This article assesses the individual and joint impact of pressure, temperature, and relative humidity on the accuracy of atmospheric CO2 measurements collected by unmanned aerial systems (UASs) using low-cost commercial non-dispersive infrared (NDIR) sensors. We build upon previous experimental results in the literature and present a new dataset with increased gradients for each environmental variable to match the abrupt changes found in UAS-based atmospheric vertical profiles. As a key contribution, we present a low-complexity correction procedure to mitigate the impact of these variables and reduce errors in this type of atmospheric CO2 measurement. Our findings support the use of low-cost NDIR sensors for UAS-based atmospheric CO2 measurements as a complementary in situ tool for many scientific applications.

This article aims to utilize an adapted version of Trentham's Inverse Consistency Protocol (ICP) as a way in which any ecclesial organization can act productively when confronted with seemingly controversial paradigms such as social emotional learning (SEL). The ICP can help Christian leaders discern potential areas of inconsistency or affirm authentic congruence with an organization's faith tradition. Tenets from the Collaborative for Academic, Social, and Emotional Learning (CASEL) were submitted through the four-step protocol. Findings suggest that CASEL is a valuable framework when applied authentically and that ICP is a constructive tool for engaging in the social sciences with integrity.

A sample of 496 early childhood teachers was assigned randomly in two phases to a series of professional development (PD) interventions. Phase I intervention was a 14-week course on effective teacher-child interactions. Participants were then re-randomized into Phase II intervention, which consisted of individual, interactions-focused coaching. Impacts of the course, coaching, and their combination were evaluated relative to business-as-usual controls on knowledge of effective interactions, skill in detecting effective interactions, observed teacher-child interactions, beliefs about intentional teaching, and children's classroom engagement. "Research Findings:" Teachers exposed to the course demonstrated greater knowledge of and skills in detecting effective teacher child-interactions, and displayed higher quality instructional support in their interactions with children during the year following the course. Teachers who received coaching were also observed to display higher levels of instructional support and children in their classrooms displayed more positive engagement with adults. However, neither teachers nor children appeared to gain additional benefit from the combination of the course and coaching. "Practice or Policy:" The results have important implications for efforts to systematically and efficiently improve the quality of early childhood programs through the delivery of PD that is directly aligned with teachers' classroom interactions.

Today's teachers face intense stress (Robinson et al. in School Mental Health 15(1):78-89, 2023), which means they often need to regulate strong emotions, like frustration and anxiety, in the classroom. Given the importance of this skill for classroom life, it is essential that we gain a more nuanced understanding of teachers' emotion regulation (ER). The teacher ER literature is growing, and we aim to contribute meaningfully in three ways. First, we examine two general ER strategies (cognitive reappraisal and expressive suppression) descriptively in a sample of 190 public school teachers (grades K-6) from 33 elementary schools. Second, we explore whether these two ER strategies are correlated with important teacher (burnout, years of experience) and classroom (class size) factors. Third, we examine whether these ER strategies are linked to observed emotionally supportive classroom interactions. Teachers in this sample reported frequent use of cognitive reappraisal and relatively infrequent use of expressive suppression in general. These two ER strategies were not significantly correlated with one another. Teachers reporting greater use of cognitive reappraisal reported less burnout, while teachers reporting greater use of expressive suppression reported more burnout. Teachers with more years of experience also reported greater use of cognitive reappraisal. Contrary to our hypotheses, cognitive reappraisal and expressive suppression were not related to class size and did not predict unique variance in observed emotionally supportive interactions. Implications for teacher supports and interventions are discussed.

Abstract Wind wave observations in shallow coastal waters are essential for calibrating, validating, and improving numerical wave models to predict sediment transport, shoreline change, and coastal hazards such as beach erosion and oceanic inundation. Although ocean buoys and satellites provide near-global coverage of deep-water wave conditions, shallow-water wave observations remain sparse and often inaccessible. Nearshore wave conditions may vary considerably alongshore due to coastline orientation and shape, bathymetry and islands. We present a growing dataset of in-situ wave buoy observations from shallow waters (

Higher education institutions must recognize the responsibility to support online adult learners as members of a larger global community and technological advancements have made this a reality. COVID-19 restrictions to in-person learning highlighted the need for online learning platforms that promote the benefits of teacher presence, consider the tenets of the Community of Inquiry model, and commit to the principles of andragogy. A need to explore the possibilities for fostering global citizenship among adult learners in online higher education environments has been identified as a problem space and a methodological approach will be used to connect findings from the literature with best practices for practitioners. Global citizenship is not a new concept; however, current and worldwide events have created a renewed dedication to the construct. Discussions based on the literature and established theoretical frameworks will precede practical implications for directors, course designers, and instructors. Online education will be described as ripe with opportunities for higher education institutions to foster global citizenship among adult learners.

The beach–foredune system at Bengello Beach has been monitored monthly to bimonthly at four profiles (P1–P4) since 1972 and documented the building of a foredune. This paper addresses the remarkable changes which occurred in 2022 as storm waves overtopped and trimmed this foredune at all profiles, then later removed this entire feature at two of the profiles (P3, P4) but not the others (P1, P2). Wave parameters for these storm events, measured by deepwater and nearshore wave buoys, enable a comparison of storm characteristics and resulting beach–foredune impact. During the storm event which destroyed the foredune, nearshore wave height exceeded deepwater wave height, in contrast with other storms that year. The beach–foredune lost 78 m3/m in 2022 and the notable 1974 storms that impacted this coastline resulted in 95 m3/m volume loss. During 2023, beach recovery has occurred, but not rebuilt the foredune. It had persisted for ~40 years enduring many other severe storm events, and the coastal protection afforded by the dune system has been compromised. This highlights the need to consider dune morphology in assessments of erosion hazard and inundation risk along similar coastlines.

ABSTRACT To evaluate the resistance mechanisms among Pseudomonas aeruginosa clinical isolates exhibiting meropenem (MEM) MIC values higher than meropenem-vaborbactam (MEV). P. aeruginosa clinical isolates collected in US hospitals from 2014 to 2019 were susceptibility tested. Whole-genome and transcriptome sequencing were performed. Results were analyzed for strain typing, acquired β-lactamases, and mutations in chromosomal genes; gene expression was measured for known β-lactam resistance contributors. Results were compared to a control group of 10 P. aeruginosa isolates displaying MIC values at 8 mg/L for meropenem ± vaborbactam (MEM = MEV). Out of 88 isolates displaying MEM > MEV, 33 (37.5%) isolates had reproducibly lower MIC values for meropenem-vaborbactam compared to meropenem when retested. The expression of mexX, mexY, mexZ, and ampC was significantly greater among a higher percentage of the MEM > MEV isolates. Furthermore, the association of mexXY and ampC overexpression was detected in 17/33 MEM > MEV isolates and only 1/10 MEM = MEV isolate. In addition, the Pseudomonas-derived cephalosporinase amino acid substitution R79Q was detected among 33.3% of the isolates displaying MEM > MEV, and none of the isolates displayed MEM = MEV. Other resistance mechanisms were not observed or were equally observed in both groups. In rare cases, vaborbactam plays a role in lowering the meropenem MIC values in P. aeruginosa clinical isolates likely due to the inhibition of the AmpC gene that was overexpressed in the presence of upregulation of MexXY with or without alterations in the AmpC gene. IMPORTANCE Pseudomonas aeruginosa isolates are intrinsically resistant to multiple antimicrobial agents and meropenem is an important therapeutic option to treat infections caused by this organism. Meropenem-vaborbactam activity is similar to that of meropenem alone against P. aeruginosa isolates. Isolates belonging to this species that display lower meropenem-vaborbactam compared to meropenem are rare. We initiated this study to understand the resistance mechanisms that could lead to lower meropenem-vaborbactam MIC values when compared to meropenem alone. We documented that isolates displaying lower meropenem-vaborbactam exhibited overexpression of MexXY and AmpC. In addition, isolates displaying the R79Q PDC (AmpC) mutation were more likely to display lower meropenem-vaborbactam when compared to isolates displaying the same MIC values for these agents.

Social housing for dairy calves has a range of benefits for social development, yet there is limited understanding of how social bonds form early in life. We characterized effects of early life social contact on the development of social preference for calves varying in familiarity. A total of 40 calves were tested in a social preference test at 4 weeks of age to assess the formation of social bonds and preference for their peers. Within an open-field social preference test, focal calves were presented with two stimulus calves, one ‘more familiar’ and one ‘less familiar’. We found that pair-housed calves spent more time in close proximity with either stimulus calf and had a greater preference for their pen-mate, compared to another calf reared within visual contact. Individually housed calves exhibited no preference for calves reared within visual but not physical contact compared to calves that were completely unfamiliar. Of the calves that approached both stimulus calves, individually housed calves that approached the ‘less familiar’ calf first spent less time near the ‘more familiar’ calf, whereas behavior of pair-housed calves was not affected by the first calf approached. These results suggest that physical contact is necessary for the development of social bonds in young dairy calves, and early life social housing may support the development of normal social behavior in dairy cattle.

Dorsal root ganglion (DRG) toxicity has been consistently reported as a potential safety concern after delivery of adeno-associated viruses (AAVs) containing gene-replacement vectors but has yet to be reported for RNAi-based vectors. Here, we report DRG toxicity after AAV intra-CSF delivery of an RNAi expression construct-artificial microRNA targeting superoxide dismutase 1 (SOD1)-in non-human primates (NHPs) and provide evidence that this can be recapitulated within mice. Histopathology evaluation showed that NHPs and mice develop DRG toxicity after AAV delivery, including DRG neuron degeneration and necrosis and nerve-fiber degeneration that were associated with increases in cerebrospinal fluid (CSF) and serum phosphorylated neurofilament heavy chain (pNF-H). RNA-sequencing analysis of DRGs showed that dysregulated pathways were preserved between NHPs and mice, including increases in innate/adaptive immune responses and decreases in mitochondrial- and neuronal-related genes, following AAV treatment. Finally, endogenous miR-21-5p was upregulated in DRGs of AAV-treated NHPs and mice. Increases in miR-21-5p were also identified within the CSF of NHPs, which significantly correlated with pNF-H, implicating miR-21-5p as a potential biomarker of DRG toxicity in conjunction with other molecular analytes. This work highlights the importance of assessing safety concerns related to DRG toxicity when developing RNAi-based AAV vectors for therapeutic purposes., Competing Interests: Declaration of interests M.L.H. is a paid advisor from Charter Preclinical Services.

Summary: Adrenocortical carcinoma (ACC) is a rare malignant tumour arising from the adrenal cortex, with an estimated annual incidence of one to two patients per million. Ectopic ACCs are extremely rare. The majority of ACCs are sporadic; however, ACC has been linked with genetic disease processes, including multiple endocrine neoplasia type-1 (MEN-1). We present the case of a 66-year-old lady referred with newly diagnosed diabetes on a background of primary hyperparathyroidism. Examination revealed Cushingoid features, and hormonal evaluation confirmed ACTH-independent Cushing's syndrome. Morning cortisol after a 1 mg overnight dexamethasone suppression test was 548 nmol/L with an undetectable ACTH <3.0 pg/mL. Dehydroepiandrosterone sulphate was 5.3 μmol/L and androstenedione 3.49 nmol/L, both of which were normal. Testosterone was suppressed at <0.4 nmol/L. Imaging revealed a 6 × 6 × 4.5 cm right-sided presumed adrenal lesion, a pancreatic lesion (2.5 × 1.6 cm), and bilateral pulmonary nodules (0.9 × 0.8 cm, 0.7 × 0.6 cm, 0.3 cm). Right adrenalectomy was performed, and histology was consistent with an extra-adrenal ACC (Weiss score 5/9) within the peri-adrenal adipose tissue. The resected adrenal gland was normal. Lung biopsy confirmed metastatic ACC tissue, and endoscopic ultrasound-guided biopsy of the pancreatic lesion revealed a pancreatic neuroendocrine tumour, which was confirmed biochemically to be an insulinoma. Genetic assessment confirmed MEN-1. This case highlights the importance of screening for MEN-1 in at-risk patients and the need for close clinical follow-up. To our knowledge, this is the first case report of extra-adrenal ACC in MEN-1 syndrome., Learning Points: Adrenal lesions in MEN-1 syndrome have significant malignant potential. Newly diagnosed lesions should be followed closely with short-interval imaging, and a lower threshold for surgical removal is suggested. Primary hyperparathyroidism is often the earliest laboratory or clinical manifestation of MEN-1 syndrome. A detailed medical and family history is vital in order to appropriately identify patients at risk of MEN-1. To our knowledge, this is the first case report of extra-adrenal adrenocortical carcinoma in MEN-1 syndrome.

Background: Alport syndrome is a genetically heterogenous disorder resulting from variants in genes coding for alpha-3/4/5 chains of Collagen IV, which results in defective basement membranes in the kidney, cochlea and eye. The syndrome has different inheritance patterns and historically, was thought of as a disease affecting solely males., Case: A 15-year-old female presented with pedal oedema, hypertension and proteinuria. She underwent a kidney biopsy which showed findings in keeping with focal segmental glomerulosclerosis. Her condition was refractory to steroids. Steroid-resistant nephrotic syndrome genetics were sent, revealing a rare pathogenic variant in the COL4A5 gene., Conclusion: Heterozygous females with X-linked Alport syndrome can develop chronic kidney disease and hearing loss. Clinicians should be mindful when reviewing kidney histology to include Alport syndrome as a differential for female patients. COL4A3-5 genes should be included in all steroid-resistant nephrotic syndrome genetic panels., (© 2024. The Author(s).)

Innovative approaches are needed for managing risk and system change in healthcare. This paper presents a case study of a project that took place over two years, taking a systems approach to managing the risk of healthcare acquired infection in an acute hospital setting, supported by an Access Risk Knowledge Platform which brings together Human Factors Ergonomics, Data Science, Data Governance and AI expertise. Evidence for change including meeting notes and use of the platform were studied. The work on the project focused on first systematically building a rich picture of the current situation from a transdisciplinary perspective. This allowed for understanding risk in context and developing a better capability to support enterprise risk management and accountability. From there a linking of operational and risk data took place which led to mapping of the risk pattern in the hospital.

Background: Campylobacter is the most common food-borne pathogen in the European Union. In 2018, the crude incidence rate in Ireland was 63.6 per 100,000 population. Chicken is considered an important source of infection for humans. In 2015, the Campylobacter Stakeholders' Group (CSG) was established to reduce Campylobacter contamination levels in Irish broiler flocks., Aims: This work aimed to describe the Campylobacter monitoring programme that was established by the CSG, to analyse the results of this testing between 2019 and 2022, and to assess progress., Methods and Results: This paper describes the monitoring programme that was established by the CSG, which harmonized Campylobacter enumeration testing across all Irish broiler processors and allowed comparability of results for trend analysis. An analysis of the 2019-2022 data is presented here and compared to previous studies of Campylobacter levels in Irish broilers. An analysis of the 2019-2022 data showed a significant reduction in levels in both caeca and neck skin when the results from 2022 were compared to those from 2019 to 2020. Campylobacter spp. were detected in 37% of caecal samples from first depopulation (pre-thin) broilers and 30% of neck skin samples in 2022, with just 4% of carcases (in neck skin samples) with ≥1000 colony-forming units per gram detected in 2022. Campylobacter levels detected in Irish broilers, in the present monitoring programme were less than those reported in previous studies in both caecal and carcase samples, although not directly comparable for statistical significance because of differences in study methods., Conclusions: The cooperation between stakeholders and regulators of the Irish broiler chicken industry over the past decade has facilitated a coordinated approach to monitoring of Campylobacter levels in broilers, and implementation of control measures. This has enabled a steady reduction in the levels of Campylobacter in Irish chicken., (© 2024 Wiley‐VCH GmbH.)

Background: Compared to other occupational groups, first responders (FR) experience worse mental health outcomes due to duty-related trauma and occupational stressors. Despite their best efforts, they bring this stress home to friends and family. Consequently, FR and their supporters suffer from increased psychosocial difficulties and experience stigma and other barriers to help-seeking. Prior work offers little opportunity for open dialogue and shared understanding of the repercussions of this occupation for all members of the first responder community. In this qualitative study, we aimed to: (i) explore the lived experience of Irish FR and their family members (FM) related to occupational stressors, and (ii) identify opportunities to engage FM with existing organizational supports available for FR., Methods: Using a community based participatory research (CBPR) approach, we conducted six focus groups involving a total of fourteen participants comprising FR, organizational representatives, and FM. All focus groups were audio recorded, transcribed, and analyzed using reflexive thematic analysis., Findings: FR and FM shared their experiences of both joining and learning to live as members of the FR community in Ireland. Through our analysis, we identified a main theme of 'crossing thresholds', characterizing their transformative learning experiences. This learning experience includes recognizing the consequences of this new role for them as individuals and for their relationships. Participants also shared how they have learned to cope with the consequences of their roles and what they need to better support each other., Conclusions: FM are often unheard, hidden members of the first responder community in Ireland, highlighting an unmet need for FR organizations to acknowledge FM role in supporting FR and to provide them with the appropriate training and resources required. Training for new recruits needs to move beyond the tokenistic involvement of FM and encourage knowledge sharing among experienced and novice members. Cultural change is required to support help-seeking among FR and foster a sense of peer support and community among families., Competing Interests: Declaration of competing interest None declared., (Copyright © 2024 The Authors.

Introduction: Monoallelic variants in the ALG5 gene encoding asparagine-linked glycosylation protein 5 homolog (ALG5) have been recently shown to disrupt polycystin-1 (PC1) maturation and trafficking via underglycosylation, causing an autosomal dominant polycystic kidney disease-like (ADPKD-like) phenotype and interstitial fibrosis. In this report, we present clinical, genetic, histopathologic, and protein structure and functional correlates of a new ALG5 variant, p.R79W, that we identified in 2 distant genetically related Irish families displaying an atypical late-onset ADPKD phenotype combined with tubulointerstitial damage., Methods: Whole exome and targeted sequencing were used for segregation analysis of available relatives. This was followed by immunohistochemistry examinations of kidney biopsies, and targeted (UMOD, MUC1) and untargeted plasma proteome and N-glycomic studies., Results: We identified a monoallelic ALG5 variant [GRCh37 (NM&#95;013338.5): g.37569565G>A, c.235C>T; p.R79W] that cosegregates in 23 individuals, of whom 18 were clinically affected. We detected abnormal localization of ALG5 in the Golgi apparatus of renal tubular cells in patients' kidney specimens. Further, we detected the pathological accumulation of uromodulin, an N-glycosylated glycosylphosphatidylinositol (GPI)-anchored protein, in the endoplasmic reticulum (ER), but not mucin-1, an O- and N-glycosylated protein. Biochemical investigation revealed decreased plasma and urinary uromodulin levels in clinically affected individuals. Proteomic and glycoproteomic profiling revealed the dysregulation of chronic kidney disease (CKD)-associated proteins., Conclusion: ALG5 dysfunction adversely affects maturation and trafficking of N-glycosylated and GPI anchored protein uromodulin, leading to structural and functional changes in the kidney. Our findings confirm ALG5 as a cause of late-onset ADPKD and provide additional insight into the molecular mechanisms of ADPKD- ALG5 ., (© 2024 International Society of Nephrology.

To gain insight into the accuracy of microbial measurements, it is important to evaluate sources of bias related to sample condition, preservative method and bioinformatic analyses. There is increasing evidence that measurement of the total count and concentration of microbes in the gut, or 'absolute abundance', provides a richer source of information than relative abundance and can correct some conclusions drawn from relative abundance data. However, little is known about how preservative choice can affect these measurements. In this study, we investigated how two common preservatives and short-term storage conditions impact relative and absolute microbial measurements. OMNIgene GUT OMR-200 yields lower metagenomic taxonomic variation between different storage temperatures, whereas Zymo DNA/RNA Shield yields lower metatranscriptomic taxonomic variation. Absolute abundance quantification reveals two different causes of variable Bacteroidetes:Firmicutes ratios across preservatives. Based on these results, we recommend OMNIgene GUT OMR-200 preservative for field studies and Zymo DNA/RNA Shield for metatranscriptomics studies, and we strongly encourage absolute quantification for microbial measurements., (© 2023.

Background: SARS-CoV-2 continues to impact human health globally, with airborne transmission being a significant mode of transmission. In addition to tools like vaccination and testing, countermeasures that reduce viral spread in indoor settings are critical. This study aims to assess the efficacy of UV-C light, utilizing the Violett sterilization device, as a countermeasure against airborne transmission of SARS-CoV-2 in the highly susceptible Golden Syrian hamster model., Methods: Two cohorts of naïve hamsters were subjected to airborne transmission from experimentally infected hamsters; one cohort was exposed to air treated with UV-C sterilization, while the other cohort was exposed to untreated air., Results: Treatment of air with UV-C light prevented the airborne transmission of SARS-CoV-2 from the experimentally exposed hamster to naïve hamsters. Notably, this protection was sustained over a multi-day exposure period during peak viral shedding by hamsters., Conclusions: These findings demonstrate the efficacy of the UV-C light to mitigate against airborne SARS-CoV-2 transmission. As variants continue to emerge, UV-C light holds promise as a tool for reducing infections in diverse indoor settings, ranging from healthcare facilities to households. This study reinforces the urgency of implementing innovative methods to reduce airborne disease transmission and safeguard public health against emerging biological threats.

Purpose of Review: The evaluation of a young athlete with an overuse injury to the knee involves a comprehensive approach. There are a number of elements to consider including assessments of skeletal maturity (biologic maturation), workload (training load + competition load), sport specialization status, and biomechanics. The type of injury and treatment, as well as future prognosis, may be influenced by these and other factors., Recent Findings: Calculating the percentage of predicted adult height (PPAH) is a valuable tool in assessing overuse injury patterns and diagnoses in youth athletes. Modifiable and non-modifiable overuse injury risk factors require monitoring from clinicians as young athletes mature and develop over time. Training and rehabilitation programs should be adapted to account for these. In this manuscript, we seek to introduce a novel, comprehensive approach: S.P.O.R.R.T. (Skeletal Maturity, Prior Injury Risk, One Sport Specialization, Rehabilitation, Return to Play, Training Recommendations) (Fig. 1). Overuse, non-traumatic injuries to the knee in youth athletes will be presented in a case-based and evidence-based model to provide a framework for a comprehensive approach to the assessment and treatment of youth athletes with overuse injuries., (© 2023.

The American Association of Colleges of Nursing (AACN) Core Competencies for Professional Nursing Education (2021) include a Population Health domain. Future nurses well-versed in the social determinants of health are poised to be leaders, creating change to improve the lives of vulnerable populations. The Population Health Project (PHP) is an innovative learning experience, immersing student nurses in authentic interactions that impact the communities they partner with. Baccalaureate nursing students, during their Population Health course, work in groups to produce innovative, community-focused PHPs, successfully incorporating the AACN competencies. Students identify issues impacting the wellbeing of their assigned population; these issues become the focus of their PHP. They engage with community stakeholders, including their patients, policy makers, and community partners to develop evidence-based and sustainable projects. PHPs focus on reducing health disparities and address priorities important to communities, including concepts of diversity, inclusion, and equity. Examples of long-term impacts of PHPs include: legislative change - a new law mandating pharmacies provide prescription labels in a language the patient can understand; innovative policies - initiating efforts to create a hospice for unhoused patients; and new service provision programs - teaming with a fire department to co-develop a home-visiting program to reduce non-emergent 911 calls., (Copyright © 2023 Elsevier Inc.

The study of naturally circulating drug metabolites has been a focus of interest, since these metabolites may have different therapeutic and toxicological effects compared to the parent drug. The synthesis of metabolites outside of the human body is vital in order to conduct studies into the pharmacological activities of drugs and bioactive compounds. Current synthesis methods require significant purification and separation efforts or do not provide sufficient quantities for use in pharmacology experiments. Thus, there is a need for simple methods yielding high conversions whilst bypassing the requirement for a separation. Here we have developed and optimised flow chemistry methods in glass microfluidic reactors utilising surface-immobilised enzymes for sulfonation (SULT1a1) and glucuronidation (UGT1a1). Conversion occurs in flow, the precursor and co-factor are pumped through the device, react with the immobilised enzymes and the product is then simply collected at the outlet with no separation from a complex biological matrix required. Conversion only occurred when both the correct co-factor and enzyme were present within the microfluidic system. Yields of 0.97 ± 0.26 μg were obtained from the conversion of resorufin into resorufin sulfate over 2 h with the SULT1a1 enzyme and 0.47 μg of resorufin glucuronide over 4 h for UGT1a1. This was demonstrated to be significantly more than static test tube reactions at 0.22 μg (SULT1a1) and 0.19 μg (UGT1a1) over 4 h. With scaling out and parallelising, useable quantities of hundreds of micrograms for use in pharmacology studies can be synthesised simply., Competing Interests: There are no conflicts to declare., (This journal is © The Royal Society of Chemistry.)
