Fostering public trust in national health data platforms: key considerations for public involvement activities for England and Switzerland
Authors: Daniore Paola , Hurndall Katherine-Helen , Zavattaro Federica , Leis Melanie , Gille Felix 
Published: February 2025

Abstract
Recent developments in national health data platforms have the potential to significantly advance medical research, improve public health outcomes, and foster public trust in data governance. Across Europe, initiatives such as the NHS Research Secure Data Environment in England and the Data Room for Health-Related Research in Switzerland are underway, reflecting examples analogous to the European Health Data Space in two non-EU nations. Policy discussions in England and Switzerland emphasize building public trust to foster participation and ensure the success of these platforms. Central to building public trust is investing efforts into developing and implementing public involvement activities. In this commentary, we refer to three national research programs, namely the UK Biobank, Genomics England, and the Swiss Health Study, which implemented effective public involvement activities and achieved high participation rates. The public involvement activities used within these programs are presented following on established guiding principles for fostering public trust in health data research. Under this lens, we provide actionable policy recommendations to inform the development of trust-building public involvement activities for national health data platforms.
The look of NATO: Comparing visual representations of military force and alliance identity in 1984 and 2021
Authors: Schlag Gabi 
Published: February 2025

Abstract
As social identities are not static but made, actors constantly invest in their public image, financially, institutionally, and aesthetically. This article examines and compares two vignettes of NATO’s public (visual) diplomacy and strategic communication. It shows the changing nature of the visual communication that NATO has applied to rationalise its military force and to fix its collective identity. In addition, the article illustrates that the changing visual communication of the alliance shapes and is shaped by its identity constructions and its quest for ontological security. For the vignette of a force comparison report from 1984, authored by the NATO Information Service, I argue that technical images are conditioning the sensible and possible by normalising the deployment of military force and disciplining anxieties about the self, deterrence, and defence. This look is based on spatial divisions, absent people, and relational objects. Compared to the vignette of NATO’s more recent social media campaign, #NATO2030, published in 2021, I argue that the latter reveals the progressive nature of the alliance by gaze to gender, diversity, and collective security. This shift from a deterrence-fixed to a human-faced episteme symbolises NATO’s ability to secure a stable self while adopting its public diplomacy.
Average Analytic Ranks of Elliptic Curves over Number Fields
Authors: Phillips Tristan 
Published: February 2025

AbstractWe give a conditional bound for the average analytic rank of elliptic curves over an arbitrary number field. In particular, under the assumptions that all elliptic curves over a number field K are modular and have L-functions which satisfy the Generalized Riemann Hypothesis, we show that the average analytic rank of isomorphism classes of elliptic curves over K is bounded above by
$(9\deg (K)+1)/2$
, when ordered by naive height. A key ingredient in the proof is giving asymptotics for the number of elliptic curves over an arbitrary number field with a prescribed local condition; these results are obtained by proving general results for counting points of bounded height on weighted projective stacks with a prescribed local condition, which may be of independent interest.
Re-Imagining Housing Provision from Markets to Welfare
Authors: Domurath Irina , Gil Diego 
Published: February 2025

Abstract
Cities around the world are facing a global housing crisis characterized by rising unaffordability, slums, gentrification, inequality, and urban segregation. The Global Financial Crisis highlighted the detrimental impact of highly financialized housing markets. This Article argues that transitioning from a market-based to a welfare-oriented approach is both necessary and feasible to ensure the right to adequate housing for everyone. This shift requires a fundamental re-imagining of housing issues, recognizing that the root causes lie in a political economy where law plays a pivotal role, crossing traditional boundaries between private and public law. We illustrate the legal foundations of adopting a welfare-based approach to the political economy of housing law, contrasting it with a market-based approach in three key areas: Land use regulation, housing finance, and rental markets.
SOME RESULTS ON THE TOPOLOGY OF ALGEBRAIC SURFACES
Authors: GURJAR RAJENDRA V. , GURJAR SUDARSHAN R. , THANDAR SOUMYADIP 
Published: February 2025

Abstract
In this article, we discuss the topology of varieties over

$\mathbb {C}$

, viz., their homology and homotopy groups. We show that the fundamental group of a quasi-projective variety has negative deficiency under a certain hypothesis on its second homology and therefore a large class of groups cannot arise as fundamental groups of varieties. For a smooth projective surface admitting a fibration over a curve, we give a detailed analysis of the homology and homotopy groups of their universal cover via a case-by-case analysis, depending on the nature of the singular fibers. For smooth, projective surfaces whose universal cover is holomorphically convex (conjecturally always true), we show that the second and third homotopy groups are free abelian, often of infinite rank.
A COMPARISON OF CATEGORICAL AND TOPOLOGICAL ENTROPIES ON WEINSTEIN MANIFOLDS
Authors: BAE HANWOOL , LEE SANGJIN 
Published: February 2025

Abstract
Let W be a symplectic manifold, and let

$\phi :W \to W$

be a symplectic automorphism. This automorphism induces an auto-equivalence

$\Phi $

defined on the Fukaya category of W. In this paper, we prove that the categorical entropy of

$\Phi $

provides a lower bound for the topological entropy of

$\phi $

, where W is a Weinstein manifold and

$\phi $

is compactly supported. Furthermore, motivated by [cCGG24], we propose a conjecture that generalizes the result of [New88, Prz80, Yom87].
AUSLANDER–IYAMA CORRESPONDENCE FOR EXACT DG CATEGORIES
Authors: CHEN XIAOFA 
Published: February 2025

Abstract
We extend the Auslander–Iyama correspondence to the setting of exact dg categories. By specializing it to exact dg categories concentrated in degree zero, we obtain a generalization of the higher Auslander correspondence for exact categories due to Ebrahimi–Nasr-Isfahani (in the case of exact categories with split retractions).
MORE ON RESTRICTED BOUNDARIES
Authors: MOUTON SONJA , HARTE ROBIN 
Published: February 2025

Abstract
In our paper [‘Linking the boundary and exponential spectra via the restricted topology’, J. Math. Anal. Appl.454 (2017), 730–745], we defined and used the restricted topology to establish certain connections among the boundary spectrum, the exponential spectrum, the topological boundary of the spectrum and the connected hull of the spectrum, and in [‘The restricted connected hull: filling the hole’, Bull. Aust. Math. Soc.109 (2024), 388–392], we presented further properties of the restricted connected hull. We now continue our investigation of the restricted boundary. In particular, we prove a number of mapping and regularity-type properties of the restricted boundary. In addition, we use this concept to provide a new characterisation of the Jacobson radical of a Banach algebra and a variation of Harte’s theorem. Finally, we establish spectral continuity results, in particular, in ordered Banach algebras.
Haemosporidian infection risk and community structure determined by duck feeding guild

Published: February 2025

Abstract
Birds possess the most diverse assemblage of haemosporidian parasites, although the true diversity is unknown due to high genetic diversity and insufficient sampling across all avian clades. Waterfowl (Order Anseriformes) are an ideal group to discover hidden parasite diversity and examine the role of host ecology in parasite transmission. Waterfowl contain 2 distinct feeding guilds, dabbling and diving, which differ in niche utilization that likely alters vector encounter rates and haemosporidian parasite risk. To determine the role of feeding guild in haemosporidian parasitism we analysed 223 blood samples collected by hunters from the upper Midwest of the United States from 2017 to 2019. Fifty-four individuals were infected by haemosporidian parasites (24·2% prevalence). Infection prevalence differed significantly between dabbling (34·9%, n = 109) and diving (14·0%, n = 114) ducks. Feeding guild was the only host trait that could predict haemosporidian infection risk, with a significantly higher risk in dabbling ducks. Twenty-four haemosporidian lineages were identified, with 9 identified for the first time. Thirteen lineages were found only in dabbling ducks, 5 only in diving ducks and 6 in both feeding guilds. Community analysis showed that each feeding guild harboured a unique parasite community. There was no phylogenetic signal of feeding guild within a phylogenetic reconstruction of North American waterfowl haemosporidian lineages. Our results demonstrate that waterfowl contain a diverse and distinct community of haemosporidian parasites. The unique composition of each feeding guild determines not only haemosporidian infection risk but also community structure. This is the first report of such an impact for waterfowl feeding guilds.
Evaluation of public health and economic impacts of dietary salt reduction initiatives on social security expenditures for cardiovascular disease control in Japan
Authors: Ikeda Nayu , Yamaguchi Miwa , Kashino Ikuko , Sugiyama Takehiro , Miura Katsuyuki , Nishi Nobuo 
Published: February 2025

Abstract
Japan has undertaken extensive efforts to reduce dietary salt intake and prevent cardiovascular diseases. Although salt consumption has decreased over time, levels remain high, highlighting the need for continued promotion of low-salt food products through collaboration among government bodies, the food industry, academia, and other stakeholders. Effective policy development requires an environment that enables stakeholders to apply scientific evidence on the cost-effectiveness of salt reduction strategies. Our ongoing research focuses on developing simulation models to predict future public health and economic impacts, supporting the establishment of voluntary targets and evidence-based approaches. These strategies aim to lower salt intake, enhance health outcomes, and manage social security expenditures, thereby fostering sustainable development in an aging society.

Abstract
The manipulation of electronic polymers’ solid-state properties through processing is crucial in electronics and energy research. Yet, efficiently processing electronic polymer solutions into thin films with specific properties remains a formidable challenge. We introduce Polybot, an artificial intelligence (AI) driven automated material laboratory designed to autonomously explore processing pathways for achieving high-conductivity, low-defect electronic polymers films. Leveraging importance-guided Bayesian optimization, Polybot efficiently navigates a complex 7-dimensional processing space. In particular, the automated workflow and algorithms effectively explore the search space, mitigate biases, employ statistical methods to ensure data repeatability, and concurrently optimize multiple objectives with precision. The experimental campaign yields scale-up fabrication recipes, producing transparent conductive thin films with averaged conductivity exceeding 4500 S/cm. Feature importance analysis and morphological characterizations reveal key design factors. This work signifies a significant step towards transforming the manufacturing of electronic polymers, highlighting the potential of AI-driven automation in material science.
A study of fracture mechanics for compact tensile specimen of Al6061-SiC metal matrix composite
Authors: Soliman Ehab Samir Mohamed Mohamed 
Published: February 2025

Abstract
The main contribution of the present work is the display of the impact of the addition of SiC into the aluminum alloy Al6061. For this reason, the Mode I stress intensity factor KI and T-stress for compact tension CT specimen are evaluated using 3D finite element analysis (FEA). The material used here in the compact tension CT specimen is Al6061-SiC metal matrix composites reinforced with various volume fractions of 4%, 6%, 10%, 12%, and 14% of SiC particles. Three different crack lengths (a/H) ratios of 0.35, 0.43, and 0.5 are considered through the analysis. Only half of the model of the cracked compact tension CT specimen with a subjected load of a magnitude P = 603 N is analyzed, and KI, T11-stress, and T33-stress are computed. From the FEA results, it is observed that the KI, T11-stress, and T33-stress are mainly influenced by the volume fractions of reinforced SiC particles. A more significant decrease in the values of KI, T11-stress, and T33-stress is found in the Al6061-14vol.%SiC composite CT specimen. Where FEA results of KI for the Al6061-14vol.%SiC composite CT specimen exhibited reduction percentages of 5.4%, 5.6%, and 5.7%, respectively, for (a/H) = 0.35, 0.43, and 0.5, as compared to those of Al6061. FEA values of T11-stress for the Al6061-14vol.%SiC composite CT specimen reduced by 5.5%, 5.6%, and 5.7%, respectively, for (a/H) = 0.35, 0.43, and 0.5, respectively, over those of Al6061. Also, the decrement percentages of FEA results of T33-stress for the Al6061-14vol.%SiC composite CT specimen over those of Al6061 were found to be 17.1%, 16.6%, and 16.5%, respectively, for (a/H) = 0.35, 0.43, and 0.5, respectively. Overall, fracture mechanics properties are improved by the addition of SiC particulates into the Al6061 alloy.

Published: February 2025

Abstract
The manifestations and progression of alcohol use disorder (AUD) are influenced by a number of contextual factors, with the current coronavirus pandemic being a significant example. This pandemic has profoundly impacted nearly all aspects of human life and has, therefore, strongly influenced patients suffering from AUD. In some cases, the pandemic has led to a reduction in severity, while in others, it has had the opposite effect. In our own work we have been investigating the negative impact of the pandemic on 45 patients with AUD who were undergoing outpatient treatment, including supervised use of disulfiram (Antabuse), in a close-knit program. A linear trend analysis demonstrated significant alterations in the retention rate over a 3-year period, encompassing the pre-pandemic, pandemic, and post-pandemic periods. During the pandemic the number of treatment cancellations virtually increased. Following the pandemic, a tendency towards the normalization of patient numbers was observed. Our data indicate a high level of vulnerability among patients with severe AUD and highlight a need for the development of alternative, possibly telemedical, treatment methods.
Comparative Impedance Characteristic Analysis of Grid‐Following and Grid‐Forming Inverters
Authors: Zhang Yonggang , Unruh Peter , Fischer Boris , Braun Martin 
Published: February 2025

ABSTRACTThis paper comprehensively analyses the impedance characteristics of grid‐following (GFL) and grid‐forming (GFM) inverters at around synchronous frequency areas considering various operating and grid connection conditions and control settings. Both analytical and from simulation extracted impedances are obtained for ensuring model plausibility. Equivalent single‐input single‐output (SISO) inverter impedances are derived for intuitive analysis. The work summarises already published results and reveals new aspects: 1) an inverter‐dominated grid tends to exhibit sequence impedance coupling, which influences the inverter SISO impedances; 2) the impedances of GFL inverters are more symmetrical about the synchronous frequency compared to the GFM inverters; 3) inverter low‐frequency SISO impedances are highly impacted by the inner‐loop control; 4) the adopted GFM control exhibits much better passivity and much less interaction stability risk than the GFL control; 5) the equivalent SISO impedances of GFM inverter are much more influenced by the connected grid conditions (e.g. grid strength and X/R ratio) compared to the GFL inverter; 6) the SISO impedances of GFL inverter are much more sensitive to grid voltage and frequency deviations and operating modes/points compared to the GFM inverter; 7) apart from passivity, the inductive/capacitive feature of GFL/GFM inverters shows high impact on interaction risks.
Manuelle Therapie und Sensomotorisches System – Teil
1
Authors: Laube Wolfgang 
Published: February 2025

ZusammenfassungIn der frühen Lebenszeit sind reversible Funktionsstörungen bereits verbreitet.
Die gestörte Biomechanik ist untrennbar mit einem veränderten afferenten Muster
der sensorischen Informationen verbunden, die zu sensomotorischen Fehlfunktionen
führen. Diese Kombination führt zu konditionellen Nachteilen und degenerativen
Entwicklungen bis hin zur Schmerzerkrankung. Die Qualität der Sensorik und
direkt daraus folgend die Qualität der Bewegungsregulation haben einen
wesentlichen Einfluss auf die Entwicklung degenerativer Veränderungen. So ist
die Sensorik der Kopf-HWS-Region ein essenzielles Element der Positionierung des
Kopfes im Raum und zum übrigen Körper, der optischen Funktion und der posturalen
Regulationen. Dysfunktionelle Afferenzmuster der zervikalen Mechanosensoren
haben somit besonders komplexe Auswirkungen auf die Sensomotorik und somit das
muskuloskelettale System.Die Manuelle Therapie sorgt für Schmerzlinderung sowie die Normalisierung der
Biomechanik und ist damit die funktionelle Voraussetzung für „eine
physiologische“ Sensomotorik, die nach der Intervention durch Training
qualifiziert und dauerhaft erhalten werden muss. Die Manuelle Therapie ist somit
vorrangig unmittelbare Schmerztherapie und das Training nachhaltige Schmerz-,
Psycho- und die Struktur reorganisierende Therapie. Dieser erste Teil gibt einen Überblick zu dem Zusammenhang zwischen Funktions-
und sensomotorischen Störungen. Der zweite Teil, der in der zweiten Ausgabe der
MSK im Jahr 2025 erscheinen wird, behandelt die komplexe Situation der
Kopf-HWS-Region.
Approaches and methods for the study of the L2 production of French segmentals and prosody
Authors: Steele Jeffrey 
Published: February 2025

Abstract
This chapter reviews common approaches and methods in studies of the effects of crosslinguistic
influence, input, and training/instruction as well as development and individual variability in second language
learners’ production of French segmentals and prosody. Discussion focuses first on methodology including speech types,
participant characteristics, and frequently used tasks and stimuli. Next, we turn to recurrent practices in the
collection, preparation, and analysis of auditory and articulatory data as well as ethical considerations. The major
contributions of L2 French pronunciation research are then outlined including the breadth of structures studied, the
uniqueness of certain phenomena investigated, innovations in research methodology including corpus-based research, and
the unique insights provided into the role of orthography. We conclude with recommendations for future avenues of
research such as the parallel study of pronunciation and other linguistic competences, the greater use of corpora, and
the integration of research findings within evidence-based pedagogy.
Researching fluency in L2 French
Authors: Wright Clare 
Published: February 2025

Abstract
This chapter evaluates current questions in researching L2 French fluency and understanding the
implications for SLA more broadly. Traditionally, research investigated fluency in narrow temporal terms of smooth
production without undue pauses or repetitions, often comparing L2 speakers to English prestige norms in
decontextualised monologic tasks. However, recent studies focus on broader discourse-level models of fluency,
recognising sociopragmatic demands of authentic dialogic interaction in plurilingual contexts, whether face to face or
online. L2 French research provides an excellent basis for adopting this more diverse, authentic view of L2 fluency,
using a broad range of empirical and corpus-based methods, including data gathered in seminal residence abroad
projects. We explore how to conduct future studies in an ethical, inclusive and transparent way, which will both
redress the imbalance of the current focus on L2 English, and provide reliable data to enrich our understanding of the
new global digitally adept L2 French speaker.
Approaches and methods in research on sociolinguistic and pragmatic competence in second language French
Authors: Howard Martin , Edmonds Amanda 
Published: February 2025

Abstract
This chapter offers a review and critique of methods and approaches characterising the
investigation of the acquisition of the interrelated areas of sociolinguistic and pragmatic competence in
second-language French. Following on an introduction to key distinguishing constructs and concepts, the chapter
respectively characterises the research investigation across the two fields in relation to learner-participants, study
design, data instruments and analysis, and the dominant linguistic features investigated. It goes on to consider the
methodological contribution of the body of research available in second-language French to subsequently identify a
roadmap of methodological directions that future research may fruitfully follow.
Researching L2 French input and instructed learning
Authors: Thomas Anita 
Published: February 2025

Abstract
This chapter presents the main approaches and methodologies for studying the relationship between
input and the development of L2 French in general and in instructional settings. The chapter first introduces research
methods that target the description of French as linguistic input to L2 learners of French and, second, research
methods in instructional settings. These two research fields are illustrated with examples mainly from recent
publications and address the study of French as input to L2 (classroom) learners, corpora as a research tool and
(experimental) classroom interventions designed for the study of specific teaching activities on L2 learning. The
chapter concludes with a number of ethical considerations specific to these two methodological approaches, followed by
a conclusion and suggestions for future research.
