Testing the impact of uncertainty reducing reviews in the prediction of cross domain social media pages ratings
Authors: Jagiripu Indira Priyadarsini , Mishra Pramod K. , Saini Anuj , Biswal Ankit 
Published: January 2022

Purpose
To test if the factors “reviewer location” and “time frame” have any impact on the prediction results when predicting online product ratings from user reviews.

Design/methodology/approach
Reviews and ratings are scraped for the product “The Secret” book through Web pages of e-commerce websites like Amazon and Flipkart. Such data is used for training the model to predict ratings of similar products based on reviews data in various other social media platforms like Facebook, Quora and YouTube. After data preprocessing, sentiment analysis is used for opinion classification. A multi-class supervised support vector machine is used for feature classification and predictions. The four models produced in the study have a prediction accuracy of 79%. The data collection is done based on a specific geographical location and specific time frame. Post evaluating the predictions, inferential statistics are used to check for significance.

Findings
There will be an impact on the ratings predicted from the reviews that belong to a particular geographic location or time frame. The ratings predicted from such reviews help in taking accurate decisions as they are robust and informative.

Research limitations/implications
This study is confined to a single product and for cross domain social media pages, only Facebook, YouTube and Quora data are considered.

Practical implications
Provides credible ratings of a product/service on all cross domain social media pages making the initial screening process of purchase decisions better.

Originality/value
Many studies explored the usefulness of reviews for rating prediction based on review nature. This study aims to identify the usefulness of reviews based on factors that would reduce uncertainty in the purchase process.
Staging to join non‐kin groups in a classical cooperative breeder, the Florida scrub‐jay

Abstract

Why unrelated members form groups in animal societies remains a pertinent topic in evolutionary biology because benefits for group members often are not obvious. We studied subordinates that disperse to join unrelated social groups in the Florida scrub‐jay Aphelocoma coerulescens, a cooperative breeding species mainly composed of kin‐based groups.

We evaluated potential adaptive benefits of dispersing to become an unrelated helper (staging) versus remaining home and dispersing only to pair and breed (direct dispersal) to understand why non‐kin‐based groups form.

Using 35 years of demographic data, we quantified life‐history aspects of staging individuals and tested associations between social and ecological factors on the natal and staging territories. We compared fitness outcomes between dispersal strategies by analysing survival, breeding recruitment and direct reproductive output. We tested for sexual asymmetry potentially driven by differences in territory acquisition patterns and female‐biased dispersal for this species.

Of birds that reached 1 year, 28% staged at a non‐natal territory before breeding or disappearing. Staging dispersers departed at younger ages and moved greater distances than direct dispersers. When looking at proximate factors on the natal territory associated with staging, males left groups with many same‐sex helpers, while females often left when their father disappeared. For both sexes, staging individuals more likely came from high‐quality territories and joined groups with fewer same‐sex helpers than in their natal group. While staging and direct dispersers did not differ in survival or likelihood of becoming a breeder, staging males became breeders later and had lower lifetime reproductive success than direct dispersers.

In Florida scrub‐jays, staging appears to be an alternative strategy for female helpers, but a best‐of‐a‐bad‐situation for males. This sexual asymmetry is consistent with males having more options than females to achieve higher reproductive success by breeding near home. Trade‐offs in cost–benefits of departing the natal territory and joining unrelated groups as a helper seem to best explain alternative dispersal patterns, with optimal social queues primarily driving the benefits. This research highlights plasticity in dispersal behaviour in response to social and environmental conditions and offers a new perspective in our understanding of non‐kin‐based social groups.
circFIG 4 drives the carcinogenesis and metastasis of esophagus cancer via the miR‐493‐5p/E2F3 axis
Authors: Huang Zhen , Wang Chunyue , Zhao Xin 
Published: January 2022

AbstractBackgroundEsophageal cancer (EC) is a highly malignant tumor of the digestive tract. Circular RNAs (circRNAs) have been verified to play a regulatory role in the occurrence and progression of different cancers, including EC. This research aimed to investigate the role and molecular mechanism of circFIG 4 in EC progression.MethodsThe analyses of circFIG 4, miR‐493‐5p, and neuro‐oncological ventral antigen 2 levels were administrated by quantitative real‐time polymerase chain reaction. The characteristics of circFIG 4 were determined by Ribonuclease R assay and Actinomycin D assay. Cell proliferation was assessed via colony formation assay and 5‐ethynyl‐2′‐deoxyuridine incorporation assay. Cell cycle distribution and apoptosis were evaluated by flow cytometry. Western blot was performed to assess protein expression. The targeted interaction among circFIG 4, miR‐493‐5p, and E2F transcription factor 3 (E2F3) were validated using dual‐luciferase reporter or RNA immunoprecipitation assays.ResultscircFIG 4 was overtly upregulated in EC and was relatively stable in EC cells. circFIG 4 knockdown impeded proliferation, migration, and invasion and expedited apoptosis in EC cells. circFIG 4 served as a miR‐493‐5p sponge to act in the development of EC. Furthermore, circFIG 4 modulated EC progression via targeting miR‐493‐5p and miR‐493‐5p suppressed EC progression via targeting E2F3. circFIG 4 modulated E2F3 expression through acting as a sponge of miR‐493‐5p. Moreover, circFIG 4 knockdown inhibited EC tumorigenesis by targeting miR‐493‐5p/E2F3 axis tumor growth in vivo.ConclusioncircFIG 4 silence mitigated EC malignant progression at least partly by mediating the miR‐493‐5p/E2F3 pathway, highlighting new biomarkers and therapeutic targets for EC treatment.

Published: January 2022

AbstractBackgroundSubjective response (SR) to alcohol represents a biobehavioral risk factor for heavy drinking and for developing alcohol use disorder (AUD). Identifying moderators of SR have been hindered by small sample sizes that are often used in alcohol administration studies.MethodsThis study combined data from multiple alcohol administration trials to test whether sex, family history of alcohol problems, and impulsivity (via delay discounting) predict SR to alcohol, comprised of four domains: stimulation, sedation, negative affect, and craving. Non‐treatment‐seeking heavy drinkers (N = 250) completed a battery of self‐report scales and behavioral measures of alcohol use and problems, mood, and impulsivity. All participants completed an intravenous alcohol administration session wherein SR domains were measured at baseline, 20, 40, and 60 mg%.ResultsAnalyses using multilevel modeling showed that male sex independently predicted higher alcohol‐induced stimulation and alcohol craving, after controlling for other moderators. A family history of alcohol problems also independently predicted alcohol craving after controlling for other moderators.ConclusionsUsing a large sample and advanced data analytic methods, this study extends the literature on alcohol administration by identifying important moderators of SR in heavy drinkers: namely, male sex and family history of alcohol problems. These findings consolidate and extend a growing body of research aimed at differentiating individuals most likely to report the SR features that confer risk for AUD.

Published: January 2022

SummaryArgentine black and white tegus (Salvator merianae) are omnivorous lizards native to southeastern Brazil, Uruguay, eastern Paraguay and northern Argentina, and are invasive species in Florida and Georgia, USA. They are opportunistic feeders, which is what allow them to have such a diverse variety of foods. Tegus raised a particular concern due to their adaptive capability to different environments. Our goal was to provide a micromorphology baseline of oesophagus and stomach and correlate findings with their dietary and invasive capabilities. Four Argentine black and white tegus were used for this study. We collected and processed specimens from oesophagus and stomach using standard histological techniques and stained tissue sections using Haematoxylin and Eosin (H&E), Periodic Acid Schiff (PAS), Alcian Blue (AB) and Verhoef's elastic stains. The oesophagus was lined with ciliated pseudostratified columnar epithelium (PSCE) with goblet cells. Gut‐associated lymphoid tissues (GALT) were present occasionally in the oesophagus and more frequently in the stomach. Tunica muscularis (Tm) of the oesophageal‐gastric junction had distinct smooth muscle which could function as a sphincter. The mucosa of the stomach was lined with simple columnar epithelium (SC). The glands had neck and dark oxyntico‐peptic cells. The pyloric sphincter had more GALT and mucus cells than other regions. The Tm outer layer is thinner than the inner. Presence of large number of goblet cells would support faster transit of the bolus. The short digestive tract and the histological features observed are consistent with the ability of tegus consumption of large amount of food.
The Saudi Arabia–China relationship at a crossroad: A neoclassical realist analysis
Authors: Duan Xiaolin , Aldamer Shafi 
Published: January 2022

AbstractThe Saudi Arabia–China relationship is at a crossroad. Riyadh has been continuously building a strategic economic partnership with Beijing and enhancing its security alliance with Washington. However, the two great powers are increasingly involved in tense power competition. This article applies neoclassical realism in trying to understand how systemic changes and several unit‐level factors and their synergies and tensions characterize the Saudi–China relationship. It argues, in neoclassical realist terms, that the systemic factors shape the broad contours and general directions of states' foreign policies, but their real‐world effects are mediated by unit‐level factors. In this context, rapid foreign policy shifts on the Riyadh side, either those of balancing or bandwagoning, seem unlikely, despite rising systemic pressure; whereas economic pragmatism and hedging will continue to characterize the Saudi–China relations. A dualistic structure—namely, Saudi Arabia's security alliance and American and economic partnership with China—will endure.
The relationship between repetitive negative thinking, sleep disturbance, and subjective fatigue in women with Generalized Anxiety Disorder
Authors: Leung Phoebe , Li Sophie H. , Graham Bronwyn M. 
Published: January 2022

ObjectivesFatigue is a prominent symptom of Generalized Anxiety Disorder (GAD). However, the pathways contributing to elevated fatigue in GAD are poorly understood. Sleep disturbance, also prominent in GAD, only partially explains elevated fatigue in GAD. Repetitive negative thinking (RNT) is a cognitive feature of both GAD and sleep disturbance, and RNT has recently also been associated with elevated fatigue. Therefore, this study assessed whether elevated fatigue in GAD is accounted for by a combination of sleep quality and RNT.DesignBetween‐group, correlational design in 64 primarily university‐educated women with and without a GAD diagnosis.MethodsWomen completed self‐report questionnaires assessing RNT experienced in the past few days, previous night’s sleep quality, and current physical and mental fatigue. Hierarchical linear regressions were conducted to assess whether the relationship between GAD status and fatigue is accounted for by RNT and sleep quality.ResultsWomen with GAD reported lower sleep quality, and higher RNT and physical and mental fatigue, compared to women without GAD. Sleep quality partly accounted for group differences in both types of fatigue (β’s > −0.4), whereas RNT fully accounted for group differences in both types of fatigue (β’s > 0.29). The relationship between RNT and both types of fatigue was fully accounted for by sleep quality (β’s > −0.39).ConclusionsThese findings indicate that heightened RNT amongst women with GAD may be associated with elevated physical and mental fatigue via its detrimental effects on sleep quality. Interventions that reduce RNT may help to alleviate fatigue symptoms in women with GAD.Practitioner points

Women with Generalized Anxiety Disorder (GAD) have elevated fatigue and repetitive negative thinking (RNT), and poorer self‐reported sleep quality, relative to women without GAD.

Whereas sleep quality only partially accounts for elevated fatigue in GAD, RNT fully accounts for elevated fatigue, and the relationship between RNT and fatigue is fully accounted for by sleep quality.

These findings provide novel evidence that women with GAD may have elevated fatigue because of the detrimental effects of RNT on sleep.

These findings suggest that targeting RNT in treatment for GAD may help to reduce fatigue in GAD, by improving sleep quality.

AbstractObjectiveThe purpose of this study was to explore the effect of WeChat‐based remote follow‐up management on reducing the home care burden and anxiety of parents of premature infants.MethodsA randomized controlled study was conducted in our hospital, with 150 premature infants enrolled in this study, each with 75 cases in the intervention group and the control group. WeChat‐based remote follow‐up management was performed in the intervention group after discharge, while traditional outpatient follow‐up management was performed in the control group. Zarit Burden Interview (ZBI) scale as the primary outcome was used to compare the parental care burden between the two groups.ResultsAt the 1‐month follow‐up, the ZBI (37.1 ± 8.3 vs. 54.2 ± 10.5 [mean ± SD], mean difference: 17.1, the 95% confidence interval for the mean difference: [14.07, 20.13], P = 0.016), Family Caregiver Task Inventory (FCTI) scale (23.1 ± 5.2 vs. 33.4 ± 6.7 [mean ± SD], mean difference: 10.3, the 95% confidence interval for the mean difference: [8.38, 12.22], P = 0.023), Self‐Rating Anxiety Scale (SAS) (49.6 ± 8.5 vs. 60.2 ± 10.8 [mean ± SD], mean difference: 10.6, the 95% confidence interval for the mean difference: [7.49,13.71], P = 0.021) and Self‐Rating Depression Scale (SDS) (48.2 ± 9.5 vs. 58.8 ± 11.2 [mean ± SD], mean difference: 10.6, the 95% confidence interval for the mean difference: [7.28, 13.92], P = 0.019) scores of the intervention group were lower than those of the control group, and the lower scores indicate better outcomes.ConclusionWeChat‐based remote follow‐up management of premature infants after discharge can effectively improve parents' ability to care and their psychological state and reduce burden of care.

AbstractAimIn many species, density‐dependent effects on reproduction are an important driver of population dynamics. However, it is rarely considered that the direction of density dependence is expected to vary over space and time depending on anti‐predator behaviour and predator community. Aggregation may allow for effective group mobbing against avian nest predators while aggregation may also attract mammalian predators, causing negative density dependence. We aim to quantify spatial variation in the effect of conspecific breeding density on nest survival in a mobbing bird species (Eurasian oystercatcher;Haematopus ostralegus) and identify whether this variation in density dependence can be explained by the predator community.LocationCountry‐wide (The Netherlands).MethodsWe integrated reproductive data with breeding territory maps of Eurasian oystercatchers and occupancy maps of avian and mammalian predator species across the Netherlands for a 10‐year period.ResultsSpatial variation in the composition of the predator community explained the effects of neighbour density, showing decreasing nest survival when both conspecific density and mammalian dominance increased. Also, heterospecific density (from breeding godwits and lapwing) has an additional effect on the oystercatcher nest survival. Strikingly, this pattern did not extend to mammal‐free island populations.Main conclusionsOur study provides evidence that both the strength and sign of density dependence can vary spatially within species, implying that it is dangerous to generalize results from a single local population to large‐scale management implications and modelling exercises. The study also suggests that conservation actions that aim to attract breeding birds should be prioritized in areas with fewer mammalian predators, but this idea requires further testing on island populations.
Self‐prioritization is supported by interactions between large‐scale brain networks
Authors: Yankouskaya Alla , Sui Jie 
Published: January 2022

AbstractResting‐state functional magnetic resonance imaging (fMRI) has provided solid evidence that the default mode network (DMN) is implicated in self‐referential processing. The functional connectivity of the DMN has also been observed in tasks where self‐referential processing leads to self‐prioritization (SPE) in perception and decision‐making. However, we are less certain about whether (i) SPE solely depends on the interplay within parts of the DMN or is driven by multiple brain networks and (ii) whether SPE is associated with a unique component of interconnected networks or can be explained by related effects such as emotion prioritization. We addressed these questions by identifying and comparing topological clusters of networks involved in self‐and emotion prioritization effects generated in an associative‐matching task. Using network‐based statistics, we found that SPE controlled by emotion is supported by a unique component of interacting networks, including the medial prefrontal part of the DMN (MPFC), frontoparietal network (FPN) and insular salience network (SN). This component emerged as a result of a focal effect confined to few connections, indicating that interaction between DMN, FPC and SN is critical to cognitive operations for the SPE. This result was validated on a separate data set. In contrast, prioritization of happy emotion was associated with a component formed by interactions between the rostral prefrontal part of SN, posterior parietal part of FPN and the MPFC, whereas sad emotion reveals a cluster of the DMN, dorsal attention network (DAN) and visual medial network (VMN). We discussed theoretical and methodological aspects of these findings within the more general domain of social cognition.
The Impact of the COVID‐19 Pandemic on American Board of Surgery's Oral Certifying Exams

Published: January 2022

AbstractIn response to the COVID‐19 pandemic, the American Board of Surgery (ABS) shifted from in‐person to remote administrations of the oral certifying exam (CE). Although the overall exam architecture remains the same, there are a number of differences in administration and staffing costs, exam content, security concerns, and the tools used to give the exam. Overall, the remote oral CEs have been a success, being well‐received by candidates and examiners, having comparable psychometric performance to the in‐person exams, and allowing over 2,300 candidates to obtain board certification on time. Although the ABS will continue remote administrations in the near future, a permanent switch will require careful consideration of exam security, psychometrics, validity, examiner quality and engagement, and other issues related to comparability across administration modes.

AbstractIntroductionAlthough several outcomes are commonly measured to assess the effect of surgery for young people with cerebral palsy (CP), these are selected mainly by health professionals and researchers. Including the perspectives of a broader range of stakeholders is an essential step towards determining important outcomes for assessment. This qualitative study involves the development of a core outcome set (COS) for lower limb orthopaedic surgery for ambulant children with CP.ObjectiveThis study aimed to identify outcomes that matter to children and young people with CP, their parents and healthcare professionals following lower limb orthopaedic surgery.MethodsSemi‐structured interviews were conducted with 10 healthcare professionals, 10 children and young people with CP and 8 parents. Interview data were analysed by content analysis supported by the International Classification of Functioning, Disability and Health (ICF‐CY) supplemented by thematic analysis.FindingsThirty‐one outcomes were identified in total, which were linked to eleven second‐level ICF‐CY categories. There were differences between stakeholder groups in preferences and expectations from surgical outcomes. Healthcare professionals and children with their parents identified 31 and 25 outcomes, respectively. Health outcomes valued by participants were lower limb alignment and symmetry, flexibility and muscle strength, mental health, fatigue, pain, function in life, mobility, participation, being independent, quality of life and adverse events. Compared to previous published trials, 10 new outcomes were revealed by this study.ConclusionThe researchers identified outcomes that are important to all stakeholders following lower limb orthopaedic surgery for ambulant CP. Including these outcomes in future studies would promote patient‐centred care for children and young adults with CP. Findings will be used to inform an international Delphi survey and develop a COS in this field.Patient and Public ContributionThis study was informed by an advisory group including a young adult with CP and a parent of a child with CP. This group engaged in the design of the study and the information material to support the interview (information sheet and interview topic guide).
