Direct interconnection of seismicity with variations of the Earth's electric and magnetic field before major earthquakes
Authors: Varotsos P. A. , Sarlis N. V. , Skordas E. S. 
Published: March 2024

Abstract
Upon employing the new concept of time, termed natural time, the analysis of seismicity reveals that, before major earthquakes, the variations of the Earth's electric and/or magnetic field are accompanied by increase of the fluctuations of the entropy change of seismicity under time reversal as well as by decrease of the fluctuations of the seismicity order parameter. Hence, natural time analysis reveals that before major earthquakes independent datasets of different geophysical observables (seismicity, Earth's magnetic and/or electric field) exhibit changes, which are observed simultaneously.

Template Routed Patient-Specific Implant for 1-Stage Cranioplasty
Authors: Fahem Mena Mekhael , Das R. Krishna , Luther Harleen , Ali Ali Husain 
Published: March 2024

BACKGROUND AND OBJECTIVES:
Cranial reconstruction presents a significant challenge in cases involving pathologies with skull invasion, and various techniques have been used, including the intraoperative shaping of titanium mesh and the manual sculpting of bone cement serving as surrogates for the excised bone graft. In the context of prefabricated patient-specific implants (PSIs) for cranioplasty, precise surgical execution of craniotomies is paramount. This ensures optimal congruity between the implant and the defect created during the craniotomy, leading to a successful single-stage procedure encompassing both bone removal and reconstruction. This article presents a meticulous method for achieving such high-fidelity craniotomy and subsequent cranioplasty using PSIs in a single-stage surgery.

METHODS:
The procedure was implemented for 2 cases of meningiomas with osseous invasion. Through meticulous preoperative planning, the craniotomy template and implant were designed using computer-assisted design and manufactured on a 3-dimensional printer using the patient's computed tomography scans. Intraoperative fabrication of sterile polymethyl methacrylate replicas was achieved through the creation of silicone molds and subsequent injection molding techniques. Predesignated screw holes facilitated neuronavigation-assisted positioning of the template, aligning it accurately with the target site using registration points. Mini-screws firmly secured the template to the skull. Guided by the template, a craniotomy router performed the bone resection. On completion, the implant was affixed into place using plates and screws.

RESULTS:
This technique demonstrably facilitated a cost-effective, streamlined and precise application of prefabricated PSIs within a single-stage craniotomy-cranioplasty procedure. Subjective patient reports indicated high levels of satisfaction with the outcome.

CONCLUSION:
The template routed patient-specific implant 1-stage cranioplasty technique refines previous approaches through precise template localization on the skull, enabling an accurate craniotomy to match a prefabricated PSI. This single-stage procedure rivals hand-shaped methods in aesthetics and compares with the outcomes of 2-stage PSI cranioplasties. Additional studies are needed to validate our results.

Colorectal Cancer Screening Rates at Federally Qualified Health Centers From 2014 to 2022: Incomplete Recovery From COVID-19 and Worsening Disparities
Authors: Zhao Matthew Y. , Lei Yvonne Y. , Aaronson Megan R.M. , De Silva Sadie R. , Badiee Jayraan , May Folasade P. 
Published: March 2024

INTRODUCTION:
Federally Qualified Health Centers (FQHC) provide preventive health services such as colorectal cancer (CRC) screening to low-income and underinsured individuals. Overall CRC screening participation in the United States declined during the COVID-19 pandemic and recovered by 2021; however, trends in underresourced settings are unknown.

METHODS:
Using Uniform Data System data from 2014 to 2022, we assessed trends in FQHC CRC screening rates nationally, in California, and in Los Angeles County and determined clinic-level factors associated with recent screening rate changes. For each FQHC, we calculated the screening rate change from 2019 to 2020, 2020 to 2021, and 2020 to 2022. We used mixed-effects linear regression to determine clinic-level characteristics associated with each screening rate change.

RESULTS:
Across all FQHC (n = 1,281), 7,016,181 patients were eligible for CRC screening in 2022. Across the United States and in California, median screening rates increased from 2014 to 2019, severely declined in 2020, and failed to return to prepandemic levels by 2022. Both nationally and in California, CRC screening declined most dramatically from 2019 to 2020 in FQHC serving majority Hispanic/Latino patients or a high proportion of patients experiencing homelessness. From 2020 to 2022, screening rates did not recover completely in US FQHC, with disproportionate recovery among FQHC serving majority non-Hispanic Black patients.

DISCUSSION:
CRC screening rates at FQHC did not return to prepandemic levels by 2022, and recovery varied by FQHC patient characteristics. Tailored interventions addressing low and decreasing CRC screening rates in FQHC are urgently needed to mitigate worsening CRC disparities.

Acrylonitrile is widely used to produce carbon fibres, household textiles, artificial fur, etc. The modification of polyacrylonitrile fibres in an alkaline medium is extended in the production of textile sorbents. The scientific direction of fibre modification through surface activation using hydrogen peroxide is of scientific interest. However, the thermal and thermophysical properties of the samples are not examined. Therefore, interest arises when analysing the effect of polyacrylonitrile textile material functionalization on the resistance of fibres to thermal oxidation and thermal degradation. The study of thermogravimetry and differential thermogravimetry thermooxide of polyacrylonitrile – modified fibres is carried out using thermogravimetric analysis to research the thermal oxidation and thermal degradation of modified polyacrylonitrile fibre samples. A change in the rate of thermal oxidative-degradation in the process of functionalization was identified in this research. A change in the loss of mass of the sample under different conditions of functionalization was also identified. The total glass transition of the polyacrylonitrile was achieved by heating the polymer to 130 °C. The intensification self-regulation of the structure of the polymeric material through the formation of the mesophase was released at the temperature of around 100 °C. During the heating of the initial polyacrylonitrile textile material to the temperature of 70‒80 °C, a weakening of intermolecular contacts was observed, which led to an increase in the mobility of macromolecular segments. The temperature of 78 °С was considered to be the initial glass transition temperature Tg,t1 and Tg,t2 – 121 °С as the final temperature for the original sample. However, if the temperature exceeded 130 °C, chemical changes in the polymer occurred, in particular, the process of cyclization. The analysis of the thermogravimetry data of thermally oxidized samples resulted in the retention of the complex stepwise nature of decomposition inherent in the initial fibrous material based on acrylonitrile copolymers. The conducted analysis showed the absence of significant changes in the reasonable conditions of chemical modification and practical operation of textile materials. The physical and mechanical properties of functionalized textile materials based on acrylonitrile copolymers were studied. As a result of surface functionalization, an insignificant strength reduction of functionalized textile materials occurred.

Over the past two decades, e‑participation has become increasingly relevant as a result of digitization and the evolution of information and communication technologies. Yet the perspectives of providers and users with regard to the requirements on an e‑participation system are not sufficiently considered jointly. This paper investigates the requirements and challenges of users and providers. The study is based on a mixed methods approach with an online survey of those responsible for e‑participation processes in various administrative and planning areas as well as semi-structured expert interviews. In addition, we conducted proband tests to investigate the usability of digital citizen participation tools. The results show that accessibility, retrievability, effectiveness, interaction in the digital arena, security, technical specifications, resources, media literacy and the use of participation as a basis for profound decision-making are key requirements for e‑participation systems. These demands requirements are interrelated and influence the quality and effectiveness of participation processes. To meet these requirements, we propose an e‑participation ecosystem that integrates the different dimensions of digital participation and takes into account the interaction between actors, demands and contextual conditions.
Linguistic landscaping from above in China: scale-making and language ideologies
Authors: Shang Guowen 
Published: March 2024

Abstract
The sociolinguistics of mobility is one of Jan Blommaert’s significant theoretical legacies vis-à-vis language interactions in the age of globalization. This paper investigates the mobilization of English as a semiotic resource in the public space of Chinese cities to reveal how the process of linguistic landscaping rescales English in China’s layered language regime. In the three investigated cities in eastern China, the English language has been conceptualized as a symbol of internationalization, and the affective potentials of English signs turn the cities into spaces of friendliness. I argue that the visual bilingualism for internationalization purposes is loaded with state ideologies, and English semiotization in the urban space demonstrates the state’s keenness for international recognition and integration into the global world. Inherent in this linguistic landscaping process are Englishization as internationalization ideology, standard language ideology, and linguistic purism ideology. While the translocal status of English in the world language system serves to upscale the cities to a higher scale level, the valorization of English in the official domain also reinforces the hegemonic power of English in the indexicality order, marginalizing social groups with limited English literacy. Thus, a critical, dialectical lens is needed to analyze the role of English in top-down linguistic landscaping.

Published: March 2024

Abstract
Pollinators are critical to ecosystem health and agricultural productivity. Endemic bee diversity and abundance among different crops has not been extensively studied, especially among perennial crops in Washington state. The goals of this study were to characterize bee genera diversity in south central Washington state, determine the abundance and diversity of bees among crop types, and determine if farming practices influence abundance and diversity by comparing bee diversity in managed agricultural sites to adjacent unmanaged, natural sites. This study investigated bee genera diversity and abundance in blueberry fields produced under organic certification programs, conventionally produced Concord juice and wine grape vineyards, conventionally produced spearmint and peppermint fields, and conventionally produced hopyards. The majority of bees found in the study were ground-nesting. Mint fields had the highest pollinator abundance and richness. In general, there was a greater abundance, diversity, and richness of bees found in unmanaged compared with managed sites. This indicates that areas of high agricultural intensity have relatively low bee genera abundance and diversity.
Angriffe auf Rettungsdienstmitarbeitende und Polizeibedienstete: Eine vergleichende Betrachtung mit präventionsrelevanten Implikationen
Authors: Leuschner Fredericke , Riehl Clemens , Lorei Clemens 
Published: March 2024

Zusammenfassung
Von körperlichen und verbalen Angriffen auf Einsatzkräfte wird in den Medien derzeit vermehrt berichtet. Diese Angriffe stellen für die Betroffenen vielseitige Belastungen dar. Zwei besonders relevante Berufsfelder sind hierbei Rettungsdienst und Polizei. Ein Vergleich dieser beiden Berufsgruppen gibt Aufschluss über gruppenspezifische Problemfelder, die sich zum Beispiel aus unterschiedlichen Aufgabenbereichen und verschiedenen Aus- und Fortbildungen für die beiden Berufe ergeben. Im Rahmen der Studie wurden Rettungsdienstmitarbeitende und Polizeibedienstete befragt (N = 3.506). Es zeigt sich hierbei, dass beide Berufsgruppen häufig von Angriffen betroffen sind. In diesem Kontext zeichnet sich ein Bedarf an Schulungen und Fortbildungen ab. Außerdem spricht die seltener vorliegende kritische Voreinschätzung der Situation seitens der Rettungsdienstmitarbeitenden dafür, dass mehr Bewusstsein für die Gefahr möglicher Angriffe aufgebaut werden sollte. Der Abbau von Risikofaktoren wie der hohen Arbeitsbelastung oder einem hohen Stresslevel sollte besonders beim Rettungsdienst diskutiert werden.

Is there hyper-raising in European Portuguese?
Authors: Gonçalves Anabela , Colaço Madalena 
Published: March 2024

Abstract
Several languages allow for hyper-raising, a structure in which a DP that is interpreted as the subject of a finite complement clause is spelled-out as the subject of the matrix clause. Hyper-raising challenges certain core concepts of syntactic theory related to movement and locality. Various proposals have been made for analysing these structures, the main difference being whether the final position of the DP results from movement or not. It has often been assumed that European Portuguese, in contrast to Brazilian Portuguese, does not allow hyper-raising, or only allows it in very limited contexts. In this paper, we present empirical data extracted from written corpora and experimental results attesting to the production and acceptance of hyper-raising structures by a number of native speakers of European Portuguese. We contribute to identifying the contexts that favour hyper-raising in this variety and outline a preliminary analysis to explain what leads these speakers to produce and accept hyper-raising, while many others systematically reject it. In our proposal, this difference results from the properties of the embedded functional heads T and C, and the way in which their formal features are checked. Specifically, we propose that those speakers dissociate Case features from person-number features.
Improving Accuracy of Medication Reconciliation for Hospitalized Children: A Quality Project
Authors: Gunkelman Samantha M. , Jamerino-Thrush Jennifer , Genet Katherine , Blackford Martha , Jones Kerwyn , Bigham Michael T. 
Published: March 2024

BACKGROUND AND OBJECTIVES
Medication reconciliation is a complex, but necessary, process to prevent patient harm from medication discrepancies. Locally, the steps of medication reconciliation are completed consistently; however, medication errors still occur, which suggest process inaccuracies. We focused on removal of unnecessary medications as a proxy for accuracy. The primary aim was to increase the percentage of patients admitted to the pediatric hospital medicine service with at least 1 medication removed from the home medication list by 10% during the hospital stay by June of 2022.

METHODS
Using the Model for Improvement, a multidisciplinary team was formed at a children’s hospital, a survey was completed, and multiple Plan–Do–Study–Act cycles were done focusing on: 1. simplifying electronic health record processes by making it easier to remove medications; 2. continuous resident education about the electronic health record processes to improve efficiency and address knowledge gaps; and 3. auditing charts and real-time feedback. Data were monitored with statistical process control charts.

RESULTS
The project exceeded the goal, improving from 35% to 48% of patients having at least 1 medication removed from their home medication list. Improvement has sustained for 12 months.

CONCLUSIONS
The combination of interventions including simplifying workflow, improving education, and enhancing accountability resulted in more patients with medications removed from their home medication list.
The moderating effect of income inequality in fiscal policy efficiency: The case of Central and Eastern Europe
Authors: Aktaş Emi̇n Efecan 
Published: March 2024

AbstractOne of the objectives of fiscal policy is to ensure a fair income distribution. In the literature there is no consensus on the income inequality – fiscal policy nexus. Unlike previous studies, this paper contributes to the literature by quantifying the moderating effect of income inequality in total tax revenues and gross national expenditures which are defined as fiscal policy tools. With the help of two moderator variables (income inequality*total tax revenues, and income inequality*gross national expenditures), the impact of income inequality and fiscal policy tools on economic growth are tested for 20 Central and Eastern European (CEE) countries from 1990 to 2019. Diagnostic tests are also carried out on the series before long-term relationships are determined. Our analysis finds that the inequality-growth relationship is negative, the moderator variable defined as income inequality * total tax revenues decreases the strength of the relationship, and the moderator variable defined as income inequality * gross national expenditures increases the strength of the relationship.
