ABSTRACT

Purpose
To investigate associations between hormonal contraceptive use and physical performance, body composition, and musculoskeletal injuries in basic military training.

Methods
Female British Army recruits (n = 450) were grouped as nonusers (n = 182), combined oral contraceptive users (COCP; n = 184), or progestin-only users (POC; n = 144). Physical performance (2.4-km run, lift strength, leg power), body composition, iron and vitamin D status, and bone metabolism were measured at the start (week 1) and end (week 13) of training. Lower body musculoskeletal injuries were recorded from medical records.

Results
Training decreased 2.4-km run time (−3.7%) and fat mass (−9.6%), and increased lift strength (4.5%), leg power (1.5%), lean mass (5.4%), and whole-body (0.9%), arms (1.8%), and legs (1.4%) areal bone mineral density (P ≤ 0.015); the training response was not different between groups (P ≥ 0.173). Lift strength was lower in COCP users than nonusers (P = 0.044). Whole-body, trunk, and leg areal bone mineral densities were lower in POC users than nonusers and/or COCP users (P ≤ 0.041). There were no associations between hormonal contraceptive use and musculoskeletal or bone stress injury (P ≥ 0.429). Training did not change ferritin (P = 0.968), but decreased hemoglobin and total 25-hydroxyvitamin-D, and increased parathyroid hormone, c-telopeptide cross-links of type 1 collagen (βCTX), and procollagen type 1 N-terminal propeptide (PINP; P ≤ 0.005); the training response was not different between groups (P ≥ 0.368). Total 25-hydroxyvitamin-D was higher, and βCTX and PINP were lower, in COCP users than nonusers and POC users; parathyroid hormone was lower in COCP users than nonusers; and βCTX and PINP were higher in POC users than nonusers (P ≤ 0.017).

Conclusions
Hormonal contraceptive use was not associated with performance or injury outcomes in military training.

ABSTRACT

Purpose
Ingestion of whey protein increases myofibrillar but not muscle connective protein synthesis rates. Recently, we defined a whey and collagen protein blend (5:1 ratio) to optimize post-prandial plasma amino acid availability. Here, we assessed the ability of this blend to increase myofibrillar and muscle connective protein synthesis rates at rest and during early recovery from exercise.

Methods
In a randomized, double-blind, parallel design, 28 men (age: 25 ± 5 yr; body mass index: 23.6 ± 2.3 kg·m−2) were randomly allocated to ingest either 30 g of protein (25 g whey/5 g collagen; BLEND, n = 14) or a noncaloric placebo (PLA, n = 14) following a single session of unilateral leg resistance-type exercise. Participants received primed continuous l-[ring-13C6]-phenylalanine infusions with blood and muscle biopsy samples collection for 5 h post-prandially to assess myofibrillar and muscle connective protein synthesis rates.

Results
Protein ingestion strongly increased plasma amino acid concentrations, including plasma leucine and glycine concentrations (P < 0.001), with no changes following placebo ingestion (P > 0.05). Post-prandial myofibrillar and muscle connective protein synthesis rates were higher in the exercised compared with the rested leg (P < 0.001). In addition, myofibrillar protein synthesis rates were higher in BLEND compared with PLA in both the rested (0.038 ± 0.008 and 0.031 ± 0.006%·h−1, respectively; P < 0.05) and exercised (0.052 ± 0.011 and 0.039 ± 0.009%·h−1, respectively; P < 0.01) leg. Muscle connective protein synthesis rates were higher in BLEND compared with PLA in the rested (0.062 ± 0.013 and 0.051 ± 0.010%·h−1, respectively; P < 0.05), but not the exercised (0.090 ± 0.021 and 0.079 ± 0.016%·h−1, respectively; P = 0.11) leg.

Conclusions
Ingestion of a whey (25 g) plus collagen (5 g) protein blend increases both myofibrillar and muscle connective protein synthesis rates at rest and further increases myofibrillar but not muscle connective protein synthesis rates during recovery from exercise in recreationally active, young men.
Lipomatous ependymoma with ZFTA: RELA fusion-positive: A case report
Authors: Zhao Xiao-Yu , Yu Juan-Han , Wang Yi-Hua , Liu Yi-Xin , Xu Lu , Fu Lin , Yi Ning 
Published: November 2024

BACKGROUND
Ependymoma with lipomatous differentiation is a rare type of ependymoma. The ZFTA fusion-positive supratentorial ependymoma is a novel tumor type in the 2021 World Health Organization classification of central nervous system tumors. ZFTA fusion-positive lipomatous ependymoma has not been reported to date.
CASE SUMMARY
We reported a case of a 15-year-old Chinese male who had a sudden convulsion lasting approximately six minutes. Magnetic resonance imaging showed a round cystic shadow of approximately 1.9 cm × 1.5 cm × 1.9 cm under the right parieto-occipital cortex. Microscopic examination showed characteristic perivascular pseudorosettes and adipose differentiation in the cytoplasm. Immunohistochemical staining showed that the tumor cells were negative for cytokeratin, NeuN, Syn and p53, but positive for GFAP, vimentin and S-100 protein. Significant punctate intracytoplasmic EMA immunoreactivity was observed. The level of Ki-67 was about 5%. Genetic analysis revealed ZFTA: RELA fusion. A craniotomy with total excision of the tumor was performed. The follow-up time was 36 months, no evidence of disease recurrence was found in magnetic resonance imaging.
CONCLUSION
Based on these findings, the patient was diagnosed as a ependymoma with ZFTA fusion and lipomatous differentiation. This case report provides information on the microscopic morphological features of ependymoma with ZFTA fusion and lipomatous differentiation, which can help pathologists to make a definitive diagnosis of this tumor.

Background and objectives
Preterm birth (PTB) affects ~10% of births worldwide; however, most literature focused on short-term clinical outcomes, with much less focus on long-term socioeconomic outcomes after PTB. We examined associations between PTB and individuals’ income, employment, and educational outcomes during early adulthood.

Methods
We conducted a population-level matched cohort study including all live births in Canada between 1990 and 1996, followed until 2018. Outcomes included Employment income per year in 2018 CAD and employment between ages 18 and 28 years, postsecondary education enrollment (18–22 years), and maximum educational attainment at age 22–27 years. Mean differences and risk ratios (RR) and differences (RD) were estimated using generalized estimating equation regression models for economic outcomes and multinomial logistic regression models for educational outcomes.

Results
Of 2.4 million births, 7% were born preterm (0.3%, 0.6%, 0.8%, and 5.4% born extremely preterm (24–27 weeks), very preterm (28–31 weeks), moderately preterm (32–33 weeks), and late preterm (34–36 weeks) respectively). After matching on baseline characteristics (e.g., sex, province of birth, and parental demographics) and adjusting for age and period effects, preterm-born individuals, on average, had $958 CAD less employment income per year (95% CI: $854-$1062), 6% lower income per year, than term-born individuals, and were 2.13% less likely to be employed (1.98–2.29%). PTB was also negatively associated with university enrollment (RR 0.93 (0.91–0.94) and graduation with a university degree (RR 0.95 (0.94–0.97)). Mean income differences for those born 24–27 weeks were -$5,463 CAD per year (17% lower), and adjusted RR were 0.55 for university enrollment and graduation.

Conclusion
In this population-based study, preterm birth was associated with lower economic and educational achievements at least until the late twenties. The associations were stronger with decreasing GA at birth. Policymakers, clinicians, and parents should be aware that the socioeconomic impact of PTB is not limited to the early neonatal period but extends into adulthood.

Dramatic Changes in Thiopurine Metabolite Levels in a Patient With Inflammatory Bowel Disease Treated With Tirzepatide for Weight Loss
Authors: Klein Jeremy A. , St-Pierre Joëlle , Choi David , Lopez Jacqueline , Rubin David T. 
Published: November 2024

ABSTRACT
Thiopurines can be used to maintain remission in patients with inflammatory bowel disease. Thiopurines require regular blood count monitoring and, in specific patients, thiopurine metabolites for assessment of optimization and safety. We present the case of a 42-year-old woman with ulcerative colitis postcolectomy and ileal pouch-anal anastomosis with subsequent antibiotic-resistant diffuse pouchitis and prepouch ileitis. She was in stable remission with thiopurine monotherapy. Following tirzepatide initiation, she experienced elevated liver enzymes associated with a significant increase in thiopurine metabolite levels. This case underlines the importance of monitoring metabolite levels in patients with inflammatory bowel disease initiated on glucagon-like peptide 1-targeted therapies.
Immediate Infusion Reaction to Intravenous Risankizumab-rzaa but Subsequent Tolerance to Subcutaneous Risankizumab-rzaa
Authors: Choi David , McDonald Benjamin , Rubin David T. 
Published: November 2024

ABSTRACT
Risankizumab-rzaa (RZA) is a fully human immunoglobulin G monoclonal antibody (Mab) which has fewer immunogenic concerns compared with chimeric Mabs. The pivotal trials of RZA found no significant differences in infusion reactions between drug and placebo. This case illustrates successful transition to subcutaneous RZA following a serious hypersensitivity reaction to intravenous RZA.

Published: November 2024

ABSTRACT
The use of the glucagon-like peptide-1 (GLP-1) and glucose-dependent insulinotropic polypeptide (GIP) receptor agonist tirzepatide has markedly increased for the treatment of weight loss and management of diabetes mellitus. Gastrointestinal adverse effects of GLP-1/GIP agonist therapy, including nausea, vomiting, and constipation, are common. We report a case of colonic ischemia in a 62-year-old woman which developed in association with the use of tirzepatide for weight loss. This report highlights a potential risk relationship between GLP-1/GIP agonist therapy and colonic ischemia and identifies risk factors that should be considered before prescribing tirzepatide.

Published: November 2024

Uvod: Z vpeljavo digitalizacije v zdravstvu se je spremenil sistem naročanja na zdravstveno obravnavo. Cilj raziskave je bil opisati raven zadovoljstva pacientov izbrane zdravstvene ustanove z informacijskim sistemom eZdravje in identificirati morebitne pomanjkljivosti v tem sistemu.Metode: V raziskavo je bilo vključenih 319 naključno izbranih pacientov, ki so čakali na obravnavo v Splošni bolnišnici dr. Franca Derganca Nova Gorica v enomesečnem obdobju leta 2023. Uporabljen je bil posebej zasnovan anketni vprašalnik s petnajstimi temeljnimi vprašanji, ki smo mu izračunali visok koeficient zanesljivosti (Cronbach α = 0,894). Za statistično analizo so bile uporabljene osnovne deskriptivne statistike in Pearsonova korelacijska analiza.Rezultati: Ugotovitve kažejo, da so anketiranci v splošnem zadovoljni s storitvami eZdravja (M = 4,18, s = 0,69), vendar se z višjo starostjo njihovo zadovoljstvo znižuje (r = –0,166, p = <0,001). V primeru eNaročanja anketiranci kažejo na visoko stopnjo samostojnosti (82,8 %, n = 264). Med različnimi storitvami so anketiranci najbolj zadovoljni z obveščanjem o zdravstveni obravnavi (M = 4,45, s = 0,57), najmanj pa z informiranjem o uporabi eZdravja, ki je podana v ambulanti osebnega zdravnika.Diskusija in zaključek: Na podlagi rezultatov lahko potrdimo, da je večina anketiranih že uporabila aplikacijo eZdravje in so z njo zadovoljni. Kljub temu se jih veliko na zdravstveno obravnavo naroča telefonsko. Rezultati kažejo na potrebo po širšem ozaveščanju prebivalstva o raznolikih možnostih in postopkih naročanja na zdravstveno obravnavo.
Transtextual Paths: Dream of the Red Chamber as a Source of Borgesian Labyrinth
Authors: Liang Wenxin 
Published: November 2024

Abstract
With a book review published in the Argentine magazine El Hogar in 1937, Jorge Luis Borges was arguably the first author to introduce the Chinese classic Dream of the Red Chamber (红楼梦) to the Spanish-speaking world. By investigating Borges’s under-examined book review, this article starts with a comparative analysis of the German translation and Borges’s reception of Dream. First, I demonstrate how omissions and interpretations by the German translator Franz Kuhn contribute to Borges’s partial reading of this Chinese novel. Next, leveraging Gérard Genette’s concepts of transtextuality, my analysis situates Dream of the Red Chamber as a hypotext of Borges’s canonical short story “El jardín de senderos que se bifurcan” (“The Garden of Forking Paths”). I argue that “El jardín” not only inherits the narrative and philosophical essence of its Chinese source, but the figurative labyrinth created therein transcends Borges’s initial equivocations about the translated text. Ultimately, I contend that Borges’s ‘transreading’ of Dream of the Red Chamber shapes the crucial themes of dream and doubleness in his later works. Although the translator’s mediation results in Borges’s partial interpretation of the Chinese novel, the Argentine writer constructs a unique labyrinth – his philosophical and literary quintessence – in his creative rewritings and adaptations.
„Eine Sprache ausstellen“
Authors: Weiß Jana Maria 
Published: November 2024

Abstract
In their attempt to reposition Germany in an international context after World War II, actors from both the fine arts and the literary scene turned to the idea of art as a universal language. Two major projects that shaped the West German cultural sphere in the 1950 s and 1960s – the contemporary art exhibition documenta 2 and Hans Magnus Enzensberger’s anthology Museum der modernen Poesie – placed this idea at their conceptual core. The debates surrounding these projects show, however, that the notion of art as a universal language was as contested as it was compelling. In close readings of paratexts, including previously overlooked archival material, it becomes evident that very different conceptualizations of monolingualism and community are attached to the idea in each context. Evaluating these differences through the lens of translation studies, curatorial studies, and political theory enables a more nuanced discussion of the concept’s post-war renaissance and its ideological implications.
Absolute versus Relative Poverty and Wealth: Cooperation in the Presence of Between-Group Inequality
Authors: Levi Eugenio , Ramalingam Abhijit 
Published: November 2024

Abstract
While inequality in resource endowments has been shown to affect cooperation levels in groups, much of this evidence comes from studies of within-group inequality. In an online public goods experiment, we instead examine the effects of payoff-irrelevant inequality in resources between groups on cooperation within equal groups, i.e. the effect of mere exposure to inequality. When all groups are poor or rich, their contribution behaviour is very similar. Relative inequality, when poor and rich groups coexist, leads to lower contributions in rich groups. We find suggestive evidence that this may be related to stereotypes about the rich contributing less than the poor.
Estimating Expected Asset Returns with the Present Value Model of Consumption and Fed Forecasts
Authors: Kishor Narayan Kundan 
Published: November 2024

Abstract
This paper utilizes Greenbook forecasts of consumption and income to estimate expected asset returns through a present value model of consumption. The study finds that, despite the valuable information contained in Greenbook forecasts, the expected asset returns obtained from this approach do not provide meaningful insights into future asset returns. This contrasts with previous literature suggesting predictability using the present-value model.
Decolonising Plant-Based Cultural Legacies in the Cultural Policies of the Global South
Authors: Ohenhen Stanley Timeyin , Abakporo Princewill Chukwuma , Oladele Olayiwola , Eze Michael Nnali 
Published: November 2024

Abstract
The promotion and preservation of cultural legacies, including botanical traditions, are integral components of national identity and development strategies in many countries, particularly in the Global South. However, the manner in which cultural policies address plant-based heritage is not only influenced by contemporary priorities but also deeply rooted in historical contexts, shaped by colonial legacies. A comparative reading of the cultural policies of India and Nigeria, this research investigates the impact of colonial history on plant-based cultural heritage policies in the Global South. The study pulls from the Postcolonial and Critical Heritage Studies frameworks, to argue that the formulation and implementation of cultural policies on botanical plant heritage have been greatly impacted by colonial legacies. The result is the disparities in conservation endeavours and relegation of autochthonous knowledge. By shedding light on the on-going effects of colonialism on cultural practices and environmental conservation in the Global South, this research offers insights for policymakers, culture and heritage practitioners, and scholars seeking to address the issues around colonial legacies in cultural heritage management. It also seeks to provoke discourses on equitable and sustainable approaches to plant-based heritage preservation.

Khotanese ph‑ < Iranian *θu̯‑
Authors: Maggi Mauro 
Published: November 2024

Abstract
Late Khotanese phyaṣṭa‑ ‘shining, brilliant’ is from older *phiṣṭa‑, past participle of the inchoative *phīs‑ ‘to move; to shine’ from the polysemic Indo-Iranian root *tu̯ai̯š‑ ‘to be excited, be in motion, glow’ (Indo-European *tu̯ei̯s‑, Skt. tveṣ‑, Iranian *θu̯ai̯š‑). The Iranian cluster *θu̯ > *fu̯ resulted in Khotanese ph‑ initially and ‑hbetween vowels similarly to Iranian *f but with velarizing effects due to *u̯ before its disappearance. *θu̯‑ > ph‑ is observed in eight words with so far uncertain etymology, all derived from *phīs‑. Scrutiny of the occurrences of the derivatives and reinterpretation of some of them confirm the continuation of the two senses of Indo- Iranian *tu̯ai̯š‑ in Khotanese *phīs‑. Khotanese is thus the only Iranian language to continue Indo-Iranian *tu̯ai̯š‑ also in verbal formations: phyaṣṭa‑ ‘shining, brilliant’; śśī-phīsa‑ ‘whitish’ ← ‘approaching white’ or ‘having the brightness of white’; phīsūna‑ ‘(symbolic hand) movement, gesture’; usphīs‑ ‘to emerge; to shine forth’ (with us‑ ‘up, out’); *usphīsa‑ ‘upward movement’ in usphīsaroña‑ ‘arrogance’; iterative phīś‑ ‘to escape from, avoid’; iterative naṣphīś‑ ‘to depart from’; and causative haṃphīś‑ ‘to combine’ ← ‘to cause to go together’ (in addition to pūheiʾta‑ ‘slim, slender’ < *pati-θu̯ai̯š-a‑).
Active surveillance in patients with a complete clinical response after neoadjuvant chemoradiotherapy for esophageal- and gastroesophageal junction cancer

Abstract
Neoadjuvant chemoradiotherapy in patients with esophageal- and gastroesophageal junction cancer induces tumor regression. In approximately one fourth of patients, this leads to a pathological complete response in the resection specimen. Hence, active surveillance may be an alternative strategy in patients without residual disease after neoadjuvant chemoradiotherapy. Previous studies have shown that the combination of esophagogastroduodenoscopy with bite-on-bite biopsies, endoscopic ultrasound with fine needle aspiration of suspected lymph nodes, and a PET-CT-scan can be considered adequate for the detection of residual disease. So far, it has been unclear whether active surveillance with surgery as needed is a safe treatment option and leads to non-inferior overall survival compared to standard esophagectomy after neoadjuvant chemoradiotherapy. This review will discuss the current status of active surveillance for esophageal and junctional cancer.
Weights for 𝜋-partial characters of 𝜋-separable groups
Authors: Chang Xuewu , Jin Ping 
Published: November 2024

Abstract
The aim of this paper is to confirm a conjecture of Isaacs and Navarro from 1995, which asserts that, for any

π
′

\pi^{\prime}

-subgroup 𝑄 of a 𝜋-separable group 𝐺, the number of

π
′

\pi^{\prime}

-weights of 𝐺 with 𝑄 as the first component is larger than or equal to the number of irreducible 𝜋-partial characters of 𝐺 with 𝑄 as their vertex.
We also give a sufficient condition to guarantee that these two numbers are equal, and thereby strengthen their main theorem on the 𝜋-version of the Alperin weight conjecture.
