AbstractAbsolute gravimeters are used in geodesy, geophysics and physics for a wide spectrum of applications. Stable gravimetric measurements over timescales from several days to decades are required to provide relevant insight into geophysical processes. Users of absolute gravimeters participate in comparisons with a metrological reference in order to monitor the temporal stability of the instruments and determine the bias to that reference. However, since no measurement standard of higher-order accuracy currently exists, users of absolute gravimeters participate in key comparisons led by the International Committee for Weights and Measures. These comparisons provide the reference values of highest accuracy compared to the calibration against a single gravimeter operated at a metrological institute. The construction of stationary, large-scale atom interferometers paves the way for a new measurement standard in absolute gravimetry used as a reference with a potential stability up to $$1\,\hbox {nm}{/}{\hbox {s}^{2}}$$

at 1 s integration time. At the Leibniz University Hannover, we are currently building such a very long baseline atom interferometer with a 10-m-long interaction zone. The knowledge of local gravity and its gradient along and around the baseline is required to establish the instrument’s uncertainty budget and enable transfers of gravimetric measurements to nearby devices for comparison and calibration purposes. We therefore established a control network for relative gravimeters and repeatedly measured its connections during the construction of the atom interferometer. We additionally developed a 3D model of the host building to investigate the self-attraction effect and studied the impact of mass changes due to groundwater hydrology on the gravity field around the reference instrument. The gravitational effect from the building 3D model is in excellent agreement with the latest gravimetric measurement campaign which opens the possibility to transfer gravity values with an uncertainty below the $${10}\,\hbox {nm}{/}{\hbox {s}^{2}}$$

Published: November 2020

Abstract
Objective
To evaluate potential MRI-defined effect modifiers of amoxicillin treatment in patients with chronic low back pain and type 1 or 2 Modic changes (MCs) at the level of a previous lumbar disc herniation (index level).

Methods
In a prospective trial (AIM), 180 patients (25–64 years; mean age 45; 105 women) were randomised to receive amoxicillin or placebo for 3 months. Primary outcome was the Roland-Morris Disability Questionnaire (RMDQ) score (0–24 scale) at 1 year. Mean RMDQ score difference between the groups at 1 year defined the treatment effect; 4 RMDQ points defined the minimal clinically important effect. Predefined baseline MRI features of MCs at the index level(s) were investigated as potential effect modifiers. The predefined primary hypothesis was a better effect of amoxicillin when short tau inversion recovery (STIR) shows more MC-related high signal. To evaluate this hypothesis, we pre-constructed a composite variable with three categories (STIR1/2/3). STIR3 implied MC-related STIR signal increases with volume ≥ 25% and height > 50% of vertebral body and maximum intensity increase ≥ 25% and presence on both sides of the disc. As pre-planned, interaction with treatment was analysed using ANCOVA in the per protocol population (n = 155).

Results
The STIR3 composite group (n = 41) and STIR signal volume ≥ 25% alone (n = 45) modified the treatment effect of amoxicillin. As hypothesised, STIR3 patients reported the largest effect (− 5.1 RMDQ points; 95% CI − 8.2 to − 1.9; p for interaction = 0.008).

Conclusions
Predefined subgroups with abundant MC-related index-level oedema on STIR modified the effect of amoxicillin. This finding needs replication and further support.

Key Points
• In the primary analysis of the AIM trial, the effect of amoxicillin in patients with chronic low back pain and type 1 or 2 MCs did not reach the predefined cut-off for clinical importance.
• In the present MRI subgroup analysis of AIM, predefined subgroups with abundant MC-related oedema on STIR reported an effect of amoxicillin.
• This finding requires replication and further support.
Comparison of survival and perioperative outcome of the colonic stent and the transanal decompression tube placement and emergency surgery for left-sided obstructive colorectal cancer: a retrospective multi-center observational study “The CODOMO study”
Authors: Endo Shungo , Kumamoto K. , Enomoto T. , Koizumi K. , Kato H. , Saida Y. 
Published: November 2020

Abstract
Purpose
Advances in endoscopic technology have led to the reevaluation of self-expandable metallic stent (SEMS) placement as a bridge-to-surgery (BTS) in patients with obstructive colorectal cancer. In Japan, after inclusion of SEMS placement as a BTS in the medical insurance coverage in 2012, this procedure has been increasingly performed. However, a transanal decompression tube (TADT) placement has been used as a BTS. We aimed to retrospectively evaluate the optimal strategy for obstructive left-sided colorectal cancer (OLCRC) by comparing SEMS and TADT placement with emergency surgery.

Methods
We included 301 patients with stage II and III OLCRC from 27 institutions. The study patients were divided into Surgery group (emergency surgery, n = 103), SEMS group (BTS by SEMS, n = 113), and TADT group (BTS by TADT, n = 85). We compared the survival and perioperative outcomes of patients in the Surgery group as a standard treatment with those in the SEMS and TADT groups.

Results
The 3-year relapse-free survival rate in patients in the Surgery group was 74.8%, while that in patients in the SEMS group and TADT group were 69.0% (p = 0.39) and 55.3% (p = 0.006), respectively. The technical success rate was not statistically different, but the clinical success rate was significantly higher in the SEMS group than in the TADT group (p = 0.0040). With regard to postoperative complications after curative surgery, the SEMS group had significantly lower of complications (≥ grade 2) than the Surgery group (p = 0.022).

Conclusion
Patients who underwent SEMS placement for OLCRC had similar oncological outcomes to patients who underwent emergency surgery.
The effect of cochlear implantation on autonomy, participation and work in postlingually deafened adults: a scoping review
Authors: Nijmeijer Hugo G. B. , Keijsers Noud M. , Huinck Wendy J. , Mylanus Emmanuel A. M. 
Published: November 2020

Abstract
Purpose
This scoping review examines the available evidence on the effect of unilateral cochlear implantation (CI) in adults with postlingual bilateral hearing loss on societal-related outcomes in terms of work, autonomy and participation.

Methods
Five databases were searched (Pubmed, Web of Science, Embase, PsycINFO and Cochrane Library). Publications were screened in three steps on inclusion criteria. Of the 4230 screened publications, 110 met the inclusion criteria and were assessed for data extraction regarding outcomes “work”, “autonomy”, “participation”. Study characteristics and key findings are presented and narratively described.

Results
Twenty-seven publications were included and categorized into retrospective (n = 3), cross-sectional (n = 18) or prospective (n = 6) study designs. Measurement or identification of number of outcomes (no) were related to work (no = 20), participation (no = 9) and autonomy or independency (no = 10). Most studies indicated benefits of CI on these outcomes. However, some studies did not or indicated additional barriers for benefits. Eleven publications primarily aimed to study one or more of our primary outcomes.

Conclusion
In this literature search, scientific databases are reviewed. The results indicate that there is a relatively small body of evidence regarding the effect of CI on the outcomes “work”, “autonomy” and “participation”. Even though there are some limitations of the current study including some overlap in outcome definitions, most included studies indicate a beneficial effect of CI on work, autonomy and participation. The lack of consensus in definitions and the small body of evidence indicates a need for additional prospective studies investigating the societal outcomes of CI in postlingually deafened adults.

Abstract
Main conclusion
Methyl jasmonate promotes the synthesis of rosmarinic acid in Salvia miltiorrhiza Bunge and Salvia castanea f. tomentosa Stib, and it promotes the latter more strongly.

Abstract
Salvia miltiorrhiza Bunge (SMB) is a traditional Chinese medicinal material, its water-soluble phenolic acid component rosmarinic acid has very important medicinal value. Salvia castanea f. tomentosa Stib (SCT) mainly distributed in Nyingchi, Tibet. Its pharmacological effects are similar to SMB, but its rosmarinic acid is significantly higher than the former. Methyl jasmonate (MJ) as an inducer can induce the synthesis of phenolic acids in SMB and SCT. However, the role of MJ on rosmarinic acid in SMB is controversial. Therefore, this study used SMB and SCT hair root as an experimental material and MJ as a variable. On one hand, exploring the controversial reports in SMB; on the other hand, comparing the differences in the mechanism of action of MJ on the phenolic acids in SMB and SCT. The content of related metabolites and the expression of key genes in the synthesis pathway of rosmarinic acid was analyzed by 1H-NMR combined with qRT-PCR technology. Our research has reached the following conclusions: first of all, MJ promotes the accumulation of rosmarinic acid and related phenolic acids in the metabolic pathways of SMB and SCT. After MJ treatment, the content of related components and gene expression are increased. Second, compared to SMB, SCT has a stronger response to MJ. It is speculated that the different responses of secondary metabolism-related genes to MJ may lead to different metabolic responses of salvianolic acid between the two.
A systematic review of EPDS cultural suitability with Indigenous mothers: a global perspective

Published: November 2020

AbstractThe Edinburgh Postnatal Depression Scale (EPDS) is used extensively as the “gold standard” perinatal depression and anxiety screening tool. This study contributes to an emerging discussion about the tool’s shortcomings, specifically around cultural suitability for use with Indigenous women. A systematic search was conducted in ProQuest, PsycINFO, MEDLINE (Web of Science), PubMed, Scopus, Informit, and CINAHL research databases, and grey literature. The quality of the body of evidence was assessed using the NHMRC Level of Evidence framework. Three studies supported the cultural validation of the EPDS with Indigenous groups in Canada (n = 2) and the USA (n = 1). The remaining eleven Australian studies demonstrated that cultural concerns were suggested by either Indigenous mothers, healthcare professionals (Indigenous and non-Indigenous), or both, though cultural concerns were more weighted from the perspectives of healthcare professionals. The quality of the evidence was not strong, and thus, there is a critical and urgent need for targeted research in this area. This review identified and recommended Indigenous-specific methodologies that can be adopted for more trustworthy, culturally safe, and effective research in this area. Given that the EPDS is currently considered gold standard in routine perinatal mental health screening practice in countries around the world, these findings raise significant concerns. Using culturally relevant research methodologies, such as the use of mixed-methods design, could lay stronger groundwork for further investigation of the broader utility and cultural relevance of the tool.

Published: November 2020

AbstractIncreasing worldwide, prevalence of carbapenem-resistant gram-negative bacteria demands urgent a need for rapid detection and accurate identification of carbapenemases. The BD Phoenix CPO detect (PCD) assay possesses an in-built capacity for parallel susceptibility testing and detection of carbapenemases. Here, the ability of the assay to detect and classify carbapenemase production was tested in a collection of carbapenem-resistant Enterobacterales and non-fermentative gram-negative rods. The ability of the PCD assay to detect and classify carbapenemases was investigated in a collection of 194 clinical, carbapenem-resistant isolates (Enterobacterales [n = 65]; non-fermentative gram-negative rods [n = 129]). AST results were compared to MICS determined by gradient diffusion to determine accuracy of the PCD assay. The accuracy of the PCD assay to detect carbapenemases was compared to the results of molecular isolate characterization using a LDT multiplex carbapenemase PCR assay. All 194 isolates classified as carbapenem-resistant by reference susceptibility testing were also classified correctly as CRO by the PCD assay. Performance analysis of the PCD assay to detect carbapenemase production revealed an overall sensitivity of 98.29% and specificity of 17.95% for the detection of carbapenemase production. For the classification of carbapenemases classes A, B, and D, the PCD correctly classified 79.17% Enterobacterales and 67.16% non-fermentative gram-negative rods. The PCD assay is a reliable tool for the detection of carbapenem resistance and allows for parallel analysis of carbapenemase production. However, while sensitivity is high, low specificity in carbapenemase detection and erroneous classification demands mandatory confirmation by alternative methods, especially in non-fermentative gram-negative bacteria.

Published: November 2020

AbstractTorsional stresses are one of the most frequent causes of intracanal separation of nickel–titanium endodontic instruments, which represents a great concern of endodontists. For this reason, torsional resistance of rotary instruments has been deeply investigated by determining all parameters that can influenced it, that can be summarized in: (1) Tooth-related factors, (2) Strategy-related factors and (3) Instrument-related factors. This study was conducted to examine the influence of shaft length on torsional resistance of a nickel–titanium rotary instrument and if it should be considered as an Instrument-related factor. With this aim, 120 Twisted Files Adaptive M-L (TFA M-L) NiTi instruments (SybronEndo, Orange, CA, USA) were divided into 6 experimental groups (n = 20), according to instruments length and size: Group 1, 20 TFA M-L1 25/08 23 mm; Group 2, 20 TFA M-L1 25/08 27 mm; Group 3, 20 TFA M-L2 35/06 23 mm; Group 4, 20 TFA M-L2 35/06 27 mm; Group 5, 20 TFA M-L3 50/04 23 mm; and Group 6, 20 TFA M-L3 50/04 27 mm. All instruments were submitted to a static torsional test, blocking each instrument at 3 mm from the tip and rotating it until its fracture. Torque to Fracture (TtF) and fragments length were registered and all data were statistically analyzed. Results showed that Groups 2, 4 and 6 had a higher TtF, respectively, than Groups 1, 3 and 5, which differ from the former just for shaft length. Group 6 showed the highest torsional resistance (1.31 ± 0.08 Ncm), whilst Group 1 the lowest (0.40 ± 0.08 Ncm). According to that, it can be stated that the longer the instrument, the higher the torsional resistance is, proving that shaft length should be considered as an important factor about torsional resistance.
Electrochemical conversion of pressurized CO2 at simple silver-based cathodes in undivided cells: study of the effect of pressure and other operative parameters
Authors: Proietto Federica , Berche François , Galia Alessandro , Scialdone Onofrio 
Published: November 2020

Abstract
Electrochemical reduction of pressurized CO2 is proposed as an interesting approach to overcome the main hurdle of the CO2 electrochemical conversion in aqueous solution, its low solubility (ca. 0.033 M), and to achieve good faradaic efficiency in CO using simple sheet silver cathodes and undivided cells, thus lowering the overall costs of the process. The effect on the process of CO2 pressure (1–30 bar), current density, nature of the supporting electrolyte and other operative conditions, such as the surface of the cathode or the mixing rate, was studied to enhance the production of CO. It was shown that pressurized conditions allow to improve drastically the current efficiency of CO (CECO). Furthermore, at relatively high pressure (20 bars), the utilization of simple sheet silver cathodes and silver electrodes with high surfaces gave similar CECO. The stability of the system was monitored for 10 h; it was shown that at a relatively high pressure (15 bar) in aqueous electrolyte of KOH using a simple plate silver cathode a constant current efficiency of CO close to 70% was obtained.

How cool is that! A new ‘construction’ and its theoretical challenges
Authors: Trotzke Andreas 
Published: November 2020

AbstractThis paper deals with the controversial connection between sentence type and illocutionary force. I focus onwh-configurations of the formHow cool is that!and demonstrate that this recent phenomenon presents some interesting challenges to approaches that are concerned with the illocutionary potential of sentence forms. In particular, the exclamation component ofHow cool is that!cannot be derived from features of exclamative syntax, but rather is a cumulative effect of exclamative intonation, the respective adjective, and the degree reading ofhow. However, the V-to-C-movement property results in a special pragmatics that proper exclamatives (i.e., without V-to-C movement:How cool that is!) lack. I claim thatHow cool is that!asks for affirmation or objection on the part of the addressee, and that this addressee-oriented component is signaled by a dedicated class of modal particles in the German version(s) ofHow cool is that!To analyze these addressee-oriented exclamations (A-EXCs), I adopt a syntactic approach to the connection between sentence types and their potential illocutionary uses and thus argue that this connection is by no means arbitrary and unrestricted. I show that both the special pragmatic function ofHow cool is that!and the corresponding distribution of modal particles in the German counterparts can be accounted for by referring to a compositional conception of sentence-type meanings, and I hence disagree with recent approaches that deal withHow cool is that!and its counterparts in German as constructions (i.e., arbitrary form-function mappings) only.
A Promising Approach in Home Visiting to Support Families Affected by Maternal Substance Use

Published: November 2020

Abstract
Introduction
Many factors influence women’s use of alcohol and other drugs while pregnant and postpartum. Substance use impacts the maternal-child relationship during the critical neonatal period. The first days and months of human development lay the foundation for health and well-being across the lifespan, making this period an important window of opportunity to interrupt the transmission of trauma and stress to the next generation. Pregnant and postpartum women with a history of substance use require specialized support services.

Methods
The Team for Infants Exposed to Substance abuse (TIES) Program provides a holistic, multi-disciplinary, community-based model to address the complex needs of families with young children affected by maternal substance use.

Results
A multi-year implementation study of the model yielded results that indicate the effectiveness of this home-based family support intervention. The model focuses on reducing maternal alcohol and other drug use, increasing positive parenting, promoting child and maternal health, and improving family income and family housing. A key component of the model is establishing a mutual, trusting relationship between the home visiting specialists and the family. Foundational to the TIES model is a family-centered, culturally competent, trauma-informed approach that includes formal interagency community partnerships

Discussion
This article describes elements of the model that lead to high retention and completion rates and family goal attainment for this unique population.
Tensor theta norms and low rank recovery
Authors: Rauhut Holger , Stojanac Željka 
Published: November 2020

AbstractWe study extensions of compressive sensing and low rank matrix recovery to the recovery of tensors of low rank from incomplete linear information. While the reconstruction of low rank matrices via nuclear norm minimization is rather well-understand by now, almost no theory is available so far for the extension to higher order tensors due to various theoretical and computational difficulties arising for tensor decompositions. In fact, nuclear norm minimization for matrix recovery is a tractable convex relaxation approach, but the extension of the nuclear norm to tensors is in general NP-hard to compute. In this article, we introduce convex relaxations of the tensor nuclear norm which are computable in polynomial time via semidefinite programming. Our approach is based on theta bodies, a concept from real computational algebraic geometry which is similar to the one of the better known Lasserre relaxations. We introduce polynomial ideals which are generated by the second-order minors corresponding to different matricizations of the tensor (where the tensor entries are treated as variables) such that the nuclear norm ball is the convex hull of the algebraic variety of the ideal. The theta body of order k for such an ideal generates a new norm which we call the θk-norm. We show that in the matrix case, these norms reduce to the standard nuclear norm. For tensors of order three or higher however, we indeed obtain new norms. The sequence of the corresponding unit-θk-norm balls converges asymptotically to the unit tensor nuclear norm ball. By providing the Gröbner basis for the ideals, we explicitly give semidefinite programs for the computation of the θk-norm and for the minimization of the θk-norm under an affine constraint. Finally, numerical experiments for order-three tensor recovery via θ1-norm minimization suggest that our approach successfully reconstructs tensors of low rank from incomplete linear (random) measurements.
