The Prevalence and Clinical Phenotypes of Cluster Headache in Relation with Latitude
Authors: Liaw Yi-Chia , Chen Shih-Pin , Wang Shuu-Jiun 
Published: March 2024

Abstract
Purpose of Review
Previous studies have indicated a possible link between the prevalence of cluster headache (CH) and sunlight exposure. However, this theory has yet to be tested systemically. In this article, we aim to examine how latitude affects the prevalence and phenotypes of CH.

Recent Findings
To our knowledge, there is by far no article describing the effect of latitude on disease phenotype; thus, we performed a literature review. We noted positive effects of latitude on 1-year prevalence, the proportion of chronic CH, and the proportion of miosis and/or ptosis.

Summary
Latitude may affect the phenotypic presentations of cluster headache, probably partially mediated via temperature and sunlight variations. Still, other factors, such as environmental exposure to smoking and the genetic difference between the Eastern and Western populations, may participate in the pathogenesis and clinical manifestations of CH.

AbstractAs a consequence of globalisation, a large number of studies have been carried out on the attitudes and preferences of acculturation of immigrants and host societies, with the aim of observing the different changes that occur in this intercultural contact. These studies have been carried out in places with a large migratory flow; however, it was considered convenient to carry out the same type of studies in regions with less migratory flow, which is why this investigation focuses on a place with a lower migratory flow, such as the Principality of Asturias. Thus, the main objective of this work is to observe whether gender contributes to the creation of different attitudes and whether this is moderating the intensity with which stereotypes participate in the formation of the acculturation preferences of native students in compulsory secondary education. The analysis of acculturation attitudes was carried out on the dimensions of “adopting” and “maintaining” separately, in order to study how these dimensions are affected by each of the variables (gender/stereotype) in different domains. The exploratory results obtained through quantitative analysis reveal that stereotypes affect the dimensions differently in each of the domains. It is also found that gender affects both dimensions, and finally, it is claimed that gender can moderate the intensity with which stereotypes are involved in the creation of acculturation attitudes in almost all domains. These results are discussed in comparison with those found in other studies with different social and cultural groups.
Gendered Constructions of Luck at Work: The Case of Career Narratives of Female and Male Managers
Authors: Poorhosseinzadeh Mahan , Özbilgin Mustafa F. , Strachan Glenda 
Published: March 2024

AbstractThere is a ubiquitous assumption that luck is a gender-neutral and equally distributed phenomenon. Drawing on 50 interviews with female and male managers, we examine their constructions of luck at work and demonstrate the gendered construction of luck in career narratives. Despite the dearth of attention to luck in the career literature, luck often features in the career narratives of professional workers. In line with the literature, we define the construct of luck as something outside the locus of control of individuals. Yet, we identify that luck is a gendered construct in career narratives. We demonstrate that while female managers define luck as receiving equality of opportunity in the process of their careers, male managers define luck as structures of support that offer them opportunities above and beyond their merit at work, which is a privilege that men appear to enjoy. The perception and interpretation of luck have far-reaching effects on addressing and comprehending gender disparities in career advancement, decision-making, negotiation and organisational leadership. Recognising the gender-specific impact of luck is vital in promoting gender equality and offering equitable chances for the career progression of women and non-privileged employees. It offers a persuasive option to challenge the dominant meritocratic assumptions on equality of chances, structures and the distribution of resources.
A New Lotus-Leaf-Inspired Beaded Nanofiber Strategy for the Development of Cryogel/Nanofiber Hybrid Structures
Authors: Kanmaz Dilayda , Osman Bilgen , Karaca Esra 
Published: March 2024

AbstractIn this study, a cryogel/nanofiber hybrid material was developed using a new lotus-leaf-inspired strategy. The lotus effect was generated via beaded poly(ε-caprolactone) (PCL) nanofibers produced from the 9 wt% PCL solution with low viscosity and high surface tension via electrospinning. A poly(hydroxyethyl methacrylate) (PHEMA) cryogel layer was constructed through polymerization onto the beaded PCL nanofibrous mat. The thickness of the PHEMA cryogel/beaded PCL nanofiber hybrid material was 3.19 ± 0.07 mm. Morphological characterization studies of the hybrid material were conducted by scanning electron microscopy (SEM). The mean diameter of the beaded PCL nanofibers was 97.22 ± 21.18 nm. The lotus effect created by the beaded PCL nanofibers was investigated by water contact angle (WCA) measurements. The WCA of beadless and beaded PCL nanofibers was 93.42° ± 1.4° and 117.97° ± 5.04°, respectively. The PHEMA cryogel layer was chemically characterized via Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy (FTIR) analysis and the specific groups belonging to 2-hydroxyethyl methacrylate (HEMA) was observed. The porosity of the PHEMA cryogel layer was determined via mercury porosimetry. The total porosity of the PHEMA cryogel was 64.42%, and the pore sizes were in the range of 5–200 µm. Swelling kinetics of the PHEMA cryogel/beaded PCL nanofiber hybrid material were also investigated and compared to those of PHEMA cryogel and beaded PCL nanofibers. The maximum swelling ratio of the hybrid material was 509.69% and reached after 180 min. The developed PHEMA cryogel/beaded PCL nanofiber hybrid material met the criteria required for layered structures and biomedical applications whereby its eligible stability, morphology, porosity, and swelling capacity. Consequently, the lotus-leaf-inspired strategy was successful in constructing the cryogel/nanofiber hybrid materials.
Internal Model-Based Robust Path-Following Control for Autonomous Vehicles
Authors: Kovács Adorján , Vajk István 
Published: March 2024

AbstractThe paper presents a new internal model control (IMC) based control technique for lateral trajectory tracking of autonomous vehicles. The controller’s proposed structure employs a robust, fault-tolerant nonlinear internal servo control with optimal reference generation concerning vehicle yaw stability and physical limitations. The presented inscription of the reference generation creates a convex optimization task that can be used in real-time applications. Improvements in yaw-rate stability of vehicle motion control are first shown through simulation results performed in a Simulink environment. The controller structure was also implemented in a real-time model and was examined in a Mercedes C-Class vehicle. In this article, the simulation results and the real-time measurements are presented. The results show that the proposed controller has high efficiency in disturbance rejection and lower sensitivity towards parameter changes compared to a model predictive control (MPC) structure.
Disentangling Cerebellar and Parietal Contributions to Gait and Body Schema: A Repetitive Transcranial Magnetic Stimulation Study
Authors: Bertuccelli Margherita , Bisiacchi Patrizia , Del Felice Alessandra 
Published: March 2024

AbstractThe overlap between motor and cognitive signs resulting from posterior parietal cortex (PPC) and cerebellar lesions can mask their relative contribution in the sensorimotor integration process. This study aimed to identify distinguishing motor and cognitive features to disentangle PPC and cerebellar involvement in two sensorimotor-related functions: gait and body schema representation. Thirty healthy volunteers were enrolled and randomly assigned to PPC or cerebellar stimulation. Sham stimulation and 1 Hz-repetitive-Transcranial-Magnetic-Stimulation were delivered over P3 or cerebellum before a balance and a walking distance estimation task. Each trial was repeated with eyes open (EO) and closed (EC). Eight inertial measurement units recorded spatiotemporal and kinematic variables of gait. Instability increased in both groups after real stimulation: PPC inhibition resulted in increased instability in EC conditions, as evidenced by increased ellipse area and range of movement in medio-lateral and anterior–posterior (ROMap) directions. Cerebellar inhibition affected both EC (increased ROMap) and EO stability (greater displacement of the center of mass). Inhibitory stimulation (EC vs. EO) affected also gait spatiotemporal variability, with a high variability of ankle and knee angles plus different patterns in the two groups (cerebellar vs parietal). Lastly, PPC group overestimates distances after real stimulation (EC condition) compared to the cerebellar group. Stability, gait variability, and distance estimation parameters may be useful clinical parameters to disentangle cerebellar and PPC sensorimotor integration deficits. Clinical differential diagnosis efficiency can benefit from this methodological approach.
UV photo-sensing performance of NiSnO3 thin films deposited by pulsed spray pyrolysis technique
Authors: El Desouky Fawzy G. , Moussa I. , Obaida M. 
Published: March 2024

AbstractPure nanostructured thin films of nickel stannite (NiSnO3; NSO) semiconducting oxide are synthesized by a simple pulsed spray pyrolysis technique on glass substrates at different deposition temperatures and spray times. XRD recorded patterns exhibit a polycrystalline nature for the deposited films. The Raman spectra provide confirmation of the presence of Sn–O and Ni–O bands. FESEM demonstrates a membrane-like structure with hexagonal pores’ formation and different diameter sizes. The NSO energy bandgap is calculated to be 3.72 eV using the absorption spectrum fitting method. The photoluminescence intensities of NSO films were found to fluctuate with the influence of deposited substrate temperature and spray time. The photo-sensing performance was examined by calculating the change in the resistance of the deposited films corresponding to the UV light exposure at room temperature. NSO samples prepared at high substrate temperatures, and long spray times perform the best dynamic photo-response for the UV illumination.

A novel Swin transformer approach utilizing residual multi-layer perceptron for diagnosing brain tumors in MRI images
Authors: Pacal Ishak 
Published: March 2024

AbstractSerious consequences due to brain tumors necessitate a timely and accurate diagnosis. However, obstacles such as suboptimal imaging quality, issues with data integrity, varying tumor types and stages, and potential errors in interpretation hinder the achievement of precise and prompt diagnoses. The rapid identification of brain tumors plays a pivotal role in ensuring patient safety. Deep learning-based systems hold promise in aiding radiologists to make diagnoses swiftly and accurately. In this study, we present an advanced deep learning approach based on the Swin Transformer. The proposed method introduces a novel Hybrid Shifted Windows Multi-Head Self-Attention module (HSW-MSA) along with a rescaled model. This enhancement aims to improve classification accuracy, reduce memory usage, and simplify training complexity. The Residual-based MLP (ResMLP) replaces the traditional MLP in the Swin Transformer, thereby improving accuracy, training speed, and parameter efficiency. We evaluate the Proposed-Swin model on a publicly available brain MRI dataset with four classes, using only test data. Model performance is enhanced through the application of transfer learning and data augmentation techniques for efficient and robust training. The Proposed-Swin model achieves a remarkable accuracy of 99.92%, surpassing previous research and deep learning models. This underscores the effectiveness of the Swin Transformer with HSW-MSA and ResMLP improvements in brain tumor diagnosis. This method introduces an innovative diagnostic approach using HSW-MSA and ResMLP in the Swin Transformer, offering potential support to radiologists in timely and accurate brain tumor diagnosis, ultimately improving patient outcomes and reducing risks.
Aftereffects, High-Levelism and Gestalt Properties
Authors: Başoğlu Yavuz Recep 
Published: March 2024

AbstractAccording to high-levelism, one can perceptually be aware of high-level properties such as natural kind properties. Against high-levelism, the Gestalt proposal suggests that instead of high-level properties, one can have a perceptual experience as of Gestalt properties, i.e., determinables of determinate low-level properties. When one looks at a bird, the high-levelist argues that one can perceive the property of being a bird, and the proponent of the Gestalt proposal argues that one first perceives the property of having the bird Gestalt (shared by all and only birds) and only post-perceptually recognizes that it is a bird. In the present study, to resolve the dispute between high-levelism and the Gestalt proposal, I aim to test their abilities to explain the attribution of multiple perceptible properties to the same object by making use of various empirical studies on high-level aftereffects. I conclude that the Gestalt proposal fails the test and hence shall not be a viable alternative to high-levelism.
The practice of historical ecology: What, when, where, how and what for
Authors: Santana-Cordero Aarón Moisés , Szabó Péter , Bürgi Matthias , Armstrong Chelsey Geralda 
Published: March 2024

AbstractIn recent decades, there has been a growing number of studies exploring the historical dimensions of the interconnectedness of human societies and the environment. A core approach in this field is historical ecology. We analyzed 544 historical-ecological papers to assess patterns and trends in the field. We found a high degree of interdisciplinarity with a focus on local case studies, of periods of fewer than 500 years, analyzing archival sources through quantitative approaches. The proportion of papers containing management recommendations has increased over time. To make historical ecology globally relevant, more effort should be made to utilize studies across languages, borders and worldviews. We call for high standards regarding the use of social scientific methodologies. Lastly, we argue that fostering longer-term studies and assessing the real-life impact of policy recommendations emerging from historical ecology can help the discipline better contribute solutions to the challenges facing humanity in an uncertain future.
Acceleration-Based Switching Surfaces for Impulsive Trajectory Design Between Cislunar Libration Point Orbits
Authors: Saloglu Keziban , Taheri Ehsan 
Published: March 2024

AbstractA method is proposed to generate an initial guess for impulsive trajectory design in the circular restricted three-body problem. The method uses acceleration-based switching surfaces to obtain near-impulsive solutions. A numerical continuation is performed on the maximum acceleration value to find near-impulsive solutions. A nonlinear programming problem is formulated by providing primer vector based analytical gradients. The solution space is narrowed down to aid the optimizer with the use of the near-impulsive solutions. The proposed method is used for the trajectory design of four different maneuvers between L1 and L2 Halo orbits in the Earth–Moon system. The results demonstrate the utility of the proposed method in generating extremal impulsive trajectories.

Abstract
To meet the demands of laser-ion acceleration at a high repetition rate, we have developed a comprehensive diagnostic system for real-time and in situ monitoring of liquid sheet targets (LSTs). The spatially resolved rapid characterizations of an LST’s thickness, flatness, tilt angle and position are fulfilled by different subsystems with high accuracy. With the help of the diagnostic system, we reveal the dependence of thickness distribution on collision parameters and report the 238-nm liquid sheet generated by the collision of two liquid jets. Control methods for the flatness and tilt angle of LSTs have also been provided, which are essential for applications of laser-driven ion acceleration and others.

Published: March 2024

AbstractTwo species of deep-sea skates,Amblyraja frerichsiandNotoraja martinezi, are reported for the first time in Peruvian waters, representing the first record of their respective genera from the country. Earlier,A.frerichsiwas known from both the southwestern Atlantic (off Brazil, Uruguay, and Argentina) and southeastern Pacific (off Chile), whileN.martineziwas known from Costa Rica to Ecuador in the eastern-central and southeastern Pacific. This study contributes to the limited knowledge of deep-sea fish diversity along the South American west coast, and stresses the need of further taxonomic research in the region, particularly in light of the ecological importance of this group of fishes in marine ecosystems and its conservation state worldwide.

Published: March 2024

Abstract
This research sought to assess whether and how patient preference (PP) data are currently used within health technology assessment (HTA) bodies and affiliated organizations involved in technology/drug appraisals and assessments. An exploratory survey was developed by the PP Project Subcommittee of the HTA International Patient and Citizen Involvement Interest Group to gain insight into the use, impact, and role of PP data in HTA, as well as the perceived barriers to its incorporation. Forty members of HTA bodies and affiliated organizations from twelve countries completed the online survey. PP data were reported to be formally considered as part of the HTA evidence review process by 82.5 percent of the respondents, while 39.4 percent reported that most of the appraisals and assessments within their organization in the past year had submitted PP data. The leading reason for why PP data were not submitted in most assessments was time/resource constraints followed by lack of clarity on PP data impact. Participants reported that PP data had a moderate level of influence on the deliberative process and outcome of the decision, but a higher level of influence on the decision’s quality. Most (81.8 percent) felt patient advocacy groups should be primarily responsible for generating and submitting this type of evidence. Insights from the survey confirm the use of PP data in HTA but reveal barriers to its broader and more meaningful integration. Encouragingly, participants believe obstacles can be overcome, paving the way for a second phase of research involving in-depth collaborative workshops with HTA representatives.
Trait anxiety predicting the developmental trajectories of depression symptoms in children: The mediating role of attentional control
Authors: Zhang Qiaochu 
Published: March 2024

Abstract
Trait anxiety and attentional control are important factors related to depression symptoms. The study investigated how trait anxiety and attentional control predicted the trajectories of depression symptoms during the transition into early adolescence. The mediating effect of attentional control on the relationship of trait anxiety to the trajectories of depression symptoms was also examined. Children of 9 to 10 years were recruited at Time 1. Trait anxiety, attentional control, and depression symptoms were assessed at Time 1. Depression symptoms were measured at three follow-up assessments across 18 months. Latent class growth modeling revealed high (14.4%) and low (85.6%) trajectories of depression symptoms. Higher trait anxiety and lower attentional control predicted a higher likelihood of showing the trajectory of high depressive symptoms. Attentional control mediated the relationship of trait anxiety to the trajectory membership of depression symptoms. The findings had important implications for the association of trait anxiety with the trajectory membership of depression symptoms and highlighted the importance of attentional control in the development of depression symptoms for children with high trait anxiety.
Accounting for Carbon Pricing in Third Countries Under the EU Carbon Border Adjustment Mechanism
Authors: Boute Anatole 
Published: March 2024

AbstractTo avoid penalizing exporters that already paid carbon prices, the EU Carbon Border Adjustment Mechanism credits carbon taxes and Emissions Trading Schemes in third countries. By excluding instruments of traditional regulation (e.g. emission standards) and indirect carbon prices (e.g. fuel excise taxes) from this crediting mechanism, the EU is criticized for discriminating against countries that do not follow its climate model, in breach of international trade and climate law. This article seeks to nuance this criticism by arguing that the calculation of actual emissions (instead of default values) under the EU CBAM allows exporters to reflect compliance with foreign emission standards, and thus respects states' right to pursue emission reductions through traditional regulation. However, amendments of the CBAM Regulation are necessary to recognize the positive and negative impact of indirect carbon prices on decarbonization, and the role of carbon-crediting mechanisms in equalizing carbon costs in a more flexible and equitable way.
