Prognostic factors affecting the ruptured intracranial aneurysms: A 9-year multicenter study in Fujian, China

Background: A multicenter retrospective study was conducted to explore the factors affecting short-term prognosis and long-term outcomes of intracranial aneurysms (IA) rupture. Further, the prognosis prediction model was constructed based on survival analysis, contributing to the development of prevention strategies for aneurysmal subarachnoid hemorrhage. Methods: Data of 1280 patients with IA rupture were gathered between 2014 and 2022 in Fujian, China. Logistic regression was implemented to study the short-term prognostic factors of IA rupture. Survival analysis of 911 patients among them was performed to explore the long-term outcome status by Cox risk assessment. Nomogram prognosis models were constructed using R software. Results: The findings displayed that blood type O (OR = 1.79; P = 0.019), high systolic pressure (OR = 1.01; P < 0.001), Glasgow Coma score (GCS) 9–12 (OR = 2.73; P = 0.022), GCS < 9 (OR = 3.222; P = 0.006), diabetes (OR = 2.044; P = 0.040), and high white blood cell count (OR = 1.059, P = 0.040) were core influencing factors for poor short-term prognosis. Survival analysis revealed that age > 60 years (HR = 2.87; P = 0.001), hypertension (HR = 1.95; P = 0.001), conservative (HR = 6.89; P < 0.001) and endovascular treatment (HR = 2.20; P = 0.001), multiple ruptured IAs (HR = 2.37; P = 0.01), Fisher 3 (HR = 1.68; P = 0.09), Fisher 4 (HR = 2.75; P = 0.001), and Hunt-Hess 3 (HR = 0.55; P = 0.05) were the major risk factors for terrible long-term outcomes. Conclusions: People over 60 years with characteristics of type O blood, high systolic pressure, diabetes, high white blood cell count, and onset GCS < 12 will have more complications and a worse short-term prognosis. Those aged > 60 years with hypertension, conservative and endovascular treatment, multiple ruptured IAs, Fisher ≥ 3 and Hunt-Hess 3 have a greater risk of poor long-term prognosis.

The rare presence of gametophytes in the studied material coincide with the uncommon occurrence in natural populations.
Significant bomb C enrichment in deep soil: a previously unrecognized decadal C pool?

Globally, soil organic matter contains approximately 1500 Pg C to 1 m soil depth and 2300 Pg C to 3 m depth—more than biomass and atmospheric CO2 combined. Efforts to account for the effects of land-use or vegetation change on soil organic carbon (SOC) stocks normally limit their focus to the upper 20–30 cm of the soil profile, yet 0–20 cm SOC stocks are only 42% of 0–1 m SOC. Accounting for only the upper 20–30 cm of SOC has been justifiable based on the assumption that deeper SOC is unreactive since it displays C-derived mean residence times of hundreds or thousands of years. We report that, at depths of 40–100 cm, a well-studied New Zealand soil displays progressive enrichment of over 200‰ across samplings in 1959, 1974 and 2002, indicating incorporation of bomb C during the last 40 years. This pattern of deep C enrichment—previously observed in two well-drained California grassland soils— suggests that roots and/or dissolved organic C (DOC) transport contribute to a Decadally-Reactive Deep Soil C (DRDSC) pool. This SOC pool can react to land-use or vegetation change.

Larval Fish Community in the Northwestern Iberian Upwelling System during the Summer Period

The Galician shelf (northwestern Iberian Peninsula) is a highly dynamic area with an important multi-species fisheries industry that exploits resources from several habitats, characterized by being not only highly diverse, rich, and productive but also seasonally and interannually variable. Early life stages of different species are distributed throughout the year, with fluctuating abundances and community composition. Likewise, the influence of environmental factors and processes on larval production and survival remains unknown. Sampling was carried out in July 2012, and all the larvae obtained were identified to establish the specific composition of the community in a summer upwelling scenario. The results show no zonation in the species distribution, a consequence of the mixing effects of the upwelling and eddies, with high diversity but low abundance, which render in a slight predominance of a few species. Due to the dependence of planktonic populations on upwelling events, which was not highly pronounced in 2012, we cannot conclude that this was a typical conformation of the Galician summer larval fish community, but it is a first approach to comprehend the community composition.
Evaluation of open source webvulnerability scanners and theirtechniques used to find SQL injection and cross-site scriptingvulnerabilities

Both for its simplicity and efficiency to search for the most critical security vulnerabilities that could exist within a web application, a web vulnerability scanner is a popular tool among any company that develops a web application. With the existence of many different scanners that are available to use, one is unlikely the same as the other and the results attained when evaluating these scanners in relation to each other are often not the same. In this thesis, three different open source web vulnerability scanners are evaluated and analysed based on their ability to find SQL injection and cross-site scripting vulnerabilities. The scanners were used on several open source deliberately broken web applications that acted as benchmarks. The benchmarks that caused much diversity in the results from the scanners were further investigated. When analysing the scanners based on the results, both the actual results were analysed on what caused the diversity but most of all the source code of the scanners were explored and investigated. It could be found that the techniques used by the scanners were essentially similar but contained several minor differences that caused the diversity in the results. Most differences were dependant on the variation of the predefined payloads injected by the scanners, but it could also be found that the approaches used to determine if a vulnerability was detected or not could vary as well. The finalised result concluded in a report that reveals and demonstrates the different approaches that any web vulnerability scanner could use and the limitations of them.
Counting quadrant walks via Tutte's invariant method

In the 1970s, William Tutte developed a clever algebraic approach, based on certain ``invariants'', to solve a functional equation that arises in the enumeration of properly colored triangulations. The enumeration of plane lattice walks confined to the first quadrant is governed by similar equations, and has led in the past 15 years to a rich collection of attractive results dealing with the nature (algebraic, D-finite or not) of the associated generating function, depending on the set of allowed steps, taken in $\{-1, 0,1\}^2$. We first adapt Tutte's approach to prove (or reprove) the algebraicity of all quadrant models known or conjectured to be algebraic. This includes Gessel's famous model, and the first proof ever found for one model with weighted steps. To be applicable, the method requires the existence of two rational functions called invariant and decoupling function respectively. When they exist, algebraicity follows almost automatically. Then, we move to a complex analytic viewpoint that has already proved very powerful, leading in particular to integral expressions of the generating function in the non-D-finite cases, as well as to proofs of non-D-finiteness. We develop in this context a weaker notion of invariant. Now all quadrant models have invariants, and for those that have in addition a decoupling function, we obtain integral-free expressions of the generating function, and a proof that this series is D-algebraic (that is, satisfies polynomial differential equations).
Universal Augmentation Schemes for Network Navigability: Overcoming The

Augmented graphs were introduced for the purpose of analyzing the " six degrees of separation between individuals " observed experimentally by the sociologist Standley Mil-gram in the 60's. Formally, an augmented graph is a pair (G, ϕ) where G is a graph, and ϕ is a collection of probability distributions {ϕu, u ∈ V (G)}. Every node u ∈ V (G) is given an extra link, called a long range link, pointing to some node v, called the long range contact of u. The head v of this link is chosen at random by Pr{u → v} = ϕu(v). In augmented graphs, greedy routing is the oblivious routing process in which every intermediate node chooses among all its neighbors (including its long range contact) the one that is closest to the target according to the distance measured in the underlying graph G, and forwards to it. Roughly, augmented graphs aim at modeling the structure of social networks, while greedy routing aims at modeling the searching procedure applied in Milgram's experiment. Our objective is to design efficient universal augmentation schemes, i.e., augmentation schemes that give to any graph G a collection of probability distributions ϕ such that greedy routing in (G, ϕ) is fast. It is known that the uniform scheme ϕunif is a universal scheme ensuring that, for any n-nodePair ".

Structure and U–Pb dating of the Saint-Arnac pluton and the Ansignan charnockite (Agly Massif): a cross-section from the upper to the middle crust of the Variscan Eastern Pyrenees

In the Agly Massif (Pyrenees), two Variscan plutons, the Saint-Arnac pluton and the Ansignan charnockite, intrude different levels of a c. 10 km thick crustal section. The Saint-Arnac pluton intrudes through upper crustal rocks and the Ansignan charnockite cuts mid-crustal country-rocks. A structural study of these plutons based on the anisotropy of magnetic susceptibility technique, combined with a kinematic study of the country-rocks, shows that the structures and emplacement modes of the plutons are compatible with those of the other plutons of the Pyrenees emplaced during the D2 transpressive phase. U–Pb dating on zircons from the Saint-Arnac pluton yields a 308.3 ± 1.2 Ma age for a diorite and a 303.6 ± 4.7 Ma age for a granodiorite. The charnockite was previously dated at 315 Ma. The emplacement ages of these two intrusions are thus separated by at least 5 Ma. First, numerous sills and laccoliths, such as the Ansignan laccolith, were injected in the middle crust, and this induced heating and thickening. Subsequently, the large Saint-Arnac pluton was injected in the upper crust at the beginning of formation of a gneissic dome.
Temperature, grain size, and chemical controls on polycrystal anelasticity over a broad frequency range extending into the seismic range

Recent experimental studies have shown that anelasticity of polycrystalline materials is subject to the Maxwell frequency (fM) scaling: Q−1(f/fM). However, the applicability of this scaling to the seismic waves has not been guaranteed because experimental frequencies normalized to fM of the laboratory samples are usually much lower than the seismic frequencies normalized to fM in the upper mantle (106≤f/fM≤109). In this study, by using polycrystalline organic borneol as an analogue to mantle rock, we measured anelasticity up to f/fM≃108 and found that the Maxwell frequency scaling is not fully applicable at f/fM>104. A closer examination showed that each of the relaxation spectra obtained under various temperature, grain size, and chemical composition can be represented by the superposition of a background dissipation subject to the Maxwell frequency scaling and a peak dissipation centered at f/fM≃103. Significant increases of the peak amplitude and width with increasing temperature, grain size, and impurity content result in failure of the Maxwell frequency scaling at f/fM>104, where the peak dissipation dominates over the background dissipation. The peak is significantly broadened near the solidus temperature (T/Tmelt=0.93), producing an absorption band toward the normalized seismic frequencies. The absorption band suggested by the present data is characterized by variable amplitude and width, indicating a nonlinear reduction of seismic velocity near the solidus.
Catalogue of Tsunamis in the Eastern Mediterranean from Antiquity to Present Times

This paper presents a systematic compilation of all data pertaining to tsunamis observed or recorded in the Eastern Mediterranean from antiquity to present times (1500 b.C. to 1980 a.D.). The first catalogue has been published by Prof. N.N. Ambraseys in the "Bulletin of the Seismological Society of America" (Vol. 52, No 4, October 1962) and this has formed the skeleton of this paper. All of the available information has been compiled from historical accounts, newspaper archives, other reports, and recent mareographic data. The earthquake data have been extracted from the Seismological Institute of Athens and relative bibliography. Most of the events listed are associated with earthquakes, but some are the result of volcanic activity . Many of the tsunamis have been generated along the coast of Greece, Albania, South Yugoslavia, Turkey, Syria and Israel. There is little doubt that the large conjugate fault system along, the west coast of Greece, Crete and Rodos till the south coast of Turkey is often responsible for the earthquakes in this area and most of tsunamis in the Eastern Mediterranean.
DOCK 8 functions as an adaptor that links Toll-like receptor – MyD 88 signaling to B cell activation Haifa

DOCK8 and MyD88 have been implicated in serologic memory. Here we report antibody responses were impaired and CD27+ memory B cells were severely reduced in DOCK8-deficient patients. Toll-like receptor 9 (TLR9)but not CD40-driven B cell proliferation and immunoglobulin production were severely reduced in DOCK8-deficient B cells. In contrast, TLR9-driven expression of AICDA, CD23 and CD86, and activation of NF-κB, p38 and Rac1 were intact. DOCK8 associated constitutively with MyD88 and the tyrosine kinase Pyk2 in normal B cells. Following TLR9 ligation, DOCK8 became tyrosine phosphorylated by Pyk2, bound the Src family kinase Lyn and linked TLR9 to a Src-Syk-STAT3 cascade essential for TLR9-driven B cell proliferation and differentiation. Thus, DOCK8 functions as an adaptor in a TLR9-MyD88 signaling pathway in B cells.
Reverse shoulder arthroplasty in the young patient: A narrative review

Reverse Shoulder Arthroplasty (RSA) is typically reserved for older, infirm patients presenting with irreparable rotator cuff tear arthropathy and proximal humerus fractures. Over the past few decades, RSA has become increasingly popular and now accounts for a significant percentage of shoulder arthroplasty volume in the United States. RSA, which was traditionally taught mainly for patients over 70 years of age, is now becoming more common in younger patients. There is some variability in the definition of a young patient, but it is typically defined as a patient younger than 65 years. A patient’s history will help frame the discussion and provide the surgeon with a list of potential differential diagnoses. A physical examination will help test and confirm the validity of these diagnoses as well as help determine the cause and severity of the illness. Emphasis should be placed on how illness affects a patient’s life. Physical examination is another tool used to confirm the hypothesis of the surgeon and patient’s story. Imaging can further confirm this diagnosis. Radiographs are used to provide an initial impression. Radiographs should be studied chronologically as a means to gauge symptom severity and progression and to correlate with the patient’s story. Indications for RSA include osteoarthritis, revision arthroplasty, and rotator cuff arthropathy. Complications for RSA in young patients ranges from 16.5% to 39.1%. Some of the major complications associated with RSA include infection and instability. Outcomes for RSA are good with American Shoulder and Elbow Surgeons Shoulder Score improvements and increased shoulder range of motion.
The anomalous demagnetization of pyrrhotite

SUMMARY The anomalous behaviour of pyrrhotite-bearing rocks from the Pennine Orefield, northern England on alternating field demagnetization is studied with particular reference to rotational remanent magnetization (RRM). Using a heat treated sample, it is demonstrated that a two-axis tumbling demagnetizer is capable of producing a repeatable RRM along its inner axis of rotation which is comparable in strength to that produced in an instrument which uses single axis rotation and which is specifically designed to produce a RRM. The unheated samples gave a scattered RRM which was of sufficient intensity to disturb the primary magnetization. After heating the RRM become reproducible, much larger and parallel to the rotation vector for rotation rates between 1.5 and 120 rev s-1 for an AF frequency of 50 Hz. This behaviour is unlike all previously measured samples, whether oxides or sulphides, by other workers. The source of the anomalous RRM and the change in RRM with heating are discussed with reference to the physical structure and the strong magnetocrystalline anisotropy in pyrrhotite.

Metabolomic Differences between Viable but Nonculturable and Recovered Lacticaseibacillus paracasei Zhang

The fermentation process can be affected when the starter culture enters the viable but nonculturable (VBNC) state. Therefore, it is of interest to investigate how VBNC cells change physiologically. Lacticaseibacillus (L.) paracasei Zhang is both a probiotic and a starter strain. This study aimed to investigate the metabolomic differences between VBNC and recovered L. paracasei Zhang cells. First, L. paracasei Zhang was induced to enter the VBNC state by keeping the cells in a liquid de Man–Rogosa–Sharpe (MRS) medium at 4 °C for 220 days. Flow cytometry was used to sort the induced VBNC cells, and three different types of culture media (MRS medium, skim milk with 1% yeast extract, and skim milk) were used for cell resuscitation. Cell growth responses in the three types of recovery media suggested that the liquid MRS medium was the most effective in reversing the VBNC state in L. paracasei Zhang. Metabolomics analysis revealed 25 differential metabolites from five main metabolite classes (amino acid, carbohydrate, lipid, vitamin, and purine and pyrimidine). The levels of L-cysteine, L-alanine, L-lysine, and L-arginine notably increased in the revived cells, while cellulose, alginose, and guanine significantly decreased. This study confirmed that VBNC cells had an altered physiology.
Accessible Area Mapper for Inclusive and Sustainable Urban Mobility: A Preliminary Investigation of Airborne Point Clouds for Pathway Analysis

We introduce the "Accessible Area Mapper," a novel system designed to map accessible pathways using airborne point clouds. By harnessing the 3D terrain information from these point clouds, our system delineates physically navigable areas that are customized to suit individual mobility requirements. This allows for a comprehensive understanding of pathways suitable for active mobility methods, like walking and bicycling. In addition, it can also identify accessible routes for individuals with disabilities, thereby promoting sustainable urban mobility as a whole. While it's currently in early stages, our work marks a transformative step towards reshaping 3D urban pathway mapping, making strides towards a more sustainable and inclusive transport ecosystem. We demonstrate our system's preliminary capabilities and discuss its potential.
