Published: January 2022

SUMMARY

Goal:
We examined the relationship of nine hospital environment measures (room cleanliness, room quietness, food temperature, food variety, mattress comfort, room temperature, room privacy, hospital signage, adequate parking) to two patient outcome measures (likelihood of recommending hospital, overall satisfaction with hospital) by type of services received (medical, obstetric, surgical) at all military medical treatment facilities globally. Our aim was to understand the impact of various hospital environment measures on the patient experience.

Methods:
We analyzed six logistic regression models, one for each patient satisfaction measure and each service line (medical, obstetric, surgical). The patient characteristic variables were gender, patient age group, and beneficiary category (active duty, active duty family member, retiree, retiree dependents). Results are based on 20,534 completed surveys representing inpatient care delivered October 2019 to March 2020. Data are from the Military Health System TRICARE Inpatient Satisfaction Survey, which is based on the Hospital Consumer Assessment of Healthcare Providers and Systems survey with additional Department of Defense questions.

Principal Findings:
Across all models, nearly all hospital environment measures were found to be significantly related to patient satisfaction outcomes, aside from food variety in two models and room privacy and temperature in one model. The strongest environment impact factor was room cleanliness for both outcomes with odds ratios ranging from 2.1 to 2.7, p < .01 in all cases. The order of impact for the other eight environment factors varied across service lines with some playing dominant roles dependent on the type of care being received. Significant odds ratios (p < .05) ranged from 1.3 to 2.0 for room quietness, 1.5 to 1.9 for hospital signage, 1.3 to 1.5 for both food variety and food temperature, 1.3 to 1.8 for mattress comfort, 1.3 to 1.6 for room temperature, and 1.3 to 1.8 for adequate parking. Hospital environment measures represented a breadth of the patient experience and were significantly related to a patient’s overall satisfaction and likelihood to recommend military inpatient facilities.

Applications to Practice:
Healthcare leaders continuously focus on improving the overall patient experience. Fostering a positive experience includes many factors such as provider and nurse interactions and communications with patients. Moreover, the hospital environment should not be overlooked as also having an impact on patient satisfaction, and hospital leaders—both military and civilian—should continue to emphasize hospital amenities as well.
The Dura Split Technique in the Treatment of Craniosynostosis: Is It Still an Option?
Authors: Ripatti Liisi , Blair Richard , Serlo Willy 
Published: January 2022

Background:
The aim of this study was to report the outcome and the complications for patients operated on for craniosynostosis using the dura split technique. Specifically, the authors aimed to evaluate the safety of this technique, which is currently not in use, and to determine whether it is still useable.

Methods:
The data was collected from the hospital patient records of all children surgically treated for craniosynostosis using the dura split technique in Turku University Hospital during the period 1975 to 2015. The data was analyzed to determine the clinical and radiological outcomes of the surgical procedure, the need for reoperations, and the rate of complications.

Results:
During the study period, the dura split technique was used in the surgery of 65 patients. The outcome was either good or acceptable in most patients and reoperation was needed in only 2 patients (3.1%). Surgical complications included significant blood loss (26.2%), lesions on the inner layer of the dura (21.5%), leakage of cerebrospinal fluid (13.8%), and persistent bone defects (15.4% on palpation and 63.1% radiologically).

Conclusions:
Although the outcome of surgery for craniosynostosis using the dura split technique was mostly acceptable and the need for reoperations rare, the technique cannot, however, be recommended in the future due to high rates of bone defects, frequent problems with lesions on the inner layer of the dura, and consequent perioperative leakage of cerebrospinal fluid.

Published: January 2022

Background.
The clinical effectiveness of vaccines against severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus 2 (SARS-CoV-2) in immunosuppressed solid organ and islet transplant (SOT) recipients is unclear.

Methods.
We linked 4 national registries to retrospectively identify laboratory-confirmed SARS-CoV-2 infections and deaths within 28 d in England between September 1, 2020, and August 31, 2021, comparing unvaccinated adult SOT recipients and those who had received 2 doses of ChAdOx1-S or BNT162b2 vaccine. Infection incidence rate ratios were adjusted for recipient demographics and calendar month using a negative binomial regression model, with 95% confidence intervals. Case fatality rate ratios were adjusted using a Cox proportional hazards model to generate hazard ratio (95% confidence interval).

Results.
On August 31, 2021, it was found that 3080 (7.1%) were unvaccinated, 1141 (2.6%) had 1 vaccine dose, and 39 260 (90.3%) had 2 vaccine doses. There were 4147 SARS-CoV-2 infections and 407 deaths (unadjusted case fatality rate 9.8%). The risk-adjusted infection incidence rate ratio was 1.29 (1.03-1.61), implying that vaccination was not associated with reduction in risk of testing positive for SARS-CoV-2 RNA. Overall, the hazard ratio for death within 28 d of SARS-CoV-2 infection was 0.80 (0.63-1.00), a 20% reduction in risk of death in vaccinated patients (P = 0.05). Two doses of ChAdOx1-S were associated with a significantly reduced risk of death (hazard ratio, 0.69; 0.52-0.92), whereas vaccination with BNT162b2 was not (0.97; 0.71-1.31).

Conclusions.
Vaccination of SOT recipients confers some protection against SARS-CoV-2–related mortality, but this protection is inferior to that achieved in the general population. SOT recipients require additional protective measures, including further vaccine doses, antiviral drugs, and nonpharmaceutical interventions.

AbstractPhotosystem I (PSI) contributes to light-conversion reactions; however, its oligomerization state is variable among photosynthetic organisms. Herein we present a 3.8-Å resolution cryo-electron microscopic structure of tetrameric PSI isolated from a glaucophyte alga Cyanophora paradoxa. The PSI tetramer is organized in a dimer of dimers form with a C2 symmetry. Different from cyanobacterial PSI tetramer, two of the four monomers are rotated around 90°, resulting in a totally different pattern of monomer-monomer interactions. Excitation-energy transfer among chlorophylls differs significantly between Cyanophora and cyanobacterial PSI tetramers. These structural and spectroscopic features reveal characteristic interactions and energy transfer in the Cyanophora PSI tetramer, thus offering an attractive idea for the changes of PSI from prokaryotes to eukaryotes.
Hbxip (Lamtor5) is essential for embryogenesis and regulates embryonic stem cell differentiation through activating mTORC1

Published: January 2022

SummaryHbxip, also named Lamtor5, has been well characterized as a transcriptional coactivator in various cancers. However, the role of Hbxip in normal development remains unexplored. Here, we demonstrated that homozygous knockout of Hbxip leads to embryonic lethality, with retarded growth around E7.5. Using Hbxip knockout embryonic stem cells (ESCs), we showed that depletion of Hbxip compromises the self-renewal of ESCs, with reduced expression of pluripotency genes, reduced cell proliferation, and decreased colony forming capacity. In addition, Hbxip-/- ESCs are defective in differentiation, particularly ectodermal and mesodermal differentiation. Consistently, Hbxip-/- epiblast fails to differentiate properly, indicated by sustained expression of Oct4 in E8.5 Hbxip-/- epiblast. Mechanistically, in ESCs, Hbxip interacts with other components of the Ragulator complex, which is required for mTORC1 activation by amino acids. Importantly, ESCs depleted of Ragulator subunits, Lamtor3 or Lamtor4, display differentiation defects similar to those of Hbxip-/- ESCs. Moreover, Hbxip-/-, p14-/-, and p18-/- mice, lacking subunits of the Ragulator complex, also share similar phenotypes, embryonic lethality and retarded growth around E7-8. Thus, we conclude that Hbxip plays a pivotal role in the development and differentiation of the epiblast, as well as the self-renewal and differentiation of ESCs, through activating mTORC1 signaling.
A Scribble/Cdep/Rac pathway regulates follower cell crawling and cluster cohesion during collective border cell migration

Published: January 2022

SummaryCollective cell movements drive normal development and metastasis.Drosophilaborder cells move as a cluster of 6-10 cells, where the role of the Rac GTPase in migration was first established. Rac stimulates leading edge protrusions in most migratory cells. Upstream Rac regulators in leading border cell protrusions have been identified; however the regulation and function of Rac in follower cells is unknown. Here we show that Rac is required in all cells of the cluster and promotes follower cell motility. We identify a Rac guanine nucleotide exchange factor, Cdep, that also regulates follower cell movement and cluster cohesion. The tumor suppressors Scribble, Discs Large, and Lethal Giant Larva localize Cdep basolaterally and share phenotypes with Cdep. Relocalization of Cdep::GFP partially rescues Scrib knockdown, suggesting that Cdep is a major downstream effector of basolateral proteins. Thus, a Scrib/Cdep/Rac pathway promotes cell crawling and coordinated, collective migrationin vivo.
Fast and numerically stable Mie solution of EM near field and absorption for stratified spheres
Authors: Csernyava Olivér , Horváth Bálint Péter , Badics Zsolt , Bilicz Sándor 
Published: January 2022

Purpose
The purpose of this paper is the development of an analytic computational model for electromagnetic (EM) wave scattering from spherical objects. The main application field is the modeling of electrically large objects, where the standard numerical techniques require huge computational resources. An example is full-wave modeling of the human head in the millimeter-wave regime. Hence, an approximate model or analytical approach is used.

Design/methodology/approach
The Mie–Debye theorem is used for calculating the EM scattering from a layered dielectric sphere. The evaluation of the analytical expressions involved in the infinite sum has several numerical instabilities, which makes the precise calculation a challenge. The model is validated through an application example with comparing results to numerical calculations (finite element method). The human head model is used with the approximation of a two-layer sphere, where the brain tissues and the cranial bones are represented by homogeneous materials.

Findings
A significant improvement is introduced for the stable calculation of the Mie coefficients of a core–shell stratified sphere illuminated by a linearly polarized EM plane wave. Using this technique, a semi-analytical expression is derived for the power loss in the sphere resulting in quick and accurate calculations.

Originality/value
Two methods are introduced in this work with the main objective of estimating the final precision of the results. This is an important aspect for potentially unstable calculations, and the existing implementations have not included this feature so far.
The impact of cross-border knowledge management on internationalizing Renminbi: lessons from the belt and road initiative
Authors: Yu Bin , Liu Huimin , Cheng Huifang , Gao Peng 
Published: January 2022

Purpose
In the process of Renminbi (RMB) internationalization, the heterogeneity and complexity in knowledge under the multicultural contexts have been considered as important factors that can have profound impacts on the cross-border flow of the RMB currency. Moreover, COVID-19, an exogenous shock, also triggers more in-depth reflection on the relationship between cross-border knowledge management and the financial risk governance. In addition, the needs to effectively respond to global risks and crises prompt the necessity in systematically establishing an effective cross-border knowledge management mechanism and innovatively solidifying the knowledge bases needed for the further internationalization of the RMB.

Design/methodology/approach
Based on the analysis on the current status of the RMB internationalization, this paper qualitatively explores some major challenges and difficulties encountered in the process of RMB internationalization from the perspectives of knowledge management and cross-cultural theories. To effectively mitigate these challenges and difficulties, discussions and recommendations centered on three main aspects: cross-cultural management; cognition; and innovation for the further development of the RMB internationalization are also presented in this paper.

Findings
Based on the analysis on the cross-border knowledge management and cross-cultural perspectives, this paper identifies three major challenges and difficulties that the RMB internationalization is encountering, including: cultural heterogeneity and its adverse impacts on the communication amongst economic entities; the existence of knowledge iceberg; and the difficulty it presents to cognition and financial innovation. Meanwhile, the authors also present recommendations on the development of the cross-border knowledge management mechanism for furthering the progress of internationalizing the RMB currency.

Research limitations/implications
From the perspective of cross-border knowledge management, this study not only elaborates on the recommendations aimed at further promoting the RMB internationalization but also provides reference and guidance for the state, central banks and commercial banks to play better roles in furthering the RMB internationalization.

Originality/value
This paper creatively integrates the micro knowledge management into the macro process of RMB internationalization, thoroughly discusses two main challenges and difficulties encountered in the process of RMB internationalization from the unique perspective of cross-border knowledge management under the multicultural contexts and provides relevant recommendations for RMB’s further internationalization. This study also enriches the exploration of knowledge management outcome variables and further expands the research field of knowledge management.

Published: January 2022

Purpose
This study involves a content analysis of research published from 2000 to 2018 about American Indian students with the principal aim to identify investigations addressing the supportive factors that contribute to student academic success. Secondary aims involved better understanding the parameters of the investigations, such as sample tribal affiliations and journal outlets.

Design/methodology/approach
Out of 6,341 total articles published in PsycARTICLES, PsycINFO and Education Resources Information Center over the time period, 86 articles covering the pre-school to college age years were identified, almost evenly distributed between pre-college (n = 42, 48.8%); and college age samples (n = 44, 51.2%). The 86 articles account for a mere 1.4% of all published articles over the 19 year period. A community cultural wealth approach (Yosso, 2005) was used as a framework for understanding the myriad of strengths students bring to their school experiences and was used as a lens for interpreting the study findings.

Findings
When disaggregated, the most common supports for pre-college age youth were culturally-sensitive schooling, personal/intrinsic qualities along with family and social support. For college age students, the most common supports were university personnel, community-based supports and student intrinsic factors. Further results, study limitations and implications are discussed.

Cotton treatment with methyl jasmonate at different growth stages reduces the population of sucking insect pests and marginally increases their associated predators
Authors: Tonğa Adil , Şeker Kadri , Çakmak Suna , Temiz Mefhar Gültekin , Bayram Ahmet 
Published: January 2022

AbstractMethyl jasmonate (MEJA), a volatile organic compound, can induce plant defenses, thereby contributing to repelling insect pests and attracting their natural enemies. In 2013 and 2014, the influence of three exogenous MEJA doses (0.88, 1.76, and 3.55 mM) under field conditions was investigated on the abundance of the cotton pests Thrips tabaci Lindeman (Thysanoptera: Thripidae), Empoasca decipiens Paoli (Hemiptera: Cicadellidae), and Aphis gossypii Glover (Hemiptera: Aphididae), as well as of the predators Coccinella septempunctata L. (Coleoptera: Coccinellidae), Aeolothrips intermedius Bagnall (Thysanoptera: Aeolothripidae), and Chrysoperla carnea (Stephens) (Neuroptera: Chrysopidae). The MEJA treatments were performed at three cotton plant growth stages: 6–8 true leaves‐early squaring, square bud, and boll forming. The abundances of A. gossypii, T. tabaci, and E. decipiens varied considerably among strata and growing seasons and between experimental years, but overall they were lower on MEJA‐treated cotton plants than on control plants. The population density of A. intermedius and C. septempunctata did not differ between MEJA‐treated and control plants, whereas the intermediate MEJA concentration had an attractive but inconsistent effect on C. carnea. Most of the insect pests and predators showed a preference for specific plant strata. The abundance of T. tabaci was higher in earlier plant growth stages, whereas A. gossypii and E. decipiens were more abundant in later growth stages. Our results demonstrate the deterrent effects of MEJA‐induced cotton plants on sucking pests and suggest that MEJA could be exploited as a non‐toxic pest management tool. Possible mechanisms underlying the effectiveness of MEJA‐mediated cotton plant responses to insect pests are discussed.
At the Edge of the Sensible: Cultivating Doubt in Radically Engaged Anthropology and Spirituality
Authors: Smith Aja 
Published: January 2022

AbstractTransformative experiences have long been a central interest for anthropologists studying spiritual phenomena. During fieldwork, many ethnographers have themselves undergone such experiences, caused by and fueling their confidence in radical participation as the soundest approach to understanding spiritual phenomena. These anthropologists inadvertently find themselves faced with the question of the ontological status of such phenomena, responses to which range from embracing them as ontologically real to steering clear of judgment. Arguments pertaining to the authority of the anthropologist follow a similar path, belief either framed as a precondition for understanding such matters or as undermining analytical validity. This article outlines the third position. Based on radically engaged fieldwork conducted with people dedicated to spiritual and mindfulness–meditation training in Denmark, I explore doubt as a transformative experience. Doubt, I hold, destabilizes both ontological certainty and the alleged analytical invalidity of engaged anthropology, making doubt, I argue, a valuable anthropological disposition. [Denmark mindfulness–meditation epistemologyand methodology]Danish abstract Transformerende oplevelser har længe været et centralt emne for antropologer, der studerer spirituelle fænomener. Som radikalt‐deltagende oplever mange af disse antropologer selv at blive transformeret i løbet af feltarbejdet, hvilket forstærker deres vurdering af radikal‐deltagelse som den mest egnede måde at undersøge spirituelle fænomener på. Samtidig rejser oplevelserne spørgsmålet om spirituelle fænomeners ontologiske status, og her deler vandene sig mellem dem, der omfavner fænomenerne som ontologiske sandheder, og dem, der afviger fra at afgive vurdering. Denne splittelse forplantes ligeledes i diskussioner om antropologisk autoritet, hvor tro enten ses som afgørende for at forstå spirituelle fænomener eller som underminerende for analytisk validitet. Denne artikel skitserer en tredje position. Baseret på radikalt‐deltagende feltarbejde blandt mennesker i Danmark, som er dedikerede til spirituel og mindfulness‐meditations træning, udforsker jeg tvivl som en transformerende oplevelse, der destabiliserer både ontologisk vished og den angivelige analytiske invaliditet, og argumenterer for tvivl som værende en værdifuld antropologisk disposition.
Self‐directed learning with anime: A case of Japanese language and culture
Authors: Shintaku Kayo 
Published: January 2022

AbstractDue to its accessibility and popularity, anime has been explored as a motivation for learning Japanese and as a pedagogical tool linking Japanese‐as‐a‐foreign‐language (JFL) literacy practices inside and outside of the classroom. However, JFL learners' actual practices in anime‐mediated self‐directed learning have not been fully investigated. Thus, this study examined JFL learners' digital literacy practices in their self‐directed learning via anime. The study's anime focus group (AFG) (n = 6) engaged in activities with three commercial anime titles throughout 10 consecutive weeks. Additionally, JFL learners from a Japanese language program (n = 191) and students from an anime class (n = 79) completed surveys, which illustrated the presence of anime in their lives, their purposes for learning Japanese, and exposure to Japanese in their literacy lifeworlds. The AFG's reflections also demonstrated anime's potential in digital literacies to present diverse linguistic and cultural information and links between in‐class and outside‐of‐classroom learning.
