Authors: König Lars , Hamer Tim , Suhr Ralf 
Published: October 2023

Zusammenfassung
Hintergrund
Die Förderung der psychischen Gesundheitskompetenz könnte helfen, die psychische Gesundheit der Bevölkerung zu stärken und psychischen Erkrankungen entgegenzuwirken. Die vorliegende Studie untersucht die psychische Gesundheitskompetenz der Bevölkerung in Deutschland anhand einer bevölkerungsrepräsentativen Stichprobe.

Methoden
Neben der psychischen Gesundheitskompetenz wurden die physische und psychische Gesundheit, die Lebenszufriedenheit sowie das Gesundheitsverhalten erfasst. Es wurden Subgruppenvergleiche durchgeführt und Zusammenhänge zwischen psychischer Gesundheitskompetenz und gesundheitsrelevanter Konstrukte untersucht.

Ergebnisse
Insbesondere Männer, Personen jungen und mittleren Alters sowie Personen mit einem niedrigen und mittleren Sozialstatus könnten von Interventionsangeboten zur Förderung der psychischen Gesundheitskompetenz profitieren. Zudem sollten Personen adressiert werden, die selbst bisher nicht wegen psychischen Erkrankungen behandelt wurden. Eine höhere psychische Gesundheitskompetenz ging schwach mit einer höheren Lebenszufriedenheit, einem besseren psychischen Gesundheitszustand und einem überwiegend förderlicheren Gesundheitsverhalten einher.

Schlussfolgerung
Gerade vulnerable Personengruppen sollten bei der Entwicklung von Interventionsangeboten zur Förderung der psychischen Gesundheitskompetenz adressiert werden.

AbstractPurposeTo investigate the dose stability of craniospinal irradiation based on irradiation method of proton beam therapy (PBT).Methods and materialsTwenty-four pediatric and young adult brain tumor patients (age: 1–24 years) were examined. Treatment method was passive-scattered PBT (PSPT) in 8 patients and intensity-modulated PBT (IMPT) in 16 patients. The whole vertebral body (WVB) technique was used in 13 patients whose ages were younger than 10, and vertebral body sparing (VBS) technique was used for the remaining 11 patients aged 10 and above. Dose stability of planning target volume (PTV) against set-up error was investigated.ResultsThe minimum dose (Dmin) of IMPT was higher than that of PSPT (p = 0.01). Inhomogeneity index (INH) of IMPT was lower than that of PSPT (p = 0.004). When the irradiation field of the cervical spinal cord level (C level) was shifted, the maximum dose (Dmax) was lower in IMPT, and mean dose (Dmean) was higher than PSPT as movement became greater to the cranial–caudal direction (p = 0.000–0.043).Dminwas higher and INH was lower in IMPT in all directions (p = 0.000–0.034). When the irradiation field of the lumber spinal cord level (L level) was shifted,Dmaxwas lower in IMPT as movement became greater to the cranial direction (p = 0.000–0.028).Dminwas higher and INH was lower in IMPT in all directions (p = 0.000–0.022).ConclusionsThe PTV doses of IMPT and PSPT are robust and stable in both anterior–posterior and lateral directions at both C level and L level, but IMPT is more robust and stable than PSPT for cranial–caudal movements.Trial registryClinical Trial Registration number: No. 04-03.

Published: October 2023

AbstractThe management of ischaemic stroke survivors is multidisciplinary, necessitating the collaboration of numerous medical professionals and rehabilitation specialists. However, due to the lack of comprehensive and holistic follow-up, their post-discharge management may be suboptimal. Achieving this holistic, patient-centred follow-up requires coordination and interaction of subspecialties, which general practitioners can provide as the first point of contact in healthcare systems. This approach can improve the management of stroke survivors by preventing recurrent stroke through an integrated post-stroke care, including appropriate Antithrombotic therapy, assisting them to have a Better functional and physiological status, early recognition and intervention of Comorbidities, and lifestyles. For such work to succeed, close interdisciplinary collaboration between primary care physicians and other medical specialists is required in a holistic or integrated way.
Tensile Mechanical Behaviors of Re-entrant and Kelvin Cell Lattice Structures
Authors: Hu Qifang , Lu Guoxing , Tse Kwong Ming 
Published: October 2023

AbstractPeriodic lattice structures as lightweight and high-energy absorption materials have been widely used in various fields, among which re-entrant and Kelvin cell lattice structures have exhibited excellent mechanical behaviors under different loadings. Therefore, this study aims to numerically explore and compare the tensile mechanical responses of re-entrant and Kelvin cell lattice structures with the same relative density after validating with experimental tests. It has been found that the tensile behavior of the two stretching-dominated lattice structures resemble that of parent solid material but had smaller fracture stress and strain due to the lower ductility of the lattice structures. The re-entrant lattice structure displayed a better energy absorption capacity than the Kelvin cell lattice under tensile loading, i.e., the energy absorption and specific energy absorption of the re-entrant lattice were 3 times and 1.6 times, respectively, those of the Kelvin cell lattice. Meanwhile, the re-entrant lattice as expected exhibited auxetic behavior with a negative Poisson’s ratio during the whole stretching process, while the Kelvin cell had the mechanical behaviors of traditional materials with a relatively constant positive Poisson’s ratio. These results are expected to provide hints on mechanical references and guidance for their extensive applications in the future.

AbstractBackgroundThe biological function of YKL-40 is not well determined in different inflammatory and autoimmune diseases; however, some data highlighted its possible connection with disease activity.AimWe investigated the diagnostic utility of serum YKL-40 in patients with SLE and examined its correlation with disease activity. Additionally, we examined any differences in serum YKL-40 levels between juvenile and adult SLE patients.MethodsWe included 78 female patients with SLE and 42 controls. The level of YKL-40 in serum was measured by ELISA.ResultsThe serum YKL-40 level in SLE patients was significantly higher compared to the control group (9 (3) ng/mL vs. 5.5 (0.1) ng/mL;p < 0.001). YKL-40 showed excellent diagnostic utility with an AUC of 1 (p < 0.001) and a cutoff point of 5.6, providing sensitivity and specificity of 100%. YKL-40 was higher in adolescents and those with a positive family history of SLE (p = 0.01 for both) and positively correlated with disease duration (r = 0.45,p < 0.001). YKL-40 level was significantly higher in patients with photosensitivity, fever, vasculitis, blood disorders, positive anti-dsDNA, and APL ab (p < 0.05 for all). Conversely, patients with skin manifestations had a significantly lower YKL-40 (p = 0.004). In juvenile SLE, the AUC was 0.65 and ap-value of 0.01, and at a cutoff value of (8.7) ng/mL, the sensitivity and specificity were 72% and 60%, respectively.ConclusionYKL-40 in serum could be a promising biomarker in patients with SLE, especially in adolescent-onset cases. It is independently influenced by disease duration, anemia, thrombocytopenia, positive anti-dsDNA, and APL ab features.

Published: October 2023

AbstractThis article puts a perspective to the health risks of smoke from lithium-ion battery (LIB) fires by retrospect simulations of the large-scale event in a warehouse in Morris, IL, USA where about 60 metric tonnes of LIB set on fire on of June 29, 2021. Possible scenarios are sketched where ground concentration maps of PM2.5 reveal large areas of tens of square kilometres exceeding the action levels set up by the authorities for the event. Besides high concentration in the close vicinity, the plume touchdown is found to be located 5–10 km away from the source. In contrast, irritant gases including HF did not exceed the action levels. The reconstruction of the event was conducted using details from interviews with the owner and first-responders on site, which subsequently was used as input data to a Lagrangian atmospheric transport model. Plume rise due to buoyant flux in a Lagrangian dispersion model was accomplished by adding a vertical speed component derived from discretization of the well-known Briggs formulation. Emission factors were collected from the published scientific literature and implemented in combination with warehouse inventory and visual observations. The importance of this work becomes apparent in view of the rapid increase of LIB’s in, e.g., transportation and energy storage with accompanied fire accidents. These findings support precautions in infrastructure handling LIBs and particularly in large amounts.
What Is New in Cutaneous T Cell Lymphoma?

Published: October 2023

Abstract
Purpose of Review
This review focuses on updates in prognosis, pathogenesis, and treatment of cutaneous T cell lymphoma (CTCL).

Recent Findings
Cohort studies indicate imaging may be necessary in early-stage CTCL. Risk factors for progression of CTCL have been identified. Interactions between malignant cells and the tumor microenvironment (TME) and the skin microbiome advance the understanding of pathogenesis and tumor cell dissemination. Studies support a hypothesis of circulating malignant tumor cells. MicroRNA (miR) influence tumor progression and prognosis; the IL22-STAT3-CCL20 cascade may be a novel target. IL-4, IL-5, and IL-31 cytokines are relevant for pruritus and could be targets for therapeutic interventions. Systemic therapies, such as JAK inhibitors, targeted antibodies, and checkpoint inhibitors, show promise in advanced stages. Allogenic hematopoietic stem cell transplantation provides a potential curative option for patients.

Summary
Further investigations of prognosis and translational research are necessary to improve stratification of patients for treatment.
Smooth Maps Minimizing the Energy and the Calibrated Geometry
Authors: Hattori Kota 
Published: October 2023

AbstractWe generalize the notion of calibrated submanifolds to smooth maps and show that several kinds of smooth maps appearing in the differential geometry are applicable to our situation. Moreover, we apply this notion to give the lower bound to some energy functionals of smooth maps in the given homotopy class between Riemannian manifolds and consider the energy functional which is minimized by the identity maps on the Riemannian manifolds with special holonomy groups.

Published: October 2023

Abstract
Background
Liver transplantation is the main treatment for cholestatic liver disease and some metabolic liver diseases in children. However, no accurate prediction model to determine the survival probability of grafts prior to surgery exists. This study aimed to develop an effective prognostic model for allograft survival after pediatric liver transplantation.

Methods
This retrospective cohort study included 2032 patients who underwent pediatric liver transplantation between January 1, 2006, and January 1, 2020. A nomogram was developed using Cox regression and validated based on bootstrap sampling. Predictive and discriminatory accuracies were determined using the concordance index and visualized using calibration curves; net benefits were calculated for model comparison. An online Shiny application was developed for easy access to the model.

Results
Multivariable analysis demonstrated that preoperative diagnosis, recipient age, body weight, graft type, preoperative total bilirubin, interleukin-1β, portal venous blood flow direction, spleen thickness, and the presence of heart disease and cholangitis were independent factors for survival, all of which were selected in the nomogram. Calibration of the nomogram indicated that the 1-, 3-, and 5-year predicted survival rates agreed with the actual survival rate. The concordance indices for graft survival at 1, 3, and 5 years were 0.776, 0.757, and 0.753, respectively, which were significantly higher than those of the Pediatric End-Stage Liver Disease and Child–Pugh scoring systems. The allograft dysfunction risk of a recipient could be easily predicted using the following URL: https://aspelt.shinyapps.io/ASPELT//

Conclusion
The allograft survival after pediatric liver transplantation (ASPELT) score model can effectively predict the graft survival rate after liver transplantation in children, providing a simple and convenient evaluation method for clinicians and patients.
Physiological parameters extraction by contactless accelerometric signal analysis during sleep
Authors: Gambi Ennio , Senigagliesi Linda , Ricciuti Manola 
Published: October 2023

AbstractSince sleep problems, like sleep apnea, may pose a serious health concern, the quality of a person’s sleep is a good indicator of overall wellbeing. It is then crucial to continuously monitor people when they are sleeping, especially if they have cardiac or respiratory conditions. The goal of the present paper is to show how to extract physiological parameters from accelerometric signal processing during sleep by applying a non-invasive technology. Using an accelerometric device located under the mattress, we demonstrated the possibility of extracting heart rate and respiratory rate, and then how to use the same signal to implement an automatic algorithm to recognize apneas and, more generally, different activities. The proposed automatic approach has shown good accuracy and dependability, and it may be a useful tool for preventing significant harm during sleep.

Authors: Maeda Ryosuke , Maruyama Takuya 
Published: October 2023

AbstractExamining empty truck behavior can be beneficial in developing an efficient and environmentally friendly logistics system. This study used probe vehicle data from April 2019 to March 2020 in Kyushu, Japan, to explore empty truck behavior. The results revealed a difference in the empty truck ratio across the day of the week, time of the day, and month and the trip distribution of empty and loaded trucks. A nonhierarchical cluster analysis was used to classify vehicles based on empty/loaded situations. These results can be potentially used to reduce the number of empty trucks and improve the efficiency of logistics systems.
Efficiency and fairness trade-offs in two player bargaining games
Authors: Freeborn David 
Published: October 2023

AbstractRecent work on the evolution of social contracts and conventions has often used models of bargaining games, with reinforcement learning. A recent innovation is the requirement that every strategy must be invented either through through learning or reinforcement. However, agents frequently get stuck in highly-reinforced “traps” that prevent them from arriving at outcomes that are efficient or fair to the both players. Agents face a trade-off between exploration and exploitation, i.e. between continuing to invent new strategies and reinforcing strategies that have already become highly reinforced by yielding high rewards. In this paper I systematically study the relationship between rates of invention and the efficiency and fairness of outcomes in two-player, repeated bargaining games. I use a basic reinforcement learning model with invention, and five variations of this model, designed introduce various forms of forgetting, to prioritize more recent reinforcement, or to maintain a higher rate of invention. I use computer simulations to investigate the outcomes of each model. Each models shows qualitative similarities in the relationship between the efficiency and fairness of outcomes, and the relative amount of exploration or exploitation that takes place. Surprisingly, there are often trade-offs between the efficiency and the fairness of the outcomes.

Published: October 2023

AbstractFloods are produced as a result of several factors such as human-induced land-use changes, topographic conditions, and climate change. This study aimed to assess flood risk using geographic information system-based multi-criteria evaluation techniques in the Wabi Shebele River Sub-basin. Six parameters, namely, soil type, slope, land use and land cover, proximity to rivers, rainfall, and elevation, were used. The eigenvector of weight for each factor was computed in IDRISI Selva 17.0. Results show that the study area was subjected to a very high 527.31 km2 (9.42%), high 2133.66 km2 (38.12%), moderate 1906.44 km2 (34.06%), low 847.35 km2 (15.14%), and a very low 182.54 km2 (3.26%) flood risk, respectively. Results reveal that the Wabi Shebele River Sub-basin is highly vulnerable to flooding. This study assists policymakers with regard to land-use planning. To reduce the effects of flood risk, integrated watershed management must be implemented in the study area.
Optimal path planning for directional wells across flow units’ many-targets

Published: October 2023

AbstractOver the past decades, directional drilling has continuously advanced to increase hydrocarbon recovery by effectively targeting high-productivity reservoirs. However, many existing approaches primarily focus on heuristic optimization algorithms. Moreover, existing models often neglect the incorporation of petrophysical attributes that can significantly impact the selection of production targets, such as the reservoir quality indicator. This article introduces a novel application of mixed-integer programming to define directional drilling paths, considering practical aspects of interest. The paths are subject to drift angle constraints and reference coordinates that align with the optimal reservoir targets. Such targets are identified using the authors’ proposed technique of maximum closeness centrality and the geologic model of hydraulic flow units. In order to evaluate the effectiveness of this approach, a realistic model of the Campos Basin in Brazil is studied. The results reveal that the highest recovery factors obtained with the proposed methodology (17%) exceed the historical average recovery factor of the studied reservoir (15.66%). We believe this study can contribute to the ongoing efforts to enhance directional drilling and maximize the production potential of offshore oil and gas reservoirs.

AbstractBackgroundInfection-associated secondary hemophagocytic lymphohistiocytosis (sHLH) is a potentially life-threatening hyperinflammatory condition caused by various infectious diseases. Malaria has rarely been described as trigger. The aim of this study is to collect data on frequency, clinical spectrum, and outcome of sHLH induced by malaria.MethodsWe collected case numbers on malaria and malaria-associated sHLH from specialized centers in Germany from 2015 to 2022. In addition, we conducted a literature search on published cases of malaria-associated sHLH and systematically analyzed the literature regarding clinical and diagnostic criteria.ResultsWe obtained data from 13 centers treating 1461 malaria cases with differentPlasmodiumspecies, of which 5 patients (0.34%) also were diagnosed with sHLH. The literature search revealed detailed case reports from further 51 patients and case series comprising the description of further 24 patients with malaria-associated sHLH. Most cases (48/80; 60%) were reported from Asia. The median time interval between onset of malaria symptoms and hospital admission was 7 days. Severe complications of sHLH were documented in 36% (20/56) of patients, including two patients with multiple organ failure in our case series. Only 41% (23/56) of patients received specific treatment for sHLH, nevertheless the mortality rate (CFR) of 5% is lower compared to the CFR reported for sHLH triggered by other infectious diseases (e.g., 25% in sHLH due to EBV infection).ConclusionMalaria-associated sHLH appears to have a comparatively good prognosis but may still represent an underdiagnosed and potentially fatal complication of malaria, especially in resource-poor settings.

AbstractThe practical application of Li metal anodes (LMAs) is limited by uncontrolled dendrite growth and side reactions. Herein, we propose a new friction-induced strategy to produce high-performance thin Li anode (Li@CFO). By virtue of the in situ friction reaction between fluoropolymer grease and Li strips during rolling, a robust organic/inorganic hybrid interlayer (lithiophilic LiF/LiC6 framework hybridized -CF2-O-CF2- chains) was formed atop Li metal. The derived interface contributes to reversible Li plating/stripping behaviors by mitigating side reactions and decreasing the solvation degree at the interface. The Li@CFO||Li@CFO symmetrical cell exhibits a remarkable lifespan for 5,600 h (1.0 mA cm−2 and 1.0 mAh cm−2) and 1,350 cycles even at a harsh condition (18.0 mA cm−2 and 3.0 mAh cm−2). When paired with high-loading LiFePO4 cathodes, the full cell lasts over 450 cycles at 1C with a high-capacity retention of 99.9%. This work provides a new friction-induced strategy for producing high-performance thin LMAs.
