The interaction of study sequence presentation mode and response assignment reveals the effects of multiple computational systems on an immediate visual recognition task
Authors: Glass Arnold L. , Wang Tingtao , Fu Allyson 
Published: February 2025

Abstract
Participants responded whether a single digit was in the immediately preceding digit sequence by pressing one of two keys as rapidly as possible while trying to avoid errors. Each participant performed four different kinds of sessions: Either all of the digits of the study sequence were presented in the same position or the digits were presented in successive positions from left to right. Either the same response was assigned to the right key and the different response to the left key or vice versa. Response time (RT) was an increasing function of the length of the study sequence. RT was an increasing function of the target’s position in the study sequence when the different response was assigned to the right key. When the same response was assigned to the right key, RT was a decreasing function of the target’s position in the study sequence when the study sequence had been presented in one location but there was no effect of target position on RT when the study sequence had been presented from left to right. The effects of study sequence length and target position were independent in the three conditions in which there was an effect of target position. Also, RT decreased for targets that had previously appeared as test items but RT increased for lures that had previously appeared as test items. The results confirm a dual-system hypothesis of recognition involving both the perceived recency of the target and the retrieval of the previous context of the target.
Variations of Absolute Source Positions Determined from Quad-band VLBI Observations
Authors: Xu Ming Hui , Charlot Patrick 
Published: February 2025

Abstract
Active galactic nuclei (AGNs) observed with the very long baseline interferometry (VLBI) technique are used as fiducial references on the sky to precisely measure the shape and orientation of the Earth. Their positions form a celestial reference frame that plays an important role in both astronomy and geodesy. This study investigates the accuracy and stability of the positions of the AGNs that are measured by simultaneous VLBI observations at 3.3, 5.5, 6.6, and 10.5 GHz. Based on position time series from dedicated geodetic solutions, we characterize the observed source position variations and identify the possible factors causing such variations. We find that the primary contributor is source structure for sources above 20° decl., while the sensitivity of the observations to the decl. coordinate predominates for sources below 20° decl. The position time series are further explored to derive more realistic uncertainties for the quad-band positions. Significant position offsets with respect to the positions at 2.2/8.6 GHz are found for 15% of the sources. For 6% of the sources, the offsets are larger than 0.8 mas. The source structure may be divided into two parts: the invisible structure (within the beam size) and the visible structure (on larger scales). The latter causes closure delays enlarging postfit delay residuals in geodetic solutions, whereas the former causes source position changes. Such position changes will contribute significantly to the offsets between radio and optical positions. Overall, this work highlights the necessity to have a specific quad-band catalog for processing operational quad-band observations.
A Differentiable Binary Microlensing Model Using Adaptive Contour Integration Method
Authors: Ren 任 Haibin 海滨 , Zhu 祝 Wei 伟 
Published: February 2025

Abstract
We present microlux, which is a Jax-based code that can compute the binary microlensing light curve and its derivatives both efficiently and accurately. The key feature of microlux is the implementation of a modified version of the adaptive sampling algorithm that was originally proposed by V. Bozza to account for the finite-source effect most efficiently. The efficiency and accuracy of microlux have been verified across the relevant parameter space for binary microlensing. As a differentiable code, microlux makes it possible to apply gradient-based algorithms to the search and posterior estimation of the microlensing modeling. As an example, we use microlux to model a real microlensing event and infer the model posterior via both Fisher information matrix and Hamiltonian Monte Carlo, neither of which would have been possible without access to accurate model gradients.

Published: February 2025

Abstract
Accurately and swiftly predicting the parameters of brown dwarf atmospheres from observational spectra is crucial for understanding their atmospheric composition and guiding future follow-up observations. Here, we utilized convolutional neural networks (CNNs) as a high-performance deep learning algorithm, training them with synthetic spectra generated from Sonora–Bobcat cloudless and equilibrium model grids to infer effective temperatures (T
eff), surface gravities (

log

g

), carbon-to-oxygen ratios (C/O), and metallicities ([M/H]). The performance metric, or R
2 value (the coefficient of determination), of the trained CNNs in predicting T
eff,

log

g

, C/O, and [M/H] is 1.0, 1.0, 0.99, and 0.93 on both the training and test sets, respectively. We apply our trained CNN model on the three well-known T dwarf benchmarks, HD 3651B, GJ 570D, and Ross 458C. For HD 3651B and GJ 570D, we find that our predicted T
eff and

log

g

are in good agreement with some of the previous modeling studies from forward and retrieval approaches, but the [M/H] is underestimated up to ≈0.3 dex. For Ross 458C, our CNN model predicts the

log
g

accurately but tends to overestimate T
eff by ≈150 K and [M/H] by ≈1.0 dex compared to the previous modelings, which likely happens because our model grids lack disequilibrium chemistry and clouds. We also find that the C/O ratio tends to be higher than solar if not kept fixed. Concurrently, all modules and functions used to train, develop, and deploy the CNNs and process the spectra are consolidated into a Python PyPI package named TelescopeML, which is publicly available along with a thoroughly documented tutorial covering installation, deployment, and core concepts.
Sporadic E-like Topside Layer Driven by Wind Shear in the Martian Ionosphere

Abstract
Ionospheric plasma density disturbances significantly affect radio wave propagation, impacting communication and planetary exploration. At Earth, sporadic E layers (Es) are commonly observed. They are characterized by thin, high-density plasma structures in the E-region ionosphere, primarily formed by electromagnetic forces induced by horizontal wind shears. Similar sharp vertical electron density changes have also been observed in the topside of the Martian ionosphere by missions like Mars Global Surveyor, Mars Express, and Mars Atmosphere and Volatile EvolutioN. Recent studies suggest that such structures observed on Mars can be attributed to a sporadic E-like mechanism induced by magnetic shear, which can be referred to as Es-like structures. While wind shear theoretically contributes to such events, no observational evidence currently reports wind shear as an explanation for these density gradients on Mars. In this study, we report a novel observation of an Es-like topside layer in the Martian ionosphere, characterized by both density layer and rift (an abrupt depletion in density), where wind and magnetic shear are simultaneously observed. Statistical analysis of 305 orbits with wind speed observations revealed wind shear is observed in nine Es-like events, primarily occurring in strong crustal magnetic field regions. Simulations suggest that the observed rift and layer can be explained either by “wind shear” or by “wind and magnetic shear” under strong crustal magnetic field. This study provides new observations of Es-like events on Mars and serves as a credible candidate for the contribution of wind shear to the formation of an Es-like topside layer.
Fifteen Years of M31* X-Ray Variability and Flares
Authors: DiKerby Stephen , Zhang Shuo , Irwin Jimmy 
Published: February 2025

Abstract
We append an additional 15 yr (2009–2024) to the Chandra X-ray light curve of M31*, the supermassive black hole (SMBH) at the center of M31, the Andromeda galaxy. Extending and expanding on the work in Z. Li et al., we show that M31* has remained in an elevated X-ray state from 2006 through at least 2016 (when regular Chandra monitoring ceased) and likely through 2024, with the most recent observations still showing an elevated X-ray flux. We identify one moderate flare in 2013 where the other nuclear X-ray sources are in low-flux states, making that flare a valuable target for follow-up with multiwavelength and multimessenger archival data. We extract a mostly uncontaminated spectrum for M31* from this observation, showing that its X-ray properties are similar to those observed at Sgr A* in its quiescent state by Baganoff et al. Furthermore, we find no substantial change in the source’s hardness ratio in the 2006 and 2013 flares compared to the post-2006 elevated state, suggesting the these flares are increases in the regular X-ray emission mechanisms instead of entirely new emission modes. Our extended light curve for M31* provides valuable context for multimessenger or multiwavelength observations of nearby SMBHs.
The stoneflies (Plecoptera) of Arkansas: a checklist compiled from museum specimen data
Authors: Hart Lily , DeWalt Ralph , Hogan Phillip , Grubbs Scott , Burton David 
Published: February 2025

Stoneflies are well known as indicators of water quality. Their presence in running waters, glacial meltwaters, and large oligotrophic lakes is rapidly declining the world over. In the USA, states partner with the U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service to protect habitat and wildlife through the development of State Wildlife Action Plans (SWAPs). Plants and wildlife species often enter these SWAPs as Species in Greatest Conservation Need (SGCN). Arkansas currently lists nine stonefly species as SGCNs and has funded research on them through SWAP grants. However, these nine species were initially chosen based on the small amount of data from a few papers. A more comprehensive assessment using museum specimen data is necessary to assess completeness of sampling, the relative rarity and endemicity of species, temporal changes in distribution, and the conservation status of species in Arkansas. Herein, we publish a data paper and preliminary dataset comprised of specimen data primarily from the Illinois Natural History Survey Insect Collection, Canadian National Collection, Western Kentucky University, P. N. Hogan Personal Collection, and from existing literature sources. These data are made publicly available by the Global Biodiversity Information Facility (GBIF) to allow for comprehensive assessment of the Arkansas Plecoptera assemblage. More recent occurrence data are needed to accurately assess imperilment of Arkansas stonefly species; these data will be provided through targeted collecting, collaboration with others in Arkansas, and through investigation of additional museum collections.
This dataset includes &gt; 3,500 specimen records (ethanol vials or pins with or without catalog numbers) and accounts for 84 stonefly species in Arkansas, six more species than indicated in published records. Perlidae contributed 29 of these species followed distantly by Perlodidae (15), Capniidae (14), Taeniopterygidae (9), Leuctridae (7), Chloroperlidae (5), Nemouridae (4), and Pteronarcyidae (1). A species accumulation curve predicts that sampling of species is nearly complete with a Chao1 estimate of 88.0 ± 3.7 species. Our data demonstrate that 25 species are known from ≤ five records, suggesting that many more than the nine recognized stonefly SGCNs in Arkansas may meet standards for inclusion.
Décarboner l’industrie agroalimentaire : stratégies des petites et moyennes entreprises et soutiens publics en Grand Est
Authors: Petiot Ophélie 
Published: February 2025

Diminuer et limiter les émissions de dioxyde de carbone dans l’industrie agroalimentaire est un enjeu bien identifié en Grand Est, première région en nombre de projets industriels lauréats du dispositif « décarbonation de l’industrie » du plan de relance. Cet article analyse ce dispositif à l’égard des PME autonomes qui, bien qu’accessible en apparence, ne leur est pas prioritairement destiné. La méthodologie mixte de ce travail s’appuie sur la base de données « Les soutiens aux investissements industriels » et l’apport de 12 entretiens semi-directifs de dirigeants de PME. Elle permet d’établir que les financements se concentrent sur les établissements industriels plus émetteurs de CO2, de plus grande taille et que seules les PME accompagnées bénéficient du dispositif.
Le « réalisme de plateforme ». L’intelligence artificielle générative et l’essor du contenu visuel générique
Authors: Meyer Roland 
Published: February 2025

À chaque mise à jour, les modèles de génération d’image par IA tels que DALL-E et Midjourney promettent des représentations toujours plus « réalistes ». Comme le montre toutefois cet article, ce soi-disant « réalisme » trahit des biais favorisant des valeurs esthétiques et des préférences idéologiques liées à un public majoritairement blanc, occidental, masculin et issu de la classe moyenne, tout en étant intrinsèquement générique. Les images générées par l’IA sont produites à partir de milliards d’images existantes, filtrées au moyen de concepts linguistiques, adaptées aux normes des sociétés et optimisées pour les attentes des consommateurs. On nommera cet effet le « réalisme de plateforme » : une esthétique de second ordre reposant sur des images génériques. Cet article développe ce concept en replaçant l’esthétique picturale de l’IA générative au sein d’une histoire plus vaste du contenu visuel générique, en examinant son infrastructure au sein du capitalisme de plateforme contemporain et en esquissant ses possibles conséquences pour la culture visuelle numérique.
« La Secrétaire ». Travail et automatisation dans le cursus Generative Systems de Sonia Landy Sheridan
Authors: Balaschak Chris 
Published: February 2025

Projects: Sonia Landy Sheridan and Keith Smith, une exposition qui s’est tenue au Museum of Modern Art, à New York, en 1974, représentait l’œuvre la plus ambitieuse à avoir émergé du programme Generative Systems de Sheridan. Comme l’a déclaré Sheridan, l’objectif du Generative Systems, un programme universitaire de la School of the Art Institute of Chicago, était de « produire des idées à l’aide des technologies actuelles ». Les travaux de Sheridan et Smith exposés au MoMA, fruits d’une collaboration avec la société 3M, ont non seulement mis en évidence le potentiel créatif de la production d’images assistée par machine (en l’occurrence, le copieur Color-in-Color), mais ont également révélé une vérité fondamentale de l’économie postindustrielle : la précarité croissante de la subjectivité humaine.
[Chronic patient and a circular care-related prevention-treatment-rehabilitation model]
Authors: Giorgi Gianni 
Published: February 2025

The increase in the average life expectancy entails elderly and chronic patients as hospital users, often dependents and requiring recurrent hospitalizations. In this framework, an innovative model of care management is essential to ensure appropriateness and sustainability of health services. A highly specialized care-related prevention-treatmentrehabilitation approach in which pharmacological, surgical, physical and intellectual disability therapies coexist in a synergistic manner, is the answer to this new emerging need. It offers interdisciplinary care pathways facing both disease and disability recognized by severity through ICD and ICF. Measuring functional status related quality of life is a main outcome to be primarily pursued for complicated chronic patients. The implementation of "need-adapted" pathways agreed within multidisciplinary teams is the key feature of this new clinical model that can take advantage of data mining tools combining medical know-how and diagnostic information.
[Remote functional assessment after anterior cruciate ligament reconstruction in amateur sportsmen with sedentary work]
Authors: Di Natali Giuseppe , Carlisi Ettore , Marin Luca , Tinelli Carmine , Lisi Claudio 
Published: February 2025

The anterior cruciate ligament (ACL) is the most commonly injured knee ligament. Currently there are two commonly used surgical procedures: middle third patellar tendon grafts (bone-patellar tendon-bone: BTB) and semitendinosus autografts or semitendinosus combined with gracilis tendon autografts (ST/G).Purpose. The aim of this study is to compare the rehabilitation results over time of amateur sportsmen who have undergone anterior cruciate ligament (ACL) reconstruction surgery by means of one of the two most commonly used procedures: middle third patellar tendon grafts (bone-patellar tendon-bone: BTB) and semitendinosus and gracilis tendon autografts (ST/G). Method. 30 subjects divided into two groups, (15 BTB and 15 ST / G), were evaluated during rehabilitation and at three follow-up periods (16 weeks, 24 weeks, 2 years). Evaluation involved clinical examination, isokinetic tests, and functional rating scales: Lysholm and IKDC.Results. The clinical evaluation resulted in the following mean values: the value of the Lysholm score was 78 in both group at 16 weeks, 91 in group A and 94 in group B at 24 weeks, 98 in group A and 99 in group B at 2 years; the value of the IKDC score was 14 in group A and 15 in group B at 16 weeks, 12 in group A and 14 in group B at 24 weeks, 14 in group A and 15 in group B at 2 years. No major complications occurred during rehabilatation Conclusions. Subjects in both groups showed good neoligament stability up to the 24-week follow up. At the 2-year follow-up the subjects of group B showed poor neoligament stability that prevented the return to the previous level of sporting activity; all the subjects with high intensity sports activity needed a greater muscle strengthening. No statistically significant differences between the two groups are seen.
Cutaneous Manifestations of Obesity in the Pediatric Age Group: A Narrative Review
Authors: Rout Arpita Nibedita , Das Anupam 
Published: February 2025

Abstract
Obesity is usually associated with a multitude of systemic effects such as increased risk of hypertension, dyslipidemia, and glucose intolerance. Insulin resistance and latent chronic inflammation can lead to cutaneous and systemic effects. We performed a comprehensive English language literature search across multiple databases for keywords (alone or in combination). Both Medical Subject Headings (MeSH) and non-MeSH terms such as “childhood obesity,” “pediatric obesity,” “cutaneous manifestations,” “skin manifestations,” and “dermatological features” were used. In the last few decades, the proportion of overweight and obese children has increased markedly worldwide. Obesity can cause or worsen a wide range of dermatological conditions, such as acanthosis nigricans, skin tags (acrochordons), hirsutism, striae distensae (stretch marks), acne vulgaris, hidradenitis suppurativa, intertrigo, psoriasis, atopic dermatitis, chronic venous insufficiency, and plantar callosities. Dermatologists, pediatricians, and family physicians should be aware of these features for prompt diagnosis, prevention, and management.
Epidermolysis Bullosa in Asian Children: Our Current Stand and Challenges in Resource-limited Settings
Authors: Albela Henrietta , Leong Kin Fon 
Published: February 2025

Abstract
Epidermolysis bullosa (EB) is a group of genetic disorders characterized by skin fragility and blistering. The clinical manifestations of EB are heterogeneous with varying severity depending on the subtype. The most recent reclassification focuses more on the molecular etiology, with the classical types of EB, namely EB simplex, junctional EB, dystrophic EB and Kindler EB as the four major groups, with further subtyping based on genetic mutation and targeted proteins. However, molecular diagnosis can be difficult in resource-limited settings where genetic testing may not be easily available or too costly. Diagnosis of EB in these communities is still primarily based on clinical findings, with a paucity of large epidemiological studies, making it difficult to determine the incidence of each of the subtypes of EB among our population. General supportive management, especially skin and wound care, remains the cornerstone of treating patients with EB. Emerging therapies targeting specific genes, cells, or proteins are promising with possible curative options in the future.
Nonfasting Diabetes in Pregnancy Study Group of India versus Fasting Oral Glucose Tolerance Test for Gestational Diabetes Mellitus – Our Experience
Authors: Chawla Sushil , Narayan Shankar , Agrawal Antara 
Published: February 2025

Abstract

Introduction:
Gestational diabetes mellitus (GDM) has a prevalence of as high as 20% in different countries of the world. The condition is being diagnosed using different screening methods and guidelines issued by various societies across the world. Diabetes in Pregnancy Study Group of India (DIPSI) test has been used in our country and is also part of the guidelines issued by the MOHFW. This comparative study was conducted to compare the DIPSI test with standard fasting 75 g 2-h OGTT (International Association of Diabetes and Pregnancy Study Group [IADPSG]) in the diagnosis of GDM.

Materials and Methods:
A comparative control trial was done at a tertiary care center involving 1000 women (500 in each group). The pregnant women were screened for GDM twice during the pregnancy at the first visit (<15 weeks pregnancy) to the ANC clinic and if required second screening was done at 24–28 weeks of pregnancy. The data were collected, and the results were analyzed using MS Excel.

Results:
The overall prevalence of GDM in our study was 21.4%. The prevalence of GDM in the DIPSI group was the same as GDM in women screened with IADPSG criteria.

Conclusion:
In our study, DIPSI and IADPSG criteria were found to be equally good in the diagnosis of GDM.
