INTRODUCTION: Food insecurity is associated with the development of substance misuse and use disorders (SUD). This study sought to estimate associations between state Supplemental Nutrition Assistance Program (SNAP) eligibility policies and substance-related outcomes. METHODS: 2014-2017 SNAP Policy Database and 2015-2019 National Survey on Drug Use and Health state-level estimates were used to estimate associations between state SNAP eligibility policies and alcohol use disorder (AUD), opioid misuse, illicit drug use disorder (IDUD), SUD, and needing but not receiving SUD treatment. State SNAP policies included those that (1) do not disqualify individuals with a felony drug conviction from SNAP and/or (2) expand SNAP eligibility by increasing the income limit or removing the asset test. Analyses were conducted January-May 2023. RESULTS: States that adopted both SNAP eligibility policies had reduced rates of AUD (adjusted rate ratio (aRR): 0.92; 95% CI 0.86, 0.99), opioid misuse (aRR: 0.94; 95% CI 0.89, 0.98), IDUD (aRR: 0.91; 95% CI 0.85, 0.98), SUD (aRR: 0.91; 95% CI 0.85, 0.97), and needing but not receiving SUD treatment (aRR: 0.92; 95% CI 0.87, 0.98) compared to states with neither policy. Among states that did not adopt increases to the income limit or removal of the asset test, those that removed the felony drug disqualification had lower rates of IDUD, SUD, and needing but not receiving SUD treatment, compared to those that maintained a disqualification. CONCLUSIONS: Expanded SNAP eligibility could help reduce rates of substance misuse and SUD. Opting out of the federal disqualification on SNAP participation for those with felony drug convictions may be particularly beneficial.

INTRODUCTION: Community Resource Referral Systems delivered electronically through healthcare information technology systems (e.g., electronic medical records) have become more common in efforts to address patients' unmet health-related social needs. Community Resource Referral System connects patients with social supports such as food assistance, utility support, transportation, and housing. This systematic review identifies barriers and facilitators that influence the Community Resource Referral System's implementation in the U.S. by identifying and synthesizing peer-reviewed literature over a 15-year period. METHODS: This systematic review was conducted following PRISMA guidelines. A search was conducted on five scientific databases to capture the literature published between January 2005 and December 2020. Data analysis was conducted from August 2021 to July 2022. RESULTS: This review includes 41 articles of the 2,473 initial search results. Included literature revealed that Community Resource Referral Systems functioned to address a variety of health-related social needs and were delivered in different ways. Integrating the Community Resource Referral Systems into clinic workflows, maintenance of community-based organization inventories, and strong partnerships between clinics and community-based organizations facilitated implementation. The sensitivity of health-related social needs, technical challenges, and associated costs presented as barriers. Overall, electronic medical records-integration and automation of the referral process was reported as advantageous for the stakeholders. DISCUSSION: This review provides information and guidance for healthcare administrators, clinicians, and researchers designing or implementing electronic Community Resource Referral Systems in the U.S. Future studies would benefit from stronger implementation science methodological approaches. Sustainable funding mechanisms for community-based organizations, clear stipulations regarding how healthcare funds can be spent on health-related social needs, and innovative governance structures that facilitate collaboration between clinics and community-based organizations are needed to promote the growth and sustainability of Community Resource Referral Systems in the U.S.

INTRODUCTION: To achieve more equitable health, health care must be grounded in an understanding of social determinants of health. Clinicians need hands-on, equity-centered training in interdisciplinary settings where they can further develop leadership skills and apply learnings in real-time. The Clinical Scholars program trained five cohorts of health care professionals in 25 leadership development competencies to contribute toward advancing health equity within the organizations and communities where they work. This study describes the self-reported ratings of three dimensions of competencies within four domains. METHODS: Data from 169 Fellows were collected at three time-points during the three-year training program using Qualtrics and Research Electronic Data Captrue software. Analysis was conducted in R and included descriptive statistics, fitting a linear mixed-effects model using random intercepts, and paired-sample t tests to assess significance between baseline and endpoint ratings. RESULTS: We found improved ratings over time for each of the three competency dimensions (knowledge, self-efficacy, use) and significant differences in ratings from baseline to endpoint, by domain (personal, interpersonal, organizational, community, and systems). DISCUSSION: These findings support the effectiveness of an equity-centered leadership development curriculum in training health care professionals to address health challenges in their communities and organizations, thereby furthering the broader goal of achieving more equitable health for all.

OBJECTIVE: To examine if income inequality, social cohesion, and neighborhood walkability are associated with physical activity among rural adults. DATA SOURCE: Cross-sectional data came from a telephone survey (August 2020-March 2021) that examined food access, physical activity, and neighborhood environments across rural counties in a southeastern state. STUDY DESIGN: Multinomial logistic regression models assessed the likelihood of being active versus inactive and insufficiently active versus inactive in this rural population. Coefficients are presented as relative risk ratios (RRRs). Statistical significance was determined using 95% confidence intervals (CIs). All analyses were performed in STATA 16.1. DATA COLLECTION/EXTRACTION METHODS: Trained university students administered the survey. Students verbally obtained consent, read survey items, and recorded responses into Qualtrics software. Upon survey completion, respondents were mailed a $10 incentive card and printed informed consent form. Eligible participants were ≥18 years old and current residents of included counties. PRINCIPAL FINDINGS: Respondents in neighborhoods with relatively high social cohesion versus low social cohesion were more likely to be active than inactive (RRR = 2.50, 95% CI: 1.27-4.90, p < 0.01), after accounting for all other variables in the model. Income inequality and neighborhood walkability were not associated with different levels of physical activity in the rural sample. CONCLUSIONS: Study findings contribute to limited knowledge on the relationship between neighborhood environmental contexts and physical activity among rural populations. The health effects of neighborhood social cohesion warrant more attention in health equity research and consideration when developing multilevel interventions to improve the health of rural populations.

Dynamical kinetic energy quenching in the antiferromagnetic quantum critical metals

description: We study the dynamics of critical spin fluctuations and hot electrons at the metallic antiferromagnetic quantum critical points with $Z_2$ and $O(2)$ spin symmetries, building upon earlier works on the $O(3)$ symmetric theory. The interacting theories in $2+1$ dimensions are approached from $3+1$-dimensional theories in the $ε$-expansion that tunes the co-dimension of Fermi surface as a control parameter. The low-energy physics of the $Z_2$ and $O(2)$ theories qualitatively differ from each other and also from that of the $O(3)$ theory. The difference is caused by higher-order quantum corrections beyond the one-loop order that are important even to the leading order in $ε$. The naive loop-expansion breaks down due to dynamical quenching of kinetic energy: the speed of the collective mode ($c$) and the Fermi velocity perpendicular to the magnetic ordering vector ($v$) become vanishingly small at low energies. What sets the three theories apart is the hierarchy that emerges between the quenched kinetic terms. At the infrared fixed point, $c/v$ becomes $0$, $1$ and $\infty$ in the $Z_2$, $O(2)$ and $O(3)$ theories, respectively. At intermediate energy scales, the slow renormalization group (RG) flows of $c$ and $v$ toward their fixed point values create approximate scale invariance controlled by approximate marginal parameters. The manifold of those quasi-fixed points and the RG flow therein determines crossovers from scaling behaviours with transient critical exponents at intermediate energy scales to the universal scaling in the low-energy limit. If the symmetry group is viewed as a tuning parameter, the $O(2)$ theory corresponds to a multi-critical point which has one additional quasi-marginal parameter than the other two theories.

After reviewing results in dimensions 3 and 4, we will determine the graded Clifford algebras that are AS-regular algebras of global dimension 5 and generalize certain results to arbitrary dimension $p$. More specifically, we prove that there is a nice correspondence between $\mathbb{P}^1_{\mathbb{F}_p}$ and the algebras isomorphic to the quantum space $\mathbb{C}_{-1}[x_0,\ldots,x_{p-1}]$.

description: Hinführung: Portfolioarbeit gewinnt seit dem Ende der neunziger Jahre in den deutschsprachigen Ländern mehr an Bedeutung. Häufig sind Portfoliokonzepte im allgemeinen Bildungsbereich sowie in der LehrerInnenbildung zu finden. Zunehmend werden sie auch in der Ausbildung von Pflegelehrenden eingesetzt (Nauerth et al., 2016; Altmeppen & Ertl-Schmuck, 2018) und in der Pflegebildung implementiert (Löwenstein, 2016; Nauerth et al., 2016). Obgleich das Thema „Portfolio“ im Bildungsbereich zunehmend diskutiert und angewandt wird, wurden keine Publikationen zu Portfolioarbeit in der Palliative Care Weiterbildung gefunden. So ging die Verfasserin der Frage nach „Welche Potenziale Portfolioarbeit für die Palliative Care Weiterbildung birgt“. Daran anschließend wurde das Ziel verfolgt, ein Portfoliokonzept für die Palliative Care Weiterbildung aufzuzeigen. Methodisches Vorgehen: In der Masterthesis wird eine Konzeptentwicklung dargestellt. Das Konzept fußt auf Überlegungen und Begründungen, die sich aus der Analyse und Bewertung vorhandener Literatur und einem durchgeführten Experten-Workshop ergeben. Das weitere methodische Vorgehen und die Strukturierung der Arbeit basiert auf dem Verfahren zur Konzeptentwicklung nach Elsbernd (2016). Ergebnis: Das theoretisch sowie empirisch legitimierte didaktische Konzept schafft einen Rahmen für selbstbestimmtes, selbständiges sowie interessengeleitetes Lernen und Arbeiten. Daneben kann das Projektportfolio zur Einführung einer Kultur der Leistungspräsentation innerhalb der Palliative Care Weiterbildung für Pflegefachkräfte genutzt werden. Das Portfoliokonzept berücksichtigt Portfolioarbeit unter Darlegung der Zielsetzung und damit verbundene Aufgaben, Inhalte sowie wesentliche Gedanken der Fachöffentlichkeit. Für vielfältig zu bedenkende Bedingungen werden Anregungen und Umsetzungshinweise gegeben. So erhalten potenzielle AnwenderInnen die Möglichkeit Vorbedingungen zu sondieren und Anpassungen angesichts einer Implementation vorzunehmen.

description: Ever since the potential of algae in biotechnology was recognized, models describing the growth of algae inside photobioreactors have been proposed. These models are the basis for the optimization of process conditions and reactor designs. Over the last few decades, models became more and more elaborate with the increase of computational capacity. Thus far, these models have been based on light attenuation due to the absorption and scattering effects of the biomass. This manuscript presents a new way of predicting the apparent growth inside photobioreactors using simple models for enzymatic kinetics to describe the reaction between photons and the photosynthetic unit. The proposed model utilizes an inhibition kinetic formula based on the surrounding biomass to describe the average growth rate of a culture, which is determined by the local light intensities inside the reactor. The result is a mixed-inhibition scheme with multiple inhibition sites. The parameters of the new kinetic equation are replaced by empirical regression functions to correlate their dependency on incident light intensity and reactor size. The calibrations of the parameters and the regression functions are based on the numerical solutions of the growth rate computed with a classical Type II model. As a final verification, we apply the new equation in predicting the growth behavior of three phototrophic organisms in reactors of three different sizes.

description:
CONTEXT: In order to create a more diverse workforce, there is a need to involve historically excluded youth in public health-related work. Youth involvement in asset-based work experience approaches is especially relevant for rural areas with workforce shortages. OBJECTIVE: To explore the public health workforce development implications of community-based career exploration and asset mapping work experience from the perspective of Black youth. DESIGN: We used qualitative in-depth interviews with youth, aged 14 to 22 years, who participated in a work experience program anchored in several rural counties in southeastern United States. A phenomenological lens was applied for qualitative analyses with iterative, team-based data coding. Participants were also surveyed pre- and postprogram to supplement findings. PROGRAM: A rural community-based organization's work experience program consisted of 2 tracks: (1) Youth Connect-a career exploration track that included work placement within community agencies; and (2) MAPSCorps-a track that employs youth to conduct asset mapping for their community. RESULTS: We interviewed 28 of 31 total participants in the 2 tracks. We uncovered 4 emergent profiles in how youth described shifts in their perceptions of community: (1) Skill Developers; (2) Community Questioners; (3) Community Observers; and (4) Community Enthusiasts. In comparing between tracks, youth who participated in work experience that involved asset mapping uniquely described increased observation and expanded view of community resources and had greater increases in research self-efficacy than youth who participated only in career exploration. CONCLUSION: Asset mapping work experience that is directly placed in rural communities can expose Black youth to and engage them in essential public health services (assessing and mobilizing community assets) that impact their community. This type of program, directly integrated into rural communities rather than placed near academic centers, could play a role in creating a more diverse public health workforce.

subject: mechanical properties of materials

description: The residual stress distribution in extruded components and wires after a conventional forming process is frequently unfavourable for subsequent processes, such as bending operations. High tensile residual stresses typically occur near the surface of the wire and thus limit further processability of the material. Additional heat treatment operations or shot peening are often inserted to influence the residual stress distribution in the material after conventional manufacturing. This is time and energy consuming. The research presented in this paper contains an approach to influence the residual stress distribution by modifying the forming process for wire-like applications. The aim of this process is to lower the resulting tensile stress levels near the surface or even to generate compressive stresses. To achieve these residual compressive stresses, special forming elements are integrated in the dies. These modifications in the forming zone have a significant influence on process properties, such as degree of deformation and deformation direction, but typically have no influence on the diameter of the product geometry. In the present paper, the theoretical approach is described, as well as the model set-up, the FE-simulation and the results of the experimental tests. The characterization of the residual stress states in the specimen was carried out by X-ray diffraction using the sin2Ψ method.

Background: - Disparities in incident stroke risk among women by race and ethnicity persist. Few studies report the distribution and association of stroke risk factors by age group among a diverse sample of women. Methods: - Data from the Women's Health Initiative (WHI) Observational Study collected between 1993 and 2010 were used to calculate cumulative stroke incidence and incidence rates among non-Hispanic African American (NHAA), non-Hispanic white (NHW), and Hispanic white or African American (HWAA) women by age group in participants aged ≥50 years at baseline (N = 77,247). Hazard ratios (HRs) and 95% CIs for biological, behavioral, psychosocial, and socioeconomic factors overall and by race or ethnicity were estimated using sequential Cox proportional hazard regression models. Results: - Average follow-up time was 11.52 (SD, 3.48) years. The incident stroke rate was higher among NHAA (306 per 100,000 person-years) compared to NHW (279/100,000py) and HWAA women (147/100,000py) overall and in each age group. The disparity was largest at ages >75 years. The association between stroke risk factors (e.g., smoking, BMI, physical activity) and incident stroke varied across race and ethnicity groups. Higher social support was significantly associated with decreased stroke risk overall (HR:0.84, 95% CI, 0.76, 0.93); the degree of protection varied across race and ethnicity groups. Socioeconomic factors did not contribute additional stroke risk beyond risk conferred by traditional and psychosocial factors. Conclusions: - The distribution and association of stroke risk factors differed between NHAA and NHW women. There is a clear need for stroke prevention strategies that address factors driving racial disparities in stroke risk.

description: OBJECTIVE: A central goal of patient-centered care is to establish a therapeutic relationship. While remaining in tune with patient emotions, genetics providers must ask questions to understand medical histories that will inform the differential diagnosis, evaluation plan, and potential treatments.
METHODS: 195 audio-recorded conversations between providers and caregivers of pediatric patients with suspected genetic conditions were coded and analyzed. Coders identified sensitive history-taking questions asked by providers related to exposures and complications during pregnancy; ancestry and consanguinity; educational attainment of the caregiver; and family structure.
RESULTS: We highlight examples of providers: using stigmatizing language about conception or consanguinity; not clarifying the intent behind questions related to caregivers' educational attainment and work history; and making presumptions or assumptions about caregivers' race and ethnicity, family structure, and exposures during pregnancy.
CONCLUSION: Some questions and phrasing considered routine by genetics providers may interfere with patient-centered care by straining attempts to establish a therapeutic, trusting relationship. Additional research is needed to assess how question asking and phrasing impact rapport building and patient experience during genetics encounters.
PRACTICE IMPLICATIONS: Review of the purpose and need for medical history questions common to genetics practice could serve to improve patient-centered care.

description: Of the many recently discovered worlds orbiting distant stars, very little is yet known of their chemical composition. With the arrival of new transit spectroscopy and direct imaging facilities, the question of molecular detectability as a function of signal-to-noise (SNR), spectral resolving power and type of planets has become critical. In this paper, we study the detectability of key molecules in the atmospheres of a range of planet types, and report on the minimum detectable abundances at fixed spectral resolving power and SNR. The planet types considered - hot Jupiters, hot super-Earths, warm Neptunes, temperate Jupiters and temperate super-Earths - cover most of the exoplanets characterisable today or in the near future. We focus on key atmospheric molecules, such as CH4, CO, CO2, NH3, H2O, C2H2, C2H6, HCN, H2S and PH3. We use two methods to assess the detectability of these molecules: a simple measurement of the deviation of the signal from the continuum, and an estimate of the level of confidence of a detection through the use of the likelihood ratio test over the whole spectrum (from 1 to 16$μm$). We find that for most planetary cases, SNR=5 at resolution R=300 ($λ< 5μm$) and R=30 ($λ> 5μm$) is enough to detect the very strongest spectral features for the most abundant molecules, whereas an SNR comprised between 10 and 20 can reveal most molecules with abundances 10^-6 or lower, often at multiple wavelengths. We test the robustness of our results by exploring sensitivity to parameters such as vertical thermal profile, mean molecular weight of the atmosphere and relative water abundances. We find that our main conclusions remain valid except for the most extreme cases. Our analysis shows that the detectability of key molecules in the atmospheres of a variety of exoplanet cases is within realistic reach, even with low SNR and spectral resolving power.

description: Restoring limb motor function in individuals with spinal cord injury (SCI), stroke, or amputation remains a critical challenge, one which affects millions worldwide. Recent studies show through surface electromyography (EMG) that spared motor neurons can still be voluntarily controlled, even without visible limb movement . These signals can be decoded and used for motor intent estimation; however, current wearable solutions lack the necessary hardware and software for intuitive interfacing of the spared degrees of freedom after neural injuries. To address these limitations, we developed a wireless, high-density EMG bracelet, coupled with a novel software framework, MyoGestic. Our system allows rapid and tailored adaptability of machine learning models to the needs of the users, facilitating real-time decoding of multiple spared distinctive degrees of freedom. In our study, we successfully decoded the motor intent from two participants with SCI, two with spinal stroke , and three amputees in real-time, achieving several controllable degrees of freedom within minutes after wearing the EMG bracelet. We provide a proof-of-concept that these decoded signals can be used to control a digitally rendered hand, a wearable orthosis, a prosthesis, or a 2D cursor. Our framework promotes a participant-centered approach, allowing immediate feedback integration, thus enhancing the iterative development of myocontrol algorithms. The proposed open-source software framework, MyoGestic, allows researchers and patients to focus on the augmentation and training of the spared degrees of freedom after neural lesions, thus potentially bridging the gap between research and clinical application and advancing the development of intuitive EMG interfaces for diverse neural lesions.

description:
We investigated the impact of training interprofessional health-care teams in equity-centered leadership skills to address health inequity and the impacts of systemic racism and other types of bias. At the time of the study, of the 131 participants enrolled, 30.5% were mental-health professionals and 10% were psychologists. In this analysis we explored the immediate reactions and self-reported learning and ability gains of attendees of intensive training retreats that make up one aspect of our 3-year training intervention. Two cohorts had fully completed the 3-year training (2016–2020) and attended six intensive retreats, allowing for analysis of their self-perceived gains in their knowledge and ability, their likelihood to use the skills gained, and their reactions to session quality, relevance, presenter effectiveness, and presenter knowledge. Participants reported overall positive reactions to the presentations and content of the sessions and reported statistically significant gains in self-perceived knowledge and ability. Pretraining knowledge scores ranged from 3.59 to 4.35 on a 7-point Likert-type scale (49.9% to 65.4% of possible), and postexposure knowledge scores ranged from 5.1 to 6.08 (72.9% to 93.3%). Ability gains followed the same trend, with preretreat scores ranging from 3.59 to 4.35 (51.3% to 62.1%) and post scores ranging from 5.06 to 6.02 (72.3% to 91.8%). Our analysis shows that short, intensive retreats conducted with interprofessional teams are efficient, impactful, relevant to the health-care professionals’ needs, and a worthwhile use of providers’ limited time. These results suggest that the equity-centered leadership training approach used in this program yields immediate participant-reported gains in leadership knowledge and ability. Such gains are one part of a multifaceted leadership-development program that equips clinicians with skill to address complex leadership challenges such as health disparities and the underlying structural issues that cause them.

description: We investigate, within the envelope function approximation, the low-energy states of trions in graphene quantum dots. The presence of valley pseudospin in graphene as an electron degree of freedom apart from spin adds convolution to the interplay between exchange symmetry and the electron-electron interaction in the trion, leading to new states of trions as well as a low energy trion spectrum different from those in semiconductors. Due to the involvement of valley pseudospin, it is found that the low-energy spectrum is nearly degenerate and consists of states all characterized by having an antisymmetric (pseudospin) (spin) component in the wave function, with the spin (pseudospin) part being either singlet (triplet) or triplet (singlet), as opposed to the spectrum in a semiconductor whose ground state is known to be nondegenerate and always a spin singlet in the case of X- trions. We investigate trions in the various regimes determined by the competition between quantum confinement and electron-electron interaction, both analytically and numerically. The numerical work is performed within a variational method accounting for electron mass discontinuity across the QD edge. The result for electron-hole correlation in the trion is presented. Effects of varying quantum dot size and confinement potential strength on the trion binding energy are discussed.

description: Anthropogenic impacts on North American grasslands, a highly endangered ecosystem, have led to declines of prairie dogs, a keystone species, over 98% of their historical range. While impacts of this loss on maintenance of grassland biodiversity have been widely documented, much less is known about the consequences on the supply of ecosystem services. Here we assessed the effect of prairie dogs in the supply of five ecosystem services by comparing grasslands currently occupied by prairie dogs, grasslands devoid of prairie dogs, and areas that used to be occupied by prairie dogs that are currently dominated by mesquite scrub. Groundwater recharge, regulation of soil erosion, regulation of soil productive potential, soil carbon storage and forage availability were consistently quantitatively or qualitatively higher in prairie dog grasslands relative to grasslands or mesquite scrub. Our findings indicate a severe loss of ecosystem services associated to the absence of prairie dogs. These findings suggest that contrary to a much publicize perception, especially in the US, prairie dogs are fundamental in maintaining grasslands and their decline have strong negative impacts in human well – being through the loss of ecosystem services.

description: Metallic magnetic calorimeters (MMCs) are widely used for various experiments in fields ranging from atomic and nuclear physics to x-ray spectroscopy, laboratory astrophysics or material science. Whereas in previous experiments single pixel detectors or small arrays have been used, for future applications large arrays are needed. Therefore, suitable multiplexing techniques for MMC arrays are currently under development. A promising approach for the readout of large arrays is the microwave SQUID multiplexer that operates in the frequency domain and that employs non-hysteretic rf-SQUIDs to transduce the detector signals into a frequency shift of high $Q$ resonators which can be monitored by using standard microwave measurement techniques. In this paper we discuss the design and the expected performance of a recently developed and fabricated 64 pixel detector array with integrated microwave SQUID multiplexer. First experimental data were obtained characterizing dc-SQUIDs with virtually identical washer design.
