The Current Situation of Japanese Copyright Law Regarding Internet Transmission of Library Materials – The Amendment to the Copyright Act in 2021
Authors: Murai Maiko 
Published: September 2024

Abstract
The COVID-19 pandemic prompted Japan to review Art. 31 of the Copyright Act in 2021, which pertains to limitations on copyright for library usage. As a result, access to library materials via the internet became legally permissible within certain limits. Specifically, the amendment allows (1) the National Diet Library to transmit rare or out-of-print materials to individuals on the internet; and (2) libraries and similar facilities to provide users with public transmission services (transmitting portions of copyrighted works to users for research or study purposes). This article introduces the revisions made to Art. 31 in the 2021 amendment, explains the current situation regarding internet transmission of library materials in Japan, and explores future issues.
Transmission via the internet is not subject to physical or locational constraints. The provision of library materials via the internet will thus involve considering how to position and organize the relationship between the individual transmission service for rare or out-of-print library materials by the National Diet Library and public transmission services by individual libraries.
Anti-populism and the Trump trauma in US foreign policy
Authors: Biegon Rubrick , Hamdaoui Soraya 
Published: September 2024

Abstract
In challenging normal patterns of foreign policy legitimation and undermining the internationalist consensus in favour of liberal hegemony, Donald Trump's populism constituted a political trauma for the foreign policy establishment (FPE) of the United States. How did the FPE respond? Based on a discursive approach and using the methodology of qualitative frame analysis, we examine the anti-populist response to the Trump trauma on the part of the FPE. The findings show how the FPE framed Trumpian populism as a political anomaly through interlocking frames of authoritarianism, irresponsibility and immaturity. This could only be rectified through a process of foreign policy normalization, carried through the first two years of the Joe Biden administration, which aimed to stabilize US leadership and restore the consensus that existed prior to the populist disruption. Highlighting the emotional dimensions of anti-populism, the article contends that to fully understand the effects of global populism, we must examine elite responses to populist ‘ruptures’ of the kind Trump represented. By extending the concept of anti-populism to debates on foreign policy, the article addresses existing gaps in the literatures on anti-populism and the effects of populist foreign policy.
Populist hyperpersonalization and politicization of foreign policy institutions
Authors: Özdamar Özgür , Yanik Lerna K 
Published: September 2024

Abstract
This article explains how right-wing populist leaders in Hungary, Poland, Russia and Turkey have transformed their states' foreign policy institutions through personalization and politicization. We examine the transformation of foreign policy institutions in the four cases and make two contributions. First, we differentiate between disparate types of personalization by proposing the term ‘hyperpersonalization’—populist leaders' reliance on security institutions in foreign policy decision-making—which distinguishes the populist transformation of foreign policy institutions in Russia and Turkey. We argue that lower levels and speed of autocratization lead to politicization combined with milder cases of personalization of the foreign policy bureaucracy, while higher levels and speed of autocratization lead to higher levels of personalization in the foreign policy institutions. Second, we lay out the steps and patterns of populist politicization and hyperpersonalization that bring ‘deinstitutionalizing restructuring’ to foreign policy institutions. As we illustrate, this deinstitutionalizing restructuring involves concurrent bureaucratic expansion and bureaucratic retrenchment. The process is accompanied by a populist narrative that this restructuring is done to realize the ‘popular will’ or to regain ‘full sovereignty’. We conclude the article with the policy implications of this populist transformation of foreign policy institutions.
The Trump effect: the perpetuation of populism in US–China trade
Authors: Skonieczny Amy , Sherel Ancita 
Published: September 2024

Abstract
Our article analyses the enduring influence of Donald Trump's populist narrative on United States–China trade policies under Joe Biden's administration. We extend the literature on the effect of populism and populist leaders by examining what happens after a populist leader leaves office, and to what extent an expectation of populism perpetuates a populist narrative despite a change in leadership. In the case of US–China trade, the Biden administration that followed Trump's has carried on with a populist trade narrative and protectionist policies towards China, despite predictions that the US would return to ‘normal’ economic relations after Trump left office. Through textual analysis of speeches by both administrations, we identify a narrative coherence between Trump's nationalist–populist discourse and the trade rhetoric of the Biden administration, revealing a legacy of narrative expectation that constrains policy choices. Our findings demonstrate how Trump's populist framework persists, shaping White House discourse and policy decisions in the economic realm even after he has left office, and we showcase the enduring effect of populist language in political spheres.
IDS-Neo2020+: A Novel Resource for New German Words in Use
Authors: Storjohann Petra 
Published: September 2024

Abstract
Researching and recording new lexical items and senses holds a well-established position within German linguistics. The first corpus-based online dictionary (the Neologism Dictionary 2006ff.) was introduced in 2006 and focused on collecting and describing neologisms which had emerged and become established over the three decades from 1900 to 2020. In 2022, a new concept was developed to elevate lexicographic aspirations by integrating linguistic as well as encyclopaedic knowledge, and by introducing innovative presentational approaches. In this paper, the key changes and concepts of the new resource (published in platform OWID) will be highlighted, in particular its main aim, which is to merge an online dictionary with a dynamic informative dashboard. This combination offers headword-specific details for general reference and comprehensive information related to neologisms that transcends individual units, presented in various formats. Particular emphasis will be placed on the significant connection between neology and (critical) discourse, a facet that has previously played a minor role in lexicographic practices.
A mini immersed finite element method for two-phase Stokes problems on Cartesian meshes
Authors: Ji Haifeng , Liang Dong , Zhang Qian 
Published: September 2024

Abstract
This paper presents a mini immersed finite element (IFE) method for solving two- and three-dimensional two-phase Stokes problems on Cartesian meshes. The IFE space is constructed from the conventional mini element, with shape functions modified on interface elements according to interface jump conditions while keeping the degrees of freedom unchanged. Both discontinuous viscosity coefficients and surface forces are taken into account in the construction. The interface is approximated using discrete level set functions, and explicit formulas for IFE basis functions and correction functions are derived, facilitating ease of implementation.The inf-sup stability and the optimal a priori error estimate of the IFE method, along with the optimal approximation capabilities of the IFE space, are derived rigorously, with constants that are independent of the mesh size and the manner in which the interface intersects the mesh, but may depend on the discontinuous viscosity coefficients. Additionally, it is proved that the condition number has the usual bound independent of the interface. Numerical experiments are provided to confirm the theoretical results.

Abstract

Background
Few investigations have assessed contributions of both vaginal bacteria and proinflammatory immune mediators to human immunodeficiency virus (HIV) acquisition risk in a prospective cohort.

Methods
We conducted a nested case-control study of African women who participated in a randomized placebo-controlled trial of daily oral versus vaginal tenofovir-based preexposure prophylaxis for HIV infection. Vaginal concentrations of 23 bacterial taxa and 16 immune mediators were measured. Relationships between individual bacterial concentrations or immune mediators and HIV risk were analyzed using generalized estimating equations in a multivariable model. Factor analysis assessed relationships between combinations of bacterial taxa, immune mediators, and HIV acquisition risk.

Results
We identified 177 HIV pre-seroconversion visits from 150 women who acquired HIV and 531 visits from 436 women who remained HIV uninfected. Fourteen bacterial taxa and 6 proinflammatory cytokines and chemokines were individually associated with greater HIV risk after adjusting for confounders. Women with all 14 taxa versus &lt;14 taxa (adjusted odds ratio [aOR], 4.45 [95% confidence interval {CI}, 2.20–8.98]; P &lt; .001) or all 6 immune mediators versus &lt;6 mediators (aOR, 1.77 [95% CI, 1.24–2.52]; P &lt; .001) had greater risk for HIV acquisition. Factor analysis demonstrated that a bacterial factor comprised of 14 high-risk bacterial taxa (aOR, 1.57 [95% CI, 1.27–1.93]; P &lt; 0.001) and the interferon gamma–induced protein 10 (highest quartile: aOR, 3.19 [95% CI, 1.32–7.72]; P = 0.002) contributed to the highest HIV risk.

Conclusions
Bacterial and host biomarkers for predicting HIV acquisition risk identify women at greatest risk for HIV infection and can focus prevention efforts.
The utility of appellate review at the WTO and its optimal structure
Authors: Sykes Alan O 
Published: September 2024

Abstract
The impasse over the appointment of judges to the World Trade Organization (WTO) Appellate Body shows no signs of abating, raising considerable doubt about the future of appellate review in WTO disputes. This paper examines the rationale for appellate review in the WTO, drawing on both the history of the General Agreement on Tariffs and Trade and the economic literature assessing the desirability of appellate review in judicial systems. It argues that the WTO does not present a compelling economic case for a two-stage judicial process. It further argues that if some form of appellate review is to be retained in the WTO, a discretionary ‘certiorari-like’ mechanism may be the best option.
Rethinking the ‘Full Reparation’ standard in energy investment arbitration: how to take climate change into account
Authors: Zheng Yawen 
Published: September 2024

Abstract
One crucial measure to curb global warming is the phasing out of fossil fuel production, but doing so can deprive the value of foreign investments in fossil fuels and amount to breaches of investment treaties. Normally, investment treaties are silent about the standards of compensation when treaty violations are established. Tribunals mostly refer to the ‘full reparation’ standard in general international law, potentially resulting in high amounts of compensation that place a significant burden on States implementing climate actions. This paper argues that the amount of compensation under the ‘full reparation’ standard can be reduced on four grounds: (i) depressed energy price in the peak demand era, (ii) unviability of fossil fuel projects, (iii) international environmental obligations, and (iv) international environmental principles. An interpretation document entered into by States can clarify the application of the ‘full reparation’ standard and ensure that these factors are taken into account in quantifying compensation.

Abstract
In this research, we present two 1D Convolutional Neural Network (CNN) models that were trained, validated and tested using simulated light curves designed to mimic those expected from the Kepler Space Telescope during its extended mission (K2). We also tested them on real K2 data. Our light curve simulator considers different stellar variability phenomena, such as rotations, pulsations and flares, which along with the stellar noise expected for K2 data, hinders the transit signal detection, as in real data. The first model effectively identifies transit-like signals in light curves, classifying them based on the presence or absence of such signals. Furthermore, the second model not only phase-folds the light curves but also eliminates stellar noise, a crucial step when fitting transits to the Mandel and Agol theoretical transit shape. The obtained results include an accuracy of $\sim 99\%$ when classifying the light curves based on the presence or absence of transit-like signals, and $MAPE\sim 6\%$ regarding to the transits’ depth and duration when phase folding the light curves, showing the great capabilities of 1D-CNN for automatizing the transit search in light curves, both on simulated and real data.
Influence of genetic similarity and social setting on extra-pair parentage in prairie voles
Authors: Keane Brian , Stevens Martin H H , Solomon Nancy G 
Published: September 2024

Abstract
Social monogamy is rare in mammals, but in those species in which it occurs, individuals frequently engage in extra-pair copulation (EPC). Numerous hypotheses have been proposed to explain EPC, but relatively few field studies have examined factors influencing EPC in socially monogamous mammals. Prairie voles (Microtus ochrogaster) are a socially monogamous rodent in which extra-pair paternity (EPP) is common. Using genetic data from a 3-year study of a natural population of prairie voles, we investigated whether the negative consequences of inbreeding and the structure of social units (male–female pairs vs. groups; adult sex ratio within groups) were factors affecting EPC. We found strong evidence that genetic similarity between males and females that produced offspring via EPC was less than that between social partners, as would be expected if avoiding inbreeding depression influenced the occurrence of EPC. Social unit structure was also a factor involved with extra-pair parentage. Contrary to our expectations, the greater the proportion of females in the group, the lower the chance of EPC resulting in offspring production by females, and, similarly, the chance of EPP by males declined as the proportion of males within the group increased. However, neither males nor females were more likely to produce offspring from EPC when they were living in pairs versus groups. One implication of these results is that EPC may be influenced more by female behaviors, such as mate choice, than male mate guarding. Overall, our results suggest that the proximate factors influencing EPC in prairie voles are complex but include the cost of inbreeding depression and the structure of social units.
Behavioral adaptation to seasonal resource scarcity by Caribou (Rangifer tarandus) and its role in partial migration
Authors: Joly Kyle , Cameron Matthew D , White Robert G 
Published: September 2024

Abstract
Animals living in seasonal environments have adopted a wide array of tactics used to deal with seasonal resource scarcity. Many species migrate between habitats to reach areas where food resources are more plentiful as an attempt to address energetic demands through foraging. We assessed the winter behavioral adaptations of Caribou (Rangifer tarandus), a large ungulate inhabiting Arctic and sub-Arctic regions known for seasonal resource scarcity. Movement rates of Caribou are the lowest of the year during winter, revealing 1 mechanism individuals use to reduce energy expenditures. However, migratory individuals moved nearly twice as much as nonmigratory individuals during winter, suggesting that migratory individuals rely more upon income (forage), whereas nonmigratory individuals rely more upon capital (bodily reserves). Lichens are the primary winter forage for large, migratory herds of Caribou, and migratory individuals experienced more than 2.5 times greater lichen cover than nonmigratory individuals. We documented that both groups slowed their movement in areas of greater lichen cover, suggesting increased foraging time in these areas. Movement rates were greater near villages, which may be suggestive of disturbance, but the effect was weak. Overall energy saved by reduced movement rates was modest. However, energy savings were 11% of daily body energy lost or 47% of the demands of early pregnancy, which potentially could affect individual condition and/or fetal growth if not offset by increases in forage intake.

Published: September 2024

Abstract
The prognosis of a patient with a primary cutaneous melanoma is known to be related to the Breslow thickness of their tumor. This study sought to determine long-term (30-year) survival rates for the 4 American Joint Committee on Cancer 8th edition T categories by analyzing Australian registry data for 210 042 melanoma patients diagnosed from 1982 to 2014. The 30-year incidence rates of death due to melanoma and nonmelanoma (with 95% confidence intervals [CIs]) were 7.1% (95% CI = 6.9% to 7.3%) and 32.8% (95% CI = 32.3% to 33.3%), respectively. For T2 melanomas, the corresponding rates were 21.6% (95% CI = 21.0% to 22.3%) and 35.6% (95% CI = 34.7% to 36.6%), for T3 melanomas 34.2% (95% CI = 33.4% to 35.1%) and 39.6% (95% CI = 38.5% to 40.8%), and for T4 melanomas 44.3% (95% CI = 43.2% to 45.3%) and 39.6% (95% CI = 38.3% to 41.0%). A plateau in melanoma-related deaths occurred in T4 patients after 20 years, but there were ongoing melanoma-related deaths for the other T categories beyond 30 years. A progressive rise in the risk of death from other causes occurred across all T categories.

Abstract

Background
The rate of primary surgery for human papillomavirus (HPV)–related oropharynx cancer has recently declined, whereas use of transoral robotic surgery has lagged at community cancer centers. We hypothesize that differences in overall survival exist between patients undergoing surgery for HPV-related oropharynx cancer at community centers and low transoral robotic surgery volume (&lt;15 transoral robotic surgeries per year) academic centers and high transoral robotic surgery volume (≥15 transoral robotic surgeries per year) academic centers.

Methods
Patients from the US National Cancer Database with a diagnosis of HPV-related oropharynx cancer from 2010 to 2019 who underwent primary surgical treatment were included. Trends in transoral robotic surgery use, rates of positive surgical margins, quality of adjuvant treatment, and 5-year overall survival were compared between community centers, low transoral robotic surgery volume academic centers, and high transoral robotic surgery volume academic centers.

Results
A total of 5406 patients met study criteria. A clinically and statistically significantly lower proportion of patients at community centers underwent transoral robotic surgery than at low transoral robotic surgery volume academic centers or high transoral robotic surgery volume academic centers (26.2% vs 44.0% vs 73.9%, respectively; P &lt; .001). The rate of positive surgical margins was clinically and statistically significantly higher at community centers than at low transoral robotic surgery volume academic centers or high transoral robotic surgery volume academic centers (25.7% vs 15.3% vs 9.2%, respectively; P &lt; .001). A greater proportion of patients undergoing adjuvant radiotherapy (RT) received prolonged courses (23.6% vs 13.1% vs 8.8%; P &lt; .001) or excessive doses (16.5% vs 11.5% vs 8.7%; P &lt; .001) of RT at community centers than at low transoral robotic surgery volume academic centers or high transoral robotic surgery volume academic centers, respectively. Five-year overall survival was lowest at community centers (85.2%, 95% confidence interval [CI] = 81.7% to 88.2%), intermediate at low transoral robotic surgery volume academic centers (88.9%, 95% CI = 87.2% to 90.4%), and highest at high transoral robotic surgery volume academic centers (91.4%, 95% CI = 89.5% to 92.9%; Plog-rank &lt; .01).

Conclusions
Clinically and statistically significant differences in the type and quality of surgical and adjuvant treatment for HPV-related oropharynx cancer exist between facility types based on transoral robotic surgery volume. Overall survival was lowest at community centers, intermediate at low transoral robotic surgery volume academic centers, and highest at high transoral robotic surgery volume academic centers.
