Global, regional, and national burden of children and adolescents with acute lymphoblastic leukemia from 1990 to 2021: a systematic analysis for the global burden of disease study 2021
Authors: Wang Lei , Yao Xue , Yang Linhua 
Published: January 2025

BackgroundAcute lymphoblastic leukemia (ALL) is a common cancer in children and adolescents, severely affecting their survival and health. With the discovery of new drugs and improved treatment options, the survival rate of ALL in children and adolescents has improved significantly.MethodsWe used the GBD (global burden of disease) database to collect patients aged 0–19 years (0–5 years, 5–9 years, 10–14 years, 15–19 years) diagnosed with ALL between 1990 and 2021. Disease status and change were analyzed by learning about the prevalence, death, incidence, DALYs (disability-adjusted life years), percentage change, and the estimated annual percentage change (EAPC).ResultsIn 2021, there were 53,485 new cases of childhood and adolescent ALL, 23,991 deaths, and an estimated 1960,922 DALYs. Incidence, deaths and DALYs have declined globally, with only a rise in low-SDI regions. In 2021, middle-SDI regions have the highest cases of prevalence, incidence, deaths, and DALYs, accounting for approximately one-third of the global total. High-SDI regions have the lowest deaths and DALYs. East Asia has the highest prevalence and incidence. Australasia has the lowest death and DALYs. From 1990 to 2021, children and adolescent ALL deaths and DALYs show a declining trend in about 72.5% of countries, with only Sub-Saharan Africa showing an increase. The prevalence of ALL in children and adolescents is higher in males, with the highest cases in patients under 5 years of age.ConclusionOur study highlights the trend of decreasing deaths and DALYs of ALL in children and adolescents. However, there is a need to improve healthcare prevention and timely standardized treatment in developing countries and less developed regions.
Hiérarchies et discriminations de genre en RDA : inconnue, impensé ou aporie d’une « société fermée » ?
Authors: Goepper Sibylle 
Published: January 2025

Le présent article aborde la question des rapports de genre dans le contexte de la société fermée (geschlossene Gesellschaft) que constitua la RDA de 1949 à 1990. Prenant pour point de départ une série d’interviews d’artistes plasticien.ne.s portant sur les discriminations et les hiérarchies de genre dans les milieux artistiques officiels et non officiels d’Allemagne de l’Est, il entreprend dans un premier temps de réexaminer à la lumière de travaux récents la réalité de l’égalité femmes-hommes dans l’État socialiste qui se vanta dès les années 1960 d’avoir « réglé » la question de la condition féminine. Il se penche ensuite sur les rares discours adoptant cette perspective à l’époque de la RDA et par la suite, tant du côté des artistes que des critiques et des commentateur.trice.s. Force est alors de constater que cette approche est encore à l’heure actuelle majoritairement rejetée par les acteur.trice.s, d’une part parce qu’elle est ressentie comme un outil analytique « occidental », impropre à saisir la réalité à l’Est, d’autre part parce que les processus de différenciation entre femmes et hommes semblent à leurs yeux moins pertinents que le clivage Est-Ouest.
Femmes prisonnières politiques : du témoignage à la fiction
Authors: Semilla Duran María A. 
Published: January 2025

Alicia Kozameh, argentine, écrivaine, militante révolutionnaire dans les années 70 en Argentine, a été pendant quatre ans une prisonnière politique sous la dictature des années 70. Elle a pris cette expérience comme point de départ pour nombre de ses fictions, mais elle a été également compilatrice et éditrice, avec d’autres camarades ayant connu le même sort, d’un livre qui réunit les lettres envoyées par les femmes qui ont partagé le même pavillon à la prison de Devoto, à Buenos Aires (Nosotras, presas politicas). Ce qui nous intéresse est, d’un côté, explorer les procédés utilisés pour que le passage de l’expérience à la littérature s’opère ; d’autre, la configuration de sa subjectivité face à l’enfermement et les réponses qu’elle a été capable d’articuler pour résister. Parallèlement, nous voudrions analyser les témoignages non fictionnalisés, où les voix qui s’expriment sont nombreuses, pour explorer la gamme des constructions subjectives qui permettent de conserver le statut de l’humanité dans un contexte de négation de la personne, et les façons de donner sens aux “nous” par-dessus le “je”, au collectif par-dessus l’individuel.
Enfermement et violence de genre : Le viste la cara a Dios/Beya de Gabriela Cabezón Cámara
Authors: Rosier Marie 
Published: January 2025

Gabriela Cabezón Cámara publie entre 2012 et 2013 la nouvelle Le viste la cara a Dios dans une version e-book puis dans une version graphique sous le titre de Beya (Le viste la cara a Dios). Ces deux ouvrages se focalisent sur la traite des femmes dans une province de Buenos Aires. Dans cet article, nous analyserons les dispositifs narratifs et graphiques de la représentation de l’enfermement et de la violence extrême exercée contre ce corps féminin réifié, chose biopolitique. Nous montrerons également que dans la nouvelle et le roman graphique, Gabriela Cabezón Cámara met en scène des modalités de résistances, de dépassements face à cette violence sexiste qui font de Beya une anti-Belle au bois dormant (Bella durmiente qui devient Beya). En effet, l’écrivaine, à travers divers procédés littéraires, intertextes et références culturelles subvertit, contourne, les normes qui font du corps de la femme enfermée un objet de consommation sexuelle et un espace de violence sans fin.
L’œuvre romanesque de Wendy Delorme : perpétuation et (ré)élaboration du genre ou la (ré)assignation comme dépassement et résistance queer
Authors: Alonso Béatrice 
Published: January 2025

L’article se propose d’observer comment la production romanesque de Wendy Delorme (ré)organise et (ré)assigne son genre, par une grammaire du corps d’abord performé comme ultraféminin (remise en question par réappropriation, resignification du stigmate), pour résister à l’enfermement hétéronormatif puis dans la revendication queer d’une réassignation transgressive. Il s’agit de présenter et d’analyser les deux premiers opus de sa production littéraire : Quatrième génération (2007) et Insurrections ! En territoire sexuel (2009), où l’autrice réinvestit l’espace marginal de la pornographie pour défendre la performativité du genre élaborant pour ce faire des stratégies narratives et esthétiques, afin de résister au carcan héténormatif. Son écriture est une résistance esthétique à l’enfermement politique d’un genre dans un sexe et une sexualité.

Published: January 2025

Abstract
Ga/In alloy, known for its low melting point and liquid state at room temperature, is a promising material for producing fine metal particles. Conventional methods often face challenges in efficiency or particle uniformity, particularly for particle sizes below 10 μm. Ultrasonic processing offers a potential solution, enabling efficient production of microscale and sub-microscale particles. This study examined the effects of ultrasonic frequency and power on the particle size distribution of Ga/In alloy. The effect on particle refinement of adding a second ultrasonic irradiation step was also evaluated. High-speed video imaging was used to capture the dispersion process in real time. The results indicate that particle size depended strongly on ultrasonic frequency and power, with higher frequencies yielding finer particles. The secondary irradiation effectively improved size distribution and dispersion. These findings provide insights into the controlled formation of metal microparticles using ultrasonic techniques.
Are we optimizing medical students’ preparation for clerkship? A content analysis of narrative comments on clinical skills during preclinical training

Published: January 2025

Introduction: The progression from preclinical medical training to clerkship is a pivotal yet steep transition for medical students. Effective feedback on clinical skills during preclinical training can better equip students for clerkship and allows time for them to address difficulties promptly. The goal of this study was to explore whether and how narrative comments at this stage were being leveraged to achieve this transition.
Methods: We conducted a content analysis to categorize narrative comments on the clinical skills of two cohorts of third-year preclinical students at one academic institution.
Results: Teachers made narrative comments for 272 students. Each comment was divided into analysis units (n = 1,314 units). Comments were either general (n = 187) or focused on attitude (n = 628), knowledge and cognitive processes (n = 357), or clinical reasoning (n = 142). They were abundantly positive (n = 1,190) and marginally negative (n = 39). Few (6%) contained suggestions for improvement.
Discussion: In this study, narrative comments on clinical skills before clerkship seemed minimally helpful, as they were overwhelmingly positive and seldom offered suggestions. This could suggest missed opportunities for early interventions. Pre-clerkship narrative comments could potentially be optimized by increasing emphasis on clinical reasoning, addressing challenges early and providing actionable steps for improvement.

Authors: Kokorelias Kristina M , Sheikh Muhammad Harris , Naimi Maryam , Ho Bernice , Wong Edwin W , Brooks Stephanie G , Gandell Dov , Berger Arielle S 
Published: January 2025

Background: Professionalism is vital in medicine, yet gaps exist in its teaching within post-graduate medical education (PGME).
Methods: We developed an eight-session curriculum on professionalism for geriatrics residents at the University of Toronto. Topics included personal-professional identity, physician well-being, communication, and leadership, incorporating a focus on self-reflection throughout. We evaluated the curriculum in two ways: (1) we captured immediate reactions using standard evaluations with Likert-scale questions on teaching effectiveness. (2) Graduated residents participated in semi-structured interviews to assess deeper reactions and longer-term impacts on professional identity and practice. Interview transcripts were rigorously analyzed using thematic.
Results: The teaching effectiveness scores averaged from 80 written evaluations were excellent: 4.45/5 (89%). We interviewed 12 of 22 eligible graduates (55%). Thematic analysis demonstrated that the curriculum impacted residents in three key thematic areas: (1) it led participants to understand their role as physicians in a more comprehensive way, while staying consistent with their personal values and strengths. (2) Communication skills training in particular equipped learners with important skills needed to enact their professional standards. (3) Through developing a supportive community and practicing mindful self-reflection, participants reported improvements in their well-being.
Conclusions: This paper demonstrates that professionalism can and should be integrated into the formal curriculum of post-graduate medical education. Key success factors in our study included a focus on fostering peer support and training in communication skills as a concrete method to actualize personal professional standards.
Challenges and Barriers to Women's Access and Participation in the ASGM Sector in Macalder Region of Migori County, Kenya
Authors: Wangui Kamande C. , Willy Mwangi 
Published: January 2025

Artisanal Small-Scale Gold Mining (ASGM) is a significant source of income for millions of people in developing nations. Globally, women provide approximately 30 to 50% of the workforce in the ASGM sector. Women in developing countries face a number of challenges in access and participation in the ASGM sector. These include; social norms and taboos, inequalities in income distribution, discrimination in access to and control of mineral resources and exposure to gender-based violence. The objective of this study was to assess the challenges and barriers to women's access and participation in the ASGM in the Macalder region of Migori County in Kenya. This study was anchored on the Social Relations Gender approach to argue that the social construction of gender in African societies has tended to disadvantage women in the ASGM sector. This has created a system of subordination and exploitation of women miners in the Macalder region. This study adopted an explanatory research design. The study used both clustered probability and purposive sampling. A total of 100 respondents were selected for field interviews. Clustered probability sampling was used to select 90 men and women gold miners in the Osiri-Matanda gold mines in the Macalder region. Purposive sampling was used to select the lead 10 respondents who included officials of non-governmental organizations and the local administrators for interviews. This study employed both quantitative and qualitative methods of data analysis and interpretation. From the findings, the researcher concluded that cultural and societal notions inhibit women's access and participation in the ASGM sector in the Macalder region. The study recommends that the women miners be empowered to cushion them against exploitation by men. It is further recommended that both National and local governments institute policies and legislation to actualize gender mainstreaming in the ASGM sector to allow women miners to reap economic benefits for socioeconomic development
Understanding artificial intelligence knowledge and usage among college students: Insights from a survey on classroom, coursework, and personal applications
Authors: Basch Corey , Hillyer Grace , Gold Bailey , Yousaf Helen 
Published: January 2025

Objective: This cross-sectional study involved distributing a survey to a sample of undergraduate college students AI-related knowledge, attitudes, and behaviors.
Method: A total of 258 out of 319 college students enrolled in a personal wellness elective completed this survey during class.
Results: Most participants (53.5%) reported familiarity with AI in general, often learning about it through the internet (79.1%). Participants who were frequent AI users more often said they were familiar with AI in general (62.3% vs. 47.1%, p = 0.04) and for educational purposes (52.3% vs. 34.8%, p = 0.02) and more frequently encountered AI information during class (42.5% vs. 23.9%, p = 0.002) compared with infrequent AI users. Frequent AI users more often agreed that AI makes learning easier (67.9% vs. 47.8%, p = 0.007), that AI use in school is ethical (27.2% vs. 8.1%, p<0.001), that AI improves writing skills (78.5% vs. 56.5%, p <0.001), improves critical thinking (36.2% vs. 19.7%, p =0.004), and improves interpersonal communication (38.3% vs. 24.8%, p = 0.035) compared to participants who less frequently used AI. Infrequent AI users more often agreed that using AI in class or for homework was cheating (56.6%, 25.2%, p <0.001), more often disagreed that they trusted AI as safe (51.1% vs. 26.2%, p <0.001), and more often turned to family and friends for information about AI (29.0% vs. 17.8%, p = 0.04) than frequent AI users.
Conclusion: Research into the role of AI in education is still preliminary, but this work can serve as a foundation for future studies.
Jupiter Evolutionary Models Incorporating Stably Stratified Regions
Authors: Tejada Arevalo Roberto , Sur Ankan , Su Yubo , Burrows Adam 
Published: January 2025

Abstract
We address the issue of which broad set of initial conditions for the planet Jupiter best matches the current presence of a “fuzzy core” of heavy elements, while at the same time comporting with measured parameters such as its effective temperature, atmospheric helium abundance, radius, and atmospheric metallicity. Our focus is on the class of fuzzy cores that can survive convective mixing to the present day and on the unique challenges of an inhomogeneous Jupiter with stably stratified regions now demanded by the Juno gravity data. Hence, using the new code APPLE, we attempt to put a nonadiabatic Jupiter into an evolutionary context. This requires not only a mass density model, the major relevant byproduct of the Juno data, but a thermal model that is subject to interior heat transport, a realistic atmospheric flux boundary, a helium rain algorithm, and the latest equation of state. The result is a good fit to most major thermal, compositional, and structural constraints that still preserve a fuzzy core and that should inform future more detailed models of the current Jupiter in the context of its evolution from birth.
Not Just Winds: Why Models Find That Binary Black Hole Formation Is Metallicity-dependent, while Binary Neutron Star Formation Is Not

Abstract
Both detailed and rapid population studies alike predict that binary black hole (BHBH) formation is orders of magnitude more efficient at low metallicity than high metallicity, while binary neutron star (NSNS) formation remains mostly flat with metallicity, and black hole–neutron star mergers show intermediate behavior. This finding is a key input to employ double compact objects as tracers of low-metallicity star formation, as spectral sirens, and for merger rate calculations. Yet the literature offers various (sometimes contradicting) explanations for these trends. We investigate the dominant cause for the metallicity dependence of double compact object formation. We find that the BHBH formation efficiency at low metallicity is set by initial condition distributions, and conventional simulations suggest that about one in eight interacting binary systems with sufficient mass to form black holes will lead to a merging BHBH. We further find that the significance of metallicities in double compact object formation is a question of formation channel. The stable mass transfer and chemically homogeneous evolution channels mainly diminish at high metallicities due to changes in stellar radii, while the common envelope channel is primarily impacted by the combined effects of stellar winds and mass-scaled natal kicks. Outdated giant wind prescriptions exacerbate the latter effect, suggesting that BHBH formation may be much less metallicity-dependent than previously assumed. NSNS formation efficiency remains metallicity-independent, as they form exclusively through the common envelope channel, with natal kicks that are assumed to be uncorrelated with mass. Forthcoming gravitational-wave observations will provide valuable constraints on these findings.
Resonant Damping and Instability of Propagating Magnetohydrodynamic Body Modes in a Flux Tube with Shear Flow under Photospheric Conditions
Authors: Yu D. J. 
Published: January 2025

Abstract
The influence of shear flow on resonant absorption is theoretically investigated for propagating magnetohydrodynamic body modes in cusp (slow) and Alfvén continua in a cylindrical flux tube under photospheric conditions. An analytical dispersion relation for resonant absorption in the presence of flow shear is developed by assuming a thin boundary layer. The numerical solutions reveal that the presence of flow shear has a rather negative impact on the resonant absorption of the body mode compared to the surface modes. As the flow shear increases, it first slightly increases the strength of resonant absorption for the forward body modes and then decreases it below the strength of no flow shear case for both resonances. It is also found that as the flow shear increases, the range of the axial wavenumber and wave frequency for the cusp resonance decreases when the wave frequency is close to the upper boundary of the cusp continuum. For the backward body modes, the strength of the resonance absorption decreases with the increment of the flow shear. When the flow shear is sufficiently large, the waves propagate in the forward direction, and their amplitude grows with a small increment.
