Fungicides for Dutch Elm Disease: Comparative Evaluation of Commercial Products
Authors: Lanier Gerald N. 
Published: July 2022

AbstractThe commercial fungicide formulations, Arbotect 20-S, Phyton-27, Fungi-Sol, and biological product, Binab-T, were injected into juvenile (ave. 17.5 cm diameter) American elms prior to (prophylactic) or after (therapeutic) the trees were inoculated with the Dutch elm disease (DED)-causing fungus,Ceratocystis ulmi. Samples of all trees were cultured to verify establishment ofC. ulmiand DED symptom development was monitored for two growing seasons. At the end of the second growing season none of 20 Arbotect-injected trees (prophylactic and therapeutic) displayed DED symptoms. Fungi-Sol and Binab prophylactic groups (5 and 10 trees, respectively) contained significantly fewer diseased trees than the control group, but no treatment, other than Arbotect, showed significant therapeutic effect. Sapwood damage associated with each of the treatments was greater than that associated with injection of water. Discolored sapwood was localized around injection sites in Fungi-Sol and Binab-treated trees, but extended a maximum of 2 m and 6 m, respectively, above the points of injection of Arbotect and Phyton. Injection holes were overgrown and closed for all water, Fungi-Sol, and Binab treatments while one Arbotect and five Phyton-treated elms had injection holes that remained open and were weeping with bacterial slime flux. Two trees treated with a high dosage of Phyton had an aggregate of five open lesions associated with injection holes.

Relationships Among Sensory Processing Behaviors, Executive Function, and Temperament Characteristics for Effortful Control in School-Age Children
Authors: Diamant Rachel 
Published: July 2022

Abstract
Date Presented 04/02/2022
A descriptive correlation study examined relationships among temperament effortful control, executive function, and sensory processing behavior. Outcomes from three standardized questionnaires regarding children between ages 7 year, 0 months, and 10 years, 11 months, indicated that statistically significant associations between typical sensory responses were related to abilities for executive function and effortful control, whereas sensory reactivity was related to decreased abilities for executive function and effortful control.

Influence of Electronic Communication Devices, Assistive Technologies, and Internet Use on Social Integration of Individuals Living With Tetraplegia
Authors: Kubiak Stephanie , Sklar Elliot 
Published: July 2022

Abstract
Date Presented 04/02/2022
The aim is to examine whether electronic communication devices (ECDs), assistive technology (AT), and Internet use increases the odds of high social integration (HSI) after tetraplegia injury. A binary logistic regression determined the use of ECD, AT, and Internet increased the odds of HSI by 300% after tetraplegia injury. Prioritizing ECD independence in this population by evaluating and addressing AT needs could significantly improve access to socialization opportunities and participation.

Role Perception of OTs in Education Systems as Affected by Self-Efficacy and Employability Skills
Authors: Fogel Yael , Lamash Liron 
Published: July 2022

Abstract
Date Presented 04/01/2022
This research examines an integrated conceptual model wherein self-efficacy explains OTs’ role perception with employability skills as mediator. Role perception is a vital component of understanding individuals’ concatenation in the workplace and combined expression of their psychological and socio-organizational dimensions. Thus, we assume high self-efficacy and employability skills may improve the role perception of OTs working in education systems.

Published: July 2022

Abstract
Date Presented 04/01/2022
Around half of children with sickle cell disease (SCD) have a developmental delay by the age of 3, but developmental screening and intervention are not part of standard care. Through interviews with caregivers and early intervention providers, we identified three key themes to support successful programing: acceptability, recognition of systemic disparities, and buy-in. Findings will support the implementation of a screening program to enhance the health and well-being of children with SCD.

Published: July 2022

Abstract
Date Presented 04/02/2022
This study quantified changes in perceptions of adults with a spinal cord injury or disease (SCI/D) before and after an autonomous shuttle (AS) ride. Sixteen adults with an SCI/D and 16 age- and gender-matched controls completed surveys before and after a 15-minute AS ride. Perceived barriers to AS decreased after riding for both groups. Understanding perceptions regarding an AS may promote increased acceptance, adoption, and transportation equity for individuals with SCI/D.

Published: July 2022

Abstract
Date Presented 04/01/2022
Disorders of consciousness (DOC) have a severe impact on an individual’s awareness and arousal. Sensory stimulation is an intervention approach to promote arousal and behavioral responsiveness by the application of environmental stimuli in patients with DOC. Eighteen articles were included in this review and showed that patients had a greater increase in arousal when auditory stimulation was applied unimodally, multimodally, or by family members and was personally salient to the patient.
