Authors: Kaufmann Timothy J. , Lehman Vance T. , Van Gompel Jamie J. , Wong-Kisiel Lily C. , Miller Kai J. 
Published: September 2024

BACKGROUND AND OBJECTIVES:
Corpus callosotomy is an effective procedure approach for treating medication-resistant drop seizures, which pose a significant challenge in patients with epilepsy. Laser interstitial thermal therapy offers an alternative to open surgery for performing corpus callosotomy that may limit approach-related comorbidities. Practices vary regarding the number of laser filaments used and staging; outcome data for pediatric patients remain relatively limited.

METHODS:
We illustrate a set of 4 standardized trajectories for performing MRI-guided stereotactic laser corpus callosotomy (SLCC). For this retrospective cohort study in a pediatric neurosurgery practice, the medical records and imaging were reviewed for 10 consecutive patients who had medication-refractory drop seizures and underwent SLCC. Data collected and analyzed included patient and epilepsy characteristics, procedural details, surgical approaches, and clinical follow-up results.

RESULTS:
Over 2 years, complete, single-stage SLCC was performed in 8 patients, and posterior completion SLCC was performed in 2 patients who had previously had open anterior corpus callosotomy. Four laser fibers were used in four-eighth complete SLCC, and 3 fibers were used in four-eighth complete SLCC. Seven of 10 patients were discharged from the hospital on postoperative day 1, with only 1 requiring a maximum stay of 6 days. Five of 9 evaluable patients reported no drop seizures at the last clinical follow-up. In the other 4 patients, 1 experienced them only rarely, another experienced less than 25% preoperative frequency, and the remaining 2 had less than a 50% improvement. In addition, improvement in other seizure types exceeded 50% in 8 of 9 patients. Notably, no perioperative or postoperative complications were observed, nor were there any sustained neurological deficits reported.

CONCLUSION:
Complete SLCC can be safely and effectively performed in pediatric patients. It is comparable in effectiveness with open surgery but has lower complication rates and shorter hospitalization.

BACKGROUND AND OBJECTIVES:
Awake minimally invasive transforaminal lumbar interbody fusion (MIS-TLIF) generates minimal surrounding tissue damage and has been shown to be a safe, time-effective, and cost-reductive technique in single-level procedures. The purpose of this study was to advocate for the utilization of multilevel MIS-TLIF even in challenging cases as it has demonstrated positive outcomes.

METHODS:
Chart review was conducted for consecutive patients undergoing awake multilevel MIS-TLIF from 2020 to 2023. Various demographic, preoperative, and postoperative variables were collected and descriptively analyzed.

RESULTS:
Sixteen patients underwent multilevel awake MIS-TLIF at our institution during the specified period. Among them, 87.5% underwent a two-level procedure and 12.5% a three-level procedure. The median age ± IQR was 69.5 ± 11 years, with a slight male predominance (56.25%). Common comorbidities included hypertension (56.25%), obesity (37.5%), sleep apnea (25%), and type 2 diabetes (18.75%). The American Society of Anesthesiologists risk was 2 in 43.75% of patients and 3 in 56.25%. All patients presented pain, and 12.5% showed motor deficit. Intraoperative data showed a median of 196 minutes in the operating room where 156 ± 27.75 minutes corresponded to actual procedure time. The median estimated blood loss was 50 ± 70 cc. In the immediate postoperative period, 1 patient had nausea and emesis, and 1 reported fatigue. The median pain score during this period was 4.6 ± 2.03. Pain control medications were required for various patients, with methocarbamol (50%), hydromorphone (37.5%), and oxycodone (25%) being the most commonly prescribed in the postanesthesia care unit. No patient had new neurological deficits after the surgical intervention. The median length of stay was 2 days ±1.25. All patients were discharged with no complications.

CONCLUSION:
Multilevel awake MIS-TLIF emerges as a safe and effective technique for complex cases, enhancing patient quality of life with minimal blood loss and postoperative pain.

The aim of this study was to to evaluate the effect of diets containing 0, 50, 100, 200, and 400 mg kg-1 oregano (Origanum vulgare) essential oil on antioxidant enzymes (CAT, GPx and SOD) in liver and muscle tissues and expression levels of their-relevant genes of Black Sea salmon (Salmo labrax) juvenile. This study was conducted in the freshwater recirculating aquaculture system (RAS). Fish with average initial weights of 3.52±0.01g were distributed randomly in triplicate to 50 liter fiberglass tanks, and 45 fish were placed in each experimental tank. Fish were fed 3% level of live weight for 90 days. The addition of oregano essential oil had no significant impacts on CAT in liver and GPx in muscle (p>0.05), but increased SOD activity was observed in muscle. The increased GPx genes expression were observed in both muscle and liver tissues. The addition of oregano essential oil had no significant impacts on the mRNA expression of SOD in muscle, nevertheless increased SOD genes expression were determined in liver. In terms of the mRNA expression of CAT, control and 200 mg kg-1 concentration were similar to each other and had the highest level. Present study suggests that the addition of oregano essential oil can enhanced the antioxidant enzyme activities, and related gene expression of Black Sea salmon (Salmo labrax) juvenile.

Published: September 2024

This research evaluated the effect of different garlic (Allium sativum) levels on the nutritional characteristics, growth, and survival rate of goldfish (Carassius auratus). Five different commercial experimental diets were prepared garlic was added at levels of 0 (Control), 5, 10, 15, and 20 g·kg-1. The experiment was carried out for 84 days. Diet 4 group, in which 20 g·kg-1 garlic was added to the trial feed, showed the best growth performance compared to Diet 0 (Control) and other groups (Diet 1, Diet 2, Diet 3) (p<0.05). The best growth in parameters such as body weight gain, percent live weight increase, and specific growth rate was in the Diet 4 group (p<0.05). It was determined that the statistical difference between the groups for the condition factor and survival rate parameters was insignificant. The highest feed conversion rate was determined in the Diet 0 group with the lowest Diet 4 group (p<0.05). As a result, it has been determined that feeding goldfish with the addition of garlic up to 20 g·kg-1 (2%) in its diet will have a positive effect on growth.
Fraud Detection by Integrating Multisource Heterogeneous Presence-Only Data

Published: September 2024

In credit fraud detection practice, certain fraudulent transactions often evade detection because of the hidden nature of fraudulent behavior. To address this issue, an increasing number of positive-unlabeled (PU) learning techniques have been employed by more and more financial institutions. However, most of these methods are designed for single data sets and do not take into account the heterogeneity of data when they are collected from different sources. In this paper, we propose an integrative PU learning method (I-PU) for pooling information from multiple heterogeneous PU data sets. A novel approach that penalizes group differences is developed to explicitly and automatically identify the cluster structures of coefficients across different data sets, thus offering a plausible interpretation of heterogeneity. Furthermore, we apply a bilevel selection method to detect the sparse structure at both the group level and within-group level. Theoretically, we show that our proposed estimator has the oracle property. Computationally, we design an expectation-maximization (EM) algorithm framework and propose an alternating direction method of multipliers (ADMM) algorithm to solve it. Simulation results show that our proposed method has better numerical performance in terms of variable selection, parameter estimation, and prediction ability. Finally, a real-world application showcases the effectiveness of our method in identifying distinct coefficient clusters and its superior prediction performance compared with direct data merging or separate modeling. This result also offers valuable insights for financial institutions in developing targeted fraud detection systems. History: Accepted by Ram Ramesh, Area Editor for Data Science & Machine Learning.

Influencer Authenticity: To Grow or to Monetize
Authors: Nistor Cristina , Selove Matthew , Villas-Boas J. Miguel 
Published: September 2024

Social media influencers can grow their number of followers by endorsing products that are authentic for their social media persona or, alternatively, monetize their followers by endorsing a wider variety of products. We develop a dynamic model in which an influencer continuously decides whether to be authentic as she balances increasing awareness with generating revenues from sponsored posts. We derive conditions in which the influencer is authentic during an early growth phase, but she becomes inauthentic once a large enough fraction of potential followers are aware of her. Celebrities become inauthentic at a lower awareness level than pure social media influencers. If posts can go viral, the influencer initially is inauthentic as she hopes to go viral, she later becomes authentic to grow awareness rapidly, and she eventually becomes inauthentic again.

Published: September 2024

We develop a general equilibrium model in which investors simultaneously experience money and nominal price illusions. We show that the combined effects of these illusions widen the gap between the elasticities of the earnings yield of low- and high-priced stocks relative to the nominal interest rate. Empirically, we show that the compounded effects of money and nominal price illusions are stronger for low-priced stocks during periods of high inflation and economic downturns and for stocks with low institutional ownership. Our findings are robust when controlling for valuation uncertainties of low-priced stocks, including idiosyncratic volatility and firm age. This paper was accepted by Agostino Capponi, finance.

Safeguarding Secrets, Shaping Acquisitions: Trade Secret Protection and the Role of Distance Between Acquirer and Target
Authors: Arroyabe Marta , Grimpe Christoph , Hussinger Katrin 
Published: September 2024

We investigate whether strengthened legal protection of trade secrets increases the likelihood of a firm being acquired. Stronger protection can make a firm more attractive for acquisition because of better safeguarding of trade secrets, but it may also increase information asymmetries that discourage potential acquirers. Using the staggered implementation of the Uniform Trade Secrets Act in the United States, we show that stronger trade secret protection increases the likelihood of being acquired but also changes firms’ acquisition strategies more broadly depending on the distance between acquirer and target. Compared with domestic acquirers, foreign acquirers are only half as likely to make an acquisition, and they prefer to acquire minority rather than majority stakes. Both domestic and foreign acquirers are more likely to pursue stepwise acquisitions of a target as protection increases, consistent with a real options rationale. Further investigation suggests that, whereas increased trade secret protection increases information asymmetries for all acquirers, foreign acquirers as well as domestic acquirers located further away from a target are disproportionately affected.

Os engajamentos discursivos desencadeados pela fotomontagem do jornal Folha de São Paulo
Authors: Batista Bianca Dorothea 
Published: September 2024

Este artigo analisa o engajamento dos sujeitos nas redes sociais desencadeado pela fotografia que integrava a notícia do jornal Folha de São Paulo, publicada no meio impresso e digital no dia 19 de janeiro de 2023, em que há uma fotomontagem do presidente recém-eleito Luís Inácio Lula da Silva atrás de um vidro avariado dias após a depredação dos prédios do Congresso Nacional, Palácio do Planalto e Supremo Tribunal Federal por grupos extremistas que não aceitavam a derrota eleitoral do candidato da oposição. A imagem mobiliza um arquétipo imaginário de violência e provoca uma afetividade negativa como ameaça e agressão nos sujeitos que compartilham de afinidades ideológicas e políticas com o presidente assim como de experiências vinculadas à tópica do discurso de ódio nas plataformas digitais.
Entre o dito e o não dito: modos de significar as vítimas de feminicídio na página de Facebook do G1
Authors: Sampaio Ariane Silva da Costa , Farias Washington Silva de 
Published: September 2024

Neste trabalho analisamos os discursos sobre o feminicídio postos em circulação pelo G1 na sua rede social Facebook, buscando compreender como aquilo que não é dito (Pêcheux, 2015) significa e como esse silêncio, entendido aqui como constitutivo, ou seja, como o não dito necessariamente excluído (Orlandi, 2007), produz sentidos para mulheres vítimas de feminicídio. Sob o aparato teórico e metodológico da Análise do Discurso pecheutiana, analisaremos postagens e comentários sobre casos de feminicídio feitos entre os anos de 2015 e 2023. Nossa análise evidenciou um efeito de desqualificação da vítima que ocorre através de variados modos de enunciação: pela nomeação pejorativa, pela enunciação adversativa e pelo foco narrativo do crime. Como consequência desses modos de significar a vítima, notamos o silenciamento do caráter de gênero do feminicídio.
MOVIMENTO SANKOFA: BUSCANDO NOS SABERES ANCESTRAIS POSSIBILIDADES DE CONSTRUÇÃO DUM NOVO METABOLISMO SOCIAL
Authors: De Oliveira Heliany Wyrta , Lima dos Reis Júnior Reinaldo 
Published: September 2024

Este artigo propõe que realizemos o movimento Sankofa, sendo este parte de uma sabedoria ancestral do povo Akan, principalmente do império Ashanti, que viviam na costa Oeste do continente africano, mais precisamente onde é hoje o Togo, Benin, Gana, Costa de Marfim, Burkina Faso. A Sankofa é um símbolo de resistência, cuja origem africana foi trazida para o Brasil na época colonial, quando negros eram feitos escravos. A etimologia da palavra, em ganês, inclui os termos san (voltar, retornar), ko (ir) e fa (olhar, buscar e pegar). Esse movimento propõe o retorno ao passado, voltar as nossas raízes, para trazer de a sabedoria necessária para continuar a caminhada. Nessa afroperspectiva esse artigo pretende buscar uma nova forma de vivenciar a realidade, para que através da aprendizagem de voltar o olhar para o passado como refletir novas possibilidades de atuação no presente, ousando construir alternativas para o futuro. Propor o movimento Sankofa como possibilidade de (re)conhecer nos saberes ancestrais, potencialidades esquecidas ou silenciadas, que podem colaborar com a continuidade do nosso percurso, propondo novas possibilidades de ser, existir e agir no mundo. Sendo assim, utilizaremos os textos estudados na disciplina de Bases Conceituais do PROFEPT para compreender a construção social do trabalho e da educação no Brasil, a partir de uma economia baseada no capitalismo dependente. Realizarei um paralelo desses estudos a partir de uma Afroperspectiva, que traga elementos dos saberes ancestrais para repensar o metabolismo social do capital, tendo em vista a construção de um novo metabolismo social.
Tunable waveguide mode of hyperbolic phonon polaritons in α-MoO3 flake/gold slit composite structure

Published: September 2024

Hyperbolic phonon polaritons (HPhPs) in van der Waals layered polar crystals exhibit extreme light confinement capability, providing an unprecedented research opportunity to manipulate nanoscale midinfrared photons. Precise tuning of HPhPs propagation characteristics and near-field energy routing is crucial for applying polaritonic devices. Here, we demonstrate a widely tunable waveguide mode of HPhPs in an α-MoO3 flake/gold slit composite structure. By varying the width of the gold slit from 3 μm to 220 nm, the compression ratio of HPhPs wavelength relative to the incident light wavelength can be adjusted from 35% to 8.6%, respectively. This is attributed to the introduction of the gold slit, which can effectively excite and guide HPhPs within an α-MoO3 flake, forming a confined waveguide mode. Notably, the excitation efficiency of HPhPs in the nanoscale ultranarrow waveguide can be enhanced by integrating an extended port at the waveguide port. In addition, the routing of polaritons in a Y-shaped waveguide is realized by modulating the frequency of the incident light. This work presents a promising platform for manipulating deep subwavelength polaritons in planar photonic devices for infrared applications.

Published: September 2024

Objectives
Whether there is an association between serum uric acid level (sUA) and periodontitis remains unclear. The aim of this study was to investigate the association between moderate/severe periodontitis and sUA in US adults.

Materials and methods
A total of 3398 participants were included in the National Health and Nutrition Examination Survey (NHANES) from 2009 to 2014. The independent variable was sUA and the dependent variable was periodontitis. SUA for continuous variables, periodontitis as classification variables. Covariate including social demographic variables, life style, systemic diseases, etc. Multiple linear regression models were used to investigate the distribution of differences in covariates between different independent groups. To investigate the association between serum uric acid levels and moderate/severe periodontitis, three models were used (Model 1: unadjusted model; Model 2: adjusted for age, sex, and race/ethnicity; Model 3: adjusted for age, sex, race/ethnicity, education, household income/poverty ratio, smoking behavior, alcohol consumption, dental floss frequency, obesity, hypertension, diabetes, high cholesterol, hyperlipidemia, and sleep disorders).

Results
Among the 3398 patients, 42.5% had moderate/severe periodontitis. Multivariate logistic regression analysis showed that sUA was significantly associated with moderate/severe periodontitis (OR = 1.10, 95%CI: (1.03, 1.16), P = 0.0020) after adjusting for potential confounding factors. In addition, it may vary by race/ethnicity and gender. The association between sUA levels and the prevalence ofperiodontitis was U-shaped in women and non-Hispanic blacks.

Conclusion
sUA level is associated with moderate to severe periodontitis. However, the association between sUA levels and the occurrence of periodontitis in women and non-Hispanic blacks followed a U-shaped curve.

Clinical relevance
sUA may directly or indirectly contribute to the global burden of periodontal disease, but there is little evidence that sUA is directly related to periodontitis.This study further supports that high uric acid levels are closely related to periodontitis and may contribute to the control of periodontitis. It also provides new insights into whether it can be used as an indicator to assess the risk or progression of periodontitis. More studies are needed to confirm the relationship between sUA and periodontitis.
Live Typhoid and Yellow Fever Vaccines Administered to a Patient With Ulcerative Colitis on Vedolizumab
Authors: Hegde Yash , Hayney Mary S. , Caldera Freddy 
Published: September 2024

ABSTRACT
Patients with inflammatory bowel disease who receive immunosuppressive therapy have an increased risk of infection. Live vaccines are contraindicated in these patients because of the increased risk of unchecked replication of the attenuated vaccine microorganisms. Vedolizumab is a gut-selective biological agent with a low risk of infection approved for the treatment of inflammatory bowel disease. There are limited data on the risk of providing a live vaccine in patients receiving vedolizumab, and patients may receive live vaccines if the benefits outweigh the risks. We describe a patient with ulcerative colitis, treated with vedolizumab who received 2 live vaccines, typhoid and yellow fever, without postimmunization adverse events.

Published: September 2024

ABSTRACT
Intrahepatic cholangiocarcinoma with sarcomatous transformation (ICC-S) is a rare, aggressive neoplasm with epithelial and sarcomatous elements. We report a rapid progression of ICC-S in a 66-year-old woman. Initially, a seemingly benign 8-cm mass was observed. However, the tumor doubled to 16 cm within 3 months during follow-up. Partial hepatectomy confirmed ICC-S and histopathological examination showed cytokeratin 7 and vimentin positivity in epithelial and sarcomatous components, respectively. An analysis of transition zone indicated epithelial–mesenchymal transition as a mechanism for sarcomatous transformation. We provide the first detailed immunohistochemical analysis of the transition zone in ICC-S, highlighting epithelial–mesenchymal transition's role in pathogenesis.
