Published: December 2024

We investigated the pulsating behavior of KIC 10855535 using Kepler 4 yr long-cadence data. Two independent frequencies were detected: a pulsation frequency F0 = 17.733260(5) day−1 and a low frequency f
8 = 0.412643(8) day−1. We identify F0 as the fundamental frequency, at which an equidistant quintuplet is centered, suggesting that the star orbits in a binary system. The fitted orbital parameters align well with those reported in previous literature. Long-term phase modulation caused by binarity has been confirmed by considering the light curve from the Transiting Exoplanet Survey Satellite. By removing the light-time effect, we measured a linear change in period of order

, a value that could be indicative of stellar evolution. The star also exhibits a gradual and stable amplitude growth, thereby raising the possibility of structural changes during its evolution. We attributed f
8 and its two harmonics to rotation and surface spots, with further analysis suggesting characteristics evolving over time. Based on this hypothesis, KIC 10855535 may rotate slowly for its type, with a speed of 37(2) km s−1. Overall, KIC 10855535 presents an exceptionally clean spectrum and a relatively slow rotation as a δ Sct pulsator, exhibiting a single pulsation mode that undergoes both amplitude and phase modulation.
Ionized Carbon in Galaxies: The [C ii] 158 μm Line as a Total Molecular Gas Mass Tracer Revisited
Authors: Zhao 赵 Yinghe 应和 , Liu Jiamin , Zhang Zhi-Yu , Bisbas Thomas G.
Published: December 2024

In this paper, we present a statistical study of the [C ii] 158 μm line and the CO(1−0) emission for a sample of ∼200 local and high-z (32 sources with z > 1) galaxies with very different physical conditions. We explore the correlation between the luminosities of [C ii] and CO(1−0) lines and obtain a strong linear relationship, confirming that [C ii] is able to trace total molecular gas mass, with a small difference between (U)LIRGs and less-luminous galaxies. The tight and linear relation between [C ii] and CO(1−0) is likely determined by the average value of the observed visual extinction A

Post-Keplerian Perturbations of the Hyperbolic Motion in the Field of a Rotating Massive Object: Analysis in Terms of Osculating and Nonosculating (Contact) Elements
Authors: Iorio Lorenzo
Published: December 2024

The perturbations of the hyperbolic motion of a test particle due to the general relativistic gravitoelectromagnetic Schwarzschild and Lense–Thirring components of the gravitational field of a rotating massive body are analytically worked out to the first post-Newtonian level in terms of the osculating Keplerian orbital elements. To the Newtonian order, the impact of the quadrupole mass moment of the source is calculated as well. The resulting analytical expressions are valid for a generic orientation in space of both the orbital plane of the probe and the spin axis of the primary, and for arbitrary values of the eccentricity. They are applied to ‘Oumuamua, an interstellar asteroid which recently visited our solar system along an unbound heliocentric orbit, and to the Near Earth Asteroid Rendezvous spacecraft during its flyby of the Earth. The calculational approach developed can be straightforwardly extended to any alternative models of gravity as well.

The exponential growth of astronomical literature poses significant challenges for researchers navigating and synthesizing general insights or even domain-specific knowledge. We present pathfinder, a machine learning framework designed to enable literature review and knowledge discovery in astronomy, focusing on semantic searching with natural language instead of syntactic searches with keywords. Utilizing state-of-the-art large language models (LLMs) and a corpus of 385,166 peer-reviewed papers from the Astrophysics Data System, pathfinder offers an innovative approach to scientific inquiry and literature exploration. Our framework couples advanced retrieval techniques with LLM-based synthesis to search astronomical literature by semantic context as a complement to currently existing methods that use keywords or citation graphs. It addresses complexities of jargon, named entities, and temporal aspects through time-based and citation-based weighting schemes. We demonstrate the tool’s versatility through case studies, showcasing its application in various research scenarios. The system’s performance is evaluated using custom benchmarks, including single-paper and multipaper tasks. Beyond literature review, pathfinder offers unique capabilities for reformatting answers in ways that are accessible to various audiences (e.g., in a different language or as simplified text), visualizing research landscapes, and tracking the impact of observatories and methodologies. This tool represents a significant advancement in applying artificial intelligence to astronomical research, aiding researchers at all career stages in navigating modern astronomy literature.
The Statistical Analysis of GeV Spectral Breaks in Bright Gamma-Ray Flat-spectrum Radio Quasars
Authors: Zhu K. R. , Chen J. M. , Zhang L.
Published: December 2024

We present the statistical results of GeV spectral breaks of bright gamma-ray flat-spectrum radio quasars (FSRQs) in the energy range of 0.1–10 GeV based on New Pass 8 data of the Large Area Telescope on board Fermi Gamma-Ray Space Telescope. We have fitted the 15 yr average gamma-ray spectra of 755 FSRQs by using both the broken power law (BPL) and logarithmic parabola (LP) models, and obtained 87 bright gamma-ray FSRQs with their integrated photon fluxes greater than 2.16 × 10−8 cm−2 s−1. From our results, the FSRQ population shows similar preferences for both the BPL and LP models in gamma-ray spectral fitting, and the clustering analysis suggests that BPL-preferred and LP-preferred FSRQs belong to the same category. Our results indicate that GeV spectral breaks in bright gamma-ray FSRQs are located at 2.90 ± 1.92 GeV in the rest frame, and the observed change in photon index is Δγ = 0.45 ± 0.19, which is consistent with the expected value for a cooling break of electrons scattering seed photons.

The male genitalia characters of four species, Botys iopasalis Walker, 1859, Pleuroptya obfuscalis Yamanaka, 1998, Botys plagiatalis Walker, 1859 and Patania shompen Singh et Ahmad, 2022, placed in the genus Patania Moore, 1888 before the present study, do not conform to the diagnosis of Patania. A new genus, Purpuratagen. nov., is established for these four species, and two new species, Purpurata directasp. nov. and Purpurata luridasp. nov. are described based on their external morphology and genitalia characters. Purpurata directasp. nov. is designated as the type species of the new genus. Five species of the new genus were clearly separated from Patania species in the Maximum likelihood phylogenetic tree constructed based on COI sequence data. Compared to Patania, the new genus Purpurata exhibits distinctive characters in male genitalia: the uncus is short, broad, and arc-shaped posteriorly; the gnathos is present and setose, or reduced; and the fibula is very small and setose. In addition, Patania clava (Xu & Du), syn. nov. is synonymized with Purpurata iopasaliscomb. nov. An identification key to species of the new genus is presented based on morphological characters of habitus and genitalia. Images of the habitus and genitalia are provided.

is a milestone that calls for reflection on the many important contributions made by our clinicians, educators, and researchers to the care of older adults. This article was written to highlight not only the issues that have been the focus of our professional attention but also the accomplishments that gerontological nurses have made during the past half century. Edna Stilwell, the inaugural editor, laid out nine objectives for the journal in the first issue, which was published in 1975. Using those objectives as a lens to our past, the >400 editorials written from 1975 to the present are summarized and discussed using the framework Stilwell provided. The gerontological nurses who wrote these editorials were visionaries whose efforts advanced and continue to advance the quality of care that nurses provide to older adults today. [

Authors: Booker Staja Q. , Melillo Karen Devereaux , Boltz Marie , Horgas Ann L. , Harris Melodee , McDermott-Levy Ruth
Published: December 2024

The World Health Organization recognizes that aging is a life-long process. Aging is a universal phenomenon, and the number of people aged ≥65 years is expected to increase exponentially over the next 30 to 50 years. Thus, the universality and globalization of aging requires that our interconnected societies be equipped to meet the needs of humans across all developmental and life stages. The coronavirus disease 2019 pandemic taught us to be agile, innovative, and always prepared to tackle new health issues that target older adults and their communities. Thus, the future of gerontological nursing must support optimal aging through practice, education, research, and policy initiatives. In recognition of the
Journal of Gerontological Nursing's
50th anniversary, the current article forecasts future priorities and how gerontological nursing will address persistent challenges while capitalizing on opportunities to optimize health congruent with individuals' preferences and abilities, improve the care of older adults, and advance the study of aging.

Defining Informal Caregiving and Caregivers for Persons Living With Dementia
Authors: Happ Mary Beth , Moss Karen O. , Dabbs Annette DeVito , Narby Emmett , Song Mi-Kyung
Published: December 2024

Purpose

To present an overview of current definitions of informal caregiving and informal caregivers for persons living with dementia (PLWD). We suggest definitional criteria of informal caregiving for dementia caregiving research that incorporate current dementia caregiving policy and programs.

Method

A multi-pronged review and analysis was performed of the scientific literature from 2014 to 2024 and online documents from professional, public advocacy, and government organizations for definitions of informal caregiving and applications to informal caregiving of PLWD.

Results

Definitional inconsistencies in informal caregiving center primarily on parameters around compensation (“unpaid”) and relationships that are not in keeping with state, federal, and long-term care insurance programs that provide financial assistance, compensation, or stipends for caregiving. These inconsistencies extend to public policy and advocacy websites as well as peer-reviewed dementia and family caregiving literature.

Conclusion

In general, contemporary applications of the term “informal caregiver” for PLWD include relatives and non-relatives (kin/nonkin) who provide a broad array of assistance to PLWD. Informal care activities may be provided in residence with or near PLWD or at a distance. Definitions and inclusion criteria for informal caregiver should specify relative or unpaid non-relative, having some prior relationship or social ties to the PLWD, and not receiving compensation for care for the PLWD from a caregiving institution.

Preventing Depression Among Older Adults With Severe Illness: The Mediating Role of Life Satisfaction and the Moderating Role of Gender
Authors: Liu Juan , Wei Wei , Ding Zhihong
Published: December 2024

Purpose

The occurrence of severe illness, the risk for which increases as people age, often results in depression. The current study aimed to explore how and when severe illness leads to depression among older adults.

Method

Data collected from a sample of 756 older adults were analyzed using moderated mediation analysis to examine the underlying mechanism between severe illness and depression.

Results

Results, as verified by a robustness check, demonstrated that life satisfaction mediated the association between severe illness and depression among older men and women, and that gender moderated the direct relationship between severe illness and depression.

Conclusion

The formation path of depression from severe illness among older adults varies according to gender. For men, severe illness did not directly trigger depression, but indirectly triggered depression through decreased life satisfaction; for women, severe illness not only triggered depression directly, but also indirectly triggered depression through decreased life satisfaction. Results yield theoretical and practical implications for gerontological nursing. [

Surgical Treatment of Strabismus in Children With Developmental Delay: A Review of the Literature and Results of Personal Experience
Authors: Vagge Aldo , Lembo Andrea , Nucci Paolo
Published: December 2024

Purpose

To review the current literature, to provide a foundation of knowledge on strabismus surgery in patients with developmental delay, and to present results from the authors' personal experience.

Methods

The following terms were searched on PubMed: strabismus surgery, mental delay, developmental delay, Down syndrome, Angelman syndrome, cerebral palsy, hydrocephalus, Williams syndrome, fragile X syndrome, and fetal alcohol syndrome. Surgical outcomes were analyzed and discussed; only English articles were included. Medical records of 183 patients with developmental delay who underwent strabismus correction surgery from 2001 to 2020 were examined and discussed.

Results

Articles were reviewed and analyzed, categorized based on the disease. The authors' experience included 183 patients with various diseases or syndromes: 44 Down syndrome, 40 fetal alcohol syndrome, 36 Williams syndrome, 9 fragile X syndrome, 12 Angel-man syndrome, 11 Cohen syndrome, and 31 cerebral palsy. Surgical results at 3 and 18 months of follow-up were analyzed. Regarding esotropia surgery, 83.9% had a deviation of less than 8 prism diopters at 3 months and 53.8% at 18 months of follow-up. Hypocorrection was seen in 7.7% and 3.5% and hypercorrection was observed in 8.4% and 52.7% at 3 and 18 months, respectively. For exotropia, 60% had a deviation of less than 8 prism diopters at 3 months and 22.5% at 18 months. Hypocorrection occurred in 35% and 75%, whereas hypercorrection was found in 5% and 2.5%, respectively.

Conclusions

A higher prevalence of strabismus was found in these patients and the surgical outcomes were more difficult to predict. Patients with esotropia were more hypercorrected, whereas those with exotropia were more hyporcorrected.

Ocular Cystinosis Experience in Southwestern Ontario
Authors: Tran Edward , Makar Inas , Grimmer Joanne , Sharan Sapna
Published: December 2024

Purpose

To evaluate ocular treatment adherence and its impact on clinical outcomes in patients with cystinosis in southwestern Ontario, where the disease incidence is higher due to a founder effect in the Old Order Amish population.

Methods

This was a retrospective case series of patients with ocular cystinosis seen at Victoria Hospital and the Ivey Eye Institute at St Joseph's Health Care in London, Ontario, Canada, from 2008 to 2023. The authors investigated the demographics, ocular manifestations, and visual outcomes and characteristics in pediatric patients with ocular cystinosis. They also conducted qualitative analysis to characterize medication compliance and identify treatment barriers to compliance.

Results

This study included 14 patients with ocular cystinosis. In southwestern Ontario, the incidence of cystinosis is approximately 1 in 4,700 live births. Most patients were Old Order Amish, with a family history of cystinosis and consanguineous parents. During treatment, patients were typically asymptomatic, but photophobia was the most reported symptom. Slit-lamp examination revealed cystine crystals in the cornea of all patients; however, best corrected visual acuity and intraocular pressure were unremarkable in every case. A Fisher's exact test revealed a trend toward lower compliance in Amish patients compared to non-Amish patients (odds ratio: 0.067,
P
= .103). Significant treatment barriers for patients with ocular cystinosis were identified, including compliance issues with frequent eye drop regimens, educational and financial burdens, and geographical and cultural challenges, all impacting patient care and follow-up.

Conclusions

This study highlights the need for improved strategies to improve treatment compliance and overcome barriers to care for patients with ocular cystinosis, particularly within the Old Order Amish population in southwestern Ontario, to ensure better clinical outcomes and quality of life.

The Impact of COVID-19 on Admissions and In-hospital Mortality of Patients With Stroke in Korea: An Interrupted Time Series Analysis
Authors: Chang Youngs , Hwang Soo-Hee , Bai Haibin , Park Seowoo , Cho Eunbyul , Kim Dohoung , Lee Hyejin , Lee Jin Yong
Published: December 2024

Objectives: This study aimed to investigate the impact of coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19) on admission rates and in-hospital mortality among patients with ischemic and hemorrhagic stroke.Methods: We constructed a dataset detailing the monthly hospitalizations and mortality rates of inpatients with stroke from January 2017 to December 2021. Employing an interrupted time series analysis, we explored the impact of COVID-19 on hospitalizations and 30-day in-hospital mortality among stroke patients.Results: The number of ischemic stroke admissions decreased by 18.5%, from 5335 to 4348, immediately following the COVID-19 outbreak (p<0.001). The in-hospital mortality rate for ischemic stroke increased slightly from 3.3% to 3.4% immediately after the outbreak, although it showed a decreasing trend over time. The number of hemorrhagic stroke admissions fell by 7.5%, from 2014 to 1864, immediately following the COVID-19 outbreak. The 30-day in-hospital mortality rate for hemorrhagic stroke initially decreased from 12.9% to 12.7%, but subsequently showed an increasing trend.Conclusions: We confirmed that COVID-19 impacted both the admission and death rates of stroke patients. The admission rate for both ischemic and hemorrhagic strokes decreased, while in-hospital mortality increased. Specifically, in-hospital mortality from ischemic stroke rose initially after the outbreak before stabilizing. Additionally, our findings indicate variable effects based on sex, age, and socioeconomic status, suggesting that certain groups may be more susceptible. This underscores the need to identify and support vulnerable populations to mitigate adverse health outcomes.

Objectives: This study aimed to validate the risk of severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus 2 (SARS-CoV-2) infection, identify infection risk factors among air passengers subject to a 14-day mandatory quarantine, and evaluate the accuracy of mass symptom-based screening criteria at an airport.Methods: This retrospective cohort study analyzed data from 116 004 air passengers who entered Thailand through Suvarnabhumi Airport in Bangkok from April 2020 to September 2020. The incidence of SARS-CoV-2 infection, risk characteristics, and accuracy indices of symptom-based screening were calculated.Results: The overall incidence of SARS-CoV-2 was 0.5%, or 540 infections per 100 000 air passengers. Identified risk factors included sex, nationality, continent of departure, on-arrival screening results, and month of travel. Positive screening results indicated a higher risk and positive likelihood ratio for SARS-CoV-2 infection. However, the on-arrival screening criteria demonstrated low sensitivity and area under the receiver operating characteristic curve.Conclusions: The current study confirms previous findings that the risk of SARS-CoV-2 infection during air travel is low. However, this might result from strict pre-departure screening and the SARS-CoV-2 test requirement for arriving passengers. The symptom-based screening criteria used upon arrival showed a low probability of identifying positive cases, suggesting that incorporating additional criteria could help detect asymptomatic infections. The integrated screening and quarantine model proved effective in preventing the spread of the virus into local communities.

Savoir lire une documentation : une compétence à développer chez les étudiants du BUT Informatique
Authors: Joulia Danielle
Published: December 2024

L’anglais est primordial dans les études d’informatique. Dès le premier semestre, les étudiants sont confrontés à l’anglais de spécialité lors des travaux pratiques du cœur de métier. Face à leur écran d’ordinateur qui affiche un contenu en anglais, ils doivent être capables de comprendre et de rechercher de manière efficace des informations pertinentes dans les documentations, notamment dans les manuels de langage de programmation. Pour la plupart, qui ont un niveau en anglais de faux-débutant (A1-A2), leurs compétences linguistiques ne leur permettent pas de conduire une lecture efficiente de ces contenus spécialisés. Notre objectif est de les aider à développer des stratégies de lecture : à partir d’extraits de manuels techniques, nous les guidons vers une approche globale de ces textes authentiques, et ce faisant, ils découvrent le genre textuel de ces documentations informatiques, leur organisation textuelle et rhétorique, leurs régularités syntaxiques et lexicales qui en facilitent la compréhension.

Di questo percorso, qui si illustrano le tappe salienti.
Recevoir un tableau ? Quelques devenirs du Champ de blé aux corbeaux de Van Gogh (peinture, poésie, cinéma, sculpture) des années 1930 à nos jours
Authors: Gheerardyn Claire
Published: December 2024

Étudier la réception interartiale et mondialisée de Van Gogh pose un défi, celui d’affronter un corpus vaste, croissant sans cesse. La vie du peintre, son œuvre pictural, et sa correspondance suscitent des œuvres secondes hétérogènes, appartenant à tous les arts (peinture, sculpture, cinéma, musique, danse et performance, littérature, et en particulier poésie), émanant d’artistes aussi bien européens qu’américains et chinois. L’humanité tout entière semble partager la figure de Van Gogh qui incarne, dans l’imaginaire collectif, le génie par excellence et l’artiste maudit. Parmi les huit cents toiles du peintre, les œuvres secondes opèrent une sélection, caractéristique des processus de réception. Elles retiennent une dizaine de toiles, dont le Champ de blé aux corbeaux (1890), sur lequel porte notre étude. Ce tableau donne en effet naissance à un autre corpus, lui‑même exponentiel, où l’on retrouve la plupart des éléments récurrents dans la réception générale du peintre. On y découvre le Van Gogh des avant‑gardes et celui de la culture populaire, le Van Gogh des expressionnistes et celui des post‑modernes commentant la notoriété du peintre, l’artiste dégénéré, l’interlocuteur de toutes les douleurs de l’humanité. Ce surcroît de significations survient dans la mesure où ce tableau est considéré comme dernière œuvre, la création ultime, réalisée au moment où la mort frappe le peintre, alors même qu’aucun élément concret ne vient prouver ce fait. Notre article cherche à faire apparaître des chaînes et des blocs de réception. Il montre que ce corpus d’œuvres secondes se nourrit à la fois des propositions d’histoire de l’art, des expositions successives, de l’intertextualité, et de constructions imaginaires propagées par la culture populaire.

Authors: Blackmon Janat R.
Published: December 2024

International School Leadership requires unique skills to bring educators from many cultures together in curriculum design, implementation, and assessment. Educational leaders work to ensure value and quality in international education and their leadership effectiveness influences student success. Educators from different countries have very different experiences in teacher preparation programs that can range from on-the-job training with no formal training prior, to having a five-year bachelor of education with 4-5 practicum experiences. Educators also bring a philosophy of educational pedagogy; from child rights, child development, brain development, learning styles, teaching methodologies, professional character, assessment beliefs to their practice. How an educational leader brings this all together for their staff with acculturation, change management and Professional Learning Communities can impact student learning outcomes, teacher efficacy, and school community success in realizing the vision and mission for the school.

The Health Benefits of the Cheese
Authors: Gülhan Ayca
Published: December 2024

This chapter focuses on the nutritional components of cheese and their impact on human health. Cheese is a widely enjoyed fermented dairy product that offers essential nutrients and beneficial bioactive compounds and contains bioactive peptides, proteins, amino acids, lipids, fatty acids, vitamins, and minerals, which provide various health benefits such as antioxidant, antihypertensive, antiproliferative, anti-inflammatory, antidiabetic, anticancer, immune-modulating, and antimicrobial effects. Cheese is rich in calcium, phosphorus, zinc, and magnesium, which help prevent tooth decay and osteoporosis. During cheese production, lactic acid bacteria and yeast starter strains inhibit the growth of harmful microorganisms and their byproducts. These microorganisms produce functional metabolites like bioactive peptides, exopolysaccharides, and conjugated linoleic acid, which enhance cheese's functional properties. Adding probiotic lactic acid bacteria strains to starter cultures improves the absorption of bioactive substances and promotes health.

A type of machine learning called supervised learning uses labelled training data to teach computers how to forecast the outcome. The labeled data denotes that some input data has been already marked with the correct output. This training data acts as a supervisor, guiding the machines to accurately forecast the output, akin to a teacher supervising a student. The objective of supervised learning is to provide a machine-learning model with correct input and output data. The method seeks a mapping function that connects the input variable (x) to the output variable (y). The spread of numerous diseases through common means such as air and touch has become a significant concern, particularly during the COVID-19 pandemic. The Disease Detection System employs supervised learning to address this challenge by detecting diseases with just a few clicks on the software. In the future, the input-based prediction system could be extended to an im-age-based prediction system.
