Authors: Xavioer Sharon , Bethishou Laressa , Dintzner Madeline , Taheri Reza , Lewis Jelena 
Published: October 2023

AbstractThe United States faces several ongoing public health issues including the opioid epidemic. This article describes a new model aimed at providing a framework that incorporates the United Nations (UN) Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs) to develop pharmacy student leaders through education, experiences, and development of critical skills. This holistic approach can serve as an example methodology to equip future leaders across public health domains to tackle many of the critical problems we face today.
The Foggy Window: Passive Empathy and the Fight for Testimonial Reading in Neoliberal Higher Education
Authors: Weber Lauren 
Published: October 2023

AbstractThe concept of empathy and its value to literary studies is new and exciting and contentious. Megan Boler theorises the different kinds of empathy a reader might experience when engaging with a text and how these ‘kinds’ have important consequences both in and out of the classroom. ‘Passive empathy’ is argued to be risky because it has the potential to fetishise the pain of the other. Conversely, ‘testimonial reading’ offers the reader an opportunity to situate their cultural and social context in relation to the other and witness their experience rather than consume it. In this chapter, I explore Boler’s argument and her taxonomy of empathy to think through questions involving the empathetic exchange between reader and fiction, altruism and empathy, and the pedagogical goals of reading fiction in our neoliberal world.
Performing Empathy with Neoliberalism, or Kendall Jenner on the Streets, Thomas Gradgrind in the Sheets: A Response to Lauren Weber
Authors: Norman Pat 
Published: October 2023

AbstractThe literary imagination helps broaden our ethical horizon. Engaging that imagination through reading draws on politics and emotion, as exemplified in the pedagogical approaches of Martha Nussbaum and Megan Boler. Lauren Weber has noted that these practices can also become bound up in the demands of neoliberalism. I argue that neoliberalism encourages us to engage in a different form of ‘reading’: reading the text of the world as consumers. Ideas that threaten neoliberalism—such as empathy—are appropriated into its form of public pedagogy. However, these forms of ‘depoliticised’ politics can reveal the emptiness of neoliberal claims to be concerned with social justice. One such case is Pepsi’s ‘Live for Now’ campaign, which attempted to appropriate the imagery of Black Lives Matter and similar social movements. This chapter positions such thinned out readings of the world against forms of pedagogy that deal in affect, empathy, and uncanniness: practices that create room for thinking differently and ‘repoliticising’ education.
Students, Biopolitics, and State Racism: A Response to Ren-Hao Xu
Authors: Low Remy Y. S. 
Published: October 2023

AbstractIn this response, I offer a brief addendum to Ren-Hao Xu’s chapter on Foucault and biopolitics. I will do this by joining together two seemingly unrelated points he raised: the first is personal, where he mentions reading Foucault on biopolitics in the shadow of the COVID-19 pandemic and the shutdown of Australia’s international borders, and the second is his key argument that higher education enrolment can be linked not only to individual employability, but also to the larger purpose of underwriting the social order and prosperity at the level of the population, thus legitimating sovereignty. For me as a teacher in higher education, a question that arises for me as I reflect on my work is this: Who is this ‘population’ that is to be educated, whose productivity is accounted for within the calculus of national competitiveness, whose life is to be fostered for the sake of securing the nation’s future, and who is not a part of this? This raises another aspect of Foucault’s conceptualisation of biopolitics: the operation of state ‘racism’ as a dividing principle for determining those who are worth ‘making live’ and those who not and that it can hence ‘let die’.
Dialogues Between Activist Knowledge and Southern Theory
Authors: Serrano-Amaya José Fernando 
Published: October 2023

AbstractWhile academia is usually represented in public culture as the most common place for knowledge production, activism is seen more as direct action but less as a source of knowledge in its own right. This chapter troubles those separations using examples from theory and personal experience. Many areas of struggle for social justice and social change have challenged those separations, highlighting the politics that create hierarchies and divisions in knowledge production and suggesting several interconnections. Connell’s “Southern Theory” opens the possibility to reflect on the role of knowledge produced for activist purposes as a kind of knowledge project that is both useful for social struggles and for theory development. These projects operate as interpellation of the politics of not knowing that ignore the issues that are the matter for activism. They also intend to produce knowledge that is useful and makes justice to social struggles. Besides, activist knowledge as a knowledge project challenges power relations by giving those in subordinated positions the possibility to connect in unexpected ways. If the idea is to trouble separations, we need to invent other dialogues between academia and activism, theory and practice and the Global North and the Global South.
The Good University Examined: A Response to Meenakshi Krishnaraj, Ren-Hao Xu, and Pat Norman
Authors: Connell Raewyn 
Published: October 2023

AbstractIn her response to Meenakshi Krishnaraj, Ren-Hao Xu, and Pat Norman on The good university (2019), Raewyn Connell begins by offering some biographical background to her writing of the text. She then engages with each of the authors of the chapter on The good university, specifically the forces driving change in the work culture of higher education institutions as described by Norman, the alternative models of higher education and modes of teaching in India’s past and present raised by Krishnaraj, and the relationship between research and politics in Taiwanese history recounted by Xu. Along the way, Connell demonstrates two important points of about social theory. First, that while scholarly writing is valued for its tidiness and abstraction, social theories usually arise from authors’ and social groups’ lived and messy struggles. Second, that while the form of scholarly publications (e.g., books, journal articles) suggests a ‘finished’ quality to theories, as experiments in thought and imagination theories evolve and change, and do so through a continuing process of dialogue.
Extending the thermodynamic form factor bootstrap program: multiple particle-hole excitations, crossing symmetry, and reparameterization invariance
Authors: Panfil Miłosz , Konik Robert M. 
Published: October 2023

Abstract
In this study, we further the thermodynamic bootstrap program which involves a set of recently developed ideas used to determine thermodynamic form factors of local operators in integrable quantum field theories. These form factors are essential building blocks for dynamic correlation functions at finite temperatures or non-equilibrium stationary states. In this work we extend this program in three ways. Firstly, we demonstrate that the conjectured annihilation pole axiom is valid in the low energy particle-hole excitations. Secondly, we introduce a crossing relation, which establishes a connection between form factors with different excitation content. Typically, the crossing relation is a consequence of Lorentz invariance, but due to the finite energy density of the considered states, Lorentz invariance is broken. Nonetheless a crossing relation involving excitations with both particles and holes can established using the finite volume representation of the thermodynamic form factors. Finally, we demonstrate that the thermodynamic form factors satisfy a reparameterization invariance, an invariance which encompasses crossing. Reparameterization invariance exploits the fact that the details of the representation of the thermodynamic state are unimportant. In the course of developing these results, we demonstrate the internal consistency of the thermodynamic form factor bootstrap program in a number of ways. Finally, we provide explicit computations of form factors of conserved charges and densities with crossed excitations and show our results can be used to infer information about thermodynamic form factors in the Lieb-Liniger model.
Vergleich von Diagnosedaten nach der Einführung des Mukoviszidosescreenings bei Neugeborenen in Deutschland
Authors: Nährlich Lutz , Brockow Inken 
Published: October 2023

Zusammenfassung
Hintergrund
Zum 01.09.2016 wurde das Neugeborenenscreening (NGS) auf Mukoviszidose (Cystic Fibrosis – CF) in Deutschland eingeführt. Bisher gibt es keinen epidemiologischen Goldstandard für die Erfassung der Diagnosezahlen. Daher werden Daten der in der Konfirmationsdiagnostik bestätigten Fälle der Deutschen Gesellschaft für Neugeborenenscreening (DGNS) und die Diagnosehäufigkeiten des Deutschen Mukoviszidoseregisters (DMR) gegenübergestellt. Dies kann auch die Evaluation des CF-Screenings unterstützen. Ziel der Arbeit ist es, die Daten der DGNS und des DMR zu vergleichen und Limitationen sowie Stärken dieser Datenquellen darzustellen.

Methoden
Analysiert werden die Mukoviszidose-Diagnosedaten der DGNS (Datenstand 14.04.2023) und des DMR (Datenstand 12.04.2023) für 2017–2021 geborene Kinder im Hinblick auf Häufigkeiten, Anzahl falsch-negativ Gescreenter und Verhältnis CF zu „Fällen mit positivem Mukoviszidosescreening und unklarer Konfirmationsdiagnostik“ (CFSPID).

Ergebnisse
Der DGNS liegen 767 Datensätze von Neugeborenen mit CF/CFSPID vor, dem DMR 910 bestätigte Diagnosefälle CF/CFSPID. Ein falsch-negatives Screening wird von der DGNS für 37/767 (4,8 %) und vom DMR für 49/910 (5,4 %) berichtet. Das Verhältnis von CF zu CFSPID beträgt 17,4:1 (DGNS, 2017–2020) bzw. 28,1:1 (DMR).

Diskussion
Die DGNS und das DMR liefern bei unterschiedlichen Stärken in der Dokumentation der Screening-(DGNS) und Diagnosedaten (DMR) wichtige Anhaltspunkte für die Anzahl neu diagnostizierter Mukoviszidosepatienten nach Einführung des NGS. Gesetzliche Vorgaben zur Nachverfolgung der Gescreenten und Erfassung aller Kinder mit Mukoviszidose sowie der Datenaustausch zwischen DGNS und DMR könnten zukünftig die Evaluation verbessern.
Numerical treatment of reactive diffusion using the discontinuous Galerkin method
Authors: Flachberger Wolfgang , Svoboda Jiri , Antretter Thomas , Petersmann Manuel , Leitner Silvia 
Published: October 2023

AbstractThis work presents a new finite element variational formulation for the numerical treatment of diffusional phase transformations using the discontinuous Galerkin method (DGM). Steep concentration and property gradients near phase boundaries require particular focus on a sound numerical treatment. There are different ways to tackle this problem ranging from (i) the well-known phase field method (PFM) (Biner et al. in Programming phase-field modeling, Springer, Berlin, 2017, Emmerich in The diffuse interface approach in materials science: thermodynamic concepts and applications of phase-field models, Springer, Berlin, 2003), where the interface is described continuously to (ii) methods that allow sharp transitions at phase boundaries, such as reactive diffusion models (Svoboda and Fischer in Comput Mater Sci 127:136–140, 2017, 78:39–46, 2013, Svoboda et al. in Comput Mater Sci 95:309–315, 2014). Phase transformation problems with continuous property changes can be implemented using the continuous Galerkin method (GM). Sharp interface models, however, lead to stability problems with the GM. A method that is able to treat the features of sharp interface models is the discontinuous Galerkin method. This method is well understood for regular diffusion problems (Cockburn in ZAMM J Appl Math Mech 83(11):731–754, 2003). As will be shown, it is also particularly well suited to model phase transformations. We discuss the thermodynamic background by review of a multi-phase, binary system. A new DGM formulation for the phase transformation problem with sharp interfaces is then introduced. Finally, the derived method is used in a 2D microstructural evolution simulation that features a binary, three-phase system that also takes the vacancy mechanism of solid body diffusion into account.
Job expectations and financial fragility: evidence from pre-COVID Spain
Authors: Álvarez-Espiño Marcos , Fernández-López Sara , Rey-Ares Lucía 
Published: October 2023

AbstractPrevious research has related household financial fragility (FF) and the employment status of the household members by focusing only on the labour income channel. In contrast, the literature has scarcely addressed the study of this relationship from a psychological perspective that could be related to the theory of bounded rationality. This article aims to analyse how job expectations relate to the level of household FF. Using a sample of 8554 Spanish individuals in the period 2016–2017, we construct a multidimensional index of household FF. The results indicate that households with unemployed, self-employed, or part-time workers have higher levels of FF, but the job expectations of the household and the individual play an even more important role in the level of the FF. These findings suggest that the perception of labour market uncertainty may influence the level of household FF to a greater extent than the objective employment situations of the individuals.

AbstractA sedentary lifestyle affects the diversity and composition of the gut microbiota, but previous studies have mainly focused on bacteria instead of fungi. Here, we compared both the fecal bacterial and fungal microbiota compositions and functions in sedentary persons and controls. Subjects from the China Railway Corporation, including 99 inspectors and 88 officials, were enrolled in our study. Fecal microbiota communities were analyzed using 16S rRNA gene sequencing for bacteria and ITS sequencing for fungi. We found that the diversity of the gut microbiota of the sedentary group was significantly lower than that of the control group (P < 0.05). The sedentary group had a higher abundance of Firmicutes, a lower abundance of Actinobacteria and Proteobacteria and a higher abundance of Ascomycota, and a lower abundance of Basidiomycota. Furthermore, functional prediction analysis of the fungal microbiota revealed more L-tryptophan degradation to 2-amino-3-carboxymuconate semialdehyde, more phospholipid remodeling (phosphatidylethanolamine, yeast), and more L-tyrosine degradation I, as well as less pentose phosphate pathway (non-oxidative branch), less adenosine nucleotide biosynthesis and less L-valine biosynthesis in the sedentary group (P < 0.05). Thus, a sedentary lifestyle changes the composition and function of the gut microbiota. It may change the pentose phosphate pathway (non-oxidative branch), nucleic acid and amino acid biosynthesis and phospholipid metabolism in fungi.

Abstract
Background
The novel pulsed thulium:yttrium–aluminum–garnet (p-Tm:YAG) laser was recently introduced. Current studies present promising p-Tm:YAG ablation efficiency, although all are based on non-human stone models or with unknown stone composition. The present study aimed to evaluate p-Tm:YAG ablation efficiency for stone dust from human urinary stones of known compositions.

Methods
Calcium oxalate monohydrate (COM) and uric acid (UA) stones were subjected to lithotripsy in vitro using a p-Tm:YAG laser generator (Thulio®, Dornier MedTech GmbH, Germany). 200 J was applied at 0.1 J × 100 Hz, 0.4 J × 25 Hz or 2.0 J × 5 Hz (average 10W). Ablated stone dust mass was calculated from weight difference between pre-lithotripsy stone and post-lithotripsy fragments > 250 µm. Estimated ablated volume was calculated using prior known stone densities (COM: 2.04 mg/mm3, UA: 1.55 mg/mm3).

Results
Mean ablation mass efficiency was 0.04, 0.06, 0.07 mg/J (COM) and 0.04, 0.05, 0.06 mg/J (UA) for each laser setting, respectively. This translated to 0.021, 0.029, 0.034 mm3/J (COM) and 0.026, 0.030, 0.039 mm3/J (UA). Mean energy consumption was 26, 18, 17 J/mg (COM) and 32, 23, 17 J/mg (UA). This translated to 53, 37, 34 J/mm3 (COM) and 50, 36, 26 J/mm3 (UA). There were no statistically significant differences for laser settings or stone types (all p > 0.05).

Conclusion
To our knowledge, this is the first study showing ablation efficiency of the p-Tm:YAG laser for stone dust from human urinary stones of known compositions. The p-Tm:YAG seems to ablate COM and UA equally well, with no statistically significant differences between differing laser settings.
Financial Causality Extraction Based on Universal Dependencies and Clue Expressions
Authors: Sakaji Hiroki , Izumi Kiyoshi 
Published: October 2023

AbstractThis paper proposes a method to extract financial causal knowledge from bi-lingual text data. Domain-specific causal knowledge plays an important role in human intellectual activities, especially expert decision making. Especially, in the financial area, fund managers, financial analysts, etc. need causal knowledge for their works. Natural language processing is highly effective for extracting human-perceived causality; however, there are two major problems with existing methods. First, causality relative to global activities must be extracted from text data in multiple languages; however, multilingual causality extraction has not been established to date. Second, technologies to extract complex causal structures, e.g., nested causalities, are insufficient. We consider that a model using universal dependencies can extract bi-lingual and nested causalities can be established using clues, e.g., “because” and “since.” Thus, to solve these problems, the proposed model extracts nested causalities based on such clues and universal dependencies in multilingual text data. The proposed financial causality extraction method was evaluated on bi-lingual text data from the financial domain, and the results demonstrated that the proposed model outperformed existing models in the experiment.

Published: October 2023

Abstract
Introduction
To ensure a high-quality standard, it is important to frequently evaluate different prostheses models to avoid prostheses with high failure rates. Thus, the aim of the study was to evaluate the long-term outcome of the uncemented titanium-coated total knee arthroplasty (TKA) system (Advanced Coated System (ACS) III, Implantcast, GERMANY). We hypothesized that the ACS III would have a similar performance as other cemented TKA systems.

Materials and methods
A total of 540 ACS III mobile-bearing knee joint prostheses were implanted in 495 patients. The visual analogue scale (VAS) score, Tegner activity score (TAS), knee society score (KSS), Western Ontario and McMaster (WOMAC) score, and the Short Form 12 (SF-12) score for the evaluation of quality of life (QoL) were taken after at least 9 years of follow-up. In addition, we measured range of motion (ROM) and assessed potential sex differences. In addition, the survival analysis was calculated at a median follow-up of 16.7 years.

Results
At the final follow-up, 142 patients had died, and 38 had been lost to follow-up. The rate of revision-free implant survival at 16.7 years was 90.0% (95% CI 87.1–92.2%) and the rate of infection-free survival was 97.0% (IQR 95.2–98.2%). The reasons for revision surgery were aseptic loosening (32.9%), followed by infection (27.1%), inlay exchange (15.9%), and periprosthetic fractures (5.7%). At the clinical follow-up visit, the mean VAS score was 1.9 ± 1.9, the median TAS was 3 (IQR 2–4), and the mean KSS for pain and function were 83.5 ± 15.3 and 67.5 ± 25.2, respectively. The mean WOMAC score was 81.1 ± 14.9, and the median SF-12 scores for physical and mental health were 36.9 (IQR 29.8–45.1) and 55.8 (IQR 46.2–61.0), respectively. The mean knee flexion was 102.0° ± 15.4°. Male patients had better clinical outcome scores than female patients [SF-12 mental health score, p = 0.037; SF-12 physical health score, p = 0.032; KSS pain score (p < 0.001), and KSS functional score (p < 0.001)].

Conclusion
The ACS III TKA system is a suitable option for the treatment of end-stage osteoarthritis of the knee joint because of its adequate long-term survival. Our findings are in line with published data on similar TKA systems that have shown favourable clinical scores in males.

High intake of ultra-processed food is associated with dementia in adults: a systematic review and meta-analysis of observational studies
Authors: Henney Alex E. , Gillespie Conor S. , Alam Uazman , Hydes Theresa J. , Mackay Clare E. , Cuthbertson Daniel J. 
Published: October 2023

Abstract
Background and aims
Poor cardiometabolic health is associated with dementia. Considering previous meta-analyses have confirmed associations between ultra-processed foods (UPFs) and cardiometabolic disease, we were interested in the contribution of UPF consumption to the risk of developing dementia.

Methods
We performed a systematic review and meta-analysis of all records registered on Ovid Medline and Web of Science from inception until December 2022 [PROSPERO (CRD42023388363)]. Studies that assessed UPF consumption in adults, determined according to NOVA, and that reported dementia (Alzheimer’s disease, vascular dementia and mild cognitive impairment) determined by clearly stated diagnostic criteria (including formal assessment of dementia or use of diagnostic codes) were included. The association between UPF consumption and dementia was assessed using random-effects meta-analysis, controlling for confounding variables. Study quality was assessed using the Newcastle Ottawa Scale and evidence credibility evaluated using the NutriGrade system.

Results
Seven thousand ten records were screened, and 122 records underwent full text review. From these, 10 observational (8 longitudinal) studies, analysing 867,316 individuals, were included. Included studies adjusted for age, socioeconomic status and co-morbidity, alongside other confounders. High (vs. low) intake of UPF was associated with increased risk of dementia (pooled relative risk 1.44 (95% confidence interval 1.09–1.90) (p = 0.02)) (I2 = 97.0%), although moderate (vs. low) intake of UPF was not (1.12 (0.96–1.31) (0.13)) (85.0%). Funnel plots demonstrate low risk of publication bias.

Conclusion
High UPF consumption is associated with dementia. Public health measures to reduce overconsumption of UPFs are imperative to reduce the burden of dementia.
