OBJECTIVES/GOALS: We adapted the Serious Illness Care Program (SICP), an evidence-based intervention designed to promote early serious illness conversation, to be delivered via telehealth for older patients with acute myeloid leukemia and myelodysplastic syndromes. The purpose of this study is to assess the feasibility and usability of the adapted intervention. METHODS/STUDY POPULATION: We are conducting a single-arm pilot study of an adapted SICP that is delivered via telehealth for older patients with AML or MDS (>=60 years) and their caregivers (if available). The adapted SICP includes: 1) Patient preparation pamphlet: sent to patient prior the visit with their clinician, 2) Geriatric assessment: completed by study team and provided to clinician prior to their visit with the patient, 3) A 30-60 minute telehealth visit with their primary oncologist or oncology advance practitioner, 4) Serious Illness Conversation Guide (SICG): used by the clinician during the visit to elicit patient values, 5) Family guide: provided to patient following their visit to help patient’s share their values with their family, 6) Electronic medical record note template for clinicians to document their visit the patient. RESULTS/ANTICIPATED RESULTS: We hypothesize that the adapted SICP intervention will be feasible and usable. We will assess feasibility based on retention rate (percent of patients who consent and complete the visit); >80% is considered feasible. Usability will be assessed using the telehealth usability questionnaire; an average score of >5 is considered usable. Other measures include psychological health, advance care planning engagement, quality of life, and disease understanding. We plan to enroll 20 patients in this study. To date, 11 patients have consented to participate, 10 patients have scheduled SICP visits, 9 patients have completed their visits, 7 patients have completed post-intervention qualitative interviews, and 4 patients have completed post-intervention surveys. DISCUSSION/SIGNIFICANCE: The adapted telehealth-based SICP may promote early serious illness conversation, patient-reported outcomes, and end-of-life experience for older patients with AML and MDS. Results from this study will be used to inform development of clinical trials testing the impact of the adapted SICP on patient- and caregiver-reported outcomes.

Despite new arguments by Tankersley and Weeks that we misinterpreted petroglyph engravings and ignored site formation processes at the Red Bird River Shelter in Kentucky (15CY52), we remain convinced that there is no evidence for Cherokee Syllabary writing at the site. The petroglyphs are clearly not symbols present in any version of the Cherokee Syllabary. There is no empirical evidence for any site formation processes that have altered the shelter or its petroglyphs in the ways they suggest. There is still no evidence that Sequoyah ever spent any time in the vicinity of Red Bird River Shelter.

This article reanalyzes petroglyphs from the Red Bird River Shelter (15CY52), a small sandstone shelter in Kentucky. In 2009–2013, it was claimed that some of the carvings at the site represented the earliest known examples of Cherokee Syllabary writing, dating to the first two decades of the nineteenth century. It was also suggested that Sequoyah, the Cherokee artist and intellectual who invented the Cherokee Syllabary in the early nineteenth century, had made these petroglyph versions during a visit to see his white paternal family living in Kentucky. Our reanalysis categorically contests this interpretation. We do not see Cherokee Syllabary writing at Red Bird River Shelter. We do not believe that historical evidence supports the notion that Sequoyah had white relatives in Kentucky whom he visited there at the time required for him to have authored those petroglyphs. We also believe that this account misrepresents Sequoyah's Cherokee identity by tying him to white relatives for whom there is no historical warrant. We argue that the Red Bird River Shelter is a significant precontact petroglyph site with several panels of line-and-groove petroglyphs overlain by numerous examples of modern graffiti, but there is no Sequoyan Syllabary inscription there.

Copper-alumina and copper-silica aerogels formed by impregnation of a copper(II) salt into an alumina or silica wet gel before supercritical extraction have been found to contain copper in multiple oxidation states: Cu0, Cu+1 and Cu+2. These aerogels are effective at catalyzing the reduction of NO and the oxidation of HCs and CO under conditions similar to those found in automotive three way catalysts. In this work we have developed a preparation method incorporating Cu0, Cu+1 and Cu+2 nanoparticles directly into silica aerogels. Nanoparticles in the form of (a) Cu0 nanorods (100 nm diameter, 10-20 μm length); (b) Cu+1 nanoparticles (350 nm diameter); and (c) Cu+2 nanoparticles (25-55 nm diameter) were added (0.5-15% by weight) to separate precursor mixtures consisting of tetramethyl orthosilicate, methanol, water and ammonia. These precursor mixtures were then processed using a rapid supercritical extraction (RSCE) method to form aerogels. The resulting aerogels show evidence of nanoparticles dispersed throughout the silica aerogel structure. Addition of Cu+1 and Cu+2 nanoparticles decreases the surface area of the aerogels significantly. X-Ray diffraction shows that regardless of initial oxidation state of the nanoparticles, crystalline Cu0 is detected after RSCE processing to 290 °C. Following heat treatment at 700 °C, crystalline Cu+2 is detected. The copper containing silica aerogels are found to be catalytically active with light-off temperatures (50% conversion) for NO and CO at 400 °C in three-way catalytic applications.

Studies on gaze allocation during sentence production have recently begun to implement cross-linguistic analyses in the investigation of visual and linguistic processing. The underlying assumption is that the aspects of a scene that attract attention prior to articulation are, in part, linked to the specific linguistic system and means used for expression. The present study concerns naturalistic, dynamic scenes (video clips) showing causative events (agent acting on an object) and exploits grammatical differences in the domain of verbal aspect, and the way in which the status of an event (a specific vs. habitual instance of an event) is encoded in English and German. Fixations in agent and action areas of interest were timelocked to utterance onset, and we focused on the pre-articulatory time span to shed light on sentence planning processes, involving message generation and scene conceptualization. Findings are threefold: (i) English speakers mark the status of an event as specific in relation to the action, with progressive aspect marking on the verb in each utterance. German speakers do so by elaborating specific characteristics of the agent; (ii) participants display significantly different gaze allocation patterns to agent and action regions although the sentences produced in both languages follow the same subject−verb word order; and (iii) the analysis of gaze patterns during sentence production given dynamic scenes provide complementary results from a more naturalistic paradigm, to those obtained in studies with still images.

Background
Rates of self-harm are high and have recently increased. This trend and the repetitive nature of self-harm pose a significant challenge to mental health services.
AimsTo determine the efficacy of a structured group problem-solving skills training (PST) programme as an intervention approach for self-harm in addition to treatment as usual (TAU) as offered by mental health services.
MethodA total of 433 participants (aged 18–64 years) were randomly assigned to TAU plus PST or TAU alone. Assessments were carried out at baseline and at 6-week and 6-month follow-up and repeated hospital-treated self-harm was ascertained at 12-month follow-up.
ResultsThe treatment groups did not differ in rates of repeated self-harm at 6-week, 6-month and 12-month follow-up. Both treatment groups showed significant improvements in psychological and social functioning at follow-up. Only one measure (needing and receiving practical help from those closest to them) showed a positive treatment effect at 6-week (P = 0.004) and 6-month (P = 0.01) follow-up. Repetition was not associated with waiting time in the PST group.
ConclusionsThis brief intervention for self-harm is no more effective than treatment as usual. Further work is required to establish whether a modified, more intensive programme delivered sooner after the index episode would be effective.

Using eye-tracking as a window on cognitive processing, this study investigates language effects on attention to motion events in a non-verbal task. We compare gaze allocation patterns by native speakers of German and Modern Standard Arabic (MSA), two languages that differ with regard to the grammaticalization of temporal concepts. Findings of the non-verbal task, in which speakers watch dynamic event scenes while performing an auditory distracter task, are compared to gaze allocation patterns which were obtained in an event description task, using the same stimuli. We investigate whether differences in the grammatical aspectual systems of German and MSA affect the extent to which endpoints of motion events are linguistically encoded and visually processed in the two tasks. In the linguistic task, we find clear language differences in endpoint encoding and in the eye-tracking data (attention to event endpoints) as well: German speakers attend to and linguistically encode endpoints more frequently than speakers of MSA. The fixation data in the non-verbal task show similar language effects, providing relevant insights with regard to the language-and-thought debate. The present study is one of the few studies that focus explicitly on language effects related to grammatical concepts, as opposed to lexical concepts.

This paper investigates the use of aspectual constructions in Dutch, Norwegian, and German, languages in which aspect marking that presents events explicitly as ongoing, is optional. Data were elicited under similar conditions with native speakers in the three countries. We show that while German speakers make insignificant use of aspectual constructions, usage patterns in Norwegian and Dutch present an interesting case of overlap, as well as differences, with respect to a set of factors that attract or constrain the use of different constructions. The results indicate that aspect marking is grammaticalizing in Dutch, but there are no clear signs of a similar process in Norwegian.*

Summary
Introduction
One of the central questions in cognitive linguistics concerns human cognition and the way dynamic situations are structured for expression. When language is used to convey information on experience, it is far from being a mirror of what was actually perceived. Representations are based on information stored in memory and retrieved when construing a reportable event in the language used. Taking the linguistic output as a point of reference, the process is selective, perspective-driven and interpretative. Crosslinguistic studies of event representation show that the perspectives chosen can differ, depending on the expressive means available to the speaker, and the term ‘event representation’ is used in the following to relate to event construal at this level. Many languages require speakers to direct attention to temporal contours of events, for example, as in aspect-marking languages such as Modern Standard Arabic, where events are viewed and encoded as to whether they are completed, ongoing, or relate to a specific phase (inceptive, terminative, etc.). When talking about events, speakers may also have to accommodate relational systems that include reference to the time of speech, since formal means of this kind allow us to say whether an event occurred in the near or distant past, for example, or just now. An assertion such as the lights went out when the dog barked is grounded in context, in temporal terms, since the time for which the assertion holds has been specified as preceding the time of utterance.

Detailed interviews were conducted with 1523 married professional and managerial employees of a major US corporation to test associations of acute and chronic occupational and domestic stress with DSM-III-R major depression and current depressive symptoms. After controlling for demographic and clinical risk factors, both sources of stress were significantly associated with the two measures of depression. On the other hand, neither the demographic and clinical risk factors, nor several psychosocial characteristics (social support, sense of mastery and organizational commitment) moderated the relationship between stress and depression.

Summary
In recent years Myanmar has seen great changes in society, politics and economics. The opportunities presented to the people of Myanmar as it emerges to engage with the rest of the world have been extraordinary. Like a chrysalis Myanmar is transitioning from what has been a constrained and tightly controlled society and is now emerging into a new, more expansive world. Such transitions always present challenges and extend opportunities. Education is often a critical element in the success of these transitions.
Education is fundamental and integral to many of the changes which are occurring in Myanmar – both in its capacity to increase knowledge that is relevant to all aspects of life and also to allow Myanmar to engage with the wider world. The individuals experiencing this transformation within the higher education sector need to have access to the principles and research insights from scholarship outside Myanmar to successfully develop policy, science, law, agriculture, library science, health, medicine, economics and other disciplines. Providing open and professionally constructed access to such knowledge underpins the principles which guide the library and information professions around the world.
Library and information studies is a fundamental part of this education revolution and the education and training of qualified library and information professionals has been viewed internationally as a critical element in information access. Education for this discipline was established in Myanmar at the University of Yangon in the 1971 at the height of the development of schools of librarianship worldwide. As with much tertiary education in former British colonies and Commonwealth countries the model adopted was that of British education (see Carroll 2013) with both undergraduate and postgraduate professional entry. This remains the prevailing model. First led by U Thaw Kaung, Chief Librarian of the Universities’ Central Library, until 1997 the courses evolved primarily on a print-based culture (University of Yangon 2018). The University is a leader in library studies in Myanmar, consistent with its role as the premier research university in the country. The Department of Library and Information Studies has expanded in 2019 to include eighteen academics, supporting students studying undergraduate and postgraduate, including Masters and PhD, programs. The Department is the largest library education department in Myanmar.

Even though viability for printed bacteria has been demonstrated, the effect of thermal ink-jet printing on cellular ultrastructures is unknown. Retention of viability is useful when colony growth is desired. However, when bacteria are isolated from a human infection they often exhibit characteristics that can be lost when grown in standard laboratory cultures. Ideally, individual bacteria from an infection could be printed and studied without extensive culturing or processing.
We have investigated the gram-positive organism Staphylococcus aureus and the extracellular polymeric ultrastructure that encapsulates the bacterial cell. The capsule is composed of cell-wall associated polysaccharides. Our goal was to use ink-jet printing to spatially control the placement of S. aureus, without affecting the extracellular ultrastructure. Observation by scanning electron microscopy comparing the integrity and uniformity of encapsulated S. aureus before and after thermal ink-jet printing suggests that the capsule is disrupted, possibly completely removed, during printing.

Discovering a theory of change for health promotion in small- and medium-sized enterprises highlights important lessons about how successful workplace health interventions work and the conditions conducive to positive outcomes for ‘hard to reach groups’. In the evaluation of targeted health promotion initiatives carried out by the Workwell project in Sandwell, a theory of change has emerged that indicates the need for a sensitive understanding of the contexts of interventions and the importance of developing mechanisms appropriate to local conditions and stakeholder expectations.

The timed ‘Up & Go’ test (TUG) is a test of basic or functional mobility in adults which has rarely been used in children. Functional mobility was defined for this study as an individual's ability to manoeuvre his or her body capably and independently to accomplish everyday tasks. Reliability and validity of TUG scores were examined in 176 children without physical disabilities (94 males, 82 females; mean age 5y 9mo [SD 1y 8mo]; range 3 to 9y) and in 41 young people with physical disabilities due to cerebral palsy or spina bifida (20 males, 21 females; mean age 8y 11mo [SD 4y 3mo], range 3 to 19y). Mean TUG score for children without physical disability was 5.9s (SD 1.3). Reliability of the TUG test was high, with intraclass correlation coefficients (ICC) of 0.89 within session, and 0.83 for test–retest reliability. Mean score of the group aged 3 to 5 years was significantly higher (6.7s SD 1.2) than that of the older group (5.1s, SD 0.8; p=0.001). Scores in the younger group reduced significantly over a 5-month follow-up period (p=0.001), indicating that the TUG was responsive to change. Within-session reliability of the TUG in young people with disabilities was very high (ICC=0.99). There were significant differences in TUG scores between children classified at levels I, II, and III of the Gross Motor Function Classification System (p=0.001). TUG scores showed a moderate negative correlation with scores on the Standing and Walking dimensions of the Gross Motor Function Measure (n=22, rho=–0.52, p=0.012). There was no significant difference in TUG scores between typically developing male and female children. The TUG can be used reliably in children as young as 3 years using the protocol described in this paper. It is a meaningful, quick, and practical objective measure of functional mobility. With further investigation, the TUG is potentially useful as a screening test, an outcome measure in intervention studies for young people with disabilities, a measure of disability, and as a measure of change in functional mobility over time.
