Representation of Racial Diversity on US Plastic Surgery Websites: A Cross-sectional Study: Racial Diversity on Plastic Surgery Websites.

The racial diversity portrayed in plastic and reconstructive surgery (PRS) media is an important indicator of an inclusive environment for potential patients. To evaluate the degree to which PRS websites demonstrate inclusivity, we assessed the racial composition of both patients and plastic surgeons depicted on the most visited academic and private PRS websites to determine the extent to which racial diversity is represented. A cross-sectional study was conducted in September 2023. The 10 most visited websites in each state were identified. Sociodemographic characteristics including race and sex of patients and plastic surgeons, as well as the type of practice, were collected. Race was classified according to individuals' Fitzpatrick Phototypes into White and non-White. Differences in patient and surgeon representation were compared to the 2020 US Census and the 2020 ASPS demographics using χ2 tests. Subgroup analyses were conducted to identify differences by type of practice and region. We analyzed a total of 2,752 patients from 462 websites belonging to 930 plastic surgeons. PRS websites were predominantly from private practices (93%). Regarding patient representation, 92.6% were female, 7.4% were male, 87.6% were White, and 12.4% were non-White. The surgeon population on the studied webpages was 75.1% male, 92.1% White, and 7.8% non-White. Statistically significant differences were found in the patient population when compared to the 2020 national (P < 0.001) and regional (P < 0.001) US Census demographics and the 2020 ASPS Statistics Report (P < 0.001). Although minority representation was significantly higher on academic websites compared to private practice (22.9% vs. 12.1%; P = 0.007), both were significantly lower than the percentage of minority patients undergoing PRS. This study illuminates racial disparities in the representation of racial groups among patients and plastic surgeons in the most frequented plastic surgery websites. Moreover, it underscores the imperative to bolster racial diversity within the digital content of both private and academic PRS websites. Greater racial representation can foster a more inclusive perception of the plastic surgery field, which may potentially broaden access to care and enrich the professional landscape.

Patient-reported outcomes in neuro-oncology.

To provide up-to-date evidence on patient-reported outcomes (PROs) in neuro-oncology, with a focus on the core constructs of health-related quality of life (HRQoL) and the use of PROs in clinical trials and clinical practice.[Supplemental Digital Content: Video Abstract PROs in Neuro-Oncology.mov]. PROs are gaining importance in brain tumor research and medical care. For patients with a brain tumor, core PRO constructs are pain, difficulty communicating, perceived cognition, seizures, symptomatic adverse events, physical functioning and role and social functioning, which are assessed through patient-reported outcome measures (PROMs). Initiatives have been taken to improve the reliability and robustness of PRO data, including standardization of items included in clinical trial protocols (the SPIRIT-PRO extension) and formulation of PRO priority objectives for use in clinical trials (the SISAQOL-Innovative Medicines Initiative). In brain tumor patients with cognitive impairment, caregiver-reported outcomes may complement or replace PROs to increase accuracy. The next key challenge will be to widely implement PROs and apply PRO data in clinical practice to benefit patients with brain tumors. PROs are clinically relevant endpoints providing information only known by the patient. Standardization of the use of PROs in clinical trials and wide implementation in clinical practice is needed to improve HRQoL of brain tumor patients.

Sol–gel derived red fluorescent nanocomposites of copper nanoclusters conjugated silica for visualizing latent fingerprints

Phosphors with red emission have attracted increasing interests due to their high contrast and low interferences of fluorescence background which play a vital role in visualizing latent fingerprints (LFPs) in forensic science. In this work, red-emissive fluorescent nanocomposites of copper nanoclusters conjugated silica (CuNCs/silica) are prepared simply by sol-gel method in one pot for visualizing the LFPs through powder-dusting method. The CuNCs/silica exhibits the red fluorescence with an emission wavelength of 628 nm under the excitation of 292 nm and can have sufficient affinity with the LFPs ridges. The CuNCs/silica with the photoluminescence properties can precisely visualize and capture the clear patterns and the well-defined details of the LFPs ridges on the non-porous and semi-porous surfaces of different substrates (including copper foil, compact disc, tiles, stainless steel, aluminum foil, glass slide, Hong Kong currency, colored plastic packing, colored paper and leather) even with fluorescent background. The ridge details of the aged LFPs can also be clearly identified. These suggest the great potential of the CuNCs/silica as phosphors for visualizing the LFPs in criminal investigations.

Neural Mechanisms Associated With Postural Control in Collegiate Soccer and Non-Soccer Athletes.

Sport-specific training may improve postural control, while repetitive head acceleration events (RHAEs) may compromise it. Understanding the neural mechanisms underlying postural control may contextualize changes due to training and RHAE. The goal of this study was to determine whether postural sway during the Balance Error Scoring System (BESS) is related to white matter organization (WMO) in collegiate athletes. Collegiate soccer ( N =33) and non-soccer athletes ( N =44) completed BESS and diffusion tensor imaging. Postural sway during each BESS stance, fractional anisotropy (FA), and mean diffusivity (MD) were extracted for each participant. Partial least squares analyses determined group differences in postural sway and WMO and the relationship between postural sway and WMO in soccer and non-soccer athletes separately. Soccer athletes displayed better performance during BESS 6, with lower FA and higher MD in the medial lemniscus (ML) and inferior cerebellar peduncle (ICP), compared to non-soccer athletes. In soccer athletes, lower sway during BESS 2, 5, and 6 was associated with higher FA and lower MD in the corticospinal tract, ML, and ICP. In non-soccer athletes, lower sway during BESS 2 and 4 was associated with higher FA and lower MD in the ML and ICP. BESS 1 was associated with higher FA, and BESS 3 was associated with lower MD in the same tracts in non-soccer athletes. Soccer and non-soccer athletes showed unique relationships between sway and WMO, suggesting that sport-specific exposures are partly responsible for changes in neurological structure and accompanying postural control performance and should be considered when evaluating postural control after injury.Video Abstract available for more insights from the authors (see the Video, Supplemental Digital Content, available at: http://links.lww.com/JNPT/A472 ).

Advanced Servo Control and AI Integration in 3-DoF Platforms for Enhanced Simulation Interactivity

This paper proposes a new approach to enhance the realism and interactivity of shooting simulation systems by integrating a three-degree–of–freedom (3-DoF) platform with sensory and interactive elements, as well as digital content. The system employs visual effects computers and servo controls, utilizing network packet messages for communication based on different scene definitions. When the control handle sends commands, the visual effects computer transmits control parameters to the image generator. Additionally, AI-controlled aircrafts act as enemy planes, autonomously determining flight paths, tracking targets, and engaging in combat, thereby enhancing realism in interactive mechanisms. An iterative learning control (ILC) is designed to provide the platform with good dynamic response, load capacity, and tracking ability when operated by a manual control handle. The core control uses a TMS320F28377D digital signal processor from Texas Instruments, integrated with visual effects computers for three-axis control, controller computation, finite state machines, and network communication operations. Experimental results demonstrate the feasibility and effectiveness of the developed three-axis shooting platform, achieving immersion and coordination with AI enemy aircrafts.

Navigating Democratic Parenting Patterns in Parenting in the Digital Era

The rapid advancement of technology and access to information in the digital age has greatly impacted children, known as the digital native generation. While technology offers easy access to information and educational tools, it also presents risks such as internet addiction and exposure to harmful content. The family, especially parents, plays a crucial role in shaping children's character. Parents need to teach, guide, and protect children from the negative impacts of technology. This article delves into the concept of democratic parenting, which is considered effective in addressing these challenges. In this approach, there is an emphasis on two-way communication, allowing both parents and children to express their opinions. It focuses on setting realistic boundaries, balanced supervision, and responsible development of digital skills. This parenting style helps children learn to manage their screen time and develop healthy digital habits. Additionally, children are taught to think critically, respect diverse opinions, and become independent. Parents should familiarize themselves with their children's technology, set time limits for using digital devices, choose safe and educational content, and actively engage in their children's digital activities. With the right guidance, children can utilize technology for positive self-development, tackle technological challenges, and grow into responsible, critical, and adaptable individuals.

Fatigue Is Associated With Perceived Effort and 2-Dimensional Reach Performance After Stroke.

Poststroke fatigue (PSF) is prevalent and often manifests as high perceived effort during activities. Little is known about how PSF influences goal-directed reaching after stroke. The purpose of this study was 2-fold (1) to evaluate how perceived effort changed when individuals with stroke performed a reaching task with various demands and (2) to determine whether PSF was associated with perceived effort during reaching and reach performance. Thirty-six individuals with chronic stroke performed 2-dimensional reach actions under varied conditions with the more and less affected arms. Perceived effort during reaching was assessed using rating of perceived exertion (RPE) and Paas Mental Effort Rating Scale (MERS). Derived reach kinematics were used to quantify reach performance. The Fatigue Severity Scale (FSS) was administered to assess fatigue severity. Perceived effort was higher when participants reached with the more affected arm, reached toward far and small targets, and performed memory-guided reaching. Both RPE and MERS significantly correlated with the FSS score (r =0.50 and 0.35, respectively, P <0.05). Further, FSS correlated with movement time during the more affected arm reaching (ρ=0.40, p <0.05) and reach performance discrepancy between the fast and self-selected speed conditions when participants performed with the less affected arm (ρ=0.36, P <0.05). Exploratory analysis revealed that the relationship between fatigue and reach control appeared to be modulated by task demand. PSF is associated with perceived effort during reaching and reach performance after stroke. These relationships might offer insights into arm performance in the real world after stroke. for more insights from the authors Supplemental Digital Content available at http://links.lww.com/JNPT/A476.
