Abstract
Background
Non-medical issues (e.g. loneliness, financial concerns, housing problems) can shape how people feel physically and psychologically. This has been emphasised during the Covid-19 pandemic, especially for older people. Social prescribing is proposed as a means of addressing non-medical issues, which can include drawing on support offered by the cultural sector.

Method
A rapid realist review was conducted to explore how the cultural sector (in particular public/curated gardens, libraries and museums), as part of social prescribing, can support the holistic well-being of older people under conditions imposed by the pandemic. An initial programme theory was developed from our existing knowledge and discussions with cultural sector staff. It informed searches on databases and within the grey literature for relevant documents, which were screened against the review’s inclusion criteria. Data were extracted from these documents to develop context-mechanism-outcome configurations (CMOCs). We used the CMOCs to refine our initial programme theory.

Results
Data were extracted from 42 documents. CMOCs developed from these documents highlighted the importance of tailoring—shaping support available through the cultural sector to the needs and expectations of older people—through messaging, matching, monitoring and partnerships. Tailoring can help to secure benefits that older people may derive from engaging with a cultural offer—being distracted (absorbed in an activity) or psychologically held, making connections or transforming through self-growth. We explored the idea of tailoring in more detail by considering it in relation to Social Exchange Theory.

Conclusions
Tailoring cultural offers to the variety of conditions and circumstances encountered in later life, and to changes in social circumstances (e.g. a global pandemic), is central to social prescribing for older people involving the cultural sector. Adaptations should be directed towards achieving key benefits for older people who have reported feeling lonely, anxious and unwell during the pandemic and recovery from it.

Abstract
Background
Internal thoracic arteries (ITAs) are considered to be the standard conduits used for coronary revascularization. Recently minimally invasive procedures are performed to harvest ITAs. The aim of this retrospective cohort study is to observe the effect and safety of less invasive LIMA harvesting approaches in the learning curve compared to conventional harvesting.

Methods
We retrospectively analyzed the data of 138 patients divided into three different groups based on the LIMA harvesting techniques: conventional sternotomy LIMA harvesting, CSLH (n: 64), minimally invasive direct LIMA harvesting, MIDLH (n: 42), and robotic-assisted LIMA harvesting, RALH (n: 32). The same 138 patients were also divided into sternotomy (n: 64), and non-sternotomy (n: 74) groups keeping both MIDLH and RALH in the non-sternotomy category. Parameters associated with LIMA’s quality and some other perioperative parameters such as harvesting time, LIMA damage, perioperative myocardial infarction, ventilation time, 24 h drainage, ICU stay, hospital mortality, computed tomographic angiography (CTA) LIMA patency on discharge, and after one year were recorded.

Results
The mean LIMA harvesting time was 36.9 ± 14.3, 74.4 ± 24.2, and 164.7 ± 51.9 min for CSLH, MIDLH, and RALH groups respectively (p < 0.001). One patient 1/32 (3.1%) in the RALH group had LIMA damage while the other two groups had none. One-month LIMA CTA patency was 56/57 (98.2%), 34/36 (94.4%), and 27/27 (100%) (p = 0.339), while 1 year CTA patency was 47/51 (92.1%), 30/33 (90.9%), and 24/25 (96%) for CSLH, MIDLH, and RALH groups respectively (p = 0.754). In the case of sternotomy vs non-sternotomy, the LIMA harvesting time was 36.9 ± 14.3 and 113.6 ± 59.3 min (p < 0.001). CTA patency on discharge was 56/57 (98.2%) and 61/63 (96.8%) (p = 0.619), while 1 year CTA patency was 47/51 (92.1%) and 54/58 (93.1%) (p = 0.850) for sternotomy vs non-sternotomy groups.

Conclusion
Minimally invasive left internal mammary artery harvesting techniques during the learning curve are safe and have no negative impact on the quality of LIMA. Perioperative outcomes are comparable to conventional procedures except for prolonged harvesting time. RALH is the least invasive and most time-consuming procedure during the learning curve. These procedures are safe and can be performed for selected patients even during the learning curve.

Abstract
Background
Patterns of aeroallergen sensitization vary by countries. Testing with the minimum number of allergens is important to identify sensitized patients for a cost-effective approach. We aimed to assess the minimal skin prick test (SPT) panel to identify sensitized children with allergic respiratory diseases.

Methods
The SPT results from January 2020 to December 2021 in children aged 2–18 years with symptoms of asthma or allergic rhinitis or both were retrospectively reviewed. All children received 11 allergen extracts (Dermatophagoides pteronyssinus [Der p], Dermatophagoides farinae [Der f], American cockroach, German cockroach, cat, dog, Bermuda grass, careless weed, Timothy, Acacia, and molds). The conditional approach was used to determine the allergen selection for the SPT panel.

Results
A total of 688 children were enrolled (mean age = 8.14 ± 3.91 years). The sensitization results were Der p (57.85%), Der f (55.09%), German cockroach (18.02%), American cockroach (17.01%), cat (11.77%), Acacia (3.49%), Bermuda grass (3.34%), molds (3.05%), Timothy (2.33%), dog (1.89%), and careless weed (1.60%). Der p, Der f, and German cockroach were required to detect at least 95% of sensitized children. If the SPT panel added Acacia, cat, American cockroach, Bermuda grass, and careless weed, sensitization was detected in 99–100% of cases.

Conclusions
Indoor allergens (Der p, cockroach, and cat) were common causes of sensitization in Thai children with allergic respiratory diseases. Eight allergens were sufficient for sensitization identification in Thai children with asthma or allergic rhinitis or both in clinical practice.

AbstractThe Mississippian (Tournaisian–Visean) of the Jbel Asdaf area in the Tisdafine Basin (Eastern Anti-Atlas, Morocco) has been, for the first time, the subject of a palynological study. This work aims first to describe the lithological and the paleontological composition of the Aït Yalla and Tinerhir Formations, then to refine the age, reconstruct the paleoenvironment and assess the thermal maturity of the organic matter. The studied section is subdivided, from oldest to youngest, into three intervals, according to their lithological and paleontological compositions. Lithologically, the lower interval (lower part of the Aït Yalla Formation) and middle interval (upper part of the Aït Yalla Formation and basal part of the Tinerhir Formation) consist mostly of clay shales and green shales, respectively, both alternating with limestone or sandstone beds. The upper interval (upper part of the Tinerhir Formation) is dominated by sandstones, also alternating with pelitic-sandstone or limestone beds. The kerogen delivered by the analyzed samples is mostly of continental origin, composed mainly of opaque phytoclasts, while translucent phytoclasts and miospores are less represented. Marine fraction, consisting mainly of granular amorphous organic matter and some phytoplankton, are rare. Biostratigraphically, the late Visean Tripartites vetustus–Rotaspora fracta (VF) miospore Zone of the Western Europe biozonal scheme is recognized with some regards in the Tinerhir Formation, based on the first occurrence of the miospore Rotaspora cf. knoxi. Vallatisporites aff. ciliaris is another biostratigraphic marker taxon of the assemblage, whose the last occurrence marks the end of the VF Biozone at the top of the analyzed section. Qualitative and quantitative parameters of the different palynofacies constituents (e.g., shape, size, % of opaque and translucent phytoclasts) show, from the base to the top of the section, a gradual transition from a distal marine environment generally recognized in the Aït Yalla Formation towards an intermediate marine environment in the Tinerhir Formation, suggesting a sea-level fall. Optical analyses performed on the color of palynomorphs, mainly spores, suggest a thermal maturity, ranging from late mature to early post-mature stage for most of the analysed samples, with a burial depth and a temperature of at least 3300 m and 90 °C, respectively.

Abstract
Background
The government of Ethiopia has been promoting large-scale agricultural investments to accelerate agricultural modernization and improve local people’s food security. However, studies that quantify the actual impact of such investments on the food security status of the investment hosting community using diverse food security indicators and suitable impact estimation methods are scanty. The main purpose of this article is, therefore, to analyse the impact of large-scale agricultural investments on the food security status of the Anuak community in Gambella region. This study employed a quasi-experimental research design. Data were gathered from 352 households selected through a systematic sampling technique and analysed using a Propensity Score Matching technique.

Results
The result shows that large-scale agricultural investments have a significant negative impact on the food security status of the local community and have worsened their food insecurity problem. The investments have reduced food availability, access, and utilization of the local people and increased their vulnerability to food insecurity.

Conclusions
We conclude that the Ethiopian government and private investors have failed to generate the benefits that they aspire at the local level to ensure the food security of the affected community. We, therefore, suggest that the Ethiopian government should reform the sector in such a way that takes the local context into account and embraces local people so that they can directly benefit from employment opportunities, infrastructural development, and technological transfer.

Abstract
Background
The study of the meaning of life is essential since it plays a protective role in the mental health of university students. However, no studies have shown the adequate psychometric functioning of the MLQ in Latin American university students. For this reason, this research aims to evaluate the internal structure using CTT models, obtain evidence of validity based on the relationship with other variables, perform factorial invariance according to gender, and estimate the reliability of the MLQ.

Methods
A sample of 581 Peruvian undergraduate students of both sexes (29.5% men and 70.5% women) between the ages of 18 and 35 (M = 22.6; SD = 3.3) was collected. Along with the MLQ, other instruments were applied to measure satisfaction with life (SWLS), subjective well-being (WBI), and depression (PHQ-9).

Results
In the present study was evidenced that the model of two related factors of nine items presents better adjustment indices (RMSEA = .075; SRMR = .059; CFI = .97; TLI = .96) compared to other models. Also, it was shown that the factorial structure of the MLQ is strictly invariant for the group of men and women. It was also shown that the presence of meaning was positively related to satisfaction with life (.63) and well-being (.60) and negatively to depression (− .56). In contrast, the search for meaning was not significantly related to life satisfaction (− .05) and well-being (− .07); but yes, to depression (.19).

Conclusion
It is concluded that the MLQ from the perspective of CTT has shown adequate evidence of reliability and validity. Therefore, it could be used in future studies and evaluation and intervention processes. In addition, the study provides the first evidence of the psychometric functioning of the scale in university students from Latin America.
Conserved Pib2 regions have distinct roles in TORC1 regulation at the vacuole

Published: August 2022

ABSTRACT
TORC1 is a critical controller of cell growth in eukaryotes. In yeast (Saccharomyces cerevisiae), the presence of nutrients is signaled to TORC1 by several upstream regulatory sensors that together coordinate TORC1 activity. TORC1 localizes to both vacuolar and endosomal membranes, where differential signaling occurs. This localization is mimicked by Pib2, a key upstream TORC1 regulator that is essential for TORC1 reactivation after nutrient starvation or pharmacological inhibition. Pib2 has both positive and negative effects on TORC1 activity, but the mechanisms remain poorly understood. Here, we pinpoint the Pib2 inhibitory function on TORC1 to residues within short, conserved N-terminal regions. We also show that the Pib2 C-terminal regions, helical region E and tail, are essential for TORC1 reactivation. Furthermore, the Pib2 FYVE domain plays a role in vacuolar localization, but it is surprisingly unnecessary for recovery from rapamycin exposure. Using chimeric Pib2 targeting constructs, we show that endosomal localization is not necessary for TORC1 reactivation and cell growth after rapamycin treatment. Thus, a comprehensive molecular dissection of Pib2 demonstrates that each of its conserved regions differentially contribute to Pib2-mediated regulation of TORC1 activity.

Published: August 2022

The minimum rank of a graph G is the minimum of the ranks of all symmetric adjacency matrices of G. We present a new combinatorial bound for the minimum rank of an arbitrary graph G based on enumerating certain subsets of vertices of G satisfying matroid theoretic properties. We also present some computational and theoretical challenges associated with computing the minimum rank. This includes a conjecture that this bound on the minimum rank actually holds with equality for all graphs. History: This “Challenge” paper was invited by the Editor in Chief and based on the topics raised by the author at his plenary address at the 2022 INFORMS Computing Society Conference in Tampa, Florida.

Overcoming the Coordination Problem in New Marketplaces via Cryptographic Tokens
Authors: Bakos Yannis , Halaburda Hanna 
Published: August 2022

New platforms such as peer-to-peer marketplaces frequently face a “coordination problem” in attracting users, as potential users may be reluctant to join given the uncertainty of other users joining, and this could cause the new platform to fail. There are several mechanisms in the literature to help address this coordination problem, such as subsidies for early users and promises of refunds or buybacks if the platform fails; these mechanisms, however, are likely to favor incumbent and larger firms with established reputation and financial resources. Platform-specific tradable cryptographic tokens allow a platform such as a marketplace to trade future revenue for present revenue, which then can be used to address the coordination problem. If the new platform is capital-constrained, as is often the case for new entrants and unproven technology applications, then tokens can offer an attractive alternative. As this benefit results from the tradability of the tokens, regulators and policy makers should facilitate or at least not unduly constrain the issuance of tradable utility tokens by new platforms. There is no corresponding benefit from user anonymity, and thus no corresponding drawback from identity regulations to establish accountability.
The importance of periwound skin in wound healing: an overview of the evidence

Published: August 2022

The importance of the periwound skin as the ‘organ of healing’ in the skin should not be underestimated. This paper explores the numerous healing processes originating in the periwound skin, without which healing progression would not occur. This paper also explores how damage to the periwound skin is ubiquitous and can occur because of underlying pathology, misdiagnosis, mismanagement or the use of inappropriate treatments. As such, it is imperative that management strategies, including correct assessment of both wound bed and periwound skin, identify the correct treatment choice to lead to better patient/wound outcomes. Declaration of interest: The authors have no conflicts of interest.

Objective: To assess the prevalence of skin lesions and evaluate the clinical and sociodemographic factors associated with their presence in hospitalised patients. Method: This descriptive, cross-sectional, correlational study was performed in inpatient units and intensive care units of a cancer hospital in São Paulo, Brazil, after approval by the Institutional Research Ethics Committee. Data from hospitalised adult patients with cancer were collected during physical examinations and from medical records. A Chi-squared test, univariate analysis, a logistic regression model with results expressed as odds ratio (OR) and 95% confidence intervals (CI), and Classification and Regression Tree (CART) analysis were used to evaluate the data. Results: Of 341 patients, 80 had skin lesions, equating to an overall prevalence of 23.5%. The skin lesions included pressure injuries (10%), incontinence-associated dermatitis (6.7%), skin tears (6.5%), malignant wounds (3.8%) and complicated surgical wounds (3.2%). The factors associated with skin lesions in cancer patients were the use of disposable nappies (OR: 4.436) and age (59.1±15.1 years), according to the CART analysis, and the wearing of nappies (OR: 4.466, p<0.001), presence of ecchymosis (OR: 2.532, p<0.001) and infection (OR: 6.449, p=0.040), according to multiple regression analysis. Conclusion: This study contributed to knowledge about prevalence and associated factors of skin lesions in hospitalised patients with cancer, allowing the implementation of preventive measures.

Published: August 2022

Aim
To explore the individual factors (such as gender, division of household labor, childcare and elder care) and their impact on research activities in the Japanese nursing research community during the early stage of the COVID-19 pandemic from April to June in 2020.

Design
Cross-sectional study.

Methods
An online survey with a self-reported questionnaire was conducted on Japan Academy of Nursing Science members to explore the impacts of individual factors among Japanese nursing researchers from April to June 2020. A multivariate logistic regression model was used for data analysis.

Results
A total of 1,273 participants (90.7% female, 85.8% university faculty) were included in the analysis. This survey showed that no evidence of a significant gender gap was found in research activities in Japanese nursing researchers during the COVID-19 pandemic. Research activities during the pandemic were associated with time and motivation.
Global assessment of storm disaster-prone areas
Authors: Diodato Nazzareno , Borrelli Pasquale , Panagos Panos , Bellocchi Gianni 
Published: August 2022

Background
Advances in climate change research contribute to improved forecasts of hydrological extremes with potentially severe impacts on human societies and natural landscapes. Rainfall erosivity density (RED), i.e. rainfall erosivity (MJ mm hm-2 h-1 yr-1) per rainfall unit (mm), is a measure of rainstorm aggressiveness and a proxy indicator of damaging hydrological events.

Methods and findings
Here, using downscaled RED data from 3,625 raingauges worldwide and log-normal ordinary kriging with probability mapping, we identify damaging hydrological hazard-prone areas that exceed warning and alert thresholds (1.5 and 3.0 MJ hm-2 h-1, respectively). Applying exceedance probabilities in a geographical information system shows that, under current climate conditions, hazard-prone areas exceeding a 50% probability cover ~31% and ~19% of the world’s land at warning and alert states, respectively.

Conclusion
RED is identified as a key driver behind the spatial growth of environmental disruption worldwide (with tropical Latin America, South Africa, India and the Indian Archipelago most affected).
