Abstract:

ZusammenfassungDie perkutane koronare Intervention (PCI) wird in Deutschland bei über 350 000 Patienten pro Jahr durchgeführt. Die frühzeitige PCI hat zu einer Verbesserung der Prognose der akuten koronaren Syndrome, insbesondere denen mit ST-Strecken-Hebungs-Myokardinfarkt (STEMI), geführt und wird daher in den aktuellen internationalen und nationalen Leitlinien empfohlen. Neue Studien und die Leitlinien haben sich mit der Auswahl des Zugangswegs, der Identifikation hämodynamisch relevanter Stenosen mittels FFR und iFR und der optimalen Strategie der Revaskularisation bei koronarer Mehrgefäßerkrankung bei Patienten mit akutem Herzinfarkt befasst. Danach sollte in Abhängigkeit von der Erfahrung des Untersuchers der transradiale Zugang bevorzugt werden. Falls kein nicht invasiver Ischämienachweis vorliegt, sollte zur Beurteilung der hämodynamischen Relevanz mittelgradiger Stenosen bei stabiler KHK eine Druckdrahtmessung (FFR oder iFR) erfolgen. Beim STEMI ist bei Patienten mit Mehrgefäßerkrankung nach erfolgreicher PCI des Infarktgefäßes ein zweizeitiges Vorgehen, vorzugsweise mit zwischengeschalteter Ischämiediagnostik, die zu bevorzugende Strategie, sowohl bei hämodynamisch stabilen Patienten, aber insbesondere im kardiogenem Schock.

Abstract:

- Two forces were at work in the research activity on municipal plans performed within the ‘LabUrb', that of improving the technical aspects and forms of plans and that of the means and strategies adopted to address the problems of cities in the new contemporary dimension. By recognising interconnections and a reciprocal influence between the two lines of research, this contribution concentrates on the second and examines the aspects and conditions of possible improvements within the limits and fields of operations provided by the reformed plan. The commitment on the issues and problems of contemporary cities represents a constant in terms of a certain way of performing planning activity: a reform commitment in the search for more appropriate forms of intervention and for a pragmatic phase of dialogue with public policy-makers.

Abstract:

The topic of this article is the reconstruction of the scope of the contemporary use of visual investigative methods. It begins with a discussion of the social changes and changes of social theory which have led to a substantial redefinition of the form of video and visual techniques for intervention activities applied by the social sciences. Such activities are based on a greater degree of participation of those who will make use of them than was usual in the past, the technology of the creation and distribution of images is much more widespread, and also there has been an important change in the definition of technical images for the use of the social sciences — these all allow their contemporary utilisation, and are described by the author in the form of five models of strategy: advocacy, cultural representation, the animation of local communities, education in visual competence and control of values and safety. In the second part of the article they are presented using selected and representative examples.

Kurzfassung Dieser Beitrag diskutiert die nationalen Sicherheitsziele und politischen Rahmenbedingungen der Entscheidung der Obama-Regierung, eine Counterinsurgency Strategy zu verfolgen und die Truppenstärke in Afghanistan zu erhöhen. Auf Grundlage der wichtigsten strategischen Dokumente, die die Grundlage des behördenübergreifenden Prozesses bildeten, sowie der politischen Zwänge, unter denen die Obama-Regierung operierte, ist es möglich, die Schlüsselfaktoren zu verstehen, die die Formulierung der Strategie bestimmten. Auch erklärt der Artikel die Widersprüche zwischen dem geopolitischen Kontext, den von Obama definierten strategischen Zielen und den Mitteln, diese zu erreichen. Die Analyse erhellt, dass die Politik bestenfalls einen Teilerfolg erzielen konnte.

Abstract:

ZusammenfassungDie Therapie von Knochen und Muskeln im Zusammenhang mit der Osteoporose hat zwei wesentliche Zielpunkte: 1. Ein weiterer Knochenabbau soll verhindert und, wenn möglich, soll ein neuer Knochen wieder aufgebaut werden. 2. Die Muskulatur muss gekräftigt werden, damit der Knochen durch einen zunehmenden Verformungs-Impuls zum Modelling angeregt wird und durch verbesserte Koordination/ Balance das Sturzrisiko vermindert wird. Demzufolge muss eine moderne, suffiziente Therapie der Osteoporose einer Strategie entsprechen, die beide Organsystem gleichermaßen berücksichtigt. Zur Behandlung des Knochens empfehlen die Leitlinien des Dachverbandes deutsprachiger wissenschaftlicher Gesellschaften für Osteologie (DVO; http://lutherhaus.de/osteo/leitlinien-dvo/) Antiresorptiva wie Alendronat, Ibandronat, Raloxifen und Risedronat und Osteoanabolika wie Teriparatid und Strontium-Ranelat, wobei letztgenannte Substanz sowohl antiresorptiv als auch osteoanabol wirkt. Immer soll, soweit es die Evidenzen der klinischen Interventionsstudien nahe legen, der Patient und die Patientin gleichzeitig ausreichend mit Kalzium und Vitamin D3 versorgt werden.Auch die Therapie der Muskulatur kann pharmakologisch erfolgen, wobei nicht primär an androgene Anabolika gedacht wird, sondern eher an Substanzen wie natives Vitamin D3 oder die aktiven D-Hormone wie Alfacalcidol oder Kalzitriol. Die Evidenzen sind aber noch recht schwach und diese Therapieformen haben daher noch keine Berücksichtigung in den Leitlinien des DVO gefunden. Anders sieht es mit dem Muskeltraining aus als Knochenstimulus und zur Sturzrisiko-Reduktion. Zur Kombination von Knochen- und Muskeltherapie bei der Osteoporose fehlen aber noch klinische Evidenzen. Es besteht somit Forschungsbedarf.

Abstract:

AbstractThis article explores what factors may predict a positive or negative outcome for cognitive enhancement and improved social behaviour after music-supported intervention for patients with cognitive and behavioural deficits following mild traumatic brain injury (mTBI). 7 patients with executive dysfunction following mTBI participated in a music-based intervention. They were in a chronic phase and were either sicklisted or worked part-time. 6 out of 7 participants returned to work post-intervention. Results from neurophysiological tests and fMRI consolidated with enhanced cognitive performance and functional neuroplasticity in orbitofrontal cortex. However, these result were based on quantitative analysis with mean effect and did not give specific information about similarities and divergencies between the participants which may have an impact on the final outcome. The present article applies a case-study methodology and explores behavioural data obtained from the study, not earlier published. This methodology allows an in depth analyse of clinical data, observational data during intervention and data from semi-structured interviews pre-post intervention. Aim of the present article is to develop a systematic treatment strategie of music training to improve cognitive and behavioral domains of functioning in patients with cognitive deficits following mTBI.

Zusammenfassung. Es wird ein Überblick zu aktuell verfügbaren Förderprogrammen für Kinder mit einer Lese-Rechtschreibstörung gegeben. Die Darstellung umfaßt die vorschulische Prävention sowie die Intervention im Grundschul- und Sekundarschulbereich. Im Gegensatz zu traditionellen Methoden fanden bei der Konzeption neuerer Trainingsprogramme empirische Forschungsergebnisse zum Schriftspracherwerb und dessen Voraussetzungen ausreichende Berücksichtigung. Die Bedeutung der phonologischen Bewußtheit, der Erwerb der alphabetischen Strategie und des orthographischen Wissens bildeten wesentliche Grundlagen. Nach wie vor besteht jedoch ein Mangel an kontrollierten Studien zur Evaluation der Interventionsprogramme und zur Bestimmung weiterer spezifischer Wirkfaktoren.

Abstract:

ZusammenfassungBei einer asymptomatischen hochgradigen Aortenklappenstenose (AS) mit normaler linksventrikulärer Funktion sollte eine „Watchful-Waiting“-Strategie verfolgt werden. Asymptomatische Patienten mit Risikofaktoren, wie sehr schwere AS, schwere kalzifizierter AS oder 3-fach erhöhtem proBNP-Level, können bei niedrigem operativem Risiko eine Intervention erhalten. Erste randomisierte Studien weisen auf einen Vorteil des frühzeitigen Aortenklappenersatzes bei niedrigem OP-Risiko hin.Für Patienten mit einer asymptomatischen hochgradigen Aortenklappeninsuffizienz sollte bei niedrigem operativem Risiko bereits frühzeitig eine OP erwogen werden, wenn sich Zeichen der linksventrikulären Schädigung zeigen.Bei asymptomatischer primärer Mitralklappeninsuffizienz (MI) kann die chirurgische Mitralklappenrekonstruktion bereits vor dem Auftreten einer linksventrikulären Dilatation oder anderweitigen Folgeschäden erwogen werden, falls mit einer hohen Rekonstruktionswahrscheinlichkeit zu rechnen ist.

Abstract:

Objective To assess the cost-effectiveness of strategies to increase cervical cancer screening uptake at first invitation (STRATEGIC trial). Methods We performed an economic analysis alongside the STRATEGIC trial, comparing each of seven novel interventions for improving cervical screening uptake with control general practices in Greater Manchester and Grampian (United Kingdom). A template was developed to measure the intervention costs. Trial estimates of screening uptake were combined with data from the literature to estimate healthcare costs of each intervention. The added lifetime costs and quality adjusted life years (QALYs) of attending cervical screening were estimated by a systematic literature review, with relevant results pooled and weighted by study quality. Trial results and estimated lifetime costs and benefits of screening were then combined in a decision analytic model, giving an incremental cost per QALY gained for each intervention. Uncertainty was addressed in probabilistic and univariate sensitivity analyses. Results Intervention costs per screening round per woman attending varied from about £1.20 (2014 UK) for the nurse navigator intervention to £62 for the unrequested HPV self-sampler kit. The meta-analysis revealed a lifetime discounted benefit from screening of 0.043 QALYs per woman attending, at an additional lifetime discounted cost of £234. The incremental cost per QALY gained in all interventions was below £13,000. Probabilistic sensitivity analyses suggested that only unrequested self-sampling and timed appointments have a high probability of being cost-effective. Conclusions Unrequested self-sampling and timed appointments are likely to be cost-effective interventions. Further research is required on the duration of effects and on implementing combinations of interventions.

Abstract:

Early school leaving is a very important issue in our country, both for its individual consequences and for the social and economic repercussions. The Covid-19 pandemic has exacerbated some existing trends, increasing risk factors and putting at greater risk of dropout some portions of the school population. The article reflects on the phenomenon of early school leaving and on intervention options, with particular reference to the period of COVID-19 emergency. Starting from the results of two project experiences conducted in 2020 in some secondary schools of the Autonomous Province of Bolzano, the contribution examines the protective and risk factors, the needs of students at risk, the contents and teaching strategies of interventions. Finally, it reflects on the different options for implementation, on monitoring and research. Prevenire la disaffezione scolastica, l’insuccesso e l’abbandono. I progetti FSE “Last Round” ed “Energy Start” La dispersione scolastica rappresenta una questione di grande rilevanza nel nostro Paese, sia per le sue conseguenze individuali sia per le ricadute sociali ed economiche. La pandemia da Covid-19 ha acuito alcune tendenze già esistenti, ampliando i fattori di rischio e colpendo con maggiore intensità alcune porzioni di popolazione scolastica. L’articolo riflette sul fenomeno dell’abbandono scolastico precoce e sulle opzioni di intervento, con particolare riferimento al periodo di emergenza sanitaria. A partire dai risultati di due esperienze progettuali condotte nell’anno 2020 in alcune scuole secondarie delle Provincia Autonoma di Bolzano, il contributo prende in esame i fattori protettivi e di rischio, i bisogni dell’utenza a rischio di dispersione, i contenuti e le strategie didattiche degli interventi formativi. Infine, si riflette sulle differenti modalità di implementazione, sul monitoraggio e sulla ricerca.

Abstract:

Die Adipositas ist eine chronische Erkrankung, die aus einer Wechselwirkung von Veranlagung und Umgebungseinflüssen (falsche Ernährung, Mangel an Bewegung, psychologische Faktoren) entsteht. Aufgrund der hohen Prävalenz von Folgekrankheiten stellt die Prävention und die Therapie der Adipositas eine der grossen Herausforderungen für unser Gesundheitssystem dar. Ziel jeder Therapie ist es, eine weitere Gewichtszunahme zu stoppen und dann das Gewicht zu reduzieren, um Folgekrankheiten wie z.B. Typ 2 Diabetes zu verhindern. Wegen der hohen Rückfallquote muss jede sinnvolle Intervention dem Anspruch genügen, langdauernd wirksam zu sein. Bei kurzzeitigen, befristeten Therapien (z.B. Diäten, Kuren) kommt es in über 90% der Fälle nach einem initialen Erfolg anschliessend zu einem erneuten Gewichtsanstieg («Jo-Jo-Effekt»). Die hier beschriebenen Daten beziehen sich auf die Wirksamkeit der Behandlung bezüglich Übergewicht und dessen somatischen Folgen. Aufgrund der wissenschaftlichen Datenlage ist die wirksamste Therapie ein integratives Konzept, das auf drei Säulen beruht: erstens soll eine langfristige Umstellung der Ernährung durch Fett- und Kalorienreduktion (tägliches Kaloriendefizit 500–1000 kcal) erfolgen, zweitens gehört ein verhaltenstherapeutisches Element dazu, das die langfristige Änderung der Ess- , Bewegungs- und Lebensgewohnheiten unterstützt, verbunden mit Massnahmen zur Vermeidung von Zwängen und Schuldgefühl im Zusammenhang mit dem Essen, mit einem verbesserten Körperbild und einer Strategie zur Rückfallprophylaxe; drittens soll die körperliche Aktivität gefördert werden. Medikamente (Xenical®, Reductil®) können in ausgewählten Fällen als Bestandteil einer zeitlich befristeten Behandlung eingesetzt werden, sie ersetzen jedoch die oben genannten Massnahmen zur Lebensstiländerung nicht. In bestimmten Fällen ist es auch wichtig, die das Essverhalten überlagernden psychischen Komorbiditäten zu behandeln. Bei therapieresistenter morbider Adipositas (BMI > 40 kg/m2) und beim Vorhandensein von Folgeerkrankungen muss die Indikation für eine chirurgische Intervention in Betracht gezogen werden (Gastric Banding oder Gastric Bypass). Obwohl mit Risiken behaftet, sind diese Methoden bezüglich Gewichtsverlust die effektivsten Massnahmen.

Abstract:

Zusammenfassung. Die Studie befasst sich mit der Unterstützung kooperativer Aufgabenbearbeitung in Videokonferenzen, um die Anwendung von Theoriewissen auf Aufgabenstellungen zu verbessern. Untersucht wurden die Effekte eines Wissensschemas und eines Skripts. Während das Wissensschema darauf abzielte, wichtigste Komponenten einer Aufgabe salient zu machen, stellte das Skript eine Strategie zur Aufgabenbearbeitung bereit. Wissensschema und Skript wurden als Faktoren in einem 2×2-faktoriellen Design variiert. Insgesamt nahmen 156 Lernende an der Untersuchung teil, die in Dreiergruppen eingeteilt und zufällig einer der vier Bedingungen zugeordnet wurden. Die Lernenden hatten die Aufgabe, sich individuell die Inhalte der Attributionstheorie anzueignen und im Anschluss daran dieses Theoriewissen kooperativ auf einen Fall anzuwenden. Um die Effektivität der Intervention zu erfassen, wurden neben den Ergebnissen der kooperativen Aufgabenbearbeitung auch die Ergebnisse einer individuellen Aufgabenlösung analysiert. Die Befunde zeigen einen großen Effekt für das Wissensschema hinsichtlich der kooperativen und individuellen Anwendung des Theoriewissens.

Abstract:

Few acute care healthcare agencies have tested the effect of a caring-focused program on the satisfaction of hospitalized, adult patients. Caring interventions need to be tested to document the effectiveness of nurse caring on a healthcare outcome, patient satisfaction. This study identified critical elements in interventional studies on nurse caring by determining patterns and caring activities in interventions (programs, protocols, or standards) to develop a caring protocol for a National Cancer Institute Comprehensive Cancer Center (NCICCC). Research, other published articles on caring programs, and instruments were analyzed for patterns and elements indicative of caring behaviors or activities representing nurse caring that could contribute to a caring intervention. Intervention dissemination strategies were also analyzed for incorporation into the program’s implementation in a nursing department of the NCICCC. Content analysis techniques identified patterns and activities in caring interventions and intervention dissemination strategies. Comments and written suggestions on the draft caring protocol were solicited from agency stakeholders (N = 22), including administrators, key nursing staff, and members of the Patient Family Advisory Council. The caring protocol/standard of practice and dissemination strategies were identified.

Abstract:

Was ist Neu? Diagnostische Strategie Die Rom-IV-Kriterien für die primäre chronische Obstipation helfen, zwischen kurzfristigen Beschwerden und einem chronischen Beschwerdebild zu unterscheiden 1. Im Allgemeinen finden sich in der Altersgruppe der Hochbetagten mehrere Ursachen für eine Störung der Defäkation. Anamnese und Beachtung von Red Flags neben einem geriatrischen Basisassessment ermöglichen es, die Ursachen einzugrenzen. Die Unterscheidung zwischen einer Low-Transit-Obstipation und normaler Darmfunktion kann die therapeutische Konsequenz entscheidend beeinflussen. Therapeutische Möglichkeiten Bei der medikamentösen Intervention werden osmotische Abführmittel, stimulierende Abführmittel, Zäpfchen und Einläufe mit unterschiedlichen Zusätzen in erster Linie weiterhin sehr häufig verwendet. In zweiter Linie können das Prokinetikum Prucaloprid und seit einigen Jahren Methylnaltrexoniumbromid als ein Vertreter der peripher wirkenden µ-Opioid-Rezeptor-Antagonisten Anwendung finden 2 3. Faserreiche Ernährung vermehrt die Stuhlmasse und präbiotische Zusatzkost kann das Mikrobiom günstig beeinflussen. Zusätzliche Ballaststoffe haben wahrscheinlich keinen Nutzen bei schwerer Verstopfung, insbesondere bei Patienten mit Low-Transit-Obstipation oder Defäkationsstörungen. Bei Vorbereitungen auf Koloskopien scheint eine zusätzliche Bewegungsaktivierung positive Effekte auf die Qualität der Darmreinigung zu haben 4.

Abstract:

Purpose Our aim was to develop a taxonomy of elements comprising phonological interventions for children with speech sound disorders. Method We conducted a content analysis of 15 empirically supported phonological interventions to identify and describe intervention elements. Measures of element concentration, flexibility, and distinctiveness were used to compare and contrast interventions. Results Seventy-two intervention elements were identified using a content analysis of intervention descriptions then arranged to form the Phonological Intervention Taxonomy: a hierarchical framework comprising 4 domains, 15 categories, and 9 subcategories. Across interventions, mean element concentration (number of required or optional elements) was 45, with a range of 27 to 59 elements. Mean flexibility of interventions (percentage of elements considered optional out of all elements included in the intervention) was 44%, with a range of 29% to 62%. Distinctiveness of interventions (percentage of an intervention's rare elements and omitted common elements out of all elements included in the intervention [both optional and required]) ranged from 0% to 30%. Conclusions An understanding of the elements that comprise interventions and a taxonomy that describes their structural relationships can provide insight into similarities and differences between interventions, help in the identification of elements that drive treatment effects, and facilitate faithful implementation or intervention modification. Research is needed to distil active elements and identify strategies that best facilitate replication and implementation.

Abstract:

AbstractThe principal goal of research relative to disasters is to decrease the risk that a hazard will result in a disaster. Disaster studies pursue two distinct directions: (1) epidemiological (non-interventional); and (2) interventional. Both interventional and non-interventional studies require data/information obtained from assessments of function. Non-interventional studies examine the epidemiology of disasters. Interventional studies evaluate specific interventions/responses in terms of their effectiveness in meeting their respective objectives, their contribution to the overarching goal, other effects created, their respective costs, and the efficiency with which they achieved their objectives. The results of interventional studies should contribute to evidence that will be used to inform the decisions used to define standards of care and best practices for a given setting based on these standards. Interventional studies are based on the Disaster Logic Model (DLM) and are used to change or maintain levels of function (LOFs). Relief and Recovery interventional studies seek to determine the effects, outcomes, impacts, costs, and value of the intervention provided after the onset of a damaging event. The Relief/Recovery Framework provides the structure needed to systematically study the processes involved in providing relief or recovery interventions that result in a new LOF for a given Societal System and/or its component functions. It consists of the following transformational processes (steps): (1) identification of the functional state prior to the onset of the event (pre-event); (2) assessments of the current functional state; (3) comparison of the current functional state with the pre-event state and with the results of the last assessment; (4) needs identification; (5) strategic planning, including establishing the overall strategic goal(s), objectives, and priorities for interventions; (6) identification of options for interventions; (7) selection of the most appropriate intervention(s); (8) operational planning; (9) implementation of the intervention(s); (10) assessments of the effects and changes in LOFs resulting from the intervention(s); (11) determination of the costs of providing the intervention; (12) determination of the current functional status; (13) synthesis of the findings with current evidence to define the benefits and value of the intervention to the affected population; and (14) codification of the findings into new evidence. Each of these steps in the Framework is a production function that facilitates evaluation, and the outputs of the transformation process establish the current state for the next step in the process. The evidence obtained is integrated into augmenting the respective Response Capacities of a community-at-risk. The ultimate impact of enhanced Response Capacity is determined by studying the epidemiology of the next event.BirnbaumML, DailyEK, O’RourkeAP.

Abstract:

After September 11 the military factor has increased, in NATO countries additional funds are allocated to arming. Unfortunately UN lose ground, as neither US nor NATO accept the UN monopoly on the use of force any more. NATO war against Yugoslavia in 1999 - not based on UN security council mandate - was not an exception. September 11 has catalyst function for political and military development already under way since 1991 when NATO updated Strategie Concept in Rome, decided for out-of.area missions and already saw the risk of terrorist acts. New NATO means an aggressive military network of meanwhile 46 nations in Europe including Russia. The war against terrorism smoothes the way for global „North Alliance" menacing the South. In future, the cooperation NATO-Russia will intensify. Within NATO the predominance of US over Western Europe is increasing. US leadership is not challenged in the next years as the EU plans for autonomous intervention forces still lade military key capabilities. As NATO provides for interoperability between NATO members and NATO Partnership for Peace countries as well it will maintain its important function for US. Thus, they will not give up NATO.

Abstract:

Radiotherapy-induced damage to non-cancerous gastrointestinal mucosa has effects on secretory and absorptive functions and can interfere with normal gastrointestinal physiology. Nutrient absorption and digestion may be compromised. Dietary manipulation is an attractive option with sound rationale for intervention. The aim of this review was to synthesise published evidence for the use of elemental formulae, low or modified fat diets, fibre, lactose restriction and probiotics, prebiotics and synbiotics to protect the bowel from gastrointestinal side effects during long-course, radical pelvic radiotherapy. Thirty original studies (recruiting n 3197 patients) were identified comprising twenty-four randomised controlled trials, four cohort studies and two comparator trials. Endpoints varied and included symptom scales (Inflammatory Bowel Disease Questionnaire, Common Technology Criteria for Adverse Events, Radiation Therapy Oncology Group) and Bristol Stool Scale. Dietary and supplement interventions were employed with many studies using a combination of interventions. Evidence from RCT was weak for elemental, low or modified fat and low-lactose interventions and modestly positive for the manipulation of fibre during radiotherapy. Evidence for probiotics as prophylactic interventional agents was more promising with a number of trials reporting positive results but strength and strains of interventions vary, as do methodologies and endpoints making it difficult to arrive at firm conclusions with several studies lacking statistical power. This consolidated review concludes that there is insufficient high-grade evidence to recommend nutritional intervention during pelvic radiotherapy. Total replacement of diet with elemental formula could be effective in severe toxicity but this is unproven. Probiotics offer promise but cannot be introduced into clinical practice without rigorous safety analysis, not least in immunocompromised patients.

Abstract:

There have been various systematic reviews on the significance of educational interventions as necessary components to encourage breast cancer screening (BCS) and reduce the burden of breast cancer (BC). However, only a few studies have attempted to examine these educational interventions comprehensively. This review paper aimed to systematically evaluate the effectiveness of various educational interventions in improving BCS uptake, knowledge, and beliefs among women in different parts of the world. Following the PRISMA guidelines, a comprehensive literature search on four electronic databases, specifically PubMed, Scopus, Web of Science, and ScienceDirect, was performed in May 2019. A total of 22 interventional studies were reviewed. Theory- and language-based multiple intervention strategies, which were mainly performed in community and healthcare settings, were the commonly shared characteristics of the educational interventions. Most of these studies on the effectiveness of interventions showed favorable outcomes in terms of the BCS uptake, knowledge, and beliefs among women. Educational interventions potentially increase BCS among women. The interpretation of the reported findings should be treated with caution due to the heterogeneity of the studies in terms of the characteristics of the participants, research designs, intervention strategies, and outcome measures.

Abstract:

Even though growth hormone (GH) treatment is still the only active treatment option to correct growth failure and increase stature for patients with GH deficiencies, evidence has shown that non-adherence remains high. The aim of this review was to identify and review the existing interventional strategies that have been designed to address and improve adherence to GH treatment for pediatric patients and their families. An extensive search of several electronic databases was undertaken to identify relevant interventional studies, published in English, between 1985 and 2021. Additional search strategies included hand-searching topic review articles to identify eligible studies. Articles were screened against the inclusion eligibility criteria and data on sample characteristics, intervention features, and key findings was extracted. A total of fifteen interventional studies were included in the review. The interventions identified were divided into two broad categories: novel injection devices, and patient choice of device. In conclusions, this review acknowledges that there is a lack of evidence-based, theory-driven intervention strategies, designed with the purpose of optimizing treatment adherence and improve clinical and psychosocial outcomes.

Abstract:

Zusammenfassung Hintergrund Bei 15 – 20% der Patienten mit akuter Pankreatitis entwickelt sich eine nekrotisierende Form. Die Mortalität beträgt bis zu 20%. Entscheidende Säulen der Behandlung sind die intensivmedizinische Therapie sowie chirurgische und interventionelle Maßnahmen. Methoden Diese Übersichtsarbeit zur Indikationsstellung von chirurgischen und interventionellen Maßnahmen bei der nekrotisierenden Pankreatitis wurde auf der Basis einer systematischen Literaturrecherche verfasst. In der Analyse wurden 85 Artikel ausgewertet. Die Ergebnisse wurden im Delphi-Befragungsverfahren der Qualitätskommission der Deutschen Gesellschaft für Allgemein- und Viszeralchirurgie (DGAV) und Experten auf einer Sitzung des Viszeralmedizin-Kongresses in Wiesbaden 2019 vorgestellt. Bei der abschließenden Formulierung der Empfehlungen wurde ein starker Konsensus von 84% bei den Befragten erreicht. Ergebnisse Bei Nachweis oder Verdacht auf eine Infektion der Pankreasnekrosen besteht eine Indikation zur chirurgischen und interventionellen Behandlung (Empfehlungsgrad: stark; Evidenzstärke: schwach). In Ausnahmefällen stellen auch sterile Nekrosen eine Indikation zur Intervention dar. Wenn es der klinische Zustand erlaubt, sollte die Intervention bis in die 4. Krankheitswoche geschoben werden. Als Therapiestrategie wird mit hohem Evidenz- und Empfehlungsgrad der „step-up approach“ empfohlen. Diese Strategie der Therapieeskalation beinhaltet als 1. Maßnahme eine Drainagebehandlung und bei Erfolglosigkeit die minimalinvasive chirurgische oder endoskopische Nekrosektomie. Sind die minimalinvasiven Techniken nicht effektiv, ist die offene Nekrosektomie indiziert. Nach primärer Drainagebehandlung kann bei 35 – 50% der Patienten die 2. Therapiestufe der Nekrosektomie vermieden werden. Indikationen zur Notfalloperation sind Organperforation, Darmischämie, interventionell nicht stillbare Blutungen und das abdominelle Kompartmentsyndrom bei erfolgloser konservativer Therapie. Spätabszesse und symptomatische Pseudozysten sind Indikationen für eine interventionelle Drainagebehandlung. Bei der biliären Pankreatitis ist die Cholezystektomie indiziert, bei der milden Form frühelektiv und bei schwerem Verlauf frühestens nach 6 – 8 Wochen. Schlussfolgerung Die vorliegenden Empfehlungen enthalten Kriterien für die Indikationsstellung zur chirurgischen und interventionellen Behandlung der akuten Pankreatitis. Sie sollen als Referenzstandards für die Entscheidungsfindung in einem multidisziplinären Team dienen.

Abstract:

Background and Objectives: Group-based lifestyle interventions reap social support benefits and have been implemented among individuals with various chronic diseases. However, there is a lack of consolidated evidence on its approaches to prevent or manage metabolic syndrome (MetS). This scoping review aims to assess the group-based lifestyle interventional strategies for MetS and provide a strategic framework for future research in this area. Materials and Methods: Scholarly databases (OVID Medline, SCOPUS, PUBMED, PsycINFO, EMBASE, and Cochrane Central Register of Controlled Trials) and reference lists of included publications were systematically searched using appropriate keywords and MeSH terms. Peer-reviewed articles published from the start of indexing to 31 December 2020 focused on individuals with or at risk for MetS were included. Results: Thirteen interventions were identified, with seven conducted among adults with MetS and six in the population at risk for MetS. Three study designs were reported—randomised controlled trials (RCTs), pre–post interventions, and quasi-experiments. Most of the interventions were based in the community or community organisations, multifaceted, led by a multidisciplinary healthcare team, and assisted by peer educators. Waist circumference showed the most promising MetS-related improvement, followed by blood pressure. Conclusions: There is growing evidence supporting group-based lifestyle interventions to improve MetS-related risk factors. In summary, four strategies are recommended for future research to facilitate group-based interventions in preventing and managing MetS.

Abstract:

In dieser Studie wurde untersucht, wie das Leseverständnis von Schülern der 5. Klasse mittels reziproken Lehrens gefördert werden kann. Dabei wurde insbesondere betrachtet, welche Relevanz die Vermittlung spezifischer Lesestrategien besitzt. Die Stichprobe bestand aus 380 Schülern aus 15 Klassen, die einer von drei Bedingungen zugewiesen wurden: (a) Training der vier Lesestrategien Klären, Fragen, Vorhersagen, Zusammenfassen (4S), (b) Training der drei Lesestrategien Klären, Fragen, Vorhersagen (3S) oder (c) Training der Leseflüssigkeit (LF; keine Vermittlung von Lesestrategien). Der Lernerfolg wurde unmittelbar sowie 9 Wochen nach Abschluss der Intervention mittels standardisierter Leseverständnis- und Leseflüssigkeitstests sowie selbst konstruierter Tests zur Erfassung der Qualität der Strategieanwendung erhoben. Zusätzlich wurden im Verlauf des Trainings Prozessdaten erfasst. Bezogen auf die Leseflüssigkeit zeigte der Prätest-Posttest-Vergleich, dass sich Schüler aller Bedingungen verbesserten. Zum Follow-up-Test schnitten hingegen LF-Schüler besser ab als Schüler der Strategie-Bedingungen. Bezogen auf das Leseverständnis erreichten nach Abschluss des Trainings 3S-Schüler bessere Leistungen als Schüler der anderen Trainingsbedingungen. Sie konnten ihren Vorsprung mittelfristig jedoch nicht aufrechterhalten. 3S- und 4S-Schüler erstellten zum Posttest signifikant bessere Zusammenfassungen als LF-Schüler. Schließlich zeigten die Prozessdaten, dass sich Schüler beider Strategiebedingungen kontinuierlich in der Anwendung der Lesestrategien Fragen und Vorhersagen verbesserten. Es werden Veränderungen des Trainings zur Steigerung der Effektivität bei Umsetzung in Regelschulklassen diskutiert.

Abstract:

International actors have used multiple discursive frameworks for justifying interventions, from human security to the responsibility to protect, and, most recently, resilience-building. We argue that the language of normalization, hidden behind these narratives of interventions, has also contributed to structure the intervention landscape, albeit in less obvious and overt ways than other competing narratives of intervention. This article disentangles the different practices of normalization in order to highlight their ramifications. It introduces the concept of normal peace—a new conceptual reference to understand interventions undertaken by the international community to impose, restore or accept normalcy in turbulent societies. The article argues that the optimization of interventions entails selective responses to govern risk and adapt to the transitional international order. The art of what is politically possible underlines the choice of optimal intervention, be that to impose an external order of normalcy, restore the previous order of normalcy, or accept the existing order of normalcy.

Abstract:

Background: Engaging with nature can profoundly impact psychological and physiological health of persons across the lifespan. Greenspace interventions (GSI) encompass a broad range of strategic, nature-based activities for overall health and wellbeing. Within the past 20 years there has been a growing interest in the access to and management of greenspace to mediate the deleterious impact of acute and chronic stress, particularly, physiologic biomarkers of stress such as cortisol. Objective: This review aims to describe the impact of greenspace interventions on cortisol, to present the current state of the science on GSIs as they impact cortisol, and to uncover any limitations of current research strategies to best inform future research. Methods: A scoping methodology was conducted to systematically study this emerging field and inform future research by mapping the literature based on the GSI category, interventional design, cortisol metrics, and subsequent analysis of cortisol. Conclusion: Considerable heterogeneity in research design, aim(s), interventional strategy, and cortisol metrics were identified from a total of 18 studies on GSIs and cortisol outcomes. While studies demonstrated a potential for the positive association between GSIs and stress relief, more rigorous research is needed to represent GSIs as an intervention to mitigate risks of stress.

Abstract:

Given the growing body of evidence on COVID-19 vaccine hesitancy among Black populations, the aim of this systematic review was to identify the interventions and strategies used to improve COVID-19 vaccine confidence and uptake among Black populations globally. To identify relevant studies, we conducted a systematic review of the literature based on a systematic search of 10 electronic databases: MEDLINE, Embase, PsycINFO, CINAHL, Scopus, Cochrane Library, Web of Science, Sociological Abstracts, Dissertations and Theses Global, and SocINDEX. We screened a total of 1728 records and included 14 peer-reviewed interventional studies that were conducted to address COVID-19 vaccine hesitancy among Black populations. A critical appraisal of the included studies was performed using the Newcastle-Ottawa Quality Assessment Scale. The intervention strategies for increasing COVID-19 vaccine uptake were synthesized into three major categories: communication and information-based interventions, mandate-based interventions, and incentive-based interventions. Interventions that incorporated communication, community engagement, and culturally inclusive resources significantly improved vaccine uptake among Black populations, while incentive- and mandate-based interventions had less impact. Overall, this systematic review revealed that consideration of the sociocultural, historical, and political contexts of Black populations is important, but tailored interventions that integrate culture-affirming strategies are more likely to decrease COVID-19 vaccine hesitancy and increase uptake among Black populations.

Abstract:

Abstract The goal of the paper is to present the intervention strategies used by central banks in order to influence the value of the domestic currency, transparency versus discretion when it comes to publishing data about FX intervention and the cost and effectiveness of intervention. It is rarely that nowadays countries allow for an exchange rate to be formed on the market basis through the effects of supply and demand for foreign exchange on the foreign exchange market. The central bank buys or sells a foreign currency in the foreign exchange market in order to increase or decrease the value of its national currency in comparison to the foreign currency. The reasons for the intervention are the reduction of short-term oscillations of the exchange rate, the impact at the level of foreign exchange reserves, as well as the maintaining the price and financial stability as the ultimate goal of most central banks. The paper will present intervention strategies on foreign exchange market, which involves the implementation of interventions in the market of options, forward, foreign currency repo and foreign currency swaps. Then, on the spot market, interventions using an auction, as well as the application of foreign currency indexed certificates.

Abstract:

The purpose of this study was to examine psychosocial constructs targeted as potential mediators in a prior physical activity (PA) intervention study. This secondary analysis used data from 102 older adults randomized to one of four conditions—within a 2 (Interpersonal Strategies: yes, no) x 2 (Intrapersonal Strategies: yes, no) factorial design. We tested intervention effects on social support, self-efficacy, self-regulation, and goal attainment, and whether these constructs mediated intervention effects on PA. Participants who received interventions with interpersonal strategies, compared to those who did not, increased their readiness (post-intervention), the self-regulation subscale of self-assessment, and goal attainment (post-intervention, 6-months). Participants who received interventions with intrapersonal strategies, compared to those who did not, increased their social support from family (post-intervention). There was no statistically significant mediation. To understand mechanisms through which interventions increase older adults’ PA and to improve intervention effectiveness, researchers should continue to examine potential psychosocial mediators.

Abstract:

School is the most cost-effective and easiest way to access 5-15-year-old children. Owing to the development of permanent teeth, the increasing prevalence of dental caries, and the formation of social life, these children are the main target group in oral hygiene promotion programs. The present study aimed to evaluate the effect of interventional strategies on improving oral health and dental hygiene of 5-15-year-old students. Electronic search in Scopus, PubMed, Science Direct, Springer, and Biomed Central databases was performed using English keywords, and the studies that were conducted on educational interventions to improve oral health, dental hygiene, prevention, and control of caries among students between January 2004 and March 2021 were reviewed. Thirteen selected studies were divided into two categories: educational interventions based on self-care behaviors and prevention services (fluoride varnish and fissure sealant) and educational interventions based on self-care behaviors. Interventions that included continuing the intervention, involved parents and school staff in the program, used a combination of several educational methods and used preventive services were associated with greater success in enhancing knowledge, health behaviors, reducing plaque, and tooth decay. Continuation of group education, combined use of educational programs, follow-up, and the use of behavior change models and provision of preventive services are the best ways to design and plan an intervention to improve oral health and dental hygiene in elementary school students.

BackgroundSuicide is one of the serious problems, which become ten causes of death in the world. An increased risk of suicide groups stimulates researchers to undertake the development of suicide prevention efforts with various approaches.ObjectivesTo examine evidence of suicide preventive interventions and to make recommendation for the further programs and research.MethodsFifteen identified systematic review articles were taken through an electronic search of the Cochrane library, McMaster health forum, Google Scholar, PubMed, and Suicidology online. They have been published between March 2008 until January 2015, using the keyword “suicide”, “self-harm”, “suicide prevention”, and “systematic review”. Criteria of this review include the type of intervention, intervention category, group intervention and intervention effectiveness.ResultsThe intervention was performed using a strategy of promotion, prevention, treatment, and rehabilitation of the target group of teenagers, sexual perversion, suicide risk groups, such as drug abuse, mental illness patients, a group of health workers and the general public. Effectiveness of therapy has different effects and requires a combination of an intervention strategy with other interventions to obtain optimal results.ConclusionThe strategies of suicide prevention which were identified by various intervention approaches given to the large population require more stringent controls and difficulty in performing evaluation. Furthermore, pharmacological and psychological therapies are recommended to reduce the suicide rate in more specific setting such as a hospital or mental health clinic.Disclosure of interestThe author has not supplied his/her declaration of competing interest.

Abstract:

This review identifies the most promising intervention strategies for promoting the purchase and consumption of healthier items within U.S. grocery retail settings, with a particular focus on those strategies that may be most effective when implemented within SNAP-authorized retail settings. Searches of nine electronic databases, as well as forward and backward searches, yielded 1942 studies. After being screened, 73 peer-reviewed academic articles were identified for inclusion. Of these, 33 analyzed single-component interventions, while 40 assessed multi-component interventions. The following unique intervention types were considered as evaluated in these studies for their ability to increase healthy item purchasing and consumption: (1) nutrition scoring, (2) nutritional messaging, (3) non-nutritional messaging, (4) endcaps and secondary placement, (5) point-of-sale interventions, (6) increased stocking, (7) food tasting and demonstrations, (8) nutrition education, and (9) placement on shelf interventions. Nutritional scoring and nutritional messaging emerged as the most rigorously tested and effective intervention strategies. Other strategies warrant more research attention. Simple intervention strategies, as opposed to complex ones, yield the most successful results and minimize shopper burden. Therefore, these strategies should be reviewed for policy implementation within SNAP-authorized grocery retailers.

Abstract:

How do third parties decide to intervene in civil conflicts? The study of intervention has focused primarily on the conflict characteristics and dyadic linkages that make intervention more likely, or the conflict outcomes that interventions generate, while holding all else equal. To paint a more complete picture of what goes into the intervention decision, I advocate a shift in the way we conceive of interventions toward network analysis, which grants due agency to the multiple external actors and internal combatants that influence the decision to intervene. This review critically examines and synthesizes the recent literature on third-party interventions in civil conflict and, in so doing, identifies some areas for future research.
