Abstract
Background
The relationship between adolescent obesity and eating disorders is an issue that needs urgent attention. Screening for eating disorders is as important as dietary interventions to treat obesity. This study aimed to determine the relationship between hedonic hunger, food addiction, and night eating syndrome, which are considered potential risk factors for obesity, and body mass index (BMI) in adolescents.

Methods
The data were collected through an online questionnaire. The “Power of Food Scale (PFS)” was used to assess hedonic hunger; the “Yale Food Addiction Scale for Children 2.0 (dYFAS-C 2.0)” was used to assess food addiction; and the “Night Eating Questionnaire (NEQ)” was used to assess night eating syndrome (NES)”. BMI was calculated using self-reported height and weight values of adolescents. The mediated structural model analysis was performed to evaluate the effect of hedonic hunger on BMI z score via food addiction and NES.

Results
The study was conducted with 614 voluntary adolescents aged between 11 and 18 years. The dYFAS-C 2.0 and NEQ scores were found to be higher in adolescents with overweight and obesity, and the BMI z-score of the adolescents had significant positive correlation with their PFS scores (p < .001). Hedonic hunger has no direct effect on BMI independent of food addiction and NES (β = − 0.051, p = .468), but when the total indirect effect is evaluated with the bootstrap analysis, it was found that one-unit increase in hedonic hunger score increases BMI z-score by approximately 0.22 units (β = 0.223, SE = 0.046, 95% CI 0.131–0.313). Hedonic hunger, food addiction, and NES together explained 5.2% of the total variance in BMI z score.

Conclusion
This study showed that hedonic hunger significantly predicted BMI z-score in adolescents through food addiction and NES. This emphasizes the critical importance of evaluating adolescents in terms of hedonic hunger, food addiction, and NES in the prevention, diagnosis, and treatment of obesity.
New understandings meet old treatments: putting a contemporary face on established protocols
Authors: Byrne Susan M. , Fursland Anthea 
Published: February 2024

AbstractIn the twenty years since the publication of the most widely used treatment manuals describing evidence-based therapies for eating disorders, there have been some substantial advances in the field. New methods of delivering treatments have been trialled and our perception of mental health has advanced; significant cultural changes have led to shifts in our societal landscape; and new technologies have allowed for more in-depth research to be conducted. As a result, our understanding of eating disorders and their treatment has broadened considerably. However, these new insights have not necessarily been translated into improved clinical practice. This paper highlights the changes we consider to have had the greatest impact on our work as experienced clinical psychologists in the field and suggests a list of new learnings that might be incorporated into clinical practice and research design.

PURPOSE To compare the cumulative incidence of mental disorders among adolescents and young adults (AYAs) diagnosed with cancer with the general population and their unaffected siblings. METHODS A retrospective, population-based, matched cohort design was used to investigate the impact of cancer diagnosis on mental disorders among individuals age 15-39 diagnosed between 1989 and 2019. Two cancer-free cohorts were identified: matched population-based and sibling cohorts. Outcomes included incidence of mood and anxiety disorders, substance use disorders, suicide outcomes, psychotic disorders, and any of the preceding four categories within 5 years of cancer diagnosis. Competing risk regression was used to estimate adjusted subhazard ratios (aSHR) and 95% CIs. RESULTS Among 3,818 AYAs with cancer matched to the population-based cancer-free cohort, individuals with cancer were more likely to be diagnosed with incident mental disorders than those without cancer; the risk was highest immediately after a cancer diagnosis and decreased over time with aSHR [95% CI] for mood and anxiety disorders at 0-6 months (11.27 [95% CI, 6.69 to 18.97]), 6-12 months (2.35 [95% CI, 1.54 to 3.58]), and 12-24 months (2.06 [95% CI, 1.55 to 2.75]); for substance use disorders at 0-6 months (2.73 [95% CI, 1.90 to 3.92]); for psychotic disorders at 0-6 months (4.69 [95% CI, 2.07 to 10.65]); and for any mental disorder at 0-6 months (4.46 [95% CI, 3.41 to 5.85]), 6-12 months (1.56 [95% CI, 1.14 to 2.14]), and 12-24 months (1.7 [95% CI, 1.36 to 2.13]) postcancer diagnosis. In sibling comparison, cancer diagnosis was associated with a higher incidence of mood and anxiety and any mental disorder during first 6 months of cancer diagnosis. CONCLUSION AYAs with cancer experience a greater incidence of mental disorders after cancer diagnosis relative to population-based and sibling cohorts without cancer, primarily within first 2 years, underscoring the need to address mental health concerns during this period.
Elements of care, part 2: maintaining a safe environment
Authors: Peate Ian 
Published: February 2024

Maintaining a safe environment is one of the 12 activities of living identified in the Roper-Logan-Tierney model (2000) . Maintaining a safe environment is a basic survival skill, which involves managing our own safety and adapting our physical and intellectual abilities to manage risk. This article focuses on the activity of maintaining a safe environment in health and illness for the duration of a person's lifespan. The person's dependence and independence in the activity are discussed, along with factors influencing the activity. Understanding hazards in the care setting and how to promote patient safety effectively are key attributes of a safe and effective care provision.

Published: February 2024

We demonstrate that 3-mm-thick, periodically poled LiNbO3 enables energy scaling of a
nonresonant optical parametric oscillator operated in the narrowband
mode with a volume Bragg grating at the signal wavelength. Utilizing
the full available pump power at 1064 nm, we obtained maximum
average powers of 2.25 and 2.08 W for the signal
(1.922 µm) and idler (2.383 µm) pulses at 10 kHz,
at a total conversion efficiency of 32.8%, which represents a fourfold
increase in terms of peak powers over our previous work. The signal
and idler spectral linewidths were ∼1nm, with pulse lengths of ∼6ns and an idler beam propagation factor
of ∼5.
Mélange et sexualité dans les cités platoniciennes. (La dimension politique de la sexualité dans les cités platoniciennes)
Authors: Montoya María del Pilar 
Published: February 2024

La gestion de la sexualité dans la République et dans les Lois est l’un des sujets qui inspirent la thèse aristotélicienne selon laquelle la cité de Magnésie n’est qu’une version légèrement modifiée de la cité fictive décrite dans la République. Cette idée réapparaît à l’époque contemporaine sous la forme de débats passionnés, dont l’un des représentants les plus véhéments fut sans doute K. Popper. Dans le premier tome de la Société ouverte et ses ennemis, affirme que les «légères» variations introduites à Magnésie furent motivées par l’espoir platonicien de mener à bien son ancien dessein. De sorte que, à l’exception de quelques détails insignifiants, les questions traitées dans les Lois seraient tantôt parallèles, tantôt complémentaires à celles de la première πολιτείᾳ.
Partant du principe que les modifications introduites dans la cité des Lois relèvent d’un changement sensible de position d’un dialogue à l’autre, cette étude s’attachera plus particulièrement à l’analyse des arguments relatifs à la gestion de la sexualité et du mélange des classes dans la République et dans les Lois. Sans ignorer que la finalité demeure la même dans les deux cités, nous voulons montrer que la qualité des méthodes par lesquelles l’Étranger athénien cherche à réaliser l’unité de la cité magnète fait transparaître sa volonté de bâtir une constitution politique plus adaptée à la nature de ses destinataires, une constitution qui repose sur la conscience des limites de l’autorité politique face au pouvoir de résistance de certaines tendances.
Comments on the Signaling Theory of IPO Underpricing and Investor Protection Laws
Authors: Kim Jeong-Yoo 
Published: February 2024

Abstract
It has been widely known that good firms use lower IPO prices to signal their superior prospects to investors. The underlying intuition is that good-type firms signal their type by underpricing their initial issue of shares, because investors can rationally infer that only the best can recoup the signaling cost from subsequent issues. In this paper, we argue that the intuition is not complete. We show that a good firm always has an incentive to deviate to raise the IPO price slightly from its equilibrium price if the price is the only signaling device, implying that signaling by underpricing is not an equilibrium phenomenon in the case of one-dimensional signal. Then, we show that if the firm can choose the equity fraction to be sold as well, a good-type firm can signal its high profitability by choosing a low equity fraction. In this case, a good-type firm engages in underpricing, but it cannot be a signal because both types choose same prices in equilibrium. We also discuss the effect of investor protection laws on IPO underpricing.

Comparative analysis of bio-based amino acid surfactants obtained via Diels–Alder reaction of cyclic anhydrides
Authors: Jolmes Tristan , Tayari Siwar , Bresser Marc , Müller Sonja , Glüsen Birgit , Schörken Ulrich 
Published: February 2024

Abstract
Current changes in environmental legislation and customer demands set an urge for the development of more sustainable surfactants. Thus, the objective of this work was the development of novel environmentally friendly amino acid surfactants. Combining Diels–Alder cyclization of myrcene with maleic or citraconic anhydride followed by ring opening with amino acids enabled a synthesis route with a principal 100% atom economy. Variation of amino acids resulted in a large structural variety of anionic and amphoteric surfactants. Lysine gave access to either a mono-acylated product bearing a cationic side chain or a bi-acylated gemini surfactant. First, anhydride precursors were synthesized in yields of >90% in a Diels–Alder reaction under microwave radiation and subsequent amino acid coupling in aqueous environment gave fully bio-based surfactants in good yields and purity. Physicochemical characterization showed an enhanced decrease in surface tension upon addition of amino acids to the myrcene–anhydride backbone, resulting in a minimal value of 31 mN·m−1 for gemini–lysine. Foamabilitiy and foam stability were significantly increased at skin-friendly pH 5.5 by incorporation of amino acids. The carboxylic groups of surfactants with arginine were esterified with ethanol to access cationic compounds. Comparative analysis revealed moderate antimicrobial effects against yeast, Gram-positive bacteria, and Gram-negative bacteria.
Biosynthesis of silver nanoparticles on yellow phosphorus slag and its application in organic coatings

Published: February 2024

Abstract
This work concentrated on the decoration of AgNPs to yellow phosphorus slag (YPS) using both chemical (NaBH4) and biological (Areca catechu nut and Jasminum subtriplinerve leaf extracts) reducing agents, as well as its use as antibacterial and enhancement additives for organic coatings based on acrylic emulsion resin. It is the first study about the decoration of AgNPs on the surface of YPS using bio-reduction agents (A. catechu nut and J. subtriplinerve leaf extracts). The characteristics of YPS decorated by AgNPs (YPS@AgNPs) were determined using attenuated total reflectance infrared spectroscopy, scanning electron microscopy, X-ray diffraction, ultraviolet-visible spectroscopy and dynamic light scattering methods. To quantify the amount of AgNPs in YPS@AgNPs, atomic absorption spectroscopy was used. The results of YPS@AgNPs fabrication confirmed that the above green reduction agents had a higher efficiency and were more suitable than the chemical reduction agent (NaBH4). Moreover, the ability to inhibit the growth of bacteria strains of YPS@AgNPs using the J. subtriplinerve leaf extract as a reducing agent gave the best result among the three agents. In particular, the bactericidal activity of YPS@AgNPs against the new marine bacterium, Pseudomonas stutzeri B27, was evaluated, and it was found that YPS@AgNPs can inhibit the growth of an antibiotic-resistant bacterium, P. stutzeri B27. They enhance not only the mechanical properties but also the bactericidal ability of the water-borne acrylic resin coating.

Abstract
The programme of the German Congress for Laboratory Medicine 2022 was essentially designed by the divisions of the German Society for Clinical Chemistry and Laboratory Medicine (DGKL). Almost all chairpersons of the divisions organised a 90-min symposium on current topics, i.e. conceptualised the symposia and invited speakers. For this article all chairpersons summarised the lectures that were given within the symposia. The DGKL’s work is structured into 5 areas of expertise: Molecular Diagnostics, Learning & Teaching, Quality & Management, Laboratory & Diagnostics and Biobanks & Informatics. The areas of expertise are in turn subdivided into divisions. About the history of the establishment of this new structure within the DGKL you can find information in the editorial of this issue.

Understand how machine learning impact lung cancer research from 2010 to 2021: A bibliometric analysis
Authors: Chen Zijian , Liu Yangqi , Lin Zeying , Huang Weizhe 
Published: February 2024

Abstract
Advances in lung cancer research applying machine learning (ML) technology have generated many relevant literature. However, there is absence of bibliometric analysis review that aids a comprehensive understanding of this field and its progress. Present article for the first time performed a bibliometric analysis to clarify research status and focus from 2010 to 2021. In the analysis, a total of 2,312 relevant literature were searched and retrieved from the Web of Science Core Collection database. We conducted a bibliometric analysis and further visualization. During that time, exponentially growing annual publication and our model have shown a flourishing research prospect. Annual citation reached the peak in 2017. Researchers from United States and China have produced most of the relevant literature and strongest partnership between them. Medical image analysis and Nature appeared to bring more attention to the public. The computer-aided diagnosis, precision medicine, and survival prediction were the focus of research, reflecting the development trend at that period. ML did make a big difference in lung cancer research in the past decade.
On Traces, Clues, and Fiction: Carlo Ginzburg and the Practice of Archaeology
Authors: Ribeiro Artur 
Published: February 2024

Abstract
In recent years, archaeological research has relied on large datasets, both temporally and geographically, with some archaeologists discussing that there should be a shift towards a more scientific form of conducting archaeological research called “macroarchaeology.” Ironically, and contradictorily, this shift towards large-scale research has involved the use of inductive approaches, which means that archaeological material needs to be converted into universal quantitative values. The inductive approaches used by archaeologists today, as argued by Karl Popper, and other authors in recent years, cannot be considered scientific in the strict sense of the word, since there is always a degree of uncertainty in inductive reasoning. This study suggests that archaeological data can be considered as traces of the past, clues that allow us to reconstruct past phenomena. As Carlo Ginzburg’s evidential paradigm demonstrates, thinking of the past in terms of traces and clues is much more scientific than appears at first. In addition to traces and clues, a second interpretative procedure can be conducted on data. Based on Ginzburg’s conjectural paradigm and discussion on fiction, we can recognize the past as real, while at the same time, conjecture the several ways past agents could have acted otherwise.
Identification of the role of TG2 on the expression of TGF-β, TIMP-1 and TIMP-2 in aged skin
Authors: Ergülen Elvan , Akdoğan Güner Gül 
Published: February 2024

Abstract

Objectives
Transglutaminase 2 (TG2) is a unique protein having enzymatic and nonenzymatic functions that have been implicated in various biological and pathological processes such as cell survival and apoptosis, cell signaling, differentiation, adhesion and migration, wound healing and inflammation. As reported in previous studies, TG2 expression and activity increase by age suggesting that TG2 possibly has roles in cellular aging process. In this study, we aimed to explore the role of TG2 in chronological skin aging through its impact on the expression of some important extracellular matrix (ECM) proteins including TGF-β, TIMP-1 and TIMP-2.

Methods
We have compared TG2 expression and activity in young and in vitro chronologically aged human dermal fibroblasts via Western blot and in situ TG2 activity assays. Afterwards, we inhibited TG2 expression via siRNA transfection and activity via active site inhibitor of TG2 separately in aged dermal fibroblasts and monitored the expression levels of TGF-β, TIMP-1 and TIMP-2 in these cells by Western blot and compared to that of untreated control cells.

Results
We obtained evidence that both TG2 expression and activity increase in aged cells. However, protein levels of TGF-β, TIMP-1 and TIMP-2 do not exhibit any significant difference in TG2 downregulated or TG2 activity inhibited aged cells compared to control cells.

Conclusions
Our results indicate that changes in the expression and activity of TG2 in (in vitro) chronologically aged human dermal fibroblasts do not impact the expression patterns of TGF-β, TIMP-1 and TIMP-2 proteins.
