Published: December 2023

AbstractHemicellulose and lignin, which are main components of wood biomass with different structures, were carbonized and activated by KOH to prepare wood biomass‐derived porous carbons (WBM‐PCs). The resulting WBM‐PCs were characterized by SEM, XRD, Raman, FI‐IR, and N2‐adsorption/desorption isotherms, and successfully utilized as an effective modifier on the glassy carbon electrode surface (GCE) for simultaneous electrochemical determination of dihydroxybenzene isomers, i. e. hydroquinone (HQ) and catechol (CC), which are highly toxic and non‐degradable. The resulting WBM‐PCs‐modified GCEs allowed simultaneous determination of HQ and CC with cyclic voltammetry and constant‐potential amperometry. The linear range for determination of HQ by hemicellulose‐derived carbon (HC) was from 1.0 to 3000 μmol/L with the limit of detection (LOD) of 1.05 μmol/L, and that for CC was from 1.0 to 5000 μmol/L with LOD of 0.4 μmol/L. For lignin‐derived carbon (LC), the linear range for HQ was from 0.5 to 1000 μmol/L with LOD of 0.095 μmol/L, and that for CC was from 0.5 to 3000 μmol/L with LOD of 0.15 μmol/L. These results imply that wood biomass (hemicellulose and lignin), which is sustainable, renewable and environment‐friendly material, have potential as an effective precursor of electrochemically active porous carbon materials applicable to various electrochemical sensors.

AbstractDisasters can lead to decreased functionality in medical practice. This study aimed to quantitatively measure presenteeism and to determine the role of coping strategies among disaster‐victim doctors living in a city affected by the 2023‐Turkey earthquakes. This cross‐sectional study included 220 doctors reached through social media groups using the convenience sampling method. A weak negative relationship was found between presenteeism and positive re‐evaluation, one of the coping strategies with earthquake stress. A weak negative correlation was found between the Positive Reappraisal sub‐dimension score of the Coping with Earthquake Stress Scale (CESS) and presenteeism (r = −0.299, p < 0.001). In the linear regression analysis, the sub‐dimensions that contributed significantly to the model were found to be the Positive Reappraisal sub‐dimensions of CESS, whose increase resulted in a decrease in presenteeism and Seeking Social Support sub‐dimension, whose increase caused an increase in presenteeism. Presenteeism was higher in those who lost their loved ones, had damage in their workplace/home, and thought they were helpless or in danger. Both material and emotional factors decreased functionality at work after an earthquake. We recommend developing material and psychological support strategies to reduce presenteeism in post‐disaster periods.
“Sweat‐Driven” MXene Composites with Energy‐Storage and Thermal‐Management Multifunctions: A Platform for Versatile Electronic Skins

Published: December 2023

AbstractMost exogenous electronic skins (e‐skins) currently face challenges of complex structure and poor compatibility with the human body. Utilizing human secretions (e.g., sweat) to develop e‐skins is an effective solution strategy. Here, a new kind of “sweat‐driven” e‐skin is proposed, which realizes energy‐storage and thermal‐management multifunctions. Through the layer‐by‐layer assembly of MXene‐carbon nanotube (CNT) composite with paper, lightweight and versatile e‐skins based on supercapacitors and actuators are fabricated. Long CNTs wrap and entangle MXene nanosheets, enhancing their long‐distance conductivity. Furthermore, the CNT network overcomes the structural collapse of MXene in sweat, improving the energy‐storage performance of e‐skin. The “sweat‐driven” all‐in‐one supercapacitor with a trilayer structure is patternable, which absorbs sweat as electrolyte and harnesses the ions therein to store energy, exhibiting an areal capacitance of 282.3 mF cm−2 and a high power density (2117.8 µW cm−2). The “sweat‐driven” actuator with a bilayer structure can be driven by moisture (bending curvature of 0.9 cm−1) and sweat for personal thermal management. Therefore, the paper serves as a separator, actuating layer, patternable layer, sweat extractor, and reservoir. The “sweat‐driven” MXene‐CNT composite provides a platform for versatile e‐skins, which achieve the interaction with humans and offer insights into the development of multifunctional wearable electronics.

Published: December 2023

AbstractAnode materials with high‐rate performances and good electrochemical stabilities are urgently required for the grid‐scale application of lithium‐ion batteries (LIBs). Theoretically, transition metal borides are desirable candidates because of their appropriate working potentials and good conductivities. However, the reported metal borides exhibit poor performances owing to their lack of favorable Li+ storage sites and poor structural stabilities during long‐term charging/discharging. In this work, a ternary alkali metal boride, Li1.2Ni2.5B2, which displays a high Li+ storage capacity and remarkable electrochemical stability and an excellent rate performance is studied. In contrast to conventional transition metal borides, the introduction of Li atoms facilitates the formation of 1D Ni/B‐based honeycomb channels during synthesis. This Ni/B framework successfully sustains the strain during Li+ intercalation and deintercalation, and thus, the optimized Li1.2Ni2.5B2 anode exhibits an excellent cycle stability over 500 charge/discharge cycles. This electrode also exhibits superior reversible capacities of 350, 183, and 80 mA h g−1 at 0.1, 1, and 5 A g−1, respectively, indicating the considerable potential of the 1D Ni/B framework as a commercially available fast‐charging LIB anode.
Quantifying animals' perception of environmental predictability using anticipatory behavior
Authors: Podturkin Aleksei A. , Krebs Bethany L. , Watters Jason V. 
Published: December 2023

AbstractAnimals under human care often experience predictable daily husbandry events, which can promote the development of anticipatory behavior. Previous research suggests even short delays in the arrival of a predictable, desired outcome can lead to negative welfare outcomes for animals. As such, providing reliable information to animals regarding the onset of important events may be a simple but useful method to support positive welfare. Here we evaluated the quantitative characteristics of anticipatory behavior of a California sea lion at the San Francisco Zoo in three situations (1) when the animal had accurate information about the occurrence of the event (temporally predictable training sessions), (2) when the information was semi‐reliable (unscheduled training session), and (3) when a reliable signal was offered before unscheduled sessions. Results showed that providing a reliable cue resulted in a stronger temporal correlation of anticipation before the beginning of the unscheduled session, similar to the temporally predictable training session. However, providing a reliable cue did not reduce the intensity of the anticipatory behavior. We propose to take into account two aspects of the quantitative characteristics of anticipatory behavior: correlation with time until a desired event (correlation) and intensity, where the correlation indicates the ability of an individual animal to predict the occurrence of an event, and the intensity indicates the degree of sensitivity of the animal to reward. We discuss the implications for animal welfare and husbandry.
Poetics and Politics of the Chronotropics: Introduction
Authors: Ferly Odile , Zimmerman Tegan , Deckman Joshua R. 
Published: December 2023

AbstractTwenty-first-century Caribbean women’s writing evidences an urge to start afresh, to transcend the lingering legacy of enslavement, coloniality, and patriarchy and reverse the damage of the extractive logic that rules an asymmetrical global order. This pan-Caribbean volume presents alternative conceptions of spacetime from across the region and its diaspora, what we call the “chronotropics.” Stemming from chronos (time) and tropos, “a turn,” this term does not merely designate a tropical chronotope, but points to a vocation for social justice and collective healing. The writers gathered here deconstruct the androcentric, western modern understanding of space as delimited, privatized, tamed, and exploitable and of time as quantified, linear, singular, and teleological. They propose instead a poetics and politics of the chronotropics that envisions the Caribbean landscape and temporality as anticolonial, gender inclusive, pluralistic, and non-anthropocentric. Their literary practices perform archival disruption, radical remapping, and epistemic marronnage.Chronotropics: Caribbean Women Writing Spacetime offers critical perspectives on Julia Alvarez, Yolanda Arroyo Pizarro, Vashti Bowlah, Dionne Brand, Erna Brodber, Maryse Condé, Nalo Hopkinson, Rita Indiana, Fabienne Kanor, Karen Lord, Kettly Mars, Pauline Melville, Mayra Montero, Shani Mootoo, Elizabeth Nunez, Ingrid Persaud, Gisèle Pineau, Krystal M.

Imagining Beyond Division, an Environmental Future: Pauline Melville’s The Ventriloquist’s Tale and Elizabeth Nunez’s Prospero’s Daughter.
Authors: Savory Elaine 
Published: December 2023

AbstractToday we have access to models of thought developed by environmental scientists that demonstrate the vital interconnectedness of all life, which Donna Haraway calls “worlding.” Caribbean colonial cultures were built on division, ignorant, indifferent or hostile to the interconnected fabric by which all life exists. Those chickens have come home to roost in our present moment of environmental peril. Pauline Melville’s The Ventriloquist’s Tale (1997) and Elizabeth Nunez’ Prospero’s Daughter (2006) each represents how environmental consciousness becomes an ally in dissolving race, gender and class hierarchy and prejudice. The crossroad has been an important metaphor for the intersection of identities and experiences in Caribbean culture, as in West Africa, but is the central point where separate paths meet. Sympoesis, a term from biological science, embraces the idea of interactive and recreative existence: this is hard to demonstrate in linear argument, as innovative thinkers such as Sylvia Wynter and Kamau Brathwaite have discovered. But creative work can tell stories of transformation, utilizing multiple perspectives. These novels by Nunez and Melville represent a world in which human beings can find connections across difference and across the nonhuman world and in the process discover the nature of freedom.
Chronotopal Slave Ships, Corporeal Archives: Devoir de mémoire in Fabienne Kanor’s Humus and Yolanda Arroyo Pizarro’s las Negras
Authors: Ferly Odile 
Published: December 2023

AbstractIn Fabienne Kanor’s Humus and Yolanda Arroyo Pizarro’s las Negras, the slave ship constitutes a landmark that combines space and time: a chronotope, as Paul Gilroy articulates in The Black Atlantic. A liminal site both catalyst and witness to the collision between distinct worlds, the slave ship represents in the Afrodiasporic imaginary a new point of origin marked by colonial attempts of ontological and epistemic annihilation. Nevertheless, this motif holds the promise of renewal through a reconfiguration of spacetime that forges unforeseen alliances and fuels sociopolitical struggle. Furthermore, Arroyo Pizarro’s and Kanor’s accounts excavate the acts of resistance by Africans and Caribbean people, especially women, systematically expunged from official records. Turning instead to immaterial elements stored in the explicitly sexed body, a dynamic corporeal archive that unsettles the authority of the annals upholding dominant chronicles, these narratives amount to epistemic marronnage. The Martiniquan and Puerto Rican authors fulfil their devoir de mémoire (or obligation to remember) by elaborating a tangible (though fictional) alternative archive that withstands erasure.
Wreckognition: Archival Ruins in Dionne Brand’s The Blue Clerk
Authors: Johnson Erica L. 
Published: December 2023

AbstractDionne Brand’sThe Blue Clerk: Ars Poetica in 59 Versos(2018) is an exquisite address to the problem of the colonial archive and the challenges it poses to literature. Brand has long engaged this issue in her writing, and in her recent work of poetry she structures her interrogation with two figures, the “author” and the “clerk.” The author and clerk sometimes spar and sometimes mirror one another in their ongoing arguments and conversations about the poet’s writing and the clerk’s duty to the unwritten record of what is left out of the archive. The structuring debate between the clerk, the archivist and keeper of bales of paper, and the author, the keeper of memory and experience, addresses the fact that in a Caribbean context, archival records are not so much historical evidence as they are remains and ruins of histories untold. Remnants, ruins, and wrecks, colonial archives entice artists and writers to do counter-archival work that dives into the wreck, that does the work Brand does inThe Blue Clerk, of what I call in this chapter, wreckognition.
Results: Aspects of Modern Foreign Language Teaching in Higher Education
Authors: Schauer Gila A. 
Published: December 2023

AbstractIn this chapter, I analyse the results of questions 1, 4, 5 and 6 on the survey about intercultural competence and pragmatics that was given to the language teachers; these relate directly to teaching, and were answered using a five-point Likert scale from very unimportant to very important. I begin with question 1: How important is it for you to teach the following skills and competencesin L2language teaching? This features nine skills and competences to be evaluated separately, mainly academic skills but also including pragmatic and intercultural aspects of teaching. I then discuss the findings of question 6: How important is it for you to teach the following language aspects when teaching a foreign language? This includes 19 items from acronyms and abbreviations to specific vocabulary, as well as some pragmatic items. Then I analyse the responses to question 4, which includes 16 items covering a variety of non-linguistic aspects: How important is it for you to teach the following facts/information about the countries and cultures in which the L2 is an official language or native language? Question 5 focuses on materials used in classes and features 11 items including texts on culture shock, study abroad and diversity issues.

Finally, we show how the Wilson line integrated correlator can be computed by the $$ \mathcal{N} $$
N

In particular, we reformulate previous matrix model computations by making use of recursion relations and Bessel kernels, providing a direct link with more general localization computations in $$ \mathcal{N} $$

Higher orders for cosmological phase transitions: a global study in a Yukawa model
Authors: Gould Oliver , Xie Cheng 
Published: December 2023

Abstract
We perform a state-of-the-art global study of the cosmological thermal histories of a simple Yukawa model, and find higher perturbative orders to be important for determining both the presence and strength of strong first-order phase transitions. Using high-temperature effective field theory, we calculate the free energy density of the model up to $$ \mathcal{O} $$
O
(y5T4), where y is the Yukawa coupling and T is the temperature. The locations of phase transitions are found using the results of lattice Monte-Carlo simulations, and the strength of first-order transitions are evaluated within perturbation theory, to 3-loop order. This is the first global study of any model at this order. Compared to a vanilla 1-loop analysis, accurate to $$ \mathcal{O} $$
O
(y2T4), reaching such accuracy enables on average a five-fold reduction in the relative uncertainty in the predicted critical temperature Tc, and an additional ∼ 50% strong first-order transitions with latent heat $$ L/{T}_c^4 $$

Crosscap contribution to late-time two-point correlators
Authors: Yan Cynthia 
Published: December 2023

Abstract
We show that in Jackiw-Teitelboim (JT) gravity, late-time two-point functions can get a leading non-decaying contribution from a spacetime with the topology of a Möbius strip (a disk with one crosscap). There is an interesting interplay between this contribution and the standard “plateau”. The two can add together or cancel, depending on topological weighting factors. We match this behavior to Random Matrix Theory (RMT) and the N mod 8 periodicity of Sachdev-Kitaev-Ye (SYK) results.
Medical Extended Reality in der digitalen Notfallmedizin
Authors: Sauter Thomas C. , Krummrey Gert , Hautz Wolf E. , Birrenbach Tanja 
Published: December 2023

Zusammenfassung
Hintergrund
Die Notfallmedizin steht vor der Herausforderung, mit begrenzten Ressourcen eine optimale Versorgung zu gewährleisten. Insbesondere in seltenen, aber kritischen Situationen (High-acuity-low-occurrence[HALO]-Situationen) ist fundiertes Fachwissen essenziell. Bisherige Ausbildungsansätze sind zeitlich begrenzt und ressourcenintensiv.

Ziel der Arbeit
Medical Extended Reality (MXR) bietet vielversprechende Lösungsansätze. Diese Arbeit gibt einen Einblick in die verschiedenen Bereiche von MXR und zeigt am Beispiel des HALO-MXR-Konzepts die Anwendung von MXR in der Notfallmedizin.

Ergebnisse und Diskussion
Die MXR umfasst Augmented Reality (AR), Virtual Reality (VR) und Mixed Reality (MR). Die AR überlagert die reale Welt mit digitalen Informationen, verbessert die Wahrnehmung und ermöglicht interaktive Elemente. Die VR erzeugt eine künstliche 3D-Umgebung, in die der Nutzer eintaucht. Die MR kombiniert reale und virtuelle Elemente. Die MXR bietet Vorteile wie ortsunabhängiges Lernen, virtuelle Betreuung und Skalierbarkeit. Sie kann jedoch bestehende Ausbildungsformate nicht ersetzen, sondern sollte in ein Gesamtkonzept eingebettet werden.
Das HALO-MXR-Konzept am Inselspital Bern beinhaltet E‑Learning, simulationsbasiertes Training in VR und den HALO-Assist-Support durch AR. Der HALO-Assist bietet rund um die Uhr AR-Unterstützung bei HALO-Prozeduren mit Kommunikation über Audio und Video mit eingeblendeten Annotationen und Flowcharts.

Schlussfolgerung
Die Integration von MXR in die Notfallmedizin verspricht eine effizientere Ressourcennutzung und erweiterte Trainingsmöglichkeiten. Das HALO-MXR-Konzept zeigt, wie MXR-simulationsbasiertes Training VR und AR effektiv kombiniert und die Anwendung von HALO-Prozeduren verbessert.

Abstract
Purpose
This article is the second in a two-part series aimed at exploring the spectrum of supratentorial intraventricular masses in children. In particular, this part delves into masses originating from cells of the ventricular lining, those within the septum pellucidum, and brain parenchyma cells extending into the ventricles. The aim of this series is to offer a comprehensive understanding of these supratentorial intraventricular masses, encompassing their primary clinical findings and histological definitions.

Methods
We conducted a review and analysis of relevant epidemiological data, the current genetics/molecular classifications as per the fifth edition of the World Health Organization (WHO) Classification of Tumors of the Central Nervous System (WHO CNS5), and imaging findings. Each supratentorial intraventricular mass was individually evaluated, with a detailed discussion on its clinical and histological features.

Results
This article covers a range of supratentorial intraventricular masses observed in children. These include colloid cysts, subependymal giant cell astrocytomas, ependymomas, gangliogliomas, myxoid glioneuronal tumors, central neurocytomas, high-grade gliomas, pilocytic astrocytomas, cavernous malformations, and other embryonal tumors. Each mass type is characterized both clinically and histologically, offering an in-depth review of their individual imaging characteristics.

Conclusion
The WHO CNS5 introduces notable changes, emphasizing the vital importance of molecular diagnostics in classifying pediatric central nervous system tumors. These foundational shifts have significant potential to impact management strategies and, as a result, the outcomes of intraventricular masses in children.
