Abstract

Background
Multiple diseases, such as Adolescent Idiopathic Scoliosis (AIS), present at adolescent age and the impact on quality of life (QoL) prolongs into adulthood. For the EQ-5D, a commonly used instrument to measure QoL, the current guideline is ambiguous whether the youth or adult version is to be preferred at adolescent age. To assess which is most suitable, this study tested for equivalence along predefined criteria of the youth (EQ-5D-5L) and adult (EQ-5D-Y-5L) version in an adolescent population receiving bracing therapy for AIS.

Methodology
107 adolescents were recruited from 4 scoliosis centers in the Netherlands between March 2022 and January 2023; they completed both EQ-5D’s and the SRS-22r (scoliosis-specific questionnaire). The following criteria were evaluated using the individual and sum of domains (level-sum-score (LSS)). Our primary criterion for non-equivalence of the EQ-5D’s was less than excellent (≤ 0.9) intra-individual agreement using Intraclass Correlation Coefficient (ICC) analysis for LSS and weighted (quadratic) kappa for domains. Secondary criteria were differences in ceiling using McNemar test; a different number of quantified hypotheses for construct validity achieved using the SRS-22r as comparator; differences in test-retest reliability by comparing ICC/kappa values using a Z-test.

Results
Adolescents had a mean age of 14 years (range 12–18), and 78% were female. Ceiling was mostly comparable between EQ-5D’s, ranging from 78 to 81% for mobility and self-care, 52–54% for usual activities, and 31–36% for pain/discomfort. The EQ-5D-5L showed more ceiling (57%) compared to the EQ-5D-Y-5L (41%) on anxiety/depression (p = 0.006). Agreement between the EQ-5D’s did not meet our criterion for the LSS (ICC 0.79 (95% confidence interval 0.70–0.85)), and decreased further at the domain-level. Both EQ-5D’s achieved 5/7 validity hypotheses. Test-retest reliability was slightly better for EQ-5D-5L LSS (ICC 0.76 (0.64–0.84)) compared to EQ-5D-Y-5L LSS (ICC 0.69 (0.55–0.79)), although this was statistically insignificant (p = 0.284). This pattern was similar for most domains.

Conclusions
The EQ-5D versions showed insufficient agreement, and cannot be considered fully equivalent. While they were similar in terms of validity and test-retest reliability, differences in score distribution were present. Taken together, we advise using the EQ-5D-5L to monitor the QoL in adolescent patients with AIS, as it avoids switching instruments and thus data discontinuities. Future studies should verify these findings in different patient groups and the general population.
Use of Preoperative Spinal Angiography in Severe Spinal Deformity Patients Who Require Thoracic 3 Column Osteotomy: A Case Series and Review of the Literature
Authors: Neifert Sean N. , Rutledge W. Caleb , Frempong-Boadu Anthony , Lau Darryl 
Published: January 2025

BACKGROUND AND OBJECTIVES:
Three-column osteotomy (3CO) offers substantial spinal deformity correction. Thoracic neurovascular bundle sacrifice is often required, and anterior spinal artery (ASA) perfusion can be compromised. Spinal angiography allows localization of variable ASA vascular contribution. This study's objective was to describe a series of patients who underwent preoperative spinal angiography and discuss the impact on surgical planning and execution of thoracic 3CO for deformity correction.

METHODS:
Patients who underwent preoperative spinal angiograms and thoracic 3CO for deformity correction were reviewed. Preoperative, angiographic, and postoperative information was recorded. A literature review on preoperative spinal angiography in deformity surgery was performed.

RESULTS:
Eight patients were identified: single-level pedicle subtraction osteotomies (1), single-level vertebral column resections (2), and multilevel vertebral column resections (5). The average age was 40.0 years, and 75.0% were female. Thoracic scoliosis ranged from 0 to 105° preoperatively and 0 to 45.1° postoperatively. Thoracic kyphosis ranged from 29° to 120° preoperatively and 20.6° to 54.9° postoperatively. Twelve ASA supply vessels were identified bilaterally in 6 patients. Four patients had nontraditional ASA supply at T4 (1), T6 (1), and L2 (2), and 4 had multiple ASA feeders. Based on angiographic results, osteotomy site was changed (1), and neurovascular bundles were spared (2), a 37.5% rate of surgical plan alteration. There were no permanent neuromonitoring changes or postoperative neurologic deficits. No articles reported on using spinal angiography specifically for deformity surgery.

CONCLUSION:
Spinal angiography is low risk and provides critical information regarding ASA supply to potentially mitigate ischemic risk during neurovascular bundle takedown during thoracic 3CO. Further case series are warranted to evaluate the benefits in larger populations, but its clinical applications appear practical.

Published: January 2025

ABSTRACT
Disrupted nuclear shape is associated with multiple pathological processes including premature aging disorders, cancer-relevant chromosomal rearrangements and DNA damage. Nuclear blebs (i.e. herniations of the nuclear envelope) can be induced by (1) nuclear compression, (2) nuclear migration (e.g. cancer metastasis), (3) actin contraction, (4) lamin mutation or depletion, and (5) heterochromatin enzyme inhibition. Recent work has shown that chromatin transformation is a hallmark of bleb formation, but the transformation of higher-order structures in blebs is not well understood. As higher-order chromatin has been shown to assemble into nanoscopic packing domains, we investigated whether (1) packing domain organization is altered within nuclear blebs and (2) whether alteration in packing domain structure contributed to bleb formation. Using dual-partial wave spectroscopic microscopy, we show that chromatin-packing domains within blebs are transformed both by B-type lamin depletion and the inhibition of heterochromatin enzymes compared to what is seen in the nuclear body. Pairing these results with single-molecule localization microscopy of constitutive heterochromatin, we show fragmentation of nanoscopic heterochromatin domains within bleb domains. Overall, these findings indicate that chromatin within blebs is associated with a fragmented higher-order chromatin structure.
Consumer Privacy in Online Retail Supply Chains
Authors: Xu Fasheng , Wang Xiaoyu , Zhang Fuqiang 
Published: January 2025

Exploitation of consumer data allows online retailers to enhance services provided to consumers but at the risk of causing unintended privacy issues. There has been debate about whether to devise regulation policies to restrict data collection and usage by online retailers. This paper studies the implications of newly adopted privacy policies, such as the General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR), for an online retail supply chain comprising a retailer and a supplier. We find that despite the GDPR’s intention to safeguard consumer privacy, it may inadvertently hurt consumer surplus while benefiting the retailer. In fact, the GDPR may lead to an outcome detrimental to all parties involved, including the retailer, supplier, and consumers, thereby resulting in a triple-lose situation. Our results hold significant implications for consumers, supply chain firms, and policymakers alike, contributing to the existing literature on evaluating the impact of privacy regulations on technology innovation and adoption.

Suzane is The New Black
Authors: Brasiliense Danielle 
Published: January 2025

Neste artigo vamos falar sobre a exploração midiática do fait-divers através das histórias narrativas da presidiária Suzane, visto que, ela é a representação social no Brasil do que conhecemos como monstruoso, alguém que cometeu grande atrocidade contra o pilar da ordem social, a família. Ainda que vista como monstro desde seu ato assassino repousa sobre ela um mecanismo eficaz de manutenção da emoção e respiração do público de massa que acompanha seu caso sempre em alta tensão. Assim como nas séries de TV, especialmente em Orange Is The New Black, com as narrativas sobre presidiárias, Suzane segue o seu percurso como num romance folhetinesco vivo e seriado, que ronda os discursos midiáticos e que por sua vez, sempre deixam a história inacabada com a espera de um novo número, uma nova edição, que não deixa morrer a curiosidade do seu público.

Concluímos que as declarações produzidas por Bela Gil concebem a saúde, sobretudo, como responsabilidade individual e que sua autoridade é reconhecida mais pela identificação com sua experiência e convicção pessoal do que com os conhecimentos científicos eventualmente mobilizados.
Batalhas sônicas: disputas territoriais do Congo Capixaba
Authors: Madeira Thaíse Valentim , Marra Pedro Silva 
Published: January 2025

Este artigo se propõe a refletir sobre as disputas territoriais agenciadas por meio de campanhas sônicas realizadas durantes as festas do Congo Capixaba. Trata-se de entender a convergência das dimensões cognitivas e somáticas dos sons, a partir da análise dos processos comunicativos, sociais e culturais gerados em experiências sonoras possíveis durante as festas em questão. Para tanto, examina-se as dinâmicas de colonização sonora em situações de conflitos sugeridas a partir do modelo tripartite de Daughtry (2015) - Regimes Auditivos, Campanhas Sônicas e Territórios Acústicos. Acredita-se que, no contexto das festas, os parâmetros acústicos (intensidade, frequência e espacialidade), e o e o trânsito espacial e simbólico das manifestações convergem na enunciação e territorialização de suas tradições ancestrais no cenário contemporâneo.

Este artigo analisa a relação entre a gentrificação do Morro Santa Terezinha, comunidade de pescadores em área turística de Fortaleza e as matérias veiculadas no Jornal Diário do Nordeste entre 1982 e 1995. Com os trabalhos de Pereira, Wacquant e Slater (2014) sobre a relação de estigmas territoriais e a teoria do deslocamento de renda de Smith (1982), de Thompson (2014) sobre ideologia e mídia, e de Lefebvre (1991) e Haesbaert (2004) observou-se uma dimensão simbólica nos processos de gentrificação. Analisou-se 04 matérias com base nos Modos de Operação Ideológicos de Thompson (2007). Concluiu-se que o jornalismo atua como agente em processos de gentrificação por meio da enunciação de discursos que reproduzem, legitimam ou dissimulam relações e estruturas de poder que estão no centro das dinâmicas de territorialização intra-urbanas.

We characterize a large-aperture gas-cooled Faraday rotator (FR) designed to mitigate stress-induced depolarization in high-energy, high-power laser systems. The rotator, based on ceramic TGG, was tested using a 150 mW probe beam at 1047 nm and a pump beam at 1070 nm. Compensating for the birefringence induced by the surrogate depolarization plate at 3.3 kW of effective pump power, the rotator reduces the spatially in-homogeneous depolarized light containing linear, circular, and elliptical polarization states to nearly linear with approximately 0.8% (or −21 dB) of residual depolarized energy. The FR demonstrated effective depolarization compensation across its 58×58 mm2 aperture.
Joint trajectories of physical activity, health, and income before and after statutory retirement: A 22-year follow-up
Authors: Lallukka Tea , Kolmonen Petteri , Rahkonen Ossi , Lahelma Eero , Lahti Jouni 
Published: January 2025

Background
Health behaviors, health, and income change during aging. However, no previous studies have examined, how they develop together over the transition to statutory retirement. We aimed to examine their joint development and to identify the determinants of any distinct trajectories.

Methods
We studied former employees of the City of Helsinki, Finland, who transitioned to full statutory retirement between 2000 and 2022 (n = 5209, 80% women). We examined five repeated questionnaire surveys to identify any joint developmental patterns in the key indicators of healthy aging and well-being—leisure-time physical activity, health measured by general health perceptions, and household income, over a follow-up of 22 years. We used joint group-based trajectory analysis to identify latent developmental groups. The social and health-related determinants of trajectory group membership are reported as average marginal effects.

Results
We found four distinct joint trajectory groups. Group 1 (22.6%) had consistently poor general health perceptions, less physical activity than the recommended amount, and low income. In Group 2 (34.2%), general health perceptions were first good but then declined, and income was low but slightly increasing. Group 3 (12.3%) had good general health perceptions, a very high level of physical activity, but fluctuating income. In Group 4 (30.9%), general health perceptions were first good but then declined, physical activity was at the recommended level, and income was sharply increasing. People with obesity had a 22 percentage-point (21–24) higher predicted probability of belonging to Group 1 than people with normal weight. They were also more likely to report low education and more physician-diagnosed chronic diseases and mental disorders.

Conclusions
We identified distinct trajectories in physical activity, general health perceptions, and income over a follow-up of over 20 years. The majority of those who had transitioned to statutory retirement had good general health perceptions but varying levels of physical activity and income. As not all those with a low income had a low level of physical activity or poor general health perceptions, public health interventions should target distinct groups with the most adverse risk factor profiles, to narrow health inequalities during aging.
The effect of physical exercise and cognition-orientated interventions on post-stroke cognitive function: Protocol for an overview of reviews
Authors: Smith James , Nagy Philip , Tod David , Holland Carol , Jarvis Hannah 
Published: January 2025

Background
Strokes are becoming more common, and with improving survival rates, the prevalence of stroke survivors has increased. Almost half of chronic stroke survivors are cognitively impaired, and healthcare services are struggling to manage these patients, leaving some feeling “abandoned”. Several systematic reviews have investigated the effect of physical exercise and cognition-orientated interventions on post-stroke cognitive impairment, and have produced conflicting findings, making it difficult for clinicians and guideline producers to make evidence-based decisions. This overview of reviews aims to provide a comprehensive overview of systematic reviews investigating the effect of physical exercise and cognition-orientated interventions on post-stroke cognitive function, assess methodological quality and certainty of evidence, and identify sources of discordance between these reviews.

Methods
Eight databases–Embase, Medline, CINAHL, Psycinfo, SPORTDiscus, The Cochrane Database of Systematic reviews, Epistemonikos, and Scopus–plus grey literature sources will be searched. The eligibility criteria include systematic reviews of trials that included an adult stroke population and investigated physical exercise and/or cognition-orientated interventions. Only reviews that assessed at least one of the DSM-5 neurocognitive domains will be included. Screening, data extraction, and quality appraisal will be conducted by two independent reviewers. Methodological quality, certainty of evidence, and primary study overlap will be assessed using the AMSTAR-2, GRADE, and GROOVE tools, respectively. Interventions will be grouped into exercise, cognition-orientated, and combined interventions, and findings will be synthesised narratively. Heterogeneity assessment will be conducted to identify factors causing discordance between reviews.

Discussion
The findings of this overview will allow decision makers to make evidence-based decisions, stratified by methodological quality and certainty of evidence. Heterogeneity assessment may identify factors causing discordance between systematic reviews, which could inform the design of future studies.

Published: January 2025

Background & Aims:
Non-invasive tests (NITs), e.g. Fibrosis-4 Index (FIB-4) and vibration-controlled elastography (VCTE), have been used to identify metabolic dysfunction-associated steatotic liver disease (MASLD) patients at high risks for hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC). This study investigates the cost-effectiveness of NITs to identify MASLD patients with advanced liver fibrosis and initiate HCC surveillance.

Methods:
A cost-utility analysis using a Markov model compared no use of NITs with three NIT strategies: 1) FIB-4 and VCTE (FIB-4/VCTE), 2) FIB-4 alone, and 3) VCTE alone to identify advanced liver fibrosis and initiate HCC surveillance with biannual ultrasonography with alpha-fetoprotein in 4 MASLD populations: 1) general MASLD patients, 2) MASLD patients with body mass index (BMI) >30 kg/m2, 3) MASLD patients with diabetes, and 4) MASLD patients with three metabolic traits (diabetes, hypertension and BMI >30).

Results:
FIB-4/VCTE was the most cost-effective approach across all groups, showing the lowest ICER, followed by FIB-4 alone and VCTE alone. In the general MASLD population, both FIB-4/VCTE and FIB-4 alone were cost-effective in the US, while only FIB-4/VCTE was cost-effective in Thailand. For MASLD patients with BMI >30, all strategies were cost-effective in the US, while only FIB-4/VCTE was cost-effective in Thailand. In MASLD patients with diabetes or 3 metabolic traits, all strategies were cost-effective in the US, while FIB-4/VCTE and FIB-4 alone were cost-effective in Thailand.

Conclusions:
Using FIB-4/VCTE to initiate HCC surveillance is cost-effective for MASLD patients. If VCTE is unavailable, FIB-4 alone is a cost-effective alternative for MASLD patients with diabetes or 3 metabolic traits.
