Background
The optimal blood pressure management strategy in patients undergoing endovascular therapy for acute ischemic stroke is unknown. This pilot study aimed to assess the feasibility of a standard versus individualized blood pressure management strategy during endovascular therapy.

Methods
This randomized controlled pilot trial included adult patients with acute ischemic stroke with large‐vessel occlusion in the anterior circulation undergoing endovascular therapy. Patients were randomized to either standard (mean arterial blood pressure [MABP] targeted between 70 and 90 mm Hg) or individualized (MABP targeted ±10% of a baseline value measured in the neurointerventional suite) blood pressure targets until reperfusion or removal of groin sheath. The main outcome was the modified Rankin Scale score at 90 days. Secondary outcomes included feasibility outcomes, 90‐day dichotomized modified Rankin Scale score (0–2 versus 3–6), and reperfusion rates.

Results

Between April 2021 and February 2022, 60 patients (median [interquartile range] age, 76 [66–84] years) were randomly assigned to standard (n=30) or individualized (n=30) blood pressure targets. Median (interquartile range) National institutes of Health Stroke Scale score was 15 (10–18). Mean (SD) MABP, mean (SD) systolic blood pressure, and median (interquartile range) cardiac output were significantly higher in the individualized group compared with the standard group (MABP: 94 [9] versus 88 [9] mm Hg;
P
=0.012; systolic blood pressure: 149 [21] versus 139 [17] mm Hg;
P
=0.032; and cardiac output: 5.82 [4.22–7.23] versus 4.35 [3.73–5.1] L/min;
P
=0.02). The odds ratio for improved outcome in the individualized group was 1.37 (95% CI, 0.56–3.36). The relative risk for improved dichotomized outcome in the individualized group was 1.31 (95% CI, 0.87–1.98). Full reperfusion rates were comparable between the standard and individualized groups (90% versus 93%;
P
=0.64). The median percentage of time outside the MABP targets was 54.3% in the standard group versus 61.4% in the individual group (
P
=0.30) and did not meet the feasibility target. Recruitment rate, data completeness, and safety were within feasibility limits.

Conclusions
The feasibility criteria were not met in this study because of difficulties in achieving the desired blood pressure targets. These findings do not support continuing with a large trial using the current protocol.
Cerebellar Neuromodulation Impacts Reading Fluency in Young Adults
Authors: Lee Marissa M. , McGrath Lauren M. , Stoodley Catherine J. 
Published: October 2023

Abstract
The cerebellum is traditionally associated with the control of coordinated movement, but ample evidence suggests that the cerebellum also supports cognitive processing. Consistent with this, right-lateralized posterolateral cerebellar regions are engaged during a range of reading and reading-related tasks, but the specific role of the cerebellum during reading tasks is not clear. Based on the cerebellar contribution to automatizing movement, it has been hypothesized that the cerebellum is specifically involved in rapid, fluent reading. We aimed to determine whether the right posterolateral cerebellum is a specific modulator of reading fluency or whether cerebellar modulation is broader, also impacting reading accuracy, rapid automatized naming, and general processing speed. To do this, we examined the effect of transcranial direct current stimulation (tDCS) targeting the right posterolateral cerebellum (lobules VI/VII) on single-word reading fluency, reading accuracy, rapid automatized naming, and processing speed. Young adults with typical reading development (n = 25; 15 female sex assigned at birth, 10 male sex assigned at birth, aged 18–28 years [M = 19.92 ± 2.04 years]) completed the reading and cognitive measures after 20 min of 2 mA anodal (excitatory), cathodal (inhibitory), or sham tDCS in a within-subjects design. Linear mixed effects models indicated that cathodal tDCS decreased single-word reading fluency scores (d = −0.36, p &lt; 0.05) but did not significantly affect single-word reading accuracy, rapid automatized naming, or general processing speed measures. Our results suggest that the right posterolateral cerebellum is involved in reading fluency, consistent with a broader role of the cerebellum in fast, fluent cognition.
Transpositions: Painting and the Phenomenological Fragments of the Unrecognizable
Authors: Vallega Alejandro A. 
Published: October 2023

Abstract
For Anselm Kiefer, his painting shows that, that something exists “shows that there is also nothingness.” The moment of visibility is also the moment of our exposure in/with/through nothing (in a gerundive sense) elemental in the happening of the visible. Painting bears ways of exposing the becoming of the visible and ultimately of consciousness, both sensible and intellectual, in/through/with emptying and nothing, i.e., in the happening of the seer and the seen, in that coming into being of existing, we are exposed to the insight that “there is also nothingness.” The paper offers a series of transpositions, a series of ways of experiencing visibility and vision found in looking at specific images and paintings. The transpositions expose us to blindness, emptying, gaps, and loss in the happening of the visible, which, in displacing the certainty of rational subjective seeing/consciousness, lead to the quickening of vision and the visible anew.
Missionary Linguistics and the Protestant Policies for Missionary (Re)translations (English into Judeo-Spanish) in the Nineteenth Century
Authors: Martín-González Daniel 
Published: October 2023

Abstract
Missionary Linguistics attempts to analyze texts either written or (re)translated by missionaries, especially those produced by Spanish and Portuguese ministers in Latin America and Asia. However, some more specific case studies have been taken for granted, such as the case of the Scottish Protestant missionaries who wanted to convert Sephardic Jews in Constantinople in the nineteenth century. This article aims to illustrate the origin of the re(translation) policies of Protestant missionaries, such as those of the Free Church of Scotland mission in the nineteenth century. Moreover, we will describe the theoretical basis of Missionary Linguistics and the existing link between this innovative and modern branch of linguistics and Colonial Linguistics, thus showing common grounds as well as a way in which both could be combined into a single research field.
Integrating Pentecostal Healing and Western Medicine: A Case Study
Authors: Tangen Karl Inge 
Published: October 2023

Abstract
Medical missions are criticized for having a secularizing effect. Progressive Pentecostals who combine prayer and Western medicine represent one possible solution to this problem. This article explores whether Western medicine and Pentecostal-charismatic healing practices can be sustainably integrated by offering a case study of the medical missiology of Osvald Orlien. The article shows that Orlien’s model provides a theological conception of holistic health, a fusion of Pentecostalism and the African worldview, and the formation of a Pentecostal theology of medical science that affirms natural laws and human reason. Orlien offered a holistic theology of healing and an account of moral virtues that could be intelligibly defended. He encountered opposition from both Pentecostals who rejected Western medicine and rationalistic skeptics who refused Pentecostal healing practices. The case study also identifies key factors contributing to sustainable, institutional integration of medicine and charismatic practices in the Congolese context.
Mission as Hospitality with Refugees and Other Migrants: Exploring Ross Langmead’s “Guests and Hosts” in Australian Churches
Authors: Cronshaw Darren , Hyun Hanna , Laughlin Peter , Olorunnisola Titus S. , Parker Stephen 
Published: October 2023

Abstract
This article explores the “mission of God” and its relationship with refugees and migrants in Australia. At its best, this mission is experienced as hospitality to, by, and with people of cultural diversity. Ross Langmead (2014) called for a theology of mission as an expression of divine hospitality to those marginalized and forcefully displaced, and recalled the significance of the cultural diversity that the Bible celebrates. By hospitably serving and learning from refugees and migrants, Australian local churches function as both guests and hosts. Langmead suggested this hospitality has ten dimensions including advocacy, meals, mutual learning, and “openness to a transforming divine presence” (2014:39ff). It is this last dimension that invites reflection as to how all ten may be more broadly applied. This article is a conversation on the experience of Australian churches at large in giving and receiving hospitality with refugees and other migrants. The conversation demonstrates the value of practicing hospitality for the sake of mutual learning and shared mission amongst the global diaspora in the Australian context.
Frameworks in Historiography: Explanation, Scenarios, and Futures
Authors: Virmajoki Veli 
Published: October 2023

Abstract
In this paper, I analyze how frameworks shape historiographical explanations. I argue that, in order to identify a sequence of events as relevant to a historical outcome, assumptions about the workings of the relevant domain have to be made. By extending Lakatosian considerations, I argue that these assumptions are provided by a framework that contains a set of factors and intertwined principles that (supposedly) govern how a historical phenomenon works. I connect frameworks with a counterfactual account of historical explanation. Frameworks enable us to explain the past by providing a backbone of explanatory patterns of counterfactual dependency. I conclude by noting that both counterfactual scenarios and scenarios of the future require frameworks and, therefore, historiographical explanation generates a set of possible futures. Analyzing these possible futures enables us to reveal the theoretical commitments of historiography.
A Manuscript Witness of Cultural Activity in Mongol Baghdad
Authors: De Nicola Bruno 
Published: October 2023

Abstract
This article focuses on MS Leiden Or. 95, which contains a version of the Ḥall mushkilāt al-Ishārāt by Naṣīr al-Dīn al-Ṭūsī (d. 672/1273), copied apparently in 1272 CE. This article explores the paratextual evidence present in the manuscript in order to reconstruct the history of the book and investigate aspects of cultural life in Mongol and post-Mongol Baghdad. It is an attempt, based on manuscript evidence, to contribute to the broader discussion on the impact that the Mongol invasions had on the cultural life of the Middle East in general and the city of Baghdad in particular. The analysis of the colophon, ownership marks, reading certificates, and annotations in this codex offer a particular case study of aspects of production, distribution, and consumption of knowledge in Ilkhanid Baghdad.
‘Comrade’: The Liberation Roots of the Militarisation of Politics in Zimbabwe, 1960s–1979
Authors: Ndawana Enock 
Published: October 2023

Abstract
This article examines the development of militarisation in the liberation movements from the 1960s to 1979. It argues that the militarisation of politics and the state that would dominate Zimbabwe in the post-colonial period has its roots in both the Rhodesian state and the liberation movements. It asserts that the Zimbabwean state was militarised at birth primarily because the liberation movements had the military dominating politics, a process that was also, though variably, happening in the Rhodesian state. The article concludes that the militarisation phenomenon that dominates Zimbabwean politics and state today can only be disentangled when the forces that generated it are properly understood and situated in their context.
Cybersecurity Law and Regulation in China: Securing the Smart State
Authors: Creemers Rogier 
Published: October 2023

Abstract
Cybersecurity has become a key regulatory area in China’s rapidly digitizing society, economy, and state. The leadership deems it critical in providing adequate security guarantees for the realization of the ambitious “informatization” policy, symbolized by the passing of the Cybersecurity Law in 2016. Cybersecurity has also become integrated with overall national security, at a time when Chinese policy has become increasingly securitized. What, then, does this mean in practice? How do authorities conceive of cybersecurity and attempt to retrofit regulatory frameworks into an already well-established digital environment. This paper reviews the various components of the cybersecurity regime established by the Cybersecurity Law. It discusses how external circumstances have facilitated or obstructed the advance of regulation and implementation and demonstrates how cybersecurity is embedded in the broader processes of reform led by the Chinese Communist Party.
Smart Governance in China’s Political-Legal System
Authors: Papagianneas Straton 
Published: October 2023

Abstract
The belief in quantitative indicators based on standardized data as an effective tool has become more entrenched than ever before, in both public and corporate governance, because of a drive to achieve more efficiency and accountability. The power of automated computation systems and the ubiquitous availability of big data have magnified the potential and capacities for quantification. The People’s Republic of China (prc) has enthusiastically embraced these advanced technologies. The rapid digitization and automation of social governance in China, called “smart governance,” entail new approaches to social and political control, driven by innovations in algorithmic systems, big data analytics, and artificial intelligence. This article seeks to reveal the ideological foundations of the prc’s push for the digitization and automation of social governance. Drawing on international scholarship on Chinese Marxism and Leninism, it argues that the positivist organizational and ideological principles of Marxism-Leninism help explain why technology and automation are embraced so enthusiastically by the Chinese party-state: they provide a way to achieve the dream of rational Marxist governance. Through an empirical analysis of 120 articles from 2014 to 2021, this article illustrates that these ideas are, or may be, a vital part of shaping academic discourse around smart governance in China today. An analysis of Chinese academic discourse is an essential part of understanding the ideological foundations of Chinese Communist Party (ccp) governance and statecraft and how these commitments shape the embrace and deployment of smart technologies. The way in which scholars discuss the transformative power of smart technologies demonstrates a similar ideological understanding of social governance.
Basket Case: Reform and China’s Social Credit Law
Authors: Knight Adam 
Published: October 2023

Abstract
The social credit system (scs) has become a cornerstone of China’s drive toward informatization in pursuit of its governance goals. Its definition and scope, two decades in the making, have evolved dramatically over time, however. What began as a financial tool for the stimulation of market-based activity has been applied in a broader regulatory context as well as in the propagation of a state-arbitered moral-legal agenda. Layered on top of these sometimes conflicting ambitions has been a persistent tension in central-local implementation, further complicating rollout of the system. Domestic criticism of the scs in policy and academic circles has led to a clamor for reform, culminating in the publication of a number of clarificatory documents, including a draft version of a Social Credit Law in November 2022. This article provides a genealogy of this new law, exploring the origins and evolution of the scs and its governing legal logic.
Everyday Democracy and Civic Agriculture
Authors: Lee WanJu 
Published: October 2023

Abstract
This article develops the concept of “everyday democracy” by analyzing how a community-supported agriculture organization in Taiwan (CSA-TWN) practices economic democracy. First, it illustrates how democracy is learned and practiced in daily interactions with the logics of “equality” and “collective decision-making”. Second, it argues that organizations such as CSA-TWN, which operate based on “relationships” and “common values,” need to develop their own democratic mechanisms to ensure consistency of actions and values, which can be achieved through formal and informal conversations. Finally, this article suggests that the informal caring work within CSA-TWN is important as it facilitates the exchange of diverse opinions and emotions, which helps to address conflicts and problems that arise and to sustain the organization’s operations. In the face of contemporary market-based agriculture’s dilemmas, the case of CSA-TWN provides concrete examples of innovative practices that offer alternative forms of economic democracy and institutional design.
The Social Participation Practice Process of University and Community Collaboration to Promote Local Development in Taichung City
Authors: Sung Wei-Ying 
Published: October 2023

Abstract
Wuqi District is located along the coastline of Taichung City. In the past, fishing was the main industry. However, the region now faces issues such as population outflow and aging. Although resources such as the Taichung Harbor Transformation Plan, the Mitsui Outlet Mall, and the Farglory Group Township Project have been developed in recent years, this has also impacted Wuqi’s community and residents’ lives. Therefore, constructing a suitable social practice model in Wuqi, one based on the local cultural background, is important for further assisting local development. Hungkuang University, located near Wuqi district, has been actively promoting social responsibility in recent years and has launched the Local Care Project for the Old Town of Wuqi District, aiming to assist local development. This article assesses the driving process and challenges for this development through participatory observation and interviews, and aims to propose ways to promote social responsibility in the future.
Independence of Axioms in Ranking Opportunity Sets Taking into Account Similarity Relations Induced by Money-metric Utility Functions
Authors: Vázquez Carmen 
Published: October 2023

The objective of this work is to prove the independence of the axioms that characterise rules for ranking opportunity sets: the preference for diversity ordering, the cardinality-first ordering, and the preference-first ordering. The proof of the independence of axioms reinforces the value of the characterisation, since if there were axioms where a consequence of others, they should be eliminated from said characterisation.

Outcome of hip resurfacing revision through the Hueter-anterior approach
Authors: Ricard Marc-Antoine , Ardell James , Laboudie Pierre , Wei Roger , Beaulé Paul E 
Published: October 2023

Background: The Hueter-Anterior Approach (HAA) with its limited soft tissue and internervous dissection has been shown to be an effective approach for primary total hip and hip resurfacing arthroplasty (HRA). The purpose of this study is to evaluate the clinical outcome of patients requiring revision of HRA to total hip replacement using the HAA, assessing function and complications. Methods: We performed a retrospective review of a prospectively maintained research database. Between 2006 and 2015, 555 primary metal-on-metal (MoM) HRAs were performed via the HAA; we identified 33 hips in 30 patients that required revisions for aseptic causes to THA: aseptic loosening of acetabulum in 12 and femoral in 7, 10 for pseudotumour/ALTR, 4 for femoral neck fracture. All revision surgeries were performed through a HAA by a single surgeon who had also performed the index operation. PROMs were collected preoperatively and yearly at various timepoints postoperatively. Results: The mean age at time of revision was 48.9 years (±5.3 SD) for 22 males (67%) and 11 females (33%). The mean time to revision surgery/failure of hip resurfacing was 3.3 years (±2.4 SD). There were 5 major reoperations with 3 infections, 1 acetabular loosening and 1 trunnionosis. There were significant improvements in multiple PROMs. Conclusions: The HAA is a viable surgical approach for revision of HRA with smaller initial HRA acetabular components generally requiring a relatively larger acetabular compoent at time of revision. Patients reported improvement in symptoms and function and a lower risk of subsequent reoperation than what has previously been reported for failed MoM bearings.
Differentiating early sensory profiles in toddlers at elevated likelihood of autism and association with later clinical outcome and diagnosis

Published: October 2023

Sensory features are included in the diagnostic criteria of autism spectrum disorder, and sensory responsiveness may produce “cascading effects” on later development. However, the relation between early sensory profiles and later skills has yet to be defined. This study aims to characterize sensory subgroups in 116 toddlers at elevated likelihood for autism spectrum disorder and test their association with later autistic traits and diagnosis. We used latent class analyses to assess individual differences across sensory patterns, grouping individuals with similar sensory profiles together. The final model was chosen based on a stepwise procedure, starting with a one-class solution, and then adds one class at a time. The Sensory Profile-2 Questionnaire measured clinical sensory features, and four sensory patterns were evaluated (seeking, avoiding, sensitivity, and registration). We investigated sensory subgroups concerning socio-communication skills and restricted/repetitive behaviors at 24 months and the clinical best-estimate diagnosis at 3 years. A three-class solution was favored, and toddlers can be characterized into three homogeneous sensory groups: low seeking, sensory balanced, and high sensitivity. The results showed that the high sensitivity group showed later socio-communicative difficulties and restricted/repetitive behaviors. Children in this class were those with the highest percentage of diagnosis at 3 years (57.9%). These findings provide new insights into the nature of sensory processing and may have implications for personalized support needs. Lay abstract Early sensory responsiveness may produce cascading effects on later development, but the relation between sensory profiles and autistic diagnosis remains unclear. In a longitudinal sample of toddlers at elevated likelihood for autism, we aimed to characterize sensory subgroups and their association with clinical outcomes later on. Three sensory subgroups were described and early sensory sensitivity plays a significant role in later development and diagnosis. This study supported the importance of examining different levels of sensory patterns to dissect the phenotypic heterogeneity in sensory processing. As sensory differences are associated with later developmental outcomes, these results may be critical when designing intervention needs and support for children at increased likelihood for neurodevelopmental disorders.
