Authors: De Sola Helena , Failde Inmaculada , Estalella Itziar , Maquibar Amaia 
Published: December 2022

AbstractIntroductionThe physical limitations experienced by people with chronic pain (CP) produce a greater need for care and assistance, most of which is provided by an informal caregiver (IC). Despite the key role ICs play in the everyday lives of individuals living with CP, knowledge about their experiences and needs is limited. We aimed to address this limitation by exploring the experiences of IC of people with CP.MethodsThis is a qualitative descriptive study using semistructured interviews. Participants were 12 ICs purposively chosen from the Unit of Pain at the University Hospital in Cádiz. Individual interviews were recorded, transcribed verbatim and analysed following thematic analysis.ResultsWe developed one overarching theme ‘Becoming a secondary actor of one's own life’ and three themes: 1. Key elements that shape a caregiver's experiences; 2. It's the hand that life dealt me; 3. The burden of being a caregiver and coping strategies.ConclusionsThis study's findings highlight how the CP impacts IC lives. Being an IC for a relative with CP became the most important role in the IC's life, to the point of casting a shadow over their own needs. Besides, participants felt not having other options but to keep going with that role. Yet, the context was essential in shaping the experiences as caregivers and the burden derived from caregiving. In this line, differences related to gender roles were found in the narratives of participant women and men.Patient or Public ContributionParticipants were purposively chosen from the Unit of Pain at the University Hospital ‘Puerta del Mar’ who attended the consultation accompanying their relatives. All the eligible participants were approached by the clinician. After this initial approach by the clinician, one of the researchers met the potential participant and they went to a quieter place in a clinical setting for the interview, before which the participant was shown a letter with more comprehensive information about the study and its aim. The participants were left alone to read and think carefully before giving their written informed consent. Participation was voluntary and the subjects received no financial contribution for their time.

AbstractAimTo evaluate the content and quality of YouTube™️ videos about pit and fissure sealant application.MethodsThe keywords “fissure sealant” and “pit and fissure sealant” were used to search for YouTube™️ content, after the first 300 video results were evaluated. Considering the exclusion criteria, a final sample of 110 videos was obtained, which were analysed in terms of the number of views, duration in minutes, the number of subscribers, the total number of “likes” and “dislikes,” the number of comments, days elapsed since upload, the interaction index, and the viewing rate. Global Quality Scoring (GQS) index was also used as a second evaluation method and videos were classified according to the quality of information that it contained as follows: good, moderate, and poor.ResultsMost of the videos were uploaded by dentists/specialists. Among them, 14 videos had good quality, 63 were of moderate quality, and 33 were poor informative. The good‐quality videos had statistically significantly higher interaction index and viewing rates, and the majority of the videos had a GQS‐2 score. The viewing rate was positively correlated with duration and the number of views, “likes” and “dislikes,” comments, and subscribers.ConclusionThere is considerable variability in the scientific accuracy and quality of health information on the Internet. While there are videos that provide sufficient health information, there are also videos that contain insufficient or even incorrect information. Dental care professionals should be aware of misinformation found on YouTube™️ and ensure that patients always have access to accurate and reliable information.
Does robotization affect job quality? Evidence from European regional labor markets
Authors: Antón José‐Ignacio , Fernández‐Macías Enrique , Winter‐Ebmer Rudolf 
Published: December 2022

AbstractWhereas there are recent papers on the effect of robot adoption on employment and wages, there is no evidence on how robots affect non‐monetary working conditions. We explore the impact of robot adoption on several domains of non‐monetary working conditions in Europe over the period 1995–2005 combining information from the World Robotics Survey and the European Working Conditions Survey. In order to deal with the possible endogeneity of robot deployment, we employ an instrumental variables strategy, using the robot exposure by sector in other developed countries as an instrument. Our results indicate that robotization has a negative impact on the quality of work in the dimension of work intensity and no relevant impact on the domains of physical environment or skills and discretion.

Published: December 2022

AbstractA triple‐layer matrix Collagen/Silk fibroin/Bioactive glass composited Nanofibrous was fabricated by linking electrospinning and freeze‐drying systems, this typical three layered composite with a nanofibrous fragment as the key (top) layer, middle portion as inferior, and a spongy porous fragment as the third (bottom) deposit to develop the synergistic effect of composite materials resultant to physical and biological performances. Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy (FTIR) and scanning electron microscopy were used to assess the final material's physicochemical properties (SEM). The triple‐layer matrix had a nanofibrous and porous structure, which has qualities including high porosity, swelling, and stability, which are important in soft‐tissue engineering. NIH 3 T3 fibroblast and humanoid keratinocyte (HaCaT) cell lines were also used to investigate the matrix's in vitro biological and fluorescent capabilities, which showed excellent cell adherence and proliferation across the composite layers. The synergistic arrangement of nanofibrous substantial deposition onto collagenous with silk fibroin candidates has therefore proven effective in the construction of a tri‐layer matrix for skin‐tissue‐engineering applications.

AbstractPlatelet‐rich plasma (PRP) has attracted attention because of its potential to accelerate the wound healing process. However, resources for evaluating research trends in the treatment of wounds with PRP were limited. In this study, we aimed to make a bibliometric analysis of the literature related to PRP in the treatment of wounds and explore the research status, hotspots and frontiers in this field in recent 20 years. Studies about PRP treatment for wounds from 2002 to 2021 were retrieved from the Science Citation Index Expanded (SCI‐E) of Web of Science (WOS) database. Visualisation softwares such as VOSviewer and SCImago Graphica, and CiteSpace were used to analyse the research trends and features. A total of 1748 studies were identified in the SCI‐Expanded from 2002 to 2021. The number of publications on PRP in the treatment of wounds has shown an increasing trend, from 6 (in 2002) to 228 (in 2021). The papers published in the United States have led in times cited (14637) and H‐index (63). Though Italy was slightly lower than China in the number of publications, the H‐index and average cited (47, 28.45) were higher than that of China (38, 27.01). The strongest keyword was “fibrin” (strength = 13.07), and the longest burst duration keyword was “thrombin” (began in 2002 and ended in 2014). The largest 10 co‐citation clusters are as follows: endothelial cell proliferation (#0), regenerative medicine‐associated treatment (#1), diabetic wound healing (#2), autologous derived (#3), platelet‐rich fibrin (#4), tissue engineering (#5), regenerative potential (#6), clinical randomised trial (#7), histologic observation (#8), and wound bacteria (#9). The United States has made the most outstanding contribution in this field. Chinese researchers need to enhance the quality of publications further. Wound Repair Regen. is the most noteworthy journal. The mechanism of growth factors of PRP, combination therapy, preparation of PRP, and related clinical trials may be topics that need attention.

AbstractMultifunctional materials have received considerable attention as they could integrate different functional components in one‐single platform. In this study, novel chitosan/Fe3O4/TiO2@TiO2 nanowire (NW) microspheres having extracellular matrix‐like fibrous surface and photothermal antibacterial property were synthesized through in situ hydrothermal growth of TiO2 NWs on chitosan/Fe3O4/TiO2 microspheres. It is found that the microspheres were spherical in morphology with a diameter of 100–300 µm and exhibited a hierarchical and nanofibrous feature. Their surface was mainly constructed by numerous TiO2 NWs with a diameter of 20– 30nm. In vitro biological evaluation indicates that the chitosan/Fe3O4/TiO2@TiO2 NW microspheres significantly enhanced attachment and proliferation of human umbilical vein endothelial cells compared with chitosan/Fe3O4/TiO2 nanocomposite microspheres due to the presence of nanofibrous surface. Moreover, the microspheres showed photothermal antibacterial property to inhibit the growth of bacteria due to the presence of Fe3O4 component.

AbstractAimLimb reduction is a dramatic evolutionary transition, yet whether it is achieved in similar trajectories across clades, and its environmental drivers, remain unclear. We investigate the macroevolutionary and biogeographical patterns of limb reduction in skinks, where limb reduction occurred more often than in any other tetrapod clade, and test their associations with substrate categories using a global database. We test for habitat associations of body shapes in a group of Australian skinks using quantitative habitat data.LocationGlobal (Scincidae), Australia (Sphenomorphinae).TaxonSkinks, Australian Sphenomorphinae.Materials and MethodsWe use morphological data to explore the patterns of limb reduction in the world's skinks, investigating how body proportions differ across skink clades and subfamilies. We examine the relationships between body shape and substrate (coarsely classified). Further, we investigate the relationships between body shape and high‐resolution soil and climate properties extracted from each species' distribution for Australian sphenomorphines.ResultsRelationships between limb lengths and trunk elongation show idiosyncratic patterns across skink clades. Presacral vertebrae numbers positively correlate with trunk elongation in all taxa, except Glaphyromorphus. Skinks from sandy habitats show greater disparity between forelimb and hindlimb lengths than all other substrate categories. In sphenomorphines, shorter limbs and elongated trunks correlate with colder, more humid microhabitats and richer soils; high limb disparity correlates with hot, arid microhabitats and sandy, poor substrates.Main ConclusionsThe evolutionary trajectories of limb reduction in skinks are clade‐specific and sometimes unique. Selection for specific limb proportions and body sizes in limb‐reduced forms changes across substrates. On poor, sandy substrates of arid environments, body shapes with longer hindlimbs may be more efficient for locomotion in a granular fluid (i.e. sand) and exploit the air–substrate interface than complete limblessness. On richer, more humid substrates, such morphology is rare, indicating that navigating cluttered substrates selects for more equal and shorter limb lengths.
Microencapsulation of fruit juices: Techniques, properties, application of fruit powder
Authors: M Mahalakshmi , Meghwal Murlidhar 
Published: December 2022

AbstractFruits are rich in bioactive components that have many health benefits. However, they are unstable due to various environmental factors. Thus, the encapsulation technique appeared to be effective for sensitive bioactive compounds and targeted storage delivery systems. Various methods are used for the encapsulation of bioactive components. Drying is one of the methods used for encapsulating bioactive components in liquid form using suitable coating material discussed in the review. Freeze‐drying, spray drying, and spray cooling are the various encapsulation techniques used to convert fruit juices into powder. Spray drying is one of the commercially used encapsulation techniques for fruit juices in the food industry due to its low‐cost process. Freeze‐drying is the advantageous drying method used for encapsulating heat‐sensitive bioactive compounds such as carotenoids, anthocyanins, phenolics, and flavonoids present in fruit juices. Fruit powder has more benefits than it can be added to all foods formulated.Practical ApplicationsThis comprehensive review gives on fruit powder encapsulation will be useful in the understanding of techniques, and properties to consider for production. Microencapsulation helps in giving protection to fruit powder against various food processing applications by controlling the encapsulated structuring way, the time needed to release nutrients, and the dose of release. Microencapsulated fruit powder has demanded in the industry due to its application in various food formulations. This review article attempts to comprehensively summarize the different methods of encapsulation techniques, powder properties, and their application in foods.
Shaken Baby Syndrome (SBS) or Pediatric Abusive Head Trauma from Shaking: Guidelines for Interventions During the Perinatal Period from the French National College Of Midwives
Authors: Laurent‐Vannier Anne 
Published: December 2022

AbstractShaken baby syndrome is the most severe head injury in children. Shaking is an extremely violent gesture, often repeated. The children affected are generally less than a year old, in 2/3 of cases, less than 6 months old. More than 10% of them die, and more than three‐quarters of the survivors have long‐term effects. Prevention is therefore essential. When a parent (or any person) is strongly upset by an infant's uncalmable crying, the best thing for them to do is to lay the child down in a supine position in his or her bed, leave the room, and then ask for help.

IntroductionThe Birth Center model of care is a health care delivery innovation in its fourth decade of demonstration across the United States. The purpose of this research was to evaluate the model's potential for decreasing poverty‐related health disparities among childbearing families.MethodsBetween 2013 and 2017, 26,259 childbearing people received care within the 45 Center for Medicare and Medicaid Innovation Strong Start birth center sites. Secondary analysis of the prospective American Association of Birth Centers Perinatal Data Registry was conducted. Descriptive statistics described sociobehavioral, medical risk factors, and core clinical outcomes to inform the logistic regression model. Privately insured consumers were independently compared with 2 subgroups of Medicaid beneficiaries: Strong Start enrollees (midwifery‐led care with peer counselors) and non‐Strong Start Medicaid beneficiaries (midwifery‐led care without peer counselors).ResultsAfter controlling for medical risk factors, Strong Start Medicaid beneficiaries achieved similar outcomes to privately insured consumers with no significant differences in maternal or newborn outcomes between groups. Perinatal outcomes included induction of labor (adjusted odds ratio [aOR], 0.86; 95% CI 0.61‐1.13), epidural analgesia use (aOR, 1.00; 95% CI, 0.68‐1.48), cesarean birth (aOR, 1.16; 95% CI, 0.87‐1.53), exclusive breastfeeding on discharge (aOR, 1.11; 95% CI, 0.48‐2.56), low Apgar score at 5 minutes (aOR, 1.23; 95% CI, 0.86‐1.83), low birth weight (aOR, 1.12; 95% CI, 0.77‐1.64), and antepartum transfer of care after the first prenatal appointment (aOR, 1.53; 95% CI, 0.97‐2.40). Medicaid beneficiaries who were not enrolled in the Strong Start midwifery‐led, peer counselor program demonstrated similar results except for having higher epidural analgesia use (aOR, 1.30; 95% CI, 1.10‐1.53) and significantly lower exclusive breastfeeding on discharge (aOR, 0.57; 95% CI, 0.40‐0.81) than their privately insured counterparts.DiscussionThe midwifery‐led birth center model of care complemented by peer counselors demonstrated a pathway to achieve health equity.

AbstractIntroductionThe Republic of Korea's response to Coronavirus disease 2019 was divided before and after global vaccine development at the end of 2020. It also varied according to the size of confirmed patients in the non‐pharmaceutical intervention. Therefore, this study aimed to analyze the contribution of frontline nurses to the policy and law revision on infectious diseases and suggest health and nursing policies for emerging infectious diseases in the future.DesignThis case evaluation study analyzed the significant policy decisions that nurses' roles brought on changes in the infectious disease response system in the Republic of Korea and applying the health system model and those capacities on resilience under emerging infectious diseases.MethodsObjective data that contributed directly to the revision of infectious disease‐related Acts and policies in 2020 were collected and analyzed through literature search and information disclosure claims from the first to third waves of Coronavirus disease 2019 in one city.ResultsWith the rapid outbreak of COVID‐19 confirmed cases at the end of February 2020, a pan‐government support group was formed and dispatched to D City. In addition, central quarantine officials worked with local quarantine officials to share real‐time situations and find out on‐site difficulties and support requests. As a result, inquiry of opinions to working staff before changing the “response guidelines to Coronavirus disease 2019” was reflected in major contents on the revision of “policy on infectious disease response” and “Infectious Disease Prevention and Management Act.” With the establishment of an epidemiological investigation team in September 2020, the number of new nurses in 17 cities and provinces increased by 19.1% compared to the previous year, the most significant increase compared to doctors (−2.3), dentists (−1.6), and health workers (3.7).ConclusionThe experience of responding to Coronavirus was a reminder that the curriculum needed to be improved so that nurses will be recognized to have leadership competencies and as field experts regarding social determinants of health for population groups in the decision‐making process. In the initial COVID‐19 response process, nurses showed excellence in analyzing patient interviews and various information as field epidemiological investigation response personnel, making comprehensive judgments, and solving problems in cooperation with related agencies and severe patients' bedside nursing care. Continuous primary care and management of infectious diseases for the vulnerable should be prepared on an ongoing basis to assure the quality of care.Clinical RelevanceAction strategies for developing leadership to enable nurses to have participated in the social determinants of health and the nursing policy formation for health equity should be applied in nursing education and practice, and global monitoring efforts were accelerated.
Toward Stable Civil‐Military Relations in Sudan
Authors: D'Agoôt Majak 
Published: December 2022

AbstractThe most dramatic of military interventions is the coup d’état, and the cyclical melodrama of putsches in Sudan has placed the country on a violent path. Perhaps a major reason for an irascible officer corps to plot coups is the lack of an effective contract binding the armed forces and society. This is keeping a chokehold on the country's progress, limiting its potential. In search of a better answer, revisiting the past cycle of military interventions is critically important. The recurrent mass actions and fleeting democratic transitions have exposed the bungling civilian leadership and defined the sociology in which Sudan's civil‐military alchemy has fermented or gone bust. However, if the country had any concord among the military, the political leadership, and society, the risk of domestic military interventions would have been reduced, limiting the scourge of the power grab.
Fictional domains
Authors: Gregory Dominic 
Published: December 2022

AbstractQuantifiers frequently figure in works of fiction. But occurrences of quantificational expressions within fictions seem no more inevitably to be associated with real domains than uses of names within fictions seem inevitably to be associated with existing referents. The paper outlines some philosophical puzzles resulting from this apparent lack of associated domains, puzzles that are broadly analogous to more familiar ones raised by the apparently nonreferential nature of many fictional names. The paper argues, in the light of an important disanalogy between quantifiers and names, that the quantificational puzzles are substantive, in that they cannot be resolved merely by appealing to the possibility of empty domains. It then argues that, despite the cited parallels between occurrences of quantifiers and names within fictions, promising treatments of fictional names do not always straightforwardly generalise to provide accounts of the quantificational phenomena: the quantificational puzzles are therefore not only substantive but also distinctive. The paper provides further testament to the depth and interest of the problems involving content that are generated by fiction, by identifying a very wide range of previously neglected cases, while also helping to situate within a broader context the notoriously hard philosophical challenges posed by fictional names.
