Published: March 2024

Introduction
Although extracorporeal membrane oxygenation (ECMO) is a well-established treatment for supporting severe cardiopulmonary failure, the morbidity and mortality of patients requiring ECMO support remain high. Evaluating and correcting potential risk factors associated with any ECMO-related complications may improve care and decrease mortality. This study aimed to assess the predictors of ECMO-related vascular and cerebrovascular complications among adult patients and to test the hypothesis that ECMO-related complications are associated with higher in-hospital mortality rates.

Methods
This single-center, retrospective study included 856 ECMO runs administered via cannulation of the femoral vessels of 769 patients: venoarterial (VA) ECMO (n = 709, 82.8%) and venovenous (VV) ECMO (n = 147, 17.2%). The study outcomes included the occurrence of ECMO-related vascular and cerebrovascular complications and in-hospital death. The association of ECMO-related complications with the risk of in-hospital death was analyzed.

Results
The incidences of ECMO-related vascular and cerebrovascular complications were 20.2% and 13.6%, respectively. The overall in-hospital mortality rate was 48.7%: 52.8% among VA ECMO runs and 29.3% among VV ECMO runs. Multivariable analysis indicated that age (P < 0.01), cardiopulmonary cerebral resuscitation (P < 0.01), continuous renal replacement therapy (P < 0.01), and initial platelet count [<50×103/μL (P = 0.02) and 50–100(×103)/μL (P < 0.01)] were associated with an increased risk of in-hospital death. ECMO-related vascular and cerebrovascular complications were not independently associated with higher in-hospital mortality rates for VA or VV ECMO runs.

Conclusion
ECMO-related vascular and cerebrovascular complications were not associated with an increased risk of in-hospital death among adult patients.
The Dialectical Syllogism in Aristotle’s Topics
Authors: Martins Mendonça Fernando 
Published: March 2024

The purpose of this paper is an attempt to delimitate what the dialectical syllogism looks like in Aristotle’s Topics. Aristotle never gave an example of a dialectical syllogism, but we have some clues spread over books I and VIII of the Topics which make it possible to understand at least what within a dialectical debate is a dialectical syllogism. The interpretation advanced here distinguishes the logical order of the dialectical argumentation from the order of the debate. This distinction enables us to have a better understand of what is and how the dialectical syllogism is identified in the debate. In addition, we can solve some interpretative difficulties other interpretations could not solve, and have a more solid grasp of how endoxa are used in a dialectical debate.

Published: March 2024

This work aimed at determining the growth patterns and condition factors of three sea cucumber species, namely Holothuria atra, Bohadschia marmomata, and B. vitiensis in seagrass beds of Mare and Moti Islands. Samples were collected in March 2023 using a roaming survey method in a block area with an area of 5000 m2. As amount of 54 sea cucumbers were analysed from Mare Island and 58 individuals from Moti Island. The results of this study indicate that the correlation (r) length-weight relationship for the three sea cucumber species is stronger (r > 0.6) on Moti Island than Mare Island. H. atra and B. marmorata have a negative allometric growth pattern, while B. vitiensis has a positive allometric growth pattern on both islands. The Fulton condition factors for the sea cucumbers assessed on Mare Island were recorded for H. atra of 2.84 ± 2.01, B. marmorata of 3.13 ± 2.47 and B. vitiensis of 9.24 ± 5.73. Meanwhile, at Moti Island were found for H. atra of 12.49 ± 11.66, B. marmorata of 9.58 ± 7.38, and B. vitiensis of 8.87 ± 3.68. This is indicated that all sea cucumber species are in good physical condition. Meanwhile, the relative weight condition factor (Wr) of the three species of sea cucumbers on both islands were in the range above 100, which indicated a food surplus in their habitat. The results of this research can be important as the preliminary data in terms of sustainable management of sea cucumber stocks in North Maluku.
Kommunal geschützt? – Trägerschaftsmodelle schwedischer Öffentlicher Bibliotheken auf dem Prüfstand. Einblicke in eine Debatte
Authors: Wischmann Antje 
Published: March 2024

Zusammenfassung
Dieser Beitrag skizziert Überlegungen zu einer bibliothekspolitischen Frage, die bisher noch schwer zu überblicken ist und die nur aus einer interdisziplinären Perspektive beleuchtet werden kann: Wie beeinflusst die Privatisierung Öffentlicher Bibliotheken die Auffassung des Bibliotheksortes? Inwieweit dürfen sich die Mitarbeitenden weiterhin auf die kommunale Koordination mit den neuartigen Vertragspartnern verlassen? Bleibt die pluralistische Arena zur Bildung einer kritischen Öffentlichkeit erhalten?
Schwedische Öffentliche Bibliotheken gelten als eine der letzten Bastionen des ehemaligen sozialdemokratischen Wohlfahrtsstaates. Ihre deliberativen Arbeitsweisen, ihre Abstimmung auf den kommunalen und regionalen Rahmen in den Bibliotheksplänen und ihre Profilierung durch das demokratiefördernd intendierte nationale Bibliotheksgesetz sind inspirierend auch für die deutschsprachige Bibliothekslandschaft oder für verwandte Einrichtungen. In der Diskussion um alternative Trägerschaften steht aus der Perspektive des Personals offenbar viel auf dem Spiel. Die ausgewerteten Stellungnahmen von schwedischen Bibliothekar:innen aus dem letzten Jahrzehnt geben Einblicke in die Selbstvergewisserung einer anti-neoliberalen Wertegemeinschaft, die einerseits für den Erhalt humanistischer Kultur- und Bildungseinrichtungen kämpft, andererseits die Notwendigkeit erkennt – angesichts der Einsparungen und des zunehmenden Einflusses rechtspopulistischer und liberal-konservativer Kräfte –, neuartige Trägerschaften und Betreibermodelle zu erproben.
Analysis and Numerical Simulation of Time-Fractional Derivative Contact Problem with Friction in Thermo-Viscoelasticity
Authors: Bouallala Mustapha , Essoufi EL-Hassan , Ouafik Youssef 
Published: March 2024

Abstract
The objective of this study is to analyze a quasistatic frictional contact problem involving the interaction between a thermo-viscoelastic body and a thermally conductive foundation. The constitutive relation in our investigation is constructed using a fractional Kelvin–Voigt model to describe displacement behavior. Additionally, the heat conduction aspect is governed by a time-fractional derivative parameter that is associated with temperature. The contact is modeled using the Signorini condition, which is a version of Coulomb’s law for dry friction. We develop a variational formulation for the problem and establish the existence of its weak solution using a combination of techniques, including the theory of monotone operators, Caputo derivative, Galerkin method, and the Banach fixed point theorem. To demonstrate the effectiveness of our approach, we include several numerical simulations that showcase the performance of the method.

Published: March 2024

Abstract
Integrating big data analytics and machine learning algorithms has become increasingly important in the fast-changing landscape of stock market investment. The numerical findings showcase the tangible impact of our methodology on the accuracy and efficiency of stock market trend predictions. Identifying and selecting the most salient features (technical indicators) is critical in predicting the trend direction of exchange-traded funds (ETFs) in emerging markets, leveraging financial and economic indicators. Our methodology encompasses an array of statistical techniques strategically employed to identify critical technical indicators with significant implications for time series problems. We improve the efficacy of our model by performing systematic evaluations of statistical and machine learning methods across multiple sets of features or technical indicators, resulting in a more accurate trend prediction mechanism. Notably, our approach not only achieves a substantial reduction in the computational cost of the proposed neural network model by selecting only 5% of the total technical indicators for predicting ETF trends but also enhances the accuracy rate by approximately 2%.
On the Iwasawa main conjecture for generalized Heegner classes in a quaternionic setting
Authors: Pati Maria Rosaria 
Published: March 2024

AbstractWe prove one divisibility relation of the anticyclotomic Iwasawa Main Conjecture for a higher weight ordinary modular formfand an imaginary quadratic field satisfying a “relaxed” Heegner hypothesis. Let Λ be the anticyclotomic Iwasawa algebra. Following the approach of Howard and Longo–Vigni, we construct the Λ-adic Kolyvagin system of generalized Heegner classes coming from Heegner points on a suitable Shimura curve. As its application, we also prove one divisibility relation in the Iwasawa–Greenberg main conjecture for thep-adicL-function defined by Magrone.

The establishment of conscientious monopolies in rural communities
Authors: Bohler Forrest , Garden Allison 
Published: March 2024

Abstract
In the United States, healthcare providers have the federally protected right to conscientiously refuse to provide treatments or services that they feel violate their moral or religious values. This refusal of services is colloquially known as “conscientious objection,” which has become a polarizing topic in today’s medical and ethical landscape. Typically, physicians exercising their right to conscientious objection do not represent a barrier in access to care for most patient populations. This dynamic shifts, however, in rural America, where there are relatively few providers. In this commentary, we discuss some of the unique ramifications that are likely to occur when rural providers invoke conscientious objection in their medical practice and how this can in turn establish conscientious monopolies for the members of their communities.
Liking the Intrusion Analysis in In Re Facebook

Published: March 2024

Abstract

In re Facebook preserved a class action brought against Facebook based on its mass collection of web browsing data. Although the plaintiffs brought several common law and statutory causes of action, I will focus on the court’s analysis of intrusion upon seclusion. This is where the case makes its greatest contribution to 21st century jurisprudence. It clears up several puzzles that had troubled the tort (and indeed my own thinking) to the great benefit of tort theory and the progress of privacy law.
From Crisis to Control: Amidst and Postpandemic Data Protection Concerns in Singapore and Vietnam through the Lens of Techno-Solutionism and Efficient Violation of Privacy Rights
Authors: Ngo Nguyen Thao Vy 
Published: March 2024

Abstract
The success of Singapore with swift digital contact-tracing strategies inspired Vietnam to adopt similar measures, which both have raised concerns about balancing public health goals with personal data privacy. These approaches suggest a trend toward increased surveillance, citizen involvement in pandemic response, and enhanced government digitalization in everyday life postpandemic. This article examines the approaches of Singapore and Vietnam to data governance in the public sector during the COVID-19 pandemic, using the theories of techno-solutionism and the efficiency breach to assess how each country perceived and handled privacy rights during the crisis. The findings show that despite differing data governance approaches, both nations face similar challenges in balancing public interests and personal rights. This balance is particularly crucial in their pursuit of Pareto optimality in data protection laws against techno-solutionism, a key consideration in the development of smart cities or nations in the postpandemic era.

Wegner estimate and localisation for alloy-type operators with minimal support assumptions on the single site potential
Authors: Täufer Matthias , Veselić Ivan 
Published: March 2024

Abstract
We prove a Wegner estimate for alloy-type models
merely assuming that the single site potential is lower bounded by a characteristic function of a thick set
(a particular class of sets of positive measure).
The proof exploits on one hand recently proven unique continuation principles or uncertainty relations for linear combinations of eigenfunctions of the Laplacian on cubes and on the other hand the well developed machinery for proving Wegner estimates.
We obtain a Wegner estimate with optimal volume dependence at all energies, and localization near the minimum of the spectrum, even for some non-stationary random potentials.
We complement the result by showing that a lower bound on the potential by the characteristic function of
a thick set is necessary for a Wegner estimate to hold.
Hence, we have identified a sharp condition on the size for the support of random potentials that
is sufficient and necessary for the validity of Wegner estimates.
Fictional characterization through repair, membership categorization, and attribute ascription
Authors: Okazawa Ryo 
Published: March 2024

Abstract
Linguistics and discourse studies have recently started treating fictional interactions as data worth analyzing in their own right, rather than incomplete representations of naturally occurring conversations. Aligning with advances in research on the use of language in fiction, this study addresses the functions of characters’ conversational practices in fictional works from an interactional perspective. By applying conversation analysis and membership categorization analysis to a sitcom series, this study explores how characters’ repair operation, membership categorization, and attribute ascription contribute to the construction and revelation of those characters (i.e., fictional characterization). Three patterns are illustrated: (1) a character engages in implicit categorization to account for trouble after operating repair; (2) a character’s changes of turn design in multiple repair operations show the character’s orientation toward an attribute of the other character; and (3) a character gives up repair operation and shows an orientation toward other characters’ attributes through implying negative assessment of them. The findings suggest that conversation analysis and membership categorization analysis are beneficial for research on fictional characterization. This study also discusses the reflexive and mutually constitutive relationship between the interactional participants’ characters and their conversational practices.

Abstract
The electrospinning process allows the production of nanofibers from polymer solutions, making them suitable for various applications such as sensors, electronic devices, conductive materials, and advanced composites for high-temperature environments. In this research, polyaniline (PANI) was doped with camphor sulfonic camphor sulfonic acid (HCSA). HCSA dopant is used to modify the electrical and structural properties of polyaniline. To introduce reduced graphene oxide as a nanofiller to enhance the electrical properties of the polymer. Both the HCSA-doped PANI and HCSA-doped PANI with rGO nanofibers were electro-spun separately to create individual nanofibers. Fourier-transform infrared spectroscopy was used to investigate the chemical composition and functional groups present in the nanofibers. Field emission scanning electron microscopy was employed to study the nanofibers’ morphology, structure, and surface characteristics. Thermogravimetric analysis was used to assess the thermal stability of the nanofibers and to approximate the content of rGO. These results indicate that the addition of reduced graphene oxide (rGO) led to improvements in the nanofibers’ electrical conductivity and thermal stability.
The Influence of Lighting on The Bedroom Towards The Sleep Quality of Children Aged 0-5 Years
Authors: Uding Risnawati , Fianti Fianti , Yulianti Ian 
Published: March 2024

Lighting in the bedroom is important in maintaining the quality of children's sleep. At the age of 0-5 years, a child has a sleep duration of around 11-18 hours, so it is necessary to pay attention to the lighting in the bedroom so that children have quality sleep time. This study aims to determine the effect of lighting in the bedroom on the sleep quality of children aged 0-5 years. Samples were taken randomly with the age range of children 0-5 years with the criteria of children accustomed to sleeping with the lights off as many as 6 samples. The number of samples was adjusted to the availability of samples around the research site in Tinjomoyo village. Data collection techniques were observation and questionnaires. The parents of the sample filled out the observation sheets and questionnaires. The duration of data collection depends on how many times each sample wakes up during sleep at night, starting when the child falls asleep until 03.00 AM. The results showed that there was an effect of bedroom lighting on the sleep quality of children aged 0-5 years as indicated by a change in the child's total awakening, which is an average of 2 fewer awakenings during sleep from the lights on to the lights off.

Published: March 2024

Forecasting irregularly sampled time series with missing values is a crucial task for numerous real-world applications such as healthcare, astronomy, and climate sciences.	State-of-the-art approaches to this problem rely on Ordinary Differential Equations (ODEs)	which are known to be slow and often require additional features to handle missing values. To address this issue, we propose a novel model using Graphs for Forecasting Irregularly Sampled Time Series with missing values which we call GraFITi.	GraFITi first converts the time series to a Sparsity Structure Graph which is a sparse bipartite graph,	and then reformulates the forecasting problem as the edge weight prediction task in the graph.	It uses the power of Graph Neural Networks to learn the graph and predict the target edge weights. GraFITi has been tested on 3 real-world and 1 synthetic irregularly sampled time series dataset with missing values and compared with various state-of-the-art models. The experimental results demonstrate that GraFITi improves the forecasting accuracy by up to 17% and reduces the run time up to 5 times compared to the state-of-the-art forecasting models.
