AbstractStructural information deficits about aging bridges have led to several avoidable catastrophes in recent years. Data-driven methods for bridge vibration monitoring enable frequent, accurate structural assessments; however, the high costs of widespread deployments of these systems make important condition information a luxury for bridge owners. Smartphone-based monitoring is inexpensive and has produced structural information, i.e., modal frequencies, in crowdsensing applications. Even so, current methods cannot extract spatial vibration characteristics with uncontrolled datasets that are needed for damage identification. Here we present an extensive real-world study with crowdsourced smartphone-vehicle trips within motor vehicles in which we estimate absolute value mode shapes and simulate damage detection capabilities. Our method analyzes over 800 trips across four road bridges with main spans ranging from 30 to 1300 m in length, representing about one-quarter of bridges in the United States. We demonstrate a bridge health monitoring platform compatible with ride-sourcing data streams that check conditions daily. The result has the potential to commodify data-driven structural assessments globally.
A Preliminary Investigation of Within-Word Silent Intervals Produced by Children With and Without Neurodevelopmental Disorders
Authors: Darling-White Meghan , Sisk Christine N. 
Published: July 2024

Purpose:
The categorization of silent intervals during speech production is necessary for accurate measurement of articulation rate and pauses. The primary purpose of this preliminary study was to examine the within-word silent interval associated with the stop closure in word-final stop consonants produced by children with and without neurodevelopmental disorders.

Method:
Seven children diagnosed with either cerebral palsy or Down syndrome (i.e., children with neurodevelopmental disorders) and eight typically developing children produced a reading passage. Participants were between the ages of 11 and 16 years. Fifty-eight words from the reading passage were identified as having word-final stop consonants. The closure duration of the word-final stop consonant was calculated, both in absolute duration and percent pause time. The articulation rate of the entire passage was calculated. The number of closure durations that met or exceeded the minimum duration threshold to be considered a pause (150 ms) was examined descriptively.

Results:
Children with neurodevelopmental disorders produced significantly longer closure durations and significantly slower articulation rates than typically developing children. Children with neurodevelopmental disorders produced closure durations that met or exceeded the minimum duration threshold of a pause, but typically developing children, generally, did not.

Conclusion:
These data indicate the need to examine the location of silent intervals that meet the minimum duration threshold of a pause and correct for articulatory events during the measurement of articulation rate and pauses in children with neurodevelopmental disorders.
Are Written Syntax Features Related to Writing Quality? An Examination of Spanish and English Compositions by Bilingual Children
Authors: Wolters Alissa Patricia , Kim Young-Suk Grace 
Published: July 2024

Purpose:
There is limited research on the writing of young Spanish–English bilinguals and their writing in both languages. In the current study, we addressed whether written syntax features differed by language (English and Spanish) and varied as a function of grade level, English learner status, and instructional program (dual or English immersion). We also examined whether Spanish and English syntax features were related cross-linguistically and related to writing quality within languages and whether these relations to writing quality were moderated by grade level, English learner status, and instructional program.

Method:

We examined written syntax features of Spanish and English essays by simultaneous and emergent bilinguals in Grades 1, 2, and 3 in either Spanish–English dual immersion or English immersion instruction in the United States (
N
= 278). Essays were scored for quality and evaluated for mean length of T-units, number of verbs, number of noun agreement words, and number of subject agreement words accurately conjugated.

Results:
Written syntax features significantly differed by language and varied as a function of grade level, English learner status, and instructional program. Grades 2 and 3 wrote longer utterances, more verbs, and greater noun agreement accuracy than Grade 1. Syntax features were related to writing quality within languages, but Spanish relations were weaker for English learners than non-English learners and for dual immersion students than English immersion students.

Conclusion:
Our findings suggest written syntax features may be useful for evaluation of English–Spanish simultaneous and emergent bilinguals' writing.

Spectral properties of bright deposits in permanently shadowed craters on Ceres
Authors: Schröder Stefan , Schörghofer Norbert , Mazarico Erwan , Carsenty Uri 
Published: July 2024

Context. Bright deposits in permanently shadowed craters on Ceres are thought to harbor water ice. However, the evidence for water ice presented thus far is indirect.
Aims. We aim to directly detect the spectral characteristics of water ice in bright deposits present in permanently shadowed regions (PSRs) in polar craters on Ceres.
Methods. We analyzed narrowband images of four of the largest shadowed bright deposits acquired by the Dawn Framing Camera to reconstruct their reflectance spectra, carefully considering issues such as in-field stray light correction and image compression artifacts.
Results. The sunlit portion of a polar deposit known to harbor water ice has a negative (blue) spectral slope of −58 ± 12% µm−1 relative to the background in the visible wavelength range. We find that the PSR bright deposits have similarly blue spectral slopes, consistent with a water ice composition. Based on the brightness and spectral properties, we argue that the ice is likely present as particles of high purity. Other components such as phyllosilicates may be mixed in with the ice. Salts are an unlikely brightening agent given their association with cryovolcanic processes, of which we find no trace.
Conclusions. Our spectral analysis strengthens the case for the presence of water ice in permanently shadowed craters on Ceres.
Unequal-mass highly spinning binary black hole mergers in the stable mass transfer formation channel

Published: July 2024

Context. The growing database of gravitational wave (GW) detections with binary black holes (BHs) merging in the distant Universe contains subtle insights into their formation scenarios.
Aims. We investigated one of the puzzling properties of detected GW sources, namely, the possible (anti)correlation between the mass ratio q of BH-BH binaries and their effective spin χeff. In particular, unequal-mass systems tend to exhibit higher spins than those with nearly equal-mass BH components.
Methods. We used rapid binary evolution models to demonstrate that the isolated binary evolution followed by efficient tidal spin-up of stripped helium core produces a similar pattern in χeff versus q distributions of BH–BH mergers.
Results. In our models, the progenitors of unequal BH-BH systems in the stable mass transfer formation scenario are more likely to efficiently shrink their orbits during the second Roche-lobe overflow than the binaries that evolve into nearly equal-mass component systems. This makes it easier for unequal-mass progenitors to enter the tidal spin-up regime and later merge due to GW emission. Our results are, however, sensitive to some input assumptions, especially the stability of mass transfer and the angular momentum loss during nonconservative mass transfer. We note that mass transfer prescriptions widely adopted in rapid codes favor the formation of BH–BH merger progenitors with unequal masses and moderate separations. We compared our results with detailed stellar model grids and found reasonable agreement after appropriate calibration of the physics models.
Conclusions. We anticipate that future detections of unequal-mass BH–BH mergers could provide valuable constraints on the role of the stable mass transfer formation channel. A significant fraction of BH-BH detections with mass ratio q ∈ (0.4 − 0.7) would be consistent with having a mass ratio reversal scenario during the first relatively conservative mass transfer and a non-enhanced angular momentum loss during the second highly nonconservative mass transfer phase.
First detection of theJ−1 → (J − 1)0 − Emethanol maser transitions atJ = 7 and 10

Context.Class I methanol masers provide sensitive information about the shocked environment around star-forming regions. Among the brightest Class I methanol masers, we have those in theJ−1 → (J − 1)0 − Eline series, currently reported for theJ = 4 − 9 transitions, with the only exception being theJ = 7 one at 181.295 GHz, and never expanded to higherJtransitions.Aims.We aim to search for population inversion in the 7−1 → 60 − Eand 10−1 → 90 − Emethanol transition lines at 181.295 and 326.961 GHz, respectively, and also extend the number of known low-mass star-forming sources harboring Class I methanol masers.Methods.We employed the Atacama Pathfinder Experiment (APEX) 12 m telescope to survey low-mass Galactic sources, focusing on methanol emission lines. We built rotation diagrams for all sources with detectedJ = 7 methanol line transitions, while employing radiative transfer modeling (both in and out of local thermodynamic equilibrium) to characterize methanol excitation conditions in detail for one specific source with detected masers.Results.We detected the 7−1 → 60 − Eand 10−1 → 90 − Emethanol transitions in 6 out of 19 sources. Among them, we firmly determined the 10−1 → 90 − Emaser nature in CARMA 7, L1641N, NGC 2024, and Serpens FIRS, and we show evidence for the presence of inverted population emission in the 7−1 → 60 − Eline toward CARMA 7 and L1641N. This represents the first report of methanol maser emission in these particular transitions. Our study supports previous works indicating that conditions for Class I methanol maser emission are satisfied in low-mass star-forming regions and expands the range of detectable frequencies toward higher values.
Eosinophile Granulomatose mit Polyangiitis – ein Übersichtsartikel
Authors: Schindler Viktoria , Venhoff Nils 
Published: July 2024

ZusammenfassungDie eosinophile Granulomatose mit Polyangiitis (EGPA) ist eine seltene Form der ANCA-assoziierten Vaskulitiden (AAV) aus der Gruppe der Kleingefäßvaskulitiden. Sie ist definiert als eine Vaskulitis kleiner und mittelgroßer Gefäße mit granulomatöser Entzündung sowie Blut- und Gewebseosinophilie. Fast alle Patienten haben allergische Symptome mit Asthma bronchiale und rhinosinusitischen Beschwerden. Das sonstige klinische Spektrum variiert je nach Lokalisation, Schweregrad und Art der Krankheitsmanifestation. Durch die eosinophile Infiltration und Inflammation kann es zu Rhinosinusitis, Pneumonitis, gastrointestinaler Beteiligung und Kardiomyopathie kommen. Insbesondere Letztere ist mit einer schlechteren Prognose assoziiert. Als nekrotisierende pauci-immune Kleingefäßvaskulitis kann die EGPA, ähnlich wie die anderen AAV, pulmonale Infiltrate mit alveolärer Hämorrhagie, eine Glomerulonephritis, kutane Vaskulitis mit Purpura, sowie zentrale und periphere neurologische Schädigungen verursachen. Das Auftreten perinukleärer ANCA (pANCA), mit Spezifität gegen die Myeloperoxidase (MPO) wird in etwa einem Drittel der Fälle beobachtet, ist allerdings nicht spezifisch für die EGPA. MPO-ANCA-positive Patienten haben häufiger eine periphere neurologische Beteiligung und eine Glomerulonephritis, während ANCA-negative Patienten häufiger eine kardiale und pulmonale Beteiligung aufweisen. Eine differentialdiagnostische Herausforderung im klinischen Alltag stellt die Abgrenzung zum hypereosinophilen Syndrom (HES) dar. Das Therapiekonzept der EGPA hängt davon ab, ob der Schweregrad der Erkrankung potentiell Organ- oder lebensbedrohlich ist. Bei schweren Formen der EGPA werden in der Akuttherapie hauptsächlich Glukokortikoide in Kombination mit Cyclophosphamid eingesetzt. Rituximab wird mittlerweile als alternative Behandlungsoption in den Leitlinien genannt. Zur Remissionserhaltung stehen verschiedene immunsuppressive Therapien zur Verfügung. Bei EGPA ohne schwere Organbeteiligung ist die IL-5 Blockade mit Mepolizumab zugelassen.
Rheumatologische Paraneoplasie bei myelodysplastischem
Syndrom
Authors: Unger Leonore , Stölzel Ulrich , Stölzel Friedrich 
Published: July 2024

ZusammenfassungEine 79-jährige Patientin wurde unter dem Verdacht einer Polymyalgia rheumatica
bei seronegativer Rheumatoider Arthritis mehrfach mit hochdosierten
Glukokortikoiden und schließlich TNF- Blockern behandelt. Trotz dieser
intensiven Therapie litt sie weiter unter unerträglichen immobilisierenden
Myalgien und Arthralgien und benötigte zusätzlich eine kombinierte
Schmerztherapie einschließlich Opiate. Die vorher sehr aktive und sich
vollständig selbst versorgende Frau musste schließlich in ein Pflegeheim
eingewiesen werden. Von Anfang an bestand der Verdacht auf eine
myelodysplastische Neoplasie. Zunächst als MDS-MLD (MDS mit Dysplasien mehrerer
Linien) eingestuft, wurde diesbezüglich eine watch and wait- Strategie verfolgt.
Die nicht zu beherrschende Schmerzsituation führte zu engmaschigen
Wiederholungen der Knochenmarkbiopsie und letztlich zur Klassifizierung in ein
MDS-EB1 (MDS mit Blastenexzess Grad 1). Ein vermutetes Marie-Bamberger-Syndrom
konnte nicht bewiesen werden. Die Auffälligkeiten im Knochenstoffwechsel waren
durch Störungen im Parathormonstoffwechsel bei Zustand nach
Hyperparathyreoidismus bei Nebenschiddrüsenadenom und Zustand nach totaler
Strumektomie, komplex. Wenige Monate nach Beginn einer Therapie mit Azacitidin
kam es zu einer dramatischen Besserung der Myalgien, Arthralgien und
Knochenschmerzen. Die Patientin konnte das Pflegeheim verlassen und in ihre
Wohnung zurückziehen. Die TNF- Blocker-Therapie wurde beendet. Ausgeprägte
paraneoplastische Symptome wie die hier geschilderten Myalgien, Arthralgien und
Knochenschmerzen sollten zu einer engmaschigen Kontrolle der Klassifikation des
MDS und zu einem frühzeitigen Beginn einer spezifischen Therapie mit dem Ziel
der Erhaltung der Lebensqualität und der Autonomie führen.

Neurodengue, a narrative review of the literature
Authors: Araujo Abelardo Queiroz Campos , Lima Marco Antonio , Silva Marcus Tulius Teixeira 
Published: July 2024

AbstractDengue fever (DF) is the most frequent arboviral disease globally. Deforestation, armed conflicts, and climate change have caused an unprecedented global spread of DF, raising concerns in healthcare systems worldwide. Systemic manifestations of the disease range from mild to severe and, in some cases, can lead to death. Although neurological complications have been reported over the last few decades, they are often neglected or underreported. The present narrative review aims to describe the most important central and peripheral nervous system complications and provide guidance to neurologists in terms of diagnosis and management.

Authors: Mirzaei Siroos , Kunstfeld Rainer 
Published: July 2024

Abstract
Aim High-dose epidermal radionuclide therapy using a nonsealed 188Re (Rhenium) resin is an alternative treatment option for nonmelanoma skin cancer. In this case study, we present the possible use of this therapy in a patient with multiple actinic keratosis (AK), which is a precancer of the skin.
Methods A 55-year-old male was presented in our department with multiple AK, located on the cheek, temporal, and frontal area, with 1, 1, 2.1, and 2.5 cm2 surface.Applied activity was 80, 80, 167, and 168 MBq 188Re with a target absorbed dose for each lesion 35 Gy at 1 mm. The treatment was well tolerated.
Results At 17 months’ follow-up, all treated area showed complete remission. There were no side effects, except mild focal hypopigmentation.
Conclusion This case demonstrates the high potential of epidermal radionuclide therapy with a nonsealed 188Re as a noninvasive, effective, and well-tolerated therapy option for patients with multiple AK, when surgery is difficult to perform or not recommended of other reasons.
On bias and its reduction via standardization in discretized electromagnetic source localization problems
Authors: Lahtinen Joonas 
Published: July 2024

Abstract
In electromagnetic source localization problems stemming from linearized Poisson-type equation, the aim is to locate the sources within a domain that produce given measurements on the boundary. In this type of problem, biasing of the solution is one of the main causes of mislocalization. A technique called standardization was developed to reduce biasing. However, the lack of a mathematical foundation for this method can cause difficulties in its application and confusion regarding the reliability of solutions. Here, we give a rigorous and generalized treatment for the technique using the Bayesian framework to shed light on the technique’s abilities and limitations. In addition, we take a look at the noise robustness of the method that is widely reported in numerical studies. The paper starts by giving a gentle introduction to the problem and its bias and works its way toward standardization.
Strong antiferromagnetic exchange coupling at Gd2O3/GdFeO3 interfaces in nanoparticle ensembles

Published: July 2024

Abstract
Signatures of strong antiferromagnetic exchange coupling at the interface of Gd2O3/GdFeO3 subphases of gadolinium nickel zinc ferrite nanoparticle ensemble have been observed. Hybridized domain walls are exchange coupled to the magnetic subphases on both sides of the interface. Origin of the coupling is in the quantum interference of the Bloch waves with the energy states within the domain walls. The coupling mechanism intensifies at low temperatures. A constriction in the middle of the hysteresis loop (at H = 0) is believed to be the result of antiferromagnetic transitions which becomes narrow at 5 K. The constriction effectively divides the hysteresis loop in two parts, confining spin vector components in the positive and negative quadrants. The magnetic susceptibility clearly shows antiferromagnetic transition temperature (TN) of approximately 17 K.
Consideration of the conversion factor from air dose rates to individual external dose per hour after the Fukushima accident—individual external dose measurements of a TEPCO employee in Fukushima prefecture over a 9 year period—

Published: July 2024

Abstract
The accident at Fukushima Daiichi Nuclear Power Plant (FDNPP) in 2011 resulted in the dispersion of radioactive materials throughout the surrounding area and an increase in the air dose rate was even confirmed in Fukushima City, which is located approximately 60 km northeast of FDNPP. A Tokyo Electric Power Company (TEPCO) Holdings employee, who has lived and worked in Fukushima City since the FDNPP accident, measured individual external doses, GPS data, and his activities in Fukushima Prefecture over a 9 year period beginning in 2014. This data provides valuable information about the area. The data show the following results. (i) Comparison of the air dose rate at the home location to the individual external dose per hour at the home shows that the average conversion factor has increased over the 9 years and exceeded 0.3 since 2019, indicating an overall relatively good correlation. (ii) Individual external doses measured in the office on the fourth floor of a concrete structure in Fukushima City have not changed significantly from 2014 to 2022, when air dose rates showed a decrease. (iii) Outdoor individual external doses, such as those measured when commuting on foot, have a relatively strong correlation with air dose rates from airborne monitoring with the conversion factor of about 0.6. The conversion factor do not differ significantly from 2014 to 2022.
In this study, the individual external dose data is applicable to the TEPCO measurer and is not necessarily representative of all residents of Fukushima City. However individual external dose data for 9 consecutive years will be useful for estimating individual external doses from air dose rates, and estimating annual additional exposure doses, if even some of them are applicable to similar life patterns and lifestyles.
Monitoring of surgical staff x-ray exposure in the operating room with DosiBadge

Published: July 2024

Abstract
Surgical procedures involving the use of x-rays in the operating room (OR) have increased in recent years, thereby increasing the exposure of OR staff to ionizing radiation. An individual dosimeter makes it possible to record the radiation exposure to which these personnel are exposed, but there is a lack of compliance in the wearing of these dosimeters for several practical reasons. This makes the dose results obtained unreliable. To try to improve the rate of dosimeter wearing in the OR, the Dosibadge project studied the association of the individual dosimeter with the hospital access badge, forming the Dosibadge. Through a study performed at the Tours University Hospital in eight different ORs for two consecutive periods of 3 months. The results show a significant increase in the systematic use of the dosimeter thanks to the Dosibadge, which improves the reliability of the doses obtained on the dosimeters and the monitoring of personnel. The increase is especially marked with clinicians. Following these results and the very positive feedback to this first single-centre study, we are then planning a second multicentre study to validate our proof of concept on different sites, with the three brands of individual dosimeters used in France i.e. dosimeters supplied by Dosilab; Landauer and IRSN.
