Published: July 2024

AbstractThere is growing evidence that gambling advertising disproportionately affects those experiencing more severe gambling harm. Such association has been studied by recruiting gamblers using online panels, by analysing registered users’ data from gambling websites, and through surveys and focus group interviews. However, it is thought that these methods tend to overestimate gambling severity. The present study employed a sample of gamblers with a verified gambling disorder diagnosis (N = 210, 7.1% females, Mage = 39.4 years) recruited for a period of under two years at a large public hospital. It examined the relationship between self-reported impact of gambling advertising, gambling preference (strategic versus non-strategic) and gambling modality (online versus in-person). The results indicated that higher perceived impact of gambling advertising predicted higher gambling severity, which supports previous findings obtained from non-clinical settings. However, contrary to what was expected, strategic gambling and online gambling were not associated with higher perceived impact of gambling advertising, even though these groups are believed to be exposed to more gambling marketing and advertising from gambling operators. The study aligns well with available scientific evidence proposing further restrictions on gambling advertising regulation due to their disproportionate impact on those already experiencing gambling harm.

Abstract
Context
Human disturbance has transformed ecosystems globally, yet studies of the ecological impact of landscape modification are often confounded. Non-random patterns of land clearing cause differing vegetation types and soil productivity between fragments in modified landscapes and reference areas—like national parks—with which they are compared.

Objectives
We sought to explore the influence of land modification on herpetofauna and small mammal communities using multiple biodiversity measures—species richness and diversity, individual species abundance, and community composition. We also aimed to investigate the role of traits such as diet, habitat breadth, and litter size in moderating species responses to land modification.

Methods
We established 100 sampling sites to survey herpetofauna and small mammals in 11 fragments in an agricultural landscape compared to 11 ecologically equivalent ‘pseudo-fragments’ in a nearby national park in south-eastern Australia. We selected pairs of fragments and pseudo-fragments of the same size and vegetation type, and used identical survey methods to sample pairs simultaneously, thereby controlling for numerous confounding factors, such as differing vegetation type, weather, and survey effort.

Results
Species richness and diversity were similar between fragments and pseudo-fragments. Despite this, we found community composition differed markedly—driven by the varying responses of individual species—indicating a shift in fauna communities associated with land modification. Fossorial habit, omnivorous diet, and broad habitat requirements led to higher abundance in fragments whilst arboreality, carnivorous diet, and narrow habitat requirements led to higher abundance in pseudo-fragments.

Conclusions
Although fragments hold similar numbers of species to continuous areas, they contain distinct and novel communities, and sustain high abundances of some species. These diverse communities are dominated by native species, including threatened species, and their distinctive composition is shaped by traits conducive to persistence amidst land modification. These novel communities may provide a reservoir of resilience in the face of environmental change and should be viewed as complementary to conservation areas.
FSPDD: A double-branch attention guided network for few-shot PCB defect detection

Published: July 2024

AbstractDuring the production of printed circuit board (PCB), there will be defects due to inappropriate operations, which will affect the use of electronic products. Majority defect detection methods cost a large number of annotated samples to train detection models. However, PCB defect samples are difficult to collect. Moreover, existing few-shot object detection methods tend to extracting low-level features from support and query images via the shared backbone such as ResNet-50. However, it is not sufficient to obtain fine-grained prior guidance. To address the above issues, we propose a few-shot PCB defect detection model with double-branch attention. Specifically, the joint attention enhancement (JAE) module is proposed to fully mine effective information of query PCB images in multiple dimensions to enhance the representation of latent defects. Then, the multi-scale guidance (MSG) module is proposed to integrate prior knowledge within support PCB images into vectors to reweight query PCB images. Experiments on the PCB defect dataset demonstrate that AP of FSPDD outperforms state-of-the-art methods under different shot settings (k=1,2,3,5,10,30) and our proposed FSPDD has a good generalization ability, in which AP reachs 0.273 when $$k=30$$

AbstractWater-soluble and trace metal species in fine particulate matter (PM2.5) were determined for indoor and outdoor environments in Doha, Qatar. During the study period, PM2.5 concentrations showed significant variability across several indoor locations ranging from 7.1 to 75.8 μg m−3, while the outdoor mass concentration range was 34.7–154.4 µg m−3. The indoor and outdoor PM2.5 levels did not exhibit statistically significant correlation, suggesting efficient building envelope protection against outdoor PM2.5 pollution. Rather than outdoor sources, human activities such as cooking, cleaning, and smoking were the most significant influence on chemical composition of indoor PM2.5. NH4+ concentration was insufficient to neutralize SO42− indoors and outdoors, indicating the predominant presence of NH4HSO4. The enrichment factors indicated that outdoor Fe, Mn, Co, Cr, and Ni in PM2.5 mostly originated from crustal sources. In contrast, the remaining outdoor trace metals (Cu, Zn, As, Cd, Pb, and V) were mainly derived from anthropogenic sources. The indoor/outdoor concentration ratios revealed significant indoor sources for NH4+ and Cu. The crustal matter, water-soluble ions, and sea salt explained 42%, 21%, and 1% of the indoor PM2.5 mass, respectively. The same groups sequentially constituted 41%, 16%, and 1% of the outdoor PM2.5 mass.

Published: July 2024

AbstractOsteoporosis is the most prevalent skeletal disorder, a condition that is associated with significant social and healthcare burden. In the elderly, osteoporosis is commonly associated with sarcopenia, further increasing the risk of fracture. Several imaging techniques are available for a non-invasive evaluation of osteoporosis and sarcopenia. This review focuses on dual-energy X-ray absorptiometry (DXA), as this technique offers the possibility to evaluate bone mineral density and body composition parameters with good precision and accuracy. DXA is also able to evaluate the amount of aortic calcification for cardiovascular risk estimation. Additionally, new DXA-based parameters have been developed in recent years to further refine fracture risk estimation, such as the Trabecular Bone Score and the Bone Strain Index. Finally, we describe the recent advances of a newly developed ultrasound-based technology known as Radiofrequency Echographic Multi-Spectrometry, which represent the latest non-ionizing approach for osteoporosis evaluation at central sites.
Wars Come and Go, International Society Changes, and Religions Endure: Narratives of Religious Actors on the Ukraine War
Authors: McLarren Katharina 
Published: July 2024

AbstractIn the wake of the Russian invasion of Ukraine, reactions by religious leaders have differed greatly, with the Shia Ayatollah blaming the United States for the war, the Catholic Pope calling the United Nations “impotent,” and the Dalai Lama stating that “war is outdated.” But has there been a change in any of these religious narratives when it comes to war? Does the Ukraine war signify a turning point, or can we observe more of the same? Embedded in an English School framework, this article conducts a narrative analysis to better understand whether and how the primary institutions of war and international law are being (re)interpreted. The article analyses these three religious actors’ narratives on the Ukraine war and compares them to their respective past war narratives. The article examines how these narratives reflect a strengthening and even an expansion or an undermining and thus weakening of international society, with a particular emphasis on the primary institutions of war and international law as well as the secondary institution of the United Nations. The article argues that at least for religious actors in international politics, the Ukraine war does not pose a formative event in global security policy. Instead, these actors may have missed a critical juncture for strengthening or even upholding international law.

AbstractThe osteon is the primary structural component of bone, contributing significantly to its unique toughness and strength. Despite extensive research on osteonal structure, the properties of osteons have not been fully investigated, particularly within the context of bone fragility diseases like type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM). This study aims to isolate osteons from bovine bone, simulate the effects of increased advanced glycation end-products (AGEs) in T2DM through ribosylation, and evaluate the mechanical properties of isolated osteons. Osteons extracted from the posterior section of bovine femur mid-diaphysis were processed to achieve a sub-millimeter scale for microscale imaging. Subsequently, synchrotron radiation micro-computed tomography was employed to precisely localize and isolate the osteon internally. While comparable elastic properties were observed between control and ribosylated osteons, the presence of AGEs led to decreased strain to failure. Young’s modulus was quantified (9.9 ± 4.9 GPa and 8.7 ± 3 GPa, respectively), aligning closely with existing literature. This study presents a novel method for the extraction and isolation of osteons from bone and shows the detrimental effect of AGEs at the osteonal level.

AbstractTwo experiments were conducted to examine the impact of trace mineral (TM) source on in vitro and in vivo solubility characteristics. Experiment 1: Hydroxy TM (HTM) and sulfate TM (STM) sources of Cu, Mn, and Zn were incubated separately in water for 24 h. Immediately after mixing, initial pH of each solution was greater (P < 0.03) for HTM compared to STM for all elements. Final pH tended to be greater for Cu (P = 0.09) and Zn (P = 0.07) from HTM compared to STM. Water solubility of Cu, Mn, and Zn from STM was greater (P < 0.01) than HTM sources. Experiment 2: Eight steers fitted with rumen cannula were blocked by body weight and randomly assigned to treatments. Treatments consisted of 10 mg Cu, 40 mg Mn, and 60 mg Zn/kg DM from either STM or HTM sources. Steers were individually fed a cracked corn-corn silage-based diet. Treatments were top-dressed daily. Rumen contents were collected at 0, 2, and 4 h post-feeding on d 1 and 14. On d 15, strained ruminal fluid and particle-associated microorganisms were obtained. Zinc was more tightly bound (P = 0.01) to the digesta in HTM-supplemented steers compared to STM on d 14. These data indicate that TM source influences pH and solubility of Cu, Mn, and Zn in water and may affect rumen soluble Cu concentrations and binding strength of Zn to solid digesta.

Published: July 2024

AbstractOver the past decade, the intricacies of sports-related concussions among female athletes have become readily apparent. Traditional clinical methods for diagnosing concussions suffer limitations when applied to female athletes, often failing to capture subtle changes in brain structure and function. Advanced neuroinformatics techniques and machine learning models have become invaluable assets in this endeavor. While these technologies have been extensively employed in understanding concussion in male athletes, there remains a significant gap in our comprehension of their effectiveness for female athletes. With its remarkable data analysis capacity, machine learning offers a promising avenue to bridge this deficit. By harnessing the power of machine learning, researchers can link observed phenotypic neuroimaging data to sex-specific biological mechanisms, unraveling the mysteries of concussions in female athletes. Furthermore, embedding methods within machine learning enable examining brain architecture and its alterations beyond the conventional anatomical reference frame. In turn, allows researchers to gain deeper insights into the dynamics of concussions, treatment responses, and recovery processes. This paper endeavors to address the crucial issue of sex differences in multimodal neuroimaging experimental design and machine learning approaches within female athlete populations, ultimately ensuring that they receive the tailored care they require when facing the challenges of concussions. Through better data integration, feature identification, knowledge representation, validation, etc., neuroinformaticists, are ideally suited to bring clarity, context, and explainabilty to the study of sports-related head injuries in males and in females, and helping to define recovery.
Has the European Union (tacitly) adopted a Trinko doctrine, giving priority to sector regulation?
Authors: Bergqvist Christian 
Published: July 2024

AbstractIn U.S. antitrust, a level of implied immunity is afforded to matters governed by sector regulation, often referred to as the “Trinko-doctrine.” In contrast, no such immunity is assumed in European Union competition law, where by contrast, there is only a very narrow regulatory defence if laws mandate a specific (anti-competitive) course of action. As always, matters are more nuanced in practice. Not only did the Court of Justice of the European Union, the European Union’s highest legal authority, recently suggest an obligation to halt competition law investigation if sector regulations are available, this has tacitly been practiced for years, indicating a more complex relationship and a possible European Union Trinko-doctrine. Following the adoption of the EU’s Digital Market Act, this has relevance beyond the traditional regulated sector, warranting some considerations.

AbstractIn the 2nd century AD, Galen argued that the failure to remove any single ‘root’ of a malignant tumor could result in a local relapse. After nearly 2 millennia, this problem appears to be even more challenging due to our increased understanding of the complexity of tumor formation and spread. Pathological analysis of tumor margins under a microscope remains the primary and only accepted method for confirming the complete tumor removal. However, this method is not an all-or-nothing test, and it can be compromised by various intrinsic and extrinsic limitations. Among the intrinsic limitations of pathological analysis we recall the pathologist handling, tissue shrinkage, the detection of minimal residual disease and the persistence of a precancerous field. Extrinsic limitations relate to surgical tools and their thermal damage, the different kinds of surgical resections and frozen sections collection. Surgeons, as well as oncologists and radiotherapists, should be well aware of and deeply understand these limitations to avoid misinterpretation of margin status, which can have serious consequences. Meanwhile, new technologies such as Narrow band imaging have shown promising results in assisting with the achievement of clear superficial resection margins. More recently, emerging techniques like Raman spectroscopy and near-infrared fluorescence have shown potential as real-time guides for surgical resection.The aim of this narrative review is to provide valuable insights into the complex process of margin analysis and underscore the importance of interdisciplinary collaboration between pathologists, surgeons, oncologists, and radiotherapists to optimize patient outcomes in oral cancer surgery.
The role of emotions in climate change communication: Examining the effects of strategy and issue framing on emotional responses and online climate action intentions
Authors: Liu Shujun , Kuang Kai 
Published: July 2024

AbstractThe way in which climate change-related information is framed can influence not only cognitive outcomes but also emotional responses. This web-based experiment (n = 331) investigated the effects of strategy framing and issue framing on emotions and online climate action intentions in the context of climate relationship between China and the United States. Results indicated that strategy framing increased negative emotions (i.e., anxiety and anger), whereas issue framing triggered more positive emotions (i.e., pride and excitement). No significant difference was observed regarding climate action intentions between two groups. Additionally, anxiety and anger mediated the effects of message framing on online climate action intentions. Habitual worry about climate change and attitude toward China-U.S. climate collaboration moderated the effects of strategy framing and issue framing on discrete emotions. The findings offer theoretical insights regarding emotional responses to strategy framing and practical implications on climate communication.
Diagnosis and Management of Hypertension in Adolescents with Obesity

Published: July 2024

Abstract
Purpose of Review
Hypertension (HTN) and obesity are increasing in prevalence and severity in adolescents and have significant implications for long term morbidity and mortality. This review focuses on the diagnosis and management of HTN in adolescents with obesity with an emphasis on co-management of the two conditions.

Recent Findings
Recent studies affirm the increasing prevalence of abnormal blood pressures and diagnoses of HTN associated with increased adiposity. Current guidelines recommend routine screening with proper technique for HTN in patients with obesity. Additionally, obesity and HTN related co-occurring medical conditions should be evaluated as there is frequently a bidirectional impact on risk and outcomes. Importantly, advances in adolescent obesity management have subsequently led to positive implications for the management of obesity-related comorbidities such as HTN. The co-management of obesity and HTN is an emerging strategy for treatment and prevention of additional morbidity and mortality as patients progress to adulthood.

Summary
In adolescent patients with obesity, prompt recognition and appropriate diagnosis of HTN as well as related co-occurring conditions are necessary first steps in management. Co-management of obesity and HTN is likely to lead to improved outcomes. While lifestyle interventions serve as the foundation to this management, adjunctive and emerging therapies should be considered to adequately treat both conditions.
Control of visible-range transmission and reflection haze by varying pattern size, shape and depth in flexible metasurfaces

Published: July 2024

AbstractCost-effective soft imprint lithography technique is used to prepare flexible thin polymeric surfaces containing a periodic arrangement of nanodimples and nanobumps of sub-micron size. Using a single master mold of self-assembled colloidal crystal, metasurfaces with different depths and heights of patterns with a fixed pitch are possible, which makes the process inexpensive and simple. These metasurfaces are studied for their diffuse and total transmission and reflection spectra in the visible range. The transmission haze and reflection haze are calculated from the measurements. The surface containing nanobumps of lesser pattern height result in higher values of reflection and transmission haze than from surfaces containing nanodimples of much higher depth for the same pitch. The haze is more dependent on the pattern depth or height and less dependent on the pitch of the pattern. Far-field transmission profiles measured in the same wavelength range from the patterned surfaces show that the scattering increases with the increase of the ratio of pattern depth/height to pitch, similar to the haze measurements conducted with a closed integrating sphere. These profiles show that the angular spread of scattered light in transmission is within 10°, explaining the reason for the relatively low transmission haze in all the patterned surfaces. Simulation results confirm that the nanobump pattern gives higher transmission haze compared to nanodimple pattern. By controlling the ratio of pattern depth/height to pitch of the features on these surfaces, both an increase in optical haze and a balance between total reflection intensity and total transmission intensity can be achieved.
