Published: October 2022

Introduction. Proximal femur fractures are a common problem in the geriatric population. Moreover, due to numerous comorbidities, the choice of the appropriate form of treatment requires a cardiology consultation. Aim. Therefore, the aim of this study is to analyze whether these consultations have a significant impact on the treatment of patients with proximal femoral fractures. Materials and methods. A total number of 158 patients with a mean age of 81.3 (range, 56-98), treated for femoral neck and trochanteric fractures were enrolled in a retrospective study. Data from the patient’s treatment history were used for the study, such as: age, hospital admission date, cardiological consultation date, surgery date, discharge date or date of death. Results. Patients without cardiology consultation stayed in hospital on average 3.97 days shorter (p = 0.0011) and had surgery on average 2.89 days earlier (p = 0.000001) than patients with an arranged consultation. The percentage of deaths in both groups was similar: 6.1% and 7.1% (p = 0.70068). Spinal anesthesia was mainly performed by anesthesiologists in the group with consultation (64.3%) and without consultation (83.8%) (p = 0.442). More cases with a consultation were disqualified from surgery: 18.8% vs. 2.9% (p = 0.00357). Among the patients with an ordered cardiological consultation, 53.6% had surgery > 48 hours after admission compared to 26.2% patients without consultation (p = 0.0002). Conclusions. Cardiological consultations extend the length of stay in hospital and delay surgical treatment, but do not affect the choice of anesthesia. However, consultation in some cases may help in the proper qualification and disqualification from surgery.

Published: October 2022

Avulsion fractures of the pelvis usually occur in young athletes and are the most common type of avulsion fractures in the pediatric population. The most frequent fractures of this group are fractures of the anterior superior and anterior inferior iliac spine and fractures of the ischial tuberosity. The diagnosis of this type of fracture requires awareness, because their symptoms may suggest muscular injuries. There have not been found clear-cut guidelines for the treatment of pelvic avulsion fractures in the currently available literature. Most of these fractures can be successfully treated conservatively. Operative treatment should be considered first in professional athletes, and significant displacements fragments of the fracture, amount to more than 1-3 cm depending on the source. Patients who undergo surgical treat-ment have a faster recovery, however, surgery is associated with several possible complica-tions, including this contingent on implant presence. There are several surgical treatment techniques, all of which are described as giving good results with few complications.

Authors: Ramirez-Loera Cristopher , Sandoval-Lopez Diego A. , Mejía-Pérez Sonia I.
Published: October 2022

Objective: To describe the case of a patient diagnosed with Neurofibromatosis Type 1 (NF1), who developed her first neoplastic lesion as Primary Central Nervous System Lymphoma (PCNSL). To our knowledge, this is the third case of PCNSL in the context of NF1.
Background: PCNSL represents 1% of non-Hodgkin extranodal Lymphomas, and 3% of CNS tumors. Diffuse Large B-Cell Lymphoma accounts for 30-40% of the cases, commonly found in the encephalus, spinal cord, leptomeninges, or the eye. Predominant malignant tumors in NF1 are gliomas and Malignant Peripheral Nerve Sheath Tumor (MPNST).
Methods: A 53-year-old Mexican female, with a history of NF1, arrived at the emergency department with left-side subacute progressive numbness and weakness. Left hemiplegia. MRI showed a ring-enhancing lesion in the right central lobe and a lesion in the subcutaneous tissue. Additionally, the patient underwent a full body 18-FDG PET scan, which reported activity only in the CNS. 
Results: Lesion-centered craniectomy and surgical evacuation were performed. Histopathological examination revealed lymphoid lineage cells, CD20, PAX-5, and Ki-67 were positive for neoplastic cells, confirming the diagnosis of PCNSL. At the 6-months follow-up visit, strength improved significantly, and the follow-up MRI did not show residual mass. 
Conclusions: It is necessary to study the prevalence of LPSNC in these patients, as well as the relative risk, and to develop guidelines for its best approach. We believe that the real incidence of the disease is underestimated, since the genetic and pathophysiological mechanisms that promote its origin still need to be clarified.

A data-driven framework for landslide size space-time modelling
Authors: Fang Zhice , Wang Yi , van Westen Cees , Lombardo Luigi
Published: October 2022

Landslide susceptibility assessment using data-driven models has predominantly focused on predicting where landslides may occur and not on how large they might be. The spatio-temporal evaluation of landslide susceptibility has only recently been addressed, as a basis for predicting where and when landslides might occur. The present study combines these new developments by proposing a data-driven model capable of estimating how large landslides may be, for the Taiwan territory in a fourteen year time window. To solve this task, our model assumes that landslide sizes follow a Log-Gaussian probability distribution in space and time. Spatially the area is subdivided into 46074 slope units, with 14 annual timesteps from 2004 to 2018. Based on this subdivision, the model we implemented regressed landslide sizes against a covariate set that includes temporally static and dynamic properties. In the validation of our model, we nested a wide range of cross-validation (CV) procedures, such as a randomized 10fold-CV, a spatially constrained CV, a temporal leave-one-year-out CV, and a spatio-temporal CV. The final performance was described both numerically as well as in map forms. Overall, our space-time model achieves interpretable and satisfying results. With the availability of more complete landslide inventories, both temporally and spatially, we envision that spatio-temporal landslide size prediction will become the next challenge for geomorphologists to finally address a fundamental component of the landslide hazard definition. And, because of its spatio-temporal nature, we also envision that it may lead to simulation studies for varying climate scenarios.

Authors: Ni Chung-Fan , Jacques Justin Gasper , Silber Charles L , Dykeman Cass
Published: October 2022

This pilot study demonstrates language style matching (LSM) as an evaluation tool when examining counseling session discourse transcripts. LSM explores the language style of individuals and whether there is coordination in a dyadic conversation. This study examined the differences between suicidal discourse and general discourse. We employed a cross-sectional corpus linguistic analysis of transcripts of counseling sessions. The corpora were analyzed using the LSM methodology embedded in the Linguistic Inquiry and the Word Count software (LIWC-22). The results showed that LSM between clients and counselors within suicide discourse sessions was not statistically significantly different from those with general counseling content. Additionally, stylistic words did not vary between the two respective groups of dyads. The LSM can be an assessment tool in analyzing transcripts to determine the level of empathy and the therapeutic alliance. Additional basic counseling skills are transferable across different counseling topics.

Open Access with Chinese Characteristics: Understanding Recent History and Current Practice via Qualitative Interviews at a Large Chinese Research University
Authors: Kahn Meredith , Fu Liangyu
Published: October 2022

Chinese scholars, administrators, and librarians possess nuanced understandings of what defines open access (OA) in China and the barriers that make wider adoption of OA difficult. When we say “OA” in the United States, we imply a complex set of underlying assumptions tied to the history and practice of scholarship. Saying “OA” in China brings with it a similarly complex set of assumptions that may not be commensurate with the OA that we speak of, and such one-to-one translation may not be possible or desirable given the unique historical, political, and linguistic differences between the world’s two largest producers and consumers of scholarship. Through a careful analysis of our participants’ observations and a review of the history and context of Chinese academic institutions, we posit that “OA with Chinese characteristics” describes a set of possibilities and constraints that determine how Chinese academics experience both the theoretical project and the practical distribution method we commonly call OA. Although these multiple understandings of OA may not converge on a single shared meaning, we can endeavor to understand one another better in the service of creating and sharing knowledge.

Covid-19 du meilleur au pire: la gestion de crise à la tchèque
Authors:   Charles University in Prague, Kotherová Zuzana , Perottino Michel ,   Charles University in Prague
Published: October 2022

This paper maps the Covid-19 pandemic evolution in the Czech Republic: from the “best in Covid” in spring 2020 through three heavy epidemic waves during autumn and winter 2020 to one of the most hit countries in the world in the spring season 2021 in terms of deads. The aim of this contribution is to let the reader understand better this Czech anomaly by studying two possible factors of this negative balance: the state of the art of the Czech healthcare system before the pandemic and political management of the crisis. The results of our article show that the Czech healthcare system seems to be financially stable and relatively well prepared for the potential crisis in terms of personal, technical, and medical capacities – even if situation in the public health is far from ideal. On the contrary, the competence of the Czech government in managing the Covid-19 pandemics remains controversial – for this reason, the pros and cons of the political management of the crises are discussed.
Simulation of the Influence of Spray Parameters on Particle Properties in APS
Authors: Lugscheider E. , Papenfuß-Janzen N.
Published: October 2022

This paper investigates the influence of process parameters on plasma sprayed particles. Through simulations, the authors show that particle velocity is largely a function of trajectory, which is influenced by plasma composition, powder properties, injection velocity, particle size distribution, and kinetic energy. Depending on kinetic energy, the particles are deflected by the high viscous region around the flow core, they enter the core, or they pass through it into the slow outer flow on the opposite side. Paper includes a German-language abstract.

On the Economical and Environmental Aspects of TSA Coatings
Authors: de Munter A.J. , Bult A. , de Jong J.A.
Published: October 2022

Although thermally sprayed aluminum (TSA) has come to be recognized as an effective corrosion protection treatment, its use has been limited to off-shore structures. The fact that TSA coatings were unsuccessful as an alternative to traditional organic coatings has more to do with economics than technology. This paper presents life cycle cost models that justify the much higher level of investment required with TSA spraying while accounting for its ecological advantages in terms of energy, waste, and volatile emissions. Paper includes a German-language abstract.

Plasma Sprayed Ceramic Coatings for Electrical Insulation on Glass Ceramic Components
Authors: Gadow R. , Killinger A. , Li C.
Published: October 2022

This paper presents and assesses a thermal spraying process for applying electrically insulating layers on glass ceramic substrates. It reviews the crystal structure of glass and glass ceramic and explains how it influences splat morphology, phase transformation, and the properties of plasma-sprayed materials. It is observed that substrate preheating is necessary with glass ceramics as is substrate cooling; the former to promote adhesion, the latter to control residual stress. Spray parameters such as plasma power and powder feed rate also have an effect on residual stress and must be controlled as well. Paper includes a German-language abstract.

Hochtemperatur-Verschleißverhalten von thermisch gespritzten Hartmetallschichten für Ventilspindeln in Dampfturbinen (High-Temperature Wear Behavior of Thermally Sprayed Cemented Carbide Coatings for Valve Spindles in Steam Turbines)
Authors: Schneider P. , Siegmann S. , Hitzek R.
Published: October 2022

Thermally sprayed hardmetal coatings are often used to protect valves in steam turbines against wear. Normally the valve spindles are made of CrMo steel and their bearings are made of Stellite, a cobalt-base alloy. In this investigation, a block-on-ring wear test is used with rings and blocks made of the same materials as the spindles and bearings. The rings were coated with Cr3C2-NiCr by HVOF spraying. Wear tests showed increasing weight loss up to 400°C and a sharp decline at 600°C due to a thin surface oxide layer that begins growing at 450°C. The coatings are characterized based on SEM, EDX, and hardness measurements. Paper text in German.
