Published: February 2024

Zusammenfassung
Agentensysteme werden seit vielen Jahrzehnten eingesetzt, um Aufgaben wie die Zuordnungs- und Reihenfolgeplanung in komplexen industriellen Systemen zu übernehmen. Das am häufigsten verwendete Koordinationsverfahren dabei ist das Contract Net Protokoll, ein einfaches, aber leistungsstarkes Auktionsprotokoll, auf welchem auch die Protokolle der I4.0-Sprache basieren. Die Zuordnung von Transportprozessen zu autonomen Transporteinheiten, welche in der Flugzeugmontage zunehmend an Bedeutung gewinnen, ist ein wichtiger Aspekt der Steuerung industrieller Systeme. Er erfordert flexible und zuverlässige Ansätze, einschließlich zuverlässiger Kommunikation und Ausführung von Prozessen, für die bestehende Agenten-Frameworks nicht ausreichen. Dieser Beitrag beschreibt aktuelle Bestrebungen, ein ROS2-basiertes Agenten-Framework zu entwickeln, und schlägt auf Basis einer kurzen taxonomischen Einordnung kooperativer Transporte einen Ansatz zur Fähigkeitsmodellierung sowie ein geeignetes Verhandlungsprotokoll für kooperative Transportprozesse vor. Außerdem wird eine Implementierung vorgestellt, die es ermöglicht, agentenbasierte Verhandlungen in einem reinen ROS2-Framework zu realisieren.
CILS4NEPS – Unlocking Research Potential Through More Participants, More Schools and International Comparison: Harmonized Data for Research on Education, School-to-work Transition and Integration Processes for Adolescents in Germany, the Netherlands, Sweden and England
Authors: Dollmann Jörg , Arnold Lena , Horr Andreas 
Published: February 2024

Abstract
The CILS4NEPS project combined and harmonized panel data from the Children of Immigrants Longitudinal Survey in Four European Countries (CILS4EU) and Starting Cohort 4 of the German National Educational Panel Study (NEPS SC4). This unlocks additional research potential beyond the scope of both individual datasets by increasing sample sizes and enabling international comparisons of the NEPS data. Both, the combined dataset as well as additional material to reproduce and expand the harmonization are available to users. In this article, we will first introduce the individual datasets and their comparability and describe the steps of the harmonization process. Furthermore, we will present the comparable content between both surveys, the structure of the harmonized dataset, and weighting issues. Subsequently, we provide descriptive statistics, the analytical potential, and information on data access. Lastly, we will finish with an outlook on the continuing harmonization of CILS4EU and NEPS SC4.

Published: February 2024

Abstract

Objectives
This prospective multicenter study aimed (1) to examine changes in parent-reported health-related quality of life (HRQOL) of children with short stature and the effects of the children’s condition on parents themselves within the first year of human growth hormone (hGH) treatment and (2) to predict effects on parents based on main and interaction effects of children’s HRQOL and increase in height.

Methods
A total of 110 parents of children aged 4–18 years, diagnosed with idiopathic growth hormone deficiency, small for gestational age, or idiopathic short stature, were recruited from 11 participating German pediatric endocrinologists and asked to fill out the short stature-specific Quality of Life in Short Stature Youth (QoLISSY) Questionnaire before hGH treatment was initiated and one year later.

Results
Negative effects of the children’s short stature on the parents decrease over time, independent of diagnosis and treatment status. Furthermore, treatment status and height increase moderated the links between children’s improved HRQOL as perceived by their parents and decreased caregiving burden.

Conclusions
Based on the children’s improved HRQOL and the parent’s decrease in caregiving burden, patient-reported outcomes that consider parental and child’s perspectives should be considered when deciding on hGH treatment for children.
Semiosic Translation: a Bayesian-heuristic theory of translation and translating
Authors: Torres-Martínez Sergio 
Published: February 2024

Abstract
In the context of Semiosic Translation, two elements are essential for a translation to emerge: the body–brain–context interface (extended mind) and the sign systems making up a translation output. In this paper, I explain how a renewed view of the body as a Bayesian-heuristic Semiotic Prior helps to understand in a more holistic manner the motivations and agentive character of translation, defined herein as a phenomenological grasp of the world. Central to the present proposal is the idea that bodily self-stabilization (homeostasis) and brain-driven correction (allostasis) provide translator-agents with maps of action upon the world that are semiotic in nature. All this occurs thanks to information weighing (Bayesian) and cue-driven (heuristic) types of inference whereby exteroceptive (exogenous) and interoceptive (inner-body) signals converge to create a sense of bodily awareness responsible for the construction of the symbolic persona (the translator-agent).
Advanced visual components inspired by animal eyes

Published: February 2024

Abstract
Artificial vision systems pervade our daily lives as a foremost sensing apparatus in various digital technologies, from smartphones to autonomous cars and robotics. The broad range of applications for conventional vision systems requires facile adaptation under extreme and dynamic visual environments. However, these current needs have complicated individual visual components for high-quality image acquisition and processing, which indeed leads to a decline in efficiency in the overall system. Here, we review recent advancements in visual components for high-performance visual processing based on strategies of biological eyes that execute diverse imaging functionalities and sophisticated visual processes with simple and concise ocular structures. This review first covers the structures and functions of biological eyes (i.e., single-lens eyes and compound eyes), which contain micro-optic components and nanophotonic structures. After that, we focus on their inspirations in imaging optics/photonics, light-trapping and filtering components, and retinomorphic devices. We discuss the remaining challenges and notable biological structures waiting to be implemented.

Desmin’s conformational modulation by hydrophobicity
Authors: Kural Mangıt Ecem , Cevheroğlu Orkun , Dinçer Pervin 
Published: February 2024

Abstract

Objectives
Nucleocytoplasmic transport is one of the key features in regulation of cellular physiology. Developing a better understanding of the molecular mechanism underlying the nucleocytoplasmic shuttling of proteins can broaden our perspective and understanding on the elaborate sorting mechanisms within cells. Desmin is a muscle specific intermediate filament with amphiphilic properties and has interactions with the components of the nuclear pore complex which facilitates the transport between the cytoplasm and nucleus. The study aims to develop a better understanding of the amphiphilic nature of desmin and its relation to nucleocytoplasmic transport.

Methods
We conducted a proteomic analysis of desmin-immunoprecipitates to identify the nuclear partners of desmin. Additionally, we analysed the amphiphilic nature of desmin using a hydrophobicity assay to determine if it can undergo conformational changes to adapt to a hydrophobic environment.

Results
Using proteomic and in silico analysis we demonstrated that desmin interacts with several nups. The hydrophobicity assay results showed that desmin can increase its surface hydrophobicity in a hydrophobic environment.

Conclusions
Our findings suggest that desmin has the ability to undergo conformational changes under favourable conditions and possibly can be transported through nucleus via direct interaction with nups. Further analysis is required to understand the functional implications of this conformational change in vivo. Data are available via ProteomeXchange with identifier PXD047121.

Abstract
In this study, a novel SnO2–Zr–F nanostructured composite was successfully synthesized through a mild chemical reaction. The crystalline nature of the composite was characterized using XRD, revealing an average crystalline size of 28.31 nm. FE-SEM images illustrated an agglomerated spherical morphology with appropriate elemental ratios. The optical properties of the nanocomposite are identified by UV–vis spectroscopy with Tauc plot, and the calculated bandgap is 2 eV. Photocatalytic activity was assessed against cationic (Rhodamine B) and anionic (Eosin yellow) dyes under sunlight for 150 min, resulting in a maximum degradation efficiency of 92 % and 98 %, respectively. Furthermore, the antibacterial performance of the composite was evaluated against S. aureus and E. coli bacteria. The findings suggest that the prepared nanocomposite exhibits promising potential for environmental applications, showcasing its efficacy in both photocatalytic and antibacterial domains.
Genetics of Performance and Injury: Considerations for the Strength and Conditioning Coach
Authors: Brazier Jon , Turner Anthony , Antrobus Mark 
Published: February 2024

ABSTRACT
Genetic profiling and direct-to-consumer genetic testing have seen exponential growth in the past decade, driven by advancements in knowledge and technology making genetic information far more accessible to the population. Specifically in the sports industry, there are claims that the results from these tests can inform training and dietary practices and even identify children's athletic talents. However, in some cases, how this information is being used or promoted can be far removed from the evidence base. Because of this, anyone involved in the sports industry, such as strength and conditioning coaches, sports scientists, coaches, and parents, need to have a sound grasp of what can and cannot be taken from genetic tests. Thus, the purpose of this article is to provide a brief overview of genetics and heredity, highlight some of the key genetic findings to date regarding athletic performance and injury, and then finally provide context as to how this information can be used.
Assessing spontaneous categorical processing of visual shapes via frequency-tagging EEG
Authors: Overwalle Jaana Van , Donck Stephanie Van der , Cruys Sander Van de , Boets Bart , Wagemans Johan 
Published: February 2024

Categorization is an essential cognitive and perceptual process, which happens spontaneously. However, earlier research often neglected the spontaneous nature of this process by mainly adopting explicit tasks in behavioural or neuroimaging paradigms. Here, we use frequency-tagging (FT) during electroencephalography (EEG) in 22 healthy human participants (both male and female) as a direct approach to pinpoint spontaneous visual categorical processing. Starting from schematic natural visual stimuli, we created morph sequences comprising 11 equal steps. Mirroring a behavioural categorical perceptiondiscriminationparadigm, we administered an FT-EEG oddball paradigm, assessing neural sensitivity for equally sized differences within and between stimulus categories. Likewise, mirroring a behavioural categoryclassificationparadigm, we administered a sweep FT-EEG oddball paradigm, sweeping from one end of the morph sequence to the other, thereby allowing us to objectively pinpoint the neural category boundary. We found that FT-EEG can implicitly measure categorical processing and discrimination. More specifically, we could derive an objective neural index of the required level to differentiate between the two categories, and this neural index showed the typical marker of categorical perception (i.e., stronger discrimination across as compared to within categories). The neural findings of the implicit paradigms were also validated using an explicit behavioural task. These results provide evidence that FT-EEG can be used as an objective tool to measure discrimination and categorization and that the human brain inherently and spontaneously (without any conscious or decisional processes) uses higher-level meaningful categorization information to interpret ambiguous (morph) shapes.Significance StatementEvery time when we encounter a new image or object, we will automatically relate it to previously stored categories. This categorization process allows us to efficiently react on new information and it influences our perception. The behavioural hallmark of categorical perception entails that we perceive differences between categories more distinctly than within a category. Previous research has mainly investigated categorical processing using explicit tasks. Here, we use carefully controlled morphs with implicit, neural electroencephalography measures to assess spontaneous categorical processing. We found higher neural amplitudes for “between”- than “within”-category morph pairs, establishing a neural correlate of categorical perception. This provides evidence that the brain inherently and automatically uses higher-level meaningful categorization information to interpret ambiguous shapes.

Economías criminales, extractivismo y acumulación entrelazada: un análisis multiescalar de los nuevos escenarios latinoamericanos
Authors: Terán-Mantovani Emiliano , Scarpacci Martin 
Published: February 2024

Este artículo examina los nuevos escenarios, formatos y dimensiones de la criminalidad en el extractivismo en América Latina, desde una perspectiva crítica, con una combinación de economía/ecología política. Se presenta un análisis de las dinámicas de entrelazamiento que se producen entre las vertientes legales/formales, las políticas de despojo que se impulsan desde las esferas de poder y las economías ilícitas/criminales. Este prisma permite poner de relieve el peso de dichas economías en la composición del extractivismo, así como analizar la evolución y el desarrollo de las dinámicas de acumulación legales/ilegales a lo largo del proceso histórico latinoamericano. En este sentido, el artículo resalta brevemente la historicidad de dicha relación para, más adelante, examinar características y tendencias de la actual economía/ecología política del extractivismo. Desde un análisis multiescalar observamos tres niveles complementarios: a) Extracciones ilícitas/criminales de recursos de la naturaleza, b) Flujos ilícitos entrelazados de commodities y c) Nuevas estatalidades y gobernanzas híbridas. Se resaltan los ocultamientos hibridaciones que, desde ámbitos financieros, fiscales, logísticos, empresariales y estatales, posibilitan y fortalecen estas extracciones violentas y los flujos ilícitos de recursos de la naturaleza. A su vez, el análisis persigue ampliar y robustecer las conceptualizaciones sobre extractivismo.
Seroma formation after modified radical mastectomy: analysing risk factors and incidence
Authors: Kumari Chandrakala , Narain N. P. 
Published: February 2024

Background: Breast cancer is a prevalent form that affects women and is a leading cause of death among women. The development of seroma is a frequent complication that can arise after breast cancer surgery, and its underlying mechanisms are still not fully understood. Consequently, data was collected to analyze the occurrence and factors that contribute to the development of seroma in patients. We aimed to enhance our comprehension and ultimately discover methods to mitigate it.
Methods: A prospective group research study was conducted on a sample of 86 female patients who underwent mastectomy from August 2020 to August 2023. This study was carried out as part of the senior residency program at Nalanda Medical College and Hospital in Patna, Bihar, India. Patients who develop seroma within four weeks of surgery are usually recommended to undergo, specifically ultrasonography, and radiological evaluation to determine the size.
Results: 27 out of 86 patients (31%) were found to have seroma. Several factors are closely linked to the development of seroma. Factors that may contribute to increased risk The minimum age at which seroma production occurs following MRM ≥56 or older, having a BMI of 26.50 or higher, a tumour measuring 4 cm or larger undergoing the removal of more than 12 lymph nodes, and having a level 3 axillary dissection.
Conclusions: After surgery, a certain group of people in the study experienced seroma formation within four weeks. These individuals had undergone MRM. Age, BMI, tumour size, level 3 axillary dissection, the removal of more than 12 lymph nodes during surgery, and the occurrence of seroma after MRM were found to be positively correlated. There was no observed connection between seroma production and a range of factors, such as neoadjuvant chemotherapy, the timing of drain removal, shoulder workouts, and the use of breast bandages.

Authors: Gupta Manisha , Kumar Abhishek , Kumar Angad , Mathur Vaibhav 
Published: February 2024

Ocular complications in cryptococcal meningitis (CM) are commonly attributed to elevated intracranial pressure (ICP). We report a case of reversible vision loss complicating acquired immunodeficiency syndrome (AIDS) related to CM with a normal ICP. The patient had sudden onset painless blindness during the anti-retroviral therapy (ART) and anti-fungal therapy. On evaluation, clinical and radiological findings of optic neuritis were present. While reviewing the literature for causes of blindness in CM, we concluded the cause was optic neuritis due to immune reconstitution inflammatory syndrome (IRIS) because of concomitant ART intake by the patient. We witnessed dramatic visual improvement after the use of systemic corticosteroids. The potential significance of this case report is to highlight the possible role of corticosteroids in the prevention of blindness due to CM.

Published: February 2024

Flooding is a recurring global issue that leads to substantial loss of life and property damage. A crucial tool in managing and mitigating the impact of flooding is using flood hazard maps, which help identify high-risk areas and enable effective planning and management. This study presents a study on developing a predictive model to identify flood-prone areas in the Mae Chan Basin of Thailand using machine learning techniques, precisely the random sub-space ensemble method combined with a deep neural network (RS-DNN) and Nadam optimizer. The model was trained using 11 geographic information system (GIS) layers, including rainfall, elevation, slope, distance from the river, soil group, NDVI, road density, curvature, land use, flow accumulation, geology, and flood inventory data. Feature selection was carried out using the Gain Ratio method. The model was validated using accuracy, precision, ROC, and AUC metrics. Using the Wilcoxon signed-rank test, the effectiveness was compared to other machine learning algorithms, including random tree and support vector machines. The results showed that the RS-DNN model achieved a higher classification accuracy of 97% in both the training and testing datasets, compared to random tree (93%) and SVM (82%). The model's performance was also validated by its high AUC value of (0.99), compared to a random tree (0.93) and SVM (0.82) at a significance level of 0.05. In conclusion, the RS-DNN model is a highly accurate tool for identifying flood-prone areas, aiding in effective flood management and planning.
