‘… Or That Time She Cried …’
Authors: Bird Dúnlaith 
Published: June 2022

Abstract
This article examines Not I through the paradigm of keening (caoineadh), the Irish practice of mourning the dead, traditionally carried out by paid female performers. Keening, as a third-person lament and a socially-connotated form of female labour, offers a different vantage point on Beckett’s text, and interrogates Beckett’s engagement with gender, labour, and mourning more generally. Following an exploration of traditional keening practices and their repression by the Catholic Church, the article examines how this practice of “singing the dead” may inflect our understanding both of Mouth’s role in Not I, with its ‘posthumous feel’, and of the labour required from the performer to bring Mouth’s song to life.

Objective: Occupational surveys of doctors consistently show higher rates of depression and anxiety than reported in general population surveys, findings replicated in all other occupational groups, suggesting potential selection bias. We evaluated the comparative mental health of different occupations in Australia from the same sampling frame over the past 6 years and assessed whether COVID-19 differentially affected different occupational groups. Methods: We analysed six annual data waves (2015–2020) from the nationally representative ‘Household, Income, and Labour Dynamics in Australia’ study. Mental health (Mental Health Inventory–5 from the 36-Item Short Form Survey) and life satisfaction scores of doctors over this period were compared with five other professions and all other employees. Regression models were adjusted for age, gender, income and work hours. Two-way analysis of variance examined the comparative changes in mental health among occupations between 2019 and after exposure to the COVID-19 pandemic in late 2020. Results: The sample of 15,174 employed respondents included 106 doctors. The 5-year mean mental health score for doctors (M = 78.7; SD = 13.1) was significantly higher than that for teachers ( M = 75.6; SD = 14.9), nurses and midwives (M = 76.6; SD = 15.9), lawyers (M = 74.2; SD = 16.1), accountants (M = 74.2; SD = 16.5) and all other employed respondents (M = 73.1, SD = 16.7) ( p < 0.001). Cognitive wellbeing comparisons were similar. There were no significant changes in professionals’ mental health over this period except for an improvement in engineers and a decline for teachers. From 2019 to 2020, all occupations suffered mental health declines without any significant inter-occupational differences. Conclusion: Australian doctors identified from a population-based sample rather than occupational surveys reported better levels of mental health and greater life satisfaction than most professions prior to COVID-19 without experiencing the worsening seen in the general employed population over the past 5 years. From 2020, there was a mental health decline in all of the employed population, not disproportionately affecting doctors. Although over-representing Australian trained general practitioners, the results from both this sample and other tentative findings challenge the discourse in medical advocacy, but need more formal comparative studies to confirm.

Published: June 2022

While various studies have shown the influence on other writers of two of Bolivia’s most important intellectuals and proponents of critical Marxism, René Zavaleta Mercado and Alvaro García Linera, research on the relationship between the two is scarce. Analysis of their concepts of national classes, the commoner bloc, and the state indicates important points of agreement as well as divergence in their theoretical production. Si bien varios estudios han demostrado la influencia en otros escritores de dos de los intelectuales más importantes de Bolivia y defensores del marxismo crítico, René Zavaleta Mercado y Álvaro García Linera, la investigación sobre la relación entre los dos es escasa. Un análisis de sus conceptos de clases nacionales, el bloque plebeyo y el Estado indica importantes puntos de avenencia, así como divergencias en su producción teórica.
Mariátegui and the Search for the Latin American Proletariat
Authors: Friggeri Félix Pablo 
Published: June 2022

José Carlos Mariátegui’s “heroic creation” of Indo-American socialism had both political and epistemic dimensions and involved a rethinking of the revolutionary subject—the proletariat—in Latin America. This proletariat was, from Mariátegui’s perspective, an articulated subject centered on the indigenous. Consideration of Mariátegui’s work from a perspective that subverts the view of the historical/structural heterogeneity of Latin America and seeks a bridge among the region’s revolutionary currents in popular praxis may contribute to deepening the study of its potential for enriching the political and epistemological alternatives to the neoliberal project. La “creación heroica” del socialismo indoamericano de José Carlos Mariátegui tuvo dimensiones tanto políticas como epistémicas e implicó un replanteamiento del sujeto revolucionario—el proletariado—en América Latina. Este proletariado era, desde la perspectiva de Mariátegui, un sujeto articulado centrado en lo indígena. La consideración de la obra de Mariátegui desde una perspectiva que subvierta la visión de la heterogeneidad histórico-estructural de América Latina y busque un puente entre las corrientes revolucionarias de la región en la praxis popular puede contribuir a profundizar el estudio de su potencial de enriquecer las alternativas políticas y epistemológicas al proyecto neoliberal.

Objective To investigate the prognostic value for predicting mortality of partial pressure of oxygen/fraction of inspired oxygen (PaO2/FiO2), the Sequential Organ Failure Assessment (SOFA) score and D-dimer in elderly patients with sepsis. Methods This retrospective cohort study enrolled elderly patients with sepsis admitted to the intensive care unit (ICU) between January 2019 and October 2020. Patients were divided into a survival group and a non-survival group. Biomarkers, SOFA, Acute Physiology and Chronic Health Evaluation II and Glasgow Coma Scale scores were recorded within 24 h after admission to the ICU. Results A total of 135 elderly patients with sepsis were enrolled in the study: 89 were in the survival group and 46 were in the non-survival group at 28 days. Univariate and multivariate regression analyses demonstrated that PaO2/FiO2, SOFA and D-dimer were independently associated with 28-day mortality. The predictive performance for mortality of the combination of PaO2/FiO2, SOFA score and D-dimer (area under the receiver operating characteristic curve of 0.926) was higher than the values for the individual factors (0.761, 0.745 and 0.878, respectively). Conclusion The combination of PaO2/FiO2, SOFA score and D-dimer represents a promising tool and biomarker for predicting 28-day mortality of the elderly patients with sepsis.

Background: This study aimed to investigate the feasibility and accuracy of tattooing suspicious axillary lymph nodes with carbon suspension at the time of breast cancer (BC) diagnosis and the intraoperative correspondence between tattooed lymph node (TLN) and sentinel lymph node (SLN) in patients who underwent neoadjuvant chemotherapy (NACT). Methods: In this retrospective study, we analyzed consecutive BC patients who underwent NACT, between April 2019 and May 2021, at the Breast Unit of Sant‘Anna Hospital in Turin, Italy. Before NACT, all suspicious biopsied lymph nodes were marked with carbon suspension. All SLNs, TLNs, and axillary nodal dissection specimens were sent for histopathological examination. Results: The study group included a total of 49 patients with BC. The overall identification rate of TLNs was 83.7% (41/49; 95%, confidence interval - CI 0.70-0.92). In patients who underwent target axillary dissection (TAD) the carbon tattooing had an intraoperative identification rate of 84.4% (27/32; 95% CI 0.67-0.95) while, in the case of axillary lymph node dissection, TLNs were detected in 82.3% (14/17; 95% CI 0.56-0.96) of patients. The correlation between TLN and SLN was 71.8% (23/32). Conclusions: These results confirmed that tattooing axillary lymph nodes has an acceptable identification rate. We also confirmed that this procedure, in addition to SLN biopsy, improves the accuracy of surgical axillary staging.

Background: In deceased donor kidney transplantation (KT), the use of hypothermic machine perfusion (HMP) has been acquiring the status of best practice in the pre-transplant management of kidney grafts. Two types of HMP are currently available, oxygenated HMP and non-oxygenated HMP. However, data on the real clinical impact of oxygenation on KT outcome are still heterogeneous. Methods: Retrospective study on a cohort of 103 patients transplanted with a single kidney graft that was managed either with end-ischemic oxygenated (O2 group, Waves Machine, n = 51, 49.5%) or non-oxygenated HMP (no-O2 group, Life Port Kidney Transporter Machine, n = 52, 50.5%), during the period January 2016–December 2020. Oxygenation was performed at pO2 21%. Results: The median cold ischemia time was 29 h:40 min [IQR 26 h:55 min–31 h:10 min] and the prevalence of grafts from extended criteria donors (ECD) was 46.7%, with a median kidney donor profile index (KDPI) of 72 [41–94]. The study groups were homogeneous in terms of recipient characteristics, ischemia times and donor characteristics. O2 and no-O2 groups showed comparable outcomes in terms of delayed graft function (O2 vs no-O2, 21.5% vs 25%, p = 0.58), vascular (0.2% vs 0.2%, p > 0.99) and urologic (13.7% vs 11.5%, p = 0.77) complications, and episodes of graft rejection (11.7% vs 7.7%, p = 0.52). At 1 year follow up, even creatinine serum levels were comparable between the groups (1.27 mg/dL [1.09 and 1.67] vs 1.4 mg/dL [1.9–1.78], p = 0.319), with similar post-transplant trend ( p = 0.870). No significant benefit was either observed in ECD or KDPI > 60 subgroups, respectively. Conclusions: Oxygenation at pO2 21% during HMP seems not to significantly enhance the KT outcomes in terms of postoperative complications or graft function.

Introduction To describe the clinical and laboratory features of systemic lupus erythematosus (SLE) enteritis and to establish a predictive model of risk and severity of lupus enteritis (LE). Methods Records of patients with SLE complaining about acute digestive symptoms were reviewed. The predictive nomogram for the diagnosis of LE was constructed by using R. The accuracy of the model was tested with correction curves. The receiver operating characteristic curve (ROC curve) program and a Decision curve analysis (DCA) were used for the verification of LE model. Receiver operating characteristic curve was also employed for evaluation of factors in the prediction of severity of LE. Results During the eight year period, 46 patients were in the LE group, while 32 were in the non-LE group. Abdominal pain, emesis, D-dimer >5 μg/mL, hypo-C3, and anti-SSA positive remained statistically significant and were included into the prediction model. Area under the curve (AUC) of ROC curve in this model was 0.909. Correction curve indicated consistency between the predicted rate and actual diagnostic rates. The DCA showed that the LE model was of benefit. Forty-four patients were included in developing the prediction model of LE severity. Infection, SLE disease activity index (SLEDAI), CT score, and new CT score were validated as risk factors for LE severity. The AUC of the combined SLEDAI, infection and new CT score were 0.870. Conclusion The LE model exhibits good predictive ability to assess LE risk in SLE patients with acute digestive symptoms. The combination of SLEDAI, infection, and new CT score could improve the assessment of LE severity.
Use of Fluoroquinolones or Sulfamethoxazole-Trimethoprim Compared to Β-Lactams for Oral Step-Down Therapy in Hospitalized Patients With Uncomplicated Enterobacterales Bacteremia

Published: June 2022

Background Antibiotic therapy for uncomplicated Enterobacterales bacteremia from a urinary source has traditionally consisted of fluoroquinolones (FQs) and sulfamethoxazole-trimethoprim (SXT). However, adverse events associated with FQs and emerging antimicrobial resistance have led to alternative agents, specifically oral Β-lactams (OBLs), being utilized despite concern of subtherapeutic serum concentrations related to their low relative bioavailability. Objective To compare efficacy of antibiotic therapies with bioavailability differences in patients with uncomplicated bacteremia from a urinary source. Methods This was a retrospective study comparing clinical efficacy in hospitalized adult patients receiving OBL or FQ/SXT. Patients were required to receive at least 48 hours of appropriate intravenous antibiotic therapy and at least one dose of oral therapy. The primary outcome was all-cause hospital readmission within 30 days of discharge. Secondary outcomes included readmission with recurrent infectious etiology and readmission due to Clostridioides difficile infection. Results Of 210 eligible patients, 91 received FQ/SXT and 119 received OBL. There was no difference between the groups in all-cause hospital readmission (FQ/SXT: 16.5%; OBL: 14.3%) ( P = 0.660 [95% confidence interval, CI = −0.076, 0.120]) or readmission with recurrent bacteremia (FQ/SXT: 0%; OBL: 3.4%) ( P = 0.135). There was a significant difference in repeat hospital admission with recurrent urinary tract infection (UTI) (FQ/SXT: 0%, OBL: 5.0%) ( P = 0.037). Conclusion and Relevance OBLs appear to be non-inferior to FQ/SXT in the rate of all-cause hospital readmission within 30 days. However, OBLs may be associated with increased readmissions with recurrent UTI.

Published: June 2022

Background: Attention-deficit/hyperactivity disorder (ADHD) is a known risk factor for substance-related problems (SRP) during adolescence, but the nature of this relationship and the importance of co-occurring conduct problems are not fully understood. Methods: Data stem from a linked dataset between a large population-based survey conducted in 2012 of Norwegian adolescents aged 16 to 19, and registry-based data from specialized child and adolescent mental health services ( n = 9,411). Results: Adolescents with “ADHD + high conduct problems” had increased risk of SRP (odds ratios = 2.37–10.14). Adolescents with “ADHD only” had very similar risk of SRP as adolescents from the general population with low symptoms of conduct problems. Relative to boys, girls with “ADHD + high conduct problems” appeared to have somewhat higher risk for SRP. Conclusion: The present study suggests that the risk for SRP among adolescent with ADHD is largely driven by co-existing conduct problems.

Published: June 2022

Objective: To evaluate intervention characteristics and components within behavioral sleep interventions in school-aged children with ADHD and examine evidence related to effectiveness. Method: A systematic review was conducted using PsycINFO, Embase, MEDLINE, PubMed, and OpenGray. The subsequent meta-analysis used sleep outcomes to produce comparable effect sizes (Hedges’ g) and compare intervention effects between randomized controlled trials and pre-post studies. Results: Eleven articles satisfied the inclusion criteria (562 children, across all groups, aged 5–14 years, M = 8.71). Studies reported improvements in sleep although there was marked heterogeneity between studies and limited use of objective sleep measures within them. On average, intervention groups improved more than control groups in the five randomized controlled trials (−0.46, 95% CI = [−0.58, −0.35], k = 4). Conclusion: The findings support the use of behavioral sleep interventions for school-aged children with ADHD. Findings suggest that brief, individualized intervention may be more effective than standardized.
Exploring Intended and Unintended Reactions to Healthy Weight and Lifestyle Advertisements: An Online Experiment
Authors: Jongenelis Michelle , Dixon Helen , Scully Maree , Morley Belinda 
Published: June 2022

Background To address concerns that healthy weight and lifestyle campaigns (HWLCs) could have unintended psychological or behavioral consequences, this study tested reactions to TV advertisements from two HWLCs: LiveLighter® (employs graphic health effects messaging) and Swap It Don’t Stop It (employs animation and light-hearted messaging). Methods An online between-subjects experiment tested reactions to one of five advertisements: “Toxic Fat”; “Sugary Drinks” (both from LiveLighter); “Become a Swapper”; “How to Swap It” (both from Swap It); and “HSBC Bank” (control) among 2,208 adults from Western Australia and Victoria, Australia. Responses assessed were cognitive and emotional reactions, behavioral intentions, internalized weight bias, antifat attitudes, self-esteem and body dissatisfaction. Results The HWLC advertisements prompted favorable cognitive reactions and weak to neutral positive and negative emotional responses. HWLC advertisements promoted stronger intentions to engage in adaptive lifestyle behaviors compared with the control advertisement. Intention to engage in maladaptive behaviors (e.g., skipping meals) was low overall and did not differ by condition. Compared with the control condition, participants who saw LiveLighter “Sugary Drinks” showed weaker disagreement with antifat attitudes; however, mean antifat attitude scores were still at the low end of the scale. HWLC advertisements did not promote internalized weight bias, reduced self-esteem or body dissatisfaction compared with the control advertisement. Conclusions Overall, HWLC advertisements performed favorably compared with the control advertisement and showed no clear evidence of adverse impacts. Findings suggest HWLC advertisements may not promote negative psychological and behavioral consequences and can continue to be used in obesity prevention efforts.
Sluggish cognitive tempo: Association with neuropsychological test scores, motor incoordination, and dysgraphia in elementary school children

Published: June 2022

Research on the relationship between sluggish cognitive tempo (SCT) and scores on neuropsychological tests (such as those measuring processing speed and reaction time) is inconclusive, and the association between SCT and motor incoordination and dysgraphia has not been objectively investigated. Mothers of 413 elementary school children (6–12 years of age) rated their children on the Pediatric Behavior Scale (PBS), which yields psychological problem scores, including SCT. Children were administered an extensive battery of neuropsychological tests assessing processing and performance speed, working memory, immediate and delayed recall, sustained attention, response inhibition, cognitive flexibility, fine motor manipulative skill, verbal fluency and retrieval, set shifting, and interference control, as well as intelligence and reading and math achievement. Only three of the 19 correlations between SCT and neuropsychological scores were significant, and all involved graphomotor tests (two timed and one untimed). In regression analysis, the strongest independent predictor of SCT was the maternal PBS incoordination factor score, followed by ratings of autism, inattention, and depression. Neuropsychological test scores did not contribute significantly more to predicting SCT. Among the incoordination PBS factor items, clumsy and draws or writes poorly were significant SCT predictors. Our novel and unexpected findings showed that motor incoordination was a stronger correlate of SCT than other variables assessed in our study, including those previously linked with SCT. Future SCT research needs to include measures of incoordination and dysgraphia in order to replicate and expand upon the current findings. Our results suggest that SCT traits are not reliably measured by currently available neuropsychological tests.
