Familiarity in Rural Life: Protocol for a Scoping Review and Concept Analysis.

Background: Familiarity is a concept often used in literature but is not well defined or understood. As a key concept in rural nursing theory, the conceptual understanding of familiarity is currently incomplete. The findings from this scoping review will inform a concept analysis using Walker and Avant's method and to identify and define the missing key components of familiarity.

The Relationship between Boredom Proneness, Attachment Styles and Compulsive Sexual Behavior.

Affect regulation is associated with compulsive sexual behavior (CSB) despite ongoing debate about its inclusion in diagnostic criteria. Previous studies on two specific affect regulation constructs - boredom proneness and attachment styles - suggest that affect regulation is associated with CSB. We tested a moderation model of the effects of attachment anxiety and attachment avoidance on the relationship between boredom proneness and CSB.

Antigen and Immunogen: An Investigation into the Heterogeneity of Immunology Terminology in Learning Resources.

The need to focus on immunology education has never been greater. The coronavirus disease 2019 pandemic has revealed that a significant proportion of our society is vaccine hesitant. Some of this hesitancy may stem from a general lack of understanding of how the immune system and immunological interventions work.

Gaps in Framing and Naming: Commentary to "A Viewpoint on Accent Services".

Purpose: In this commentary, we offer a critique of "A Viewpoint on Accent Services: Framing and Terminology Matter" (Grover et al., 2022). We argue that the authors' proposal to rename and reframe accent modification lacks criticality, which actually hinders-rather than advances-the movement toward equitable, culturally sustaining, and emancipatory practices.

Evaluation of neural innervation in the human conventional outflow pathway distal to Schlemm's canal.

The distal outflow pathway of the human eye consists of the outer wall of Schlemm's canal, collector channels, and the deep-scleral, mid-scleral and episcleral vessels. It is the last region of transit for aqueous humor before returning to the venous system. While the trabecular meshwork, scleral spur, and inner wall of Schlemm's canal have been extensively analyzed to define their contributions to aqueous outflow, the role of the distal outflow pathway is not completely understood.

The Application of Differing Machine Learning Algorithms and Their Related Performance in Detecting Skin Cancers and Melanomas.

Skin cancer, and its less common form melanoma, is a disease affecting a wide variety of people. Since it is usually detected initially by visual inspection, it makes for a good candidate for the application of machine learning. With early detection being key to good outcomes, any method that can enhance the diagnostic accuracy of dermatologists and oncologists is of significant interest.

Comparison of VOpeak from the Progressive Aerobic Cardiovascular Endurance Run (PACER) and treadmill in children.

Background/objectives: The purpose of this study was to investigate the difference in peak oxygen consumption (VOpeak) during a graded treadmill test and the Progressive Aerobic Cardiovascular Endurance Run (PACER) in a sample of 7-14 year old children.

Methods: Forty-four participants (25 boys, 19 girls) had VO assessed during a peak treadmill test and the PACER by a portable indirect calorimeter on non-consecutive days. Exercise parameters were compared between exercise tests by paired t-tests.

"Sex Seems Less Important When You Are Worried About a Deadly Virus." A Content Analysis of Reported Reasons for Changes in Sexual Behavior and Satisfaction During the COVID-19 Pandemic.

The purpose of this study is to assess how the COVID-19 pandemic impacted various sexual behaviors and levels of sexual and relationship satisfaction by performing a content analysis of participants' (N = 1051 American adults) responses to open-ended survey questions. Results revealed a variety of impacts that increased, decreased, or otherwise qualitatively changed sexual behavior and satisfaction. Major themes included emotions and mental health, changes in routines, social distancing and fears related to COVID-19, and changes in romantic relationships.

Countercontrol: A Relational Frame Theory (RFT) Account and Revival of a 70-Year-Old Skinnerian Term.

Countercontrol is a Skinnerian operant concept that posits that an individual's attempts to exert control over another person's behavior may evoke a countercontrolling response from the person being controlled that functions to avoid or escape the potentially aversive conditions generated by the controller. Despite Skinner's historical concerns regarding the detrimental effects of countercontrol in terms of hindering optimal societal growth and cultural evolution, the concept has not been widely applied within behavior analysis. Drawing from recent developments in rule-governed behavior and relational frame theory, this article seeks to explicate countercontrol from a contemporary behavior analytic perspective and presents several modern-day societal applications.

Twitter: More than Tweets for Undergraduate Student Researchers.

During the COVID-19 pandemic, biology educators were forced to think of ways to communicate with their students, engaging them in science and with the scientific community. For educators using course-based undergraduate research experiences (CUREs), the challenge to have students perform real science, analyze their work, and present their results to a larger scientific audience was difficult as the world moved online. Many instructors were able to adapt CUREs utilizing online data analysis and virtual meeting software for class discussions and synchronous learning.

Pilot study for the development of a screening questionnaire to detect sarcopenic obesity.

Background/goal: Caloric restriction-the most prevalent obesity treatment-has a 97% failure rate when spread over 5-7 years. Sarcopenic obesity is thought to be the consequence of chronic dieting and the cause of weight management problems. This pilot study's goal was to develop a screening questionnaire that detects sarcopenic obesity in young and middle-aged female adults.

Storytelling and the Humanbecoming Family Model.

The authors in this article will present storytelling through the lens of the humanbecoming family model. From this perspective, storytelling can be viewed as the following: (a) family storytelling as a mode of fostering personal and family becoming, (b) family storytelling as a confirming of family beliefs and values, and (c) family storytelling as a way of addressing issues of grief and loss. Selected literature is presented to highlight the essences, paradoxes, and processes of the humanbecoming family model.

Examining the Provision of School-Based Athletics in Public High Schools Among Girls in the United States.

Background: In order to better understand some of the barriers to athletic opportunities for girls, we examined school-level characteristics to assess how they are associated with both the provision and participation in athletic opportunities for girls across US public high schools.

Methods: Cross-sectional data for this study comes from the bi-annual Civil Rights Data Collection which collects school-level information for all US public schools between the 2009-2010 through 2017-2018 school years.

Results: Several important school-level characteristics were found to limit the provision of athletic opportunities, participation rates and athletic participation gender equity ratios for girls and included the percent of the student body who were eligible for free lunch and who were racial minorities.

Predictors of Burnout, Job Satisfaction, and Turnover Among CRNAs During COVID-19 Surging.

This study examined the relationship between demographic factors, job characteristics, relations between Certified Registered Nurse Anesthetists (CRNAs) and administration, and conflict between work and personal responsibilities using structural equation modeling to determine levels of burnout, job satisfaction, and turnover intention among CRNAs during COVID-19 surges. Survey data were collected from CRNAs practicing in Massachusetts and Texas through an email link distributed by their respective state associations of nurse anesthetists. Results of the structural equation modeling showed a decrease in feedback, low CRNA-administration relations scores, and prioritizing work over personal responsibilities were predictive of CRNA burnout.

[2]Rotaxane as a switch for molecular electronic memory application: A molecular dynamics study.

As VLSI technology is shifting from microelectronics to nanoelectronics era, bi-stable [2]rotaxane emerges as a promising candidate for molecular electronics. A typical voltage-driven [2]rotaxane consists of a cyclobis-(paraquat-p-phenylene) macrocycle encircling a dumbbell shape molecular chain and moving between two stations on the chain: tetrathiafulvalene (TTF) and 1,5-dioxynaphthalene (DNP). As a molecular switch, the macrocycle can move reversibly between two stations along its axis with appropriate driving voltage, resulting in two stable molecular conformational states with distinct high and low resistance.

A holistic health determinants model for public health nursing education and practice.

Baccalaureate nursing graduates (BSNs) in the 21st century need to be prepared to manage the population health needs of diverse populations across the lifespan and take actions to improve health equity. A need for a Holistic Health Determinants Model that included the Social Determinants of Health was identified. A model incorporating the Healthy People 2020 Health Determinants Model and the Healthy People 2030 Social Determinants of Health Model was developed.

A school-based health centre partnership: Faculty practice, nursing student learning and wellness in youth, families and community.

Aims And Objectives: This paper describes the development of a SBHC with an innovative model of care that grew out of a partnership between a public-school district and a university nursing programme in the midwestern region of the United States.

Background And Purpose: Persistent barriers to health and health care experienced by youth are well documented. School-based health centres (SBHCs) can improve educational and health outcomes, positively impacting health equity.

Distilling Check-in/Check-Out into Its Core Practice Elements Through an Expert Consensus Process.

Unlabelled: Check-in/Check-out (CICO) is a widely implemented evidence-based program for supporting students with at-risk levels of social and emotional behavior concerns. It is comprised of several core features described in the previous literature, including , which are the specific actions that are delivered directly to students, and which are actions that support the implementation by adults. Practice elements and implementation components are both important to implementation but have been combined and conflated in descriptions of CICO implementation.

Analysis of Intermediates and Products from the Dehydrogenation of Mg(BH).

The thermodynamic properties of key compounds Mg(BH), MgBH, MgBH, Mg(BH), Mg(BH), and MgBH, proposed to be formed in the release of hydrogen from magnesium borohydride Mg(BH) and the uptake of hydrogen by MgB, have been investigated using solid-state density functional theory (DFT) calculations. More accurate tretment of the cell-size effects with respect to the entropies was also investigated in order to improve the accuracy of the thermodynamic properties of complex borohydrides. We find that the zero-point energy corrections can lower the electronic energies of reaction by 20-30 kJ/(mol H) for these intermediates, while adding the thermal and entropy contibutions results in a total decrease of up to ∼50 kJ/(mol H).

The PID Life Index: an interactive tool to measure the status of the PID healthcare environment in any given country.

Background: The "Primary Immunodeficiencies (PIDs) principles of care" were published in 2014 as the gold standard for care of patients with PIDs, setting a common goal for stakeholders to ensure that patients with PID have access to appropriate care and good quality of life. Since then, IPOPI (the International Patient Organisation for Primary Immunodeficiencies), has been working with national PID patient organisations as well as collaborating with scientific and medical institutions and experts to bring these principles closer to the day-to-day life of individuals with PIDs.

Method: The six PID Principles of Care were revised to consider advances in the field, as well as political developments that had occurred after their initial publication in 2014.

Characterizing seasonal transitions: Breeding-like morphology and behavior during the late non-breeding season in green anole lizards.

Seasonally breeding animals, such as green anole lizards (Anolis carolinensis), allow for the examination of the control of reproduction during different reproductive states. During the breeding season, the gonads are large and reproductively active. Following the breeding season, gonads regress and become less active, and the lizards enter a refractory period where breeding is inhibited.

Compulsive sexual behavior, religiosity, and spirituality: A systematic review.

Background And Aims: In recent years, increasing attention has been given to the relationship between compulsive sexual behavior (CSB), religiosity, and spirituality. This review summarizes research examining the relationship CSB has with religiosity and spirituality, clarifying how these constructs inform the assessment and treatment of this syndrome.

Methods: The present paper reviews research published through August 1, 2021, using the Preferred Reporting Items for Systematic Reviews and Meta-analyses (PRISMA) guidelines.

The PID Principles of Care: Where Are We Now? A Global Status Report Based on the PID Life Index.

A global gold standard framework for primary immunodeficiency (PID) care, structured around six principles, was published in 2014. To measure the implementation status of these principles IPOPI developed the PID Life Index in 2020, an interactive tool aggregating national PID data. This development was combined with a revision of the principles to consider advances in the field of health and science as well as political developments since 2014.
