VTD-Visual and Tactile Database for Driver State and Behavior Perception
Authors: Wang Jie , Zhu Zhongpan 
Published: October 2023

<p>Human-vehicle co-pilot has recently been the research focus in autonomous vehicles. However, there have been many subjective uncertainties in the driver's state and the behavior of human-vehicle interaction, which is a crucial factor constraining the safety of Human-in-the-loop co-driving. To promote the research in the domain, we propose a new visual?tactile perception method based on a driving simulation platform and have built a new large-scale dataset. The data of drivers' visual and tactile behaviors and states during driver fatigue and human-vehicle switched driving are included to satisfy different investigation needs. Concerning visual data, we extract features from the drivers' behaviors and states through a deep convolutional network in multiple angles, followed by adjusting the model with subjective feedback from Human-in-the-loop to improve the accuracy of the extracted feature through continuous iterations. Regarding haptic processing, we designed a steering wheel using flexible conductive electronic-skin material, which achieved time-series data extraction built upon the driver's heart rate and rate of change based on the haptic signal when the drivers are holding the steering wheel. Moreover, we calibrated the extracted data with the wearable heart rate sensor. Finally, we synchronized the time-series visual-tactile data with time stamps, forming a cross-modal database that provides data support for implementing cross-modal perception algorithms for driver behavior.</p>

Treatment Patterns and Outcomes Among Patients With Advanced or Recurrent Endometrial Cancer Initiating First-Line Therapy in the United States
Authors: Coleman Robert L. , Garside Jamie , Hurteau Jean , Nguyen Joehl , Kobayashi Monica 
Published: October 2023

Background: Patients with advanced or recurrent endometrial cancer (EC) typically have limited treatment options and poor long-term survival outcomes following first-line therapy. Real-world treatment patterns and survival outcomes data are limited for patients in this setting. Objectives: The objective of this retrospective study was to describe real-world demographics, clinical characteristics, treatment patterns, and overall survival among patients in the United States with primary advanced or recurrent EC who initiated at least 1 line of therapy (LOT). Methods: Patients with a diagnosis of primary advanced or recurrent EC in a real-world database from January 1, 2013, to July 31, 2021, were included. The date for inclusion was the date of EC diagnosis documentation; patients were indexed for treatment patterns and outcomes at the start of the first LOT and at the start of each subsequent LOT they initiated. Data were stratified by subgroups of patients who had mismatch repair deficient (dMMR) or microsatellite instability-high (MSI-H) tumors. Results: A total of 1961 patients who received at least 1 LOT were included. Most patients in this cohort, and the dMMR/MSI-H subgroup, received a platinum combination as first-line treatment, with carboplatin-paclitaxel being the most common regimen. Only 53% of patients who received first-line treatment subsequently received second-line therapy. Of the patients who received at least 1 LOT, use of immunotherapy in the second-line setting was more common in the dMMR/MSI-H subgroup. Median overall survival ranged from 14.1 to 31.8 months across the 5 most frequently used first-line treatment regimens in the ≥1 LOT cohort and became shorter with each subsequent LOT. Discussion: The use of platinum-based chemotherapy for first-line treatment of advanced or recurrent EC predominates in the real-world setting, despite the poor long-term survival outcomes associated with most of these regimens. Conclusions: Patients with recurrent/advanced EC have a poor prognosis, highlighting the need for therapies with more durable benefits.

Published: October 2023

O artigo apresenta elementos discriminatórios do processo editorial identificados por pesquisadores que submeteram artigos para periódicos internacionais. Mostra o papel das hierarquias na prática editorial e as consequências desse preconceito para o ato de publicar de pesquisadores brasileiros. A pesquisa foi realizada desde 2019, com grupos de pesquisa cujo tema versava em torno do tema da Bioenergia, da Universidade de Brasília (UNB), da EMBRAPA agroenergia, e da Escola Superior de Agricultura Luiz de Queiroz (ESALQ/USP). Utilizaram-se entrevistas semiestruturadas e análises de conteúdo por meio do software de análise qualitativa NVIVO. Como resultado, os pesquisadores relatam o preconceito editorial em função da língua e da rede assimétrica de colaboração e, ao traçarem estratégias para contornar o preconceito, tendem a reforçar padrões editoriais hegemônicos do norte global.

Published: October 2023

Abstract
Speckle observations performed between 2019 and 2022 with the HRCam attached to the 4.1 m SOAR telescope (Cerro Pachón, Chile) permitted to improve visual orbits of the southern binaries WDS 01243-0655 (BU 1163), WDS 09275-5806 (CHR 240), WDS 12114-1647 (S 643 AaAb), WDS 13317-0219 (HDS 1895), WDS 15282-0921 (BAG 25 AaAb), WDS 17304-0104 (STF 2173), WDS 19598-0957 (HO 276), and WDS 21274-0701 (HDS 3053). All of them are spectroscopic binaries, of which six are SB2, so relevant information about their individual masses has been obtained. Moreover, comparison between different values of their parallaxes (orbital, dynamic, and ANAPAR, a color-dependent model suitable for binary systems attending to the exact locations of the components on the MS in the HR diagram) with those provided by Hipparcos and Gaia missions, along with comments for each binary are presented. The luminosity determination of the 16 components allowed us to estimate their approximate age and position on the HR diagram as well.
Penser la (petite) corruption dans certains pays d’Afrique Subsaharienne : l’apport de l’approche compréhensive
Authors: Mideso Narcisse 
Published: October 2023

Objet d’étude de diverses disciplines scientifiques, la notion de corruption opère aujourd’hui un dépassement significatif des cloisonnements académiques. La présente contribution met en évidence l’enjeu épistémologique qu’implique le passage de l’approche normative de la corruption à l’approche compréhensive fondée sur les représentations des acteurs. Un accent particulier est mis sur le continent africain devenu depuis la seconde moitié du XX e siècle un laboratoire grandeur nature des études sur la corruption. Malgré les différences que présentent ces approches telles que présentées dans la deuxième partie, et avant de proposer en conclusion une manière de les articuler à travers la théorie du pluralisme normatif, la première partie de cette contribution revient sur ce qu’il convient de considérer comme le noyau dur de la notion de corruption, caractéristique des pratiques de corruption peu importe l’approche disciplinaire abordée.
Requiem: Aching for Acker
Authors: Mare Aline 
Published: October 2023

Requiem: Aching for Acker (2018) is a body of work that is directly inspired by “Requiem” (1997), the last piece of writing by counterculture writer Kathy Acker, a friend of mine—on and off—for decades. It was published as part of an opera in London. A risk-taker and literary outlaw subversive, Acker was a hybrid of punk, postmodernism, feminism, and critical theory in her public identity as well as in her literary works. She died of breast cancer on November 30, 1997 at the age of 53, after a double mastectomy and turning her back on Western medicine. I was deeply moved to be a close friend to her in her final days. My series of photo-based multimedia works is an interpretation of the final poem in the opera, where Acker filters her cancer diagnosis through Greek mythology. Using a mix of alternative processes and technology, I weave nature-based iconography from other of my recent bodies of work: roots, seeds, fossils, and lichen fused together with actual artifacts of Acker’s. I use images of the body: with scars from survivors of breast cancer and from ancient tombstones, whose age and weathered surfaces add pathos to the stone hands and wings of angels. The imagery is suspended in a dense atmosphere of chromatic gradients, in a space full of subjectivity, memory and pain—an emotion-filled realm of magic and myth.
Kathy Acker’s Gift
Authors: Texier Catherine 
Published: October 2023

On the occasion of a public marathon reading in New York of Kathy Acker’s Blood and Guts in High School in which she participated, the writer Catherine Texier recalls how she discovered the work of Kathy Acker when she first arrived in New York from her native France in the early 80’s. Later she attended Acker’s powerful and provocative performances and got to know her. In this essay Texier pays homage to Acker’s bold and free voice, and to the way she mixed appropriation, plagiarism, cut-up techniques inherited from Burroughs, like the true punk that she was. She also connects Acker’s work to that of French women writers often grouped in the movement of auto-fiction, like Camille Laurens, Christine Angot, Annie Ernaux and Catherine Cusset.

ABSTRACT

Background:
Warfarin was a frequently prescribed long-term anticoagulant before the advent of novel oral anticoagulants or direct oral anticoagulants. These drugs are used for the primary or secondary prevention of stroke in patients with atrial fibrillation or for the treatment and prophylactic prevention of venous thromboembolism. This study aimed to assess the anticoagulation control of patients receiving warfarin at a tertiary care hospital.

Methods:
This retrospective cohort study was conducted in an anticoagulation clinic at a tertiary care hospital in Saudi Arabia and included 113 patients who had been treated with warfarin for at least 3 months. Thereafter, the international normalized ratio results were collected for 3 years. Anticoagulation control was assessed by calculating time within the therapeutic range (TTR) as per the Rosendaal method.

Results:
A total of 113 patients (mean age, 56 ± 17.6 years; 64.6% of females) were included. The mean TTR was 48.1%. Almost one-third of the patients (31.3%) had poor anticoagulation control defined as a TTR of <50%. Poor anticoagulation control was significantly associated with a higher CHADS2 (congestive heart failure, hypertension, age, diabetes, and stroke/transient ischemic attack) score (P = 0.043). TTR did not differ significantly between men and women, and it was not associated with age or anticoagulation therapy duration.

Conclusion:
Anticoagulation quality was suboptimal in patients receiving warfarin in a tertiary care hospital, with nearly 41% of time spent outside the therapeutic range. Methods should be implemented to improve anticoagulation control in appropriate patient groups.

Authors: Eizadi-Mood Nastaran , Heshmat Rasol , Meamar Rokhsareh , Motamedi Narges 
Published: October 2023

Background:
Complications or death risk factors is necessary for better monitoring and treatment. The aim of this study was to define the relative risk of toxico-clinical parameters with regard to poisoning severity and outcomes in patients with acute poisoning.

Materials and Methods:
This cross-sectional study entailed of patients with acute poisoning admitted to the poisoning emergency center of khorshid hospital, Isfahan, Iran from December 2018 until March 2019. Patients (n = 300) were categorized into four groups (minor, moderate, severe, and fatal poisoning) based on severity. Multivariate logistic regression analysis was employed to calculate the odds ratio (OR) as the estimate of the relative risk of the different variables for the poisoning severity and outcomes prediction.

Results:
In the minor group, opioids/opiates, alcohols, and benzodiazepines (14.7%) were the most prevalent poisoning, multidrug (23.3%) was in the moderate and severe groups and finally, pesticides poisoning (23%) was most common in the fatal group. The predictive factors for poisoning severity were pre-hospital antidote administration [OR, (95%CI); P value) [7.08 (1.77-28.34); 0.006]; loss of consciousness [4.38 (1.84-10.42), 0.001]; abnormal ECG [4.56 (1.65-12.56); 0.003]; and time interval of poisoning to admission in the hospital [1.15 (1.02-1.28); 0.01). Patients without complications was observed in 49.7% of subjects. Patients with the loss of consciousness [66.06 (2.41-180.07); 0.01); underlying disease [3.65 (1.09-12.24); 0.03]; abnormal respiration [1.14 (1.02-1.27); 0.02); have had a greater risk of complications and death.

Conclusion:
Important factors for poisoning severity and/or outcome were loss of consciousness, pre-hospital antidote administration, abnormal ECG or respiration, underlying disease, and delay to presentation to hospital.

Authors: Kedia Yash S. , Thorve Swapnil M. , Waghmare Siddharth R. , Mishra Harshita , Karpe Sonal P. , Nair Jairaj P. 
Published: October 2023

Introduction:
Acute Respiratory Distress Syndrome (ARDS) is a rare presentation and a major complication of leptospirosis associated with high mortality despite advances in management.

Methods:
We conducted a retrospective observational study, in 48 patients presenting with ARDS due to leptospirosis. Clinical presentation, risk factors, management and outcome of patients were noted. Factors associated with survival and mortality were studied.

Results:
Our study showed a male preponderance (87%) with a mean age of presentation of 31.5 years. All patients presented with multiorgan failure. PaO2/FiO2 ratio less than 100 on 3rd day was associated with 90% mortality. The requirement for invasive mechanical ventilation carried a mortality risk of 70.4%. Overall mortality was 39.6%.

Conclusion:
Leptospirosis can cause serious ARDS with a high case fatality. Prompt treatment with non-invasive mechanical ventilation to maintain haemodynamic stability and intravenous steroids can improve the outcome.
Webs of type P
Authors: Davidson Nicholas , Kujawa Jonathan R. , Muth Robert 
Published: October 2023

AbstractThis paper introduces type P web supercategories. They are defined as diagrammatic monoidal
${\mathbb {k}}$
-linear supercategories via generators and relations. We study the structure of these categories and provide diagrammatic bases for their morphism spaces. We also prove these supercategories provide combinatorial models for the monoidal supercategory generated by the symmetric powers of the natural module and their duals for the Lie superalgebra of type P.
Prime representations in the Hernandez–Leclerc category: classical decompositions
Authors: Barth Leon , Kus Deniz 
Published: October 2023

AbstractWe use the dual functional realization of loop algebras to study the prime irreducible objects in the Hernandez–Leclerc (HL) category for the quantum affine algebra associated with
$\mathfrak {sl}_{n+1}$
. When the HL category is realized as a monoidal categorification of a cluster algebra (Hernandez and Leclerc (2010, Duke Mathematical Journal 154, 265–341); Hernandez and Leclerc (2013, Symmetries, integrable systems and representations, 175–193)), these representations correspond precisely to the cluster variables and the frozen variables are minimal affinizations. For any height function, we determine the classical decomposition of these representations with respect to the Hopf subalgebra
$\mathbf {U}_q(\mathfrak {sl}_{n+1})$
and describe the graded multiplicities of their graded limits in terms of lattice points of convex polytopes. Combined with Brito, Chari, and Moura (2018, Journal of the Institute of Mathematics of Jussieu 17, 75–105), we obtain the graded decomposition of stable prime Demazure modules in level two integrable highest weight representations of the corresponding affine Lie algebra.
Results of the surgical treatment of patients with traumatic injuries to the cervical trachea at Viet Duc University Hospital in the period 2017-2022
Authors: Nguyen Viet Thang , Vu Ngoc Tu , Phung Duy Hong Son 
Published: October 2023

Background: Tracheal trauma is one of the increasingly common airway injuries in Vietnam and requires emergency treatment due to the risk of severe and acute respiratory failure, threatening the patient's life. Treatment of tracheal trauma depends on the extent of the injury; surgery plays an important role in saving the patient's life in emergencies, and surgery also solves the complications caused by trauma to the trachea. This study was conducted to describe some important features of the diagnosis and outcome of surgical treatment of tracheal trauma.
Patients and methods: This is a descriptive, cross-sectional, retrospective study of all patients who were diagnosed with cervical tracheal trauma and treated by surgery at Viet Duc University Hospital from January 2017 to December 2022.
Results: There were 23 patients, mainly male, who accounted for 83%. The average age was 37 ± 17.8 (31 - 59) years old. Traffic accidents was the main cause, accounting for 73.9%. The likely location of injury was the Tracheo-Laryngeal junction, accounting for 73.9%. The disease was often associated with multiple traumas. Shortness of breath and subcutaneous emphysema were the most frequent symptoms. X-rays, tracheobronchoscopy, and computed tomography were valuable imaging diagnostic tools. 78.3% of patients were discharged with good results. One patient died during a hospital stay because of multiple traumas. One case had a complication of stenosis of the trachea. The results show that early surgery gives better results than late treatment.
Conclusion: Initial management of tracheal injury should be done quickly at the first emergency facility, where ensuring airways open is a top priority. The correct indication and early surgery gives good results and reduces complications.
Keywords: Cervical tracheal injury, tracheal trauma surgery, Viet Duc University Hospital
