Contextual factors influencing medicines-related interventions to support safe transitions for care home residents post hospital discharge: a systematic review and meta-ethnographic synthesis
Authors: Kandiah Janani , Nazar Hamde , Blacklock Jeanette , Robinson Anna , Wright David 
Published: November 2022

Abstract
Background
Residents of care or nursing homes are at a higher risk of medication-related harm, especially during care transitions. No medicines-related intervention has been identified that supports the safe transition for these residents moving into their residence following hospital discharge. A model of care integrating a number of intervention components is suggested to be most effective

Aim
To investigate, via a systematic review and meta-ethnography, the factors which influence the impact of medicines related interventions.

Method
In December 2020, Pubmed, MEDLINE, EMBASE, PsycINFO, and CINAHL Complete were systematically searched. All studies reporting on medicines-related interventions for residents following hospital discharge were included. Quality assessment was undertaken with a validated tool. Meta-ethnography was used to investigate the factors which influenced how interventions did, or did not work. Findings were mapped to a validated conceptual framework for integrated care.

Results
From 3884 studies, nine met the inclusion criteria and were analysed. These were generally of medium quality (n = 6). The interventions were diverse: some tackled the transition process, some tackled follow-up care and some interventions involved both. The meta-ethnography, using the a priori conceptual framework, captured factors reported within the studies that influenced implementation, delivery and/or outcomes.

Conclusion
The review and synthesis informed the development of a conceptual model for transitionary care for this population group. Researchers and decision-makers can use this as a tool to understand their local context and inform future intervention design, implementation and evaluation in this clinical area.

Abstract
Purpose
To compare three health-related quality of life (HRQoL) instruments in detecting the effect of distance visual acuity (VA) on generic HRQoL in an adult population.

Methods
We used cross-sectional, population-based data from a nationwide health survey conducted in Finland in 2011–2012. It included three self-reported HRQoL instruments, EuroQol-5 Dimension (EQ-5D), 15D, and EUROHIS-QOL8, and a health examination in which habitual distance VA was measured binocularly. We assessed 3764 survey participants aged 30 years and older with information available on these parameters. The comparability and sensitivity of the instruments were evaluated using Pearson correlation coefficients and multivariable linear regression in different VA groups.

Results
EQ-5D and 15D index scores showed strong positive correlation (0.65–0.74) with each other regardless of distance VA, whereas EUROHIS-QOL8 index score showed moderate-to-strong correlation (0.46–0.79) with EQ-5D and 15D. All three instruments showed a negative trend with deteriorating VA, although EQ-5D and 15D showed better sensitivity than EUROHIS-QOL8. When adjusted for age, gender, and co-morbidities, adequate vision (VA 0.63–0.8), weak vision (VA 0.32–0.5), and impaired vision or worse (VA ≤ 0.25) were independently associated with declined EQ-5D and 15D, whereas declined EUROHIS-QOL8 was associated only with adequate and weak vision.

Conclusion
All three instruments can be viable tools in evaluating the relation between vision and HRQoL. While 15D is preferred due to its wide coverage of dimensions, EQ-5D can be an equal alternative, as it has less respondent burden. The feasibility of EUROHIS-QOL8 on detecting differences between lower VA levels may require further evidence.
The interdependence between market structure and the quality of audited reports: the case of non-audit services
Authors: Bleibtreu Christopher , Stefani Ulrike 
Published: November 2022

AbstractThis paper addresses the effects of a prohibition of providing non-audit services (NAS) to audit clients. By combining a strategic auditor–client game with a circular market-matching model that has an endogenous number of auditors, we take into account the interdependence between the auditors’ and clients’ incentives, the market structure, and the quality of audited reports. We show that the regulation’s effects depend on the preexisting audit market concentration and the types of blacklisted NAS. In sharp contrast to the effects that regulators desire, a prohibition of providing NAS to audit clients can further increase audit market concentration and decrease the quality of audited reports if the fees that auditors previously earned from providing the blacklisted NAS were relatively high, compared to the reduction in audit costs that result from spillovers. In contrast, a prohibition of the NAS that generate intense spillovers and low NAS fees can have the unexpected—but desired—effect of decreasing market concentration; however, reporting quality also decreases.
Constructing Universities for Democracy
Authors: Kristinsson Sigurður 
Published: November 2022

AbstractUniversities can sharpen their commitment to democracy through institutional change. This might be resisted by a traditional understanding of universities. The question arises whether universities have defining purposes that demarcate possible university policy, strategic planning, and priority setting. These are significant questions because while universities are among our most stable long-term institutions, there is little consensus on what they are, what they are for, and what makes them valuable. This paper argues that universities can in fact be organized around a wide variety of purposes without thereby becoming any less real as universities. Normative discourse around universities should therefore be unafraid to consider novel ideas that test the limits of our current university concept and our entrenched practices. The argument applies fresh insights from feminist philosophy. Haslanger’s (Haslanger, S. 2000. Gender and race: (What) are they? (What) do we want them to be? Noûs 34(1), 31-55, Haslanger, S. 2005. What are we talking about? The semantics and politics of social kinds. Hypatia 20(4): 10-26, Haslanger, S. 2012. Resisting reality: Social construction and social critique. Oxford University Press.) ameliorative account of gender and race provides a model for how to frame novel and critical ideas about universities. Ásta’s (Ásta. 2018. Categories we live by: The construction of sex, gender, race, and other social categories. New York: Oxford University Press.) conferralist framework explains how universities are socially constructed and where our university concept, social behavior, and normative discourse fits into that construction. Stakeholders have the power to create the social fact of whether an institution is a university and what being a university means in each context. However, stakeholders are a heterogenous group and contemporary universities are fragmented institutions in desperate need for an ameliorative account that would guide their construction toward democratic value. That account can build on a distinction between valuing universities as expressions of democracy, its symbols, components, and causal agents.
Pd-Doped SSZ-13 for Low-T NOx Adsorption: an Operando FT-IR Spectroscopy Study

Published: November 2022

AbstractIn this study, mechanistic aspects of NO adsorption/desorption over a home-made Pd/SSZ-13 passive NOx adsorber (PNA) catalyst are investigated. Operando FT-IR spectroscopy and microreactor experiments are performed to envisage the performance of the catalyst and the pathway involved in NO adsorption, with particular emphasis to the impact of species such as C3H6 and CO. In the absence of C3H6 and CO, NO is observed to adsorb as nitrosyls (anhydrous and hydrated) over both Pd2+ and Pd+ species, and as nitrates. 80 μmolNOx/gcat (NO/Pd molar ratio of 0.8) are adsorbed. The stability of nitrosyls is higher in comparison to the nitrates in that the former initially dehydrate and further decompose at elevated temperatures (> 300 °C) leading to the evolution of NO. The presence of CO and C3H6 negatively affects the amounts of NO adsorbed (53 and 45 μmolNOx/gcat, respectively) due to the reduction of Pd sites. CO admission to the catalyst forms a variety of carbonyl species over Pd2+, Pd+ and Pd0 sites which upon NO admission are readily displaced and NO is adsorbed as hydrated/anhydrous nitrosyls of Pdn+. The nitrosyls so formed exhibit lower thermal stability in comparison to nitrosyls observed in the absence of CO and decompose below 300 °C. The addition of C3H6 leads to the apparent formation of oxidized species like acetone, acrolein and acetates, besides propylene adsorption. The NO adsorption in the presence of C3H6 leads to the formation of Pdn+(NO)(X) complexes; upon heating the decomposition of this complexes is observed at low temperatures along with propylene and water desorption. Formation of organic nitro-compounds is also observed that decompose at higher temperatures.
Recent advances in developing high-performance organic hole transporting materials for inverted perovskite solar cells
Authors: Sun Xianglang , Zhu Zonglong , Li Zhong’an 
Published: November 2022

AbstractInverted perovskite solar cells (PVSCs) have recently made exciting progress, showing high power conversion efficiencies (PCEs) of 25% in single-junction devices and 30.5% in silicon/perovskite tandem devices. The hole transporting material (HTM) in an inverted PVSC plays an important role in determining the device performance, since it not only extracts/transports holes but also affects the growth and crystallization of perovskite film. Currently, polymer and self-assembled monolayer (SAM) have been considered as two types of most promising HTM candidates for inverted PVSCs owing to their high PCEs, high stability and adaptability to large area devices. In this review, recent encouraging progress of high-performance polymer and SAM-based HTMs is systematically reviewed and summarized, including molecular design strategies and the correlation between molecular structure and device performance. We hope this review can inspire further innovative development of HTMs for wide applications in highly efficient and stable inverted PVSCs and the tandem devices.

Supplying a medieval metropolis: water management and agriculture in the hinterland of early Islamic Basra
Authors: Brown Peter J. 
Published: November 2022

AbstractFollowing its foundation in the 630s CE, medieval Basra rapidly expanded to became one of the most populous cities of southern Iraq and the wider Gulf region. At its foundation, the city’s surrounding environment appears to have been poorly suited to sustaining a large urban population. This paper examines the different ways in which the early Islamic population of Basra transformed the immediate environs of the city to improve the urban water supply and the agricultural potential of the city’s hinterland. In particular, this included the construction of substantial canals connecting Basra with sources of water such as the marshes to the north of the city and the Shaṭṭ al-cArab—the river which forms at the confluence of the Tigris and Euphrates and flows past Basra to the Gulf. The tidal influence of the Gulf causes the water level of the Shaṭṭ al-cArab to rise and fall daily and, by exploiting this characteristic, the medieval population of Basra could irrigate large swathes of land surrounding the city. Analysis of historic satellite imagery reveals possible evidence for the infrastructure that made this possible—including the remains of field systems bounded by, and interspersed with, canals as well as large raised linear ridge features which occur in tandem with relict canal systems. This paper critically assesses the evidence for the dating of these features, potential scenarios for how they functioned and their relationship to the medieval city of Basra.
Organic agriculture, labour exchange, and social networks: a case study of smallholder farming in Bhutan
Authors: Tshotsho  , Lippert Christian , Feuerbacher Arndt 
Published: November 2022

Abstract

We examine the informal exchange of labour in farming villages with the successful adoption of labour-intensive farming practices. Previous studies have characterised the network pattern of labour exchange to relate such cooperative behaviour to the community’s social structure. We use network patterns from the literature and recreate the internal network structure of the labour exchange in selected Bhutanese villages to determine the type of social enforcement mechanisms used. Results show that labour exchange networks in these villages are characterised by a high prevalence of triad closure as an underlying social structure. These are completely connected structures within the labour exchange network in which any two farmers exchanging labour have a common farmer with whom both share labour. The results from our random graph modelling imply that villages with well-functioning labour exchange institutions may be most suitable for being promoted as “organic villages” as they can adapt to the high labour requirement that comes with organic farming. Future research should analyse how villages with different network structures produce different farm outcomes and how the village and farm-specific attributes affect their social enforcement mechanisms.
A systematic analysis of maximum tolerable tool wear in friction stir welding

Published: November 2022

AbstractFriction stir welding (FSW) is a solid-state joining process with a wide range of applications in the E-mobility, automotive, aerospace and energy industries. However, FSW is subjected to specific challenges including comparatively high process forces and high requirements on the clamping technique as well as tool wear resulting from the tool-workpiece interaction and thermo-mechanical stresses. Geometric-related tool wear can cause premature tool failure, process instabilities or weld seam irregularities. Therefore, tool wear in general, wear limits and tool life are essential factors for the efficient and sustainable implementation of friction stir welding. Against this background, this study analysed areas of significant tool wear on the shoulder and probe as a function of process temperature, weld seam length and weld seam quality. This provided functional correlations for determining limiting conditions on maximum tolerable tool wear. Geometrical deviations of the tool, induced by wear, were detected experimentally at different measuring points on the probe and shoulder and varying weld seam length. The investigations were carried out using a force-controlled robotized welding setup in which AA-6060-T66 sheets with a thickness of 5 mm were joined by weld seams up to 500 m in length. To identify the maximum tolerable tool wear, the weld seam properties were determined by visual and metallographic inspections and by tensile tests at 50-m intervals on the weld seam. It was shown that a 50% reduction in rotational speed (lower temperatures) resulted in less wear and thus in an increase of tool life of up to 150%. In addition, it was shown that the shoulder, like the probe, was also subject to significant wear. These results can be incorporated into FSW maintenance schedules to maximize tool life and minimize scrap rates.
Weiterbildung und Geringqualifizierung in der Digitalisierung – Ein Review zu Kontextfaktoren der Weiterbildungsbeteiligung Geringqualifizierter
Authors: Mohajerzad Hadjar , Fliegener Luca , Lacher Sophie 
Published: November 2022

ZusammenfassungGeringqualifizierte weisen im Vergleich zu anderen Qualifikationsgruppen die niedrigste Weiterbildungsbeteiligung auf. Vor dem Hintergrund der Digitalisierung und COVID-19-Pandemie wird Weiterbildung jedoch immer wichtiger für diese Zielgruppe. Mit Blick auf die betriebliche Weiterbildung wird eine soziale Selektivität von Geringqualifizierten deutlich. Mithilfe einer systematischen Literaturrecherche wurden Einflussfaktoren auf den Ebenen des Individuums, der Organisation, der Gesellschaft sowie der Politik auf die Weiterbildungsbeteiligung der Zielgruppe gesichtet. Insbesondere zeigt der Forschungsüberblick, dass häufiger quantitative Studien durchgeführt werden. Zugleich fehlt es noch an Studien, die institutionelle, organisationale und programmplanende Bedingungen untersuchen. Außerdem wurden während der COVID-19-Pandemie qualifikationsspezifische Unterschiede der Weiterbildungsbeteiligung deutlicher, woraus sich erste Indizien zur Weiterbildungsbeteiligung Geringqualifizierter unter Digitalisierungsbedingungen ableiten lassen.

Published: November 2022

AbstractJellies are usually preserved by artificial preservatives where they have harmful side effects and health hazards especially to infants. Honey and fresh lemon extract juice is a natural preservative and is considered a good substitute for artificial preservative. Due to increasing level of demand regarding health concern issue safe food, an attempt has undertaken to formulate the artificial preservative free guava–pineapple jelly and their marketability, physicochemical, bioactive compounds, microbial and antioxidant properties analysis during storage. In this study, the jelly was formulated using artificial preservative potassium metabisulphite (KMS) (T1), natural preservative honey and fresh lemon extract juice (T2 and T3), without artificial and natural preservative (T4) using different proportion of guava–pineapple extracted juice. Results of different treated jelly showed that T2 and T3 jelly was nutritionally superior. Bioactive compounds and antioxidant properties was highly present in T2 and T3 jelly. The brightest color (L* and C*) and highest hue angle (H*) value was noted in honey and fresh lemon extract juice treated jelly T2 and T3 upto 8 months of storage but after 9 months, darkest color was noted gradually. The consumer acceptance was extended to honey and lemon extract juice treated jelly (T2 and T3) for their impressive color and flavor. High incidence of microbial load was recorded in preservative free (both natural and artificial) jelly (T4). Low incidence of microbial load obtained from this study gives an indication that T2 and T3 jelly is microbiologically safe as natural jelly. Shelf life of natural preservative treated jelly (T2 and T3) could be extended upto 8 months and artificial preservative treated jelly could be upto 9 months (T1) at ambient condition without any quality deterioration. Overall, honey and fresh lemon extract juice are valuable source of natural preservative for formulation of fruit jelly. The processors could process and preserve the fruit jelly with decent aroma by applying this technology as an alternative to artificial food additives.
Variation and change in Swiss German agreement morphology: Spatial, social, and attitudinal effects
Authors: Steiner Carina , Jeszenszky Péter , Leemann Adrian 
Published: November 2022

AbstractThis paper investigates the occurrence of inflected predicative adjectives, an optional yet distinguishing feature of German dialects spoken in southern Switzerland. We provide an in-depth analysis of the patterns of change of this morphosyntactic marker with a particular focus on extralinguistic factors. Historical records from 1950 were compared to contemporary data collected from 192 speakers across 49 localities in 2020–21. Our results corroborate previous reports indicating a substantial, real-time decline in inflected forms. Logistic mixed-effects modeling suggests that the inflection of predicative adjectives occurs more frequently among speakers who report tight social networks, have a strong local dialect identity, and regularly use one or more Romance languages. These findings support the claim that tight social networks and local dialect identity construction may lead to the preservation of conservative grammatical forms. Additionally, the effect of Romance languages highlights the role of transfer phenomena induced by language contact.
Evidence of large sturgeons in the Paleocene of North America
Authors: Brownstein Chase Doran 
Published: November 2022

AbstractRay-finned fishes comprise nearly half of extant vertebrate species and include several ancient lineages with fossil records that stretch over 200 Myr in time. One of these old clades, the sturgeons and paddlefishes, is distributed across the Northern Hemisphere and includes some of the largest known freshwater fishes. Yet, the fossil record of this lineage (Acipenseriformes) is poor compared to similarly ancient ray-finned fish clades. Here, I describe sturgeon fossils from two geological units in North America < 10 Myr younger than the Cretaceous-Paleogene boundary. Both come from individuals of ~1.5 m in length. These Paleogene forms establish the long history of large body size in Acipenseriforms and reveal sturgeons were some of the largest inhabitants of freshwater ecosystems that were still recovering from the Cretaceous-Paleogene extinction.
Recovery of Laurentian cyclocystoids following Late Ordovician extinctions (Brassfield Formation, Llandovery; southwestern Ohio)
Authors: Ausich William I. , Zehler Nikki E. 
Published: November 2022

AbstractZygocycloides? foerstei n. sp. is described from the Llandovery (Aeronian) Brassfield Formation of southwestern Ohio. This is among the oldest reported Silurian cyclocystoids from North America and is the only North American Llandovery cyclocystoid that is preserved with a complete rim of marginal ossicles. Zygocycloides Smith and Paul, 1982 is most similar to Nicholsodiscus Glass et al., 2003 (Katian) and Perforocycloides Ewin et al., 2019 (Llandovery, Telychian), both from Anticosti Island, Québec. Cyclocystoids (Ordovician to Mississippian) survived Late Ordovician extinctions, and this discovery documents that this echinoderm clade was part of shallow-water, marine paleocommunities during the initial post-extinction transgression onto the Laurentian platform.UUID: http://zoobank.org/3d3e092e-267b-4841-9245-6275d1eb79a1
THE INFLECTION POINTS IN FORMATIVE MAYA HISTORY: THE VIEW FROM CHAMPOTÓN, CAMPECHE, MEXICO
Authors: Ek Jerald 
Published: November 2022

AbstractThis study evaluates the degree of correspondence between chronological frameworks implemented in Maya studies and current archaeological evidence, focusing on dynamics in the Preclassic period in the Champotón River drainage, Campeche, Mexico. The earliest ceramics documented in Champotón, dating to the early facet of the Middle Preclassic, were part of a regional tradition that shared decorative modes with contemporary complexes across Mesoamerica. The transition between the early and late facets of the Middle Preclassic was an era of abrupt change, with communities in Champotón participating in the first widespread autochthonous material culture horizon of the Maya Lowlands. The ensuing centuries would be characterized by conservatism and growth, with spatial continuity in settlement locations and homogeneity in material culture through the Late Preclassic. These historical dynamics are not unique to coastal Campeche, but were embedded within broader historical developments during the Middle Preclassic period in the Maya Lowlands. Instead of forcing new evidence into an incongruent chronological framework, this article proposes a revision to the traditional periodization used in the Maya Lowlands.
