Employee responses to information security related stress: Coping and violation intention
Authors: Yazdanmehr Adel , Li Yuan , Wang Jingguo 
Published: December 2022

AbstractStudies on employee responses to the information security policy (ISP) demands to show that employees who experience stress over the demands would resort to emotion‐focused coping to alleviate the stress and subsequently violate the ISP. However, their intent to engage in problem‐focused coping to meet the ISP demands and possibly reduce ISP violations has yet to be analysed. We argue that both types of coping responses coexist in employee responses to ISP demands and they together influence ISP violation intention. Drawing upon the Transactional Model of Stress and Coping, we examine how security‐related stress (SRS) triggers inward and outward emotion‐focused coping, and problem‐focused coping to the ISP demands, which together influence employee ISP violations. We also examine how ISP‐related self‐efficacy and organisational support moderate the effects of SRS on coping responses. We surveyed 200 employees in the United States to test our model. The results indicate that SRS triggers all three coping responses, and ISP‐related self‐efficacy and organisational support reduce the effects of SRS on inward and outward emotion‐focused coping. Problem‐focused coping then decreases ISP violation intention, whereas inward and outward emotion‐focused coping increases it. The model was further verified with ISP compliance as the outcome construct, which yielded consistent results. Understanding various coping responses to SRS and the factors that facilitate or inhibit the responses can assist managers in effectively designing and implementing the ISP to reduce employee ISP violations.

AbstractThe influence of stress on the small‐signal dielectric permittivity and piezoelectric coefficient of polycrystalline lead‐free perovskite 0.92(Na1/2K1/2)NbO3–(0.08 − x)Bi1/2Li1/2TiO3–xBaZrO3 (x = 0, 0.02, 0.04, 0.06, and 0.07) was characterized under different constant uniaxial stress up to −200 MPa within a temperature range of −150 to 450°C, revealing stress‐induced suppression of the electromechanical response as well as shifts in the phase boundaries. For all compositions, the interferroelectric and ferroelectric–paraelectric phase transitions were shifted to higher temperatures under the uniaxial compressive stress. Interestingly, the sensitivity to the applied stress was found to increase with increasing BZ/BLT ratio in the system. The origin of a different extent of stress‐sensitivity with BZ/BLT ratio is suggested to be related to the change in the crystal structure. Additionally, at temperatures below −50°C, the relative permittivity showed a significant increase under applied compressive stress.
To what extent a modern teaching style benefits students? Why do teachers act the way they do?
Authors: Villar‐Aldonza Adriano 
Published: December 2022

AbstractBackgroundThe growth of teaching practices conducted to promote cognitive activation and active participation in the classroom in recent years has become the epicentre of an active debate regarding their effectiveness.ObjectivesThis study is aimed to shed some light on this topic by empirically analysing the causes and consequences of more modern strategies in Spanish secondary schools.MethodsThe database used in the study was PISA 2018. In order to analyse the causes behind the teaching style followed by teachers, a logit model was used. Likewise, to analyze the consequences that a modern teaching style has on students at the age of 15, we used propensity score analysis techniques.Results and ConclusionsRegarding the results obtained through a logit model, it is shown that the likelihood of a modern teaching style decreases if teachers work for a state school or if they usually apply traditional strategies. Similarly, this series of practices are shown to be more common in schools where teachers and students make greater use of digital devices. The second section of results, focused on analysing the effect this type of teaching strategies has on cognitive, non‐cognitive and wellbeing among students, show that, on the one hand, modern teaching style negatively affects students' performance in mathematics, science or language. On the other hand, modern teaching style has been shown to contribute to improving the students' well‐being, motivation and cooperation, only being significant the latter. Moreover, this teaching style contributes to reducing bullying among students.

AbstractIntroductionContact force sensing catheters are widely used for ablation of cardiac arrhythmias. They allow quantification of catheter‐to‐tissue contact, which is an important determinant for lesion formation and may reduce the risk of complications. The accuracy of these sensors may vary across the measurement range, catheter‐to‐tissue angle, and amongst manufacturers. We aim to compare the accuracy and reproducibility of four different force sensing ablation catheters.MethodsA measurement setup containing a heated saline water bath with an integrated force measurement unit was constructed and validated. Subsequently, we investigated four different catheter models, each equipped with a unique measurement technology: Tacticath Quartz (Abbott), AcQBlate Force (Biotronik/Acutus), Stablepoint (Boston Scientific), and Smarttouch SF (Biosense Webster). For each model, the accuracy of three different catheters was measured within the range of 0–60 g and at contact angles of 0°, 30°, 45°, 60°, and 90°.ResultsIn total, 6685 measurements were performed using 4 × 3 catheters (median of 568, interquartile range: 511–606 measurements per catheter). Over the entire measurement‐range, the force measured by the catheters deviated from the real force by the following absolute mean values: Tacticath 1.29 ± 0.99 g, AcQBlate Force 2.87 ± 2.37 g, Stablepoint 1.38 ± 1.29 g, and Smarttouch 2.26 ± 2.70 g. For some models, significant under‐ and overestimation of >10 g were observed at higher forces. Mean absolute errors of all models across the range of 10–40 g were <3 g.ConclusionContact measured by force‐sensing catheters is accurate with 1–3 g deviation within the range of 10–40 g. Significant errors can occur at higher forces with potential clinical consequences.
Ultrasound processing of sweet lime juice: Effect of matrix pH on microbial inactivation, enzyme stability, and bioactive retention
Authors: Shaik Lubna , Chakraborty Snehasis 
Published: December 2022

AbstractThe effect of pH on microbial, enzyme inactivation, and bioactive retention in ultrasound (US) treated sweet lime (Citrus limetta) juice was studied. The pH of the juice varied at 3.5, 4.0, and 4.5, whereas the US duty cycle (DC) ranged between 75% and 95% (0.07–0.7 W/cm3), and the treatment time varied between 15 and 30 min. More than 5‐log reduction in Saccharomyces cerevisiae and Escherichia coli was achieved at DC 95% (25 min) while Listeria monocytogenes got inactivated at DC 85% (25 min). 95%–99% inactivation of peroxidase and pectin methylesterase was achieved at DC 95% (30 min), while 60% inactivation in polyphenol oxidase (PPO) was observed. The addition of ascorbic acid (1 g/L) as an EI resulted in the complete inactivation of PPO at DC 85% (25 min). A maximum color change (ΔE*) of 2.6 was noticed at the highest US treatment condition (DC 95%, 30 min). Eventually, pH showed a marginal effect (˂5%) on retaining vitamin C and bioactive compounds, but US treatment enhanced them. US treatment at DC 95% (30 min) produced microbially safe (˃5‐log cycle reduction) and enzymatically stable (99% enzyme inactivation) juice. To conclude, optimized US treatment increased total phenolic content (TPC), antioxidant capacity, and vitamin C in sweet lime juice by 16.7%, 10.7%, and 14.1%, respectively.Practical applicationsConsumer demand for superior quality sweet lime juice with minimal processing. This explores the opportunity of applying US technology as one of the nonthermal treatments for such a product. Furthermore, the treated juice should be microbially safe and enzymatically stable with better bioactive preservation. Typically, the pH of the fruit juice is one of the main influencing factors controlling microbiological spoilage. The current study explores the consequence of matrix pH and US conditions on the microbial inactivation, enzyme stability, and bioactive compounds of US‐treated sweet lime juice. The hypothesis is that the ultrasonic power required to achieve microbial safety at a lower pH of sweet lime juice should be lower. This will eventually help the industry choose an optimal harvesting condition to obtain the desired pH during processing.

AbstractPurposeTo evaluate the influence of post type and mechanical aging on compression force resistance, fracture pattern, and stress distribution in weakened roots.Materials and methodsBovine roots were endodontically treated and widened—and randomly divided into 8 groups (n = 10) according to post type (prefabricated glass fiber post and customized anatomic glass fiber post, milled glass fiber post‐and‐core, and milled polyetheretherketone post‐and‐core) and mechanical aging (without and with mechanical aging). Three hundred thousand cycles of mechanical fatigue were performed and compression force resistance (N) was analyzed by two‐way ANOVA and Tukey test (α = 0.05). Fracture patterns were reported and stress distribution was analyzed by finite elements analysis.ResultsThere was a significant effect of post type (p = 0.032) and mechanical aging (p = 0.009), but no double interaction (p = 0.879). Higher values were recorded in the milled glass fiber and polyetheretherketone post‐and‐core groups compared to the prefabricated glass fiber post groups, and no significant difference was found among anatomic glass fiber post groups and other groups. Reparable fractures were predominant in the milled glass fiber and polyetheretherketone post‐and‐core groups. Prefabricated glass fiber posts and milled polyetheretherketone post‐and‐cores showed similar stress distribution.ConclusionsPost type and mechanical aging influence the compression force resistance and fracture pattern of weakened roots. Milled glass fiber and polyetheretherketone post‐and‐cores exhibited higher compression force resistance and more reparable fractures compared to prefabricated glass fiber posts. Prefabricated glass fiber posts and milled polyetheretherketone post‐and‐cores showed similar stress distribution.
The worldwide ageism crisis

Published: December 2022

AbstractAgeism is a worldwide crisis. The COVID‐19 pandemic exacerbated ageism toward older adults with hate speech, intergenerational resentment, and human rights violations. This article provides an overview of the interdisciplinary and international theoretical and applied research literature in three subareas: intergenerational attitudes and relations, psychological and physical effects of ageism on older adults, and reducing ageism. Cross‐cutting themes are the need to (1) consider positive (including seemingly “positive”) and negative views, treatment, and experiences of older adults, (2) expand the study of diverse populations including by age and country as well as intersectionality of ageism and other isms (e.g., ableism, classism, heterosexism, racism, sexism), (3) expand the study of the wide‐ranging manifestations of ageism at multiple levels of analysis including greater attention to human rights and new indicators of ageism, and (4) expand the circle of interdisciplinary and international collaborations within and across communities worldwide with all stakeholders and policymakers. Ageism and other isms are intertwined with and multiplied by population aging and other societal issues such as pandemics and climate crises. This article aims to further sound the alarm for the urgent need for age‐friendly societies and addressing ageism through basic research, preventive measures, and intervention efforts.

AbstractThis implementation research study sought to examine the impact of the COVID‐19 pandemic on maternal and infant nutrition practices, and related aspects of health and food systems in Nairobi and Uasin Gishu Counties, Kenya. The study triangulated in‐depth interviews with 16 pregnant women, 31 lactating women (including COVID‐19 positive), 10 facility health workers, 10 community health volunteers, 6 focus group discussions (FGDs) with food vendors, 4 FGDs and 15 stakeholder interviews with government and implementing partners. Trends from Kenyan Health Information System indicators (i.e., exclusive breastfeeding and initiation of breastfeeding, antenatal care) were also examined. During the COVID‐19 pandemic, a decline in attendance of antenatal care, and maternity facilities was observed, and corroborated by Kenyan Health Information System data. Lack of clarity among health workers on COVID‐19 breastfeeding guidance and fear of COVID‐19 infection early in the pandemic were key drivers of early infant formula use, mother–child separation following delivery and delayed initiation of breastfeeding. Most women exclusively breastfed due to Government of Kenya restrictions in movement. Unemployment and job loss was linked to food insecurity and worsened by increased food prices and limited social protection measures. In response, pregnant and lactating women resorted to skipping meals and reducing quantity and variety of foods consumed. Efforts to build forward from COVID‐19 in Kenya should include facility and community health education to prevent disruptions in breastfeeding and to support maternal dietary intake, and in the provision of targeted social protection measures alongside other multisectoral interventions (i.e., psychosocial support) for Kenyan pregnant and lactating women.
Internal medicine trainee perspectives on back‐up call systems and relationships to burnout

Published: December 2022

AbstractIntroductionAs burnout within medicine escalates, residency programmes should strive to understand how training structures may contribute. Back‐up call systems that address gaps in overnight resident call coverage are one possible contributing structure. However, the intersection between back‐up call policies and burnout remains unclear. The authors explored residents' decision‐making process when deciding whether or not to activate a back‐up resident for call coverage, perspectives surrounding the legitimacy of call activations and the impact of back‐up call systems on education and experienced burnout.MethodsInternal medicine residents at the University of Toronto were recruited through email. Eighteen semi‐structured one‐on‐one interviews were conducted with residents from September 2019 to February 2020. Interviews explored participants' experiences and perceptions with back‐up call and call activations. A constructivist grounded theory approach was used to develop a conceptual understanding of the back‐up system as it relates to residents' decisions underlying activations, downstream impacts and relationships to burnout.ResultsResidents described a complex thought process when deciding whether to activate back‐up. Decisions were coloured by inner conflicts including sense of collegiality, need to maintain an image and time of year balanced against self‐reported burnout. Residents described how back‐up calls can lead to burnout, usually in the form of exhaustion, lowering their threshold to trigger future back‐up activations. Impacts included anxiety of not knowing whether an activation would occur, decreased educational productivity and the ‘domino effect’ of increased workload for colleagues.DiscussionResidents weigh inner tensions when deciding to activate back‐up. Their collective experience suggests that burnout is both a trigger and consequence of back‐up calls, creating a cyclical relationship. Escalating rates of call activations may signal that burnout amongst residents is high, warranting educational leads to assess for resident wellness and to critically evaluate the structure of such systems with respect to unintended consequences.

AbstractBackgroundOrganising pneumonia (OP) is reported in patients with haematologic malignancy suspected of having invasive mould disease, yet little is known about this relationship.ObjectiveTo investigate molecular evidence of invasive mould pneumonia in paraffin‐embedded lung tissues from histologically diagnosed OP patients with suspected invasive mould pneumonia.Patients/MethodsPatients with haematologic malignancy suspected to have invasive pulmonary mould disease who underwent lung biopsy at a tertiary hospital, Seoul, South Korea, between 2008 and 2020, were retrospectively reviewed. To find molecular evidence of fungal infection, PCR assay was used to detect Aspergillus‐ and Mucorales‐specific DNA within OP lung tissue sections.ResultsForty‐seven patients with suspected invasive mould pneumonia underwent lung biopsy and 15 (32%) were histologically diagnosed as OP without any evidence of fungal hyphae. Of these 15 patients, 3 (20%) received allogenic haematopoietic stem cell transplantation prior to developing OP. Before biopsy, 2 and 13 patients had probably and possible invasive mould disease, respectively. The median antifungal treatment length was 81 [8–114] days, and the median steroid treatment dosage was 0.35 mg/kg/day for 36 days (methylprednisolone equivalent doses), respectively. After biopsy, three patients with possible invasive mould infection revealed probable invasive pulmonary aspergillosis. From the 15 paraffin‐embedded lung tissues, 6 (40%) exhibited positive PCR assay results for detecting Aspergillus‐ and Mucorales‐specific DNA.ConclusionsMore than one third of OP cases in patients with suspected invasive mould pneumonia exhibited molecular evidence of invasive mould infection by fungus‐specific PCR in lung tissues, likely associated with concurrent or prior fungal infection.

Published: December 2022

AbstractThis study investigated the mediating role of parental psychological control (PPC) and support in the relationship between self‐compassion and parental burnout syndrome. The study participants included 1185 Vietnamese parents who completed questionnaires regarding demographic information, parental burnout, self‐compassion, parental support of the child, and PPC. We used data analyses, including structural equation modeling, to test the mediation roles of PPC and parental support of the child. Our main findings include: (1) self‐compassion had a significant negative effect on parental burnout; (2) the mediation roles of PPC and parental support of the child were also significant. These results suggest that parents with high self‐compassion tend to provide more support for children in daily parenting, which helps reduce parental burnout. In contrast, parents with low self‐compassion were more likely to use PPC, which exacerbated their burnout. The results from this study provide suggestions for creating effective interventions in the family context to reduce parental burnout and improve parenting effectiveness.

Published: December 2022

AbstractFerritin nanoparticles play many important roles in theranostic and bioengineering applications and have been successfully used as nanovectors for the targeted delivery of drugs due to their ability to specifically bind the transferrin receptor (TfR1, or CD71). They can be either genetically or chemically modified for encapsulating therapeutics or probes in their inner cavity. Here, we analyzed a new engineered ferritin nanoparticle, made of the H chain mouse ferritin (HFt) fused with a specific lanthanide binding tag (LBT). The HFt‐LBT has one high affinity lanthanide binding site per each of the 24 subunits and a tryptophane residue within the tag that acts as an antenna able to transfer the energy to the lanthanide ions via a LRET process. In this study, among lanthanides, we selected europium for its red emission that allows to reduce overlap with tissue auto‐fluorescence. Steady state emission measurements and time‐resolved emission spectroscopy have been employed to investigate the interaction between the HFt‐LBT and the Eu3+ ions. This allowed us to identify the Eu3+ energy states involved in the process and to pave the way for the future use of HFt‐LBT Eu3+ complex in theranostics.
Ewing and Ewing‐like sarcomas: A morphological guide through genetically‐defined entities
Authors: Yoshida Akihiko 
Published: December 2022

AbstractThe fifth edition of the World Health Organization classification of soft tissue and bone tumors redefined Ewing sarcoma by fusions between EWSR1/FUS and ETS family of transcription factors, and recognized three tumor groups among Ewing‐like sarcoma: CIC‐rearranged sarcoma, sarcoma with BCOR genetic alterations, and round cell sarcoma with EWSR1::non‐ETS fusions. Although this classification underscores the critical role of molecular genetics in the diagnosis of small round cell sarcoma, each entry is recognized as a specific entity not only because they have different genetics but because their phenotypes are distinct and reasonably robust to support the diagnosis. This review focuses on the morphological aspects of Ewing sarcoma and a subset of Ewing‐like sarcomas (CIC‐rearranged sarcoma, BCOR‐associated sarcoma, and EWSR1::NFATC2 sarcoma) for which phenotypic characteristics have been well established. Classic histological findings, uncommon variations, and recurrent diagnostic pitfalls are addressed, along with the utility of recently developed immunohistochemical markers (NKX2.2, PAX7, ETV4, BCOR, CCNB3, and NKX3.1). Phenotypic expertise would significantly expedite the diagnostic process and complement (or sometimes outperform) genetic testing, even in well‐resourced settings. Morphological knowledge plays an even more substantial role in facilities that do not have easy access to molecular testing.
