Exploring the Driving Forces of the Correlations Between China's Crude Oil Futures and Global and Regional Benchmarks
Authors: Liu Min , Lee Chien‐Chiang 
Published: February 2025

ABSTRACTThe launch of the Shanghai International Energy Exchange crude oil futures (INECOFs) is a milestone in China's path to a dominant position in the global energy market. As INECOFs attract more and more investors, understanding the long‐term correlations between INECOFs and global and regional benchmarks, as well as the driving forces of these correlations, is of paramount interest to investors wishing to conduct risk management and portfolio diversification. This article makes the first attempt to explore the determinants of such correlations using the mixed‐frequency approach. Our results show that INECOFs are highly correlated with the regional benchmarks and less correlated with the global benchmarks. China's crude oil imports, RMB internationalization, the RMB index, economic and trade policy uncertainty, and geopolitical risks significantly impact the dynamics of the correlations in question. China's gross industrial product and price levels cannot drive the movements of all the studied correlations.

Published: February 2025

ABSTRACTThe North Yellow Sea Basin in the Eastern North China Craton preserves the Upper Jurassic–Lower Cretaceous, and the sedimentary processes of the basin provide clear tectonic transformation records. The Upper Jurassic–Lower Cretaceous detrital mode analysis of sandstone and Lower Cretaceous detrital zircon U–Pb chronology was used to trace the sedimentary provenance and discuss how the sedimentary process records tectonic transformation. The detrital mode analysis of the sandstone revealed significant compositional changes over time. There were more metamorphic lithics and less feldspar in the Upper Jurassic sedimentary rocks, and fewer metamorphic lithics and more feldspar in the Lower Cretaceous sedimentary rocks. These changes in sandstone composition suggest that the source area of the basin changed. Detrital zircon U–Pb geochronology indicated that the sources of Early Cretaceous sediments were no longer from the Sulu orogenic belt but originated from the Liaodong Peninsula and the Korean Peninsula. The change in the sediment source direction from the Upper Jurassic to the Lower Cretaceous in the North Yellow Sea Basin is a good record of compressional orogenesis during the Late Jurassic and transitioning to strike‐slip and extensional processes in the Early Cretaceous.

ABSTRACTThis video introduces a medial‐to‐lateral neck dissection technique in the management of head and neck cancer, emphasizing the importance of the middle layer of the deep cervical fascia as a key surgical landmark. The technique involves systematic dissection from superficial lymphatic tissue (Paddle 1) to deeper structures (Paddles 2 and 3), offering better visualization and preservation of functionally important structures, such as the cervical nerves. This approach enhances surgical precision, minimizes nerve damage, and optimizes lymphatic tissue removal.
The Effects of MHD Slip Flow on Heat and Mass Transfer by Radiation, Chemical Reaction, and Suction/Injection Over a Shrinking Sheet in a Porous Medium Using the Keller Box Method
Authors: Prashanth M. , Srinivasa Rao V. 
Published: February 2025

ABSTRACTThe effect of suction/injection on magnetohydrodynamic (MHD) slip flow across a shrinking sheet in a porous medium is examined in this work, taking chemical reactions and thermal radiation into account. Understanding the effects of these variables on heat and mass transport, material characteristics in magnetic fields, and boundary conditions in a variety of technical and industrial processes including metallurgy, polymer processing, energy systems, and medicinal treatments is the major goal. The study investigates the combined effects of radiation, chemical processes, magnetic fields, and suction/injection on flow properties and boundary layer behavior using the Keller Box Method. To simplify the analysis, the controlling partial differential equations are transformed into nonlinear ordinary differential equations using similarity transformations. The results are intended to maximize system efficiency and performance in these various applications. Flow patterns and heat transfer rates are significantly impacted by slip flow, which happens when the fluid velocity at the boundary is greater than zero.

AbstractObjectiveSocial networks share medical content with no peer‐review or fact‐checking. In the present study we aimed to assess the quality, reliability, and level of misinformation in TikTok videos about polycystic ovary syndrome (PCOS).MethodsWe performed a cross‐sectional analysis of TikTok videos retrieved using “PCOS” as the search term and analyzed using patient education materials assessment tool for audio‐visual content (PEMAT A/V), modified DISCERN (mDISCERN), global quality scale (GQS), video information and quality index (VIQI) and misinformation assessment were employed.ResultsA total of 180 videos were included. Most videos were partially accurate (containing 25%–50% of false information) or uninformative (more than 50%) (56.7% and 6.6%, respectively) with a significantly higher proportion of inaccurate or uninformative videos from PCOS‐patients than healthcare professionals (14.4% vs. 0%; P < 0.001) as well as for partially accurate videos (78.4% vs. 37.5%; P < 0.001). PEMAT A/V scores for understandability and actionability were 50% (interquartile range [IQR]: 33%–58%) and 25% (IQR: 25%–50%), respectively with significantly higher understandability for healthcare professionals (54% [IQR: 42%–71%] vs. 33% [IQR: 25%–50%], P < 0.001). Median mDISCERN was 2 (IQR: 1–3) (low degree of reliability), with videos by healthcare professionals scoring significantly higher than those by patients (2 [IQR: 2–3] vs. 1 [IQR: 0–2]; P = 0.001).Intermediate‐low overall video quality was reported in VIQI with median score of 12 (IQR: 10–15) and significantly lower scores for patients (9 [IQR: 5–12] vs. 13 [IQR: 12–17]; P < 0.001). Similarly, median GQS score was overall intermediate for degree of usefulness (median 3 [IQR: 2–4]), but patient‐created videos were of significantly lower quality (median 2 [IQR: 2–3] vs. 4 [IQR: 3–4]; P < 0.001).ConclusionPCOS‐related videos on TikTok were mostly misinformative and of low quality and reliability. Healthcare professionals' videos were more informative with had higher quality compared to patient‐created content. Identifying and addressing low‐quality content is crucial for guiding future public health initiatives and improving the dissemination of trustworthy medical information on social networks.

IntroductionPenile fractures typically do not occur in patients unable to maintain an adequate erection. Erectile dysfunction is known as one of the major complications of radical prostatectomy, and no cases of postoperative penile fractures have been reported.Case presentationA 78‐year‐old male with a history of radical prostatectomy with bilateral nerve‐sparing for prostate cancer 12 years ago presented with a penile injury sustained during erection. Clinical examination showed subcutaneous hemorrhage and swelling throughout the penis, and magnetic resonance imaging showed discontinuity of the tunica albuginea. Emergent repair identified and corrected a laceration on the right lateral corpus cavernosum. He reported no complications and could maintain an erection after the surgery.ConclusionThis is the first reported case of penile fracture following radical prostatectomy, as well as the eldest case of penile fracture to date.

AbstractPhysical reservoir computing (PRC) offers an effective computing paradigm for spatiotemporal information processing with low training costs. Achieving controllable regulation over the temporal dynamics of devices to meet the computational demands of each physical layer is a key challenge for realizing high‐performance PRC chips. Here, we proposed a homogeneously integrated all‐PRC with tunable temporal dynamics. Utilizing the modulation effect of oxygen vacancies on the energy barrier of the pentacene/ZnO interface, short‐term memory, and long‐term memory switching characteristics have been achieved within the same device structure. Furthermore, by altering the gate voltage, the reservoir exhibited a broad range ratio of temporal characteristics (>102), which provides the potential to map information with different temporal characteristics. Inspired by the process of encoding and reconstructing spatiotemporal information in the human visual system, a biomimetic obstacle recognition system has been constructed to assist visually impaired individuals in walking, demonstrating excellent accuracy in obstacle types (100%) and distances (97.2%) recognition. This work offers a promising avenue for the development of an integrated PRC system with multi‐timescale information processing capability.image

ABSTRACTAn ecosystem's ability to interact with biotic and abiotic factors typically reveals its health and functionality. Twelve sites in Lagos Lagoon were sampled monthly over an entire year, covering the wet and dry seasons on the water parameters and phytoplankton composition to determine their seasonal link. A two‐way factorial ANOVA (p < 0.05) revealed significant seasonal differences in water temperature, pH, EC, turbidity, salinity, DO, phosphate, and zinc. A total of 40 phytoplankton species were recorded from the study area. Four major algal groups were in the order of: Bacillariophyta > Cyanophytoa > Dinophyta > Clorophyta concerning their quantitative abundance. Notable species were Aulacoseira sp., Coscinodiscus sp., Bacillaria sp., Biddulphia sp., Hemisdiscus sp., Chaetoceros sp., Ceratium sp., Thalassionema sp., Oscillatoria sp., and Microcystis sp. across the wet and dry seasons of the study. Turbidity, EC, salinity, DO, TDS, nitrate, and COD showed a strong affinity with the distribution of phytoplankton community as evident from canonical correspondence analysis. The Margalef and Shannon‐Wiener diversity indexes indicated moderately rich phytoplankton diversity in the lagoon ecosystem. The findings provide relevant information on the seasonal phytoplankton response to water parameters in Lagos Lagoon.
Tailoring Digital Content to Address Occupational Injustice: Improving Accessibility and Equity for Marginalized Groups
Authors: Eise Jessica , Thoene Ulf 
Published: February 2025

ABSTRACTCreating equity in access to digital content and tools in the face of global chronic stressors can improve inclusivity and reduce an exacerbation of marginalization. The socio‐political aspects of life are inherent in occupation and may reveal internal and external barriers that block meaningful digital engagement and inhibit a community's ability to thrive. In this article, the concept of occupational injustice is the lens through which we examine digital environments, content, and tools so that we may improve the marginalization and inequity experienced by certain groups. Based on 57 in‐depth interviews with coffee stakeholders in Colombia, this study is a qualitative assessment of how occupation influences digital use. Data are gathered through participants' use of a tailored climate change adaptation website, www.climaycafe.com, and the users' reported experience. The data reveal that occupation influences digital usage through (1) how a user engages based on an occupation's social status, (2) what a user values based on occupational demands, (3) what is perceived as reliable and trustworthy based on occupational influence, and (4) feature preferences based on occupational exposure to technology. The findings demonstrate that digital content and tools can be tailored to reduce occupational injustice through an audience‐centric focus that enhances accessibility, usability, and digital equity.

Published: February 2025

ABSTRACTAccurately predicting network traffic is crucial for dynamically deploying computing resources in network data centers and reducing carbon emissions. In this paper, a hybrid prediction model Convolutional Neural Networks‐Long Short‐Term and iTransformer (CNN‐LSTM‐iTransformer) based on CNN‐LSTM and iTransformer is proposed. CNN—LSTM is used to capture local features and long—term dependencies, while iTransformer is employed for feature relevance learning and prediction. In addition, the Huber Loss function is used to further improve the model prediction accuracy. In the experiment, the dataset was provided by Ant Financial Group, and the experimental results show that CNN—LSTM—iTransformer significantly reduces MAE to 0.112, MSE to 0.0212, MAPE to 0.123, and RWMAPE which represents prediction risk to 0.122, so the hybrid model CNN‐LSTM‐iTransformer achieves not only a higher prediction accuracy but also a lower prediction risk.
Bridging the gap: A critical review to empower pharmacists to address disparities in type 2 diabetes prevention and management among African American men
Authors: Kiles Tyler Marie , Litten Kathryn 
Published: February 2025

AbstractStructural disparities and sociocultural challenges exist that disadvantage African American men in preventing and managing diabetes. Targeted outreach and strategies to prevent or improve outcomes for African American men at risk for type 2 diabetes are a desperate need and a unique challenge. This critical review describes the complex nature of these disparities and presents strategies for clinical pharmacists to effectively engage with African American men to improve diabetes care. This review will provide background and suggest strategies to overcome structural challenges related to health care, as well as equip clinical pharmacists with communication tools and resources to address interpersonal differences to improve outcomes for African American men with diabetes. The recommendations herein include structural considerations, communication strategies, patient education best practices, and culturally tailored diet and exercise recommendations. African American men warrant consideration and targeted intervention for diabetes prevention and management, especially as the current pharmacy workforce is culturally discordant. More research is needed in this area to determine best practices; however, in order to meet the current needs of this population, the strategies described may prove beneficial in improving relationships and providing better clinical care for African American men with diabetes.

Published: February 2025

ABSTRACTLow‐level laser therapy (LLLT) is a non‐invasive treatment that uses low‐power lasers or light sources to stimulate biological responses. Previous studies focused on single‐wavelength effects on hair growth in mice. In this study, we investigated dual‐wavelength combinations to enhance hair regrowth. Using light‐emitting diodes (LEDs) at 670, 680, 780, and 880 nm, we assessed the correlation between different wavelength pairs and hair regrowth after shaving in mice. Phototherapy was conducted over 14 days, with results analyzed through surface image analysis and histological examination. Our findings indicate that dual‐wavelength therapy is superior to single‐wavelength treatment and significantly more effective than the untreated control, demonstrating its potential for improved hair regrowth.

AbstractPurposeThis study assessed the accuracy and early clinical outcomes of the VELYS™ Robotic‐Assisted solution for total knee arthroplasty (TKA).MethodsA multicenter, prospective non‐randomized 1:1 cohort study was conducted at five sites. Subjects underwent TKA with either manual instrumentation or with robotic‐assistance (RA). RA procedures were the first conducted at each site, therefore, representing the adoption phase for each surgeon. Mechanical alignment was targeted in the manual arm, while the target and technique varied in the RA arm. The primary objective was a non‐inferiority (NI) analysis of the accuracy of the hip–knee–ankle (HKA) for RA versus manual, with a 1.5° NI margin. The accuracy of the mechanical medial distal femoral angle (mMDFA), mechanical medial proximal tibial angle (mMPTA) tibial posterior slope (TPS) angles were measured. Adverse events (AEs) and patient‐reported outcome measures (PROMs) were collected at 12 weeks and 1 year.ResultsOne hundred participants were recruited for both manual and RA groups, the mean preoperative demographics and PROM scores were similar. The primary endpoint NI analysis was successful (p < 0.0001). The RA group demonstrated improved alignment accuracy of the femoral and tibial components compared to manual (mMDFA 1.3 vs. 1.9, p = 0.0026, mMPTA 1.2 vs. 1.5, p = 0.026, TPS 1.7 vs. 2.8, p < 0.0001). Serious AEs occurred in fewer RA subjects than in the manual (6 vs. 16, p = 0.040). Mean PROMs at 12 weeks and 1 year in the RA group compared to manual were either equivalent or improved (Forgotten Joint Score and pain at 12 weeks).ConclusionsThis study found that the RA system can be safely adopted without adversely impacting the long leg alignment or increasing the risk of complications. Further, it was observed that the accuracy of the femoral and tibial component positioning was improved, and there were positive trends in the rate of serious AEs and some PROMs at early follow‐up.Level of EvidenceLevel II.

ABSTRACTBackgroundPolypectomy‐associated bleeding is the most frequent complication of colorectal polypectomy.Case PresentationAn 82‐year‐old woman underwent polypectomy after an endoloop was placed in a pedunculated polyp in the sigmoid colon. However, the endoloop dislodged, causing massive bleeding from the stem surface. Furthermore, the bleeding vessel could not be identified because of the narrow resection surface and the presence of thrombus and hemorrhage. Therefore, several clips were removed, and polypectomy was performed again on the resection stem to open the resection surface wider and identify the bleeding vessels. Finally, the responsible arterial vessel appeared, leading to complete hemostasis.ConclusionThe additional stem resection may be a novel method for detecting uncontrolled bleeding after polypectomy for colorectal pedunculated polyps.

Published: February 2025

ABSTRACTAn important goal of the hepatitis E virus (HEV) vaccine is to prevent HEV in fragile, conflict‐affected, and vulnerable (FCV) settings with documented HEV circulation, but the routine hepatitis E vaccination schedule (0, 1, and 6 months) might not provide adequate protection for them in time. Therefore, in this study, we aimed to evaluate the immunogenicity and efficacy of a HEV vaccine (HEV 239 vaccine, Hecolin) using an accelerated vaccination schedule (vaccine doses at 0 and 7 days). Two doses of accelerated vaccination schedule (0 and 7 days) induced high titers of anti‐HEV protective antibodies in a short period of time in rabbits of the vaccine group, which could protect the rabbits from HEV infection compared with the infection group. Our results suggest that an accelerated vaccination schedule (0 and 7 days) could provide protective antibodies in a shorter time. The accelerated schedule should be further recommended for use as a backup in FCV settings or during a hepatitis E outbreak.

ABSTRACTThe miniaturized dual‐element triple broadband Multiple‐Input‐Multiple‐Output (MIMO) antenna is suggested. By creating a partial ground plane beneath the triple snake‐head‐shaped patch, three wide bandwidths are achieved. The investigated −10 dB impedance bandwidths are 10.2–18.4 GHz, 23.6–29.4 GHz, and 33.4–59.4 GHz, with the fractional bandwidth (FBW) 57.34%, 21.88%, and 56%, respectively. The isolation is improved by joining the microstrip line between the antennas in partial ground plane. The diversity performance of MIMO antenna is examined by the computational analysis of mean effective gain (MEG), diversity gain (DG), total active reflection coefficient (TARC), envelope correlation coefficient (ECC), ergodic channel capacity (CC), and channel capacity loss (CCL). Prototyping of the suggested design is carried out on FR‐4 dielectric substrate with electrical dimensions 0.524λ0 × 0.715λ0 mm2 (where λ0 is free space wavelength at center frequency of lowest operating band), dielectric constant 4.4, and loss tangent 0.02. The isolation, ECC, peak gain, average total efficiency, and average CC over the operating bands 10.2–18.4 GHz, 23.6–29.4 GHz, and 33.4–59.4 GHz are (−18.8 dB, 0.027, 4.50 dB, 50.81%, 9.46 bps/Hz), (21.4 dB, 0.057, 4.92 dB, 57.03%, 9.74 bps/Hz), and (−31.8 dB, 0.0082, 5.79 dB, 45.9%, 9.22 bps/Hz), respectively. The proposed design covers X (40%), Ku, K (37.7%), Ka (69.2%), and V (55.4%) frequency bands. A good agreement was found between the measurement and simulation.
