Résumé :
Given the widespread use of social media among adolescents, online interactions that facilitate high school students’ college knowledge acquisition could have a transformative impact on college access patterns, especially for underrepresented students. Our study uses interview data collected from Black high school students in Detroit ( N = 24) to examine their experiences and perceptions as they prepare for the transition to post-secondary education. In contrast to traditional social capital perspectives that tend to dominate social media scholarship, we instead employ a Community Cultural Wealth framework to reveal how students access distinctive forms of cultural resources via online and offline interactions. Our findings suggest students used social media to access cultural wealth as they (1) developed post-secondary educational aspirations, (2) planned to navigate the post-secondary admissions process, (3) resisted stereotypes about youth from Detroit, and (4) engaged in platform-switching to cultivate their college information networks online.

Résumé :
ABSTRACT Interdisciplinary collaboration in higher education can produce valuable learning experiences beyond that of a single discipline approach. The University of Detroit Mercy College of Engineering and College of Health Professions have effectively collaborated yielding results that benefit not only the student but physically challenged individuals living in the Detroit area. Teams of engineering students and nursing students work together on projects to build assistive devices that improve the lives of people in need. This paper describes the techniques, goals and objectives used in multidisciplinary collaborative education. Students who have completed the course have described an enhanced understanding of how to effectively collaborate with members of other disciplines. Clients who have worked with the multidisciplinary teams have benefited by receiving assistive devices that have significantly improved their activities of daily living.

ABSTRACT: Nurses and other healthcare workers in the United States are at increased risk of suicide compared to non-healthcare workers. College students also experience high suicide risk. To impact suicide prevention in these populations, a Question, Persuade, Refer (QPR) 1-hour gatekeeper suicide prevention training program was implemented at the University of Detroit Mercy for faculty, staff, and administrators in the College of Health Professions (N = 43). Knowledge in seven areas of suicide significantly increased after the training (p < .001). Sixteen attitudes about suicide improved; however, only two showed a statistically significant change. Results support that 1-hour QPR training can be effectively implemented in a large organization.

Based on data collected from college students in Beijing and Hong Kong (China) and in Newark and Detroit (United States), this study assesses and explains citizen preferences of 2 major formalized responses to intimate partner violence (IPV)—law enforcement and social services intervention—in a cross-cultural context. Results show that Chinese respondents have lower support for law enforcement responses. Regional variation is only observed within China with students from Hong Kong supporting both law enforcement and social services responses more than their Beijing counterparts. Results also show that social attitudinal variables—including male dominance ideology, perceptions of IPV causation, support for the criminalization of IPV, and tolerance of IPV—influence public preferences of responses to IPV more than do demographic and experiential variables.

In February 2003 my close friend Jeff Hubbard died in a car accident, taking the curve of an icy metro Detroit highway exit ramp too fast late one weekend night. He was twenty years old and had been living at home with his parents since we graduated from high school, working odd jobs—a host at a Mexican restaurant, a temporary letter carrier for the USPS—and helping take care of his young nephew. I was in college in New York, and a friend called to give me the news. I knew that I needed to go home to Michigan for the funeral to believe that it had really happened.

Résumé :
The public health emergency caused by the COVID-19 pandemic stimulated stakeholders from diverse disciplines and institutions to establish new collaborations to produce informed public health responses to the disease. Wastewater-based epidemiology for COVID-19 grew quickly during the pandemic and required the rapid implementation of such collaborations. The objective of this article is to describe the challenges and results of new relationships developed in Detroit, MI, USA among a medical school and an engineering college at an academic institution (Wayne State University), the local health department (Detroit Health Department), and an environmental services company (LimnoTech) to utilize markers of the COVID-19 virus, SARS-CoV-2, in wastewater for the goal of managing COVID-19 outbreaks. Our collaborative team resolved questions related to sewershed selection, communication of results, and public health responses and addressed technical challenges that included ground-truthing the sewer maps, overcoming supply chain issues, improving the speed and sensitivity of measurements, and training new personnel to deal with a new disease under pandemic conditions. Recognition of our complementary roles and clear communication among the partners enabled city-wide wastewater data to inform public health responses within a few months of the availability of funding in 2020, and to make improvements in sensitivity and understanding to be made as the pandemic progressed and evolved. As a result, the outbreaks of COVID-19 in Detroit in fall and winter 2021–2022 (corresponding to Delta and Omicron variant outbreaks) were tracked in 20 sewersheds. Data comparing community- and hospital-associated sewersheds indicate a one- to two-week advance warning in the community of subsequent peaks in viral markers in hospital sewersheds. The new institutional relationships impelled by the pandemic provide a good basis for continuing collaborations to utilize wastewater-based human and pathogen data for improving the public health in the future.

Résumé :
This article focuses on a 1968 documentary radio series titled Seeds of Discontent and a recently established archival collection that centers on it. Created by Hartford Smith Jr., a Black social worker and professor in Detroit, and distributed by the National Educational Radio Network, Seeds of Discontent started with his concern over mass media’s coverage of riots and the social problems that caused them. Through interviews with college student activists, families living in poverty, teachers frustrated by the failings of the education system, middle-class workers, incarcerated youth, and many others, Smith used the series to explore the roots of social problems facing the United States, with frequent attention to the challenges and experiences of Black people living in Detroit, as well as possible solutions. By speaking to the people affected by social problems instead of the experts usually consulted in mass media, Smith’s ethos of access emphasizes the idea that the distance between media organizations and media professionals and the public whose circumstances and histories are being mediated is limiting, exacerbating the impact of the already-sown seeds of discontent at the core of societal structural issues. More than 50 years later, this commitment to access continued as Smith requested that the Wisconsin Center for Film and Theater Research (WCFTR) make his collection broadly accessible. This article outlines Smith’s approach in Seeds of Discontent and the story of the collection as a case study on the possibilities and challenges of access in contemporary archives.

Résumé :
Abstract. Crime has an inherent geographical quality and when a crime occurs, it happens within a particular space making spatiality essential component in crime studies. To prevent and respond to crimes, it is first essential to identify the factors that trigger crimes and then design policy and strategy based on each factor. This project investigates the spatial dimension of violent crime rates in the city of Detroit for 2019. Crime data were obtained from the City of Detroit Data Portal and demographic data relating to social disorganization theory were obtained from the Census Bureau. In the presence of spatial spill over and spatial dependence, the assumptions of classical statistics are violated, and Ordinary Least Squares estimations are inefficient in explaining spatial dimensions of crime. This paper uses explanatory variables relating to the social disorganization theory of crime and spatial autoregressive models to determine the predictors of violent crime in the City for the period. Using GeoDa 1.18 and ArcGIS Desktop 10.7.1 software package, Spatial Lag Models (SLM) and Spatial Error Models were carried out to determine which model has high performance in identifying predictors of violent crime. SLM outperformed SEM in terms of efficiency with (AIC:5268.52; Breusch-Pagan test: 9.8402; R2: 16% &amp; Log Likelihood: −2627.26) > SEM (AIC: 5275.24; Breusch-Pagan test: 9.7601; R2: 15% &amp; Log Likelihood: −2630.6194). Strong support is found for the spatial disorganization theory of crime. High percent ethnic heterogeneity (% black) and high college graduates are the strongest predictors of violent crime in the study area.

Résumé :
Three separate marketing studies were conducted during 2000 to determine consumer purchase behavior, use, and potential for purchasing edible flowers. First, a telephone survey was administered to 423 randomly selected residences in the Metro-Detroit area. Participants with some college education were more likely to have eaten edible flowers, would be more likely to eat them, and would be more likely to buy them. A second survey conducted with 25 Michigan Master Gardeners collected more detailed responses about edible flower purchase and use. Females were more likely to purchase edible flowers than males. Single-person households were less likely to have grown edible flowers than larger households. Participants with an annual income ≤$39,999 were half as likely to have purchased edible flowers as the higher income group. A third consumer survey was conducted over a 6-week period with three Metro-Detroit area grocery stores where consumers purchased containers of edible flowers with an attached survey form. A total of 243 of 360 containers of edible flowers were sold, and we received a 27% response rate. All respondents (100%) with an annual income ≥$30,001 were likely to like the flavor of the flowers. Across all three studies, there were few significant differences between demographic characteristics, which indicates that a homogeneous marketing strategy may effectively reach consumers. Based on these results, there appears to be is consumer interest in edible flowers, some consumers have had experience using and serving them, and will purchase them in grocery stores if marketed to attract the consumers interest.

Résumé :
According to the schemata normally used by critics, jazz ceased to be ‘popular music’ with the arrival of bebop in the mid-1940s. While this statement has some truth to it, it also requires a good deal of qualification. Like blues, jazz remained economically viable in black neighbourhoods until driven out by the slicker pop sounds of the late 1960s. That jazz (with the exception of the ‘cool’ style played by Stan Getz, Gerry Mulligan, etc.) had a primarily black audience is confirmed by Joe Fields, currently with Muse Records and formerly employed by Prestige and Columbia:Our records sold to some white college kids, but our sales (at Prestige) were overwhelmingly to blacks – not just tenor and organ stuff but hard bop too. That's why what we sold in Boston was nothing compared to Chicago, Detroit, St Louis, Cleveland … Our sales in Los Angeles were much better than in San Francisco.

One of the first studies to take the Greek system seriously and recognize it for the social and cultural force it was during its heyday in the early part of the twentieth century, Sanua's book provides readers with rare access to the aspirations, concerns, and ideals of a large segment—estimated between one fourth and one third—of the American Jewish college-going population of this time period.

Résumé :
This study uses a field experiment to study bias against living with Arab American women, a group whose position in the U.S. race system remains uncertain. We developed fictitious female white and Arab American identities and used the audit method to respond to 560 roommate-wanted advertisements in four metro areas: Los Angeles, New York, Detroit, and Houston. To focus on social—rather than purely economic—biases, all responses identified the sender as college-educated and employed and were written in grammatically correct English. We compare the number of replies received, finding that Arab-origin names receive about 40 percent fewer replies. We then model variation in discrimination rates by proximity to mosques, geographic concentration of mosques, and the percentage of Arabs living in a census tract so as to test ethnic competition theory and the contact hypothesis. In Los Angeles and New York, greater discrimination occurred in neighborhoods with the highest concentration of mosques.

Résumé :
5092 Background: Black men with prostate cancer typically present with a higher Gleason Score (GS) and more aggressive disease than White men. The purpose of this project is to describe the relationship between socio-demographic, clinical and genomic variability with GS categories among 599 men with prostate cancer in the Detroit Research on Cancer Survivorship (ROCS) cohort. Methods: Detroit ROCS is a cohort of Black cancer survivors based in the Detroit Metropolitan area. Patient data was obtained from a self-administered questionnaire, cancer registry and biologic samples were collected through at home phlebotomy or mailed saliva kits. The primary analysis focused on clinical and genetic differences between men with GS ≤ 6 vs. ≥ 7. Germline data was compiled into the multi-ethnic genotyping array (MEGA) data panel and 21 genes were chosen for analysis (2,393 SNPS) based on their clinical applicability. Eight tools were used in ANNOtate VARiation (ANNOVAR) to determine whether a genetic variant was pathogenic. The determination of pathogenicity was defined by at least seven of the tools indicating variant pathogenicity. We assessed the rate of pathogenic variants for each GS category. Multivariable models of predictors of GS categories were conducted using logistic regression. Results: The categories across GS in the ROCS cohort included: ≤ 6 (21.2%), 3+4 (40.4%), 4+3 (20.2%) and ≥ 8 (18.2%). Variables associated with increased GS (≥ 7 vs. ≤ 6) included age (for each 10-year increase the OR was 1.71, 95% CI 1.26-2.34) and body mass index (for each 5 unit increase the OR was 1.27, 95% 1.06-1.54). Higher vs. lower education (some college education or higher vs less than or equal to a high school education) was associated with lower GS, OR 0.58, 95% CI 0.37-0.96. Out of a total of 2,393 SNPs analyzed, 880 (36.8%) were polymorphic, of which 684 had a minor allele frequency (MAF) >0.001, and 282 had a MAF >0.05. Overall, 16.2% of the men were carriers of a pathogenic variant, the most common of which were ATR (9.3%), FANCL (3.5%), and ATM (1.7). Men with GS 6 had a lower rate of pathogenic variants (8.7%), than those with GS 3+4 (18.2%), GS 4+3 (16.5%), and GS 8 (20.2%). Men with a pathogenic variant in ATR were 2.87 (95% CI 1.08- 7.65) times more likely to have GS ≥ 7 vs. ≤ 6. Higher GS was specifically associated with SNP rs33972295 in the ATR gene. Conclusions: The relationship between older age, higher BMI, and less educational background suggests that sociodemographic risk factors should be accounted for when assessing risk for higher grade prostate cancer. Identification of genomic differences associated with aggressive prostate cancer may provide insight into new targeted therapy options.

The Orthopedic Surgery Interest Group Clinical Research Showcase took place on December 3, 2019 on the campus of Wayne State University School of Medicine as the first such student-run event of its kind since the school was established in 1868 as Detroit Medical College. The Clinical Research Showcase was developed by the student leadership of the Orthopedic Surgery Interest Group (Arif Musa, Emily Lau, Martin Weaver, and Collin Bennet) with the support of the Office of Medical Student Research Programs, which was established in 2017. Medical students were encouraged to submit abstracts for poster and podium presentation with the latter taking place in the Margherio Conference Center (Figure 1). The goals of the showcase were to promote student engagement in research, develop skills such as abstract writing and poster design, receive valuable feedback from judges, and foster inter-disciplinary collaboration. These goals were based on previous articles that have documented the impact of peer-led symposia as a valuable learning experience and means promote student involvement in research endeavors [1-3.] It was explicitly stated in the call for abstracts that medical student were welcome to submit abstracts of completed, ongoing, and planned research in any medical discipline. The research showcase was supported by the generous Office of Medical Student Research whom provided dinner and funding for several students’ posters to be printed.

Résumé :
Abstract Context.—Measurement of physicians' and patients' satisfaction with laboratory services has become a standard practice in the United States, prompted by national accreditation requirements. Unlike other surveys of hospital-, outpatient care–, or physician-related activities, no ongoing, comprehensive customer satisfaction survey of anatomic pathology services is available for subscription that would allow continual benchmarking against peer laboratories. Pathologists, therefore, must often design their own local assessment tools to determine physician satisfaction in anatomic pathology. Objective.—To describe satisfaction survey design that would elicit specific information from physician customers about key elements of anatomic pathology services. Design.—The author shares his experience in biannually assessing customer satisfaction in anatomic pathology with survey tools designed at the Henry Ford Hospital, Detroit, Mich. Benchmarks for physician satisfaction, opportunities for improvement, and characteristics that correlated with a high level of physician satisfaction were identified nationally from a standardized survey tool used by 94 laboratories in the 2001 College of American Pathologists Q-Probes quality improvement program. Results.—In general, physicians are most satisfied with professional diagnostic services and least satisfied with pathology services related to poor communication. Conclusions.—A well-designed and conducted customer satisfaction survey is an opportunity for pathologists to periodically educate physician customers about services offered, manage unrealistic expectations, and understand the evolving needs of the physician customer. Armed with current information from physician customers, the pathologist is better able to strategically plan for resources that facilitate performance improvements in anatomic pathology laboratory services that align with evolving clinical needs in health care delivery.

Résumé :
AbstractSchool reform policies, such as the closure of “low-performing” schools and the competitive introduction of school choice and charters, were presented to communities of color as the fix to educational inequities and the lifeline needed for urban Black students to have a chance at a quality education and social mobility. The ways in which reforms have under-delivered on this promise, and in some cases exacerbated negative academic outcomes, particularly for Black boys, are documented. Yet, research on the experience of Black adolescent girls is sparse. We explore ways that policies aimed at delivering a school choice environment have affected daily life for Black adolescent girls. We examine this issue in the context of the Detroit metropolitan area with Black adolescent girls, reflecting on their high school education experiences that spanned a time-period of rapid transitions in the schooling environment (2014–2016) prompted by a series of school reforms in Michigan. Through in-depth interviews we found that girls sought to invest in their high school education as a path to college; yet the very reforms advanced as ways to clear this path hindered their ability to spend time on the human and social capital activities believed to be important to their academic success and social mobility. Our findings suggest advantages for those students with proximal access to high quality neighborhood schools cannot be replicated in a choice environment. There may also be health consequences of the coping strategies girls are compelled to employ to carry on under adverse educational circumstances.

Résumé :
Hit-and-run crashes often delay emergency response and may result in increasing/secondary harms/damages to the victims in the crash. This study revisited hit-and-run crashes using a geo-spatial modeling approach, specifically, Geographically Weighted Regression (GWR), to explore geo-referenced crash data. The data cover motor vehicle crashes ( N = 138,529) in Southeast Michigan including 20,813 hit-and-run crashes in 2015. This study presented the results from both traditional regression and GWR models. GWR model results can be mapped in space, and the maps offer visual insights about the spatially varying correlates of hit-and-run crashes that are not available from previous studies. Results from traditional binary logit model are generally consistent with findings in previous studies. For example, hit-and-run is more likely to occur on weekends or during nighttime (especially without street lights on). Driving under impairment (DUI) seems to increase the likelihood of hit-and-run. GWR models also uncovered spatially varying correlates of hit-and-run. For example, DUI crashes in the northwest of the Detroit metropolitan area are associated with an even greater hit-and-run likelihood than those in other parts in this area. In addition, the local socio-economic factors are included in the analysis. Results show that hit-and-run is more likely to occur in census tracts with a higher unemployment rate, a lower household income, a smaller portion of college-educated population, and a greater population density. The study demonstrates a way of making sense of geo-referenced traffic safety data. The geo-spatial modeling method is useful for prioritizing specific geographic regions/corridors for safety improvement countermeasures, and outperforms traditional modeling techniques.

Résumé :
Purpose Characteristics of surgeons and their hospitals have been associated with cancer treatments and outcomes. However, little is known about factors that are associated with referral pathways. Methods We analyzed tumor registry and survey data from women with breast cancer diagnosed in 2002 and reported to the Detroit and Los Angeles Surveillance, Epidemiology, and End Results registries (n = 1,844; response rate, 77.4%) and their attending surgeons (n = 365; response rate 80.0%). Results About half of the patients (54.3%) reported that they were referred to the surgeon by another provider or health plan; 20.3% reported that they selected the surgeon; and 21.9% reported that they both were referred and were involved in selecting the surgeon. Patients who selected the surgeon based on reputation were more likely to have received treatment from a high-volume surgeon (adjusted odds ratio [OR], 2.2; 95% CI, 1.5 to 3.4) and more likely to have been treated in an American College of Surgeons–approved cancer program or a National Cancer Institute (NCI) –designated cancer center (adjusted OR, 2.0; 95% CI, 1.3 to 3.1; adjusted OR, 3.4; 95% CI, 1.9 to 6.2, respectively). Patients who were referred to the surgeon were less likely to be treated in an NCI-designated cancer center (adjusted OR, 0.5; 95% CI, 0.3 to 0.9). Conclusion Women with breast cancer who actively participate in the surgeon selection process are more likely to be treated by more experienced surgeons and in hospitals with cancer programs. Patients should be aware that provider or health plan–based referral may not connect them with the most experienced surgeon or comprehensive practice setting in their community.

Résumé :
11012 Background: Experience and practice setting vary greatly among surgeons who treat patients with breast cancer. Yet, little is known about how these factors influence patient outcomes such as patient satisfaction with aspects of care. Methods: All women with DCIS and a 20% random sample of women with invasive breast cancer diagnosed in 2002 and reported to the Detroit and Los Angeles metropolitan SEER registries were identified and surveyed shortly after receipt of surgical treatment. Attending surgeons were identified primarily using pathology reports and mailed a survey. The final sample contained complete dyad information for 64.6% of patients (n=1,539) and 69.7% of surgeons (n=318). Logistic regression was used to examine the associations between surgeon specialization (% of practice devoted to breast disease) and treating hospital cancer program status (no program, American College of Surgeons approved cancer program, or NCI cancer center) with four domains of patient satisfaction: 1) the surgical decision, 2) decision-making process, 3) surgeon-patient relationship, and 4) surgeon-patient communication, adjusting for patient and surgeon demographics and disease stage. Results: 34.5%, 32.5% and 33.0% of patients were treated by surgeons who devoted <30% (low volume), 30%-60% (medium volume), and >60% (high volume) of their practice to breast disease. Compared to patients who were treated by low volume surgeons, patients treated by medium or high volume surgeons were more satisfied with the decision making process (medium volume: OR=1.2, 95%CI 0.8–1.7, high volume: OR=1.8, 95% CI 1.1- 2.8, p=0.036) and more satisfied with the surgeon-patient relationship (medium volume: OR=1.1, 95% CI 0.7 - 1.7, high volume: OR=2.1, 95% CI 1.1–3.7, p=0.053). Similar trends were observed for the other domains of satisfaction. Treatment setting was not associated with patient satisfaction after controlling for other factors. Conclusions: Surgeon specialization, but not treatment setting, was associated with patient satisfaction. Examining the processes underlying these associations could inform strategies to improve the quality of breast cancer care. No significant financial relationships to disclose.

Résumé :
Introduction: Increases in industrialization and manufacturing have led to worsening pollution in some components of air quality. In addition, gentrification is occurring in large cities throughout the world. As these socioeconomic and demographic changes occur, there have been no studies examining the association of gentrification with air quality. To investigate this association, we studied the trends of gentrification, changes in racial distribution and changes in air quality in each zip code of a large urban county over a 40-year period. Methods: We conducted a retrospective longitudinal study over 40 years in Wayne County, Michigan using socioeconomic and demographic data from the National Historical Geographic Information System (NHGIS) and air quality data from the United States Environmental Protection Agency (EPA). To assess gentrification, longitudinal analyses were performed to examine median household income, percentage with a college education, median housing value, median gross rent and employment level. The racial distribution was evaluated in each zip code during the time period. Gentrification was studied in relation to air quality using nonparametric 2-sample Wilcon–Mann–Whitney tests and Binomial Generalized Linear Regression models. Results: Although air quality improved overall over the 40-year period, there was a lesser rate of improvement in gentrified areas. Furthermore, gentrification was strongly associated with racial distribution. The most substantial gentrification occurred from 2010 to 2020, in which a specific cluster of adjacent zip codes in downtown Detroit experienced intense gentrification and a drop in the percentage of African-American residents. Conclusions: Gentrified areas seem to have a less pronounced improvement in air quality over time. This reduction in air quality improvement is likely associated with demolitions and the construction of new buildings, such as sporting arenas and accompanying traffic density. Gentrification is also strongly associated with an increase in non-minority residents in an area. Although previous definitions of gentrification in the literature have not included racial distribution, we suggest that future definitions should include this metric given the strong association. Minority residents who are displaced as a result of gentrification do not experience the improvements in housing quality, accessibility to healthy foods and other associations of gentrification.

Résumé :
Background/Context As of 2018, a total of 19 states allow at least one community college to offer baccalaureate degrees. Previous researchers have suggested that community college baccalaureate (CCB) adoption will lead to a host of unintended consequences, including decreases in associate degree production. Purpose/Objective/Research Question/Focus of Study This study empirically examines the impact of CCB adoption on associate degree production and adds to conversations surrounding the consequences of CCB adoption. Research Design We use a quantitative quasi-experimental research design to examine the effect of CCB adoption on associate degree production. Findings/Results When comparing adopting and non-adopting community colleges within the state of Florida, the authors find that the adoption of CCB degree programs has a positive impact on overall associate degree production, but this impact varies considerably according to the type of academic degree program. Conclusions/Recommendations Opponents of CCB legislation have argued that giving community colleges the authority to confer baccalaureate degrees will detract from the sub-baccalaureate institutional mission of community colleges, but our results suggest that the adoption of a CCB degree program is associated with an overall increase in associate degree production. Findings from this work should be an important consideration for policymakers seeking to increase baccalaureate degree production in addition to—not at the expense of—associate degree programs.

Résumé :
OBJECTIVE: To review the comparative efficacy of metformin, sulfonylureas, and insulin in the treatment of patients with type II diabetes. DATA SOURCES: Articles were identified by a MEDLINE search of articles from 1966 to 1994, using the terms metformin, sulfonylurea, chlorpropamide, glipizide, glyburide, tolazamide, tolbutamide, and insulin, published in English, French, or German. Articles also were identified from bibliographies of pertinent articles. STUDY SELECTION: With the exception of articles dealing with the pharmacology of metformin, only randomized, active, controlled studies were selected for review. DATA EXTRACTION: Effects of metformin therapy on metabolic and cardiovascular risk factors were abstracted: weight, blood pressure, total and low-density lipoprotein cholesterol, triglycerides, fasting and postprandial glucose, and glycosylated hemoglobin. DATA SYNTHESIS: Metformin is an antihyperglycemic agent with a mean bioavailability of 50–60%. It is eliminated primarily by renal filtration and secretion and has a half-life of approximately 6 hours in patients with type II diabetes. Although the half-life of metformin is prolonged in patients with renal impairment, no specific dosage adjustments have been recommended. This agent has no effect in the absence of insulin. Metformin is as effective as the sulfonylureas in treating patients with type II diabetes and has a more prominent postprandial effect than the sulfonylureas or insulin. When combined with a sulfonylurea, metformin has been shown to exert antihyperglycemic effects in addition to the sulfonylurea with which it is combined. Metformin decreases absorption of vitamin B12 and folic acid, although reported cases of megaloblastic anemia are rare. Cimetidine decreases the elimination of metformin; therefore, the manufacturer reccommends a reduced metformin dosage when these agents are combined. The most frequently reported adverse effects of metformin are gastrointestinal in nature (diarrhea, nausea, abdominal pain, and metallic taste, in decreasing order). Metformin has been used in Canada, Great Britain, and the rest of Europe for more than 30 years and was approved for use in the US in December 1994. CONCLUSIONS: Three trials comprise the Food and Drug Administration approval database (one foreign). Metformin will be most useful in managing patients with poorly controlled postprandial hyperglycemia, as its postprandial effect is much greater than that of the sulfonylureas. In contrast, sulfonylureas or insulin are more effective for managing patients with poorly controlled fasting hyperglycemia. Metformin should be considered a first-line agent, particularly in obese or hyperlipidemic patients.

Résumé :
Inflammation of the skin is the most common dermatological problem in human. The anti-inflammatory mediated responses of the skin cells provide a mechanism for combating these conditions. Annexin A1 (AnxA1) is one of the proteins that has been shown to have a potent anti-inflammatory effect. However, the effects and mechanisms of AnxA1 in skin keratinocyte and fibroblast have not been reported yet. In the current study, we hypothesized that Ac2-26, AnxA1 mimetic peptide, ameliorates inflammation and wrinkle formation in human skin cells. Therefore, we aimed to identify whether Ac2-26 has anti-inflammatory and anti-wrinkle effects in human keratinocyte (HaCaT) and fibroblast (Detroit 551) cells, respectively. Human HaCaT cells were stimulated by TNF-α/IFN-γ with or without Ac2-26, to identify the anti-inflammatory effect. Human Detroit 551 cells were treated with Ac2-26 to verify the anti-wrinkle effect. Initially, cell cytotoxicity was carried out in each cell line treated using Ac2-26 by MTT assay. Human MDA, IL-8, and procollagen secretion were detected by ELISA assay. The inflammatory chemokines were measured by qRT-PCR analysis. To demonstrate the mechanism, MAPK, NF-κB, JAK/STAT, and MMPs were analyzed by Western blotting. As a result, we identified that Ac2-26 significantly decreased the expression of TNF-α/IFN-γ-stimulated pro-inflammatory chemokines, including IL-1β, IL-6, IL-8, MDC, TARC, and TNF-α, by inhibiting the activation of MAPK, NF-κB, and JAK/STAT pathway in TNF-α/IFN-γ-stimulated HaCaT human keratinocytes. In addition, we also identified that Ac2-26 significantly induced collagen synthesis by generating pro-collagen, and suppressed collagen degradation by inhibiting the collagenase MMP-1 and MMP-8 expression. Collectively, these results suggest that Ac2-26 shows anti-inflammatory and anti-wrinkling effect. These effects may lead to the development of preventive and therapeutic application for inflammation-related skin disease and wrinkle formation.

Résumé :
This study examined relationships between student athlete experiences and career situation awareness. Participants completed the Student-Athlete Experiences Inventory (SAEI) and Student-Athlete Career Situation Inventory (SACSI). Separate exploratory factor analyses were conducted for men and women to clarify factors on the inventories, and structural models were developed for each gender. For males, results showed that (a) involvement in campus activities leads to lack of interest in career situation, (b) social involvement leads to stronger perception of career situation, and (c) library use has little effect on career situation. For females, results revealed that (a) involvement in campus activities leads to career confidence, (b) social involvement leads to perception of career barriers, and (c) library use leads to perception that sport identity need not detract from career situation.

Résumé :
Two potentially conflicting forces are currently impacting higher education. On the one hand, there is the relentless advancement of educational technology as a means of delivering, enhancing, and otherwise becoming an integral part of the teaching-learning process. On the other, there is continuing concern over the economy and quality of education being provided to college students. We propose that asynchronous communication through the use of e-mail, course Web pages, and the Internet can be adapted in such a way as to not only meet the seven principles of effective teaching but to enhance student outcomes. Without sensitive adaptation, however, such computer technology can actually detract from the educational process. Research findings and the resulting strategies for successful implementation of asynchronous communication in the classroom will be provided.

Résumé :
Little is known concerning gender and ethnic differences in attitudes about condoms or about the impact of attitudes on condom use. College students ( N = 393) rated many features of condoms. Overall, students were mildly positive about condoms, believing they offer effective protection but detract from sexual sensation. Both past condom use and future intentions to use condoms were higher among students with more favorable global attitudes toward condoms and more favorable specific beliefs about the interpersonal dynamics of condom use. Future intentions to use condoms were also associated with greater worry about sexually transmitted diseases and fewer previous sexual partners. Women were more favorable toward condoms than men. Gender differences also emerged in the predictors of condom use. Implications for assessing condom attitudes and for increasing condom use among young heterosexuals are discussed.

Résumé :
Background: A social-network is often a kind of social media that is the dedicated website or application. It can enhance, detract from, or magnify the participant’s professional image. Facebook could be of benefit in learning process This article evaluates the trial of introducing Facebook, as an educational tool for second-year medical students in the College of Medicine [The Respiratory Module], King Abdulaziz University.Methods: Introducing Facebook is directed to second-year medical students in the College of Medicine [The Respiratory Module]. A 20-point questionnaire was created and distributed online. It was designed to describe students' perception towards introducing Facebook as an educational tool. The collected data were analyzed with descriptive statistics.Results: The results reveal an overall good perception score regarding most of the questionnaire items. The lowest scores were found in two items only; the role of Facebook to improve the students' writing skills as well as the proposed use of Facebook and other social networks for teaching by most of the staff members. The overall students' satisfaction index satisfaction (77%). Moreover, matching the overall students' satisfaction index to the overall success rate shows a high success rate (99%) that is matched with 77% satisfaction index.Conclusions: From the current study, it could be concluded that professional use of Facebook as an educational tool is associated with good student's perception, satisfaction index and better academic performance. So, Facebook can be used and considered as one of the most efficient online learning community tool.

Résumé :
The analysis of language errors has been a beneficial exercise in academia and research, particularly for individual learners who use English as a second or foreign language. This study aimed to identify and classify grammatical errors in verb forms use among engineering students' academic writing tasks. It pursued one specific objective of categorizing errors in verb forms. The study involved 133 students and 15 teachers, who contributed to data collection through essay tests and questionnaires. Analytical methods included document analysis, deductive thematic analysis, and descriptive statistics were used to gather useful linguistic facts on the issue. The grammatical errors discovered encompassed all five verb forms errors and were categorized as omission, addition, misformation, and misordering based on students' essays and teachers' evaluation of the essays. Thus, writing errors detract the reader from the piece's overall readability with poor quality of writing and blurs written communication. Therefore, it is necessary to pinpoint the students' verb-form errors in order to provide them with the required foundational knowledge to write flawlessly. Teachers should be on the alert of grammatical verb forms errors when assessing their students’ writings and ensure they correctly use the verb forms.

Résumé :
Purpose – The purpose of this paper is twofold: first, to extend existing knowledge on the nature, reach, causes and consequences of judgementoring; second, to present a new framework for mentoring beginner teachers that has the potential to forestall and combat judgementoring, and enable the full potential of institution-based mentoring to be realised. Design/methodology/approach – The paper draws on a thematic analysis of: previously published findings from three empirical studies undertaken between 2003 and 2015; new data from two empirical studies undertaken between 2012 and 2016; and recent literature (2013-2016) on judgementoring. Findings – The paper provides further evidence of the nature, reach, causes and consequences of judgementoring as a national and international phenomenon. In doing so, it extends previous knowledge about the conditions that enhance or detract from the successful enactment of beginner teacher mentoring. Practical implications – The findings presented have implications for the work of education policymakers, school and college leaders, mentor trainers, mentors and others concerned with enhancing mentorship and effectively supporting the professional learning, development and well-being of beginning teachers. Originality/value – The paper presents ONSIDE Mentoring as an original, research-informed framework for mentoring beginner teachers. The framework may also be applicable to other contexts, especially for the mentoring of early career professionals.

Résumé :
Abstract Background: The COVID-19 pandemic has forced a fast change to new teaching approaches based on online education. Problem-based learning (PBL) was one of the modified teaching strategies. The current study sought to examine faculty perceptions of virtual versus traditional PBL during the COVID-19 pandemic at a Saudi medical college. Methods: This is a retrospective cross-sectional study conducted at King Saud University’s College of Medicine. We compared the perceptions of faculty members who facilitated traditional face-to-face PBL in 2019–2020 and virtual PBL in 2020–2021. An online survey with demographic and practice data was distributed. The faculty’s perception of PBL facilitation, student learning, and overall satisfaction was investigated using a 5-degree Likert scale: 15 items grouped into three main areas. All of the questions were written in a way that compares traditional and virtual PBL. Mean scores were determined for all parts, and the findings were reported as mean standard deviation, with scores of 3 and above considered positive, and scores of <3 considered negative. The data were analyzed with SPSS version 25.0. Results: In the study period, 57 faculty members facilitating PBL replied to the survey (response rate 67.85%). There were no gender variations in the representation of participants (male 56.1%, female 43.9%), and they come from a variety of basic and clinical departments. The majority of participants (91.3%) have more than 2 years of PBL facilitation experience, and 64.2% have received training in both virtual and traditional PBL facilitation. The faculty assessment of facilitating virtual PBL was favorable as overall satisfaction, with the mean of the components in the satisfaction section being 3.67. In terms of facilitation preferences, we discovered that despite the amount of effort involved in facilitating traditional PBL sessions (mean = 3.47), their motivation to facilitate traditional PBL was higher than that of virtual PBL (mean = 3.33). Faculty perceptions of students’ learning in PBL were more traditional, with the mean of the items in this section (such as students’ motivation, participation, and group dynamics) being higher (3.616). Conclusions: The faculty’s satisfaction with their abilities to properly facilitate virtual PBL sessions did not detract from their motivation to be in direct personal interaction with students during PBL sessions. To ensure faculty care about students’ learning in virtual PBL, their perception had to be correlated to their learning outcomes.

Résumé :
Abstract Background: Treatment-related financial burden, or financial toxicity, can detract from mental health and quality of life and can lead patients to alter their care to offset treatment costs. In doing so, these patients compromise adherence which can contribute to disparities (Zafar Oncologist 2013). Among cancers, multiple myeloma treatment is particularly costly due to use of expensive, novel agents, often in combination, and for extended durations. One study found that patients with myeloma frequently reported financial toxicity and used coping strategies, including borrowing money or prematurely stopping treatment (Huntington Lancet Haematology 2015). In this study, we aim to measure financial toxicity in a cohort of patients with myeloma and examine relationships between financial toxicity and demographic, socioeconomic, and clinical factors. We further aim to follow this cohort longitudinally to examine the course of financial toxicity. Methods: We contacted individuals with multiple myeloma who had participated in our institutional banking study between 2018 and 2021. Patients who agreed to participate were sent a questionnaire which included the 11-item Comprehensive Score for financial Toxicity (COST). Scores range from 0-44 with lower scores indicating higher financial toxicity. Follow-up surveys will be completed after 3 and 6 months. This analysis included data from the initial survey only; follow-up survey data will be available at time of presentation. Results: At time of analysis, 234 patients were contacted and 122 (52%) had returned the survey. Ninety-four completed the COST at least 6 months following myeloma diagnosis and were included in the analysis. The median age at time of survey was 68 (range 37-88). The majority were Caucasian (95%), male (70%), college-educated (62%), and had left the workforce (70%). Seventy-two percent of patients were receiving first-line treatment for MM while 28% had relapsed or refractory disease. The median time from myeloma diagnosis to survey completion was 29 months (range 7-159 months). The median COST score was 28 (range 7-44); those below the median were considered to have higher financial toxicity. Patient characteristics are detailed in Table 1. Notably, 4 of the 5 African-American participants were in the higher financial toxicity group. The mean COST score for African-Americans was 18.4 (SD 8.0) compared to 27.7 (SD 9.2) for Caucasians (p = 0.03). In addition, those in the higher financial toxicity group were less likely to be college educated (52% versus 72%; p &lt;0.05) and the mean COST score for college educated patients was 28.9 (SD 9.3) compared to 24.1 (SD 8.7) for those without (p = 0.02). Interestingly, patients off treatment (n =11) had lower COST scores than patients receiving treatment (mean 21.5 [SD 9.6] compared to 27.9 [SD 9.1]; p = 0.03). Eighty-four patients had complete data and were included in the outcome analysis. Many trends were observed although none were statistically significant. Those with private insurance were more likely to be in the higher financial toxicity group. Those with college degrees or with higher socioeconomic status, approximated using the median household income from each patient's home census tract from the 2019 American Community Survey, were less likely to be in the higher financial toxicity group. Those receiving intravenous myeloma treatment were less likely to be in the higher financial toxicity group compared to those on oral only regimens or no treatment. Results from the analysis are detailed in Table 2. Conclusion: In this study, we observed relationships between demographics, socioeconomic status, and myeloma clinical characteristics with scores on the COST. However, none were independently associated with having a score below the median. Our findings are limited by sample composition, which was skewed toward patients who were Caucasian, college educated, and retired. In addition, because there is no established threshold for financial toxicity on the COST measure, we used our sample's median score; however, our median was higher than that of prior studies and this may have impacted the results. Nevertheless, these preliminary results show financial toxicity is a complex outcome that is difficult to predict. Our longitudinal data, which will be available at time of presentation, will build on these findings to assess the trajectory of financial toxicity over time. Figure 1 Figure 1.
