A multi-year retrospective quantitative implementation evaluation of Safer Opioid Prescribing, an opioid prescribing continuing education program for Canadian healthcare providers

Abstract Background: Continuing health professions education is considered an important policy intervention for the opioid epidemic. Besides examining effectiveness or impact, it is important to also study health policy implementation to understand how an intervention was delivered within complex policy and practice environments. Implementation outcomes can be used to help interpret continuing health profession education effects and impacts, help answer questions of “how” and “why” programs work, and inform transferability. Methods: We conducted a retrospective quantitative implementation evaluation of the 2014–2017 cohort of Safer Opioid Prescribing, a Canadian continuing health professions education program consisting of three synchronous webinars and in-person workshop. To measure reach and dose, we examined participation and completion data. We used Ontario physician demographic data, including regulatory status with respect to narcotics to examine relevant trends. To measure fidelity and participant responsiveness, we analyzed participant-provided evaluations of bias, active learning and relevance to practice. We used descriptive statistics and measures of association for both continuous and categorical variables. We used logistic regression to determine predictors of workshop participation and analysis of covariance to examine variation in satisfaction across different-sized sessions. Results: Eighty four percent of participants were family physicians with representative reach to non-major urban physicians. Webinar completion rate was 86.2% with no differences in completion based on rurality, gender or status with the regulatory college. Participants who had regulatory involvement with respect to opioids were more likely to be male, have been in practice for longer and participate in the workshop. Participants reported no significant bias and highly rated both active learning and relevance to practice regardless of their cohort size. Conclusions: This evaluation demonstrates that Safer Opioid Prescribing was implemented as intended. Over a short period and without any external funding, the program reached more than 1% of the Ontario physician workforce. This suggests that Safer Opioid Prescribing is a good model for using virtual continuing health professions education to reach a critical mass of prescribers to drive population level opioid utilization changes. This study represents a methodological advance of adapting evaluation methods from health policy and complex interventions for continuing health professions education.

The Development of Carrier Aviation Support System Architecture using DoDAF

This paper describes a development of aircraft carrier aviation support system architecture using DoDAF. The aircraft carrier, a warship performing a role of mobile sea air base in offensive and defense mission, is super system that is comprised of carrier itself and carrier-based airwing. Performing critical role in step with aviation operations in carrier-airwing interactions, the aviation support system of aircraft carrier is also system of systems. It requires a complex and integrated approach based on systems engineering in establishing concept of this complex systems. In this view, this study establishes an operational scenario and derives operational requirements by identifying aviation operations environment on deck of aircraft carrier. The study presents the operational architecture of the carrier aviation support system by using DoDAF and CASE tool CORE.

Controversies around the function of LARP1

The RNA-binding protein LARP1 has generated interest in recent years for its role in the mTOR signalling cascade and its regulation of terminal oligopyrimidine (TOP) mRNA translation. Paradoxically, some scientists have shown that LARP1 represses TOP translation while others that LARP1 activates it. Here, we present opinions from four leading scientists in the field to discuss these and other contradictory findings.

Papadiamantis’ Athenian short stories: social representation and characterization

As a contribution to the re-evaluation of Papadiamantis’ literary oeuvre this thesis sets out to explore the social dimension of his work by focusing on his Athenian short stories. This literary corpus, a significant part of the literature describing the urban environment in the last decade of the nineteenth and the first decade of the twentieth century, offers an insight into Papadiamantis’ views on the social reality of the Greek capital and society at large. The first chapter outlines the socio-historical parameters that contributed to the increasing presence of Athens in Greek prose fiction of that period and explores the ways different urban narratives sought to record the changing physiognomy of the capital. The second and third chapters focus on the texts and provide a close reading of the Athenian stories. In particular, the second chapter concentrates on the social context and brings to the fore the complex range of social ills that the author wishes to stigmatize either explicitly or implicitly. The third chapter centres on the characters in the Athenian short stories and demonstrates how the urban social context moulds the individual’s character and victimizes the most vulnerable social members. The critical representation of the capital in the Athenian short stories points to Papadiamantis’ scepticism about the emerging norms of modern existence and reveals a socially conscious author.

Experiments on the Mobility of 2,3,7,8-Tetrachlorodibenzo-<i>p</i>-dioxin at Times Beach, Missouri

The Times Beach Dioxin Research Station was constructed in 1984 under the direction of the University of Missouri and the Missouri Department of Natural Resources. The station offers investigators the opportunity to conduct experiments under field conditions on a well characterized soil. During the Summer of 1984, a series of six experiments were established by Monsanto at the station to study the environmental transport of 2,3,7,8-tetrachlorodibenzo-p-dioxin (TCDD) under field conditions. The plots initially contained uniformly sized soil that was thoroughly mixed to provide a consistent TCDD level. The experiments were designed to study the movement of TCDD in soil. The experiments found that: 1. Vaporization and/or photodegradation at the surface of a contaminated soil is a loss mechanism for TCDD. 2. The presence of water and/or sunlight is an important environmental parameter for the mobility of TCDD. Water appears to weaken the binding of TCDD to the soil matrix. 3. TCDD accumulation by plants has a minimal impact on the soil concentration of TCDD.

[Animal experiment studies on the effect of intra-articular injections of antiphlogistic-antirheumatic agents on articular cartilage in vivo].

Animal experiments have shown that weekly intraarticular injections of various antiphlogistic/antirheumatic drugs into the knee joint induce progressive degenerative alterations in joint cartilage. The observed degenerations and destructions are most similar to the pathophysiology of osteoarthrosis in humans. By X-ray and macroscopic techniques the degenerative processes can be studied qualitatively and quantitatively. A decrease of joint space is a sensitive and early indicator of osteoarthrosis and showed that 10 weeks after intraarticular application of Ibuprofen, Phenylbutazone, Oxyphenbutazone, Flufenamic acid, Niflumic acid, Na-salicylate, Clofezone, Bumadizone and Dexamethasone the degenerative alterations in the injected knee joints were more severe than by applications of Chloroquine,D-penicillamine, Salicylamide and Indometacin. The degenerative effect on articular cartilage by the investigated drugs can be explained by their inhibitory potency on anabolic metabolism of connective tissue. The results of our animal experiments lead to the conclusion, that antiinflammatory drugs may also in man induce or accelerate degenerative joint diseases especially after long term treatment with high doses of these drugs.

[Repeated Keratoplasties and graft rejection].

It is always difficult to estimate the risk of recurrence of maladie due greffon in repeat grafts, and the intricate factors in these cases are open to complex analysis. A number of grafts have been divided into those which were repeated on the same eye and those on the two eyes of the same subject. In the majority of cases the grafts were penetrating (105 out of 118 cases), and the overall analysis of the results is dependent on the following factors: -- Grafts performed as primary procedures in one eye or both eyes: if they develop maladie due greffon, it is usually the 'endothelial' form which appears between the first and third month; the prognosis is good (53-66 p. 100 cure with steroid therapy). It was noticed that when grafts were performed on both eyes, there was a risk of developing maladie due greffon on the eye with the first graft simultaneously if it developed in the second eye. -- Repeated grafts on the same eye caused maladie due greffon of varying types (endothelial, stromal and mixed) with a much earlier occurrence. The prognosis is worse (6 p. 100 cure, 33 p. 100 semi-failure and 60 p. 100 failure). -- Finally repeated grafts on severe leucomas (burns, leucoma adherens, inflammatory keratopathies with active neovascularisation, etc.): these practically all end in failure due either to immunological reactions or inflammatory or cicatrical changes. A table of visual acuities obtained after treatment in cases of cure, incomplete cure and failure is given at the end of this paper.

Symbolic computation of stiffness matrices for quadratic triangular elements

Conditions under which it is possible to determine exact integrals for stiffness matrix entries for a 6-noded isoparametric plane strain element have been investigated. Considerable use has been made of the algebraic manipulation language MAPLE in obtaining the results. It has been shown that exact integration can be performed when the Jacobian becomes a degenerate quadratic and in some other cases. A precise algebraic condition has been found for the degenerate case and related to the geometry of the element. Copyright © 1999 John Wiley & Sons, Ltd.

Residues of Pesticides and Heavy Metals in Polish Varietal Honey

The levels of chemical pollutants were determined in 30 samples of varietal honey from southeastern Poland, including 223 pesticides (insecticides, herbicides, fungicides, acaricides, plant growth regulators, and veterinary drugs) and 5 heavy metals (Pb, Cd, Hg, Cu, and Zn). In 10% of the samples, no pesticide residues were found. The most frequently identified pesticides were thiacloprid (90% of the samples, max 0.337 mg/kg), acetamiprid (86.6%, max 0.061 mg/kg), carbendazim (60%, max 0.049 mg/kg), DMF (56.6%, max 0.038 mg/kg), total amitraz (53.3%, max 0.075 mg/kg), thiamethoxam (26.6%, max 0.004 mg/kg), thiacloprid-amide (13.3%, max 0.012 mg/kg), dimethoate (10%, max 0.003 mg/kg), azoxystrobin (10%, max 0.002 mg/kg), tebuconazole (6.66%, max 0.002 mg/kg), and boscalid (3.33%, max 0.001 mg/kg). The acceptable limits for the compounds were not exceeded in any sample. The Pb content ranged between 0.044 and 0.081 mg/kg. The concentration of Hg and Cd did not exceed 5.0 µg/kg and 0.02 mg/kg, respectively. The honey variety significantly (p &lt; 0.01) influenced the content of Cu, which ranged from 0.504 (rapeseed honey) to 1.201 mg/kg (buckwheat). A similar tendency (p &gt; 0.05) was observed for the Zn content, which ranged from 0.657 mg/kg (linden) to 2.694 mg/kg (buckwheat). Honey produced in southeastern Poland was shown to be safe for human consumption.

Data from Therapeutic Targeting of Stromal-Tumor HGF-MET Signaling in an Organotypic Triple-Negative Breast Tumor Model

&lt;div&gt;Abstract&lt;p&gt;The tumor microenvironment (TME) promotes proliferation, drug resistance, and invasiveness of cancer cells. Therapeutic targeting of the TME is an attractive strategy to improve outcomes for patients, particularly in aggressive cancers such as triple-negative breast cancer (TNBC) that have a rich stroma and limited targeted therapies. However, lack of preclinical human tumor models for mechanistic understanding of tumor–stromal interactions has been an impediment to identify effective treatments against the TME. To address this need, we developed a three-dimensional organotypic tumor model to study interactions of patient-derived cancer-associated fibroblasts (CAF) with TNBC cells and explore potential therapy targets. We found that CAFs predominantly secreted hepatocyte growth factor (HGF) and activated MET receptor tyrosine kinase in TNBC cells. This tumor–stromal interaction promoted invasiveness, epithelial-to-mesenchymal transition, and activities of multiple oncogenic pathways in TNBC cells. Importantly, we established that TNBC cells become resistant to monotherapy and demonstrated a design-driven approach to select drug combinations that effectively inhibit prometastatic functions of TNBC cells. Our study also showed that HGF from lung fibroblasts promotes colony formation by TNBC cells, suggesting that blocking HGF-MET signaling potentially could target both primary TNBC tumorigenesis and lung metastasis. Overall, we established the utility of our organotypic tumor model to identify and therapeutically target specific mechanisms of tumor–stromal interactions in TNBC toward the goal of developing targeted therapies against the TME.&lt;/p&gt;Implications:&lt;p&gt;Leveraging a state-of-the-art organotypic tumor model, we demonstrated that CAFs-mediated HGF-MET signaling drive tumorigenic activities in TNBC and presents a therapeutic target.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;/div&gt;

Permeable Boundaries: Connecting Coursework and Community Work in Disciplinary Curricula

Many colleges and universities today integrate high-impact educational practices with best practices for community engagement to create curricula that are developmentally powerful for students and community partners. Participating in such educational practices, as George Kuh (2008) has argued, leads to positive results for college students of many different backgrounds. Building upon this work, Brownell and Swaner (2010) studied the outcomes for students participating in five of the practices (first-year seminars, learning communities, service learning, undergraduate research, and capstone courses and project) alone or as part of an integrated effort. A special focus of their work was examining the differential outcomes for students from traditionally underserved populations. Common outcomes for students included academic gains, increased civic engagement, higher persistence rates, greater interaction with faculty and peers, and increased tolerance for and engagement with diversity; for students from underserved populations, higher grades and rates of persistence joined with a greater sense of belonging on campus and higher rates of school enrollment as important outcomes.KeywordsCommunity EngagementCivic EngagementCommunity PartnerCommunity WorkPublic SociologyThese keywords were added by machine and not by the authors.

Steering control of payoff-maximizing players in adaptive learning dynamics

Evolutionary game theory provides a mathematical foundation for cross-disciplinary fertilization, especially for integrating ideas from artificial intelligence and game theory. Such integration offers a transparent and rigorous approach to complex decision-making problems in a variety of important contexts, ranging from evolutionary computation to machine behavior. Despite the astronomically huge individual behavioral strategy space for interactions in the iterated Prisoner's Dilemma (IPD) games, the so-called Zero-Determinant (ZD) strategies is a set of rather simple memory-one strategies yet can unilaterally set a linear payoff relationship between themselves and their opponent. Although the witting of ZD strategies gives players an upper hand in the IPD games, we find and characterize unbending strategies that can force ZD players to be fair in their own interest. Moreover, our analysis reveals the ubiquity of unbending properties in common IPD strategies which are previously overlooked. In this work, we demonstrate the important steering role of unbending strategies in fostering fairness and cooperation in pairwise interactions. Our results will help bring a new perspective by means of combining game theory and multi-agent learning systems for optimizing winning strategies that are robust to noises, errors, and deceptions in non-zero-sum games.

Spirituality in organizational leaders – Ways to Inner, Ways to Wisdom

Purpose Work is central to human life. It requires high mental and emotional involvement from organizational leaders, whose decisions have far-reaching impacts. Currently, industrial and technological societies struggle with growing problems of trust in leadership, mental health, feelings of emptiness and the search for relevant meaning, which highlights the importance of attending to spirituality at work. This study aims to fill two main gaps: the need for empirical research on spirituality in organizational leaders, and access to the meanings and experiences of leaders themselves. Design/methodology/approach Qualitative data from 25 Portuguese organizational leaders were collected through in-depth interviews. We followed a phenomenological approach to reveal participants' own meanings and experiences of spirituality. Content analysis was performed to identify emergent categories and a framework of spirituality development. Findings The results suggest the participant’s plural views and spirituality practices, which generate common achievements – Ways to Inner. Relations of leaders’ spirituality with their development and integration at work are also evidenced – Ways to Wisdom. A spirituality development framework is presented with aspects revealed in leaders’ ways, from deepening individual issues to the orientation for existential impacts. Originality/value This study proposes a framework of spirituality development based on empirical data, with the potential for adaptation to various professional contexts. Spirituality is approached as a human dimension in leaders, as whole beings and a decisive dimension of present organizational change towards a holistic work paradigm.

Two cases of isolated unilateral paralysis of hypoglossal nerve after uncomplicated orotracheal intubation.

We report two cases of postoperative unilateral hypoglossal nerve palsy following uncomplicated orotracheal intubation for plastic surgery. Both patients underwent a long procedure and were installed in a non physiological position. These two factors might have played an important role in the mechanism of nerve damage. Furthermore, other etiologies of neurological injury like a difficult airway or anatomical anomalies were not present. The aim of these two case reports is to sensitize the anesthetists to hypoglossal nerve palsy and to highlight a potential clinical problem of positioning during plastic surgery.
