    Abstract Time is the crucial ingredient in history, and yet historians rarely talk about time as such. These essays offer new insight into the development of modern conceptions of time, from the Christian dating system (BC/AD or BCE/CE) to the idea of "modernity" as a new epoch in human history. Are the Gregorian calendar, world standard time, and modernity itself simply impositions of Western superiority? How did the idea of stages of history culminating in the modern period arise? Is time really ac..

    Abstract Aim: This scoping review aimed to identify and describe evidence regarding the experiences of nurses when they become patients or when nurses care for other health professional-patients in a hospital setting.
    Design: A scoping review of internationally published peer-reviewed literature.
    Data sources: A systematic search of peer-reviewed evidence was conducted in electronic databases: CINAHL, Medline, Scopus, ProQuest and PsycINFO.
    Methods: Critical appraisal, data extraction and summary were performed independently by two reviewers according to the scoping review framework developed by Arksey and O'Malley. Twenty-three publications from 1999 to 2021 were included in this scoping review.
    Results: This scoping review highlighted seven key themes as follows: (1) the challenges for nurse-patients and caregivers; (2) role ambiguity when a nurse becomes a patient; (3) the need for personalized care to consider the nurse's professional experience; (4) the requirement to not make assumptions about the registered nurse's knowledge; (5) loss of control and vulnerabilities of being a patient; (6) the impact of the valuable small things that carers did and (7) the impact of being a nurse-patient on their future practice.
    Conclusion: While some aspects of nurse-patients' experiences are common to non-healthcare professional-patients, this review highlights there are unique challenges when nurses become patients themselves. Future research should focus on exploring nurses' experience of caring for other healthcare professional-patients and strive to better understand how to meet nurses' unique needs when they become patients themselves.
    Impact: This review advances knowledge on an under-explored topic, highlighting the unique and challenging experience when nurses become patients in a hospital setting. Nurses should be aware of the unique needs of nurse-patients to provide person-centred quality care.
    Patient or public contribution: There was no direct patient or public contribution to this scoping review, although one of the authors did have experience as a nurse-patient in the last 3 years.

    Abstract As radiation therapy is needed by approximately 50% of patients with cancer there needs to be ongoing research to ensure that radiation therapy targets the tumour effectively and minimises potential side effects. Major advances in radiation therapy, due to improvements in engineering and computing, have made it more precise, reducing side effects and improving cancer control. Patients need to be informed of its risks, both short and long term, to enable them to be active participants in their cancer treatment path.

    Abstract The SABER instrument on the TIMED satellite has produced an amazing record of temperature, minor constituents, and energetics in Earth’s mesosphere and lower thermosphere (MLT). The data record is now 21.5 years in length and the SABER instrument continues to operate with no apparent degradation in measurement quality over that time. In this paper we will examine observed long-term changes in the MLT, focusing on temperature and energetics. We will also discuss the needs and requirements for future observing systems to generate Geospace Data Records. These records are defined as a time series of measurements of sufficient length, consistency, and continuity to determine geospace variability and change. Long term geospace change is now recognized as a factor in the growing space economy due to the proliferation of space debris. Future observations of the MLT and geospace will need to be designed with much more attention to measurement accuracy and stability to determine the magnitude and rate of change more clearly and reliably. Economic and space policy decisions related to risk and mitigation of long-duration orbital debris will require clear and unequivocal measures of trends in geospace density and temperatures.

    Abstract Importance: No evidence-based treatment protocol currently exists for infants with vocal cord paresis (VCP).
    Objective: To assess the impact of feeding position on feeding success among infants with unilateral VCP and examine other variables that may be associated with feeding success.
    Design: Retrospective descriptive study.
    Setting: Midwestern pediatric hospital serving rural and urban populations.
    Participants: Sixty-seven infants age <1 yr diagnosed with unilateral VCP by otolaryngologist while inpatient.
    Outcomes and measures: Bottle or breastfeeding without the use of a thickening agent at discharge and without readmission for feeding difficulties ≤3 mo of discharge was considered feeding success.
    Results: Chart review was completed for 67 infants with unilateral VCP. Infants fed in side lying were more likely to feed without use of a thickened liquid than infants fed in upright (70% vs. 17%; p = .01). Infants who had patent ductus arteriosus (PDA) ligation and infants who were premature were more likely to need thickener and to be readmitted for feeding difficulties.
    Conclusions and relevance: Further study is required to investigate the use of side-lying position versus upright position for feeding infants with VCP. Using the side-lying position allowed more infants to feed without thickener agents, and patient characteristics, including history of PDA ligation and prematurity, correlated with the need for thickened liquids and readmission. Consensus on the safety and efficacy of thickening breast milk is limited, so this information may allow more infants to breastfeed or drink expressed breast milk safely by bottle. It also provides medical providers information that can possibly prevent readmissions. What This Article Adds: The results of this study can inform occupational therapy feeding practice through use of the side-lying position, as well as being aware of patient characteristics that are correlated with increased feeding difficulties.

    Abstract The UK food system affects social, economic and natural environments and features escalating risk of food insecurity. Yet it should provide access to safe, nutritious, affordable food for all citizens. Disadvantaged UK communities [individuals and families at risk of food and housing insecurity, often culturally diverse] have often been conceptualised in terms of individual behaviour which may lead to findings and conclusions based on the need for individual change. Such communities face public health challenges and are often treated as powerless recipients of dietary and health initiatives or as 'choiceless' consumers within food supply chains. As transforming the UK food system has become a national priority, it is important a diverse range of evidence is used to support understanding of the diets of disadvantaged communities to inform food systems transformation research.A scoping review of UK peer reviewed qualitative literature published in MEDLINE, CINAHL Plus with Full Text, EMBASE, PsycINFO and Web of Science between January 2010 and May 2021 in English. Eligibility criteria were applied, a data extraction table summarised data from included studies, and synthesis using social practice theory was undertaken.Forty-five qualitative studies were reviewed, which included the views of 2,434 community members aged between 5 and 83. Studies used different measures to define disadvantage. Synthesis using social practice theory identified themes of food and dietary practices shaped by interactions between 'material factors' (e.g. transport, housing and money), 'meanings' (e.g. autonomy and independence), and 'competencies' (e.g. strategies to maximise food intake). These concepts are analysed and critiqued in the context of the wider literature to inform food systems transformation research.This review suggests to date, qualitative research into diets of UK disadvantaged communities provides diverse findings that mainly conceptualise disadvantage at an individual level. Whilst several studies provide excellent characterisations of individual experience, links to 'macro' processes such as supply chains are largely missing. Recommendations are made for future research to embrace transdisciplinary perspectives and utilise new tools (e.g., creative methods and good practice guides), and theories (e.g., assemblage) to better facilitate food systems transformation for disadvantaged communities.
