Published: April 2024

Abstract
Background
To investigate the potential of combining compressed sensing (CS) and artificial intelligence (AI), in particular deep learning (DL), for accelerating three-dimensional (3D) magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) sequences of the knee.

Methods
Twenty healthy volunteers were examined using a 3-T scanner with a fat-saturated 3D proton density sequence with four different acceleration levels (10, 13, 15, and 17). All sequences were accelerated with CS and reconstructed using the conventional and a new DL-based algorithm (CS-AI). Subjective image quality was evaluated by two blinded readers using seven criteria on a 5-point-Likert-scale (overall impression, artifacts, delineation of the anterior cruciate ligament, posterior cruciate ligament, menisci, cartilage, and bone). Using mixed models, all CS-AI sequences were compared to the clinical standard (sense sequence with an acceleration factor of 2) and CS sequences with the same acceleration factor.

Results
3D sequences reconstructed with CS-AI achieved significantly better values for subjective image quality compared to sequences reconstructed with CS with the same acceleration factor (p ≤ 0.001). The images reconstructed with CS-AI showed that tenfold acceleration may be feasible without significant loss of quality when compared to the reference sequence (p ≥ 0.999).

Conclusions
For 3-T 3D-MRI of the knee, a DL-based algorithm allowed for additional acceleration of acquisition times compared to the conventional approach. This study, however, is limited by its small sample size and inclusion of only healthy volunteers, indicating the need for further research with a more diverse and larger sample.

Trial registration
DRKS00024156.

Relevance statement
Using a DL-based algorithm, 54% faster image acquisition (178 s versus 384 s) for 3D-sequences may be possible for 3-T MRI of the knee.

Key points
• Combination of compressed sensing and DL improved image quality and allows for significant acceleration of 3D knee MRI.
• DL-based algorithm achieved better subjective image quality than conventional compressed sensing.
• For 3D knee MRI at 3 T, 54% faster image acquisition may be possible.

Abstract
Background
Endovascular treatment of the wide-necked aneurysm is still challenging. Temporary stent-assisted coiling (TSAC) was introduced to manage the ruptured wide-necked aneurysms to avoid the long-term use of dual antiplatelets as well as improving aneurysm filling with coils.

Case presentation
Here, we reported a case of the coil entrapment into the stent device during TSAC for the treatment of a wide-necked large ruptured aneurysm. Patient presented with loss of consciousness following diffuse subarachnoid hemorrhage due to a wide-necked large aneurysm located in the left ICA bifurcation. During treatment of aneurysm with TSAC technique, the stent could not retrieve and re-sheath because of coil entrapment in the stent struts. Consequently, the stent was released by cutting the pushing wire at the puncture site.

Conclusion
Entrapment of coils in the stent struts is a very rare technical complication of TSAC method. It is essential to be aware of this side effect and how to avoid.

CUSTOMS RECOGNITIONS AS A SOURCE FOR STUDYING THE HISTORY OF KAMIENIEC ARMENIANS IN THE SECOND HALF OF THE 16TH CENTURY
Armenians were among the constituent ethnic groups in the society of the Kingdom of Poland and the Grand Duchy of Lithuania. Actively participating in trade, they were subject to legal regulations in as much as other urban citizens. Customs recognitions, or testimonies given by merchants enjoying customs freedom, serve as evidence of this process. The article analyzes the overall trade activities of Armenians from Kamieniec Podolski [Kamianets-Podilskyi] at Lublin fairs based on these recognitions. On their basis, it discusses the significance of customs exemptions as one of the privileges of Kamieniec residents, as well as the intensity of trade relations between this city and Lublin, and the range of goods exchanged. Additionally, it addresses the Armenians’ knowledge of legal practices and their ability to use the Polish and Ruthenian languages. An annex includes the edition of customs recognitions, which are an interesting source for studying economic history, diplomatics, and sigillography.

Model for partitioning the non-phytoplankton absorption coefficient of seawater in the ultraviolet and visible spectral range into the contributions of non-algal particulate and dissolved organic matter
Authors: Kehrli Matthew D. , Stramski Dariusz , Reynolds Rick A. , Joshi Ishan D. 
Published: April 2024

Non-algal particles and chromophoric dissolved organic matter (CDOM)
are two major classes of seawater constituents that contribute
substantially to light absorption in the ocean within the ultraviolet
(UV) and visible (VIS) spectral regions. The similarities in the
spectral shape of these two constituent absorption coefficients, ad(λ) and ag(λ), respectively, have led to their
common estimation as a single combined non-phytoplankton absorption
coefficient, adg(λ), in optical remote-sensing
applications. Given the different biogeochemical and ecological roles
of non-algal particles and CDOM in the ocean, it is important to
determine and characterize the absorption coefficient of each of these
constituents separately. We describe an ADG model that partitions adg(λ) into ad(λ) and ag(λ). This model improves upon a recently
published model [Appl. Opt. 58, 3790
(2019)APOPAI0003-693510.1364/AO.58.003790] through
implementation of a newly assembled dataset of hyperspectral
measurements of ad(λ) and ag(λ) from diverse oceanic environments to
create the spectral shape function libraries of these coefficients, a
better characterization of variability in spectral shape of ad(λ) and ag(λ), and a spectral extension of model
output to include the near-UV (350–400 nm) in addition
to the VIS (400–700 nm) part of the spectrum. We
developed and tested two variants of the ADG model: the ADG_UV-VIS
model, which determines solutions over the spectral range from 350 to
700 nm, and the ADG_VIS model, which determines solutions in
the VIS but can also be coupled with an independent extrapolation
model to extend output to the near-UV. This specific model variant is
referred to as ADG_VIS-UVExt. Evaluation of the model with
development and independent datasets demonstrates good performance of
both ADG_UV-VIS and ADG_VIS-UVExt. Comparative analysis of
model-derived and measured values of ad(λ) and ag(λ) indicates negligible or small median
bias, generally within ±5% over the majority of the
350–700 nm spectral range but extending to or above 10%
near the ends of the spectrum, and the median percent difference
generally below 20% with a maximum reaching about 30%. The presented
ADG models are suitable for implementation as a component of
algorithms in support of satellite ocean color missions, especially
the NASA PACE mission.
Experimental and numerical investigations of multi-layered ship engine room bulkhead insulation thermal performance under fire conditions
Authors: Pham Thanh-Nhut , Le Quoc Tien , Do Quang Thang 
Published: April 2024

Abstract
The thermal insulation layer of the ship’s engine room bulkhead is typically constructed from multiple layers of mineral wool. This layer is designed to keep the temperature on the surface of the bulkhead below 140°C in case of a fire. However, measuring the inner and external temperatures of each wall panel bulkhead type during a fire can be difficult. To address this issue, this study was conducted to evaluate the multilayer heat transfer capability of the bulkhead insulation in the event of an engine room fire. The study used heat transfer theory, experimental models, and numerical analysis to assess nine bulkhead insulation specimens. These specimens were fabricated from three original specimens and included a 10–30 mm air layer (W-75, W-50, and W-25). The results showed that all improved specimens had better thermal insulation than the originals. Among them, the improved specimens derived from the W-25 specimen exhibited the most significant temperature reduction compared to those derived from the W-75 and W-50 specimens. The results demonstrated a slight difference between the three methodologies, indicating a high level of reliability in the research findings.

Published: April 2024

Abstract
The study aims to explore how students perceive the use of interactive computer simulations (ICS). The mixed-method approach under a converging design was employed to collect quantitative and qualitative data. A sample of 160 participants were purposively selected. The questionnaire consisted of four sections, including Behavioral Intention to Use, Attitude Toward Usage, Usefulness, and Perceived Ease of Use. The collected data was analyzed in MS Excel. 83 % of participants believed that their learning experience has improved and become easier. Moreover, a significant number of students 79 % expressed high perceptions towards the ease-of-use ICS in the teaching and learning process, and 77 % demonstrated a strong positive attitude towards the usage. Additionally, 76 % had a highly positive perception of their behavioral intention to use ICS in their chemistry learning. However, 39 % of students expressed low perceptions of ease of use of ICSs due to a lack of basic computer skills. In general, the findings show positive significance in students’ perceptions toward the use of ICSs in teaching and learning chemistry. The study recommends that ICSs should be used to supplement chemistry education.
The Principles of European Tort Law and Product Liability
Authors: Machnikowski Piotr 
Published: April 2024

Abstract
The authors of the Principles of European Tort Law (PETL) did not intend to regulate in detail the strict liability of a manufacturer for damage caused by a defect in its product. While creating general principles of liability for damage caused otherwise than by breach of an obligation, they had no need to refer to those problems for which uniform and detailed solutions already existed in the European Communities. Product liability was such a problem (the only one in the area of tort law, by the way).
Given the existence of the 1985 Product Liability Directive, there was no need to look for an answer to the issue of the victim’s claim against the producer in the PETL’s provisions on strict liability (art 5:101 PETL) or on fault-based undertaking liability (art 4:202 PETL).
However, the need for this has emerged in recent years. As technology and business models have developed, new possibilities of harm to users of products (in the broad sense of the latter term) and third parties have emerged, which seem to call for the liability of the manufacturer or commercial intermediaries. This liability, however, cannot be based on 1985 Product Liability Directive (PLD) provisions. The question therefore arises whether the Principles adopted in 2005 would be a sufficient foundation upon which such a liability rule could be built.
The article discusses some of these new damage scenarios and explains why neither the narrow approach to strict liability in PETL nor its fault-based enterprise liability rule yields satisfactory results in relation to them. It then outlines the current proposal for a new European product liability law, aiming to fill these liability gaps.
The PETL and Corporate Liability for Greenhouse Gas Emissions: Duties and Remedies
Authors: Castermans Alex Geert 
Published: April 2024

Abstract
How can tort law contribute to combatting climate change? The Principles of European Tort Law (PETL), in particular the framework of art 4:102 PETL, have already served as inspiration for a duty of care for both governments and companies, aimed at reducing greenhouse gas emissions. This is in line with the development of law in Europe, where liability for an insufficient contribution to combatting global warming is becoming increasingly concrete. The PETL, therefore, do not necessarily need to be amended on this point. However, the development could be strengthened in two ways. First, it is proposed to amend art 4:102(3) PETL, providing that the duty of care may be determined in part by reference to internationally recognised fundamental rights and international documents that constitute a breach of duty for companies. Secondly, making room in the PETL for injunctive relief would do justice to the need to take preventive measures, as, in climate cases, preventing global warming is more urgent than ex post compensation.
Chirped optical solitons for the complex Ginzburg–Landau equation with Hamiltonian perturbations and Kerr law nonlinearity
Authors: Tang Ming-Yue , Meng Tong-Yu 
Published: April 2024

Abstract
What the motivation of this paper is to provide chirped optical solitons for the complex Ginzburg–Landau equation with Hamiltonian perturbations and Kerr law nonlinearity. We get 19 exact chirped solutions by utilizing trial equation method and the complete discriminant system for polynomial method, which are richer than the solutions acquired in existing papers. We draw the two-dimensional graphs of amplitudes and corresponding chirps in order to verify the existence of the solutions and discuss the dynamical properties of the solutions. To our knowledge, this is the first time that comprehensive set of exact chirped solutions of the governing equation in the paper are obtained. The model and the results obtained in this paper may help explain some nonlinear problems.
Kingdom Come: Deliverance and the Aesthetics of Authenticity
Authors: Cook James 
Published: April 2024

Warhorse Studios’ award-winning action role-playing game Kingdom Come: Deliverance (2018) has—perhaps somewhat unkindly—been described as a “peasant simulator.” Nonetheless, “simulation” is a good description of the way in which its gameplay is conceived and framed, with a stated focus on historical accuracy and realism. This verisimilitude has been cited as having a noticeable cost in terms of accessibility for new players, with something of a steep learning curve required to master the game, but has also frequently been cited in positive reviews. The level of realism is indeed impressive. It extends not only to the need to eat, drink, and sleep, but also to the need to learn how to read (vernacular and Latin separately) if the player wishes to glean any information from written texts. But a focus on realism always brings with it challenges. The highly effective musical score of this game, written by Jan Valta and Adam Sporka, features an interactive and adaptive score, making use of a new engine developed specifically for the game called the Sequence Music Engine. There is already a neat tension here between the stated aim of historical fidelity and the modern expectation of an adaptive score; no preexistent “authentic” music can be used in this manner. As with all games, and indeed all screen media, composers and studios must work hard to balance authenticity to the medium and the genre with authenticity to the period. We expect fairly ubiquitous non-diegetic music in screen media—and its absence carries very particular semantics—but fifteenth-century Bohemia was conspicuous in its absence of invisible, itinerant symphony orchestras roaming its landscape.
This article focuses on the interplay between fantasy and “authenticity,” especially considering the ways in which the composers work creatively to give an immersive and coherent soundworld, within the limits of what I term an “aesthetic of authenticity.” It explores the creative interplay between the “real” historical environment and that which is understood to be real in the popular consciousness, as well as the interconnected web of demands set by the medium, the interactive and narrative genres, and the historical setting.

Published: April 2024

AbstractProsthetic joint infection (PJI) and aseptic loosening (AL) are common complications of total joint arthroplasty. An accumulation of evidence indicates the presence of microbial communities on prosthetic implants, but the overall microbial profile is unclear. In this study, we aimed to investigate the differences in the microbial composition of prosthetic implants obtained from PJI and AL patients using the 16S rRNA sequencing method. Patients who underwent revision hip, knee, or shoulder arthroplasty caused by PJI (n = 20) or AL (n = 10) were enrolled in the study. 16S rRNA sequencing targeting the V3–V4 region was performed on the microbial specimens collected from synovial fluid, periprosthetic deep-tissue, and biofilm during the revision surgery. The sequenced raw data were analysed for microbial composition and ecological and differential abundance analyses using bioinformatics tools. The AL group had relatively balanced and higher diversity, with Staphylococcus, Streptococcus, and Veillonella being prominent. In the PJI group, Staphylococcus and Pseudomonas were predominant, especially in deep-tissue samples and biofilm samples, respectively. The differential abundance analysis identified 15 and 2 distinctive taxa in the AL and PJI groups, respectively. Our findings provided preliminary insights supporting the existence of periprosthetic microbiota in orthopedic implants and explaining the differences in microbial composition between the AL and PJI groups.
