular function are unclear.PurposeDetermine the effect of VV-HEP on symptoms and visio-vestibular function in concussed pediatric patients.MethodsThis study included 527 patients [294 female (55.8%); age = 14.4 ± 2.1 years] reporting to a specialty care concussion center within 28 days of injury and for a first follow-up within 60 days of injury. Patients completed the Post-Concussion Symptom Inventory (PCSI) and Visio-Vestibular Examination (VVE). Patients were prescribed the VV-HEP at initial visit, with exercises including saccades, gaze stability, convergence, and balance, and instructed to complete these 1–2 times/day. At follow-up, patients self-reported their VV-HEP progress as (1) has not done, (2) in progress, or (3) completed. Primary outcomes included VV-HEP progress at follow-up, PCSI endorsement and severity, VVE subtests (normal/abnormal), and total VVE score (abnormal = 2 + abnormal subtests). Kruskal-Wallis tests and chi-square were used to determine if concussion symptoms or the proportion of abnormal VVE outcomes, respectively, were associated with VV-HEP status. Post-hoc pairwise comparisons with Bonferonni corrections were used to determine concussion symptom (α = 0.017 a priori) and VVE (α = 0.005 a priori) differences in VV-HEP status.ResultsAt follow-up, patients who had completed the VV-HEP reported lower symptom endorsement (median = 1, IQR = 0–3) and lower symptom severity (median = 1, IQR = 0–4) relative to patients who had not started the VV-HEP (endorsement median = 7, IQR = 1–13, p &lt; 0.0001; severity median = 15.5, IQR = 2–32.5, p &lt; 0.0001) and those in progress (endorsement median = 8, IQR = 3–14, p &lt; 0.0001; severity median = 15, IQR = 4–30, p &lt; 0.0001). A lower proportion of patients who completed the VV-HEP reported with abnormal vestibular-ocular reflex (22.2%), tandem gait (0%), and total VVE score (22.2%) relative to those who had not started or those in progress (p &lt; 0.005).ConclusionOur findings indicate that patients who completed the VV-HEP had lower symptom burden and improved visio-vestibular function relative to those who did not start or were in progress. This suggests that a VV-HEP can effectively reduce visio-vestibular dysfunction following concussion and may serve as a means to minimize inequities in access to care.
Update on the Effect of the Urinary Microbiome on Urolithiasis
Authors: Jung Hae Do , Cho Seok , Lee Joo Yong 
Published: March 2023

Microbiota are ecological communities of commensal, symbiotic, and pathogenic microorganisms. The microbiome could be involved in kidney stone formation through hyperoxaluria and calcium oxalate supersaturation, biofilm formation and aggregation, and urothelial injury. Bacteria bind to calcium oxalate crystals, which causes pyelonephritis and leads to changes in nephrons to form Randall’s plaque. The urinary tract microbiome, but not the gut microbiome, can be distinguished between cohorts with urinary stone disease (USD) and those without a history of the disease. In the urine microbiome, the role is known of urease-producing bacteria (Proteus mirabilis, Klebsiella pneumoniae, Staphylococcus aureus, Pseudomonas aeruginosa, Providencia stuartii, Serratia marcescens, and Morganella morganii) in stone formation. Calcium oxalate crystals were generated in the presence of two uropathogenic bacteria (Escherichia coli and K. pneumoniae). Non-uropathogenic bacteria (S. aureus and Streptococcus pneumoniae) exhibit calcium oxalate lithogenic effects. The taxa Lactobacilli and Enterobacteriaceae best distinguished the healthy cohort from the USD cohort, respectively. Standardization is needed in urine microbiome research for urolithiasis. Inadequate standardization and design of urinary microbiome research on urolithiasis have hampered the generalizability of results and diminished their impact on clinical practice.
Genetic Diversity in the mtDNA of Physarum polycephalum
Authors: Hammar Freya , Miller Dennis L. 
Published: March 2023

The mtDNA of the myxomycete Physarum polycephalum can contain as many as 81 genes. These genes can be grouped in three different categories. The first category includes 46 genes that are classically found on the mtDNA of many organisms. However, 43 of these genes are cryptogenes that require a unique type of RNA editing (MICOTREM). A second category of gene is putative protein-coding genes represented by 26 significant open reading frames. However, these genes do not appear to be transcribed during the growth of the plasmodium and are currently unassigned since they do not have any apparent similarity to other classical mitochondrial protein-coding genes. The third category of gene is found in the mtDNA of some strains of P. polycephalum. These genes derive from a linear mitochondrial plasmid with nine significant, but unassigned, open reading frames which can integrate into the mitochondrial DNA by recombination. Here, we review the mechanism and evolution of the RNA editing necessary for cryptogene expression, discuss possible origins for the 26 unassigned open reading frames based on tentative identification of their protein product, and discuss the implications to mtDNA structure and replication of the integration of the linear mitochondrial plasmid.

Published: March 2023

El presente artículo tiene como objetivo indagar, comparativamente, las representaciones mediáticas de la “alteridad” en un caso de violencia institucional ocurrido en la ciudad de Rosario en el mes de junio de 2017. Para ello, pondremos en relación tres variables centrales: 1) la clasificación de los casos, 2) caracterización socio-demográfica de las víctimas y 3) el rol de la familia.
El trabajo es el resultado parcial de una investigación cuatrianual (2018-2022), donde construimos un enfoque multivariado -con un total de ocho dimensiones abordadas-, que orientó el análisis de un corpus constituido por más de 60 noticias de tres casos de violencia institucional -ocurridos en el período 2017-2019-, en tres medios gráficos de la ciudad de Rosario.
En este trabajo proponemos un abordaje cualitativo de las noticias seleccionadas sobre el caso Medina-Campos, comparando la construcción de la noticia en el diario La Capital y El Ciudadano -ambos de la ciudad de Rosario-, reconociendo allí cómo se clasifican y califican las alteridades, atribuyéndoles, diferencialmente, las condiciones de ser vivibles o matables, y tratando de responder a la pregunta sobre cómo, inscriptos en una batalla discursiva, se construyen los sentidos sociales sobre las sujetos involucrados.
relación bilateral argentino-estadounidense desde la llegada de J. Biden a la Casa Blanca:
Authors: Cavigliasso Nicolás 
Published: March 2023

La relación bilateral entre Argentina y los Estados Unidos es una relación tan compleja como necesaria de comprender acabadamente. En este artículo se propone una aproximación desde el enfoque constructivista de Alexander Wendt (2003) en tres niveles – macroestructural, microestructural y de la unidad– para comprender el derrotero de esta relación desde la llegada de Joseph Biden al Salón Oval y hasta la invasión rusa en territorio ucraniano (20/02/2021- 24/02/2022).
Entre todas las imágenes de crisis global, regional y domésticas, la administración Biden parece esforzarse por retomar el sendero del liderazgo norteamericano, lo que desde Argentina supone la articulación de nuevas estrategias para relacionarse con el hegemón hemisférico. La microestructura parece dar luz sobre ciertas convergencias entre los sistemas de creencias de ambos gobiernos y algunos componentes cooperativos que permiten puntos de contacto entre sus agendas externas. Sin embargo, también alerta sobre algunos desafíos y límites para el vínculo bilateral.

Published: March 2023

Background: Late-onset Pompe disease (LOPD) is a rare, progressive neuromuscular condition typically characterized by weakness of skeletal muscles, including those involved in respiration and diaphragmatic dysfunction. Individuals with LOPD typically eventually require mobility and/or ventilatory support. Objectives: This study aimed to develop health state vignettes and estimate health state utility values for LOPD in the United Kingdom. Methods: Vignettes were developed for 7 health states of LOPD with states defined in terms of mobility and/or ventilatory support. Vignettes were drafted based on patient-reported outcome data from the Phase 3 PROPEL trial (NCT03729362) and supplemented by a literature review. Qualitative interviews with individuals living with LOPD and clinical experts were conducted to explore the health-related quality-of-life (HRQoL) impact of LOPD and to review the draft vignettes. Vignettes were finalized following a second round of interviews with individuals living with LOPD and used in health state valuation exercises with people of the UK population. Participants rated the health states using the EQ-5D-5L, visual analogue scale, and time trade-off interviews. Results: Twelve individuals living with LOPD and 2 clinical experts were interviewed. Following the interviews, 4 new statements were added regarding dependence on others, bladder control problems, balance issues/fear of falling, and frustration. One hundred interviews with a representative UK population sample were completed. Mean time trade-off utilities ranged from 0.754 (SD = 0.31) (no support) to 0.132 (SD = 0.50) (invasive ventilatory and mobility support–dependent). Similarly, EQ-5D-5L utilities ranged from 0.608 (SD = 0.12) to -0.078 (SD = 0.22). Discussion: The utilities obtained in the study are consistent with utilities reported in the literature (0.670-0.853 for nonsupport state). The vignette content was based on robust quantitative and qualitative evidence and captured the main HRQoL impacts of LOPD. The general public rated the health states consistently lower with increasing disease progression. There was greater uncertainty around utility estimates for the severe states, suggesting that participants found it harder to rate them. Conclusion: This study provides utility estimates for LOPD that can be used in economic modeling of treatments for LOPD. Our findings highlight the high disease burden of LOPD and reinforce the societal value of slowing disease progression.
Uso de Anticonvulsivantes Profiláticos na Hemorragia Subaracnóide: Existe um Padrão?
Authors: Marcondes Freitas João Ricardo , Martins de Araujo Marcio 
Published: March 2023

A hemorragia subaracnóide aneurismática (HSA) é considerada causa importante de morte e sequelas neurológicas. A taxa de mortalidade desta doença pode alcançar 50% nos primeiros dois meses após sangramento do aneurisma encefálico. Apesar dos avanços científicos o resultado do tratamento não mudou nos últimos anos. Os medicamentos anticonvulsivantes são utilizados rotineiramente para tratamento profilático em pacientes vítimas de HSA. De acordo com a pesquisa ministrar anticonvulsivante antes da realização cirúrgica em pacientes de baixo risco, em curto prazo, pois seu uso contínuo apresenta efeitos colaterais, demonstra efetividade. Porém não há evidencias suficientes para justificar sua utilização na prevenção primária e secundária de convulsões após uma hemorragia subaracnóide. A heterogeneidade fisiopatológica dos pacientes afetados pela HSA, a ausência de investigações farmacocinéticas satisfatórias para avaliar doses ótimas, e o momento para a administração reforçam a necessidade de mais estudos para se traçar um modelo pré-clínico terapêutico.

Published: March 2023

Introducción: Las habilidades del sujeto para modificar o reestructurar un conflicto le llamamos capacidad de afrontamiento y buscan disminuir el estrés que esto le causa. Estas estrategias dependen de la personalidad y del contexto en que se presentan. El objetivo del trabajo es explorar que estrategias utiliza más el adulto mayor en la Ciudad de Torreón, Coahuila, México.
Material y Método; Estudio transversal en 316 adultos mayores seleccionados aleatoriamente de la población. se aplicó el inventario de afrontamiento de Cano y cols. Se procesaron los datos en SPSS V21 para obtener frecuencias y asociación con variables sociodemográficas mediante ANOVA
Resultados: Los estilos más utilizados fueron el pensamiento desiderativo y el enfocado a la resolución del problema. De los estilos centrados en la emoción los más utilizados fueron el apoyo social, y la expresión emocional. Los menos utilizados fueron los inadecuados centrados en la emoción (retirada social y autocrítica). El manejo de estrategias centradas en resolución del problema fue más frecuente en sujetos entre 60 a 75 años y con nivel cultural y educativo más alto. Las mujeres y las personas con más actividades religiosas utilizan más frecuentemente estrategias de apoyo social. Los mayores de 75 años tienen puntuaciones superiores en la estrategia de retirada social
Conclusiones: Las estrategias utilizadas con mayor frecuencia fueron las enfocadas a la resolución del problema, no obstante, el porcentaje que utiliza estrategias inadecuadas, principalmente enfocadas al problema sigue siendo elevado. El adulto mayor puede utilizar diversas estrategias simultáneamente y en forma variable dependiendo de una gran cantidad de variables, lo que vuelve difícil su estudio.
