Land Security and Mobility Frictions
Authors: Adamopoulos Tasso , Brandt Loren , Chen Chaoran , Restuccia Diego , Wei Xiaoyun 
Published: March 2024

Abstract
Frictions that impede the mobility of workers across occupations and space are a prominent feature of developing countries. We disentangle the role of insecure property rights from other labor-mobility frictions for the reallocation of labor from agriculture to nonagriculture and from rural to urban areas. We combine rich household and individual-level panel data from China and an equilibrium quantitative framework featuring sorting of workers across locations and occupations. We explicitly model the farming household and the endogenous decisions of who operates the family farm and who potentially migrates, capturing an additional channel of selection in the household. We find that land insecurity has substantial negative effects on agricultural productivity and structural change, raising the share of rural households operating farms by over 40 percentage points and depressing agricultural productivity by more than 20%. Comparatively, these quantitative effects are as large as those from all residual labor-mobility frictions. We measure a sharp reduction in overall labor-mobility barriers over 2004–2018 in the Chinese economy, all accounted for by improved land security, consistent with reforms covering rural land in China during the period.

Authors: Saravanan A 
Published: March 2024

Abstract
Freshwater resources are becoming scarce and severely affected due to urbanization and industrial pollution. The per capita water supply to every Indian household is getting lesser than the recommended level. In this scenario, wastewater is considered as a new source of water supply for agriculture, industrial use, etc. Apart from the water laws, the government also adopted various policies and schemes to promote the reuse of treated wastewater for non-potable uses. However, the ineffective implementation of water laws and wastewater policies brought a new set of challenges. It is in this connection this paper analyses the comprehensive overview of constitutional provisions, key provisions of relevant laws, policies, rules, regulations, judicial intervention on wastewater management, and reuse in India. It also identifies implementation challenges in the enforcement of wastewater laws and byelaws in India.
Clear as mud: Proprietary Estoppel after Guest v Guest
Authors: Smyth Claire-Michelle , Dunbar Rupert 
Published: March 2024

Abstract
The dust should now have settled since the Supreme Court’s landmark decision in Guest v Guest (2022). However, in exploring recent case law, this article exposes that the rules applied to decide proprietary estoppel cases remain as uncertain as ever. Some commonality can be identified, but only in the persistent favouring of promisors over promisees. This article criticises the practical and theoretical underpinnings of proprietary estoppel and proposes further reform. In particular, the article draws new links from the doctrine of secret trusts to suggest a more just and certain basis for proprietary estoppel’s future application

Published: March 2024

AbstractArticular cartilage injury is one of the most common diseases in orthopedic clinics. Following an articular cartilage injury, an inability to resist vascular invasion can result in cartilage calcification by newly formed blood vessels. This process ultimately leads to the loss of joint function, significantly impacting the patient's quality of life. As a result, developing anti‐angiogenic methods to repair damaged cartilage has become a popular research topic. Despite this, tissue engineering, as an anti‐angiogenic strategy in cartilage injury repair, has not yet been adequately investigated. This exhaustive literature review mainly focused on the process and mechanism of vascular invasion in articular cartilage injury repair and summarized the major regulatory factors and signaling pathways affecting angiogenesis in the process of cartilage injury. We aimed to discuss several potential methods for engineering cartilage repair with anti‐angiogenic strategies. Three anti‐angiogenic tissue engineering methods were identified, including administering angiogenesis inhibitors, applying scaffolds to manage angiogenesis, and utilizing in vitro bioreactors to enhance the therapeutic properties of cultured chondrocytes. The advantages and disadvantages of each strategy were also analyzed. By exploring these anti‐angiogenic tissue engineering methods, we hope to provide guidance for researchers in related fields for future research and development in cartilage repair.

Authors: Bernstein Mitchell , Little Milton T.M. , Marecek Geoffrey 
Published: March 2024

Summary:
Limb reconstruction in patients with critical-sized bone defects remains a challenge due to the availability of various technically demanding treatment options and a lack of standardized decision algorithms. Although no consensus exists, it is apparent from the literature that the combination of patient, surgeon, and institutional collaborations is effective in providing the most efficient care pathway for these patients. Success relies on choosing a particular surgical approach that manages infection, soft tissue defects, stability, and alignment. Recent systematic reviews demonstrate high success rates with the following management options: Ilizarov bone transport, Masquelet (induced membrane) technique, cancellous bone grafting, and vascularized bone grafts.
Using a Machine Learning Approach to Predict the Need for Elective Revision and Unplanned Surgery after Implant-based Breast Reconstruction

Published: March 2024

Summary:
Two-stage implant-based reconstruction after mastectomy may require secondary revision procedures to treat complications, correct defects, and improve aesthetic outcomes. Patients should be counseled on the possibility of additional procedures during the initial visit, but the likelihood of requiring another procedure is dependent on many patient- and surgeon-specific factors. This study aims to identify patient-specific factors and surgical techniques associated with higher rates of secondary procedures and offer a machine learning model to compute individualized assessments for preoperative counseling. A training set of 209 patients (406 breasts) who underwent two-stage alloplastic reconstruction was created, with 45.57% of breasts (185 of 406) requiring revisional or unplanned surgery. On multivariate analysis, hypertension, no tobacco use, and textured expander use corresponded to lower odds of additional surgery. In contrast, higher initial tissue expander volume, vertical radial incision, and larger nipple-inframammary fold distance conferred higher odds of additional surgery. The neural network model trained on clinically significant variables achieved the highest collective performance metrics, with ROC AUC of 0.74, sensitivity of 84.2, specificity of 63.6, and accuracy of 62.1. The proposed machine learning model trained on a single surgeon’s data offers a precise and reliable tool to assess an individual patient’s risk of secondary procedures. Machine learning models enable physicians to tailor surgical planning and empower patients to make informed decisions aligned with their lifestyle and preferences. The utilization of this technology is especially applicable to plastic surgery, where outcomes are subject to a variety of patient-specific factors and surgeon practices, including threshold to perform secondary procedures.

Published: March 2024

Background:
A combination of four ultra-low-dose blood pressure (BP) medications lowered office BP more effectively than initial monotherapy in the QUARTET trial. The effects on average ambulatory BP changes at 12 weeks have not yet been reported in detail.

Methods:
Adults with hypertension who were untreated or on monotherapy were eligible for participation. Overall, 591 participants were randomized to either the quadpill (irbesartan 37.5 mg, amlodipine 1.25 mg, indapamide 0.625 mg, and bisoprolol 2.5 mg) or monotherapy control (irbesartan 150 mg). The difference in 24-h, daytime, and night-time systolic and diastolic ambulatory BP at 12 weeks along further metrics were predefined secondary outcomes.

Results:
Of 576 participants, 289 were randomized to the quadpill group and 287 to the monotherapy group. At 12 weeks, mean 24-h ambulatory SBP and DBP were 7.7 [95% confidence interval (95% CI) 9.6–5.8] and 5.3 (95% CI: 6.5–4.1) mmHg lower in the quadpill vs. monotherapy group (P < 0.001 for both). Similar reductions in the quadpill group were observed for daytime (8.1/5.7 mmHg lower) and night-time (6.3/4.0 mmHg lower) BP at 12 weeks (all P < 0.001) compared to monotherapy. The rate of BP control (24-h average BP < 130/80 mmHg) at 12 weeks was higher in the quadpill group (77 vs. 50%; P < 0.001). The reduction in BP load was also more pronounced with the quadpill.

Conclusion:
A quadruple quarter-dose combination compared with monotherapy resulted in greater ambulatory BP lowering across the entire 24-h period with higher ambulatory BP control rates and reduced BP variability at 12 weeks. These findings further substantiate the efficacy of an ultra-low-dose quadpill-based BP lowering strategy.
Inverted Internal Limiting Membrane Flap Coverage with Autologous Blood Technique after Air–fluid Exchange and Silicone Oil Tamponade for Extensive Macular Hole Retinal Detachment in Highly Myopic Eyes
Authors: Tao Jiwei , Zhao Shixin , She Xiangjun , lv Zhe , Zhang Yun 
Published: March 2024

Purpose
To report a technique consisting of inverted internal limiting membrane (ILM) flap coverage with autologous blood after air–fluid exchange and silicone oil tamponade in treating extensive retinal detachment (RD) secondary to a myopic macular hole (MH).

Methods
Retrospective case series. The technique was applied in 18 eyes with MH-RD extending beyond the equator with a minimum follow-up of 6 months. The procedures for pars plan vitrectomy (PPV) included the following:1) the ILM was peeled to the superior and inferior arcade margins, and except for the ILM in the temporal region, was hinged toward the edge of the MH. 2) Air–fluid exchange was then performed to drain the subretinal fluid (SRF) through the MH with a flute needle, ensuring that a small amount of SRF remained to facilitate ILM flap inversion. 3) The ILM flap was used to cover the MH with the assistance of autologous blood.

Results
Six months after surgery, the MH was successfully anatomically closed, and retinal reattachment was observed in all 18 eyes of 18 patients. The mean best-corrected visual acuity (BCVA, logMAR) improved from 2.03 ± 0.61 (ranging from hand motion [HM] [2.6] to finger counting [FC] [2.3]) to 1.23 ± 0.63 (ranging from HM [2.6] to 20/28 [0.15]) (P < 0.01) at 6 months.

Conclusion
This surgical technique using an inverted ILM flap combined with autologous blood provides an option for the treatment of extensive MHRD.

Published: March 2024

Objective
To report a validation of the Riester Big Ben Square Desk Aneroid Sphygmomanometer according to the international protocol developed by the Working Group on Blood Pressure Monitoring of the European Society of Hypertension 2002 (ESH-IP 2002) in the interest of transparency. This legacy publication is intended to assure users that the device satisfied the requirements in place at that time.

Methods
Performance of the device was assessed by participants’ age, sex, arm circumference and entry SBP/DBP. Validation was performed in 33 participants. The sphygmomanometer was assessed according to the ESH-IP, which defines zones of accuracy compared to the mercury standard as ≤5, ≤10, ≤15 mmHg or more.

Results
The mean (± SD) age was 50.5 ± 13.0 years, range 29–71 years, entry SBP 142.6 ± 23.7 mmHg, entry DBP 89.0 ± 17.8 mmHg. The device passed all the requirements listed and the validation protocol. The Riester Big Ben Square Desk aneroid sphygmomanometer slightly underestimated the observer-measured SBP, yet slightly overestimated DBP. The observer-device disagreement was −0.8 ± 6.4 mmHg SBP and +0.6 ± 4.0 mmHg DBP.

Conclusion
These data show that the Riester Big Ben Square Desk aneroid sphygmomanometer fulfilled the ESH-IP 2002 requirements for the validation of BP monitors. It was on this basis that the British and Irish Hypertension Society recommended it for clinical use in the adult population.

Clinical Effectiveness of an Aquatic Exercise Program on Those With Visual Impairment: A Pilot Study
Authors: Rinehimer Maureen , Winton Clare , Ostrowski Marlena , Ertwine Kailey 
Published: March 2024

Background and Purpose:
Visual impairments impact an individual’s ability to participate in certain activities, like exercise. Often, individuals with visual impairment have difficulty maintaining an active lifestyle, due to inopportunity and safety hazards. There is a lack of research on the use of aquatic exercise as a form of physical activity in those with visual impairments. The purpose of this study was to determine if this population can tolerate and benefit from an aquatic exercise program. Additionally, this study served to determine the effects of aquatic exercise on cardiovascular fitness, strength, and quality of life in individuals with visual impairment.

Methods:
This was a quasi-experimental study, evaluating participants with visual impairment aged 30 to 80 years, recruited from Northeast Sight Services in Exeter, PA. This study was reviewed and accepted by the Misericordia University Institutional Review Board. Eight participants were guided by physical therapy students and a primary researcher through a biweekly, 8-week aquatic exercise program at the Misericordia University Anderson Center Pool. This study utilized a pretest/post-test design to collect outcome measures. These included the 6-Minute Walk Test, 30-S Chair Stand Test, Modified Borg Ratings of Perceived Exertion (mRPE), the Modified Borg Dyspnea Scale, and the SF-36.

Results:
Paired t-tests and Cohen’s d were performed for the 6-Minute Walk Test (p = .04).953; Cohen’s d = 0.77, and the 30 Second Chair Stand Test (p = .02); Cohen’s d = 0.95 with large effect and significance. A Wilcoxon Signed Ranks and Cohen’s d were utilized for the mRPE 3 min, Cohen’s d = 0.27, Wilcoxon Signed Ranks 2.032 (p = .042), Borg RPE d = 1.054 and the SF-36 Cohen’s d = 2.3063.

Discussion and Conclusion:
This aquatic exercise program was tolerated well in this population and the results provide rehabilitation specialists an opportunity to promote health through aquatic programs for those with visual impairment. Furthermore, aquatic exercise was shown to be effective in improving lower extremity strength, cardiovascular endurance, and quality of life in participants, suggesting that aquatic exercise is a feasible intervention for this population.

Published: March 2024

Objective:
Children and adolescents with HIV infection are well known to face a heightened risk of tuberculosis. However, the exact mortality rates and temporal trends of those with HIV-tuberculosis (TB) co-infection remain unclear. We aimed to identify the overall mortality and temporal trends within this population.

Methods:
PubMed, Web of Science, and Embase were employed to search for publications reporting on the mortality rates of children and adolescents with HIV-TB co-infection from inception to March 2, 2024. The outcome is the mortality rate for children and adolescents with HIV-TB co-infection during the follow-up period. In addition, we evaluate the temporal trends of mortality.

Results:
During the follow-up period, the pooled mortality was 16% [95% confidence interval (CI) 13–20]. Single infection of either HIV or TB exhibit lower mortality rates (6% and 4%, respectively). We observed elevated mortality risks among individuals aged less than 12 months, those with extrapulmonary TB, poor adherence to ART, and severe immunosuppression. In addition, we observed a decreasing trend in mortality before 2008 and an increasing trend after 2008, although the trends were not statistically significant (P = 0.08 and 0.2 respectively).

Conclusions:
Children and adolescents with HIV-TB co-infection bear a significant burden of mortality. Timely screening, effective treatment, and a comprehensive follow-up system contribute to reducing the mortality burden in this population.
