    Abstract Characterizing patterns of genetic connectivity in marine species is of critical importance given the anthropogenic pressures placed on the marine environment. For sessile species, population connectivity can be shaped by many processes, such as pelagic larval duration, oceanographic boundaries and currents. This study combines restriction-site associated DNA sequencing (RADseq) and passive particle dispersal modelling to delineate patterns of population connectivity in the pink sea fan,

    Abstract Background: Existing instruments often are inappropriate to measure the effects of post-exertional malaise (PEM) and post-exertional symptom exacerbation (PESE) on activities of daily living (ADLs). A validated questionnaire to measure self-reported ability with ADLs would advance research and clinical practice in conditions like myalgic encephalomyelitis and Long Covid.
    Objective: Determine the measurement properties of the PEM/PESE Activity Questionnaire (PAQ).
    Methods: The PAQ is adapted from the Patient Specific Functional Scale. Respondents rated three self-selected ADLs on two 0-100 scales, including current performance compared to (1) a 'good day' and (2) before illness. Respondents provided a Burden of Functioning rating on a 0-100 scale, anchored at 0 being the activity took "No time, effort, and resources at all" and 10 being "All of my time, effort, and resources." Respondents took the PAQ twice, completing a demographic questionnaire after the first PAQ and before the second PAQ. Descriptive statistics and intraclass correlation coefficients were calculated for each scale to assess test-retest reliability. Minimum detectable change outside the 95% confidence interval (MDC95) was calculated. Ceiling and floor effects were determined when the MDC95 for average and function scores crossed 0 and 100, respectively.
    Results: n = 981 responses were recorded, including n = 675 complete surveys. Test-retest reliability was generally fair to excellent, depending on function and scale. MDC95 values generally indicated scale responsiveness. Ceiling and floor effects were noted infrequently for specific functions.
    Conclusion: The PAQ is valid, reliable, and sensitive. Additional research may explore measurement properties involving functions that were infrequently selected in this sample.

    Abstract There are more incidents of violence in summer and on hot days, a trend likely to be exacerbated by climate change. Urban areas experience additional temperature modulation due to the urban form, however, to date, no studies have considered the effect of the urban heat island (UHI) or green space with respect to the temperature-violence relationship. This study modelled the relationship between the number of daily violent crime incidents that occurred inside or outside between July 2013 and June 2018, and the average surface UHI or percentage greencover (including grasses, shrubs and trees) within each local government area in Greater Sydney, Australia. Panelised negative binomial time series regression models indicated that the violent crime rate was associated with higher surface UHI for crimes committed outside (p = 0.006) but not inside (p = 0.072). Greater percentage of all vegetation was associated with significantly lower rates of violent crime committed outside (p = 0.011) but was not associated with violent crimes committed inside (p = 0.430). More socio-economic disadvantage was associated with higher rates of violent crime committed inside (p = 0.002) but not outside (p = 0.145). Greater temperature was non-linearly associated with higher rates of violent crime committed both inside and outside (p < 0.001). The findings of this study are important because both violence and heat exposure are critical health issues and will be stressed by urbanisation and climate change. The expansion of green space and/or reduction in UHI may mitigate these effects.

    Abstract Communities may often lack the resources to deliver intensive programs to assist teen mothers, and many eligible adolescents may decline participation in lengthy interventions. Therefore, alternative approaches involving less resource and time may be needed. Behavioral economics (BE) can inform the development of such novel interventions. BE often feature low-intensity approaches designed to "nudge" people to help them reach their long-term goals. Nudges can include giving reminders, making the desired behavior more convenient, and optimizing the verbal presentation of recommended options. Three hundred thirty-one American adolescents (ages 14 to 19) who were 22 to 35 weeks pregnant were enrolled in the present trial. One hundred sixty-six participants were randomly assigned to the intervention condition featuring a three-month BE intervention delivered by a registered nurse and social worker. The remaining 165 youths were assigned usual care. Surveys were completed at baseline, 3 months, 12 months, and 18 months. Data collection occurred from 2017 to 2021. Qualitative feedback indicated that the BE intervention was well-received by adolescents. However, there were no significant differences between the intervention and control groups at any time point regarding repeat pregnancy, contraceptive usage, financial literacy, school completion, job attainment, HPV vaccinations, nicotine usage, perception of having a medical home, urgent care/ED usage, and nutritional intake (all p > .05). Our findings suggest that a BE-based intervention may not be sufficient to facilitate change for teen mothers. Future programs should consider lasting longer, featuring a higher dose, and/or incorporating systems-level changes. This trial was prospectively registered (NCT03194672 clinicaltrials.gov).

    Abstract Physical activity (PA) may minimize long-term and late effects experienced by cancer survivors. However, the efficacy of PA interventions in increasing PA engagement among adolescent and young adult (AYA) cancer survivors diagnosed between 15 and 39 is not well understood. This systematic review aimed to examine the effects of moderate- to high-intensity or strength training PA interventions on PA engagement in AYA cancer survivors. Secondary aims included describing intervention components unique to efficacious interventions, identifying symptom management in PA interventions, and evaluating intervention effects on quality of life (QoL), and long-term or late effects of cancer. We searched PubMed, CINAHL, PsycINFO, SportDiscus, Cochrane Library, and Scopus databases from inception to August 2022 and identified 12 articles, including 8 randomized controlled trials and 4 quasi-experimental studies. The effect of PA interventions on PA engagement was mixed, with four studies reporting increases in PA engagement ranging from 18.4 to 113.8 min/week postintervention. There was great diversity in PA intervention components. Motivational interviewing, supervised and unsupervised PA sessions together, moderate-intensity PA only, and mindful meditation were components unique to efficacious interventions. No intervention incorporated symptom management components. Studies provided some evidence of PA interventions on potential long-term effects of cancer, with positive impact on fatigue, and some evidence of improved anxiety, sleep, and QoL. Given limited research with AYA cancer survivors, additional research is needed to identify effective intervention components, integrate symptom management strategies into PA interventions, and track effects of PA interventions on late and long-term effects of cancer in this population.

    Abstract Unexpected insights and practical advances in cardiovascular disease (CVD) are being discovered by rapidly advancing developments in supercomputers and machine learning (ML) software algorithms. These have been accelerated during the COVID-19 pandemic, and the resulting CVD translational implications of ML are steering new measures of prevention and treatment, new tools for objective clinical diagnosis, and even opportunities for rethinking basic foundations of CVD nosology. As the usual cardiovascular specialist may not be familiar with these tools, the editor has invited this brief overview.

    Abstract Cellular metabolism has been closely linked to activation state in cells of the immune system, and the oxygen consumption rate (OCR) in particular serves as a valuable metric for assessing metabolic activity. Several oxygen sensing assays have been reported for cells in standard culture conditions. However, none have provided a spatially resolved, optical measurement of local oxygen consumption in intact tissue samples, making it challenging to understand regional dynamics of consumption. Therefore, here we established a system to monitor the rates of oxygen consumption in

    Abstract We present a spatial testbed of simulated boundary data based on a set of very high-resolution census-based areal units surrounding Guadalajara, Mexico. From these input areal units, we simulated 10 levels of spatial resolutions, ranging from levels with 5,515-52,388 units and 100 simulated zonal configurations for each level - totalling 1,000 simulated sets of areal units. These data facilitate interrogating various realizations of the data and the effects of the spatial coarseness and zonal configurations, the Modifiable Areal Unit Problem (MAUP), on applications such as model training, model prediction, disaggregation, and aggregation processes. Further, these data can facilitate the production of spatially explicit, non-parametric estimates of confidence intervals via bootstrapping. We provide a pre-processed version of these 1,000 simulated sets of areal units, meta- and summary data to assist in their use, and a code notebook with the means to alter and/or reproduce these data.
