Generational perspective on asthma self‐management in the Bangladeshi and Pakistani community in the United Kingdom: A qualitative study
Authors: Ahmed Salina , Pinnock Hilary , Dowrick Anna , Steed Liz 
Published: August 2022

AbstractBackgroundSelf‐management strategies improve asthma outcomes, although interventions for South Asian populations have been less effective than in White populations. Both self‐management and culture are dynamic, and factors such as acculturation and generation have not always been adequately reflected in existing cultural interventions. We aimed to explore the perspectives of Bangladeshi and Pakistani people in the United Kingdom, across multiple generations (first, second and third/fourth), on how they self‐manage their asthma, with a view to suggesting recommendations for cultural interventions.MethodsWe purposively recruited Bangladeshi and Pakistani participants, with an active diagnosis of asthma from healthcare settings. Semi‐structured interviews in the participants' choice of language (English, Sylheti, Standard Bengali or Urdu) were conducted, and data were analysed thematically.ResultsTwenty‐seven participants (13 Bangladeshi and 14 Pakistani) were interviewed. There were generational differences in self‐management, influenced by complex cultural processes experienced by South Asians as part of being an ethnic minority group. Individuals from the first generation used self‐management strategies congruent to traditional beliefs such as ‘sweating’ and often chose to travel to South Asian countries. Generations born and raised in the United Kingdom learnt and experimented with self‐management based on their fused identities and modified their approach depending on whether they were in familial or peer settings. Acculturative stress, which was typically higher in first generations who had migration‐related stressors, influenced the priority given to asthma self‐management throughout generations. The amount and type of available asthma information as well as social discussions within the community and with healthcare professionals also shaped asthma self‐management.ConclusionsRecognizing cultural diversity and its influence of asthma self‐management can help develop effective interventions tailored to the lives of South Asian people.Patient or Public ContributionPatient and Public Involvement colleagues were consulted throughout to ensure that the study and its materials were fit for purpose.

Published: August 2022

AbstractIntroductionA lack of knowledge about attention‐deficit/hyperactivity disorder (ADHD) can contribute to feelings of distress and difficulty in seeking and accepting an ADHD diagnosis. The present study uses a Delphi consensus design to investigate the psychoeducational needs of adults with ADHD and the information about ADHD they would like included in digital health interventions for adults with ADHD. Inclusion of perspectives of service users in developing such interventions ensures that they are evidence based and addresses the risks of engagement barriers.MethodsThe expert panel consisted of 43 adults with ADHD (age range: 23–67 years). Panel members were asked to rate the importance of the proposed topics and provide additional suggestions. Suggested topics and topics that did not achieve consensus were included for ranking in the second round.ResultsInterquartile ratings were used to determine consensus. A high consensus was achieved in both rounds, with an agreement on 94% of topics in the first round and 98% in the second round. Most topics were rated as important or essential.ConclusionsThe findings highlighted that adults with ADHD want to learn about many different aspects of ADHD and the importance of considering their perspectives when developing psychosocial interventions. Findings can be applied when creating psychoeducational content for adult ADHD.Patient or Public ContributionAdults with ADHD were recruited to the Delphi panel to use an experts‐by‐experience approach. In doing so, we are engaging service users in the development of a psychoeducational smartphone app. The evaluation of the app will involve interviews with app users. Additionally, the present study was developed and conducted with ADHD Ireland, a charity based in Ireland that advocates for people with ADHD.

Published: August 2022

AbstractThis paper performs a comprehensive analysis of academic research on impulse buying following a systematic literature review approach. Drawing on the TCCM framework suggested by Paul and Rosado‐Serrano, we synthesize the impulse buying literature and develop a future research agenda. Accordingly, this review synthesizes impulse buying research in terms of theory development, context, characteristics, and methodologies to examine the development of the literature over time. This systematic review shows that impulse buying research is fragmented and still developing due to its transition from a traditional retail environment into different online channels. Furthermore, this paper proposes a conceptual framework based on the literature synthesis, presenting antecedents and mediators of impulse buying behaviour. Finally, this review identifies overlooked areas in impulse buying literature and provides insightful directions to advance research in the domain. Overall, this research effort makes a significant contribution to consumer behaviour literature, specifically to impulse buying literature.

AbstractIntroductionDurable techniques that prevent postoperative inguinal hernia (IH) after robot‐assisted radical prostatectomy (RARP) have not been established. This study evaluated the long‐term efficacy of a postoperative IH prevention technique that uses no artificial agents to assess the characteristics of IH occurrence after introducing this technique.Patients and MethodsWe retrospectively analyzed 201 consecutive patients who underwent RARP at our institution between September 2011 and February 2014. In total, 189 cases were eligible for the study. The non‐IH prevention and IH prevention groups comprised 72 and 117 cases, respectively. We compared the incidence of IH between the two groups using Kaplan–Meier curves. Risk factors for IH in the prevention group were determined via multivariable logistic regression analysis.ResultsThe rate of IH occurrence was 20.8% (15 cases) in the nonprevention group and 8.5% (10 cases) in the prevention group, with median follow‐up periods of 99.5 and 89.9 months, respectively. The Kaplan–Meier curves indicated a significant difference between the two groups (p = 0.011). Only cutting of the vas deferens significantly contributed to reduced occurrence of IH in multivariable analysis (p = 0.047). After reviewing the intraoperative videos, insufficient separation of the vas deferens was considered the main cause of IH in the prevention group.ConclusionOur simple prevention technique with no artificial agents had a durable effect on IH prevention after RARP over a median follow‐up period of more than 7 years. Cutting the vas deferens effectively prevented IH after RARP.
Apolygus lucorum effector Al6 promotes insect feeding performance on soybean plants: RNAi analysis and feeding behaviour study with electrical penetration graph

Published: August 2022

AbstractThe mirid bug Apolygus lucorum, a dominant mirid species in northern China, is a notorious polyphagous pest with more than 200 hosts, including several major crops such as cotton and soybean, resulting in massive economic loss. Studies of insect salivary effectors may provide a novel control strategy for A. lucorum. An A. lucorum effector, that is, Al6, that inhibits plant immunity by using glutathione peroxidase to repress reactive oxidase accumulation was previously identified. In this study, we further explored the molecular functions of Al6 associated with feeding behaviour and insect survival on soybean, a major host of A. lucorum, using RNA interference and electrical penetration graph (EPG) techniques. We initially observed the injury symptom of this mirid bug and characterized feeding behaviour on soybean leaves using EPG. Our results revealed that A. lucorum preferred to feed on young plant organs such as tender leaves, shoots and buds. This mirid bug used cell rupture as a feeding strategy to ingest cell contents from plant tissues. Subsequently, we silenced the Al6 gene using RNAi and investigated the feeding behaviour, honeydew excretion, body weight, and survival rates of A. lucorum on soybean after Al6 knockdown. Our results demonstrated that silencing of Al6 significantly reduced feeding duration, amount of honeydew secretion, body weight, and survival rates of A. lucorum. Thus, our findings provide a novel molecular target of plant‐mediated RNAi for the control of A. lucorum.
Microstructural examination of interactions between chromia‐based refractory and nuclear glass in a melter

Published: August 2022

AbstractThis study shows the effects of nuclear waste glass production on Monofrax K‐3 refractory corrosion. A continuously fed research‐scale melter containing an Fe‐ and Ni‐rich simulated nuclear waste feed with borosilicate glass‐forming chemicals was cyclically melted at 1150°C and idled at 1050°C for a total of 11 weeks. Chemical maps using scanning electron microscopy show the interactions between the quenched melt and the refractory. Nanoscale X‐ray‐computed tomography was used for a three‐dimensional visualization of certain parts of the interface. Unreacted K‐3 consists of primarily corundum (Al,Cr)2O3 and spinel (Fe2+,Mg)(Al,Cr)2O4 interlocking crystalline phases. Some of the Cr from the refractory interacts with the Ni and Fe from the melt to form a reaction layer comprising (Ni,Fe2+)(Cr,Fe3+)2O4 spinel crystals. Simultaneously, melt components (Na,Si) infiltrate into the refractory. This interaction proceeds at the expense of the integrity of the refractory structure. Intact refractory grains (e.g., (Al,Cr)2O3) as well as the reaction layer itself can lose mechanical integrity and spall off into the melt, especially near the top of the melter. As the reaction layer can be a protective boundary for the refractory against further melt infiltration, a reduction in the reaction layer thickness allows an increase in refractory corrosion.

AbstractWhite light‐emitting diodes (WLEDs) are always fabricated by a combination of the near‐ultraviolet (n‐UV)‐emitting LED chip with tricolor emitting phosphors. However, improving the color rendering index (CRI) is limited due to the absence of cyan composition for common commercial combinations. Based on this, a series of blue–cyan dual‐peaks emission Ca4−xLu2xHf1−xGe3O12(CLHGO):Bi3+ phosphors with unique adjustability are developed by the solid solution design strategy. All the samples belong to the garnet structure with the Ia3d space group. Two relatively independent segregation structures [Ca4HfGe3O12] and [Ca3Lu2Ge3O12] are established in the samples. When Bi3+ ions enter into the highly symmetrical hexagon coordination environment, a special phenomenon appears that the emission peaks consist of two stabilized narrowband emission bands at 435 and 475 nm, their intensity ratio could change continuously with the increase of solid solubility. All these results are confirmed by means of excitation and emission spectra, first principles calculation and decay curves. The Ca3.4Lu1.2Hf0.4Ge3O12:Bi3+ sample, with a high efficiency around 84.1% and an excellent thermal stability (65.6%@150°C), is chosen as the optimal sample to improve the blue and cyan compositions for full spectrum emission. Using the Ca3.4Lu1.2Hf0.4Ge3O12:Bi3+, commercial green (Ba, Sr)2SiO4:Eu2+ phosphor, and commercial red CaAlSiN3:Eu2+ phosphor on a 360‐nm n‐UV LED chip to fabricate WLED, which successfully bridge the cyan gap and the CRI value of the as‐fabricated warm‐white LED reaches 90.2. The previous results confirmed that CLHGO:Bi3+ phosphors have promising application prospect in the development of n‐UV‐pumped warm‐white LEDs with high‐CRI values. The unique property performance originating from independent segregation structures provides more reference for the research on photoluminescence mechanism.
Fabrication of hierarchically porous silicon carbonitride monolith using branched polysilazane and freeze casting method without crosslinking step: Effect of polymer additive to aligned macropore structure
Authors: Huh Tae‐Hwan , Lee Taek Seung , Kwark Young‐Je 
Published: August 2022

AbstractA hierarchically porous SiCN monolith with aligned macropores was prepared using a branch‐structured polysilazane, silsesquiazane (SSQZ), as a precursor and polymer additive, through the freeze casting method. As polymer additives, polystyrene (PS) and poly(methyl methacrylate), which have different compatibilities with SSQZ, were used to confirm the effect on the pore formation. In addition, the pore formability according to the molecular weight was investigated using PSs with different molecular weights. When the SSQZ and high‐molecular‐weight PS (HPS) were used, a porous SiCN with micro/meso/macropore structure could be fabricated because of the structural stability of the SSQZ and high molecular weight of HPS. The hierarchically porous SiCN monolith was successfully manufactured using SSQZ and HPS with 639 m2/g of specific surface area, 0.36 cm3/g of pore volume, and 2.1 nm of average pore size. The hierarchically porous SiCN monolith with high HPS content has improved dimensional stability to show its compressive fracture energy.

Published: August 2022

Abstract

Aims
Legionella pneumophila (Lp), a human pathogen, has been detected in windscreen wiper fluid reservoirs (WWFRs) where commercial screen washes (CSWs) are commonly added. Limited information is available on CSWs against planktonic Lp; however, responses of sessile Lp and planktonic Lp pre-acclimated in nutrient-limited water to CSWs remain unknown. This study thus investigates the antibacterial effects of CSWs on sessile and starved planktonic Lp, in comparison with unstarved Lp.

Methods and Results
Lp biofilms were produced on glass and WWFR materials of high-density polyethylene (HDPE) and polypropylene (PP). Planktonic Lp with and without acclimation in tap water were prepared. Log reductions in cell counts averaged 0.4–5.0 for 10 brands of CSWs against sessile Lp and 1.0–3.9 and 0.9–4.9, respectively, against starved and unstarved planktonic Lp for five CSWs. Both biofilm formation and acclimation in tap water enhanced Lp resistance to CSWs. Significantly different log-reduction values among CSW brands were observed for sessile Lp on HDPE and planktonic Lp regardless of acclimation (p &lt; 0.05).

Conclusions
Biofilm formation, starvation acclimation and CSW brand are crucial factors influencing Lp response to CSWs.

Significance and Impact of Study
This study advances the knowledge of Lp reaction in anthropogenic water systems with CSWs.

AbstractAimsThe study aim was to examine the impact of a home‐based programme intervention on organizational contexts, implementation processes and organizational capacity outcomes from multicultural, multilingual participants working at community‐based organizations.DesignThis was a sequential exploratory, mixed‐methods longitudinal study using community‐based participatory research principles.SampleTwenty participants from nine multicultural, multilingual community‐based organizations were in this public health initiative's intervention to develop community‐designed, home‐based programmes.MethodsCapacity building providers delivered the intervention selected by the funders. Workshop outcomes were descriptively measured in April/May 2019. In April/May and November 2019, participants completed surveys about organizational contexts, implementation processes and organizational capacity outcomes, which were analysed with t‐tests using the organization as the unit of analysis. Qualitative data were analysed using content analysis.ResultsSeven programmes were new and two were modified. As workshop outcomes, 59% of participants reported increased overall implementation knowledge and 74% reported capacity building providers as the most helpful resource. After 6 to 7 months, no statistically significant changes were noted in organizational contexts, implementation processes or organizational capacity outcomes. Participants benefited from capacity building because they had programmes developed, formed partnerships with capacity building providers, gained implementation knowledge, and engaged in networking.ConclusionParticipants reported excellent individual and organizational strengths. Many Initiative factors contributed to no statistical changes. Namely, there was no opportunity for baseline data; limited community‐based organization engagement in the intervention model selection, timeline and processes; the Initiative's timeline did not fit participants' timeline; insufficient time to develop culturally and linguistically appropriate programmes; late literature review abstracts; lack of adequate, planful and paid capacity building time; and a contract requirement to have the programme due when it was not implementable. These Initiative design factors, as reported by participants, limited the Initiative's home‐based programme development.ImpactThis study highlights the strengths of participants, community‐based organizations and capacity building providers. Model selection, timeline and budget were identified as key factors for equitable implementation in multicultural, multilingual organizations.
Scoping review: Diagnostic reasoning as a component of clinical reasoning in the U.S. primary care nurse practitioner education
Authors: Smith Sheila K. , Benbenek Mary M. , Bakker Caitlin J. , Bockwoldt Denise 
Published: August 2022

AbstractAimsDiagnostic Reasoning (DR) is an essential competency requiring mastery for safe, independent Nurse Practitioner (NP) practice, but little is known about DR content included in NP education programs. The aims of this study were to identify whether and how the concept of DR is addressed in NP education.DesignWe conducted a scoping review on DR‐related content and teaching innovations in U.S. primary care NP education programs, with implications for NP education programs worldwide. Concepts and principles with global applicability include: conducting focused and hypothesis‐directed histories and exams, generating the problem statement, formulating the differential diagnosis, appropriate and relevant diagnostic testing, determining the working diagnosis and developing evidence‐based, patient‐centred management plans.Data sourcesN = 1115 articles retrieved from Medline, Embase, PsycINFO, and CINAHL for the period 2005–2021. Forty‐one scholarly articles met inclusion/exclusion criteria.Review methodsData were extracted, synthesized and grouped by theoretical frameworks, content included, educational interventions and assessment measures.ResultsMost articles provided descriptions of approaches for teaching NP clinical or diagnostic reasoning. Ten papers directly referenced the current science and theory of DR.ConclusionThe US NP education literature addressing DR is limited and demonstrates a lack of shared conceptualizations of DR. Whilst numerous components of DR are identifiable in the literature, a robust teaching/learning scholarship for DR has not yet been established in the US NP education literature.ImpactWhilst primary care NP education programs are beginning to incorporate DR education into their curricula, little research has been conducted to demonstrate the effectiveness of educational outcomes. Increased integration of DR content into NP education is needed, including increased educational research on teaching DR competencies.Patient or public contributionNo patient or public contribution was included in this review, as the public is generally not familiar with DR or its teaching approaches.

AbstractAimsTo explore registered nurses' experiences of patient safety in intensive care during COVID‐19.DesignA qualitative interview study informed by constructivism.MethodSemi‐structured interviews were conducted and audio‐recorded with 19 registered nurses who worked in intensive care during COVID‐19 between May and July 2021. Interviews were transcribed verbatim and thematically analysed utilizing framework.ResultsTwo key themes were identified. ‘On a war footing’—an unprecedented situation which describes the situation nurses faced, and the actions are taken to prepare for the safe delivery of care. ‘Doing the best we can’—Safe Delivery of Care which describes the ramifications of the actions taken on short‐ and long‐term patient safety including organization of care, missed and suboptimal care and communication. Both themes were embedded in the landscape of Staff Well‐being and Peer Support.ConclusionNurses reported an increase in patient safety risks which they attributed to the dilution of skill mix and fragmentation of care. Nurses demonstrated an understanding of the holistic and long‐term impacts on patient safety and recovery from critical illness.ImpactThis study explored the perceived impact of COVID‐19 on patient safety in intensive care from a nursing perspective. Dilution of skill mix, where specialist critical care registered nurses were diluted with registered nurses with no critical care experience, and the fragmentation of care was perceived to lead to reduced quality of care and increased adverse events and risk of harm which were not consistently formally reported. Furthermore, nurses demonstrated a holistic and long‐term appreciation of patient safety. These findings should be considered as part of future nursing workforce modelling and patient safety strategies by intensive care leaders and managers. No public or patient contribution to this study. The study aims and objectives were developed in collaboration with health care professionals.
