What can NLP do for linguistics? Towards using grammatical error analysis to document non-standard English features
Authors: Nguyen Li , Taslimipoor Shiva , Yuan Zheng 
Published: September 2024

Abstract
This paper proposes a novel use of grammatical error detection/correction (GED/GEC) tools to document non-standard English varieties. This is motivated by the fact that both GED/GEC technology and sociolinguistics aim to identify linguistic deviation from the so-called standard, yet there has been little communication between the two fields. We thus investigate whether state-of-the-art GED/GEC models can be effectively repurposed to automatically detect dialectal differences and assist linguistic missions in this regard. We explore this in the context of written Singaporean English (Cambridge Write & Improve), and spoken Vietnamese English (CanVEC), representing an established non-standard variety (Case 1) and an emerging variety (Case 2), respectively. We find that our GED/GEC systems are able to successfully detect a number of both established and new features. We further highlight some of the remaining areas that the systems overlook, as well as opportunities for future developments. This research bridges the gap between GED/GEC and dialectology, emphasizing their shared theme of linguistic deviation from a socially defined standard.

Published: September 2024

OBJECTIVE
To provide contemporary data on infants inborn at 22 to 25 weeks’ gestation and receiving care at level 3 and 4 neonatal intensive care units in the United States.

METHODS
Vermont Oxford Network members submitted data on infants born at 22 to 25 weeks’ gestation at a hospital with a level 3 or 4 NICU from 2020 to 2022. The primary outcome was survival to hospital discharge. Secondary outcomes included survival without severe complications, length of stay, and technology dependence.

RESULTS
Overall, 22 953 infants at 636 US hospitals were included. Postnatal life support increased from 68.0% at 22 weeks to 99.8% at 25 weeks. The proportion of infants born at 22 weeks receiving postnatal life support increased from 61.6% in 2020 to 73.7% in 2022. For all infants, survival ranged from 24.9% at 22 weeks to 82.0% at 25 weeks. Among infants receiving postnatal life support, survival ranged from 35.4% at 22 weeks to 82.0% at 25 weeks. Survival without severe complications ranged from 6.3% at 22 weeks to 43.2% at 25 weeks. Median length of stay ranged from 160 days at 22 weeks to 110 days at 25 weeks. Among survivors, infants born at 22 weeks had higher rates of technology dependence at discharge home than infants born at later gestational ages.

CONCLUSIONS
Survival ranged from 24.9% at 22 weeks to 82.1% at 25 weeks, with low proportions of infants surviving without complications, prolonged lengths of hospital stay, and frequent technology dependence at all gestational ages.

Published: September 2024

Uno de los objetivos de los programas de mejoramiento genético de maíz es desarrollar líneas endocriadas de alto valor genético, que al ser cruzadas puedan producir híbridos con características agronómicas superiores. En Colombia, la obtención de híbridos es de alto interés ya que pueden ayudar a aumentar el rendimiento y la producción de maíz y cerrar la brecha que existe entre la producción nacional y la importación de maíz que actualmente es del 74 %. Semillas Valle S.A. es una empresa colombiana que cuenta con un programa de mejoramiento de maíz híbrido enfocado en las zonas de trópico y subtrópico. Actualmente el programa de mejoramiento genético de maíz de Semillas Valle S.A. no cuenta con una caracterización del germoplasma que permita establecer estrategias eficientes para la formación de híbridos de alto rendimiento. En el presente estudio se realizó la clasificación de líneas endocriadas de maíz en grupos heteróticos a partir de 12 209 marcadores SNP y variables fenotípicas en 66 líneas del programa de mejoramiento de Semillas Valle S.A., y a partir de datos de campo de un ensayo dialélico donde participaron 30 parentales. A partir de un análisis de clúster de los datos SNPs se identificaron tres subpoblaciones. Por otra parte, los resultados del dialelo permitieron clasificar las líneas en tres grupos basados en la habilidad combinatoria general para múltiples rasgos (HGCAMT). Sin embargo, la integración de las metodologías podría proveer más información respecto a los grupos heteróticos presentes en la población evaluada.
Omega 3
Authors: Locker Alison 
Published: September 2024

The author looks at the consumption history of 4 fish in Britain from the medieval period using documentary and archaeological data: herring, eel, mackeral, salmon -- all oily fish, so called because they store lipids in their flesh. The results suggest that the high level of consumption of these species in the past may have supplied a sufficient intake of Omega 3 in pre-industrial Britain.

Authors: Parlina Estiana , Sutarjo Ajo , Hanif Muhammad 
Published: September 2024

This research was conducted to see the effect of Quizlet on the critical thinking skills of fifth graders at SDN Sayabulu. Initially, the researchers interviewed the homeroom teacher and one of the fifth-grade students of SDN Sayabulu where the teacher's learning process was more often taught using conventional methods with the help of book media; students' interest in learning can be reduced because one of the media is less varied. From the interview result, researchers used alternative learning media Quizlet with flashcards, test, and write features so that students could understand, analyze, identify, and evaluate questions. Researchers used a quantitative method in the form of a one-group pre-test and post-test to compare the critical thinking of fifth-grade students at SDN Sayabulu before and after treatment with Quizlet in one group or class. The results of the study using Quizlet for learning media showed a significant increase; this was in the calculation of the paired sample t-test with the results of the significant value, meaning that the learning media was accepted, and Quizlet improved critical thinking of students' class V SDN Sayabulu.

Digital Infant Formula Marketing, Breastfeeding, and Formula Use: A Cross-Sectional Study
Authors: Hilliard Elizabeth 
Published: September 2024

Objective:Digital infant formula marketing may be prevalent and difficult to track. This study was designed to determine the prevalence of and the target audience for digital infant formula marketing.Methods:This cross-sectional study included three “arms”: parents enrolled in a breastfeeding-friendly text messaging program, unenrolled parents, and nonparents. Participants documented all digital infant formula, baby food, or parent/baby club marketing over a 24-hour period and were offered a $20 incentive. Data analysis included descriptive statistics, independent samplettests, and χ2analyses.Results:All groups reported viewing more infant formula ads than for other products, but parents viewed more ads than nonparents. Parents who reported they were still breastfeeding and parents who reported using any infant formula reported viewing fewer ads (p< .05).Conclusions:This study supports the hypothesis that infant formula manufacturers target parents. Practitioners need awareness of formula marketing tactics to balance the infant feeding narrative.
A Composição de um Rigor sem Órgãos por meio de uma Ópera de Movimentos Aberrantes
Authors: Gomes Danilo Olímpio , Miarka Roger 
Published: September 2024

Este artigo se propõe a assumir discursos enunciados sobre o rigor, multiplicando-os em possibilidades para produzir o conceito de rigor sem órgãos, para ser operado em diferentes espaços disciplinares, de acordo com uma regra de funcionamento, mais como arma de invenção de outras formas de vida na relação com um rigor do que como ferramenta de reprodução de relações (de poder) com o rigor. Para isso, vale-se dos restos discursivos visibilizados na dissertação de mestrado A Disciplina de Análise segundo Licenciandos e Professores de Matemática da Educação Básica (Gomes, 2013) e do exercício de problematização e produção do conceito de rigor sem órgãos, promovido pela tese de doutorado Rigor sem Órgãos: em meio a relações discursivas, (r)ex(s)istências possíveis (Gomes, 2020), em um percurso que não deseja territorializar-se em nenhum espaço específico, mas correr por terras, ora conhecidas ora desconhecidas. Como proposta estética, opta-se por uma estrutura de ópera como forma política de experimentação narrativa, motivada não apenas pelos gostos pessoais dos autores, mas por reconhecer a potência de operar com outras formas de organização do conhecimento que podem levar quem lê a mobilizar outros afetos.

Authors: Puspita Septiani  
Published: September 2024

Tuberculosis is a disease that is easily transmitted and causes worry across the world. Central Java Province became one of the regions contributing the most tuberculosis cases in Indonesia in 2022, which amounted to 22,249 cases. This study aims to examine the local and global spatial autocorrelation of pulmonary tuberculosis cases in the Central Java Province in 2022. This research is an analytic observational research with an ecological study design. The unit of analysis used was 35 districts/cities. This study used secondary data from the Health Profile of Central Java Province in 2022. Data analysis used Moran's Index and Local Indicators of Spatial Associaton (LISA) methods with queen contiguity weighting in Geoda software. The results showed that Moran's index value of the global autocorrelation test on the number of pulmonary tuberculosis cases was 0.505. The results of the bivariate LISA test obtained the p value of tuberculosis cases with population, population density, and number of health facilities of 0.002, 0.449, and 0.007, respectively, with the Moran index value of 0.3111, 0.0075, and 0.2384 respectively. There are 9 spatially significant areas between population, population density, and number of health facilities with tuberculosis cases. This study concludes that there is a positive spatial autocorrelation (clustering pattern) of pulmonary tuberculosis cases in Central Java Province in 2022. In addition, there is positive spatial autocorrelation between population and number of health facilities with TB cases (clustering pattern) and there is no spatial autocorrelation between population density and TB cases.

Published: September 2024

Background:
This study aimed to investigate the short-term complications (minimum 1-year follow-up) after either an arthroscopic Bristow or Latarjet procedure for anterior shoulder instability utilizing screw or suture-button fixation.

Methods:
Patients undergoing arthroscopic Bristow or Latarjet procedures between November 2016 and April 2021 were enrolled. Data were collected at baseline, 3 months, 6 months, and every year after surgery. Risks of postoperative complications and unplanned reoperations were assessed. A multivariable regression model was used to identify risk factors for complications and to determine the association of complications with patient-reported outcomes.

Results:
A total of 412 patients (425 shoulders) undergoing arthroscopic Bristow or Latarjet procedures performed by a single surgeon between November 2016 and April 2021 were reviewed. Two hundred and ninety-nine patients (308 shoulders, 76.2% of 404 eligible) with a mean follow-up of 22.3 ± 4.2 months were included for analysis. Two hundred and sixty-nine shoulders (87.3%) underwent a Bristow procedure (165 with screw and 104 with suture-button fixation), while 39 (12.7%) underwent a Latarjet procedure (18 with screw and 21 with suture-button fixation). Eighty-two patients (83 shoulders) reported a total of 85 complications within 2 years after surgery, with an overall complication rate of 26.9%. The rates of recurrent dislocation or subluxation and infection were 1.9% and 0.6%, respectively, while a total of 4 (1.3%) of the shoulders had unplanned reoperations. The most common complications were graft-related (11.7%), followed by complications involving neurologic symptoms (10.7%). The overall, graft, and neurologic complication rates following Bristow or Latarjet procedures were 27.1% versus 25.6%, 12.3% versus 7.7%, and 10.0% versus 15.4%, respectively. Compared with the Bristow technique with screw fixation, Bristow with suture-button fixation yielded a lower risk of any complications (odds ratio [OR], 0.55; p = 0.04). Paying with rural insurance and poor sleep quality prior to surgery were associated with increased risk of any complications.

Conclusions:
Compared with arthroscopic Bristow procedures with screw fixation, Bristow procedures with suture-button fixation resulted in a lower overall complication risk. Both patient demographic and implant-specific factors were associated with the development of a complication.

Sagittal Fragment Rotation and Ogden Type-I Classification Are Hallmarks of Combined Tibial Tubercle Fracture and Patellar Tendon Injury
Authors: Schultz Rebecca J. , Amaral Jason Z. , Parham Matthew J. , Kitziger Raymond L. , Lee Tiffany M. , McKay Scott D. , Touban Basel M. 
Published: September 2024

Background:
Tibial tubercle fractures (TTFs) are uncommon injuries, comprising <3% of all proximal tibial fractures. These fractures occasionally occur in conjunction with a patellar tendon injury (PTI). We aimed to identify risk factors associated with combined TTF and PTI.

Methods:
A retrospective review was performed of patients presenting to a single, tertiary children’s hospital with TTF between 2012 and 2023. Demographic data, operative details, radiographs, and injury patterns were analyzed. Radiographs were assessed for the epiphyseal union stage (EUS), Ogden classification, and fracture patterns. Multiple logistic regression models were used to assess the impact of body mass index, comminution, fracture fragment rotation, EUS, bilateral injury, and Ogden classification on injury type.

Results:
We identified 262 fractures in 252 patients (mean age, 13.9 ± 1.31 years). Of the patients, 6% were female and 48% were Black. Of the 262 fractures, 228 (87%) were isolated TTFs and 34 (13%) were TTFs with PTI. Multivariable analysis demonstrated fragment rotation on lateral radiographs (p < 0.0001) and Ogden Type-I classification (p < 0.0001) to be the most predictive risk factors for a combined injury. Rotation was associated with a substantial increase in the odds of a combined injury, with an odds ratio of 22.1 (95% confidence interval [CI], 6.1 to 80.1). Ogden Type-I fracture was another significant risk factor, with an odds ratio of 10.2 (95% CI, 3.4 to 30.4).

Conclusions:
The Ogden classification and fragment rotation are the most useful features for distinguishing between isolated TTF and combined TTF with PTI. This is the first study to identify risk factors for TTF combined with PTI. Surgeons may use this information to aid in preoperative planning.

Kerguelen Plume Drives the Eocene Directional Change in Australian Plate Motion
Authors: Stotz Ingo L. , Carena Sara , Vilacı́s Berta , Hayek Jorge N. , Bunge Hans-Peter 
Published: September 2024

Abstract
Australia undergoes a directional plate motion change from westward to northward motion in the early Cenozoic that is associated with Australia/Antarctica separation. At the same time, there is evidence for early Cenozoic growing dynamic topography in the western part of the continent, which we infer by mapping geological hiatus—suggesting a high-pressure source in the upper mantle to the west of Australia. Plate motion changes can be used to better constrain the torques that drive plate tectonics. Such changes in motion need adjustments in either the torques exerted at plate boundaries or basal shear stresses. Furthermore, changes in the direction plate motion are useful to pinpoint torque locations. In particular, basal shear stresses can be understood in terms of Poiseuille flow. In this context, active driving asthenosphere torques arise from pressure gradients in the asthenosphere. Thus, Poiseuille flow inherently connects both horizontal and vertical plate motions, including dynamic topography. Mantle plumes generate positive pressure gradients in the asthenosphere, which is evident from elevated dynamic topography in regions with plume activity. Here, we apply a simple Poiseuille flow model to demonstrate that the Kerguelen plume is precisely located to provide the torque to initiate the early Cenozoic directional change of Australian plate motion; these results are entirely consistent with the hiatus occurrence in the western half of the continent at that time. Our findings point out the feasibility of identifying torque sources from active upper mantle flow that can account for shifts in the direction of plate motions.

Abstract

To investigate the structural and functional similarities of microbial communities in burnt-sweetness alcoholized tobacco as a function of distance from the equator and their effects on tobacco quality, we sampled alcoholized tobacco from Chenzhou, Hunan Province, China and from Brazil and Zimbabwe, which are also burnt-sweetness-type tobacco producing regions, and performed high-throughput sequencing of tobacco bacterial and fungal communities along with an analysis of the main chemical constituents of the tobacco to analyze differences in the quality of the tobacco and similarities in the structure of the microbial communities. The total nitrogen, nicotine and starch contents of Chenzhou tobacco were greater than those of Brazilian and Zimbabwean tobacco, and the total sugar and reducing sugar contents of the Brazilian and Zimbabwean tobacco were greater than those of the Chenzhou tobacco (P < 0.05). The alpha diversity indices of the bacterial communities in Chenzhou tobacco were lower than those in the Brazilian and Zimbabwean tobacco, and the alpha diversity indices of the fungal communities in Chenzhou tobacco were greater than those in the Brazilian and Zimbabwean tobacco (P < 0.05). In the ecological networks, bacterial–fungal interactions in the Brazilian and Zimbabwean tobacco were more complex than those in the Chenzhou tobacco, and the microbial ecological networks of the burnt-sweetness-type tobacco from three different regions were dominated by competitive relationships. The microbial community composition of Chenzhou tobacco was similar to that of Brazilian tobacco at the bacterial genus and fungal phylum level, with Sphingomonas being a significantly enriched genus in Brazilian tobacco and a key genus in the Chenzhou network that is able to participate in the degradation of polyphenols and aromatic compounds. Functional microbes related to aromatic compounds and cellulose degradation were significantly more abundant in the Brazilian and Zimbabwean tobacco than in Chenzhou tobacco, and the related degradation of tobacco substances was responsible for the better quality of the Brazilian and Zimbabwean tobacco. In conclusion, there are similarities in the structure, composition and functional flora of microbial communities in tobacco from Chenzhou and Brazil because these regions have similar latitudinal distributions. This study provides theoretical support for selecting cultivation regions for the burnt-sweetness-type alcoholized tobacco and for the alcoholization of tobacco leaves.
