Summary: This article presents seven statistical procedures that increase transparency in data analysis, aiming to promote transparent practices in social and behavioral sciences. These procedures highlight common ground among data analysts from different schools and find inspiration in the ethos of science.

Summary: This article describes a stepwise treatment approach for managing ascites in patients with liver cirrhosis. The approach is based on the Japanese clinical practice guidelines and includes sodium restriction, albumin treatment, diuretic treatment, and other options such as tolvaptan and large volume paracentesis. Adopting this treatment approach may improve patient outcomes.

Summary: An enantioselective total synthesis of sporothriolide, a bioactive furofurandione-type fungal metabolite, has been achieved in a 21% overall yield from a commercially available beta,gamma-unsaturated carboxylic acid via seven steps. The key steps of this synthesis include a highly diastereoselective Michael addition of a chiral oxazolidinone derivative to a nitro olefin, the exploitation of an aromatic ring as a masked carboxylic acid functionality, and the base-promoted elimination of nitrous acid to install the a-methylene lactone unit of sporothriolide in the final step.

Summary: Microgenia, or a weak chin, is a significant factor in facial disharmony. While patients with severe microgenia or other orthognathic problems may not be suitable for chin augmentation alone, implant-based chin augmentation can benefit those with mild to moderate microgenia. Assessing the chin is crucial for planning facial aesthetic procedures, and the authors present their efficient and safe seven-step approach to chin augmentation.

Summary: Evidence-based practice has become dominant in the field of behavioral health and social services in North America. It legitimizes professional actors, methods, and organizations while also imposing limits on them. Various actors and institutions, including policy makers, insurers, and charitable foundations, are involved in the establishment and legitimization of evidence-based practice, which is closely intertwined with political and economic discourses.

Summary: The total syntheses of punicafolin and macaranganin were achieved in seven steps each, starting from commercial alpha-D-glucose. The key features include sequential site-selective introduction of galloyl groups and stereodivergent construction of the 3,6-HHDP bridge without using protective groups for glucose, resulting in extremely short-step syntheses of natural glycosides with a molecular weight of 938.

Summary: The study found that the step-by-step and case-based learning method in otoendoscopy teaching was significantly more effective than the traditional lecture-based learning method. Physicians trained with the SBS & CBL method demonstrated higher proficiency in otoendoscopic anatomy, professional knowledge, and surgical skills.

Summary: This study aims to describe a case study that uses a conceptual model to guide the process of identifying and de-adopting low-value clinical practices. The study found a low-value practice within a pediatric infusion center and used the De-adoption Process Synthesis Model to guide the de-adoption of this practice. Nurses are best positioned to identify, assess, and prioritize low-value practices.

Summary: The solidification of AgCo, AgNi, and AgCu nanodroplets in the size range of 2-8 nm was studied using molecular dynamics simulations. Despite the surface segregation of Ag in the bulk solid, the simulations revealed clear differences in the solidification pathways. AgCo and AgNi separate in the liquid phase and solidify close to equilibrium, while AgCu remains in a kinetically trapped state and solidifies in one step. An analytical model was used to rationalize these differences and analyze the size dependence of solidification temperatures.

Summary: Research has shown a positive association between physical activity and creative thinking, with both single bouts of walking and regular walking being linked to more original ideas. Positive affect partially mediated the relationship between acute physical activity and figural creativity.

Summary: This study aims to provide an overview of nuclear medicine research by reviewing selected papers from the Annals of Nuclear Medicine in 2019, climbing the Evidence-Based Medicine pyramid. Pre-clinical research focuses on novel molecular targets in cancer, while clinical investigations cover various applications including cardiological, neurological, infectious, and oncological using SPECT and PET modalities. Investigator-initiated trials play a central role compared to industry-sponsored trials, and challenges and future directions in nuclear medicine research are discussed.

Summary: The brain is a common site of metastatic disease for patients with advanced melanoma, with treatment approaches including surgery, radiotherapy, and systemic therapy. Management of melanoma brain metastases should involve a multidisciplinary team and consider optimal combinations and sequencing of treatments. It is important to establish appropriate guidelines for the management of melanoma brain metastases and update them regularly as new treatment options become available.

Summary: The paper introduces a seven-step method to reliably determine double layer capacitance using scan rate-dependent cyclic voltammetry, and applies it to two different systems for validation. Results show that neglecting any step leads to significant deviations in the results, and suggests a more suitable regression model for determining double layer capacitance.
