Abstract:
Objective: Group-based intervention formats are common in rehabilitation, but no tool for objectively measuring clinical competencies in group facilitation currently exists. We aimed to develop a psychometrically sound group facilitation competency checklist for use in clinical, training, and research settings. Method: The Delphi method of expert consensus was used to establish checklist items that clearly describe competencies considered important for effective group facilitation. Inter-rater reliability was determined with two experienced psychologists who used the checklist to rate the competencies of psychology trainees facilitating a memory skills group. Results: After two Delphi rounds, consensus was reached on 17 items, defined as at least 80% agreement among the panel of 15 experts. The four checklist item categories were (a) Facilitating focused group discussion, (b) Communication skills, (c) Interpersonal style, and (d) Session structure. One item was removed after piloting. Inter-rater reliability was excellent (88% agreement) using a simple coding method (competent/incompetent). When using a detailed coding method that discriminated between ‘done adequately’ and ‘done well’, inter-rater reliability was weaker (κ = 0.481, 55% agreement); however, it improved to almost perfect after the raters calibrated their standards. Conclusion: The new group facilitation competency checklist is fit for purpose for measuring clinical competencies in delivering group-based rehabilitation interventions and can be used in the training of effective group facilitators.

Abstract:
The purpose of the study was to perform an analysis of the results of studies devoted to the study of the effectiveness of proprioceptive neuromuscular facilitation in patients with adhesive capsulitis of the shoulder joint. Materials and methods. This work is the result of an analysis of studies devoted to the study of the effect of proprioceptive neuromuscular facilitation as monotherapy and as a part of a complex physical therapy or rehabilitation program on the range of motion in the shoulder joint, pain on the visual analog scale, and the shoulder pain and disability index. During the search in scientific databases, the data of 11 studies, which are devoted to the specified issues, were selected. Results and discussion. Studies examining the immediate effects of interventions have found both benefits and no benefits on amplitude measures in groups of patients who received proprioceptive neuromuscular facilitation in addition to physical therapy or as a component of adjunctive therapy. Thus, it is not possible to draw unequivocal conclusions in the question of advantages regarding the immediate effect. Analysis of the effectiveness of programs and courses of treatment for adhesive capsulitis of the shoulder joint established that in the vast majority of studies, the results in the proprioceptive neuromuscular facilitation groups were better at the end of the treatment (3-4 weeks). At the same time, in most studies, scientists noted a significant improvement in pain, amplitude, and functioning indicators in control groups, that is, without the use of proprioceptive neuromuscular facilitation. All of the reviewed papers that analyzed the effectiveness of adding only proprioceptive neuromuscular facilitation to physical therapy programs or adding proprioceptive neuromuscular facilitation as a part of adjunctive therapy found advantages in such groups in terms of pain improvement on a visual analog scale or a pain subscale in questionnaires. Only one such study did not indicate a benefit of proprioceptive neuromuscular facilitation in external rotation. In addition, in most cases, proprioceptive neuromuscular facilitation or combined therapy with proprioceptive neuromuscular facilitation had a better effect on the amplitude of abduction and flexion at the shoulder joint. Conclusion. The developed Ukrainian versions of the questionnaires can be used to assess the level of therapeutic alliance and patient satisfaction in the field of physical therapy and occupational therapy

Abstract:
This study explored ways in which a music therapy student could modify and improve her own clinical practice in order to facilitate client contribution in group music therapy in an acute adolescent inpatient unit. Through cycles of observation, evaluation, planning, and action, the music therapy student was able to examine her facilitation techniques in detail and modified them accordingly. There were six fortnightly cycles and in each cycle, the research journal, research notes, and video-recording were systematically reviewed by the music therapy student herself, and themes were drawn out to contribute to the planning of the next cycle. The results suggested that while direct questions predominated at the start of study, the music therapy student was able to adopt a variety of other techniques by the end of the research period, including self-disclosure, appropriate eye contact, and the shifting of responsibility. The music therapy student also found that her own anxiety level, which was often caused by periods of silence in music groups, also had an important impact on her ability to facilitate. The discussion addressed other factors that are believed to have contributed to the student?s ability to facilitate in group music therapy.

Abstract:
This thesis investigated the supervisory process between occupational therapy students and practice educators during practice placements. It explored the strategies and techniques used by both students and practitioners to facilitate students' learning and to develop their ability to reflect on practice. Few studies have investigated this topic specifically in relation to occupational therapy students, revealing a gap in relation to the reality of what actually occurs during supervision sessions. The researcher argued that observation of supervision sessions should provide accurate, detailed accounts of the content, structure and format of the sessions with clear analysis of the techniques/strategies being adopted. A case study approach was used to enable the researcher to gain a unique insight into the real life supervisory relationships between occupational therapy students and their practice educators, involving a number of methods of data collection: focus groups, questionnaires, observations and audio- recordings of 20 supervision sessions. The major themes to emerge from the focus groups and questionnaires showed the importance of effective interpersonal skills in fostering a partnership approach that encouraged students to take responsibility for their own learning. Interpretive analysis of the audio-recordings identified various techniques used by practice educators such as probing questions, sharing accounts of their own reflections, and giving constructive feedback. However, the findings also revealed areas for improvement. Although each practice educator had their own style of supervision and all endeavoured to assist their student with their professional and personal development, they did so with varying degrees of effectiveness. Examples of good practice were demonstrated in relation to the effective supervision of students on placement, but it was shown that the preparation of students and practice educators could be enhanced and further strengthened to ensure that both parties fully appreciate the purpose and benefits of effective supervision and their roles within that process.

Abstract:
This research explores the overlap between community-based art therapy and school-based art therapy through the surveyed experiences of art therapists working in school settings, and informed by community-based art therapy components and characteristics identified in A Model for Art Therapists in Community Practice by Dylan Ottemiller and Yasmine Awais. A literature review focused on five components and characteristics identified within the community-based art therapy literature, and informed the review of school-based art therapy literature based on the community-based art therapy themes. A qualitative survey approach was utilized through the distribution and data analysis of an electronic survey and findings were enriched by the researcher’s participation in the development and implementation of a brief community-based art therapy program providing an art therapy experience to families receiving services at a domestic violence intervention center. Analysis of the data revealed three major themes and specific areas where school-based practice is facilitating community-based art therapy (CBAT) components and characteristics. The findings discuss which CBAT components and characteristics are and are not being facilitated within school-based practice, and in conclusion the research offers ways school-based art therapy programs may offer opportunities for community-based practice.

Developing cultural awareness and effectiveness is critical to meaningful and successful occupational therapy practice and of concern to occupational therapists worldwide (World Federation of Occupational Therapists, 2010). Occupational therapy graduates, not fully representative of the demographics of the populations they will meet clinically, must be able to work effectively with individuals and systems and acquire the ability to understand the interconnectedness of culture and its influence on socioeconomics, health, wellness, specific diagnostic conditions and health disparities (Black & Wells, 2007). This doctoral project argues that the term cultural effectiveness communicates a more collaborative process and realistic outcome than the term cultural competence. Based on a review of theories and effective approaches for teaching and learning about cultural effectiveness this doctoral project includes a review of the St. Catherine University Occupational Science and Occupational Therapy Masters of Arts in Occupational Therapy curriculum. Suggestions are recommended for content and outcome measures to enhance occupational therapy students' reflective, client-centered, culturally effective practice.

Abstract:
This paper introduces an effective engineered rehabilitation system for understanding and inducing functional recovery of hemiparetic limbs based on the concept of timing-dependent induction of neural plasticity. Limb motor function is commonly impaired after neurologic injury such as stroke, with hemiparesis being one of the major impairments. In an emerging unique intervention for hemiparesis, named repetitive facilitation exercise, or RFE, a therapist manually applies brief mechanical stimuli to the peripheral target muscles (e.g., tapping, stretching of tendon/muscle) immediately before a patient intends to produce a movement with the muscle. The practice of this rehabilitation procedure by a skilled therapist often leads to dramatic rehabilitation outcomes. However, unskilled therapists, most likely due to the inaccuracy of the timing of peripheral stimulation in reference to the intention of movement (i.e. motor command), are unable to recreate the same rehabilitation results. Robotic rehabilitation, on the other hand, can improve the reliability and efficacy of the operation by satisfying the timing precision required by the therapy. This study demonstrates the use of a pneumatically-driven MRI-compatible robot for RFE assessment. The pressure dynamics of the system is studied for an accurate estimation on the time of response of the robot. The required temporal precision of the therapy is obtained and the use of the device is validated through experiments on a human subject.

Abstract:
This paper analyzes the suitability of pneumatically driven, MRI-compatible vane actuators for stroke rehabilitation, particularly functional recovery of hemiparetic limbs. Hemiparesis patients suffer a sudden loss of motor skills in the upper-limb due to brain injury, such as stroke. As an emerging physio-therapy technique for hemiparesis, named repetitive facilitation exercise, or RFE, a therapist manually applies brief mechanical stimuli to the peripheral target muscles (e.g., tapping, stretching of tendon/muscle) followed by wrist pronation/supination immediately before a patient intends to produce a movement with the muscle. In an earlier study, a robotic system that replicates the mechanical tendon stimulation part of RFE procedure in MRI with the required timing precision has been developed and tested by the authors to investigate the underlying principles of functional recovery via RFE. This work presents the design of a vane actuator that fits into the tight space in MR-scanners, and analyzes its dynamic performance via a detailed pneumatic system model. The analysis indicates that a pneumatically driven, tele-operated vane actuator can satisfy the dynamic requirements of the targeted rehabilitation procedure.

Abstract:
Introduction: Acquired Immunodeficiency Syndrome (AIDS) remains a major public health problem, where HIV-infected patients have severe and progressive immune compromise and are responsible for AIDS. Objective: to elucidate possible neurological changes caused by AIDS, as well as to review in the literature the physiotherapeutic role in neurological disorders in people living with HIV / AIDS associated with Neurotoxoplasmosis. Method: Literature revision, using the following databases: VHL (Virtual Health Library), Scielo (A Scientific Electronic Library Online), PubMed (National Library of Medicine), PEDro (Physiotherapy Evidence Database), MEDLINE ( Medical Literature Analysis and Retrieval System Online). Articles were selected that met the inclusion criteria. Results: A scarce number of scientific articles was observed in the databases on the subject, corresponding to 04 publications, of the selected studies the physiotherapy techniques used were stretching, isometric strengthening exercises, range of motion exercises, joint mobilization, neuromuscular facilitation proprioceptive and hydrotherapy. Conclusion: It was seen that physical therapy promotes good results in improving the functionality of patients with HIV associated with neurotoxoplasmosis, mainly in balance, functional mobility, motor coordination and motor symptoms, however there was a shortage of articles in relation to physical therapy treatment for people with HIV. associated with neurotoxoplasmosis, it is suggested that new studies of high methodological quality be developed in order to investigate further on this topic for better evidence-based practice.

Abstract:
Different products necessitate different design processes. Determining which such process is most appropriate for a particular product, in turn, requires its delineation before the design of the product under consideration. The phase where design processes are composed is called meta-design. Despite its importance, current simulation-based design frameworks such as FIPER, ModelCenter, and iSIGHT do not support meta-design. This oversight can be attributed at least in part to the fact that these frameworks capture information about products, design processes, and the associated tools in a lumped fashion. Processes are captured in terms of the specific tools employed and the product information, associated with their use, thereby restricting the re-utilization (i.e., reuse via adaptation or customization) of instantiated processes for designing different products. This inherent inability to separate product and process information hinders the exploration of different design process options for designing a product at a fundamental level, thereby restricting meta-design. In order to address this challenge, we propose an approach for distinctly capturing and processing three key components of design related information - a) design problem, b) design process, and c)product. We term this approach, rooted in decision-based design, modularity, and separation of declarative and procedural information, 3-P. The modular separation of information associated with problem, product, and process enables designers to utilize existing knowledge, captured in the form of pre-defined process configurations, for more effectively designing a given product. The proposed approach facilitates the efficient exploration and reconfiguration of design processes, furnishing a much needed and essential basis for meta-design.

Abstract:
Root-knot nematodes, Meloidogynespp., are extremely destructive pathogens with a cosmopolitan distribution and a host range that affects most crops. Safety and environmental concerns related to the toxicity of nematicides along with a lack of natural resistance sources threaten most crops in Israel and the U.S. This emphasizes the need to identify genes and signal mechanisms that could provide novel nematode control tactics and resistance breeding targets. The sedentary root-knot nematode (RKN) Meloidogynespp. secrete effectors in a spatial and temporal manner to interfere with and mimic multiple physiological and morphological mechanisms, leading to modifications and reprogramming of the host cells' functions, resulted in construction and maintenance of nematodes' feeding sites. For successful parasitism, many effectors act as immunomodulators, aimed to manipulate and suppress immune defense signaling triggered upon nematode invasion. Plant development and defense rely mainly on hormone regulation. Herein, a metabolomic profiling of oxylipins and hormones composition of tomato roots were performed using LC-MS/MS, indicating a fluctuation in oxylipins profile in a compatible interaction. Moreover, further attention was given to uncover the implication of WRKYs transcription factors in regulating nematode development. In addition, in order to identify genes that might interact with the lipidomic defense pathway induced by oxylipins, a RNAseq was performed by exposing M. javanicasecond-stage juveniles to tomato protoplast, 9-HOT and 13-KOD oxylipins. This transcriptome generated a total of 4682 differentially expressed genes (DEGs). Being interested in effectors, we seek for DEGs carrying a predicted secretion signal peptide. Among the DEGs including signal peptide, several had homology with known effectors in other nematode species, other unknown potentially secreted proteins may have a role as root-knot nematodes' effectors which might interact with lipid signaling. The molecular interaction of LOX proteins with the Cyst nematode effectors illustrate the nematode strategy in manipulating plant lipid signals. The function of several other effectors in manipulating plant defense signals, as well as lipids signals, weakening cell walls, attenuating feeding site function and development are still being studied in depth for several novel effectors. As direct outcome of this project, the accumulating findings will be utilized to improve our understanding of the mechanisms governing critical life-cycle phases of the parasitic M. incognita RKN, thereby facilitating design of effective controls based on perturbation of nematode behavior—without producing harmful side effects. The knowledge from this study will promote genome editing strategies aimed at developing nematode resistance in tomato and other nematode-susceptible crop species in Israel and the United States.

Hansen, Peter J., Zvi Roth, and Jeremy J. Block. Improving oocyte competence in dairy cows exposed to heat stress. United States Department of Agriculture, January 2014. http://dx.doi.org/10.32747/2014.7598163.bard.

Abstract:
Original Objectives. The overall goal is to develop methods to increase pregnancy rate in lactating dairy cows exposed to heat stress through methods that minimize damage to the oocyte and embryo caused by heat stress. Objectives were as follows: (1) examine the protective effects of melatonin on developmental competence of oocytes exposed to elevated temperature in vitro; (2) test whether melatonin feeding can improve developmental competence of oocytes in vivo and, if so, whether effects are limited to the summer or also occur in the absence of heat stress; and (3) evaluate the effectiveness of improving fertility by facilitating follicular turnover in the summer and winter. Revised Objectives. (1) Examine protective effects of melatonin and follicular fluid on developmental competence of oocytes exposed to elevated temperature in vitro; (2) examine the protective effects of melatonin on developmental competence of embryos exposed to elevated temperature in vitro; (3) evaluate effectiveness of improving fertility by administering human chorionicgonadotropin (hCG) to increase circulating concentrations of progesterone and evaluate whether response to hCG depends upon genotype for four mutations reported to be related to cow fertility; and (4) identify genes with allelic variants that increase resistance of embryos to heat shock. Background. The overall hypothesis is that pregnancy success is reduced by heat stress because of damage to the oocyte and cleavage-stage embryo mediated by reactive oxygen species (ROS), and that fertility can be improved by provision of antioxidants or by removing follicles containing oocytes damaged by heat stress. During the study, additional evidence from the literature indicated the potential importance of treatment with chorionicgonadotropin to increase fertility of heat- stressed cows and results from other studies in our laboratories implicated genotype as an important determinant of cow fertility. Thus, the project was expanded to evaluate hCG treatment and to identify whether fertility response to hCG depended upon single nucleotide polymorphisms (SNP) in genes implicated as important for cow fertility. We also evaluated whether a SNP in a gene important for cellular resistance to heat stress (HSPA1L, a member of the heat shock protein 70 family) is important for embryonic resistance to elevated temperature. Major conclusions, solutions & achievements. Results confirmed that elevated temperature increases ROS production by the oocyte and embryo and that melatonin decreases ROS. Melatonin reduced, but did not completely block, damaging effects of heat shock on the oocyte and had no effect on development of the embryo. Melatonin was protective to the oocyte at 0.1-1 μM, a concentration too high to be achieved in cows. It was concluded that melatonin is unlikely to be a useful molecule for increasing fertility of heat-stressed cows. Treatment with hCG at day 5 after breeding increased first-service pregnancy rate for primiparous cows but not for multiparous cows. Thus, hCG could be useful for increasing fertility in first-parity cows. The effectiveness of hCG depended upon genotype for a SNP in COQ9, a gene encoding for a mitochondrial-function protein. This result points the way to future efforts to use genetic information to identify populations of cows for which hormone treatments will be effective or ineffective. The SNP in HSPA1L was related to embryonic survival after heat shock. Perhaps, genetic selection for mutations that increase cellular resistance to heat shock could be employed to reduce effects of heat stress on fertility. Implications, both scientific and agricultural. This project has resulted in abandonment of one possible approach to improve fertility of the heat-stressed cow (melatonin therapy) while also leading to a method for improving fertility of primiparous cows exposed to heat stress (hCG treatment) that can be implemented on farms today. Genetic studies have pointed the way to using genetic information to 1) tailor hormonal treatments to cow populations likely to respond favorably and 2) select animals whose embryos have superior resistance to elevated body temperatures.

Abstract:
Risk induced by natural hazards and climate change has been accelerating worldwide, leading to adverse impacts on communities' well-being. Dealing with this risk is increasingly complex and requires cross-sectoral action. Adaptive Social Protection (ASP) has emerged as a promising approach to strengthen the resilience of communities by integrating Social Protection (SP), Disaster Risk Management (DRM) and Climate Change Adaptation (CCA) efforts. To inform this integration and thereby support the development of a functional ASP approach, the identification and provision of relevant data and information are vital. In this context, risk assessments are crucial as they establish the groundwork for the design of effective ASP interventions. However, despite the importance of risk information for ASP and the abundance of sectoral assessments, there is not yet a comprehensive risk assessment approach, a reality that also applies to Indonesia. Although the country is one of the international pioneers of the concept and has enshrined ASP at the highest national level in its development plans, this emphasis in policy and practice has been hampered by the absence of more unified assessment methods. The Hazard, Exposure and Vulnerability Assessment (HEVA) presented here takes a unique approach to develop such a cross-sectoral risk assessment and apply it throughout Indonesia. The HEVA brings together different risk understandings of key actors both internationally and domestically within SP, DRM and CCA, as well as identifying commonalities across sectors to establish a joint understanding. The HEVA not only considers risk as an overarching outcome but also focuses on its drivers, i.e. hazards, exposure and vulnerability, to identify why specific communities are at risk and thus customize ASP interventions. Subsequently, risks are assessed for Indonesia’s regions and provinces based on this cross-sectoral risk understanding. Secondary data has been acquired from various existing sectoral assessments conducted in Indonesia, and in total, data for 44 indicators has been compiled to calculate hazard, exposure and vulnerability levels for all 34 Indonesian provinces. Findings of the HEVA suggest that overall risk is high in Indonesia and no single province can be characterized as a low-risk area, demonstrating a strong relevance for ASP throughout the whole of the country. Papua, Maluku, and Central Sulawesi were identified as provinces with the highest overall risk in Indonesia. However, even Yogyakarta, which was identified as a comparatively low-risk province, still ranks among the ten most hazard-prone provinces in the country and has a demonstrated history of severe impact events. This also underlines that the composition of risk based on the interplay of hazard, exposure and vulnerability differs significantly among provinces. For example, in Papua and West Papua, vulnerability ranks as the highest in Indonesia, while hazard and exposure levels are comparatively low. In contrast, East Java and Central Java are among the highest hazard-prone provinces, while exposure and vulnerability are comparatively low. The results provide much more comprehensive insight than individual sectoral analyses can offer, facilitating the strategic development and implementation of targeted ASP interventions that address the respective key risk components. Based on lessons learned from the development and application of the HEVA approach, as well as from the retrieved results, the report provides recommendations relevant for policymakers, practitioners and researchers. First, recommendations regarding risk assessments for ASP are given, emphasizing the need to bring together sectoral understandings and to consider the interconnection of hazards, exposure and vulnerability, including their drivers and root causes, to assess current and future risk. It is also recommended to complement national level assessments with more specific local assessments. Secondly, recommendations regarding ASP option development in general are provided, including the importance of considering side effects of interventions, root causes of risks, the potential of nature-based solutions and barriers to implementation due to local capacities when designing ASP interventions. Third, recommendations regarding focal areas for ASP programmes are outlined for the case of Indonesia, such as prioritizing interventions in risk hotspots and areas characterized by high readiness for ASP solutions. At the same time, it is vital to leave no region behind as all provinces face risks that potentially jeopardize communities’ well-being.
