Clinical effects of dexamethasone among patients with sickle cell disease hospitalized with COVID-19: Outcomes from a single academic health system
Authors: Garneau William M. , Lankiewicz Matthew J. , Lesko Catherine R. , Lauriello Ashley P. , Gebo Kelly A. , Lanzkron Sophie M. 
Published: November 2024

Background
Dexamethasone is a steroid used in the treatment of hospitalized patients with severe COVID-19. However, the effect of dexamethasone in patients with SCD remains unclear given that steroids may precipitate vaso-occlusive crisis (VOC) in patients with SCD.

Methods and findings
We performed a retrospective analysis of patients with SCD who were hospitalized at Johns Hopkins Health System between June 1, 2020 and June 26, 2022. We reviewed individual charts to assess severity of illness and eligibility for dexamethasone treatment. The exposure of interest was treatment with dexamethasone. Outcomes of interest included incident VTE, length of hospital stay, ICU admission, follow up-VOC and mortality. We identified 30 patients with SCD and COVID-19 who were eligible for dexamethasone treatment, 13 of whom received dexamethasone. Dexamethasone was associated with an increased risk of incident VTE (risk difference = 36%; 95% CI 8%, 66%) after adjustment for high-risk genotypes, >3 hospitalizations, and receipt of anticoagulation. There was an increase in the risk difference of ICU admission and an increased length of stay in crude and adjusted analyses however these associations were not statistically significant.

Conclusions
We analyzed outcomes among patients with SCD who were hospitalized for COVID-19 and eligible for dexamethasone. Our study suggests that in this population, treatment with dexamethasone increases the risk of incident VTE. There was a suggestion of an increased risk of ICU admission as well as increased length of hospitalization; larger studies are needed to confirm these findings.

Background
Despite a high burden of Human Papilloma Virus (HPV)-associated diseases, HPV vaccine uptake is disparate globally. The objective of this systematic review is to summarize the existing evidence on knowledge, attitudes, and practices (KAP) regarding HPV and the uptake of the HPV vaccine.

Methods and analysis
We will conduct a systematic review of observational studies that report data on HPV KAP and vaccine uptake among people aged 16 and above. We will search MEDLINE, CINAHL, Embase, Emcare, Web of Science, Cochrane Library, Global Health, and PsycInfo. We will conduct screening, data extraction, and assessment of the methodological quality of the included studies in duplicate. A random-effects model will be used to pool data. Subgroup analysis will be done for age younger adults (≤ 26 years old) and older adults (> 26 years old), sex (men and women), income level (as per World Bank), and WHO region. This systematic review will be reported according to the Preferred Reporting Items for Systematic Reviews and Meta-Analyses (PRISMA) guidelines. The PROSPERO registration number for the review is CRD42024532230.

Ethics and dissemination
Ethical approval is not necessary as this study will review secondary published data. Our findings will be disseminated as part of a doctoral thesis and through peer-reviewed journal publications and conferences.
Libraries and the 2030 Agenda: The Portuguese Case
Authors: Gama Merabe Carvalho Ferreira da 
Published: November 2024

Abstract
This article studies Portuguese libraries that have won the “Libraries: Development and the 2030 Agenda” award promoted since 2018 by the Portuguese Association of Librarians, Archivists, Information and Documentation Professionals together with the General Directorate of Books, Archives and Libraries. The aim is to identify the common characteristics of the libraries that have won the award so that these success stories can help other libraries with guidance on what characteristics they should develop in their teams in order to develop projects and actions that contribute to a more sustainable world. The method used is grounded theory with human analysis and Iramuteq software. Six common characteristics were found among the libraries: partnerships, teamwork, a focus on the community, projects linked to the territory, support and alignment with senior management regarding the SDGs, and funding. These characteristics together can lead to successful projects in the context of the 2030 Agenda and promote innovative services. It is also desirable that the projects developed are constantly monitored and evaluated. We conclude that libraries that want to develop projects for the 2030 Agenda should invest in these characteristics.
Multiple Equilibria and Equilibrium Selection in the Crime Commission Game
Authors: Baker Matthew J. , Miceli Thomas J. 
Published: November 2024

Abstract
The deterrence function of criminal punishment relies on the credibility of enforcers to carry out threatened sanctions. That credibility may be suspect when enforcers face budgetary constraints, especially if the realized crime rate is high. This leads to the potential for multiple equilibria in the “crime commission game” – one involving a low crime rate, and one involving a high crime rate. The latter potentially arises because a high rate of crimes may overwhelm the ability of enforcers to apprehend offenders, thus leading to a self-fulfilling outcome. When multiple equilibria are possible, the question of which one is “selected” has practical as well as theoretical relevance. The paper assesses the implications of various selection criteria, including payoff dominance, risk dominance, and the global games approach. The conclusions highlight the role of the credibility of punishment in deterring crime, and also shed light on the interpretation of data on crime and punishment.

Published: November 2024

Resumo: O presente artigo tem como objetivo discutir e problematizar a participação de mulheres na campanha abolicionista em Pelotas e Rio Grande, cidades localizadas ao sul do Brasil, durante os anos 1880 e 1888, focando especialmente na atuação de duas irmãs, Julieta e Revocata de Mello[1], que deixaram suas ideias sobre a abolição registradas na imprensa. Angela Davis escreve sobre as norte-americanas na luta pela libertação dos escravizados e demonstra que essa experiência teve um caráter dialético, já que elas trabalharam em prol da causa antiescravagista ao mesmo tempo em que defendiam os direitos políticos das mulheres. Embora predominantemente masculino, o abolicionismo também contou com a colaboração feminina e o conceito de gênero como categoria analítica é relevante para pensar as ações por elas desempenhadas no movimento e o que isso representou para elas em termos políticos.Palavras-chave: Movimento abolicionista.

Published: November 2024

Resumem: El presente estudio se propuso identificar y dimensionar el archivo sidario Óscar Hermes Villordo como posibilidad cartopográfica sobre la experiencia del sida en la década de los noventa de finales del siglo XX. Se configuró el archivo a partir de la revisión del Fondo Óscar Hermes Villordo de la Biblioteca Nacional Mariano Moreno en Argentina, el Fondo Marcelo E. Ferreyra, el Archivo Pietro y el Archivo de Referencias Críticas/ Colección General de la Biblioteca Nacional Digital de Chile. Hasta aquí, se han identificado 18 rubros (48 piezas) entre materiales textuales, visuales y audiovisuales que han sido digitalizados para dar corpus al archivo. Un archivo sidario pertenece a la experiencia de cómo se vivió la enfermedad. El Archivo Sidario Óscar Hermes Villordo nos abre la posibilidad de lecturas sobre cómo el escritor a través de su propia letra e imágenes audiovisuales vivió la experiencia de tener sida. La escritura, la sonoridad, la imagen fotográfica, tipográfica y audiovisual permiten al lector establecer una coreografía que da vida al archivo, y es allí donde se dimensiona: desde la pertenencia, empatía, sensibilidades y su condición minoritaria (no hegemónica).

Abstract: The present study set out to identify and take stock of the Óscar Hermes Villordo sidario [AIDS'] archive as a cartographic possibility of the experience of AIDS in the late nineties of the twentieth century. The archive was set up based on a review by the Óscar Hermes Villordo Fund of the Mariano Moreno National Library in Argentina, the Marcelo E. Ferreyra Fund, the Pietro Archive and the Critical References Archive/General Collection of the National Digital Library of Chile. So far, 18 items (48 pieces) have been identified, including textual, visual and audiovisual materials that have been digitized to provide a corpus for the archive. An AIDS archive belongs to the experience of how one has lived through the disease. The Óscar Hermes Villordo Sidario Archive opens up the possibility of readings on how the writer, by means of his own handwriting and audiovisual images, lived through the experience of having AIDS. The writing, its sonority, the photographic, typographic and audiovisual images allow the reader to establish a choreography that gives life to the archive, and this is the means by which it is measured: through its belonging, empathy, sensibilities and (non-hegemonic) condition of minority.

Abstract
The high costs and geopolitical challenges inherent to the lithium-ion (Li-ion) battery supply chain have driven a rising interest in the development of sodium-ion (Na-ion) batteries as a potential alternative. Unfortunately, the larger ionic radius of Na limits the reversibility of cycling because of the extensive atomic rearrangements that accompany Na-ion insertion, which in turn limit diffusion and charging speed, and lead to rapid degradation of the electrodes. The Center for Strain Optimization for Renewable Energy (STORE) was established to address these challenges and develop new electrode materials for Na-ion cells. This article discusses the current state-of-the-art materials used in Na-ion cells and several directions that STORE believes are critical to understand and control the structural and volumetric changes during the reversible (de)insertion of large cations.

Graphical abstract

Highlights
Understanding the fundamental way materials respond to localized strains at the atomic length-scale is a critical first step in the development of highly reversible, long cycle life, Na-ion insertion hosts. This perspective explores a variety of methods that can be employed to mitigate the detrimental effects of large strain. The insights gained from these investigations should help lay the foundation for the creation of more economical and sustainable batteries that could have immediate impact on global energy infrastructure.

Discussion
Although there is near universal agreement that electrochemical energy storage must be an integral part of a green-energy future, there is less agreement about how to reduce the cost of energy storage. Replacing high-cost lithium-ion cells with lower-cost sodium-ion batteries is one option frequently considered in future energy models, but the details of what can be achieve with optimized sodium cell performance remains unclear. Here we posit that developing methods to mitigating strain on the electrode particle length scale is a key factor for achieving long-cycle-life sodium-ion batteries. Mitigating strain on the atomic scale suppress electrode-level volume change. Allowing for fast cycling in materials without the problems of electrode cracking or delamination. We further posit that understanding volume change in sodium-ion electrodes at a fundamental level will lead to the designing new sodium-ion electrode materials that will allow for efficient, stable, lower-cost energy storage.

Aim. To assess the changes of body mass index (BMI) and diet in pa­tients with class 1 obesity receiving low-frequency transcutaneous vagal nerve stimulation (tVNS).Material and methods. This randomized, placebo-controlled study inclu­ded 88 patients with class 1 obesity and no noncommunicable diseases. The subjects were divided into 2 comparable groups using a random number generator. The patients underwent a comprehensive nutritional analysis using a 24-hour dietary recall and BMI assessment at visit 1 and at a control visit after 6 months of stimulation. Six patients dropped out during the study, and 82 subjects were analyzed over a follow-up period.Results. In the tVNS group, a significant decrease in BMI was found after 6 months — 33,1 vs 31,6 kg/m2 (p<0,001) compared to placebo — 31,5 vs 31,8 kg/m2 (p<0,819). There was a decrease in the average daily value in the tVNS group after 6 months — 2536,0 vs 1854,0 g/day (p<0,001). The median indicators of total fat, cholesterol and carbohydrates significantly decreased in the tVNS group — 100,8 vs 85,9 g/day (p=0,009), 322,4 vs 195,5 mg/day (p=0,005), 274,4 vs 213,5 mg/day (p=0,001), respectively, compared to placebo — 116,2 vs 91,2 g/day (p=0,791), 357,0 vs 249,5 mg/day (p=0,110), 250,8 vs 196,3 mg/day (p=0,129), respectively.Conclusion. For the first time, against the background of tVNS, a decrease in BMI, daily calorie intake and consumption of total fat, dietary cholesterol and total carbohydrates was revealed in individuals with class 1 obesity.
La misión de Ricardo Ferrer Barbero: una primera impresión de la justicia republicana en los territorios españoles del Golfo de Guinea
Authors: Nagy Laurent 
Published: November 2024

« Les hommes naissent et demeurent libres et égaux en droit », l’article 1er de la Déclaration des Droits de l’Homme jette les bases d’une nouvelle société en France. Pour ancrer dans le temps cette espérance commune, la jeunesse est très vite soumise à une intense éducation citoyenne. Ainsi, pendant dix ans (1789-1799), les enfants et les adolescents de France se construisent sur cet idéal.
À Gray (Haute-Saône), au sortir de l’enfance, Claude-François Cugnet (1778-1824) apprend et assimile ces principes d’égalité et de liberté avec une telle force qu’il ne cessera jamais de les célébrer et de les défendre, en France comme en Espagne durant le Trienio liberal (1821-1824).
L’étude des années d’apprentissage de Claude-François Cugnet, fils d’un meunier comtois, vise à comprendre comment l’acquisition d’un recueil de principes théoriques se transforme chez lui, en une cause susceptible d’animer chaque instant de sa vie. Par ses mots, ses pratiques et ses espérances politiques sans cesse répétés, Claude-François Cugnet, en bon élève de ses premiers éducateurs, nous éclaire modestement sur l’impact, la permanence et l’adaptation de l’idéal révolutionnaire bien après la Révolution et bien au-delà des frontières nationales puisqu’il meurt fusillé après l’échec de l’expédition libérale des Coloraos à Almería (septembre 1824).

Thyroid hormone imbalance and the mechanism by which it causes memory loss
Authors: Riaz Faiza , Javed Eman , Ali Maida 
Published: November 2024

Thyroid hormone imbalance is the cause of many cognitive dysfunctions such as memory loss, anxiety and depression. A study conducted by Yu et al suggests that hypothyroidism as well as hyperthyroidism causes depression, anxiety and hippocampal dysfunction in rats. The mechanism of these dysfunctions is not yet completely understood.
