Implementation of the CMS-HIG-18-011 analysis in the MadAnalysis 5 framework (exotic Higgs decays via two pseudoscalars with two muons and two b-jets; 35.9 fb−1)
Authors: Lee Joon-Bin , Lee Jehyun 
Published: December 2020

We present the implementation in the MadAnalysis 5 framework of the CMS-HIG-18-011 search for exotic decays of the Standard Model Higgs boson, in which the Higgs boson is assumed to decay into a pair of light pseudoscalar [Formula: see text], that then further decay into a di-muon and di-[Formula: see text]-jet final state. This analysis considers proton-proton collisions at a center-of-mass energy of 13 TeV and data collected by the CMS experiment in 2016, with an integrated luminosity of 35.9 fb[Formula: see text]. We present a selection of recast predictions, obtained with MadAnalysis 5 and Delphes 3, that include a few differential distributions, yields, and efficiencies. We show that they agree at a level of a few percent with public CMS results.
Implementation of the ATLAS-SUSY-2018-06 analysis in the MadAnalysis 5 framework (electroweakinos with Jigsaw variables; 139 fb−1)
Authors: Kim Jinheung , Lee Taegyu , Kim Jeongwoo , Jang Ho 
Published: December 2020

We present the MadAnalysis 5 implementation and validation of the ATLAS-SUSY-2018-06 analysis. This analysis documents a search for electroweakinos with mass splittings larger than the [Formula: see text] boson mass. The targeted decay chain consists of electroweakinos decaying via on-shell [Formula: see text] and [Formula: see text] bosons to a three-lepton final state. The results are based on a dataset of 139 fb[Formula: see text] of proton-proton collisions, recorded by the ATLAS experiment with a center-of-mass energy of [Formula: see text] TeV between 2015 and 2018. The validation of our implementation relies on a comparison of our results against official cutflows provided by the ATLAS collaboration. The validation material provided by the ATLAS collaboration is based on well-defined benchmarks which feature chargino and neutralino associated production.
Records of Rusty-Spotted Cat Prionailurus rubiginosus (I. Geoffroy Saint-Hilaire, 1831) (Mammalia: Carnivora: Felidae) in Mount Abu Wildlife Sanctuary, Rajasthan, India
Authors: Hemant Singh  , Kariyappa Aditya 
Published: December 2020

The Rusty-spotted Cat Prionailurus rubiginosus is the smallest cat in the world and restricted to the Indian subcontinent. Although it has been recorded across India, its ecology is poorly understood. In the northwestern state of Rajasthan, it has been recorded in the dry deciduous forest landscapes of Udaipur, Sariska, and Ranthambore. We report camera trap records of the Rusty-Spotted Cat in semi evergreen and dry deciduous forests in Mount Abu Wildlife Sanctuary, Rajasthan. In the current study from September 2017 to April 2018, out of 1,800 camera trapping nights the species was recorded on ten occasions, at four different locations in Mount Abu Wildlife Sanctuary.

One of the common challenges for wildlife rehabilitators and conservationists is dealing with displaced young animals, needing intervention and help. Most commonly, such displaced animals are moved to zoos or rescue centers where they are hand-raised. In some cases, the hand-raised animals are rehabilitated back in the wild following suitable protocols. For young animals that are not injured or ill, however, reuniting them with their mothers in the wild might be the best option. There are few reports on such reunion efforts. We report successful reunions of 26 Rusty-spotted Cat Prionailurus rubiginosus kittens with their mothers in the period of six years in the Junnar Forest Division, Maharashtra, India. The kittens found by the villagers were examined for injuries or signs of sickness, and physiological parameters were recorded. If found healthy, they were placed in a plastic basket at the same location in the evening of the same day for a reunion with their mothers. In all cases, the mother cat was in the vicinity and took the kittens away after a brief period. The success of reunion effort was confirmed by direct observation or vocalization of the kittens combined with the presence of pugmarks of an adult cat at the site, or just by the presence and appearance of pugmarks. The results of our efforts show that displaced kittens of small wild cats can be successfully reunited with their mothers, provided that the time gap between separation and reunion effort is minimized.

AbstractThis paper studies the link between self-image and behavior among those who face stigma due to poverty and social exclusion. Using a randomized field experiment with sex workers in Kolkata (India), we examine whether a psychological intervention to mitigate adverse effects of internalized stigma can induce behavior change. We find significant improvements in participants' self-image, their savings choices, and health clinic visits. Administrative data confirm that these changes in savings and preventive health behavior persist 15 and 21 months later, respectively. Our findings highlight the potential of purely psychological interventions to improve the life choices and outcomes of marginalized groups.
Slaves, Philanthropy and Pious Endowments in Early Modern Istanbul
Authors: Wagner Veruschka 
Published: December 2020

Abstract
This contribution aims to look through a common lens at two important components of early modern Ottoman society, namely the endowment system and the institution of slavery. The relationship and intersections of these two fields will be examined on the basis of Istanbul’s court records from the second half of the sixteenth and the seventeenth centuries, in order to pursue the question of where and how (manumitted) slaves could benefit from endowments. The examination of individual cases found in the court records provides information about possible ways in which (former) slaves took on different roles and benefited from the charitable intentions of the founders of endowments.
Ecological Civilization and Dispute Resolution in the BRI
Authors: Corne Peter , Zhu Vivien 
Published: December 2020

Abstract
One of the main challenges facing China in executing its Belt and Road Initiative is dealing with the complexities arising from its interactions with disparate cultures, ecosystems, societies and their associated laws and local practices. This article argues that intrinsic to the concept of ecological civilization is its incorporation of a broad set of culturally derived norms and customs that represent an inclusive approach to cultural and ecological diversity. The article advocates the adoption of mediation along the Belt and Road as the primary or ‘first line’ dispute resolution tool, with a third party neutral acting as a mediator. As a ‘facilitative’ rather than an ‘adjudicative’ process, mediation under the guidance of a well-trained mediator can steer the parties to the settlement of a dispute related to the environment and natural resources in a way that is consistent with the principles of ecological civilization while respecting the broader concerns of each participant under their respective ‘living laws’. The article maintains that as a ‘second line’ or alternatively ‘parallel line’ of dispute resolution, arbitration will continue to be critically important for BRI disputes, so measures that will oblige arbitrators to incorporate ecological principles into their deliberations are also recommended.
Assimilation of the SCATSAR-SWI with SURFEX: Impact of Local Observation Errors in Austria

Published: December 2020

AbstractThe proper determination of soil moisture on different scales is important for applications in a variety of fields. We aim to develop a high-level soil moisture product with high temporal and spatial resolution by assimilating the multilayer soil moisture product SCATSAR-SWI (Scatterometer Synthetic Aperture Radar Soil Water Index) into the surface model SURFEX. In addition, we probe the impact of the findings on the numerical weather prediction (NWP) in Austria. The data assimilation system consists of the NWP model AROME and the SURFEX Offline Data Assimilation, which provide atmospheric forcing and soil moisture fields as mutual input. To address the known sensitivity of the employed simplified extended Kalman filter to the specification of errors, we compute the observation error variances of the SCATSAR-SWI locally using Triple Collocation Analysis and implement them into the assimilation system. The verification of the forecasted 2 m temperature and relative humidity against measurements of Austrian weather stations shows that the actual impact of the local error approach on the atmospheric forecast is slightly positive to neutral compared to the standard error approach, depending on the time of the year. The direct verification of the soil moisture analysis against a gridded water balance product reveals a degradation of the unbiased root-mean-square error for small observation errors.

Background: Shoulder arthroscopy is one of the most commonly performed orthopaedic procedures used to treat a variety of conditions, with >500,000 procedures performed each year. Purpose: To systematically review the randomized controlled trials (RCTs) on pain control after shoulder arthroscopy in the acute postoperative setting and to ascertain the best available evidence in managing pain after shoulder arthroscopy to optimize patient outcomes. Study Design: Systematic review and meta-analysis. Methods: A systematic review of the literature was performed based on the PRISMA (Preferred Reporting Items for Systematic Meta-Analyses) guidelines. Studies were included if they were RCTs evaluating interventions to reduce postoperative pain after shoulder arthroscopy: nerve blocks, nerve block adjuncts, subacromial injections, patient-controlled analgesia, oral medications, or other modalities. Meta-analyses and network meta-analyses were performed where appropriate. Results: Our study included 83 RCTs. Across 40 studies, peripheral nerve blocks were found to significantly reduce postoperative pain and opioid use, but there was no significant difference among the variable nerve blocks in the network meta-analysis. However, continuous interscalene block did have the highest P-score at most time points. Nerve block adjuncts were consistently shown across 18 studies to prolong the nerve block time and reduce pain. Preoperative administration was shown to significantly reduce postoperative pain scores ( P < .05). No benefit was found in any of the studies evaluating subacromial infusions. Conclusion: Continuous interscalene block resulted in the lowest pain levels at most time points, although this was not significantly different when compared with the other nerve blocks. Additionally, nerve block adjuncts may prolong the postoperative block time and improve pain control. There is promising evidence for some oral medications and newer modalities to control pain and reduce opioid use. However, we found no evidence to support the use of subacromial infusions or patient-controlled analgesia.
When Coadministration Cannot Be Avoided: Real World Experience of Direct Acting Antivirals for the Treatment of Hepatitis C Virus Infection in Patients on First Generation Anticonvulsants
Authors: Natali Kayla M. , Jimenez Humberto R. , Slim Jihad 
Published: December 2020

Background Coadministration of direct-acting antivirals (DAAs) for chronic hepatitis C virus (HCV) infection and first generation anticonvulsants is currently not recommended due to a drug-drug interaction that could potentially lead to subtherapeutic DAA levels and subsequent treatment failure. Currently, there is limited data evaluating this interaction and timely treatment of HCV infection with DAAs is imperative to prevent liver-related morbidity and mortality. Methods A retrospective case series evaluating clinical cure of chronic HCV infection, defined as sustained virologic response (SVR) 12 weeks after completion of DAA therapy, in patients from three inner-city clinics who remained on first generation anticonvulsants during the treatment course. Results A total of five patients received standard dose DAAs for treatment of chronic HCV infection while being maintained on first generation anticonvulsants. The most common HCV genotype was 1a (80%), followed by 1b (20%). The majority of patients were treated with glecaprevir/pibrentasvir (80%) for eight weeks and one patient was treated with ledipasvir/sofosbuvir for 12 weeks. Anticonvulsant regimens consisted of carbamazepine, phenytoin, phenytoin plus phenobarbital, phenytoin plus levetiracetam, and phenobarbital plus lacosamide. All five patients achieved sustained virologic response (SVR) despite this drug-drug interaction. Conclusion Although every effort to prevent concomitant use of DAAs and potent inducers should be made, clinical cure may still be achieved in patients whom cannot avoid this coadministration.

Published: December 2020

Background Intra-articular distal radius fractures with small volar lunate facet fragments can be challenging to address with volar plate fixation alone. Volar locked plating with supplementary spring wire fixation has been previously described in a small series but has not been further described in the literature. We hypothesized that this technique can provide adequate fixation for volar lunate facet fragments smaller than 15 mm in length, which are at risk of displacement. Methods We completed a retrospective chart review (2015-2019) of patients who underwent volar locked plating with the addition of supplementary spring wire fixation for intra-articular distal radius fractures with a volar lunate facet fragment (<15 mm). Postoperative radiographs were assessed to evaluate union, evidence of hardware failure, escape of the volar lunate facet fragment, and postoperative volar tilt. Clinical outcome was assessed with wrist flexion/extension, arc of pronosupination, and Quick Disabilities of the Arm, Shoulder, and Hand Score ( QuickDASH) scores. Results Fifteen patients were identified, of which all went on to fracture union. There were no hardware failures or escape of the volar lunate facet fragment at final follow-up. One patient underwent hardware removal for symptoms of flexor tendon irritation. The mean wrist flexion was 59°, wrist extension was 70°, pronation was 81°, and supination was 76°. The mean QuickDASH score was 18.5. The mean postoperative volar tilt was 3.6°. Conclusions Supplementary spring wire fixation with standard volar plating provides stable fixation for lunate facet fragments less than 15 mm. This technique is a safe and reliable alternative to commercially available fragment-specific implants.

Background There is growing research support for the use of mindfulness training (MT) in schools, but almost no high-quality evidence about different training models for people wishing to teach mindfulness in this setting. Effective dissemination of MT relies on the development of scalable training routes. Objective To compare 4 training routes for school teachers wishing to deliver MT differing in intensity and potential scalability, considering teaching competency, training acceptability, and cost-effectiveness. Methods Schools were randomized to an existing route comprising an 8-session instructor-led personal mindfulness course, combined with 4-day MT program training, or 1 of 3 more scalable, lower intensity, alternatives: an instructor-led personal mindfulness course combined with 1-day MT program training, a self-taught personal mindfulness course (delivered through a course book) combined with 4-day MT program training, and a self-taught personal mindfulness course combined with 1-day MT program training. Results Attrition from training was substantial across all routes. The instructor-led course was more effective than the self-taught course in increasing teachers’ personal mindfulness skills. Even the most intensive (existing) training route brought only 29% of the teachers commencing training, and 56% of those completing the study protocol, to the required minimum competency threshold (an advanced beginner rating on an adapted version of the Mindfulness-based Interventions Teaching Assessment Criteria). The differences in levels of competency achieved by existing training compared with the more scalable alternatives were modest, with economic evaluation suggesting that the existing route was both more expensive and more effective than lower intensity alternatives, but with no statistically significant differences between routes. Conclusions This research questions the move toward abbreviating teacher training to increase scalability and suggests instead that many teachers require additional support to ensure competency from first delivery of MT in the classroom.

Published: December 2020

Background: Patients who sustain a rotator cuff retear after arthroscopic rotator cuff repair are generally considered to have worse clinical outcomes compared with patients with an intact rotator cuff. However, some patients have good clinical outcomes, even with a retorn rotator cuff. Purpose: To report the clinical outcomes of nonoperative treatment for rotator cuff retears and analyze the factors affecting clinical outcomes after a retear. Study Design: Cohort study; Level of evidence, 3. Methods: Patients who underwent arthroscopic rotator cuff repair between 2011 and 2017 were reviewed, and those with a full-thickness retear on postoperative magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) were included in this study. According to their pre- and postoperative scores on the pain visual analog scale (pVAS) and functional visual analog scale (fVAS), the patients were divided into 3 groups: (1) mild group (pVAS ≤ 1 and fVAS ≥ 8), (2) moderate group (pVAS ≤ 1 and fVAS ≤ 7 or pVAS 2-3 and fVAS ≥ 8), and (3) severe group (pVAS ≥ 3 and fVAS ≤ 7). Preoperative data (dominant hand involvement, heavy labor) and tear size on 6-month postoperative MRI were analyzed as factors affecting clinical outcomes. Results: A total of 712 patients were reviewed, and a retear was observed in 62 patients (8.7%). Of the patients with retears, 52 were included in this study: 25 men and 27 women with a mean age of 62.6 years (range, 49-80 years) and mean follow-up period of 40 months (range, 24-88 months). According to the pVAS and fVAS scores, 25 patients (48.1%) were classified into the mild group, 9 (17.3%) into the moderate group, and 18 (34.6%) into the severe group. There were no significant differences in preoperative data among the 3 groups. The tear size in the coronal and sagittal planes decreased by 5.1 and 6.6 mm, respectively, in the mild group but increased by 2.8 and 1.4 mm, respectively, in the severe group. Conclusion: In patients with retears, 48.1% had only mild symptoms at a mean of 40 months postoperatively. Patients with severe symptoms tended to have an increased tear size on postoperative MRI.

Published: December 2020

Background: The impact of basal ganglia stroke on mental health is better described in adults than in children. We report 2 children with significant mental health issues after basal ganglia stroke. Case Reports: Patient 1, an 8-year-old boy, had mild anxiety before his left basal ganglia stroke. Post-stroke, he developed severe anxiety, obsessions, depression, and attention deficit hyperactivity disorder, in addition to a right hemiplegia and some mild chorea. He gradually improved over 3 years with psychiatric care and medication but continued to have residual symptoms. Patient 2, a 10-year-old boy, had no history of mental health issues before his right basal ganglia stroke. Post-stroke, he developed significant anxiety and mild depression, along with a left hemiplegia. He improved over 9 months and returned to his mental health baseline. Conclusions: Mental health issues after basal ganglia stroke in children can be significant, and recovery can take months to years.
