Can We Still Say “We”? Manuel Puig and the Question of Readership in the Global Age
Authors: Brock Ashley 
Published: September 2024

Abstract
What kinds of collectivities might come into being in literature in an age of diverse global readership? This question, pressing for twenty-first-century reevaluations of comparative literature, is not new to Latin American literature and its criticism. This article takes Manuel Puig’s 1980 novel Maldición eterna a quien lea estas páginas as an example of a text that engages in debates of its moment, including reader-response theory and Latin American testimonio, while also looking over their horizons to anticipate the ways the collective “we” of literary studies would be thrown into question in the decades to come. Though the novel, which was written during Puig’s exile in New York and anticipates a metropolitan readership, condemns its reader from the outset to read badly (incompetently, extractively, parasitically), it also suggests that there is ethical value in staying with the textual encounter in which meaning, power, and relation are negotiated. Miscommunication, distortion, and projection may be inevitable when continuity in culture, language, and life experience cannot be assumed between writer, characters, and readers, but Puig’s novel affirms that the creative collaboration (however conflictive) that takes place in the act of reading is what gives rise to new ways of saying “we.”
Positive-strand RNA virus replication organelles at a glance
Authors: Stancheva Viktoriya G. , Sanyal Sumana 
Published: September 2024

ABSTRACT
Membrane-bound replication organelles (ROs) are a unifying feature among diverse positive-strand RNA viruses. These compartments, formed as alterations of various host organelles, provide a protective niche for viral genome replication. Some ROs are characterised by a membrane-spanning pore formed by viral proteins. The RO membrane separates the interior from immune sensors in the cytoplasm. Recent advances in imaging techniques have revealed striking diversity in RO morphology and origin across virus families. Nevertheless, ROs share core features such as interactions with host proteins for their biogenesis and for lipid and energy transfer. The restructuring of host membranes for RO biogenesis and maintenance requires coordinated action of viral and host factors, including membrane-bending proteins, lipid-modifying enzymes and tethers for interorganellar contacts. In this Cell Science at a Glance article and the accompanying poster, we highlight ROs as a universal feature of positive-strand RNA viruses reliant on virus–host interplay, and we discuss ROs in the context of extensive research focusing on their potential as promising targets for antiviral therapies and their role as models for understanding fundamental principles of cell biology.
Embrace the Unexpected: How Organizations Foster Participatory Improvisation with Customers
Authors: Demetry Daphne 
Published: September 2024

This study explores how organizations, together with their customers, solve problems in the face of disruptions, a process I call “participatory improvisation.” Drawing on interviews, ethnographic observations, and archival data collected from an underground restaurant, Secret Kitchen, and the theory of interaction order, I develop a process model of participatory improvisation with a two-part structure. First, I find that an organization must lay the foundation for participatory improvisation by establishing alternative conventions (e.g., expect and embrace the unexpected). Second, these conventions facilitate mutual face work by both the organization and customers in response to disruptions, thereby protecting interactions from breakdowns. When alternative conventions are not established, participatory improvisation may be ineffective, and interactions may be severely threatened. These findings contribute to the literature on organizational improvisation by uncovering how organizations can foster participatory improvisation and how it unfolds in situ. They also reveal an alternate way for customer-facing organizations to achieve their goals beyond routinization.

On-Demand Meal Delivery: A Markov Model for Circulating Couriers
Authors: Bell Michael G. H. , Le Dat Tien , Bhattacharjya Jyotirmoyee , Geers Glenn 
Published: September 2024

On-demand meal delivery has become a feature of most cities around the world as a result of platforms and apps that facilitate it as well as the pandemic, which for a period, closed restaurants. Meals are delivered by couriers, typically on bikes, e-bikes, or scooters, who circulate collecting meals from kitchens and delivering them to customers, who usually order online. A Markov model for circulating couriers with n + 1 parameters, where [Formula: see text] is the number of kitchens plus customers, is derived by entropy maximization. There is one parameter for each kitchen and customer representing the demand for a courier, and there is one parameter representing the urgency of delivery. It is shown how the mean and variance of delivery time can be calculated once the parameters are known. The Markov model is irreducible. Two procedures are presented for calibrating model parameters on a data set of orders. Both procedures match known order frequencies with fitted visit probabilities; the first inputs an urgency parameter value and outputs mean delivery time, whereas the second inputs mean delivery time and outputs the corresponding urgency parameter value. Model calibration is demonstrated on a publicly available data set of meal orders from Grubhub. Grubhub data are also used to validate the calibrated model using a likelihood ratio. By changing the location of one kitchen, it is shown how the calibrated model can estimate the resulting change in demand for its meals and the corresponding mean delivery time. The Markov model could also be used for the assignment of courier trips to a street network. History: This paper has been accepted for the Transportation Science Special Issue on ISTTT Conference.
Effects on patient activation of eHealth support in addition to standard care in patients after radical prostatectomy: Analysis of secondary outcome from a randomized controlled trial
Authors: Wennerberg Camilla , Ekstedt Mirjam , Schildmeijer Kristina , Hellström Amanda 
Published: September 2024

Introduction
Prostate cancer is often treated with radical prostatectomy, but surgery can leave patients with side effects. Patients who actively take part in their rehabilitation have been shown to achieve better clinical outcomes. eHealth support has the potential to increase patient activation, but has rarely been evaluated in long-term randomized controlled trials. Therefore, we evaluated the effects on patient activation of eHealth support (electronic Patient Activation in Treatment at Home, ePATH) based on motivational theory. The aim was to investigate the effects of eHealth support on patient activation at 6 and 12 months after radical prostatectomy, compared with standard care alone, and associations with baseline patient activation and depression.

Methods
A multicentre randomized controlled trial with two study arms was conducted. Men planned for radical prostatectomy at three county hospitals in southern Sweden were included and randomized to the intervention or control group. The effects of ePATH on the secondary outcome, patient activation, were evaluated for one year after surgery using the patient activation measure and analysed using a linear mixed model.

Results
The study included 170 men during 2018–2019. In the intervention group, 64% (53/83) used ePATH. The linear mixed model showed no significant differences between groups in patient activation [β -2.32, P .39; CI -7.64–3.00]. Baseline patient activation [β 0.65, P < .001; CI 0.40–0.91] and depression [β -0.86, P .03; CI -1.64– -0.07] statistically impacted patient activation scores over one year.

Conclusions
ePATH had no impact on patient activation during long-term prostate cancer rehabilitation. However, patient activation at baseline and depression scores significantly influenced patient activation, underlining the need to assess these aspects in prostate cancer surgery rehabilitation.

Endoscopic Through-the-Scope X-Tack Helix Suturing System for Complete Closure of a Large Full-Thickness After Surgical Gastric Perforation
Authors: Almasaid Sharifeh , Suhail Fathima Keshia , Khan Hafiz M. 
Published: September 2024

ABSTRACTGastric perforation is considered a surgical emergency managed operatively; however, endoscopic repair techniques have gained popularity as they are cost-effective, improve mortality, and decrease hospital stay and recurrence. With increased prevalence of gastric defects postoperatively and after invasive endoscopic procedures, various endoscopic techniques were developed over the years, but special consideration should be given to the defect type, size, and location. Our case highlights the use of X-Tack through-the-scope suturing for closing a large, full-thickness gastric perforation in a difficult location where OverStitch is not feasible.
Is G.A. Cohen’s Egalitarian Ethos Consistent with Unconditional Basic Income?
Authors: Lucena de Andrés Julio 
Published: September 2024

Abstract
The egalitarian ethos, as formulated by G.A. Cohen, and the unconditional basic income are two proposals that a priori may seem incompatible. The reason is that Cohen’s ethos – aimed at reducing inequality without sacrificing efficiency or freedom- requires that individuals work hard in socially useful occupations without asking for any inequality-generating incentives. On the contrary, the UBI, as conceived by Van Parijs and van der Veen, consists of an income paid by the government to every full member of society regardless of their willingness to contribute to society in the form of work. In short, the ethos includes a productive requirement while the UBI has an unconditional character. However, if we introduce an absolute level of affluence above what occupational autonomy takes precedence over efficiency and if we broaden the range of socially useful contributions beyond formal employment, the tension between the egalitarian ethos and UBI will be alleviated.

Abstract
Economic and social scientists are increasingly interested in historical data, but many relevant sources are still available in analog form, limiting accessibility and research potential. This article introduces the WBdigital database, which aims to improve this situation. The database provides digital access to the DIW Wochenbericht (1928–1968), including its economic texts and time series data covering both German and international perspectives. These research data offer an ideal framework for investigating important research questions related to historical contexts and current economic challenges. Thus, we hope that the WBdigital database will be a valuable tool for researchers interested in economic history.
An analysis of the music symbols in Pascal Quignard’s Tous les matins du monde
Authors: Liu Juan 
Published: September 2024

Abstract
This research paper delves into the intricate role of music as a symbolic form in Pascal Quignard’s novel Tous les matins du monde, exploring its capacity to convey profound human emotions and experiences. Set against the backdrop of 17th-century France, the narrative follows the lives of Monsieur de Sainte Colombe and Marin Marais, renowned viola da gamba players, to contemplate the essence of music and its representation of human sentiment. The paper examines the semiotic nature of music, its relationship with memory and emotion, and the philosophical inquiry into music’s intrinsic value as an art form. It also discusses the novel’s adaptation into a film and its impact on the revival of Baroque music. Furthermore, the paper draws parallels between the myth of Orpheus and the characters’ personal journeys, highlighting the transformative power of music and its ability to transcend reality. The analysis is grounded in the works of various scholars, including Ferdinand de Saussure, Suzanne Langer, and Charles Sanders Peirce, to provide a comprehensive understanding of music’s symbolic essence in Quignard’s literary creation.

AbstractBackgroundResearch on individual differences in brain structural features of internet gaming disorder (IGD) and established addictions such as tobacco use disorder (TUD) is currently limited. This study utilized normative modeling to analyze the cortical thickness (CT) development patterns of male patients with IGD and TUD, aiming to provide further insights into whether IGD qualifies as an addiction.MethodsSurface-based brain morphometry (SBM) was used to calculate CT from T1-weighted magnetic resonance imaging data of 804 male participants (665 healthy individuals, 68 IGD and 71 TUD). Gaussian process regression was employed to generate normative models of CT development. Deviation maps were produced to depict deviations of IGD and TUD participants from the typical developmental patterns.ResultsBoth addiction groups exhibited widespread cortical thinning, particularly in regions such as the bilateral temporal pole and medial orbitofrontal cortex. The TUD group demonstrated a higher degree of individualization and limited spatial overlap compared to the IGD group. Opposite trends in CT changes were observed between the two groups in the bilateral pericalcarine cortex and pars triangularis.ConclusionsThese findings regarding the similarities and differences between IGD and TUD provide support for the idea that IGD shares common features with substance-related addictions and contribute to a deeper understanding of the neural mechanisms underlying IGD.

OBJETIVO: Identificar os fatores associados à condição de vulnerabilidade clínico-funcional de idosos soteropolitanos acompanhados em uma unidade de cuidados primários à saúde. MÉTODOS: Estudo transversal conduzido com pessoas com idade igual ou superior a 60 anos cadastradas em uma unidade docente-assistencial em Salvador, Bahia. Foram excluídas as que não tinham histórico de acompanhamento regular ambulatorial ou com prontuário inativo há mais de cinco anos. Foram coletados dados sociodemográficos e aplicado o Índice de Vulnerabilidade Clínico-Funcional (IVCF-20) entre novembro de 2019 a março de 2021. Os idosos foram classificados como robustos ou não-robustos e análises bivariadas foram realizadas com o intuito verificar as diferenças entre os grupos. As variáveis que apresentaram associações com p<0,10 foram incluídas no modelo regressão de Poisson e foram feitos os ajustes para possíveis confundidores. RESULTADOS: Participaram do estudo 102 idosos e foi verificado que a capacidade aeróbica e/ou muscular comprometida (RP=2,91; IC95% 1,50 – 6,18), a presença de comorbidades múltiplas (RP=2,79; IC95% 1,51 – 5,48), a incontinência esfincteriana (RP=1,86; IC95% 1,04 – 3,30) e a piora do esquecimento (RP=1,88; IC95% 1,04 – 3,55) foram os fatores independentemente associados à vulnerabilidade clínico-funcional. CONCLUSÃO: Os resultados do estudo permitem concluir que o comprometimento da capacidade aeróbica, a presença de comorbidades múltiplas, incontinência esfincteriana e perda de memória encontram-se associados à condição de vulnerabilidade clínico-funcional de idosos soteropolitanos acompanhados por uma unidade de cuidados primários à saúde. Essas informações devem ser consideradas no planejamento dos cuidados no âmbito da Atenção Primária à Saúde e da atenção integral.
Broadband Ground-Motion Simulations with Machine-Learning-Based High-Frequency Waves from Fourier Neural Operators
Authors: Aquib Tariq Anwar , Mai P. Martin 
Published: September 2024

ABSTRACT
Seismic hazards analysis relies on accurate estimation of expected ground motions for potential future earthquakes. However, obtaining realistic and robust ground-motion estimates for specific combinations of earthquake magnitudes, source-to-site distances, and site conditions is still challenging due to the limited empirical data. Seismic hazard analysis also benefits from the simulation of ground-motion time histories, whereby physics-based simulations provide reliable time histories but are restricted to a lower frequency for computational reasons and missing information on small-scale earthquake-source and Earth-structure properties that govern high-frequency (HF) seismic waves. In this study, we use densely recorded acceleration broadband (BB) waveforms to develop a machine-learning (ML) model for estimating HF ground-motion time histories from their low-frequency (LF) counterparts based on Fourier Neural Operators (FNOs) and Generative Adversarial Networks (GANs). Our approach involves two separate FNO models to estimate the time and frequency properties of ground motions. In the time domain, we establish a relationship between normalized low-pass filtered and BB waveforms, whereas in the frequency domain, the HF spectrum is trained based on the LF spectrum. These are then combined to generate BB ground motions. We also consider seismological and site-specific factors during the training process to enhance the accuracy of the predictions. We train and validate our models using ground-motion data recorded over a 20 yr period at 18 stations in the Ibaraki province, Japan, considering earthquakes in the magnitude range M 4–7. Based on goodness-of-fit measures, we demonstrate that our simulated time series closely matches recorded observations. To address the ground-motion variability, we employ a conditioned GAN approach. Finally, we compare our results with several alternative approaches for ground-motion simulation (stochastic, hybrid, and ML-based) to highlight the advantages and improvements of our method.

Published: September 2024

ABSTRACT
Seismic hazard analysis is essential for evaluating the potential consequences and dangers linked to earthquakes, particularly in areas with regular seismic activity such as central and south-central Alaska. A detailed study of attenuation can help in better defining the wave behavior and so refine the ground-motion prediction. Here, we examined the scattering (Qs−1), intrinsic (Qi−1), and coda-wave (Qc−1) attenuation in central and south-central Alaska. To do so, we performed the multiple lapse time-window analysis (MLTWA) techniques and estimated the coda energy decay. We considered earthquakes that occurred between December 2014 and December 2020, with magnitudes between 2.0 and 6.5. We observed significant spatial variations in scattering loss (Qs−1) up to 3 Hz, which diminish at 6 and 12 Hz. The Wrangell block exhibits the most significant scattering loss at a frequency of 1.5 Hz. Another area of marked scattering loss was identified north of the Alaska Range (AR), where it was pronounced up to 6 Hz. The area around Anchorage registered the lowest intrinsic absorption across all the central frequencies, whereas the highest values were detected north of the AR, particularly at 3 and 6 Hz. The seismic albedo (B0) in central and south-central Alaska varies spatially and is mainly dominated by scattering loss up to 3 Hz. Both the Chugach mountains and Yakutat block (YB) area exhibit lower B0 values at all central frequencies showing the dominance of intrinsic absorption. Low values of Qc (high attenuation) are focused almost on all the frequencies along the Denali fault and YB, showing a strong influence of these structures on the attenuation. The results yield a comprehensive understanding of the unique attenuation characteristics of each region, underscoring the significance of investigating the behavior of seismic wave attenuation for seismic risk purposes.
Rosai Dorfman Disease: A Rare Disease Case Report
Authors: Sümter Hamza , Kurban Meryem ümit 
Published: September 2024

Rosai Dorfman Disease (RDD) is a rare benign condition. It was first described by Rosai and Dorfman in the 1960s. The etiology, pathogenesis and true frequency of the disease remain unknown. The disease is characterized by the proliferation of histiocytes in the lymph nodes. Clinically, this enlargement of the lymph nodes must be distinguished from other infectious or malignant causes. Although it is often observed at early ages, in this study, a case of RDD detected in a 66-year-old male patient who came to the hematology outpatient clinic due to axillary swelling was presented. The patient is still being monitored without any symptoms,without treatment.
