    Abstract Shining On! Happy first 10 years, ChemistryOpen! From little more than a new trend in chemistry publishing, the Open Access model has grown into a major theme in publishing in the last decade. The idea of Open Science has become instrumental for the collaboration among scientists, not only during the pandemic, and ChemistryOpen is ready to start its next decade in a much more open world!

    Abstract One of the core features of hoarding is a significant resistance to discarding objects, which is fueled by dysfunctional beliefs and unwarranted negative emotions that hoarders tend to feel when disposing of their possessions. To our knowledge, longitudinal studies investigating the psychological effects that people who hoard experience after separating from their valuable possessions have yet to be conducted. Our study's principal aim was to explore psychological processes that individuals with high hoarding features (n = 53; 49.1%) and individuals with low hoarding features (n = 55; 50.9%) experienced when they had to separate from a valuable possession. To do this, we evaluated participants' thoughts and feelings at several time points after they had to leave a valuable object at the University laboratory (evaluations were specifically conducted at baseline, during the week, and at the end of the week). To investigate hoarding and anxiety, as well as depressive, obsessive-compulsive, and emotional processes-related features, a mixed-method approach was employed involving self-report questionnaires, ad hoc surveys, and a daily self-monitoring schedule. Our findings showed that compared to participants with low hoarding features, participants with high hoarding traits: 1) scored higher for anxiety sensitivity, distress tolerance, and emotional dysregulation; 2) reported having more negative emotions when leaving their object; 3) had more intrusive object-related beliefs; and 4) experienced a higher frequency of negative emotions as well as a higher level of distress during the week. Both groups experienced more negative emotions in the first part of the week, which decreased as the time at which participants could receive their object back drew closer. Finally, dysfunctional beliefs about leaving a personal object (Saving Cognitions Inventory), sensitivity to anxiety (Anxiety Sensitivity Index-3), and distress tolerance (Distress Tolerance Scale) contributed to the level of discomfort that participants with higher hoarding scores reported when they had to leave their possession. These results highlight the relevance of emotional processes in the hoarding disorder framework as well as underscore the importance of assessing and treating them in clinical settings.

    Abstract Background: We conducted a retrospective epidemiological study about the prevalence of stage 5 chronic kidney disease (CKD) in a high-income district, comparing some demographic characteristics and outcomes of those patients who had nephrological consultations and those who had not.
    Results: In a district of 400,000 adult subjects in 2020, 925 patients had an estimated glomerular filtration rate (eGFR) under 15 mL/min and CKD. In the same period, 747 (80.4%) patients were assessed by nephrologists, while 178 (19.6%) were not. Age (88 vs. 75,
    Conclusions: About 20% of ESKD patients did not receive a nephrologist consultation. Older people and women were more likely not to be referred to nephrology clinics. Unfollowed patients with stage 5 CKD had a significantly higher death rate.

    Abstract Despite the existence of a vast scientific literature on the subject of hydraulic energy recovery from water pipelines by means of micro- and pico-hydropower using pumps as turbines (PAT), such technology has found a very limited application thus far in practice. In fact, the selection of a pump as turbine for a specific site is a matter of nontrivial trade-offs between a variety of technical and economic parameters and this aspect has not been sufficiently captured and integrated into a reliable, proven, and practical selection methodology available to designers and practitioners. Hence, a multi-objective PAT selection software was developed and utilized to design a 3 kW energy recovery installation at a rural Irish water network. The performance of the scheme was monitored over 13 consecutive months, resulting in the generation of nearly 16,000 kWh of electricity and validating the output from the PAT selection software.

    Abstract In the last few decades, the aging of the general population has significantly increased the number of elderly patients with end-stage kidney disease (ESKD) who require renal replacement therapy. ESKD elders are often frail and highly comorbid with social issues and seem to not benefit from dialysis in terms of survival and quality of life. Conservative management (CM) could represent a valid treatment option, allowing them to live for months to years with a modest impact on their habits. Despite these possible advantages, CM remains underused due to the myth of dialysis as the only effective treatment option for all ESKD patients regardless of its impact on quality of life and survival. Both CM and dialysis remain valid alternatives in the management of ESKD. However, assessing comorbidities, disabilities, and social context should drive the choice of the best possible treatment for ESKD, while in elderly patients with short life expectancies, referring them to palliative care seems the most reasonable choice.

    Abstract Aims: Prospective studies on the mental health of university students highlighted a major concern. Specifically, young adults in academia are affected by markedly worse mental health status than their peers or adults in other vocations. This situation predisposes to exacerbated disability-adjusted life-years.
    Methods: We enroled 1,388 students at the baseline, 557 of whom completed follow-up after 6 months, incorporating their demographic information and self-report questionnaires on depressive, anxiety and obsessive-compulsive symptoms. We applied multiple regression modelling to determine associations - at baseline - between demographic factors and self-reported mental health measures and supervised machine learning algorithms to predict the risk of poorer mental health at follow-up, by leveraging the demographic and clinical information collected at baseline.
    Results: Approximately one out of five students reported severe depressive symptoms and/or suicidal ideation. An association of economic worry with depression was evidenced both at baseline (when high-frequency worry odds ratio = 3.11 [1.88-5.15]) and during follow-up. The random forest algorithm exhibited high accuracy in predicting the students who maintained well-being (balanced accuracy = 0.85) or absence of suicidal ideation but low accuracy for those whose symptoms worsened (balanced accuracy = 0.49). The most important features used for prediction were the cognitive and somatic symptoms of depression. However, while the negative predictive value of worsened symptoms after 6 months of enrolment was 0.89, the positive predictive value is basically null.
    Conclusions: Students' severe mental health problems reached worrying levels, and demographic factors were poor predictors of mental health outcomes. Further research including people with lived experience will be crucial to better assess students' mental health needs and improve the predictive outcome for those most at risk of worsening symptoms.
