Multi-item retro-cueing effects refer to better working memory performance for multiple items when they are cued after their offset compared to a neutral condition in which all items are cued. However, several studies have reported boundary conditions, and findings have also sometimes failed to replicate. We hypothesized that a strategy to focus on only one of the cued items could possibly yield these inconsistent patterns.

Purpose: Despite robust quality improvement efforts in healthcare, learning from patient safety incidents remains difficult. Our study explores counter-vailing powers shaping learning processes and possibilities in healthcare organizations, with a focus on social, political and organizational dynamics of learning.

Design/methodology/approach: Deploying concepts of situated curriculum, boundary work and interconnected knowledge practices, we interviewed staff and physicians ( = 15) in a large Academic Health Science Centre in Canada about their experiences of incident investigations and resultant information sharing.

In wildland firefighting, the air gap (AG) between clothing and the human body can effectively decrease heat transferred to skin but has a negative impact on thermal aging of clothing. Heat transfer to skin from a fire source can led to burn injuries and heat is transmitted between adjacent AGs parallel to the skin surface. An open AG simulator was developed to explore the dual effects of the AG on fabric thermal aging and skin thermal protection.

serovar Mbandaka, a prevalent foodborne pathogen, poses a threat to public health but remains poorly understood. We have determined the phylogenomic tree, genetic diversity, virulence, and antimicrobial resistance (AMR) profiles on a large genomic scale to elucidate the evolutionary dynamics within the Mbandaka pan-genome. The polyphyletic nature of this serovar is characterized by two distinct phylogenetic groups and inter-serovar recombination boundaries, that potentially arising from recombination events at the H2-antigen loci.

Introduction to the special issue: A festschrift for Janice Kiecolt-Glaser - At the origin of stress and immunity.

Compr Psychoneuroendocrinol

November 2024

Department of Psychological Sciences, Rice University, Houston, TX, USA.

This special issue of pays tribute to Janice Kiecolt-Glaser's groundbreaking career and marks her well-earned retirement. As a leader in human psychoneuroimmunology (PNI), Kiecolt-Glaser transformed the domain by showing that everyday stressors, along with significant life events, can significantly affect the immune system. Her groundbreaking research on informal dementia caregivers revealed the detrimental effects of chronic psychological stress, including delayed wound healing, virus reactivation, heightened proinflammatory cytokine levels, and weakened vaccine responses.
