description: Veganism and animal rights activism are minority ethical beliefs and practices amply covered by the academy and the media, often in stark contrasts. This outsider coverage influences public perception, often leaving insider perspectives misunderstood and overgeneralized. The work of this dissertation is primarily concerned with the application of a folkloristic lens to vegan and animal rights communities in St. John's, Newfoundland and Labrador and Toronto, Ontario in an effort to counterbalance outsider opinions of these groups with the nuances of insider voices and lived experiences. This dissertation also makes the case for a folkloristics of ethical belief via the exploration of veganism in the lives of St. John's and Toronto vegans and examines various elements of performativity in Toronto animal rights activism. Central to this work is an argument rooted in the philosophical writing of Antonio Gramsci and the folklore scholarship of David Hufford that veganism is a tradition of counter-hegemonic belief and that its counterpart, carnism, is not simply senso comune but a tradition of hegemonic belief. The philosophical positions of Peter Singer, Tom Regan, Josephine Donovan, and Gary Francione on the rights of animals are situated alongside folkloristic scholarship of belief to produce a framework for the analysis of ethical belief in vegan life narratives belonging to research participants in both cities. These narratives provide insights into the nuanced perspectives of participants about animals and food when they were children and young adults, detail their transitions from carnism to veganism, outline their current ethical beliefs systems, and offer commentary about the challenges they face and supports they receive from others for their beliefs. Following these life narratives, four ethnographic accounts of participant observation at animal rights demonstrations illustrate some of the ways veganism is enacted and performed. The Roaring Silence Against Bill 156 march provides an opportunity to analyze communicative competence in speakouts. The Toronto Cow Save vigil explores the place of pilgrimage, memorial, and persuasion at slaughterhouse demonstrations along with their impacts upon various target audiences. The Toronto Cow Save vigil problematizes hegemonic violence against vegan animal rights activists via the death of Regan Russell. Finally, the GRASS Bar Isabel protest examines the spatial and verbal tensions created by protesters and police at a dynamic, hyperlocal restaurant demonstration against the presence of foie gras on the menu.
A Serious Game Intervention for Increasing Motivation of Children with Cancer to Fight Cancer
Creators: name: Chai, Carmen Wang Er
Publisher: name: Swinburne
Year: 2024

description: Treatment adherence is critical for children with cancer. However, treatment non-adherence is common due to the high side-effect burdens of treatment and a lack of knowledge about one's illness and treatment. Therefore, an intervention for childhood cancer patients is required to help motivate them to adhere to treatment, encourage daily self-care to reduce treatment side effects, and educate them about cancer and treatment. This study demonstrates the design and development of a virtual pet serious game intervention based on the Protection Motivation Theory. The evaluation results of the intervention with childhood cancer patients in Malaysia are also presented.

description: User engagement has become a much-cited construct in human-computer interaction (HCI) design and evaluation research and practice. Constructed as a positive and desirable outcome of users' interactions, more frequent and longer interactions are considered evidence of engagement. Disengagement, when discussed, is considered a best avoided outcome of technology use or a solution to problematic technology use. In the case of the former, disengagement may signal usability issues or user disinterest, while the latter emphasizes that some engaging interactions can result in negative consequences (e.g., addiction) for end-users. In this paper, we draw upon examples from HCI research and digital tools to present a more nuanced understanding of the symbiotic relationship between engagement and disengagement in order to propose a new definition and novel ways to model disengagement. Further, we challenge generalizations that dichotomize engagement (positive, continuous, accompanied by high interactivity and beneficial to end-users) and disengagement (negative, stopping use or detrimental use) and invite readers to interpret engagement in the context of desirability with respect to users' goals and perceived agency. We concluded with implications that invite the reader to make space for disengagement and move beyond usage data in the evaluation of engagement. This paper is a call to step away from the practice of engagement-for-engagement's sake, and to reflect on whether and when engagement is meaningful and desirable for end users.

description: Duty hour policies were originally implemented with
the goal of protecting both resident physicians and
patients. The policies were based on literature demonstrating
that long shift lengths and absence of workhour
regulations were dangerous to resident physicians
and to the patients they care for (Landrigan et al. 2004;
Nasca, Day, and Amis 2010; Accreditation Council for
Graduate Medical Education [ACGME] n.d. ). However,
current policies regulating resident physicians’ duty
hours have received significant criticism. Many have
argued that these policies are, in fact, detrimental to
both residents and patients (Drolet et al. 2013; Bilimoria
et al. 2016). In an effort to address these concerns, alternative
(more flexible) models of resident education
have been developed and are currently being tested,
most notably in the FIRST and iCOMPARE Trials (Bilimoria
et al. 2016; iCOMPARE 2016). Dubov and colleagues
(2016) join this debate with the assumption that
current policies have had the unintended consequence
of destroying the individual patient–provider relationship; a shift-work mentality has surfaced and
resident physicians’ decision ownership has suffered.

description: What’s heard most often when
colleagues complain about
teaching is dislike of testing and
grading. Many love classroom
discussions and advising students
on projects, but dread having to
assess students’ content mastery and
discuss grades with them. Three matters appear especially troublesome:
(1) the amount of time spent
preparing questions and grading
them, (2) the trauma of dealing
with student complaints when the
tests are returned, and (3) the
realization that many students are
correct when they sometimes assert
that our testing methods have little
to do with their learning.
On-chip integration of 2D layered graphene oxide films for high performing nonlinear optics
Creators: name: Zhang, Yuning
Publisher: name: Swinburne
Year: 2024

description: All-optical integrated photonic devices based on the nonlinearity offer a powerful solution to achieve on-chip far superior signal processing speeds without the need to convert the optical signal to the electrical domain (or vice versa) as well as the added benefits of a compact footprint, small power consumption, high stability, mass-producibility, and the strong potential to reduce cost. The growing demand for high-performance nonlinear integrated photonic devices has prompted the hybrid integration of two-dimensional (2D) materials with ultrahigh nonlinearity to overcome the limitations of existing integrated photonic platforms. My work focuses on improving the nonlinear performance of these hybrid devices.

Year: 2016

description: Primarily drawing from the Mestiz@ Theory of Intelligences (Carrillo, 2013), this article examines how working class Latino male college students in North Carolina navigate multiple cultural worlds and excel academically. This work addresses current gaps in the literature that largely fail to unpack the experiences of academically successful Latin@ college students in the southeastern U.S. and also informs current work on males of color in schools, a topic that, in this region, is largely devoid of any research focus. Moreover, this study provides implications for teacher preparation and for extending current research that focuses on low-income youth of color.
Immunological considerations for treating globoid cell leukodystrophy

Publisher: name: Wiley
Year: 2016

description: Globoid cell leukodystrophy (GLD, or Krabbe's disease) is a severe inherited neurodegenerative disease caused by the lack of a lysosomal enzyme, GALC. The disease has been characterized in humans as well as three naturally occurring animal models, murine, canine, and nonhuman primate. Multiple treatment strategies have been explored for GLD, including enzyme replacement therapy, small-molecule pharmacological approaches, gene therapy, and bone marrow transplant. No single therapeutic approach has proved to be entirely effective, and the reason for this is not well understood. It is unclear whether initiation of a neuroinflammatory cascade in GLD precedes demyelination, a hallmark of the disease, but it does precede overt symptoms. This Review explores what is known about the role of inflammation and the immune response in the progression of GLD as well as how various treatment strategies might interplay with innate and adaptive immune responses involved in GLD. The focus of this Review is on GLD, but these concepts may have relevance for other, related diseases. © 2016 Wiley Periodicals, Inc.

description: Calcium- and integrin-binding protein 1 (CIB1) is a small, ubiquitously expressed protein that was first identified as an intracellular binding partner of a platelet-specific α-integrin cytoplasmic tail. Although early studies revealed a role for CIB1 in regulating platelet integrin activity, recent studies have indicated a more diverse role for CIB1 in many different cell types and processes, including calcium signaling, migration, adhesion, proliferation, and survival. Increasing evidence also points to a novel role for CIB1 in cancer and cardiovascular disease. In addition, an array of CIB1 binding partners has been identified that provide important insight into how CIB1 may regulate these processes. Some of these binding partners include the serine/threonine kinases, p21-activated kinase 1 (PAK1), apoptosis signal-regulating kinase 1 (ASK1), and polo-like kinase 3 (PLK3). Structural and mutational studies indicate that CIB1 binds most or all of its partners via a well-defined hydrophobic cleft. Although CIB1 itself lacks known enzymatic activity, it supports the PI3K/AKT and MEK/ERK oncogenic signaling pathways, in part, by directly modulating enzymes in these pathways. In this review, we discuss our current understanding of CIB1 and key questions regarding structure and function and how this seemingly diminutive protein impacts important signaling pathways and cellular processes in human health and disease.-Leisner, T.

Year: 2016

description: BACKGROUND: The transition to adulthood, the gradual change in roles and responsibilities, is identified as a challenging time for adolescents and young adults with physical disabilities, including those with cerebral palsy. Health care, education, employment, independent living, and community engagement have been identified as areas of concern. However, relatively little research has been done to understand the experiences, perceptions, and needs of individuals with cerebral palsy as they transition toward adulthood.
OBJECTIVE: The objective of this study was to explore the transition experiences, perceptions, and needs of young adults with cerebral palsy living in one state in the southeastern United States.
METHODS: Focus groups with nine young adults with cerebral palsy (19-34 years) were conducted. The focus group interview explored the preparation for transition and experiences navigating adulthood. The audio-recorded groups were transcribed and analyzed using thematic analysis.
RESULTS: Young adults with cerebral palsy identified numerous challenges associated with navigating adulthood. The main themes were: 1) being thrust into adulthood; 2) navigating systems and services; 3) understanding and managing my body; and 4) dealing with stereotypes and prejudice.
CONCLUSIONS: The findings highlight the need for a holistic approach to transition with a focus on building capacity and empowerment. To navigate complex systems of care, "navigators" or "facilitators" are needed. Additionally, practitioners and service providers in adult systems need further education about cerebral palsy.
Nitrogen and organic matter cycling in coastal systems

description: The depletion of dissolved oxygen in bottom waters and the expansion of harmful algae blooms are most common responses of aquatic ecosystems to eutrophication, and thus also of the semi-enclosed, brackish Baltic Sea. To improve management and focus on strategies to reduce nutrient loads a better understanding of coastal system dynamics is highly needed. Overall, it was shown that it seems necessary to reevaluate the role of sediments for the nitrogen turnover and its nitrogen removal capacity and to consider dissolved organic substances as potential nutrient sources.

description: A key step in the Nuss procedure, placement of a curved bar that lifts sternum in pectus excavatum, is fixation of the bar to the chest to stabilize the sternum in an anterior position. Complications of bar position and fixation are among the major complications of the Nuss procedure. Numerous techniques have been described in effort to reduce the risk of bar displacement, including the use of bar stabilizers at one or both ends of the bar, encircling the bar and adjacent rib with suture or wire, and using two bars at different levels of the chest.

Entscheidungsprozess zur Familiengründung in Partnerschaften

description: The transition to parenthood can be viewed as the result of social interaction. It signifies the outcome of a decision-making process of two individuals in a relationship. Nevertheless, little research has, so far, looked into how the interpersonal couple level influences the decision. What needs to be considered here is, firstly, the relative importance of both partners’ desire to have a child, or the partners’ disposition towards reproduction. Secondly, the reciprocal influence ,of both partners on each other within the decision-making process, and thirdly the relevance of both partners’ biographical background with regard to their respective decisions and disposition must be assessed. In this article, a nonlinear simultaneous probit model is introduced, with the help of which the relative effects of the decisionmaking process within the relationship can be estimated. The analysis is based on the “Bamberg Married Couples Panel”. The results of the model show an equal influence of both partners’ dispositions on the decision itself. However, they also demonstrate different levels of influence of the partners within the process of interaction and convergence. Zusammenfassung Obwohl der Übergang in die Elternschaft als Ergebnis einer sozialen Interaktion und damit als Ergebnis eines Entscheidungsprozesses zwischen zwei Individuen im Kontext einer Partnerschaft verstanden werden kann, existieren bisher kaum gesicherte Forschungserkenntnisse auf der Paarebene. Dieses betrifft erstens die relative Bedeutsamkeit der Kinderwünschebzw. Dispositionen beider Partner für die generative Entscheidung, zweitens die wechselseitige Beeinflussung beider Partner im Entscheidungsprozess und drittens die Relevanz der biographischen Kontexte beider Partner für die eigene Disposition sowie für die des Partners. Im Folgenden wird ein nicht-lineares simultanes Probit-Modell vorgestellt, mit dem die relativen Effekte im innerpartnerschaftlichen Entscheidungsprozess zur Familiengründung geschätzt werden können. Als Datengrundlage dient das Bamberger Ehepaar-Panel. Die Ergebnisse des Modells zeigen einen gleichwertigen Einfluss der Dispositionen beider Partner auf die Entscheidung, jedoch ungleiche Gewichte der Partner im Interaktions- bzw.Annäherungsprozess.

description: Kelley and Evans (2017) found that income inequality (measured at the societal level) did not affect individual well-being in advanced societies but increased individual well-being in developing societies. This paper discusses how this empirical patterning of the inequality-well-being relationship may arise from mechanisms related to the relationship of inequality with economic development (at the macro-sociological level) and to the evolution of emotional reactions to inequality (at the individual-psychological level).
The Official Madrasas of Soviet Uzbekistan

description: Sadum, the muftiate of the Soviet Central Asian republics, operated three Islamic educational establishments at various times in the half century following World War ii. This article argues that, far from being rubber-stamp bodies imparting official propaganda, these madrasas benefited from significant influence from three constituencies in the religious sphere: the state, sadum, and influential unregistered ʿulamā beyond the reach of both. As institutions at the intersection of “official” and “unofficial” Islam, they offer historians of Soviet Central Asia a rare glimpse into debates about Islamic education under communism.
Abortion and miscarriage
Creators: name: Berg, Amy
Publisher: name: Springer Nature
Year: 2016

description: Opponents of abortion sometimes hold that it is impermissible because fetuses are persons from the moment of conception. But miscarriage, which ends up to 89 % of pregnancies, is much deadlier than abortion. That means that if opponents of abortion are right, then miscarriage is the biggest public-health crisis of our time. Yet they pay hardly any attention to miscarriage, especially very early miscarriage. Attempts to resolve this inconsistency by adverting to the distinction between killing and letting die or to the difficulty of preventing miscarriage fail, leaving a dilemma. Opponents of abortion should either advocate a substantial shift in our political and medical priorities or else give up the view that fetuses are persons from the moment of conception.

description: The concept of parent-adolescent relationships demonstrating resilience as they navigate relationship conflict is an unexplored area. This doctoral research aimed to contribute toward filling this gap, to better support family clinicians, parents and adolescents to employ evidence-based adaptive conflict navigation strategies that are shown to reflect relationship resilience. The findings of this research emphasise that although parent-adolescent conflicts can be challenging, they can also be navigated in an adaptive manner. It is hoped that findings support family clinicians, parents and adolescents to resolve conflicts in a more adaptive manner and cultivate more resilient parent-adolescent relationships.

description: Valence is a dominant semantic dimension, and it is fundamentally linked to basic approach-avoidance behavior within a broad range of contexts. Previous studies have shown that it is possible to approximate the valence of existing words based on several surface-level and semantic components of the stimuli. Parallelly, recent studies have shown that even completely novel and (apparently) meaningless stimuli, like pseudowords, can be informative of meaning based on the information that they carry at the subword level. Here, we aimed to further extend this evidence by investigating whether humans can reliably assign valence to pseudowords and, additionally, to identify the factors explaining such valence judgments. In Experiment 1, we trained several models to predict valence judgments for existing words from their combined form and meaning information. Then, in Experiment 2 and Experiment 3, we extended the results by predicting participants’ valence judgments for pseudowords, using a set of models indexing different (possible) sources of valence and selected the best performing model in a completely data-driven procedure. Results showed that the model including basic surface-level (i.e., letters composing the pseudoword) and orthographic neighbors information performed best, thus tracing back pseudoword valence to these components. These findings support perspectives on the nonarbitrariness of language and provide insights regarding how humans process the valence of novel stimuli.

description: (1) Background: There are limited data concerning inter-tumoral and inter-metastatic heterogeneity in clear cell renal cell carcinoma (CCRCC). The aim of our study was to review published data and to examine mutation profile variability in primary and multiple pulmonary metastases (PMs) in our cohort of four patients with metastatic CCRCC. (2) Methods: Four patients were enrolled in this study. The clinical characteristics, types of surgeries, histopathologic results, immunohistochemical and genetic evaluations of corresponding primary tumor and PMs, and follow-up data were recorded. (3) Results: In our series, the most commonly mutated genes were those in the canonically dysregulated VHL pathway, which were detected in both primary tumors and corresponding metastasis. There were genetic profile differences between primary and metastatic tumors, as well as among particular metastases in one patient. (4) Conclusions: CCRCC shows heterogeneity between the primary tumor and its metastasis. Such mutational changes may be responsible for suboptimal treatment outcomes in targeted therapy settings.

title: Emerging Security Threats in Modern Digital Computing Systems: A Power Management Perspective
Creators: name: Shridevi, Rajesh Jayashankara
Publisher: name: Utah State University
Year: 2019

description: Design of computing systems — from pocket-sized smart phones to massive cloud based data-centers — have one common daunting challenge : minimizing the power consumption. In this effort, power management sector is undergoing a rapid and profound transformation to promote clean and energy proportional computing. At the hardware end of system design, there is proliferation of specialized, feature rich and complex power management hardware components. Similarly, in the software design layer complex power management suites are growing rapidly. Concurrent to this development, there has been an upsurge in the integration of third-party components to counter the pressures of shorter time-to-market. These trends collectively raise serious concerns about trust and security of power management solutions.
In recent times, problems such as overheating, performance degradation and poor battery life, have dogged the mobile devices market, including the infamous recall of Samsung Note 7. Power outage in the data-center of a major airline left innumerable passengers stranded, with thousands of canceled flights costing over 100 million dollars. This research examines whether such events of unintentional reliability failure, can be replicated using targeted attacks by exploiting the security loopholes in the complex power management infrastructure of a computing system.
At its core, this research answers an imminent research question: How can system designers ensure secure and reliable operation of third-party power management units? Specifically, this work investigates possible attack vectors, and novel non-invasive detection and defense mechanisms to safeguard system against malicious power attacks. By a joint exploration of the threat model and techniques to seamlessly detect and protect against power attacks, this project can have a lasting impact, by enabling the design of secure and cost-effective next generation hardware platforms.
Predicting motor impairments among children born extremely preterm or very low birthweight

Publisher: name: Wiley
Year: 2016

description: Children born very preterm and/or very low birthweight
have a risk of cerebral palsy (CP) that is at least 30 times
higher than that of children born at term. While CP is not
the most common developmental disability found among
infants born very preterm (cognitive disability is more
prevalent), it is the adverse outcome most strongly associated
with very preterm birth. There is some indication that
the prevalence of CP among children born very preterm
and/or very low birthweight has fallen over the past two
decades, although conflicting data have been reported and
the risk of CP remains unacceptably high. Even among
children born very preterm and/or very low birthweight
without CP, the risk of motor impairment is markedly
increased as compared to children born at term. To
enhance the quality of prenatal counselling, and the targeting
of efforts to improve neurodevelopmental outcomes,
parents and physicians need reliable information about
prognostic factors for CP and other motor impairments
among children born very preterm and/or very low birthweight.

description: Acute generalized exanthematous pustulosis (AGEP) is a rare cutaneous eruption that often is a reaction to medications, most commonly antibiotics. Clinically, AGEP closely mimics pustular psoriasis and also is similar to subcorneal pustular dermatosis and IgA pemphigus. For clinicians, it is important to differentiate AGEP from pustular psoriasis. Acute generalized exanthematous pustulosis will have an acute drug association. Few cases have been known to be caused by hydroxychloroquine (HCQ). Proper therapeutic management of AGEP includes withdrawal of the offending agent, and resolution typically occurs within 15 days. We report a case of AGEP after HCQ administration that did not follow the usual course of resolution after medication cessation. The patient continued to experience cutaneous eruptions that waxed and waned for 81 days. Hydroxychloroquine has a particularly long half-life and is a known cause of AGEP; therefore, it is possible that HCQ-induced AGEP may not follow the typical rapid recovery time.

Identity as a Moderator and Mediator of Communication Effects: Evidence and Implications for Message Design

description: Advertisements, movies, and other forms of media content have potential to change behaviors and antecedent psychological states by appealing to identity. However, the mechanisms that are responsible for persuasive effects of such content have not been adequately specified. A recently proposed model of communication effects (the prism model) advances the study of mechanisms and argues that identity can serve as both a moderator and mediator of communication effects on behavior-relevant outcomes. These intervening roles are made possible by the complex nature of identity (including multiple self-concepts and sensitivity to cues) and messages that cue the importance of and activate particular self-concepts. This article builds on development of the model by presenting empirical support based on re-analysis of an experiment in which participants viewed either a more-stigmatizing or less-stigmatizing portrayal of a recovering drug addict. In line with the model's propositions, exposure to the less-stigmatizing condition led to increases in perspective taking which then led to more acceptance (mediation by identity), while level of perspective taking also changed the effect of condition on acceptance (moderation by identity). These results provide support for the model's proposition of simultaneous intervening roles. The authors discuss implications for strategic communication research and practice.

https://zoobank.org/ urn:lsid:zoobank.org:act: F9033E59-37E0-4636-AAF8-0BD7421BC9D7
 Type species: Lithosia brevimacula Alphéraky, 1897, by present designation.
 Diagnosis. Species of the new genus (Figs 1–4) are clearly different from other groups previously included in Thysanoptyx (Figs 5–8) due to their broader forewing with a darker, ochreous-brown or grey ground colour (it is pale yellow in Collitoptyx gen. n. and Thysanoptyx), and a short medial patch, which is strongly elongate in Collitoptyx gen. n. and Thysanoptyx. The similar forewing shape and markings are known in certain species of the genus Teulisna Walker, 1862 (Figs 11, 12), including its type species. However, the male genitalia of Thysanoplisna gen. n. (Figs 13–15) are fundamentally different from Teulisna (Fig. 19) in the structure of the vinculum, distal saccular process, and phallus, while the female genitalia of the new genus (Fig. 20) can easily be distinguished from Teulisna (Fig. 24) by the narrow antrum opening at the posterior margin of the 7 th abdominal sternite (it is dilated, rugose and opening in the middle of the 7 th sternite in Teulisna), and the posterior section of the corpus bursae bearing a large gelatinous protrusion, whereas in Teulisna it is narrow, membranous and rugose. The male genitalia structure of Thysanoplisna gen. n. (Figs 13–15) is also fundamentally different from Thysanoptyx (Fig. 17) and is very close to the externally dissimilar Indalia (illustrated by Dubatolov & Zolotuhin (2011, as Manulea, partim.) and Macià et al. (2022)), and the only distinctive feature differing Thysanoplisna gen. n. from this genus is the uncus structure, which is weakly sclerotised and dorso-ventrally flattened in the new genus and heavily sclerotised and cylindrical in cross section in Indalia. The main differences between the new genus and Indalia are found in the female copulatory organ structure. Compared to Indalia, the female genitalia of Thysanoplisna gen. n. have a corpus bursae clearly subdivided into the anterior and posterior sections with the latter one bearing a large gelatinous protrusion, whereas the corpus bursae of Indalia is sack-like.
 Distribution. Species of the genus are known from mainland China and northern Indochina.
 Etymology. The generic name is an aggregate of the genus-group names Thysanoptyx and Teulisna. Gender is feminine.
 Remarks. The new genus comprises the species included by Volynkin & Dubatolov (2017) in the ‘ Thysanoptyx brevimacula species-group’. The genus is currently under revision by Volynkin et al. (in prep.).

description: Objective Rates of resident physician burnout range from 60 to 76 % and are rising. Consequently, there is an urgent need for academic medical centers to develop system-wide initiatives to combat burnout in physicians. Academic psychiatrists who advocate for or treat residents should be familiar with the scope of the problem and the contributors to burnout and potential interventions to mitigate it. We aimed to measure burnout in residents across a range of specialties and to describe resident- and program director-identified contributors and interventions. Methods Residents across all specialties at a tertiary academic hospital completed surveys to assess symptoms of burnout and depression using the Maslach Burnout Inventory and the Patient Health Questionnaire-9, respectively. Residents and program directors identified contributors to burnout and interventions that might mitigate its risk. Residents were asked to identify barriers to treatment. Results There were 307 residents (response rate of 61 %) who completed at least one question on the survey; however, all residents did not respond to all questions, resulting in varying denominators across survey questions. In total, 190 of 276 residents (69 %) met criteria for burnout and 45 of 263 (17 %) screened positive for depression. Program directors underestimated rates of burnout, with only one program director estimating a rate of 50 % or higher. Overall residents and program directors agreed that lack of work-life balance and feeling unappreciated were major contributors. Forty-two percent of residents reported that inability to take time off from work was a significant barrier to seeking help, and 25 % incorrectly believed that burnout is a reportable condition to the medical board. Conclusions Resident distress is common and most likely due to work-life imbalance and feeling unappreciated. However, residents are reluctant to seek help. Interventions that address work-life balance and increase access to support are urgently needed in academic medical centers.

description: Genus Thysanoptyx Hampson, 1894
 Type species: Lithosia tetragona Walker, 1854, by original designation.
 Diagnosis. The male genitalia of the genus (Fig. 17) are characterised by the combination of the following features. (1) The uncus is short and apically bifurcate. (2) The valva is short and broad (in proportion to the tegumen-vinculum complex). (3) The costa is heavily sclerotised. (4) The phallus is long and broad (in proportion to the genital capsule size). (5) The vesica is large, has long and broad diverticula, and bears massive cornuti and heavily sclerotised plates. The female genitalia of Thysanoptyx (Fig. 22) are vaguely reminiscent of those of Thysanoplisna (Fig. 20) but distinguished by the lack of the large gelatinous protrusion of the posterior section of the corpus bursae, which is typical of the similar genus.
 Species grouping. The genus is subdivided into two species-groups established by Volynkin & Dubatolov (2017): the T. tetragona species-group comprises species with a short distal saccular process, whereas the distal saccular process of the T. oblonga species-group (illustrated by Volynkin & Dubatolov (2017)) is elongate, and the general shape of the valva is similar to Thysanoplisna gen. n., Indalia, and Manulea.
 Distribution. The genus is widespread from South India and Himalaya through Indochina to Sundaland.
