Published: June 2022

Background: Stressful situations and psychopathology symptoms (e.g., depression and anxiety) shape how individuals regulate and respond to others’ emotions. However, how emotional expressions influence mental health and impact intrapersonal and interpersonal experiences is still unclear.Objective: Here, we used the Flexible Regulation of Emotional Expression (FREE) scale to explore the relationship between emotional expression abilities with affective symptoms and mental health markers.Methods: From a sample of 351 participants, we firstly validate a German version of the FREE scale on a final sample of 222 participants located in Germany, recruited through an online platform. Following this, we performed confirmatory factor analyses to assess the model structure of the FREE-scale. We then utilize a LASSO regression to determine which indicators of psychopathology symptoms and mental health are related to emotional expressive regulation and determine their particular interactions through the general linear model.Results: We replicated the FREE scale’s four latent factors (i.e., ability to enhance and suppress positive as well as negative emotional expressions). After the selection of relevant instruments through LASSO regression, the suppress ability showed specific negative associations with depression (r = 0.2) and stress symptoms (r = 0.16) and positive associations with readiness to confront distressing situations (r = 0.25), self-support (r = 0.2), and tolerance of emotions (r = 0.2). Both, emotional expressions enhance and suppress abilities positively associated with coping markers (resilience) and emotion regulation skills. Finally, the interaction effects between emotional flexibility abilities and stress, depression, and anxiety symptoms evidenced that consistent with the flexibility theory, enhancing and suppressing abilities may predict psychopathological symptoms.Conclusions: These findings emphasize the importance of considering the flexibility to express emotions as a relevant factor for preserved mental health or the development of psychopathological symptoms and indicate that online surveys may serve as a reliable indicator of mental health.

BackgroundThis study aims to analyze the correlation between ARHGAP4 in the expression and clinical characteristics of colorectal cancer (CRC), and the influence of ARHGAP4 expression on the prognosis of CRC, and to evaluate whether ARHGAP4 is a potential prognostic oncotarget for CRC.MethodsARHGAP4 was identified using the Gene Expression Omnibus database through weighted gene coexpression network analysis. Using the Gene Expression Profiling Interactive Analysis to perform and analyze the expression and prognosis of ARHGAP4 in CRC. The expression of AGRGAP4 and immune cells was analyzed by the Tumor IMmune Estimation Resource online database. Finally, immunohistochemistry was used to analyze the expression difference and prognosis of ARHGAP4 in CRC and adjacent normal tissues, as well as the relationship between AGRGAP4 expression and clinical features of CRC.ResultsWe identified ARHGAP4 that is related to the recurrence of CRC from GSE97781 data. ARHGAP4 has not been reported in CRC. The high expression of ARHGAP4 in select colon adenocarcinoma indicates a poor prognosis by database analysis. In our clinical data results, ARHGAP4 is highly expressed in CRC and lowly expressed in normal tissues adjacent to cancer. Compared with the low-expression group, the high-expression group has a significantly poorer prognosis. In colon cancer, the B-cell, macrophage, neutrophil, and dendritic-cell levels are downregulated after ARHGAP4 gene knockout; the levels of CD8+ and CD4+ T cells, neutrophils, and dendritic cells are upregulated after the amplification of the ARHGAP4 gene. In addition, ARHGAP4 expression is related to N,M staging and clinical staging.ConclusionARHGAP4 is highly expressed in CRC, and the high expression of ARHGAP4 has a poor prognosis. The expression of ARHGAP4 in CRC is related to the immune cells such as B cells, CD8+ and CD4+ T cells, macrophages, neutrophils, and dendritic cells. ARHGAP4 is correlated with N,M staging and clinical staging in CRC. ARHGAP4 may be a potential biomarker for the prognosis of CRC.

Published: June 2022

BackgroundNearly 6,000 multisystem inflammatory syndrome in children (MIS-C) have been reported in the United States by November 2021. Left ventricular global myocardial strain has been proved to be one of the best evidence of the diagnostic and prognostic implications for cardiac dysfunction. The global myocardial strain change of MIS-C in the acute phase was still unclear.MethodsPubMed and other sources were searched. A network meta-analysis was conducted. MIS-C was divided into two groups according to left ventricular ejection fraction (LVEF): MIS-C with depressed ejection fraction (MIS-C dEF) and MIS-C with preserved ejection fraction (MIS-C pEF). Global longitudinal strain (GLS) and global circumferential strain (GCS) were compared among MIS-C, Kawasaki disease (KD), and healthy children.ResultsIn total, nine case-control studies were included, published between 2014 and 2021. These studies involved 107 patients with MIS-C, 188 patients with KD, and 356 healthy children. After Bayesian analysis, MIS-C dEF group was found to have a lower LVEF, higher GLS and GCS than the KD groups. Both MIS-C pEF and KD had similar GLS and GCS, which were higher than healthy controls. There was no difference of LVEF among MIS-C pEF, KD, and healthy controls.ConclusionMIS-C dEF was more severe than KD, both in LVEF and global myocardial strain. MIS-C pEF and KD were similar with mild impaired left ventricular myocardial strain compared with the healthy children. Global myocardial strain may be a monitoring index for MIS-C.Systematic Review Registration[https://www.crd.york.ac.uk/prospero/], identifier [CRD42021264760].

BackgroundIntimate partner violence (IPV) is one of the most prevalent forms of violence against women globally and it is considered a public health problem. Because the experience of IPV is stressful and traumatic for victims, they are at high risk of developing alteration of the Hypothalamus–Pituitary–Adrenal (HPA) axis functioning as well as anxiety and depression symptoms. The aim of this study was to compare the quality of life and changes in cortisol response to an acute stressor between women exposed to IPV and non-exposed women. Differences according to symptoms of anxiety and depression including the risk of suicide thoughts, were also analyzed.MethodOur sample size consisted of 130 women (ages 18–68) grouped as follows: 71 women experiencing IPV and 59 women without history of IPV as control group. All participants completed a battery of questionnaires including IPV exposure, anxiety, and depression symptoms (Beck Inventories), as well as quality of life (WHOQOL-BREF). Salivary cortisol levels in response to a cognitive test with verbal, mathematical, and abstract reasoning were measured at four time points.ResultsWomen exposed to IPV, with severe anxiety and depression symptoms as well as suicide thoughts, exhibited heightened cortisol response after the cognitive test and reported lower quality of life compared to (i) women experiencing IPV with moderate symptoms of anxiety and depression, who showed a blunted response, and (ii) women without history of IPV with minimal to moderate symptoms, who showed a decreased cortisol profile. Social relationships dimension was in particular the most affected aspect of quality of life.ConclusionsOur findings highlight the role of cortisol responses as a complementary biological marker to be associated with severe psychiatric disturbances in women exposed to IPV.

BackgroundDue to the lockdown linked to the COVID-19 pandemic, the French National Authority for Health has recommended reinforced follow-up of psychiatric patients, with particular attention to people over 65 years. Cross-sectional studies reported an increased risk of anxiety, depression, and suicide during this period. Older people with psychiatric disorders are at higher risk of developing severe COVID-19 and worsening their psychiatric symptoms.ObjectiveThe main objective is to evaluate the link between coping strategies and the onset of post-traumatic stress disorder (PTSD) after lockdown. The secondary objective is to assess the psychological factors influencing lockdown experiences such as personality, attachment type, or coping strategies.Method/Designthis is a multicenter cohort study including 117 patients followed up by phone in two French geriatric psychiatry units. Sociodemographic variables, psychiatric diagnoses, lockdown conditions, coping strategies, anxiety, and depressive symptoms reported during the first lockdown will be collected retrospectively from the medical file. A first prospective assessment including personality traits, attachment type, and traumatic life events will be conducted at 12 months (T1). Follow-up visits assessing anxious-depressive symptoms and PTSD will be made 18 (T2) and 24 months (T3) after the first lockdown. The primary outcome measure is PTSD symptoms. Secondary outcomes measures are coping strategies, generalized anxiety, anxiety about the COVID-19 pandemic, and quality of life.DiscussionThis study aims to determine if the type of coping strategies usually employed have an impact on the onset of PTSD after a lockdown period. It will also determine if these coping strategies are influenced by other factors such as sociodemographic variables, lockdown conditions, particular personality traits, attachment type, and traumatic life events. This study could help identify factors associated with a poorer experience of lockdowns and pandemic crisis in elderly patients followed in a psychiatric center, and guide support in future similar situations.Trial RegistrationClinicalTrials.gov: http://clinicaltrials.gov/show/NCT04760795, Registered 18 February 2021.
New Insights Into the Social Rumor Characteristics During the COVID-19 Pandemic in China
Authors: Lv Wei , Zhou Wennan , Gao Binli , Han Yefan , Fang Han 
Published: June 2022

BackgroundIn the early stage of the COVID-19 outbreak in China, several social rumors in the form of false news, conspiracy theories, and magical cures had ever been shared and spread among the general public at an alarming rate, causing public panic and increasing the complexity and difficulty of social management. Therefore, this study aims to reveal the characteristics and the driving factors of the social rumors during the COVID-19 pandemic.MethodsBased on a sample of 1,537 rumors collected from Sina Weibo's debunking account, this paper first divided the sample into four categories and calculated the risk level of all kinds of rumors. Then, time evolution analysis and correlation analysis were adopted to study the time evolution characteristics and the spatial and temporal correlation characteristics of the rumors, and the four stages of development were also divided according to the number of rumors. Besides, to extract the key driving factors from 15 rumor-driving factors, the social network analysis method was used to investigate the driver-driver 1-mode network characteristics, the generation driver-rumor 2-mode network characteristics, and the spreading driver-rumor 2-mode characteristics.ResultsResearch findings showed that the number of rumors related to COVID-19 were gradually decreased as the outbreak was brought under control, which proved the importance of epidemic prevention and control to maintain social stability. Combining the number and risk perception levels of the four types of rumors, it could be concluded that the Creating Panic-type rumors were the most harmful to society. The results of rumor drivers indicated that panic psychology and the lag in releasing government information played an essential role in driving the generation and spread of rumors. The public's low scientific literacy and difficulty in discerning highly confusing rumors encouraged them to participate in spreading rumors.ConclusionThe study revealed the mechanism of rumors. In addition, studies involving rumors on different emergencies and social platforms are warranted to enrich the findings.

Published: June 2022

Objectives: Effective public policy to prevent falls among independent community-dwelling older adults is needed to address this global public health issue. This paper aimed to identify gaps and opportunities for improvement of future policies to increase their likelihood of success.Methods: A systematic scoping review was conducted to identify policies published between 2005–2020. Policy quality was assessed using a novel framework and content criteria adapted from the World Health Organization’s guideline for Developing policies to prevent injuries and violence and the New Zealand Government’s Policy Quality Framework.Results: A total of 107 articles were identified from 14 countries. Content evaluation of 25 policies revealed that only 54% of policies met the WHO criteria, and only 59% of policies met the NZ criteria. Areas for improvement included quantified objectives, prioritised interventions, budget, ministerial approval, and monitoring and evaluation.Conclusion: The findings suggest deficiencies in a substantial number of policies may contribute to a disconnect between policy intent and implementation. A clear and evidence-based model falls prevention policy is warranted to enhance future government efforts to reduce the global burden of falls.
Aksjologiczne aspekty duchowości młodych Europejczyków
Authors: Rodziewicz Barbara 
Published: June 2022

CEL NAUKOWY: Celem artykułu jest odtworzenie utrwalonych w świadomości językowej młodych Europejczyków – Polaków, Rosjan i Niemców sposobów rozumienia wartości chrześcijańskich jako jednego z aspektów duchowości.
PROBLEM I METODY BADAWCZE: Problem badawczy został sformułowany jako pytania: Czym są dziś wartości chrześcijańskie dla młodych obywateli Europy? Czy dla wyznawców katolicyzmu, prawosławia i protestantyzmu są one tak samo ważne i niosą identyczne treści oraz przesłania? W celu pozyskania danych językowych zastosowano psycholingwistyczne narzędzie badawcze – test swobodnych skojarzeń werbalnych z wyrazami hasłowymi wartości chrześcijańskie, christliche Werte, xристианские ценности. Do analizy materiału empirycznego wykorzystano wypracowaną na gruncie lingwistyki kognitywnej metodę profilowania pojęć, a także metodę analizy frekwencyjnej.
PROCES WYWODU: Wywód rozpoczyna uzasadnienie wyboru problematyki wartości chrześcijańskich oraz ukazanie specyfiki istoty duchowości i jej związków z aksjologią. Następnie przedstawiono metodologię zebrania i analizy danych językowych. Część trzecia to omówienie wyników testu swobodnych skojarzeń werbalnych oraz wnioski.
WYNIKI ANALIZY NAUKOWEJ: Za wartościami chrześcijańskimi kryją się w przekonaniu respondentów przede wszystkim idee zawarte w Dekalogu, w dalszej kolejności ogólnie pojmowana moralność. Symbolizują je krzyż, Biblia i ikona. Transmisja i pielęgnowanie wartości należą do zadań Kościoła. W świadomości językowej respondentów niemieckich i polskich dokonuje się raczej negatywna ewaluacja wartości chrześcijańskich, badani Rosjanie mają do nich stosunek ambiwalentny.
WNIOSKI, INNOWACJE, REKOMENDACJE: Wartości chrześcijańskie są kategorią aksjologiczną silnie utrwaloną w świadomości językowej przedstawicieli trzech zbiorowości etnicznych. Eksploracja pól asocjacyjnych wykazuje, że profile wartości chrześcijańskich różnią się stopniem złożoności, nasycenia i frekwencji oraz ukształtowaniem pod względem językowym, ujawniając jednakże podobieństwo w zakreślonej skojarzeniami rozpiętości semantycznej.

Abstract
In this letter we discuss the energy dissipation of short-lived para-positronium (p-Ps) in polymers and silica glass. The S parameter characterizing the Doppler broadening of p-Ps annihilation is determined from the previously reported systematic data of positron annihilation age momentum correlation for various polymers and silica glass. A comparison of the S parameter with that expected for thermalized p-Ps trapped in a free volume reveals that p-Ps is not thermalized and possesses excess energy in fluorinated polymers and silica glass, indicating that it is difficult for Ps to lose energy in substances containing heavy elements such as fluorine and silicon.
Photo-thermal tuning of graphene oxide thin film coated integrated optical waveguides
Authors: Moss David 
Published: June 2022

<p>We experimentally investigate power-sensitive photo-thermal tuning (PTT) of two-dimensional (2D) graphene oxide (GO) films coated on integrated optical waveguides. We measure the light power thresholds for reversible and permanent GO reduction in silicon nitride (SiN) waveguides integrated with 1 and 2 layers of GO. Raman spectra at different positions of a hybrid waveguide with permanently reduced GO are characterized, verifying the inhomogeneous GO reduction along the direction of light propagation through the waveguide. The differences between the PTT induced by a continuous-wave laser and a pulsed laser are also compared, confirming that the PTT mainly depend on the average input power. These results reveal interesting features for 2D GO films coated on integrated optical waveguides, which are of fundamental importance for the control and engineering of GO’s properties in hybrid integrated photonic devices. </p>
Teacher careers and professional dispositions in a diversified school market
Authors: Dannefjord Per , Persson Magnus 
Published: June 2022

The marketization of the Swedish school system in the early 1990’s has led to an increased social segregation and organizational and pedagogical diversification, in terms of profiling, of Swedish schools. These differences are growing more visible and important for the teachers’ labour market since the teachers synchronise and incorporate professional dispositions and skills of only local validity and therefore only work in limited sectors of the school market. Thus, what seems like an extension of possibilities, through more diverse options, has transformed into a narrower and possibly more segregated labour market.

Published: June 2022

This paper brings together studies on the future and design methodologies to develop a novel proposal for prospective analysis in the field of education. We apply mixed research methods in combination with design methodologies to open up new routes for studying the evolution, impact and behaviour of trends in future scenarios. Our research is based on an analysis of qualitative data from secondary sources and interviews with experts, which we transform into quantitative data using fuzzy logic models applied to uncontrolled Internet data environments. Our goal is to verify the validity of the DEFLEXOR method, which addresses the need to identify educational opportunities based on future scenarios defined using megatrends detected in various fields. Our conclusions highlight that combining qualitative and quantitative approaches with the methodological principles of design thinking, together with automated calculations arising from creative reflection by experts, constitutes a powerful methodology for developing specific prospective studies.
