Refugees Welcome!? The Controversial Topic of Migration in German Museums
Authors: Pülm Felix 
Published: August 2020

Abstract
This article deals with the representation of migration in German museums. Three exhibitions are examined, all of which dealt with the topic of migration in the year 2018. The exhibitions included are: “2 Million Years of Migration” presented in the Archaeological Museum Hamburg, “Survival Stories” from A to Z in the House of History Baden-Württemberg in Stuttgart, and “Forum Migration”, shown in the German Emigration Center Bremerhaven. The essay shows that all three exhibitions purposefully participated in the public debate on migration and brought new perspectives and elements into the discussion. However, both the focal points of the exhibitions and the presentation were different. They either concentrated on the fate of migrants who came to Germany in recent years or considered the overall picture of migration and presented it as a core element of human development. Presentations were based on the exhibition of personal belongings of migrants, on hands-on activities or multimedia installations that allowed visitors to get involved.

Published: August 2020

Abstract
Despite the ever-progressing technological advances in producing data in health and clinical research, the generation of new knowledge for medical benefits through advanced analytics still lags behind its full potential. Reasons for this obstacle are the inherent heterogeneity of data sources and the lack of broadly accepted standards. Further hurdles are associated with legal and ethical issues surrounding the use of personal/patient data across disciplines and borders. Consequently, there is a need for broadly applicable standards compliant with legal and ethical regulations that allow interpretation of heterogeneous health data through in silico methodologies to advance personalized medicine. To tackle these standardization challenges, the Horizon2020 Coordinating and Support Action EU-STANDS4PM initiated an EU-wide mapping process to evaluate strategies for data integration and data-driven in silico modelling approaches to develop standards, recommendations and guidelines for personalized medicine. A first step towards this goal is a broad stakeholder consultation process initiated by an EU-STANDS4PM workshop at the annual COMBINE meeting (COMBINE 2019 workshop report in same issue). This forum analysed the status quo of data and model standards and reflected on possibilities as well as challenges for cross-domain data integration to facilitate in silico modelling approaches for personalized medicine.
Vitamin D status is related to severity at onset of diabetes and worse glycemic control
Authors: Segovia-Ortí Raquel , Bennassar Antonia Barceló , de Sotto-Esteban Diego , Cortés Pilar Sanchís 
Published: August 2020

Abstract

Objectives
Our aim is to evaluate whether 25-hydroxyvitamin D at onset of type 1 diabetes mellitus (T1DM) would influence analytical variables of worse prognosis of the disease at the beginning and after one year of development.

Methods
A retrospective study of pediatric patients (0–14 years) diagnosed with T1DM with initial measurements of 25-hydroxyvitamin D was performed at Son Espases Hospital, between March 2012 and April 2019 (n=67).

Results
Vitamin D insufficiency was related to age, glycosylated hemoglobin, and creatinine. An improvement in glycosylated hemoglobin was found in subjects whose baseline serum 25(OH)D was >30 ng/mL. Bivariate correlation analysis adjusted by age showed a significantly positive correlation of vitamin D with pH (r=0.279), bicarbonate (r=0.338), and free levothyroxine (r=0.293). Independent variables associated with vitamin D insufficiency were age (odds ratio [OR]=1.2) and winter season (OR=10.52).

Conclusion
Hypovitaminosis D is related to biochemical variables showing greater severity and higher glycosylated hemoglobin at diagnosis: higher creatinine, lower free levothyroxine, pH, and bicarbonate. Unsupplemented patients with baseline deficiency showed persistently worse glycemic control vs. those with baseline repletion.

Published: August 2020

Abstract

Objectives
Intra-articular and/or periarticular corticosteroid injection (IACI) is a common procedure in pediatric rheumatology. Despite many adult studies demonstrating a significant risk of adrenal insufficiency (AI) following the procedure, very little evidence is available in the pediatric literature regarding this risk. The main goal of this study is to evaluate the prevalence of AI in children with chronic arthritis following IACI.

Methods
This is a retrospective study including children aged 0-18 years who had an IACI from June 2017 to July 2019. An 8:00 morning cortisol (8MC) sample was drawn around two weeks after the injection, and an ACTH 1mcg stimulation test was performed if morning cortisol level was low. AI was defined as an 8MC under 50 nmol/L or an abnormal ACTH stimulation test. Risks factors for AI and its duration were assessed.

Results
Sixty patients were included in this study. AI prevalence was 30% with 18 of 60 affected patients. The corticosteroid dose injected was statistically associated with the development of AI. Median duration of AI was 181 days for the nine patients who were followed up until resolution of AI. Four patients developed symptoms of AI, namely fatigue (2 of 4), nausea (2 of 4) and abdominal pain (3 of 4). None were hospitalized or died.

Conclusions
In this cohort of children with chronic arthritis who had an IACI, we found a high prevalence of AI. Monitoring and counseling of such complication is warranted until further evidence is available.
The Problem of the First Belief: Group Agents and Responsibility
Authors: Hirvonen Onni 
Published: August 2020

AbstractAttributing moral responsibility to an agent requires that the agent is a capable member of a moral community. Capable members of a moral community are often thought of as moral reasoners (or moral persons) and, thus, to attribute moral responsibility to collective agents would require showing that they are capable of moral reasoning. It is argued here that those theories that understand collective reasoning and collective moral agency in terms of collective decision-making and commitment – as is arguably the case with Christian List and Philip Pettit’s theory of group agency – face the so-called “problem of the first belief” that threatens to make moral reasoning impossible for group agents. This paper introduces three possible solutions to the problem and discusses the effects that these solutions have in regard to the possibility of attributing moral responsibility to groups.
Actualistic Foundation of Possibilism
Authors: Galvan Sergio 
Published: August 2020

Abstract
In this article I defend a form of classical possibilism with an actualist foundation. As a matter of fact, I believe that this position is more in keeping with the classical metaphysical tradition. According to this form of possibilism, I construe possible objects as possible non-existing objects of an existing producing power. Consequently, they are nothing vis-à -vis the modality of their own actual being, although they do exist with regard to the modality of the producing power’s being. The actualist requirement prescribed by the Frege-Quinean criterion of the quantification domain is thus fulfilled; indeed, really possible objects are not actual objects, but their possibility is actual.
Mobilizing foreign language students for multilingual crisis translation in Shanghai
Authors: Zheng Yongyan 
Published: August 2020

Abstract
This paper examines the multilingual translation efforts of a group of university student volunteers during the COVID-19 outbreak in Shanghai. Data were collected through semi-structured interviews of the volunteer team leader, team members, and a local community health worker. Findings identified time constraints, limited language proficiency, and limited technical knowledge as the major challenges confronting the university volunteers. In order to overcome the challenges, they worked in close collaboration and used translingual and network strategies to facilitate prompt and high-quality crisis translation. Findings suggest that foreign language university students in local universities may serve as readily available multilingual resources and can be mobilized in prompt response to the grassroots multilingual needs of the local community in times of crisis. The paper ends with implications for measures and strategies to enhance effective emergency language service and crisis communication for global multilingual cities.

Art and Ontography
Authors: Weir Simon 
Published: August 2020

AbstractGraham Harman describes the allure of art as the tension and fusion of a real object to sensual qualities so that it makes it seem that the inwardness of reality is opened to us. Yet real objects are withdrawn; how are we aware of their fusion? Since Harman’s ontology mandates that contact between real objects occurs only through sensual objects, this essay explores the idea that art’s allure must be a tension between sensual objects that draw the experiencer to believe, or alieve, they are in contact with the withdrawn real. By looking at the examples in representational painting and sleight of hand magic, we see that ontographic art objects use at least four, carefully separated sensual objects to produce their aesthetic effect. The conclusion summarises allure as a sensual object process, speculates on art’s dialetheic confusion of sensual and real objects giving an enduring allure to idealism, and notes potential motifs of an infra-realist resistance.

Abstract
In patients with metastatic melanoma the advent of targeted therapy and immune checkpoint inhibitors has transformed the management of advanced and metastatic disease, resulting in improved outcomes. Neopterin is a biomarker of immune activation increased in cancer as well as in other conditions associated with immune activation. We present a case of a patient with advanced metastatic melanoma responding to the combination targeted therapy with dabrafenib and trametinib. The treatment was complicated by a fever that was accompanied by a marked rise in serum and urinary neopterin concentrations. Present case report illustrates not only the efficacy of combined targeted therapy, but also the utilization of neopterin measurements in the diagnosis and monitoring of pyrexia in patients with metastatic malignant melanoma.

Abstract
Samples of Egyptian monazite ore obtained from black sand of Abu-Khashaba, Rashied (Rosetta) area on the Mediterranean Sea coast were analyzed for some lanthanides and coexisting elements using instrumental neutron activation analysis (INAA). The analyses were carried out qualitatively and quantitatively for the elements Ce, Nd, Eu, Gd, Tb, Yb and Sc, La as well as the accompanying elements Co, Cr, Fe, Hf, Nb, Zn, Zr in addition to the actinides Th and U; whereas after relatively longer decay time the following lanthanide elements were analyzed: Ce, Nd, Eu, Gd, Tb, Yb and Sc, beside the accompanying elements Co, Cr, Fe, Hf, Nb, Zn, Zr and Th. Two certified reference materials (CRM) were used in this study. For sorption studies, radioactive isotopes 141Ce, 160Tb, 169Yb, 95Zr, 181Hf, and 95Nb were prepared by neutron irradiation to trace the adsorption behaviors of their corresponding elements under certain conditions. Furthermore, radiochemical separation of the analyzed elements in the irradiated monazite samples in sulfuric acid solutions was carried out. Ion exchange technique was applied under static and dynamic conditions and the employed inorganic ion exchangers were locally synthesized and characterized using FT-IR and scanning electron microscopy (SEM) tools. Good group separation of the analyzed lanthanide elements from the accompanying elements was achieved.
Rate determining step of reduction Np(VI) by organic reagents from 30%TBP/Kerosene to nitrate solution
Authors: Li Chuanbo , Yan Taihong , Xiao Songtao , Zheng Weifang 
Published: August 2020

Abstract
A series of single stage trials were conducted using six reducing reagents to investigate the rate determining step during Np(VI) reduction back-extraction from 30%TBP/Kerosene to HNO3 solution under the same conditions. The six reducing reagents included: acetohydroxamic acid, N,N-dimethylhydroxylamine, N,N-diethylhydroxylamine, 2-hydroxyethylhydrazine, methylhydrazine and N,N-dimethylhydrazine. Moreover, the back-extraction of Np(V) from 30%TBP/Kerosene to HNO3 solution without reducing reagent was conducted with the same concentrations of Np and HNO3. The experimental results indicate the rate of Np(VI) reduction in the two-phase system is determined mainly by the rate of Np(V) mass transfer from 30%TBP/Kerosene to HNO3 solution, whose mass transfer kinetics is far slower than previously estimated. The rate determining step is a slow chemical reaction as: NpO2NO3·TBP = NpO2
+ + NO3
− + TBP.
Is the Elimination of Food Subsidies the Right Policy to Address Lebanon’s Public Finance Crisis?
Authors: Makdissi Paul , Seif Edine Mohamad 
Published: August 2020

AbstractIn this paper, we use a positional dominance approach to assess the desirability of eliminating food subsidies in Lebanon. The analysis is based on aggregate information from the 2004 to 2005 National Survey of Households Living Conditions. We use this aggregate information on expenditure patterns to reconstructroughestimates ofs-concentration curves and efficiency-cost ratio sets. Evidences suggest that the Lebanese government should probably find other avenues to reduce the fiscal deficit.
Cooled radiofrequency for the treatment of sacroiliac joint pain – impact on pain and psychometrics: a retrospective cohort study
Authors: Kleinmann Barbara , Wolter Tilman , Weyerbrock Astrid 
Published: August 2020

Abstract

Objectives
Cooled radiofrequency (cRF) is an effective treatment for sacroiliac pain. In contrast to conventional radiofrequency denervation, this technique allows enlarging the area of denervation by cooling the radiofrequency probe. However, there is sparse knowledge about the impact of interventional procedures like cRF treatment of sacroiliac joint pain on psychological comorbidities. The aim of this retrospective study was to evaluate the outcome of cRF in chronic pain patients regarding the psychological outcomes anxiety, depression, sleep quality and pain related disability.

Methods
In this retrospective observational study 29 interventions were performed over a period of two years in 28 patients. Pre- and post-interventional pain levels, depression and anxiety scores, pain-related disability, treatment satisfaction and sleep quality were assessed by standardized and validated questionnaires. Pain medication was recorded prior to the intervention and at follow-up.

Results
Hospital Anxiety and Depression Scale (HADS-D) scores for depression showed a statistically significant reduction after therapy which did not remain significant after Bonferroni-Holm correction. Anxiety as measured by the HADS-A score did not show a statistically significant change. No statistically significant improvement was observed in the pain disability index. Patients reported fewer sleep disorders after treatment. Mean pain (NRS) was statistically significantly reduced 1 week post intervention and at time of follow-up. There was no clear reduction of analgesic medication.

Conclusions
Besides pain reduction, our data show a positive influence on sleep quality, possibly on depression, but not on anxiety and pain disability.
Correlation between calcium, water contents and ultrasonographic appearance of atherosclerotic lesions of carotid artery lesions
Authors: Fülesdi Béla , Farkas Szabolcs , Gyöngyösi Zoltán , Siró Péter , Bereczki Dániel , Bacsó József , Csiba László 
Published: August 2020

Abstract

Background
We tested the hypothesis whether there is a correlation between the echogenicity and calcium and water contents of carotid plaques.

Patients and methods
Ninety carotid befurcations from 45 deceased patients were removed during autopsy. Thirty-four plaques were categorized as homogenous echolucent (HEL), homogenous echogenic (HEG) and heterogenous (HE) plaques based on premortem B-mode image. Water content was expressed in % of wet weight. Ca was determined by proton-induced X-ray emission and expressed in ppm. Relative optical density of the B-mode images was analyzed offline using a computer program.

Results
HEL plaques had lower Ca content (medians and IQRs: 6,145 [4,465–6,536 ppm]) compared to HEG (74,100 [15,300–1,44,500−ppm]), P ≤ 0.001). HE plaques showed an intermediate calcium content (7,310 [4,840–9,920 ppm]) that was statistically not different from echolucent plaques. Water content of HEG plaques was statistically not different from HEL and HE (HEG:53.5 [35.5–64%], HEL: 73.5 [69.7–78.5%], HE: 70.6 [67.4–73.9%]). HEG plaques had the highest relative optical densities (196 [188–217%]). HEL and HE had similar relative optical densities (HEL: 176 [164–187%], HE: 164 [144–188%], respectively). A significant positive correlation was found between the Ca content and relative optical density of plaques.

Conclusions
Echogenicity of carotid plaques increases along with their calcium content. Water content may be an important factor in differentiation of different plaques.
Impaired consciousness due to injury of the ascending reticular activating system in a patient with bilateral pontine infarction: A case report
Authors: Kwak Soyoung , Chang Min Cheol 
Published: August 2020

Abstract
The ascending reticular activating system (ARAS) is known to play an essential role in maintaining arousal and consciousness. In this report, we describe the case of a patient with impaired consciousness due to injury of the ARAS after bilateral pontine infarction. A 73-year-old female patient presented with anterior chest pain to the Emergency Department of our university hospital. She was diagnosed with chronic stable angina pectoris, three-vessel disease, and chronic total occlusion of the left anterior descending artery by coronary angiography and received conservative treatment. After five days, she showed deep drowsy mentality and brain MRI revealed bilateral paramedian pontine infarction. Four weeks after the pontine infarction, she showed severely impaired consciousness, with a Glasgow Coma Scale score of 7 (eye-opening: 2, best verbal response: 2, and best motor response: 3). Coma Recovery Scale-Revised score was 10 (auditory function: 2, visual function: 3, motor function: 2, verbal function: 2, communication: 0, and arousal: 1). Results of diffusion tensor tractography (DTT) for the ARAS showed decreased neural connectivity in the left lower dorsal ARAS, both lower ventral ARAS, and both upper ARAS. To the best of our knowledge, this is the first report of injury to the ARAS in bilateral pontine infarction diagnosed by DTT. We presume that our report would provide clinicians a better understanding of the mechanism of impaired consciousness in patients with pontine infarction.

Published: August 2020

Abstract
The scandium-rich phase Sc14Co3.10In2.59 has been synthesized by a direct reaction of the elements in a sealed tantalum ampoule in a high-frequency furnace. Single crystals were obtained by slow cooling of the product. The Sc14Co3.10In2.59 structure was refined from single-crystal X-ray diffractometer data: Lu14Co3In3 type, P42/nmc, a = 889.13(13), c = 2138.7(4) pm, wR2 = 0.0483, 1636 F
2 values, and 64 variables. Sc14Co3.10In2.59 completes the series of the rare earth metal-rich phases RE
14Co3In3. The structure refinement revealed defects on the Co1 site (84.7(5)% occupancy on 8g) and a mixed occupancy of 59.1(7)% In1/40.9(7)% Co3 on the 4c site. The structure is built up by a dense condensation of Co@Sc6 trigonal prisms and In2@InSc11 and In1/Co2@Co2Sc10 icosahedra. An interpenetration of the In2@InSc11 icosahedra leads to dumb-bell formation with an In2–In2 distance of 289 pm. The Sc14Co3.10In2.59 structure is stabilized by substantial Sc–Sc bonding (316–360 pm Sc–Sc).
