Authors: Woodall Alan , Prosser Amy , Griffiths Millie , Shooter Ben , Garfitt Joy , Walker Lauren , Buchan Iain 
Published: September 2022

ABSTRACTAims and MethodTo evaluate cardiovascular risk in a rural inpatient psychiatric unit over a one-year period. Care records were analysed for risk factor recording, and cardiovascular risks estimated using the QRISK3 calculator, which estimates 10-year risk of myocardial infarction or stroke.ResultsOf eligible patients, risk factor recording as part of routine care was completed in 86% of possible QRISK3 inputs, enabling QIRSK3 estimation in all eligible patients. QRISK3 for this group was raised (Relative risk: 3.8, 95%CI: 2.5 – 5.0). High risk of cardiovascular disease (QRISK3 score >10%) was detected in 28% of patients.Clinical ImplicationsThis service evaluation demonstrated significant unmet need for cardiovascular risk reduction that could be identified as part of routine care. An opportunity exists to integrate mental and physical healthcare by routinely assessing cardiovascular risk in psychiatric inpatients. Resources and training are needed to produce this risk information and act on it.
The landscape of functional brain network impairments in late-onset GM2 gangliosidosis

Published: September 2022

AbstractLate-onset GM2 gangliosidosis (LOGG) is an ultra-rare neurological disease with motor, cognitive and psychiatric manifestations. It is caused by mutations in the HEXA or HEXB genes. Although cerebellar structural and metabolic impairments have been established, global brain functional impairments in this disease remain unknown. In this first functional MRI (fMRI) report on LOGG (N=14), we took an exploratory, multi-pronged approach by assessing impairments in several resting-state fMRI signal characteristics: fMRI signal strength, neurovascular coupling, static and time-varying functional connectivity, and network topology. Contrary to the predominance of cerebellar aberrations in prior non-functional studies, we found more widespread cortical aberrations (p<0.05, FDR-corrected) mainly in cognitive control networks but also in the default mode and somatomotor networks. There was reduced fMRI signal strength, enhanced neurovascular coupling, pathological hyper-connectivity, and altered temporal variability of connectivity in the LOGG cohort. We also observed an imbalance between functional segregation and integration as seen in other psychiatric/neurological disorders, with heightened segregation and suppressed integration (i.e., inefficient brain-wide communication). Some of these imaging markers were significantly associated with clinical measures, as well as with HEXA and HEXB gene expression. These aberrations might contribute to psychiatric symptoms (psychosis, mood disturbances), cognitive impairments (memory, attention, executive function), and oculomotor disturbances commonly seen in LOGG. Future LOGG imaging studies should probe brain function in addition to structure/metabolism while looking for mechanistic insights beyond the cerebellum.
Comparison of the effect of water jet cavitation peening on stress corrosion cracking behavior of nickel-based alloy 600 and alloy 182 in high temperature water
Authors: Ming Tingyun , Peng Qunjia , Han Yaolei , Zhang Tao 
Published: September 2022

Purpose
This paper aims to understand the effect of water jet cavitation peening (WJP) on stress corrosion cracking (SCC) behavior of alloy 600 and alloy 182 in high temperature water.

Design/methodology/approach
Surface and cross-section morphology, grain boundary microstructure, residual stress and strain distribution, hardness and surface roughness in water jet cavitation peened alloy 600 and alloy 182 were characterized.

Findings
A superior stress corrosion cracking resistance was obtained in 600MA, which can be attributed to the formation of the ultrafine grain layer and the higher magnitude residual compressive stress.

Originality/value
Relationship between WJP-induced microstructure and stress state change and SCC susceptibility was conducted. It could provide a theoretical basis for developing application of WJP in nuclear power plants.

Published: September 2022

PurposeThe purpose of the study is to identify which factors facilitate and hinder change management in the business strategy execution journey and contribute to its transformation.Design/methodology/approachCompanies that have implemented organizational transformation projects, as an adaptive response to their survival, were studied. The authors chose to work with three companies that went through strong changes in the period between 2014 and 2019. A total of 12 professionals were interviewed, encompassing top management and team members.FindingsCases were described, and the learning from them culminated in the recommendation of six managerial propositions, which should guide change agents in the planning and execution of their business transformation journeys.Research limitations/implicationsThe findings were observed in the three case studies that implemented change management strategies. Failure case studies were not considered, which could present other managerial propositions.Originality/valueThe results of the article highlight the importance of coalition issue before the urgency in the organizational change model and also the importance of institutionalization along the change journey. As a managerial contribution is the model called “framework of the journey of execution and transformation of corporate strategy”, which serves as guidance for executives and agents of change in organizations.

Published: September 2022

PurposeThe authors analyze the long-term relationship between the US housing market and the concentration of high net worth individuals.Design/methodology/approachThe authors apply a cointegration and causality approach on a ten years database. The database includes by US state the density of high net worth individuals, the house price index, the homeownership rate, the number of housing units, and the privately-owned housing units authorized by building permits.FindingsThe results show a limited cointegration between the concentration of US wealthy households and the housing market. Thus, the authors can partly predict the fluctuations transmission from the housing market to wealthy households.Originality/valueThe authors suggest that our findings could be of interest to wealthy households, real estate professionals, and public authorities.
Foster carers' perceptions of the long‐term effectiveness of the Fostering Changes programme
Authors: Whitehead Loren , Barraclough Shanee , Tarren‐Sweeney Michael 
Published: September 2022

AbstractThe present article reports foster carer perceptions of the long‐term effectiveness of a carer‐focussed training intervention – the Fostering Changes (FC) programme. Five foster carers who completed FC at a not‐for‐profit child and family agency in New Zealand were interviewed 13–15 months post‐training about their experiences and perceptions of FC and its subsequent effectiveness. Interpretative phenomenological analysis (IPA) informed both data collection and analysis. Five superordinate themes were identified: (1) FC is perceived to be an effective training programme that provides sustained benefits; (2) foster carer training is crucially important; (3) the challenges of fostering continue, irrespective of training; (4) caregiver confidence gained from training wanes over time in the face of persistent challenges; (5) foster carers require ongoing therapeutic interventions and support because of their children's persistent behavioural and relational difficulties. The findings suggest that, while FC provides effective and relevant training, carers simultaneously require ongoing clinical services.
Practitioner points

Children in out‐of‐home care who have persistent relational and mental health difficulties require ongoing specialised therapeutic support

Foster carer group training (such as Fostering Changes) may help to stabilise children's placements and mental health recovery but does not replace the need for personalised, systemic interventions with caregivers

Foster carer group therapeutic training is preferably integrated within ongoing, systemic, multi‐component interventions, rather than offered as discrete, stand‐alone interventions

Published: September 2022

AbstractGunshot residue (GSR) and deoxyribonucleic acid (DNA) analyses are used in the reconstruction of shooting incidents involving firearms. In both fields, adhesive tapes are commonly applied to recover traces. Using a simultaneous sampling approach for retrieving both types of traces from objects related to a shooting can be powerful. We present the results for DNA testing and GSR analysis using “DNA stubs” to recover both types of traces in one sampling. The analyses are successive: stubs are first examined with scanning electron microscopy for the presence of GSR and next subjected to DNA extraction and short tandem repeat (STR) typing. The results show no negative effect on the DNA and GSR results. The risk of DNA contamination during GSR analysis is addressed, showing that it is negligible. Our experiences in casework show that the approach can be successfully implemented.

AbstractThe aim of this study was to evaluate the maximum penetration depth (MPD) and penetration area (PA) of CaOH2 paste agitated by different methods and to measure the pH after performing these methods. Fifty‐five mandibular premolars were divided into control, GL and 4 experimental groups, GEC, GXP, GEDDY and GI (n = 11), where the paste was agitated with Easy Clean, XP‐endo Finisher, EDDY and Irrisonic, respectively. The canals were instrumented and irrigated with NaOCl. The paste was manipulated with propylene glycol and rhodamine B dye. Root sections were examined using confocal laser scanning microscopy. There was no difference between groups regarding PA (p > 0.05). At 5 mm, MPD was greater in GEC than in GL or GEDDY, and greater in GI than in GL (p < 0.05). At 2 mm, MPD was greater in GEC than in the other groups (p < 0.05). In conclusion, both Easy Clean and Irrisonic promoted deeper paste penetration and were associated with higher pH levels.

Published: September 2022

AbstractAimTo study the effects of the sodium‐glucose co‐transporter‐2 (SGLT2) inhibitor empagliflozin, the angiotensin receptor blocker (ARB) losartan, and their combination on blood pressure, while studying the mechanisms potentially involved.MethodsA total of 24 people with type 2 diabetes (T2D) (age: 66 ± 6 years; body mass index: 31.0 ± 3 kg/m2; estimated glomerular filtration rate: 90 ml/min/1.73m2) received a 1‐week treatment with empagliflozin 10 mg once daily, losartan 50 mg once daily, their combination, and placebo, in a randomized double‐blind crossover design, with 4‐week washout periods in between. Blood pressure, arterial stiffness, autonomic nervous system activity and plasma volume, extracellular fluid and serum albumin were assessed.ResultsVersus placebo (139 mmHg), empagliflozin reduced systolic blood pressure (SBP) by 8 mmHg (P = .001), losartan by 12 mmHg (P = .001) and empagliflozin + losartan by 15 mmHg (P < .001). Combination therapy had a larger SBP‐lowering effect versus empagliflozin monotherapy (‐7 [95% CI ‐12; ‐2] mmHg) and numerically larger effects versus losartan monotherapy (‐3 [‐8; 2] mmHg). Empagliflozin reduced sympathetic nervous system (SNS) activity, arterial stiffness and extracellular fluid, while increasing serum albumin. Losartan reduced SNS activity and arterial stiffness. Combination therapy induced volume contraction variables, together with a reduction in SNS activity and arterial stiffness.ConclusionIn people with T2D, SGLT2 inhibition in combination with an ARB had a larger blood pressure‐lowering effect versus placebo than either of the drugs alone. Our data further suggest that the mechanisms underlying these blood pressure reductions at least partially differ between these agents.
Variation between plant species in pollen digestion rates in the green lacewing Chrysoperla carnea

Published: September 2022

AbstractPollen are an important food source for numerous insects and may be used as natural markers in ecological studies. However, to make inferences about the movement rates of insects based on their gut contents, information on pollen digestion rates is needed. Here, we assessed how the consumption and digestion rates of pollen ingested by Chrysoperla carnea Stephens (Neuroptera: Chrysopidae) adults are influenced by plant species, temperature, and sex. We offered pollen of two insect‐pollinated plants – Acer pseudoplatanus L. (Sapindaceae) and Helianthus annuus L. (Asteraceae) – and two wind‐pollinated plants – Fraxinus excelsior L. (Oleaceae) and Quercus rubra L. (Fagaceae) – differing in size and protein content, to adult lacewings at two temperatures, 20 and 25 °C. After feeding, lacewings were allowed to digest pollen for up to 14 days, sampled at 10 time intervals. At each of these intervals, lacewings were frozen and the internal pollen were obtained through acetolysis and quantified under a light microscope. The number of pollen grains decreased exponentially over time and declined faster for Acer than for the other three plant species. The half‐life and the time at which 95% of the pollen grains were digested were lower for Acer than for the other plant species. Lacewings consumed more pollen grains from Acer and Quercus than from Fraxinus and Helianthus. Male lacewings consumed 30% fewer pollen grains than females, but without differences in their digestion rates. Our results show that lacewings consumed higher amounts of high‐protein pollen (Acer and Quercus) and that digestion rates differed among plant species, which could be linked to their structural characteristics. The variable digestion rates of pollen grains may influence the study of lacewing diet composition. Studies that make inferences about the pollen diet or movement ecology of lacewings by analysing their gut contents should account for species‐specific pollen digestion rates.

AbstractClimate change, disturbance, and plant invasion threaten grassland ecosystems, but their combined and interactive effects are poorly understood. Here, we examine how the combination of disturbance and plant invasion influences the sensitivity of mixed‐grass prairie to elevated carbon dioxide (eCO2) and warming. We established subplots of intact prairie and disturbed/invaded prairie within a free‐air CO2 enrichment (to 600 ppmv) by infrared warming (+1.5°C day, 3°C night) experiment and followed plant and soil responses for 5 years. Elevated CO2 initially led to moderate increases in biomass and plant diversity in both intact and disturbed/invaded prairie, but these effects shifted due to strong eCO2 responses of the invasive forb Centaurea diffusa. In the final 3 years, biomass responses to eCO2 in disturbed/invaded prairie were 10 times as large as those in intact prairie (+186% vs. +18%), resulting in reduced rather than increased plant diversity (−17% vs. +10%). At the same time, warming interacted with disturbance/invasion and year, reducing the rate of topsoil carbon recovery following disturbance. The strength of these interactions demonstrates the need to incorporate disturbance into predictions of climate change effects. In contrast to expectations from studies in intact ecosystems, eCO2 may threaten plant diversity in ecosystems subject to soil disturbance and invasion.

Published: September 2022

AbstractAimTo evaluate the association between periodontal disease and all‐cause mortality in a longitudinal cohort study over 50 years.Materials and MethodsParticipants (N = 1156) in the Veterans Affairs Dental Longitudinal Study, aged 25–85 years at enrollment in 1968, received comprehensive medical and oral exams approximately every 3 years through 2007. Periodontal status was defined using person‐level, mean whole‐mouth radiographic alveolar bone loss (ABL) scores using a five‐point Schei ruler, each unit representing 20% increments of ABL. Time‐varying Cox regression models estimated hazard ratios (HRs) for the association between continuous and categorical ABL and mortality, adjusting for covariates.ResultsEach one‐unit increase in mean ABL score was associated with a 14% increase in the hazard of mortality (adjusted HR = 1.14, 95% confidence interval [CI] 1.02, 1.27). When assessed categorically, HRs for average scores of 2 to <3 and 3 to ≤5 showed increasing associations with hazard of mortality, relative to 0 to <1 (adjusted HR = 1.17, 95% CI 0.94, 1.46; and HR = 1.65, 95% CI 0.94, 2.85, respectively). By contrast, we observed null associations for average scores of 1 to <2 relative to 0 to <1 (adjusted HR = 1.00, 95% CI 0.86, 1.17).ConclusionsTime‐varying periodontal status assessed using radiographic ABL was positively associated with all‐cause mortality even after confounder adjustment.

Published: September 2022

AbstractIn this work, to evaluate the role of acidic electrolyzed water (AEW) combined with vacuum precooling (VP) treatment in fresh goji preservation, the physicochemical properties and anti‐oxidation indexes of goji berries were compared between the AEW+VP‐treated and control (VP treatment) groups during storage at 4, 7, and 10°C. The results showed that AEW+VP could effectively inhibit the decrease in L* and a* values, reduce the respiratory rate, delay the loss of vitamin C content, and maintain higher total soluble solid (TSS) content. Compared to the control, AEW+VP‐treated goji maintained higher catalase (CAT), peroxidase (POD), and superoxide dismutase (SOD) activity. Therefore, AEW+VP treatment could effectively improve the storage quality and extend the shelf life of fresh goji berries.Practical applicationsAcidic electrolyzed water, a clean and environmentally friendly preservation technology, combined with vacuum precooling extended the shelf life of fresh goji berries while delaying the aging of goji berries at different storage temperatures. In this sense, AEW+VP had certain stability in enhancing the storage quality and extending the shelf life of goji berries, which can be regarded as an effective strategy for promoting the preservation of agricultural products.
Caribbeanist Anthropology and Minerva's Owl: Lessons Forgotten, Lessons Learned
Authors: Palmié Stephan 
Published: September 2022

AbstractThis essay presents a sketch of what a critical genealogy of the anthropology of the Caribbean might involve. After looking at the origins of anthropological interest in the region, I will focus on two case studies that, for better or worse, may be said to have had lasting diagnostic value for key epistemological orientations in Caribbeanist anthropology. I do so by examining M. G. Smith'sPlural Societymodel and Julian Stewart's Puerto Rico Project in their Cold War contexts to point out why these truly pathbreaking endeavors resulted in a vision of Caribbeanness that we may well want to rethink.

Improving Cavalieri volume estimation based on non‐equidistant planar sections: The trapezoidal estimator
Authors: Stehr Mads , Kiderlen Markus , Dorph‐Petersen Karl‐Anton 
Published: September 2022

AbstractThe Cavalieri estimator allows one to infer the volume of an object from area measurements in equidistant planar sections. It is known that applying this estimator in the non‐equidistant case may inflate the coefficient of error considerably. We therefore consider a newly introduced variant, the trapezoidal estimator, and make it available to practitioners. Its typical variance behaviour for natural objects is comparable to the equidistant case. We state this unbiased estimator, describe variance estimates and explain how the latter can be simplified under rather general but realistic models for the gaps between sections. Simulations and an application to a synthetic area function based on parietal lobes of 18 monkeys illustrate the new methods.
