AbstractTransmission lines and outdoor substations are replete with various forms of micro energy such as wind energy, solar energy, and electromagnetic energy. There exists micro energy in the forms of mechanical vibrations, temperature differences, and humidity in power distribution equipment. Innovative sensor or monitoring methods are needed to maintain the stability and digitisation of the grid. Unfortunately, there is limited study on the power supply of these sensor systems. Triboelectric nanogenerators, which are environmentally friendly and use simple materials, show excellent performance in environmental nano‐energy collection and self‐powered online monitoring. Therefore, environmental energy collection systems based on triboelectric nanogenerators are one of the selected methods to convert magnetic energy in the magnetic field into electrical energy. A model structure was designed using the contact separation mode, which is one of the four working modes of triboelectric nanogenerators, based on the strength of the magnetic field in the environment. This structure mainly consists of the friction layer, electrodes for current conduction, and connected loads. The research includes a comparison of four inherent electrical outputs of the triboelectric nanogenerator: open‐circuit voltage, short‐circuit current, capacitance, and power. COMSOL Multiphysics software was used for all modelling and simulation of the TENG. This software was used for the design, material selection, and static study of the TENG. When the relative dielectric constant was fixed, the output voltage reached and the energy reached . Overall, ideal reference can be provided for researchers studying power supply issues for sensors in complex magnetic field situations and help them design high‐performance TENGs.

Published: April 2024

Background: In the state of Kentucky, many status asthmaticus (SA) patients require care in the Pediatric Intensive Care Unit (PICU) and a fraction of these patients may receive “rescue therapies” with inhaled volatile anesthetics (IVA) and/or Extracorporeal Membrane Oxygenation (ECMO). We present a series of such patients with the objective of comparing the clinical parameters of individual patients who received inhaled volatile anesthesia and subsequently the need for ECMO. Methods: Children between 2 and 18 years of age admitted to our PICU from January 2014 to July 2020 with SA were reviewed and categorized as 1) patients who received IVA alone, 2) patients who received IVA and then subsequently ECMO, and 3) patients on ECMO alone. Results: A total of 1772 children with SA episodes were identified with a mortality of 13 patients. Seven children with SA were identified who received either IVA, ECMO, or both. One patient received only IVA, 5 received both IVA and ECMO and one received only ECMO. All received standard asthma therapies of steroids, albuterol, magnesium sulphate, and aminophylline prior to escalation. Six out of seven refractory SA received IVA, and five (83%) of those were subsequently escalated to ECMO. There was an improvement in mean pH after cannulation compared to IVA. pCO2 levels had no improvement after IVA administration but decreased by an average of 20 points after ECMO. Patients peak inspiratory pressures decreased within the 1st 24 h of ECMO cannulation from a mean of 30 to 18. There were no other complications related to ECMO placement. Conclusion: While we cannot decisively draw any conclusions from our study due to the small sample, it was noted that there was no clear advantage of using IVA prior to ECMO in our patients. Most patients who received IVA were escalated to ECMO indicating that early ECMO cannulation may be beneficial. Given the high cost and potential complications of both, there is a need for the development of well-defined guidelines for severe SA management in the PICU.
Die Anwendbarkeit der pathischen Kategorien nach V. v. Weizsäcker in
einer Praxis für Physiotherapie und Ergotherapie (2) – vier
Fallbeispiele
Authors: Utech Michael 
Published: April 2024

ZusammenfassungNach Viktor von Weizsäcker ist das Leben aus Sicht der medizinischen
Anthropologie nicht nur ein Vorgang, der sich mit naturwissenschaftlichen
Mitteln erschöpfend erfassen und beschreiben lässt, sondern es wird auch
erlitten – es ist pathisch. Dieses Pathische des Lebens, das sich durch seine
Dynamik, Veränderlichkeit und Widersprüchlichkeit auszeichnet, mündet in die
fünf pathischen Kategorien: Dürfen, Können, Sollen, Müssen, Wollen sowie deren
Negation: Nicht-Wollen etc. Jede Kategorie befindet sich mit allen anderen
Kategorien als Komplex in unauflösbarer Verbundenheit. Weizsäcker verbildlicht
dies mithilfe eines Pentagramms. Gesundheitliche Nöte können aus Konflikten
zwischen den Kategorien hervorgehen. In diesem Beitrag wird anhand von
Fallbeispielen aufgezeigt, inwiefern das pathische Pentagramm geeignet ist, bei
gesundheitlichen Nöten (auch verborgene) Konflikte intrapsychischer und
interpersoneller Natur aufzudecken, zu strukturieren und somit zu begreifen. Aus
den sich daraus ergebenen Erkenntnissen lassen sich gewinnbringende
bewegungstherapeutische Maßnahmen entwickeln und anwenden.

Abstract
Introduction Pirfenidone was the first anti-fibrotic drug approved in Europe in 2011 for the treatment of mild-to-moderate idiopathic pulmonary fibrosis.

Objectives To investigate the clinical course of mild-to-moderate idiopathic pulmonary fibrosis in pirfenidone-treated patients in a real-world setting.

Methods The non-interventional study was conducted at 18 sites in Germany from 6/2014–12/2016. Adult patients with mild-to-moderate idiopathic pulmonary fibrosis were treated with pirfenidone (escalated from 3×1 to 3×3 capsules of 267 mg/day within 3 weeks) for 12 months. The observation period comprised 4 follow-up visits at months 3, 6, 9 and 12. Disease progression was defined as decrease of ≥10% in vital capacity or ≥15% in diffusing capacity of the lung for carbon monoxide (DLCO) and/or ≥50m in 6-minute walking distance vs. baseline, or “lack of response/progression“ as reason for therapy discontinuation.

Results A total of 51 patients (80.4% male, mean age 70.6 years) were included in the full analysis set. Disease progression at any visit was reported for 23 (67.6%) of 34 patients with available data. Over the course of the study, lung function parameters, physical resilience, impact of cough severity on quality of life, and the mean Gender, Age and Physiology Index (stage II) remained stable. In total, 29 patients (56.9%) experienced at least one adverse drug reaction (11 patients discontinued due to adverse drug reactions); serious adverse reactions were reported in 12 patients (23.5%).

Conclusions The results of this study are in line with the established benefit-risk profile of pirfenidone. Therefore, pirfenidone can be considered a valuable treatment option to slow disease progression in mild-to-moderate idiopathic pulmonary fibrosis. NCT02622477
Themen und Aktivitäten landesgesetzlich verankerter kommunaler und
bezirklicher Gesundheitskonferenzen 2013–2022: Ergebnisse eines non-reaktiven
Online-Screenings

Zusammenfassung
Ziel der Arbeit Der Öffentliche Gesundheitsdienst hat unter anderem die
Gesundheitsförderung und Prävention, Gesundheitsberichterstattung und
Gesundheitsplanung zur Aufgabe. Zur Vernetzung und Koordinierung kommunaler
Akteure sind dafür vielerorts kommunale oder bezirkliche Gesundheitskonferenzen
(GKen) etabliert, die in Baden-Württemberg, Berlin, Hamburg, Hessen und
Nordrhein-Westfalen landesgesetzlich verankert sind. Aufgrund des Mangels an
systematischen und übergreifenden Untersuchungen zu GKen wird eine deskriptive
Analyse ihrer Merkmale, Themenschwerpunkte und Aktivitäten in ausgewählten
Bundesländern durchgeführt.
Methoden Auf Basis eines nonreaktiven Online-Screenings der Aktivitäten
von 2013 bis 2022 erfolgt eine Vollerhebung der GKen in vier Bundesländern
(n=110). Systematisch erhoben werden Informationen zu Strukturmerkmalen, Themen
und GK-Aktivitäten. In den Konferenzen behandelte Themen werden mit
Gesundheitszielen der Länder abgeglichen. Nach einem Untersucherabgleich
erfolgen übergeordnete univariate sowie bivariate Analysen nach Bundesland,
Gebietskörperschaft und Gründungsjahr.
Ergebnisse Insgesamt häufig behandelte Themen in den GKen sind die
Primärversorgung, Kinder- und Jugendgesundheit und Gesundheit im Alter,
Infektionsschutz, Bewegung und Ernährung sowie Sucht, wobei sich die
Häufigkeiten zwischen den Bundesländern und Gebietskörperschaften zum Teil
erheblich unterscheiden. Themen in den GKen zeigen deutliche Assoziationen mit
den jeweiligen Landesgesundheitszielen. Gesundheitsversorgung wird deutlich
häufiger in Landkreisen als in kreisfreien Städten thematisiert. Jüngere
Konferenzen (ab 2011 gegründet) weisen bei der Häufigkeit von Plenumssitzungen
und bei Pressemitteilungen eine höhere Aktivität auf als ältere GKen.
Schlussfolgerung GKen zeigen eine erhebliche Breite an Themenschwerpunkten
– häufig angelehnt an landesspezifische Gesundheitsziele – mit erkennbaren
Unterschieden zwischen Land und Stadt. Jüngere Konferenzen zeigen eine höhere
Aktivität als ältere, was ein Hinweis auf Nachhaltigkeitsprobleme unter
aktuellen Rahmenbedingungen sein könnte. Anders als bei der
Gesundheitsberichterstattung zeigt sich kein Stadt-Land-Gefälle bzgl. der
GK-Aktivität. Die sich aus dieser deskriptiven Analyse ergebenden Hypothesen
sollten weiter untersucht werden, um ein nachhaltiges Wirken der GKen
sicherzustellen.

Objective We evaluated if venous thromboembolism (VTE) prophylaxis in the inpatient antepartum period was associated with wound hematomas, VTE occurrence, and other adverse outcomes.
Study Design This study is a secondary analysis of a retrospective cohort of patients who delivered at University of Alabama at Birmingham (UAB). Patients receiving outpatient anticoagulation (AC) were excluded. We grouped patients into those who received inpatient antepartum prophylactic AC and those who did not. The primary outcome was wound hematomas from delivery to 6 weeks postpartum (PP). Secondary outcomes included VTE occurrence and select adverse outcomes, including other wound complications, unplanned procedures, mode of anesthesia, and intensive care unit (ICU) admission. Analyses were performed with no AC group as the reference. A sensitivity analysis excluding those who received inpatient PP AC was performed.
Results Of 1,035 included patients, only 169 patients received inpatient prophylactic AC. They were older, had higher body mass indices, and more comorbidities. Patients receiving inpatient antepartum AC had higher wound hematomas (adjusted odds ratio [aOR] 23.81; 95% confidence interval [CI] 7.04–80.47). They had similar risk for developing VTE as the control group (aOR 2.68; 95% CI 0.19–37.49) but were more likely to have wound complications (aOR 2.36; 95% CI 1.24–4.47), maternal deaths (p < 0.05), and require PP ICU admission (aOR 13.38; 95% CI 4.79–37.35). When excluding those receiving any PP AC, there was no difference in bleeding complications between the two groups and VTE rates remained unchanged. Rates of maternal deaths and PP ICU admissions remained higher in those who received inpatient antepartum AC prophylaxis.
Conclusion In this small cohort study, increased wound hematomas were found in those who received inpatient antepartum AC prophylaxis with no difference in VTE occurrence. While adverse events were increased in the inpatient AC group, this was mostly associated with PP AC prophylaxis. Larger studies should be conducted to describe the true benefits and risks of antepartum AC prophylaxis and determine efficacy of this widely used practice.

Published: April 2024

Abstract
Background After recently published randomized clinical trials, the choice of the best anesthetic procedure for mechanical thrombectomy (MT) in acute ischemic stroke (AIS) due to large vessel occlusion (LVO) is not definite.
Objective To compare the efficacy and safety of general anesthesia (GA) versus conscious sedation (CS) in patients with AIS who underwent MT, explicitly focusing on procedural and clinical outcomes and the incidence of adverse events.
Methods PubMed, Embase, and Cochrane were systematically searched for randomized controlled trials (RCTs) comparing GA versus CS in patients who underwent MT due to LVO-AIS. Odds ratios (ORs) were calculated for binary outcomes, with 95% confidence intervals (CIs). Random effects models were used for all outcomes. Heterogeneity was assessed with I2 statistics.
Results Eight RCTs (1,300 patients) were included, of whom 650 (50%) underwent GA. Recanalization success was significantly higher in the GA group (OR 1.68; 95% CI 1.26–2.24; p < 0.04) than in CS. No significant difference between groups were found for good functional recovery (OR 1.13; IC 95% 0.76–1.67; p = 0.56), incidence of pneumonia (OR 1.23; IC 95% 0.56- 2,69; p = 0.61), three-month mortality (OR 0.99; IC 95% 0.73–1.34; p = 0.95), or cerebral hemorrhage (OR 0.97; IC 95% 0.68–1.38; p = 0.88).
Conclusion Despite the increase in recanalization success rates in the GA group, GA and CS show similar rates of good functional recovery, three-month mortality, incidence of pneumonia, and cerebral hemorrhage in patients undergoing MT.
Role of Anti-Müllerian Hormone in the Central Regulation of Fertility
Authors: Cotellessa Ludovica , Giacobini Paolo 
Published: April 2024

AbstractIn recent years, the expanding roles of anti-Müllerian hormone (AMH) in various aspects of reproductive health have attracted significant attention. Initially recognized for its classical role in male sexual differentiation, AMH is produced postnatally by the Sertoli cells in the male testes and by the granulosa cells in the female ovaries. Traditionally, it was believed to primarily influence gonadal development and function. However, research over the last decade has unveiled novel actions of AMH beyond the gonads, specifically all along the hypothalamic–pituitary–gonadal axis. This review will focus on the emerging roles of AMH within the hypothalamus and discusses its potential implications in reproductive physiology. Additionally, recent preclinical and clinical studies have suggested that elevated levels of AMH may disrupt the hypothalamic network regulating reproduction, which could contribute to the central pathophysiology of polycystic ovary syndrome. These findings underscore the intricate interplay between AMH and the neuroendocrine system, offering new avenues for understanding the mechanisms underlying fertility and reproductive disorders.
I’ll Take Gender Differences for $400: Using Jeopardy! to Analyze Attitudes Toward Risk
Authors: Leeds Michael A. , Leeds Eva Marikova 
Published: April 2024

AbstractStudies have shown that women perform worse than men in winner-take-all competitions and often avoid such settings entirely, which could put women at a significant disadvantage in the labor market. Recent research, however, has challenged this view. One problem with testing for risk averse behavior is the difficulty of finding settings in which people can display it. We find such a setting in the Final Jeopardy segment of the game show Jeopardy! Using data on wagers in Final Jeopardy, we show that women who compete on the show are no more risk averse than men.
Animal photojournalism as knowledge translation
Authors: van Vuuren Xany Jansen 
Published: April 2024

Abstract
This chapter explores the ways in which photojournalism (specifically animal activist photography of domesticated
animals1) functions as translation and, in particular, knowledge translation.
Referring broadly to the synthesis, exchange, and application of knowledge produced during research processes, knowledge
translation actively bridges the chasm between the acquisition of knowledge and application of knowledge. By providing visual
information that verbal communication would otherwise not be able to convey, animal activist photography is not only a
translational process of the knowledge of the activist/photographer behind the lens, but also the plight of the animal in
front of the lens. Furthermore, by approaching this study within ecosemiotics, a branch of semiotics that explores the human
relationships to nature this chapter engages with the human/non-human relations that are represented by animal activist
photojournalism.
Sex and the stability of a legal gender system
Authors: Almarri Saqer A. 
Published: April 2024

Abstract
Islamic law’s gender system is based on a conception of humans as sexually dimorphic. The presence of nonbinary
bodies, specifically the khunthā, posed a challenge to the gender system. Law practitioners, like ʿAbd
al-Raḥīm al-Isnawī (d. 722/1322), attempted to redefine sex and intersexuality to stabilise the legal gender system. In an
exploration of al-Isnawī’s writings, I argue that he engages in a form of object translation, following Marais’s typology of
translation. Al-Isnawī incorporated the khunthā into the gender system by unravelling the challenge posed by
their ambiguity onto Islamic law. This redefinition effectively defines them into impossibility by legal technicalities.

Abstract
Estimates suggest that over one-third of food is lost or wasted along the food supply chain, with significant environmental and economic effects. This is one of the primary problems with today’s food systems, along with decreased agricultural yield and food quality. Many people attribute the decline in output and the deterioration of food quality to a lack of technology and ignorance about modern technologies. As a result, scientists are working hard to find innovative solutions to these problems and create new food production methods to feed the world’s growing population. Increased agricultural yields and quality may be achieved in a variety of settings by employing genetically engineered techniques. Newer techniques and technologies involving genetic modification and recombinant (r) deoxyribonucleic acid could be very helpful in the pursuit of significant improvements in food production and food supply, and biotechnology is a key part of this. Recent progress in genetic engineering, where it came from, the current trend, and its potential future are all discussed in this overview. Genetically modified organisms (GMOs) are major aspects of the industrial food system, and most packaged foods contain GMOs ingredients that have been bred to be resistant to pesticides and herbicides. There are a number of factors that raise red flags concerning GMOs, including safety, consequences on the environment and present ineffective employment of pesticides have also been considered. Furthermore, GMOs regulation and controversy among different scientists has also been discussed. Many individuals are concerned about GMOs, yet they may not fully grasp the concerns at hand. Therefore, the level of GMO knowledge revealed by this review can be calculated.
Helminth parasites of wolves (Canis lupus): a species list and an analysis of published prevalence studies in Nearctic and Palaearctic populations
Authors: Craig H.L. , Craig P.S. 
Published: April 2024

AbstractA literature survey was undertaken in order to draw up a definitive list of helminth parasites of the wolf,Canis lupus. From 27 papers a total of 72 helminth species from 40 genera were recorded that infect wolves, of which 93% were identified from the gastrointestinal tract at necropsy. They comprised 28 species of nematode, 27 species of cestode, 16 species of trematode and one acanthocephalan. Of these, 46 species were able to be included in further meta-analysis of prevalence data derived from 25 publications for which the total number of wolves examined was 1282 (1066 from Nearctic populations, and 216 from the Palaearctic region). These two populations were further subdivided into three relevent ecosystems or biomes, i.e. temperate/montane (n=216), boreal (n=805) or tundra (n=261). The meta-analysis of relative prevalence indicated the most common helminth species to be the tapewormTaenia hydatigena, which occurred at relative rates of >30% for either zoogeographic region as well as in each of the three biomes. The related tapeworm,Echinococcus granulosusalso exhibited high meta-prevalence (>19%) in all host biomes. The hookwormUncinaria stenocephalawas the most prevalent nematode species by meta-analysis (meta-prevalence 44.9%) in the temperate/montane biome, while the ascaridToxascaris leoninawas the dominant helminth species (meta-prevalence 73.9%) in the tundra wolf populations. Trematodes in the genusAlariawere the dominant fluke (meta-prevalence 3–5%) in all biomes. Analysis of published studies for helminth biodiversity using the Shannon-Wiener index based on species number and meta-prevalence by region or biome, indicated that highest helminth diversity occurred in wolf populations of the temperate/ montane biome (Palaearctic), and was lowest in tundra wolf populations of the Nearctic (P<0.05). Helminth species assemblage in European wolf populations was therefore at least as great or more varied than was recorded for the larger less disturbed wolf populations of North America.
