Passing as resistance through a Goffmanian approach: Normalized, defensive, strategic, and instrumental passing when LGBTQ+ individuals encounter institutions
Authors: Ozbilgin Mustafa F. , Erbil Cihat , Baykut Sibel , Kamasak Rifat 
Published: November 2022

AbstractPassing and coming out are two divergent individual strategies historically associated with the LGBTQ+ community as they struggle to fit in with normative expectations at work and in life. While coming out has gradually become more common in organizations and national contexts that offer safeguards for LGBTQ+ individuals, passing remains an option where no such measures are available. Drawing on interviews with working‐class LGBTQ+ individuals in a country with an adversarial context, that is, Turkey, we identify how varieties of passing, defined as acting and appearing to fit with the dominant sexual orientation and gender identity norms, are used as strategies of coping with institutional norms. Working‐class LGBTQ+ individuals are an important group to study as many draw their pride, power, and identity from their engagement with work and the labor market. Transcending the monolithic accounts of passing, we illustrate four variants of passing (i.e., normalized, defensive, strategic, and instrumental passing) that LGBTQ+ individuals deploy at work. Reflecting on the field study findings, we explicate how and why LGBTQ+ individuals choose to pass at work in each case.

AbstractIntroductionGene therapy clinical trials measure steady‐state clotting factor expression levels (FELs) to evaluate the modulation of the bleeding phenotype, aiming to offer consistent protection against breakthrough bleeding events. The link between FELs and bleeding risk in people with haemophilia B (PwHB) is not well understood.AimWe evaluated the association between FEL and ABR in PwHB.MethodsThis cross‐sectional study extended the CHESS burden of illness studies in Europe and the United States. Recruitment of additional adult males with haemophilia B supplemented the existing CHESS sample size of PwHB and FELs. PwHB receiving prophylaxis were excluded, as fluctuating FELs may have confounded the analysis. Demographic and clinical characteristics were reported descriptively. Any recorded baseline FEL was reported by the haemophilia‐treating physicians according to the medical records. Generalised linear models with log link explored the association between changes in FEL and ABR.ResultsThe study included 407 PwHB and no inhibitors receiving on‐demand treatment. Mean age was 36.7 years; 56% from the EU, 44% from the United States. Mean baseline FEL was 9.95 IU/dl (SD, 10.47); mean ABR was 2.4 bleeds/year (SD, 2.64). After adjusting for covariates, the model showed that for every 1% increase in FEL the average ABR decreased by .08 (p < .001). Predicted number of bleeding events according to FEL showed a significant non‐linear relationship between FEL and ABR (p < .05).ConclusionThis analysis showed a significant relationship between FEL and ABR, where increases in FEL were associated with decreases in ABR among men with HB in Europe and the US.

AbstractObjectiveTo establish a new rat model of craniofacial myalgia, and to clarify which central nervous system pathways are activated in the model.BackgroundCraniofacial myalgia, represented by myogenous temporomandibular disorder and tension‐type headache with pericranial tenderness, is more common in female patients. The pain is thought to be a type of multifactorial disorder with several coexisting causes. To our knowledge, there are no models of craniofacial muscle hyperalgesia caused by multiple types of stimuli.MethodsWe injected nerve growth factor into the trapezius muscle of female and male rats and repeatedly stimulated the masseter muscle (MM) electrically for 10 days. We determined the mechanical head‐withdrawal threshold of MM and extent of phosphorylated extracellular signal‐related kinase 1/2 (pERK) immunoreactivity in various regions of the lower brainstem. We conducted retrograde tract‐tracing to determine the projection of mechanosensitive MM‐innervating secondary neurons to the lateral parabrachial nucleus. Finally, we administered morphine in rats to determine whether increases of pERK immunoreactivity were dependent on noxious inputs.ResultsIn female rats, but not male rats, the mechanical head‐withdrawal threshold was decreased significantly from days 9 to 12. The number of pERK‐immunoreactive neurons in the brainstem was increased significantly in female rats in the group with both stimuli compared to rats in other groups with a single stimulus. Mechanosensitive MM‐innervating neurons in the brainstem projected to the parabrachial nucleus. Morphine administration blocked the increase in the number of pERK‐immunoreactive neurons in both the brainstem and parabrachial nucleus.ConclusionsWe established a model of craniofacial myalgia by combining trapezius and MM stimuli in female rats. We found mechanical hyperalgesia of the MM and activation of the pain pathway from the brainstem to parabrachial nucleus. The model reflects the characteristics of patients with craniofacial myalgia and might be helpful to clarify the pathogenic mechanisms underlying these disorders.

Published: November 2022

AbstractBackgroundWomen's experiences of pregnancy, birth and motherhood extend beyond healthcare provision and the immediate postpartum. Women's social, cultural and political environments shape the positive or negative effects of their experiences through this transition. However, there is limited research concerning the factors that women identify as being protective or promotive of maternal well‐being in the perinatal period and motherhood transition.ObjectiveTo explore women's views on the factors within healthcare, social, cultural, organizational, environmental and political domains that do or can work well in creating positive perinatal experiences.Design, Setting and ParticipantsA qualitative descriptive study with embedded public and participant involvement (PPI). Participants were 24 women who were maternity care service users giving birth in Ireland.ResultsThree themes were developed. The first theme, ‘tone of care’, related to women's interactions with and attitudes of healthcare professionals in setting the tone for the care they experienced. The second theme, ‘postpartum presence and support’, concerned the professional postpartum supports and services that women found beneficial in the motherhood transition. The final theme, ‘flexibility for new families’ addresses social and organizational issues around parents returning to paid employment.Discussion and ConclusionWomen suggested multiple avenues for promoting positive perinatal experiences for women giving birth in Ireland, which may be implemented at healthcare and policy levels. Women identified that maternal health education focuses on supporting informed decision‐making processes as a positive and worry‐alleviating resource. Additionally, women valued being met by healthcare professionals who regard women as the decision makers in their care experience. Exchanges in which healthcare professionals validate and encourage women in their mothering role and actively involve their partners as caregivers left lasting positive impressions. Extended and professional postpartum support was a common issue, and phone lines or drop‐in clinics were suggested as invaluable and affirming assets where women could access personalized support with healthcare professionals who had the knowledge and skills to genuinely approach women's concerns. Social and organizational considerations involved supporting parents to balance their responsibilities as new or growing families in the return to work.Public or Patient ContributionMaternity care service users were involved in the interviews and manuscript preparation.
Preferential corporate income tax treatment: Valuation in the market portfolio
Authors: Yoo Junwook 
Published: November 2022

AbstractIn the setting of the market portfolio, the impacts of preferential corporate income tax treatments through the valuational reduction for risk are opposite to and offset the impacts through the expected proceeds. This suggests that focusing on the absolute valuation of tax‐favored firms results in the undermeasurement of implicit taxes on returns on investments in tax‐favored firms and the relative valuation with reference to fully taxed (i.e., tax‐disfavored) benchmark firms be used. In addition, corporate income taxes imposed on entities and capital income taxes imposed on investors have opposite valuational effects through the endogenously derived market‐aggregate aversion to risk.
“Love for variety,” outside option and extensive margin of demand
Authors: Mukherjee Sovik , Mukherjee Vivekananda 
Published: November 2022

AbstractThe paper models a uniform‐price Bertrand‐price‐competition in a differentiated product oligopoly market, where the buyers' preference shows “love for variety.” The buyers differ from each other in their valuation of the differentiated product with a common outside option available to all. The model endogenously determines both the extensive and intensive margin of demand and the equilibrium number of varieties in the differentiated product market. It shows that in such a framework complementarity exists at the extensive margin of demand even in the presence of demand substitutability between the varieties. The results apply to the competition between brick and mortar shops and malls.

Published: November 2022

AbstractThis study examined the quality and fluctuation of daily moods as well as health routines and means of recovery from work strain among employees (n = 38) working nonstandard, often unpredictable schedules in the retail and services sector in Finland. Data were collected via a background questionnaire and a one‐week mobile diary. The results indicated that the daily moods of employees were relatively positive but varied greatly from day to day. Hectic working days, unpredictable changes in work schedules, and compounded responsibilities at home and work were reported as causes of daily strain stemming from work. In contrast, more sleep and exercise were positively associated with daily mood and, therefore, are likely to enhance recovery from work related strain. Additional activities employees reported as useful in recovering from work strain included low‐effort leisure activities along with social activities with family and friends, as well as mastery experiences stemming from successful work experiences.

AbstractBladder dysfunction is physically and mentally stressful. Long‐term catheterization is indicated as conservative therapy for chronic urinary retention as well as urinary incontinence; although an indwelling, transurethral catheter still represents a risk factor for ascending urinary tract infection and urosepsis. The primary outcome of this study was the impact of the DFree ultrasonic sensor on the subjectively perceived quality of life and satisfaction of patients. The secondary outcomes evaluated were usefulness, ease of use (user‐friendliness), quality of care, and self‐reported degree of autonomy. In this pilot study, 18 urological patients with various kind of bladder dysfunction were treated with an ultrasonic sensor for at least 12 h a day over a 3‐month period. Assessment was conducted using the Kings Health Questionnaire (KHQ) and the German version of the Client Satisfaction Questionnaire (ZUF‐8) (quantitative data) and guided interviews (qualitative data). Eighteen participants were included in this study. Participants highly appreciated the ideas and concepts of the device. A change in KHQ after treatment could not be statistically confirmed; however, the average value in ZUF‐8 showed satisfaction with Dfree. However, no significant improvement was observed in the quantitative data. During the interviews at the end of the testing phase, the participants provided positive feedback with specific suggestions to improve device usability. The application was described as helpful and easy to use. Data triangulation illustrates that an improvement in technical implementation could increase device usefulness. This would imply higher patient satisfaction when using the device for bladder dysfunction.

AbstractAimsTo evaluate the effectiveness of virtual reality (VR) intervention in the management of pain, anxiety and fear in paediatric patients undergoing needle‐related procedures.DesignA systematic review and meta‐analysis of randomized controlled trials (RCTs).Data sourcesA librarian‐designed search of the Cochrane Library, PubMed, Web of Science, EMBASE, CINAHL, CBM, CNKI, and Wanfang databases was conducted to identify research articles in English or Chinese on RCTs up to February 28, 2022.Review methodsTwo researchers independently screened eligible articles. The Cochrane Handbook for Systematic Reviews was used to assess the risk of bias in the included studies. A fixed‐ or random‐effects meta‐analysis model was used to determine the pooled mean difference based on the results of the heterogeneity test.ResultsA total of 2269 articles were initially screened. The meta‐analysis included data from 27 studies representing 2224 participants. Compared with the non‐VR group, the VR intervention group significantly reduced pain, anxiety, and fear in paediatric patients who underwent puncture‐related procedures. Subgroup analysis showed that VR has advantages over conventional and other distraction methods.ConclusionPaediatric patients undergoing needle‐related procedures would benefit from VR interventions for pain, anxiety and fear management.ImpactVR intervention has the potential to reduce pain, anxiety and fear in paediatric patients undergoing puncture‐related procedures. Future clinical interventions could incorporate VR into puncture procedures as an effective method to reduce negative emotions in children eligible for VR distractions.Patient or Public ContributionOur paper is a systematic review and meta‐analysis and such details don't apply to our work.

Published: November 2022

AbstractAimsSynthesize qualitative research to illuminate the post‐migration psychosocial experiences amongst LGBTQ+ forced migrants.DesignMeta‐synthesis of qualitative reports.Data sourcesSystematic searches in seven databases and manual screenings were performed in July 2021 (21,049 entries screened in total). The final sample included 29 English‐language reports containing empirical qualitative findings about post‐migration experiences and published 10 years prior to the searches, based on migrants as the primary source.Review MethodsMethodological quality was appraised using the CASP and JBI checklists. Through a collaborative process involving nurse‐midwife researchers and experienced clinical professionals, reports were analysed with a two‐stage qualitative meta‐synthesis including an inductive qualitative content analysis.ResultsThe methodological quality was high and the reports included 636 participants in total. Two themes were identified through the meta‐synthesis. The first theme illustrates the psychological distress and numerous challenges and stressors forced migrants face after arrival, including challenges encountered as an LGBTQ+ forced migrant, psychological reactions and manifestations, and practical issues related to resettlement and living conditions. The second theme highlights the resilience and strength they find through various internal processes and external resources, including resilience and strengthening resources, identity formation and establishing and maintaining social relationships.ConclusionAfter arrival in the host country, forced migrants identifying as LGBTQ+ face numerous societal and personal challenges whilst being at risk of experiencing significant psychological distress. These migrants utilize a wide range of resources that may strengthen their resilience. Peer support stands out as a highly appreciated and promising resource that needs further attention in experimental research.ImpactForced migrants identifying as LGBTQ+ need access to adequate and sufficient support. The findings emphasize several strength‐building resources that may inform nurses, midwives, researchers and other professionals when providing psychosocial support for these persons.Patient or Public ContributionNo patient or public contribution.

AbstractIntroductionAim of this study was to evaluate the incidence of ablation‐induced endoscopically detected esophageal lesions (EDEL) and gastroparesis in patients undergoing high‐power short‐duration (HPSD) atrial fibrillation (AF) ablation using different target ablation index (AI) values.Methods and ResultsConsecutive patients undergoing AF ablation were included. Radiofrequency (RF) ablation was performed using HPSD ablation (50 W, target AI of 320 and 350 (group 1) and 380 (group 2) at posterior wall). Postablation endoscopy was performed in all patients. In total, 233 patients (66.8 ± 10 years; 52% male) were included consecutively (n = 137 patients in group 1 and n = 96 patients in group 2). Mean AI values und RF time at posterior wall was significantly higher and longer in group 2 compared to group 1 patients (413 ± 9 vs. 392 ± 19 AI, p < 0.01; 9.0 ± 0.8 s vs. 7.8 ± 0.7 s, p < 0.01). Esophageal endoscopy revealed esophageal lesions or gastroparesis in 43 of 233 patients (18.5%) in the total cohort (13.1% in group 1 and 26.0% in group 2; p = 0.02). Incidence of EDEL was 8.0% and 13.5% in group 1 and group 2, respectively. According to logistic analysis incidence of EDEL and/or gastroparesis was significantly lower in patients with a higher body mass index and higher in group 2 patients compared to group 1 patients.ConclusionThe incidence of EDEL or gastroparesis in patients undergoing HPSD AF ablation was 18.5% in the total cohort. The risk of EDEL and gastroparesis was associated with a higher AI target value of 380 compared to 320 and 350 at posterior wall and was reversely associated with body mass index.

AbstractContemporary systems for the diagnosis and management gastrointestinal symptoms not attributable to organic diseases (Functional GI Disorders, FGID, now renamed Disorders of Gut‐Brain Interaction, DGBI) seek to categorize patients into narrowly defined symptom‐based sub‐classes to enable targeted treatment of patient cohorts with similar underlying putative pathophysiology. However, an overlap of symptom categories frequently occurs and has a negative impact on treatment outcomes. There is a lack of guidance on their management. An Asian Pacific Association of Gastroenterology (APAGE) working group was set up to develop clinical practice guidelines for management of patients with functional dyspepsia (FD) who have an overlap with another functional gastrointestinal disorder: FD with gastroesophageal reflux (FD‐GERD), epigastric pain syndrome with irritable bowel syndrome (EPS‐IBS), postprandial distress syndrome with IBS (PDS‐IBS), and FD‐Constipation. We identified putative pathophysiology to provide a basis for treatment recommendations. A management algorithm is presented to guide primary and secondary care clinicians.

AbstractBackgroundsNonalcoholic fatty liver disease (NAFLD) is linked to obesity and metabolic syndrome conditions. However, a subset of NAFLD patients express a normal or low body mass index (lean NAFLD [L‐NAFLD]). Our aim is to compare the prevalence of L‐NAFLD to the obesity‐associated NAFLD in the United States by assessing prevalence, potential risk factors, liver‐related complications, and coronary artery disease outcomes.MethodologyA multicenter database (Explorys Inc.) of >70 million patients across the United States was screened. A cohort of patients with “nonalcoholic fatty liver” between 1999 and 2021 was identified. Two sub‐cohorts of NAFLD patients were identified: those with a body mass index (BMI) < 25 kg/m2 (L‐NAFLD) and those with a BMI > 30 kg/m2 (obesity‐associated NAFLD). We excluded patients with age <18 and those who have viral hepatitis, hemochromatosis, Wilson's disease, biliary cirrhosis, alcoholic liver disease, cystic fibrosis, alpha‐1‐antitrypsin deficiency, and autoimmune hepatitis. Multivariate analysis was performed to adjust for confounders.Results68 892 260 individuals were screened. NAFLD prevalence was four per 100 000, and L‐NAFLD prevalence was 0.6 per 100 000. Compared with those without, patients with L‐NAFLD tended to be older (OR 2.16), females (OR 1.28), and smokers (OR 4.67) and of Asian race (OR 2.12). L‐NAFLD patients were more likely to have acute coronary syndromes (OR 30.00) and metabolic syndrome (OR 2.31) despite the normal/low BMI. Esophageal varices and hepatocellular carcinoma risks were high in both cirrhosis patients.ConclusionThis is the largest study to assess L‐NAFLD prevalence in the United States. L‐NAFLD are at a significantly higher risk for acute coronary syndromes, esophageal varices, and hepatocellular carcinoma.
