Authors: Briggs-Steinberg Courtney , Aboudi David , Hodson Gabrielle , Shah Shetal 
Published: November 2019

Abstract
Objective This article determines the tolerance of neonatal intensive care unit (NICU)-based administration of RV5 in premature infants. This article also aims to compare the rate of clinically significant adverse events after RV5 immunization to the standard 2-month shot series and to historical controls who were not immunized.
Study Design This is a retrospective case–control study of 201 premature infants immunized with RV5. Infants were evaluated for clinically significant events 7 days before and after immunization and were compared with events after the 2-month shot series and to 189 historical controls. Wilcoxon signed rank test and McNemar's test were used for all paired analysis.
Results There was no increase in number of infants with clinically significant adverse events when comparing after RV5 to prior to RV5, after the 2-month shot series, or to the historical controls.
Conclusion RV5 is well tolerated in premature infants and does not result in clinically significant adverse events when administered in NICU-hospitalized infants.

Abstract
Objective This study aimed to evaluate the association between acute kidney injury (AKI) and lung outcomes in infants born ≥32 weeks of gestational age (GA).
Study Design Secondary analysis of infants ≥32 weeks of GA in the assessment of worldwide acute kidney injury epidemiology in neonates (AWAKEN) retrospective cohort (n = 1,348). We used logistic regression to assess association between AKI and a composite outcome of chronic lung disease (CLD) or death at 28 days of age and linear regression to evaluate association between AKI and duration of respiratory support.
Results CLD occurred in 82/1,348 (6.1%) infants, while death occurred in 22/1,348 (1.6%); the composite of CLD/death occurred in 104/1,348 (7.7%). Infants with AKI had an almost five-fold increased odds of CLD/death, which remained after controlling for GA, maternal polyhydramnios, multiple gestations, 5-minute Apgar's score, intubation, and hypoxic–ischemic encephalopathy (adjusted odds ratio [OR] = 4.9, 95% confidence interval [CI]: 3.2–7.4; p < 0.0001). Infants with AKI required longer duration of respiratory support (count ratio = 1.59, 95% CI: 1.14–2.23, p = 0.003) and oxygen (count ratio = 1.43, 95% CI: 1.22–1.68, p < 0.0001) compared with those without AKI.
Conclusion AKI is associated with CLD/death and longer duration of respiratory support in infants born at ≥32 weeks of GA. Further prospective studies are needed to elucidate the pathophysiologic relationship.

Published: November 2019

Abstract
Objectives Retinopathy of prematurity (ROP) is the leading preventable cause of blindness in children worldwide. Major eye and visual problems are strongly linked to ROP requiring treatment. Objectives of the study are to: (1) evaluate the trends and regional differences in the proportion of treated ROP, (2) describe risk factors, and (3) examine if treated ROP predicts mortality.
Study Design Retrospective data analysis was conducted using the Kids' Inpatient Database from 1997 to 2012. ROP was categorized into treated ROP (requiring laser photocoagulation or surgical intervention) and nontreated ROP. Bivariate and multivariate logistic regression analyses were performed.
Results Out of 21,955,949 infants ≤ 12 months old, we identified 70,541 cases of ROP and 7,167 (10.2%) were treated. Over time, the proportion of treated ROP decreased (p = < 0.001). While extremely low birth weight infants cared for in the Midwest was associated with treated ROP (adjusted odds ratio [aOR] = 29.05; 95% confidence interval [CI]: 10.64–79.34), black race (aOR = 0.57; 95% CI: 0.51–0.64) care for in the birth hospital (aOR = 0.44; 95% CI: 0.41–0.48) was protective. Treated ROP was not associated with mortality.
Conclusion The proportion of ROP that is surgically treated has decreased in the United States; however, there is variability among the different regions. Demographics and clinical practice may have contributed for this variability.
‘Matt & Mrs Connor is with me now. They are only beginning to learn the work of the camp’
Authors: Amador-Moreno Carolina P. 
Published: November 2019

The history of Ireland has been shaped by emigration. During the most intensive period of migration, many Irish travelled to
North America, but considerable numbers were also destined for other parts of the world, including Latin America. During the nineteenth
century, Argentina became one of the Latin-American destinations, with 40–45,000 Irish emigrants settling there (Murray 2004). Many of those settlers kept in touch with family and friends through letters that can now be studied for
linguistic purposes. The letters, which are part of the Corpus of Irish English Correspondence, provide interesting insights
into how Irish English (IrE) was preserved in a non-English speaking environment, sometimes for generations. The descendants of these settlers
gradually switched to Spanish, and transfer features from Spanish are attested in the corpus.
Taking a historical sociolinguistic perspective, this chapter analyses the presence of some IrE features in the correspondence
produced by the Irish-Argentines, and it raises some issues in relation to how borrowing can be an indicator of the creation of new language
identities in an post-colonial context. The chapter also draws attention to the value of emigrant letters for the study of language variation
and change.
Au sujet d’une nouvelle histoire littéraire francophone transnationale
Authors: Cedergren Mickaëlle 
Published: November 2019

Abstract
This article considers the Francophone literary canon based on a transnational reception study. It focuses
on the circulation of French language literature within the Swedish academic system during the last thirty years. A longitudinal
empirical study of bachelor and doctoral dissertations in French between 1986 and 2016 allows the author to examine the dynamics
of canon formation and renewal, as well as the role of universities in this process, particularly in regard to the creation of a
canon of Francophone literary works. In response to recent scholarly anthologies which have debated the Francophone canon, this
study is able to confirm the existence of Francophone classics. Finally, it is argued that further reception studies focusing on
areas outwith the Francophone literary system will be of prime importance if the question of the Francophone canon is to be fully
assessed beyond the immediate context of the Hexagone.
Free NPs as units in Finnish
Authors: Helasvuo Marja-Liisa 
Published: November 2019

AbstractThis article focuses on free NPs, i.e. noun phrases that are grammatically not part of any clause but form units of their own. Using the methodology of discourse-functional and interactional linguistics, I analyze the morphosyntactic, prosodic and interactional features of free NPs in conversational Finnish. With its rich morphological marking, Finnish provides an interesting perspective on free NPs: Morphosyntactic features, together with semantics, are crucial in determining the status of an NP as a clausal constituent or a free NP. The prosodic analysis shows that the majority of free NPs show clear prosodic boundaries, signalled for example by speaker change, coherent intonation contour, pause or pitch reset. Free NPs serve various interactional functions, such as making assessments or disambiguating referents. These are functions which operate on something already established in the discourse. Free NPs, however, can also initiate something new for example by making requests or introducing new topics.
Referring expressions in categorizing activities
Authors: Mayes Patricia , Tao Hongyin 
Published: November 2019

AbstractLinguistic units as traditionally conceived by linguists favor structural features and referential meanings. In this paper, we propose a new way of understanding the nature of linguistic units by analyzing the interaction of multiple semiotic resources (gestures, bodily movement, eye gazeandspeech) in social interaction. We focus on the discursive activity of “categorizing” in different situations and in two languages, English and Mandarin Chinese. Categorizing is broadly defined as any activity that involves explicitly or implicitly classifying people or objects into types. We show that the meanings of linguistic units (including the referential) may be distorted or incomplete when forms are extracted from their contexts and analyzed in isolation. Instead, we argue that an interactional, activity-based view, focusing on the deployment of linguistic elements as part of a coordinated system of semiotic resources, will enable us to understand the nature of linguistic units in a more productive way.
Truth, person, and personal truth

Published: November 2019

AbstractIn this paper we present data on the copula system of Kuke, a language of the lower Nubri valley, in northern Nepal. We present data showing that the system of copulas cannot easily be categorised in terms of the different descriptive categories that are frequently used in discussion of languages of the Himalayan region (evidentiality, egophoricity, conjunct/disjunct). Further, the different contrasts encoded in the morphologically simple copula system shows a range of semantics (loosely associated with first person interpretations) that has rarely been described as occurring in one system.
The predicate as a locus of grammar and interaction in colloquial Indonesian
Authors: Ewing Michael C. 
Published: November 2019

AbstractDescriptions of Indonesian usually take the clause as the starting point for analysing grammatical structure and rely on the notion of ellipsis to account for the way speakers actually use language in everyday conversational interaction. This study challenges the status of “clause” by investigating the structures actually used by Indonesian speakers in informal conversation and it demonstrates that the predicate, rather than the clause, plays a central role in the grammar of Indonesian conversation. The preponderance of predicates in the data that do not have explicit arguments suggests that this format is best viewed as the default. When a predicate is produced without overt arguments, reconstructing what arguments may have been elided is often ambiguous or indeterminate and seems to be irrelevant to speakers. An examination of turn-taking, overlap and incrementing in conversation also shows that predicates, rather than full clauses, are the grammatical format participants regularly orient to.
Psychological and Endocannabinoid Responses to Aerobic Exercise in Substance use Disorder Patients
Authors: Brellenthin Angelique G. , Crombie Kevin M. , Hillard Cecilia J. , Brown Randall T. , Koltyn Kelli F. 
Published: November 2019

Background Exercise has been examined as an adjunctive treatment for substance use disorders (SUDs), yet few exercise interventions have been conducted among patients undergoing intensive outpatient (IOP) treatment, who may be the most vulnerable to relapse and for whom exercise could provide the most benefits. This study examined the effects of aerobic exercise, in addition to IOP treatment, on psychological variables and endocannabinoids in individuals with SUDs. Methods: Twenty-one SUD patients (mean age 35 years) were recruited from local IOPs. Participants were randomized to either treatment-as-usual (TAU, at their outpatient clinic) or TAU plus aerobic exercise training (EX). EX participants engaged in supervised, moderate-intensity exercise for 30 min, 3 times/week for 6 weeks. TAU participants came into the laboratory once per week for assessments and a 30-min quiet rest session. Participants provided blood samples and completed questionnaires evaluating substance use, mood states, depression, anxiety, perceived stress, self-efficacy to abstain from substance use, and craving. Data were analyzed with Mann–Whitney U tests or mixed model ANOVAs to determine group differences in outcomes acutely and over 6 weeks. Results Over 6 weeks, there were reductions in perceived stress ( p < 0.01) and craving ( p < 0.05) for both groups. There were no group differences in abstinence rates or changes from baseline in self-efficacy, depression, or anxiety ( p > 0.05). Acutely, both exercise and quiet rest sessions led to reductions in craving, tension, depression, anger, confusion, and total mood disturbance (all ps < 0.05). In addition, the EX group experienced acute increases in vigor and circulating concentrations of the endocannabinoid, anandamide ( p < 0.01). Conclusions An adjunctive aerobic exercise program during SUD treatment was associated with similar reductions in perceived stress and drug craving as standard care. Thirty minutes of exercise or quiet rest led to acute improvements in mood, but exercise produced the additional benefit of increases in vigor and circulating anandamide.
Concerns regarding immigration in Germany: how subjective fears, becoming unemployed and social mobility change anti-immigrant attitudes
Authors: Stawarz Nico , Müller Michael 
Published: November 2019

ABSTRACT
This article analyzes how anti-immigrant attitudes shift when individuals experience changes in their subjective and objective economic situations. To do this, we use data from the German Socio-Economic Panel Study (GSOEP, N ≈ 14,700) and apply fixed-effects multinomial logit panel regression models as a statistical framework. The social identity approach is applied as a theoretical perspective to explain how individual incidents can lead to group-based devaluations. Our findings show almost no effect of social mobility and shifts in the household income, while more disruptive events, such as becoming unemployed, significantly increase the probability of having stronger anti-immigrant attitudes. However, the largest shift in anti-immigrant attitudes is observed when fears of a worsening economic situation increase.
Magnetoresistance from time-reversal symmetry breaking in topological materials
Authors: de Boer Jorrit C , Leusink Denise P , Brinkman Alexander 
Published: November 2019

Abstract
Magnetotransport measurements are a popular way of characterizing the electronic structure of topological materials and often the resulting datasets cannot be described by the well-known Drude model due to large, non-parabolic contributions. In this work, we focus on the effects of magnetic fields on topological materials through a Zeeman term included in the model Hamiltonian. To this end, we re-evaluate the simplifications made in the derivations of the Drude model and pinpoint the scattering time and Fermi velocity as Zeeman-term dependent factors in the conductivity tensor. The driving mechanisms here are the aligment of spins along the magnetic field direction, which allows for backscattering, and a significant change to the Fermi velocity by the opening of a hybridization gap. After considering 2D and 3D Dirac states, as well as 2D Rashba surface states and the quasi-2D bulk states of 3D topological insulators, we find that the 2D Dirac states on the surfaces of 3D topological insulators produce magnetoresistance, that is significant enough to be noticable in experiments. As this magnetoresistance effect is strongly dependent on the spin-orbit energy, it can be used as a telltale sign of a Fermi energy located close to the Dirac point.
The Rise of Behavioral Economic Masculinity
Authors: Chihara Michelle 
Published: November 2019

AbstractThis essay begins a cultural history of the behavioral economic narrative mode in American popular media, in relation to the academic discipline but not coincident with it. From podcasts to Michael Lewis’s books and films, the behavioral economic mode of narration changes the character or figure of economic knowledge. Instead of the distant financial expert, this mode insists on the authority of the friendly explainer. In the years around the 2008 crisis, at a moment when financial scandals seemed to be losing their power to scandalize, this mode asserted behavioral economic knowledge as the new standard of realism. As the affective structures beneath earlier capitalist realist narratives diminished in power, the behavioral economic turn marked a reassertion of narrative authority. The behavioral mode instantiated a new relationship to a familiar misogyny and is perhaps best understood as a cultural shift with varied ideological commitments to economic philosophy itself. The behavioral economic mode is characterized by scenes of objectivity training or moments where the viewer or reader is trained to understand objectivity as a performance of distance from the subject’s gender or race. Not incidentally, this performance is demanded specifically of those who do not fit the neoclassical ideal of the rational agent and who are not white and not male.

Authors: Loch-Wilkinson Anna , Beath Kenneth J , Magnusson Mark R , Cooter Rodney , Shaw Karen , French James , Vickery Karen , Prince H Miles , Deva Anand K 
Published: November 2019

Abstract

Background
Breast implant-associated anaplastic large cell lymphoma (BIA-ALCL) is an emerging cancer that has been linked to the use of textured devices. The recent increase in number and frequency of cases has led to worldwide regulatory action.

Objectives
The authors aimed to longitudinally study BIA-ALCL in Australia since the index case was first reported in 2007.

Methods
Confirmed historical cases were collected and then prospectively analyzed from October 2015 to May 2019. Clinical and implant exposure data were determined and compared with company sales data for 4 devices to generate implant-specific risk.

Results
A total 104 cases of BIA-ALCL were diagnosed in Australia with exposure to 149 unique breast implants. The mean age of patients was 48.2 years (range, 22.4-78.5 years). They had an average time from implantation to diagnosis of 6.8 years. A total 51.7% of implants utilized in this cohort were Allergan Biocell devices. The indication for implant usage was for primary cosmetic augmentation in 70%, post-breast cancer reconstruction in 23%, and following weight loss/pregnancy in 7%. The majority of women presented with early (stage 1) disease (87.5%). The risk for developing BIA-ALCL ranged from 1 in 1947 sales (95% confidence interval = 1199-3406) for Silimed Polyurethane devices to 1 in 36,730 (95% confidence interval = 12,568-178,107) for Siltex imprinted textured devices.

Conclusions
Implants with higher surface area/texture seem to be more associated with BIA-ALCL in Australia. Recent regulatory action to suspend, cancel, or recall some of these higher risk devices is supported by these findings.

Published: November 2019

Abstract
Sample entropy is a powerful tool for analyzing the complexity and irregularity of physiology signals which may be associated with human health. Nevertheless, the sophistication of its calculation hinders its universal application. As of today, the R language provides multiple open-source packages for calculating sample entropy. All of which, however, are designed for different scenarios. Therefore, when searching for a proper package, the investigators would be confused on the parameter setting and selection of algorithms. To ease their selection, we have explored the functions of five existing R packages for calculating sample entropy and have compared their computing capability in several dimensions. We used four published datasets on respiratory and heart rate to study their input parameters, types of entropy, and program running time. In summary, NonlinearTseries and CGManalyzer can provide the analysis of sample entropy with different embedding dimensions and similarity thresholds. CGManalyzer is a good choice for calculating multiscale sample entropy of physiological signal because it not only shows sample entropy of all scales simultaneously but also provides various visualization plots. MSMVSampEn is the only package that can calculate multivariate multiscale entropies. In terms of computing time, NonlinearTseries, CGManalyzer, and MSMVSampEn run significantly faster than the other two packages. Moreover, we identify the issues in MVMSampEn package. This article provides guidelines for researchers to find a suitable R package for their analysis and applications using sample entropy.

Abstract
In this study, a novel thorium metal organic framework was synthesized, characterized and used as a sorbent for very efficient pipette tip micro solid-phase extraction of bisphenol A in bottled drinking water samples using high-performance liquid chromatography as detecting instrument. Parameters which influence extraction efficiency such as pH, sample volume, amount of sorbent, type and volume of eluent, number of aspirating and dispensing cycles for extraction and elution, and volume of the sample solution were studied and optimized. A linear calibration curve was obtained in the range of 0.002–0.456 ng mL−1 (r2 = 0.996) with a detection limit of 0.0010 ng mL−1. Repeatability of batch-to-batch extraction was better than 5.0% and a reproducibility of 3.2% for real samples obtained.
The role of home visits by a nurse to improve palliation in patients treated with self-expandable metallic stents due to incurable esophageal cancer
Authors: Bjerring O S , Larsen M K , Fristrup C W , Lundell L , Mortensen M B 
Published: November 2019

Summary
Self-expandable metallic stent (SEMS) is a preferred option to relieve dysphagia and to palliate patients with incurable esophageal or gastro-esophageal junction (GEJ) cancer. Health Related Quality of Life (QoL) represents a clinically relevant outcome measure in research focused on palliation of patients with advanced GI cancer. In this context, home visits by a nurse carry the potential to offer important advantages. Eighty patients with incurable esophageal or GEJ cancer were randomized to either standard follow up or to an intervention containing regular home visits by a nurse. The primary outcome variable QoL was assessed by EORTC QLQ-C30 and OES-18 before insertion of SEMS, and at 2, 7 and 12 weeks thereafter. Secondary outcomes were; need for re-interventions, number of patients receiving palliative oncological therapy and overall survival. Sixty-six males and 13 females, with a median age of 71, were included. Self-reported overall QoL was significantly higher in the intervention group (P = 0.03). The organ specific module OES-18 revealed a significant reduction in dysphagia by the intervention (P = 0.03) as well as fewer eating disabilities (P = 0.04). No differences were observed in secondary outcomes except for overall survival, where the median survival was increased from 114 to 183 days by the active intervention (P = 0.02). Home visits by a nurse seem to play an important palliative role after placement of SEMS in patients with incurable esophageal or GEJ cancer by improving QoL and may carry the potential to increase overall survival.
