description: Situational judgement tests (SJTs) are a recognised assessment method for admission into medical school, selection into postgraduate training programs, and postgraduate competency assessment. More recently, however, SJTs have been used during undergraduate medical training (UMT). This systematic review identifies, describes, and appraises the evidence for SJTs in UMT to determine educational associations and outcomes. MEDLINE, EMBASE, ERIC, PsycINFO, SCOPUS, Web of Science, and grey literature were searched for original research studies evaluating SJTs implemented within UMT to 1 November 2022. Studies reporting evaluation outcomes were included. Narrative data syntheses were undertaken. Risk of Bias was appraised using the Quality in Prognosis Studies tool. 24 studies were included. National database-derived SJTs (n = 14) assessed against professionalism, postgraduate attainment, construct of medical degree, medical school admissions scores, personality attributes, and declaration of disability. In-house derived SJTs (n = 10) assessed against professionalism, clinical skills, and personality attributes. Most evidence evaluated and reported inverse SJT associations with professionalism and were moderate risk of bias. SJTs may have utility for developing professional behaviours in medical students. However, further research testing SJT robustness, standard setting methodologies, and prospectively evaluating SJTs against objective outcome measures within the context of UMT is warranted.

description: The think aloud protocol (TAP) has two components, the think aloud interview, a technique for verbal data collection, and protocol analysis, a technique for predicting and analyzing verbal data. TAP is a useful method for those attempting to observe, explore, and understand individuals’ thoughts, which remain among the most difficult research areas in health professions education. Notably, the long, complex history and heterogeneous implementation of variations of TAP can make it difficult to understand and implement rigorously. In this Guide, we define the TAP and related concepts, describe the origins, outline applications, offer a detailed roadmap for rigorous implementation as a technique for data collection and/or data analysis, and suggest opportunities for adaptation of the traditional TAP. We aim to arm researchers with the tools to implement a rigorous think aloud interview, while explaining its origins to empower them to adapt the traditional TAP intentionally and justifiably to modern health professions education research.

sustainable floor coverings

description: The aim of this paper is to gain an understanding of the characteristics and requirements of the logistics pertaining to the reverse supply chain of circular sustainable floor coverings, as a crucial part of enabling circulation of the material, and to identify the regulations that affect the reverse logistics.
 The methodology includes a literature search and discussions with stakeholders in the floor coverings sector.
 The results show that there are special characteristics to consider pertaining to the logistics of the floor-coverings reverse supply chain, when increased circularity is aimed at, such as unpredictable supply, and that there are several regulations that affect logistics activities. This paper contributes to a better understanding of the logistics of reverse supply chains in the floor coverings sector, since the existing literature on this topic is scarce.

description: We apply a simple analytical method based on a unitary transformation to calculate the Bloch-Siegert (BS) shift over the entire driving-strength range. In quantitative comparison with the numerically exact BS shift obtained by Floquet formalism as well as the previous BS results, we confirm that our calculated results are not only accurate in the weak-driving regime but also correct in strong-driving limit. In the intermediate strong-driving regime, the calculated values of the BS shift are nearly the same as the exact ones. It turns out that our calculation for the BS shift is beyond perturbation. Meanwhile, we demonstrate the signatures caused by the BS shift by monitoring the excited-state population and the probe-pump spectrum under the experiment accessible conditions. In particular, we find that when the driving frequency is fixed at the transition frequency of the system, the lineshape of the probe-pump spectrum becomes asymmetric with the increase of the driving strength, which may be verified experimentally.

description: Under DAPHNE4NFDI, we have been working on to set up a XAS reference database including raw and processed data with an interface developed for uploading and evaluating the data. In this context, defining metadata fields about the performed XAS experiments and documenting this information along with data is essential to make the measured data reusable by any researcher in a similar field and beyond. Another important aspect of a curated database is that users should be able to easily judge the quality and the usability of each data set by looking at the mentioned quality criteria. In the present work, we have discussed and highlighted the im-portance of metadata fields and quality criteria for the data to be uploaded at the XAS data-base.

description: We report here on the determination of plasma physical parameters across a shock driven by a Coronal Mass Ejection using White Light (WL) coronagraphic images and Radio Dynamic Spectra (RDS). The event analyzed here is the spectacular eruption that occurred on June 7th 2011, a fast CME followed by the ejection of columns of chromospheric plasma, part of them falling back to the solar surface, associated with a M2.5 flare and a type-II radio burst. Images acquired by the SOHO/LASCO coronagraphs (C2 and C3) were employed to track the CME-driven shock in the corona between 2-12 R$_\odot$ in an angular interval of about 110$^\circ$. In these intervals we derived 2-Dimensional (2D) maps of electron density, shock velocity and shock compression ratio, and we measured the shock inclination angle with respect to the radial direction. Under plausible assumptions, these quantities were used to infer 2D maps of shock Mach number $M_\text{A}$ and strength of coronal magnetic fields at the shock's heights. We found that in the early phases (2-4 R$_\odot$) the whole shock surface is super-Alfvénic, while later on (i.e. higher up) it becomes super-Alfvenic only at the nose. This is in agreement with the location for the source of the observed type-II burst, as inferred from RDS combined with the shock kinematic and coronal densities derived from WL. For the first time, a coronal shock is used to derive a 2D map of the coronal magnetic field strength over a 10 R$_\odot$ altitude and $\sim 110^\circ$ latitude intervals.

Better Medicines for Children: The Effects of Best Pharmaceuticals for Children Act (BPCA) and Pediatric Research Equity Act (PREA) on Pediatric Drug Development, Labeling, and Use
Creators: name: Lee, Carrie, MD
Publisher: name: The University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill University Libraries
Year: 2008

description: In recent times, as much as 75% of pediatric prescription drug use has been off label, or used in the absence of FDA approval. Increasingly, this off label use came to be seen as problematic, since noble goals of protecting children as vulnerable research subjects had the unintended effect of making every child an inadvertent experiment. The Best Pharmaceuticals for Children Act and the Pediatric Research Equity Act were passed by Congress in 2002 and 2003 respectively and reauthorized in 2007 to solve this problem. But how successful have they been? We triangulate methods, reviewing literature, analyzing public documents, and content analyzing elite interviews, to evaluate legislative success. We conclude that the Acts are achieving their intended purposes, but we make recommendations to strengthen their success.

The paper focuses on this proposal, and analyzes the complexity of both coherence testing and cautious reasoning under the new semantics. Some surprising results highlight similarities and differences versus mainstream stable model semantics for aggregates. Moreover, the paper reports on the design of compilation techniques for implementing the new semantics on top of existing ASP solvers, which eventually lead to realize a prototype system that allows for experimenting with Gelfond-Zhang's aggregates.

description: Remote consulting has become part of the medical student clinical experience in primary care, but little research exists regarding the impact on learning. To describe the experiences of General Practitioner (GP) educators and medical students in using student-led remote consultations as an educational tool. A qualitative, explorative study conducted at four UK medical schools. GP educators and medical students were purposively sampled and interviewed. Nine themes arose: practical application, autonomy, heuristics, safety, triage of undifferentiated patients, clinical reasoning, patient inclusion in student education, student–patient interaction, and student–doctor interaction. Remote consulting has become part of the clinical placement experience. This has been found to expose students to a wider variety of clinical presentations. Verbal communication, history-taking, triage, and clinical reasoning skills were practised through remote consulting, but examination skills development was lacking. Students found building rapport more challenging, although this was mitigated by having more time with patients. Greater clinical risk was perceived in remote consulting, which had potential to negatively impact students’ psychological safety. Frequent debriefs could ameliorate this risk and positively impact student–doctor relationships. Student autonomy and independence increased due to greater participation and responsibility. Pre-selection of patients could be helpful but had potential to expose students to lower complexity patients. Practice pointsRemote consulting confers unique educational benefits.Remote consulting can help develop history-taking and communication skills, as well as clinical reasoning skills.The psychological safety of the student and the supervisory risk of the tutor can be impacted by remote consulting, but frequent debriefs between the student and tutor can help mitigate this risk.Learning how to conduct remote, and face-to-face consultations is important in medical education.

description: The transition towards Competency-Based Medical Education at the Cumming School of Medicine was accelerated by the reduced clinical time caused by the COVID-19 pandemic. The purpose of this study was to define a standard protocol for setting Entrustable Professional Activity (EPA) achievement thresholds and examine their feasibility within the clinical clerkship. Achievement thresholds for each of the 12 AFMC EPAs for graduating Canadian medical students were set by using sequential rounds of revision by three consecutive groups of stakeholders and evaluation experts. Structured communication was guided by a modified Delphi technique. The feasibility/consequence models of these EPAs were then assessed by tracking their completion by the graduating class of 2021. The threshold-setting process resulted in set EPA achievement levels ranging from 1 to 8 across the 12 AFMC EPAs. Estimates were stable after the first round for 9 of 12 EPAs. 96.27% of EPAs were successfully completed by clerkship students despite the shortened clinical period. Feasibility was predicted by the slowing rate of EPA accumulation overtime during the clerkship. The process described led to consensus on EPA achievement thresholds. Successful completion of the assigned thresholds was feasible within the shortened clerkship. Practice pointsThe modified Delphi technique is a feasible methodology that can be used to propose achievement thresholds for all 12 EPAs for graduating undergraduate medical students.Recommended achievement thresholds for each EPA ranged from 1 (e.g. ‘Participate in health quality improvement initiatives’) to 8 (e.g. ‘Obtain a history and perform a physical examination adapted to the patient’s clinical situation’).

description: The laws of thermodynamics put limits to the efficiencies of thermal machines. Analogues of these laws are now established for quantum engines weakly and passively coupled to the environment providing a framework to find improvements to their performance. Systems whose interaction with the environment is actively controlled do not fall in that framework. Here we consider systems actively and locally coupled to the environment, evolving with a so-called boundary-driven Lindblad equation. Starting from a unitary description of the system plus the environment we simultaneously obtain the Lindblad equation and the appropriate expressions for heat, work and entropy-production of the system extending the framework for the analysis of new, and some already proposed, quantum heat engines. We illustrate our findings in spin 1/2 chains and explain why an XX chain coupled in this way to a single heat bath relaxes to thermodynamic-equilibrium while and XY chain does not. Additionally, we show that an XX chain coupled to a left and a right heat baths behaves as a quantum engine, a heater or refrigerator depending on the parameters, with efficiencies bounded by Carnot efficiencies.

description: Aggregation functions are widely used in answer set programming for representing and reasoning on knowledge involving sets of objects collectively. Current implementations simplify the structure of programs in order to optimize the overall performance. In particular, aggregates are rewritten into simpler forms known as monotone aggregates. Since the evaluation of normal programs with monotone aggregates is in general on a lower complexity level than the evaluation of normal programs with arbitrary aggregates, any faithful translation function must introduce disjunction in rule heads in some cases. However, no function of this kind is known. The paper closes this gap by introducing a polynomial, faithful, and modular translation for rewriting common aggregation functions into the simpler form accepted by current solvers. A prototype system allows for experimenting with arbitrary recursive aggregates, which are also supported in the recent version 4.5 of the grounder \textsc{gringo}, using the methods presented in this paper.

description: To expand understanding of patient-clinician interactions in management reasoning. We reviewed 10 videos of simulated patient-clinician encounters to identify instances of problematic and successful communication, then reviewed the videos again through the lens of two models of shared decision-making (SDM): an ‘involvement-focused’ model and a ‘problem-focused’ model. Using constant comparative qualitative analysis we explored the connections between these patient-clinician interactions and management reasoning. Problems in patient-clinician interactions included failures to: encourage patient autonomy; invite the patient’s involvement in decision-making; convey the health impact of the problem; explore and address concerns and questions; explore the context of decision-making (including patient preferences); meet the patient where they are; integrate situational preferences and priorities; offer >1 viable option; work with the patient to solve a problem of mutual concern; explicitly agree to a final care plan; and build the patient-clinician relationship. Clinicians’ ‘management scripts‘ varied along a continuum of prioritizing clinician vs patient needs. Patients also have their own cognitive scripts that guide their interactions with clinicians. The involvement-focused and problem-focused SDM models illuminated distinct, complementary issues. Management reasoning is a deliberative interaction occurring in the space between individuals. Juxtaposing management reasoning alongside SDM generated numerous insights.

description: We have studied the magnetic layer thickness dependence of the orbital magnetic moment in magnetic heterostructures to identify contributions from interfaces. Three different heterostructures, Ta/CoFeB/MgO, Pt/Co/AlO$_x$ and Pt/Co/Pt, which possess significant interface contribution to the perpendicular magnetic anisotropy, are studied as model systems. X-ray magnetic circular dichroism spectroscopy is used to evaluate the relative orbital moment, i.e. the ratio of the orbital to spin moments, of the magnetic elements constituting the heterostructures. We find that the relative orbital moment of Co in Pt/Co/Pt remains constant against its thickness whereas the moment increases with decreasing Co layer thickness for Pt/Co/AlO$_x$, suggesting that a non-zero interface orbital moment exists for the latter system. For Ta/CoFeB/MgO, a non-zero interface orbital moment is found only for Fe. X-ray absorption spectra shows that a particular oxidized Co state in Pt/Co/AlO$_x$, absent in other heterosturctures, may give rise to the interface orbital moment in this system. These results show element specific contributions to the interface orbital magnetic moments in ultrathin magnetic heterostructures.

description: Considering a sample of 31 exoplanetary systems detected by gravitational microlensing, we investigate whether or not the estimated distances to these systems conform to the Galactic distribution of planets expected from models. We derive the expected distribution of distances and relative proper motions from a simulated microlensing survey, correcting for the dominant selection effects that affect the planet detection sensitivity as a function of distance, and compare it to the observed distribution using Anderson-Darling (AD) hypothesis testing. Taking the relative abundance of planets in the bulge to that in the disk, $f_{\rm bulge}$, as a model parameter, we find that our model is only consistent with the observed distribution for $f_{\rm bulge}<0.54$ (for a $p$-value threshold of 0.01) implying that the bulge may be devoid of planets relative to the disk. Allowing for a dependence of planet abundance on metallicity and host mass, or an additional dependence of planet sensitivity on event timescale does not restore consistency for $f_{\rm bulge}=1$. We examine the distance estimates of some events in detail, and conclude that some parallax-based distance estimates could be significantly in error. Only by combining the removal of one problematic event from our sample and the inclusion of strong dependences of planet abundance or detection sensitivity on host mass, metallicity and event timescale are we able to find consistency with the hypothesis that the bulge and disk have equal planet abundance.

description: T-prolymphocytic leukemia (T-PLL) is a rare and mature T-cell malignancy with characteristic chemotherapy-refractory behavior and a poor prognosis. Molecular concepts of disease development have been restricted to protein-coding genes. Recent global microRNA (miR) expression profiles revealed miR-141-3p and miR-200c-3p (miR-141/200c) as two of the highest differentially expressed miRs in T-PLL cells versus healthy donor-derived T cells. Furthermore, miR-141/200c expression separates T-PLL cases into two subgroups with high and low expression, respectively. Evaluating the potential pro-oncogenic function of miR-141/200c deregulation, we discovered accelerated proliferation and reduced stress-induced cell death induction upon stable miR-141/200c overexpression in mature T-cell leukemia/lymphoma lines. We further characterized a miR-141/200c-specific transcriptome involving the altered expression of genes associated with enhanced cell cycle transition, impaired DNA damage responses, and augmented survival signaling pathways. Among those genes, we identified STAT4 as a potential miR-141/200c target. Low STAT4 expression (in the absence of miR-141/200c upregulation) was associated with an immature phenotype of primary T-PLL cells as well as with a shortened overall survival of T-PLL patients. Overall, we demonstrate an aberrant miR-141/200c-STAT4 axis, showing for the first time the potential pathogenetic implications of a miR cluster, as well as of STAT4, in the leukemogenesis of this orphan disease.

description: We present a unified picture for the Schwinger effect and the Hawking radiation and address the gauge-gravity relation and the dS-AdS duality issue at the one-loop level. We propose a thermal interpretation for the Schwinger effect in an (A)dS space and in an Reissner-Nordström black hole. The emission of charged particles from the near-extremal charged black hole is proportional to the Schwinger effect in an AdS and to another Schwinger effect in a Rindler space accelerated by the surface gravity.

description: Hydrodynamic cavitation (HC) has been extensively investigated for effluent treatment applications. Performance of HC devices or processes is often reported in terms of degradation of organic pollutants rather than quantification of hydroxyl (OH) radicals. In this study, generation of OH radicals in vortex based cavitation device using coumarin dosimetry was quantified. Coumarin was used as the chemical probe with an initial concentration of 100 µM (15 ppm). Generation of OH radicals was quantified by analysing generated single hydroxylated products. The influence of operating parameters such as pH and type of acid used to adjust pH, dissolved oxygen, and inlet and outlet pressures was investigated. Acidic pH was found to be more conducive for generating OH radicals and therefore subsequent experiments were performed at pH of 3. Sulphuric acid was found to be more than three times effective than hydrochloric acid in generating OH radicals. Effect of initial levels of dissolved oxygen was found to influence OH radical generation. Performance of vortex based cavitation device was then compared with other commonly used cavitation devices based on orifice and venturi. The vortex based cavitation device was found to outperform the orifice and venturi based devices in terms of initial per-pass factor. Influence of device scale (nominal flow rate through the device) on performance was then evaluated. The results presented for these devices unambiguously quantifies their cavitational performance. The presented results will be useful for evaluating computational models and stimulate further development of predictive computational models in this challenging area.

description: We experimentally demonstrate the photonic realization of a dispersionless flat-band in a quasi-one-dimensional photonic lattice fabricated by ultrafast laser inscription. In the nearest neighbor tight binding approximation, the lattice supports two dispersive and a non-dispersive (flat) band. We experimentally excite superpositions of flat-band eigen modes at the input of the photonic lattice and show the diffractionless propagation of the input states due to their infinite effective mass. In the future, the use of photonic rhombic lattices, together with the successful implementation of a synthetic gauge field, will enable the observation of Aharonov-Bohm photonic caging.

description: We study the energy representation of conformal quantum mechanics as the Whittaker vector without specifying classical Lagrangian. We show that a generating function of expectation values among two excited states of the dilatation operator in conformal quantum mechanics is a solution to the Wheeler-DeWitt equation and it corresponds to the AdS2 partition function evaluated as the minisuperspace wave function in Liouville field theory. We also show that the dilatation expectation values in conformal quantum mechanics lead to the asymptotic smoothed counting function of the Riemann zeros.

description: The inflated beta regression model aims to enable the modeling of responses in the intervals $(0,1]$, $[0,1)$ or $[0,1]$. In this model, hypothesis testing is often performed based on the likelihood ratio statistic. The critical values are obtained from asymptotic approximations, which may lead to distortions of size in small samples. In this sense, this paper proposes the bootstrap Bartlett correction to the statistic of likelihood ratio in the inflated beta regression model. The proposed adjustment only requires a simple Monte Carlo simulation. Through extensive Monte Carlo simulations the finite sample performance (size and power) of the proposed corrected test is compared to the usual likelihood ratio test and the Skovgaard adjustment already proposed in the literature. The numerical results evidence that inference based on the proposed correction is much more reliable than that based on the usual likelihood ratio statistics and the Skovgaard adjustment. At the end of the work, an application to real data is also presented.

description: We report turbulence effects on magnetic reconnection in relativistic plasmas using 3-dimensional relativistic resistive magnetohydrodynamics simulations. We found reconnection rate became independent of the plasma resistivity due to turbulence effects similarly to non-relativistic cases. We also found compressible turbulence effects modified the turbulent reconnection rate predicted in non-relativistic incompressible plasmas; The reconnection rate saturates and even decays as the injected velocity approaches to the Alfvén velocity. Our results indicate the compressibility cannot be neglected when compressible component becomes about half of incompressible mode occurring when the Alfvén Mach number reaches about $0.3$. The obtained maximum reconnection rate is around $0.05$ to $0.1$, which will be able to reach around $0.1$ to $0.2$ if injection scales are comparable to the sheet length.
