AI Article Synopsis
Article Abstract
Affect control theory (ACT) and status characteristics theory (SCT) offer separate and distinct explanations for how individuals interpret and process status- and power-relevant information about interaction partners. Existing research within affect control theory offers evidence that status and power are related to the affective impressions that individuals form of others along the dimensions of evaluation and potency, respectively. Alternately, status characteristics theory suggests that status and power influence interaction through the mediating cognitive construct of performance expectations. Although both theories have amassed an impressive amount of empirical support, research has yet to articulate theoretical and empirical connections between affective impressions and performance expectations. The purpose of our study is to address this gap. Elaborating a link between ACT and SCT in terms of their central concepts can serve as a stepping stone to improving the explanatory capacity of both theories, while providing a potential bridge by which they can be employed jointly.

Kinematic Alignment Does Not Result in Clinically Important Improvements After TKA Compared With Mechanical Alignment: A Meta-analysis of Randomized Trials.
Clin Orthop Relat Res
January 2025
Division of Orthopaedic Surgery, University of Toronto, Toronto, ON, Canada.
Background: There is debate as to whether kinematic TKA or mechanical alignment TKA is superior. Recent systematic reviews have suggested that kinematically aligned TKAs may be the preferred option. However, the observed differences in alignment favoring kinematic alignment may not improve outcomes (performance or durability) in ways that patients can perceive, and likewise, statistical differences in outcome scores sometimes observed in clinical trials may be too small for patients to notice.

Anesthesia and critical care department, Amiens Hospital University, F-80054 Amiens, France.
Background: Cardiac surgery can lead to dysregulation with a pro-inflammatory state, resulting in adverse outcomes. Hemadsorption using the AN69 membrane (Oxiris membrane) has the properties to chelate inflammatory cytokines. We hypothesized that in patients at high risk of inflammation, the use of the Oxiris membrane could decrease inflammation, preserve endothelial function, and improve postoperative outcomes.

College of Chemistry, Nankai University, Tianjin 300071, China.
Developing new materials capable of the safe and efficient removal of toxic substances has become a research hotspot in the field of materials science, as these toxic substances pose a serious threat to human health, both directly and indirectly. Covalent organic frameworks (COFs), as an emerging class of crystalline porous materials, have advantages such as large specific surface area, tunable pore size, designable structure, and good biocompatibility, which have been proven to be a superior adsorbent design platform for toxic substances capture. This review will summarize the synthesis methods of COFs and the properties and characteristics of typical toxicants, discuss the design strategies of COF-based adsorbents for the removal of toxic substances, and highlight the recent advancements in COF-based adsorbents as robust candidates for the efficient removal of various types of toxicants, such as animal toxins, microbial toxins, phytotoxins, environmental toxins, The adsorption performance and related mechanisms of COF-based adsorbents for different types of toxic substances will be discussed.

Foot Ankle Int
January 2025
Howard Head Sports Medicine at Vail Health, Vail, CO, USA.
Background: Activity level is a benchmark to document patient recovery; however, there is a lack of instrumentation to measure activity level specific to the foot and ankle. The purpose of this study was to develop a foot and ankle activity level scale (FAALS) instrument that will serve as an effective clinical tool for practitioners by assigning an activity level to patients.
Methods: This was a 4-phase study with 3 rounds of data collection (n = 1432).

Department of Thoracic Surgery, National Cancer Center/National Clinical Research Center for Cancer/Cancer Hospital, Chinese Academy of Medical Sciences and Peking Union Medical College, Beijing, China.
Background: Tracheal, bronchial, and lung cancers (TBL cancers) pose a significant global health challenge, with rising incidence and mortality rates, particularly in China. Studies from the Global Burden of Disease (GBD), 2021, can guide screening and prevention strategies for TBL cancer. This study aims to provide a comprehensive analysis of the burden of TBL cancers in China compared to global data.
