About the (un)acceptability of working in the presence of the child: parents’ constructions of the child and corresponding parental responsibilities
Authors: Mikats Jana 
Published: July 2024

AbstractThe work-family literature suggests a contradictory relationship between working parenthood and (good) childhood, with disruptive or neglected children on the one side and absent or overburdened parents on the other. While the child occupies a complicated space in this relation, their position is rarely examined. Against this background, I explore the position of the child by turning to children’s co-presence during parents’ performance of home-based paid work and ask how parents construct the child and their corresponding parental responsibilities. Following a practice-theoretical framework, I approach parents’ accounts as practices of representation in which the boundaries of what was perceived as (not) acceptable ways of doing family and work were sketched out.For this purpose, I analysed 25 qualitative interviews with and about home-based working parents in the Austrian creative industries with positional maps. The parents had between one and three children in kindergarten or primary school.Parents’ constructions of the child were complex and ambiguous, as were the corresponding parental responsibilities. Meeting the child’s needs and not harming the child emerged as a common ground, yet the parents’ commitment to paid work was not questioned. Conversely, home-based work was seen as a way to meet both work and care demands. These findings suggest that home-based work may bridge ideas of good childhood and working parenthood. The paper contributes to an understanding of work and family that goes beyond simple dualism and offers new insights into parental home-based work, which remains relevant in the post-pandemic era.
Identification of Potential Biomarkers for Patients with DWI-Negative Ischemic Stroke
Authors: Li Lei , Wang Ying 
Published: July 2024

AbstractIschemic stroke is the leading cause of long-term disability in adults, accounting for 80% of stroke cases. Diffusion weighted imaging (DWI) examination is the main test for acute ischemic stroke, but in recent years, several studies have shown that some patients show negative DWI examination after the onset of ischemic stroke with symptoms of significant neurological deficits. In this study, we investigated potential biomarkers related to immune metabolism in the peripheral blood of DWI-negative versus DWI-positive patients after ischemic stroke and explored their possible regulatory processes in ischemic stroke. The datasets related to ischemic stroke were downloaded from the GEO database, immune-related genes and metabolism-related genes were obtained from the ImmPort database and MSigDB database, respectively, and immune-related differential genes were obtained based on immune scores using the algorithm of the R software package “GSVA.” Candidate genes were selected based on intersections, hub genes were screened using the algorithm in Cytoscape software, and finally, GeneMANIA analysis, GSEA enrichment analysis, subcellular localization, gene transcription factor and gene-drug interaction networks, and disease correlation analyses were performed for the hub genes. Five hub genes (GART, TYMS, PPAT, CTPS1, and PAICS) were obtained by PPI network analysis and software analysis. Among them, PPAT and PAICS may be the real hub genes with consistent and significantly differentiated results from the discovery and validation sets. The functions of these hub genes may be related to pathways such as nucleotide biosynthetic processes. The constructed hub gene ceRNA network showed that hsa-10a-5p is the key miRNA connecting PAICS and multiple lncRNAs in this study. Differential genes related to immunity and metabolism in DWI-negative and DWI-positive patients after IS were identified using bioinformatics analysis, and their pathways and related TF-RNAs, miRNAs, and lncRNAs were identified. These genes may be considered effective targets for the diagnosis and treatment of ischemic stroke.

Abstract
Cognitive impairment frequently presents as a prevalent consequence following stroke, imposing significant burdens on patients, families, and society. The objective of this study was to assess the effectiveness and underlying mechanism of nerve growth factor (NGF) in treating post-stroke cognitive dysfunction in rats with cerebral ischemia–reperfusion injury (MCAO/R) through delivery into the brain using specific mode electroacupuncture stimulation (SMES). From the 28th day after modeling, the rats were treated with NGF mediated by SMES, and the cognitive function of the rats was observed after treatment. Learning and memory ability were evaluated using behavioral tests. The impact of SMES on blood–brain barrier (BBB) permeability, the underlying mechanism of cognitive enhancement in rats with MCAO/R, including transmission electron microscopy, enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay, immunohistochemistry, immunofluorescence, and TUNEL staining. We reported that SMES demonstrates a safe and efficient ability to open the BBB during the cerebral ischemia repair phase, facilitating the delivery of NGF to the brain by the p65-VEGFA-TJs pathway.

Firm-level political risk and the firm’s trade credit extension
Authors: Hong Liu , Zhou Tianpeng 
Published: July 2024

AbstractThis paper investigates the influence of firm-level political risk on the firm’s supply of trade credit. Using a novel measure of firm-level political risk developed by Hassan et al. (2019), we find that firm-level political risk has a positive impact on the firm’s trade credit extension. We also demonstrate that our results are not driven by macro financial and political events, firm-level political sentiment and non-political risks, and macro-level economic and political factors. Our result continues to hold after addressing the potential endogeneity concern. Additionally, we find that the positive impact of political risk on trade credit extension is more pronounced for firms selling differentiated goods and services. Furthermore, we demonstrate that extending trade credit enhances firm value when a firm faces higher political risk. This paper highlights the importance of considering firm-level heterogeneity in political risk. It also contributes to the literature on the determinants of trade credit extension and deepens our understanding of the relationship between political risk, trade credit, and corporate performance.

Authors: Wardowski Dariusz 
Published: July 2024

AbstractIn the article Secelean and Wardowski (Qual Theory Dyn Syst 21:162, 2022), there were introduced iterated function systems involving certain condition of orbital type. The attractors of such IFSs substantially extend the family of fractal objects investigated so far. In the present work we provide some further properties and give the answer regarding the continuity dependence of this type of attractors with respect to the continuous change of the parameters that describe the maps of the given orbital IFS and the initially chosen compact subset.
Zonal Contrasts of the Tropical Pacific Climate Predicted by a Global Constraint

Published: July 2024

AbstractThe zonal gradients in sea surface temperature and convective heating across the tropical Pacific play a pivotal role in setting the weather and climate patterns globally. Under global warming, the current generation of climate models predict that the zonal gradients will decrease, but the trajectory of the observed trends is the opposite. Theories supporting either of the two projections exist, but there are many relevant processes whose net effect is unclear. In this study, a global constraint – the maximum material entropy production (maxMEP) hypothesis—is considered to help close the gap. The climate system considered here is comprised of a one-layer atmosphere and surface in six regions that represent the western tropical Pacific, eastern tropical Pacific, northern and southern midlatitudes, and northern and southern polar regions. The model conserves energy but does not explicitly include dynamics. The model input is observation-based radiative parameters. The radiative effect of greenhouse gas (GHG) loading is mimicked by prescribing increases in the longwave absorptivity $$\epsilon$$
ϵ
. The model solutions predict that zonal contrasts in surface temperature, convective heat flux, and surface pressure increase with increasing $$\epsilon$$
ϵ
. While maxMEP solutions in general cannot provide a definite answer to the problem, these model results strengthen the possibility that the trajectory of the observed trend reflects the response to increasing GHG loading in the atmosphere.

AbstractBroadband electromagnetic (EM) wave absorption materials play an important role in military stealth and health protection. Herein, metal–organic frameworks (MOFs)-derived magnetic-carbon CoNiM@C (M = Cu, Zn, Fe, Mn) microspheres are fabricated, which exhibit flower-like nano–microstructure with tunable EM response capacity. Based on the MOFs-derived CoNi@C microsphere, the adjacent third element is introduced into magnetic CoNi alloy to enhance EM wave absorption performance. In term of broadband absorption, the order of efficient absorption bandwidth (EAB) value is Mn > Fe = Zn > Cu in the CoNiM@C microspheres. Therefore, MOFs-derived flower-like CoNiMn@C microspheres hold outstanding broadband absorption and the EAB can reach up to 5.8 GHz (covering 12.2–18 GHz at 2.0 mm thickness). Besides, off-axis electron holography and computational simulations are applied to elucidate the inherent dielectric dissipation and magnetic loss. Rich heterointerfaces in CoNiMn@C promote the aggregation of the negative/positive charges at the contacting region, forming interfacial polarization. The graphitized carbon layer catalyzed by the magnetic CoNiMn core offered the electron mobility path, boosting the conductive loss. Equally importantly, magnetic coupling is observed in the CoNiMn@C to strengthen the magnetic responding behaviors. This study provides a new guide to build broadband EM absorption by regulating the ternary magnetic alloy.
Anomaly analytics in data-driven machine learning applications

Published: July 2024

Abstract
Machine learning is used widely to create a range of prediction or classification models. The quality of the machine learning (ML) models depends not only on the model creation process, but also on the input data quality. We investigate here the impact of data quality on the quality of the ML model in a generic way. The aim is to identify a possible data quality problem based on observed anomalies in the ML model over time. This is achieved in the form of a root cause analysis of anomalies detected in the ML model. We develop a generic anomaly detection and analysis framework and demonstrate its application to two prediction scenarios based on sensor data.

Published: July 2024

Abstract
Flood early warning systems have the potential to mitigate damages for vulnerable populations that experience river flooding in Bangladesh. We conducted a 2,247 household survey and series of focus groups to estimate the economic damages from 2016 river floods and the hypothetical savings of a 3- and 8-day warning for households living in the Jamuna River floodplain. Households were identified using geo-sampling, a novel geographic information system (GIS)–based sampling methodology that facilitates probability-based sampling where data are insufficient. Total damages for the entire flood plain in 2016 totaled to $1.3 billion, or 25% of household income and assets. Respondents estimated avoided damages from a hypothetical 3- and 8-day warning to be $73m and $85m, respectively, reflecting diminishing returns to additional days of early warning. With the hypothetical early warning, respondents derived the greatest savings from protecting their land, household/dwelling, and livestock. The greatest savings to households receiving a hypothetical additional 5 days of warning (from a 3- to an 8-day warning) would be realized in protecting agricultural production. Selling assets/livestock and employing protective sandbags were the preventative actions with the highest benefit–cost ratios that households said they would undertake. Importantly, only 11% of households received any early warning at all during the 2016 flood season, suggesting that the greatest benefits moving forward would be achieved by communicating existing or improved warnings more effectively to households in the floodplain.
Self-organization of social hierarchies studied with Monte-Carlo simulations; self-destroying join-believe-fight system as an inevitable outcome
Authors: Stallinga Peter 
Published: July 2024

AbstractMonte-Carlo simulations were used to describe the interactions between cellular automata, socio-economic ‘agents’, in society. In a first simulation we repeat work in literature of a system of independent agents. We repeat the finding that the strongest agent will confiscate all wealth. In a second simulation we show how agents can prevent against such theft, or steal better, by joining forces. So-called join-believe-fight (joining, believing unquestionably in the narrative of the faction, and fighting other factions). We now take cooperations between factions of joined agents into account. The final outcome is that society obliterates libertarians (those that are reluctant to join forces) and winds up in a situation in which all surviving agents are joined in a single faction. However, it is reasoned that then fights within this single faction will start, since this end situation resembles the starting point of entire society; the single faction has become entire society and the game recommences. It is a snake that bites its own tail and goes around forever attacking.

Published: July 2024

AbstractThe link between gut microbiota (GM) and primary osteoporosis has garnered substantial attention. In this study, we conducted a systematic review encompassing 10 studies that employed high-throughput sequencing methodologies. Notably, the taxonomic profiles exhibited pronounced heterogeneity across reviewed studies. A combined analysis of mechanistical studies screened out potential targets for osteoporosis prevention and treatment. We appraised the limitations in previous studies, and proposed suggestions for optimizing sequencing techniques and experimental designs. Larger-size longitudinal cohorts based on multi-omics and extended phenotypes are recommended to comprehensively characterize the involvement of GM in the pathogenesis of osteoporosis.

Published: July 2024

Zusammenfassung
Hintergrund
Als eine Antwort auf die zukünftigen Herausforderungen in der Versorgung werden insbesondere für den ländlichen Raum multiprofessionelle Primärversorgungszentren vorgeschlagen. Ziele dabei sind, die Koordination und Abstimmung zwischen den verschiedenen Versorgern im Sinne einer patientenorientierten Versorgung zu verbessern und gleichzeitig attraktive Arbeitsbedingungen zu schaffen. Vor diesem Hintergrund wurde 2019 das „PORT (Patientenorientierte Zentren zur Primär- und Langzeitversorgung)Gesundheitszentrum Schwäbische Alb Hohenstein“ (GZH) etabliert.

Methoden
Es wurde eine gemischt-methodische Begleitevaluation basierend auf den Zielvorstellungen für das Zentrum (PORT-Kriterien) für den Zeitraum 2019–2022 durchgeführt. Zufriedenheit und Erfahrungen mit dem Zentrum wurden im Rahmen einer schriftlichen Befragung von Besuchern in 3 Stichproben erhoben und deskriptiv ausgewertet. Zudem wurden die im Verlauf der Implementierungsphase etablierten Strukturen und Angebote erfasst.

Ergebnisse
In der Implementierungsphase wurden eine allgemeinmedizinische, pädiatrische, physiotherapeutische und chirurgische Praxis vor Ort etabliert, die im weiteren Verlauf durch psychiatrische Sprechstunden sowie eine Hebammensprechstunde erweitert wurden. Eine Lotsin ergänzte das Angebot im Hinblick auf Koordination und niedrigschwellig allgemeine Beratung. Im Verlauf hinzu kamen Beratungsangebote durch den Pflegestützpunkt und frühe Hilfen. Begleitend wurden über das Gesundheitsamt Angebote zu Themen der Gesundheitsförderung etabliert. Interprofessionelle Kooperation fand informell durch Verweise oder kurze Kontakte der Akteure innerhalb des Zentrums statt. Zudem wurden zwischen 01.2020 und 11.2020 Fallkonferenzen (n = 12) durchgeführt. Die Zufriedenheit mit dem Zentrum aus Nutzerperspektive (Score 8–32) war hoch mit Werten zwischen 30,1 (Stichprobe I, SD 2,3; n = 99) und 29,6 (Stichprobe II, SD 2,7; n = 116 bzw. Stichprobe III, SD 2,97; n = 109). Die Kooperation zwischen den Berufsgruppen wurde positiv eingeschätzt.

Diskussion
Das Zentrum konnte mit viel Engagement und finanzieller Unterstützung in einer ländlichen Region nachhaltig etabliert werden. Die Entwicklung im Beobachtungszeitraum zeigt, dass das Zentrum von der Bevölkerung gut angenommen wird und offensichtlich ein attraktives Arbeitsumfeld für das Fachpersonal geschaffen werden konnte. Dazu dürfte neben anderen Faktoren auch die etablierte interprofessionelle Zusammenarbeit im Zentrum beigetragen haben.

AbstractPrimary splenic angiosarcoma is the primary malignant vascular neoplasm of the spleen. This tumor is highly aggressive and extremely rare with a nonspecific clinical presentation. Prognosis is poor and almost all patients die within one year of diagnosis. We present the case of a 69-year-old healthy woman with left-sided abdominal tenderness. An ultrasound examination of the abdomen was performed to evaluate the cause of abdominal pain and showed splenomegaly with inhomogeneous echotexture and the presence of free intraperitoneal fluid. An emergency abdominal contrast-enhanced computed tomography confirmed the splenomegaly and showed hemoperitoneum and a splenic mass with heterogeneous contrast enhancement. Due to the sudden worsening of the patient’s clinical conditions (hemoglobin level of 7 g/dl) and the unavailability of the operating room, embolization of the splenic artery was performed as a bridge to subsequent splenectomy under the suspicion of splenic rupture. Histological examination demonstrated a primary splenic angiosarcoma and the patient was referred to an oncological center. Due to the rarity of this malignancy, the optimal treatment of primary splenic angiosarcoma remains under investigation. Transcatheter splenic artery embolization is not common, but it could be useful for temporarily stabilizing the patient as a bridge to the subsequent splenectomy.

AbstractCupric oxide (CuO) has been comprehensively studied in the field of electrochemistry due to its high Tc-Superconducting property. The present work focus on two different CuO materials i.e. CuO-1 and CuO-2 nanocrystallites which are successfully synthesized from their oxalate and adipate precursors respectively. The calcination temperature for the synthesis of CuO from their precursors is ascertained by TGA analysis of the dicarboxylates. Both the CuO materials are thoroughly characterized by SEM–EDS, XRD, IR and XPS spectroscopic techniques. As a candidate for supercapacitor electrode material, CuO-1/C and CuO-2/C showed a specific capacitance of 4.15 F/g and 22.24 F/g using cyclic voltammetry, 10.4 F/g and 46.6 F/g using GCD curves respectively at a current density of 1 A/g. Also, the CuO-1/C and CuO-2/C showed a specific energy density (Es) 1.59 Wh kg−1 and 0.36 Wh kg−1 at a specific power density (Ps) of 0.02 kW kg−1 and 0.025 kW kg−1 respectively. Moreover, the CuO-2/C exhibits ≈ 96.1% coulombic efficiency following 1000 cycles, whereas, CuO-1/C lags in coulombic efficiency with only 51.8%. As a better candidate, CuO-2/C exhibited excellent rate capability with an outstanding cycling stability of 93.7% retention after 1,000 cycles. The factors contributing to the significant specific capacitance of CuO-2/C along with better stability and reproducibility are its low electrolyte resistance Rs (2.47Ω) and charge transfer resistance Rct (1.01 Ω).
